Imperio de mentiras, #73, Wednesday, 01/13/21 "The walls are closing in"

 During their pillow talk with JLow Adriana spills the beans about Sonia, saying that she’s at her place and there is only a guy guarding the door. JLow wants to run to get her, but Adriana still has questions. Why is he working for Eww? JLow mentions needing money for Leslie’s treatment, but Adriana knows this is a lie, since Leslie has only been sick for a few capitulos. He insists he always did it to protect his daughter. Now he’s in a hurry, they need to get to Sonia.

It finally downs on Adriana that he is using her. JLow points out that she’s a big girl, he never forced her. He asks for her forgiveness, says that he loves her and he’s in her hands. Adriana wants to know about all his dirty dealings with Eww. JLow asks if she’s sure, will she then do her cop duty? (The patio would like to know if she still remembers that she’s a cop.)

Clara calls as Carlos is trying to get Leslie to wake up. He tells her what is going on and asks her to come to his house. He hangs up before giving her the address, but Leslie comes to. She’s not looking great.

Eww has just explained to Fab the “rules of the game”. Fab says he has been covering for him, but it’s a question of time before Elisa knows everything.  Eww is no longer in charge, he can no longer trick everyone. Eww thinks he can go on as long as he wants. And he gives his son an ultimatum: “You’re with me or against me.”

Elisa gets home, asking for her sisters. Martha explains they are both in their rooms, as Vic arrives. Ren called her so she goes up to see her. When she allows her in the room, Vic urges Ren to control herself because she is ruining everything. Ren explains that Majo stole her ultrasound, wants to steal her baby (Sonia’s baby). Nobody has to find out, Vic screams at her. Ren remembers how she told Mau about it and Vic suspects she already told someone. Ren has enough self-control to deny it.

Fab is with Dario. He says his hands are tied, there is nothing legal they can do about Eww right now. Dario laughs, thinks they are both the same. They’ll both end up in jail. The first time he decided to kill Eww he was 15, he wanted to defend his mother. Fab says he suffered, too, so Dario gives him the best solution to everyone’s problems:  kill Eww.

Leo gets home; Tere is looking for JLow, thinks he’s acting strange, but she won’t share too much, asks Leo to talk to JLow. Leo insists, Tere says she is probably imagining things, forget about it. She leaves just as Leo’s phone rings. It’s Mario, telling him that Sonia has been taken by the fiscalia general. Cristina will let them know where she is.

Leslie is now dressed, says earlier her extreme happiness made her faint. Carlos says he loves her, admits he was worried.

Majo explains to Elisa what happened with Ren, wonders if she’s just too sick, suggests getting her in the hospital again. Vic shows up saying that she gave Ren a sedative, but what made her react like this? Majo has no clue, she just got crazy. Vic defends Ren, she’s not crazy anymore. Majo is shocked, that’s not what mom was saying when Ren was pushing her down the stairs. Vic doesn’t understand this change in attitude, she thinks maybe Elisa and Majo are the crazy ones, and spoiled, too. She asks again what happened between the two, what was that hidden ultrasound? Is Majo pregnant?

Juanito is drawing, while Fab is looking on, remembering Dario’s words that they will end up the same if he doesn’t kill Eww. Fer asks if he’s OK, Fab admits that he lost, he did it all bad, he got involved in Eww’s game. We can get away, Fer suggests. Let’s go away with the money, we can start over. Fab thinks he’d be an obstacle, his name is in all the manufactured documents. There is a way, Fer offers, but he has to sacrifice Elisa. Fab won’t do it, even as Fer says that Elisa will never look at him and she was in charge when the dirty dealings started.

JLow is telling Adriana how it all begun: he was investigating Tapioca, he found proof against him, but the guy had a lot of connections. Flashback to a car pulling him over one night. It’s Dario and some goons, they mention Leslie. They say they could kill JLow, but he’s more valuable alive for now. JLow asks what he has to do. Dario shows him a bunch of money. “Take it and shut up.” 

Then he started sending JLow photos of Leslie, following her all over, so he panicked. What could he do? Adriana wants to know how far he went. Does he realize he’s been working for the guy who destroyed his brother’s life? Who killed Julia? She also realizes that’s why he didn’t want Leo involved, because he would have realized the truth. JLow can’t talk any longer, he can’t let Sonia testify. “Will you kill her?” Adriana asks. “You can still save yourself, who killed Julia?” She insists to know.  She tries to stop him from leaving, he pulls his gun. “Shoot me, I can’t be your accomplice,” she says.

Victoria and Elisa are arguing. Victoria can’t allow for Majo to be tied to a delinquent forever. Elisa can talk to her, advise her that she can’t keep the pregnancy, it will ruin her life. Elisa says that she tried to talk to Majo about Dario, but she won’t hear of it. She, on the other hand, will help her sister, it’s her body and her life. Victoria insists this is crazy and she won’t allow it to happen.  

Leo is arguing with his boss, Cristina shouldn’t have taken his witness. The man explains that it wasn’t Cristina, it was someone bigger, the fiscal general. Everything is related to JLow, who is being investigated. Leo doesn’t get it, his brother has been helping them a lot. Sonia was taken to be protected from JLow, the boss explains. Since all of them are connected to him, Sonia was not safe around them. (Finally someone saying something sensible).

Leslie goes to the doctor’s, tells him she’s feeling very bad. He will give her a blood transfusion and some vitamin. The disease is accelerating. “How much longer?” Leslie asks. How old is this child and why is the doctor dealing with her and not her parents?

Elisa explains to Renata that Majo wanted to keep her pregnancy a secret, but she’s worried about this outburst. Ren says she’s not thinking straight, she thought it was her baby’s ultrasound, but she didn’t want to hurt Majo. Elisa will talk to the doc about her treatment. Ren agrees, wants to apologize to Majo. She is happy there will be a baby. Elisa leaves, Ren goes to get her teddy bear. When Majo comes to the room, Ren apologizes, says she loves her and she will love the baby. Gives Majo the teddy bear. Says she loves her sisters. Gets down, hugs the belly. Who is crazier in this house?

Vic and Eww talk about Ren’s crisis. She tells him about the pregnancy. Congrats, Abuelo! How ironic! “How will we solve this? We can’t do it the same as we did with Renata!” You think??? “Dario needs to have the same fate as Marc. Matalo!” Leo, watch out! Victoria has a bloody solution for all of her daughters’ significant others.

JL and Adriana arrive at her apartment, but Sonia is not there. He thinks Adriana’s playing with him, but she insists she has no clue what is going on.  Who does at this point? JLow thinks she’s lying, asks who else knew that she was there. Only Leo. But Adriana thinks it’s better like this, isn’t he tired? Sonia will say everything that she knows. JLow wants to know if Adriana will talk, too.

Elisa leaves a message on Leo’s phone, she’s waiting for him. She gets the video of Cristina and Leo kissing. Then Cristina calls Elisa. What a pathetic excuse of a human being, how does it feel to have such a miserable life? Elisa wonders. Cristina reminds Elisa she didn’t keep her promise, so Leo will have no suffer.

Leslie gets home with Clara, Tere questions her. Leslie covers, but she’s looking very bad. She had a lovely day, one she will never forget.  

Majo and Elisa are chatting. Majo guesses that mom is indignadisima, wants her to give up the baby. Elisa won’t tell her what to do, but she’s worried, what father will Dario be from jail? Majo is sure he will get out, his lawyers are working on it. And if not, he will break out, and they will be together. “Is this what you want for you and your baby, to be on the run?” Elisa asks. Majo thanks her for the tough love. Who is crazier, she or Ren?

JLow has taken Adriana to a hut. She is handcuffed, he asks her to sit down. Her phone rings, she says she needs to answer. He checks the phone, it’s Leo, he writes him a message. Then Leo calls him. He takes the call outside, Leo says they need to talk, everything is getting messy. Cristina has taken Sonia to protect her from you, they are investigating you. JLow asks for an hour, al rato te veo, campeon!

He fills Adriana in, she repeats that it’s game over for him!

Leo asks Mario about the investigation into JLow, then sees Cristina, demands an explanation. She says he will have an answer soon. He better search for Adriana, she is probably in danger, she is JLow’s lover and everyone around him is in danger right now.

Open your eyes,” Cristina says, “he is guilty of all your problems.” Leo’s droopy eyes look almost awake.

Good Morning from the Alamo City.

Adriana: Good Job on the recap of last night's episode. I see that WEAKLING Adriana ratted out Sonia, but it seems Cristina has taken Sonia out of Adriana's apartment.

Leo finally figures out JL is involved in illegal dealings.

Big question is whether Leo & Mario will rescue Adriana ?
 

Formerly, thank you thank you. Before I even finish, I want to say, I caught myself trying to high five my TV last night. OK time for coffee and a good read.
 

Wowzers, Thank you Formerly: How did you keep up with all this hopping around? But glad you did. We, en masse tried and tried to warn Adri. She is now in a barnyard birthing hut in the middle of nowhere with a horny murderer. You go girl. You popo sure know how to kick back when you are off duty.

It certainly looks like Cris saved Sonia's life. You just have to wonder if it was actually intentional or just sort of a by product though, knowing her. I am kinda enjoying watching her stick it too droopy sappy E-lies-a-lot. If she is as stupid as she has shown herself to be, she should not be mucking around in any activity which might produce offspring anyway. The Can'tDo gene pool needs to go the way of the dinosaurs.

Poor little Leslie. I don't know why they had to throw that story line into this mess. It is just heartbreaking watching her struggle through her last days hoping for her evil parent's happiness.

"
Big question is whether Leo & Mario will rescue Adriana ?" I vote that those two will 'recover the body'. JLow will prolly make a lover's suicide pact with Adri and shoot her then himself.

I am still trying to think of a way for Icky Vicky Vicious to die. In Medieval times they seemed to have lots of excruciating ways to do it. Boiled in oil, the stretching machine, Room full of hungry rats, but none of those really seem to fill the bill with her. I am still researching it.

"Who is crazier in this house?" Good One Formerly. My thoughts exactly. Like Fruit: Tree:

And this was sage advice also: "Leo, watch out! Victoria has a bloody solution for all of her daughters’ significant others."

" Leo’s droopy eyes look almost awake. " EXACTLY ! Thank You Formerly.

 

You conveyed all the taut drama perfectly Adriana...

"The disease is accelerating. “How much longer?” Leslie asks". Your few powerful words captured this heartache masterfully. Leslie lives to see another day, death delayed to pave the way for excruciating agony. Well done writers.

So now yet another unborn child's life is in danger. Icky, who is the most col dhearted, vengeful beyotch imaginable, recycles her murderous plan to rid herself of another grandchild. And the child's father. Can't the writers come up with anything other than recycling this horrid plot line? They've already proven they are incapable of concocting fresh ideas - rhetorical I know. They can't even keep what they've written straight, seemingly unable/unwilling to clean up the many loose, dangling ends. Well done writers.

Was Renata's ramped up craziness a plot device solely to reveal Majo's pregnancy?

Are we to believe ANY of JLouse's "flashbacks" OR anything he says??

Do we really know who has Sonia?

"There is a way, Fer offers, but he has to sacrifice Elisa. Fab won’t do it...". You can't fix stupid.

Is their any sanity in the three sisters? Freewheeling, abundant and frightening craziness.

I can't even imagine what's next. Trying to keep up is demanding in and of itself. I'm so grateful to you Adriana and the other recappers and our sharp commenters who never fail to enlighten and explain the events something the writers have failed so miserably to do.

Diana
 

"... She is now in a barnyard birthing hut in the middle of nowhere with a horny murderer". Kirby, that was great.

"It certainly looks like Cris saved Sonia's life. You just have to wonder if it was actually intentional or just sort of a by product though...". Being on square one, I didn't even attempt to capture any thoughts on who Cris is and what her intentions are. She is also tinged with craziness but honestly, is there anyone in this who isn't??? It would be nice if she did rescue her by design rather than accident.

Diana





 

Adriana, thank you so much for your detailed account of all the wickedness.

A., Well, you just helped your caveman Amor JL move the sofa (yuck) ,and now in the afterglow , he's holding a gun on you. Love is blind ...and foolish. Why is she attracted to this whiny, weepy hulk?

Now, the Feds have Sonia , the hot potato.

Ren holding that teddy bear behind her back and then presenting it to Mojo gave me a lump in my throat. Triste.

This sad, strung out storyline with Leslie is painful to watch, but I must say that this young actress is doing an unbelievable job selling it. Why did they cast such a tiny person as the offspring of two big parents ? Maybe because the actress is so good.

Onward we go. I have absolutely no idea how this will all end of what will happen to each OF The characters , but there are a bunch of wicked people who deserve anvils . We will have to wait and see how the writers decide to end this tale of lying liars who lie and the people they are lying to.
 

What is disappointing is that we are this close to the end and we STILL do not have Evil Vic and Evil Ewww squirming in agony or at least in the realization that 'The walls are closing in".

Are these writers simply going to drop a couple of marshmallow anvils on these snakes two minutes before the closing credits?

A decent TN would have these two begin to see their lies and crimes come home to roost and despite their most determined efforts to put out the fires, their world continues to burn down around them.
 

Susanlynn: The Feds might have Sonia for the moment, but that's not going to stop Creepy Eugenio from having her whacked if she starts talking & singing like a bird.

Kirby: I hope Adriana doesn't die in some disturbing murder-suicide pact with JL. We're going to find out in a few HRS IF Leo & Mario can rescue Adriana (whom I predicted would cave & rat out Sonia's location).


 

I forgot to watch last night so haven't read more than the first sentence or two and I cannot wait to catch up. enticing title, Adriana Noel.
 

AdrianaN, many, many thanks! And A belated thank you to Jardinera for her outstanding recap yesterday.

Cris was not the one who took Sonia. Mario told Leo that Cris called him to tell him that Sonia had been taken and would be needing protection. When Leo wondered why Cris was involved, Mario explained that it wasn't Cris who took her; it was the "fiscalia general" who took her. (Attorney General office which is the branch where Olvera, Leo's boss, works) Cris will let Mario know when she finds out where they took Sonia. JLow, Sonia and Mario work at the district attorney's office.

I really hate what they are doing to Ren; she was our ray of hope and they've turned her back into crazy puddy.

Diana, "Are we to believe ANY of JLouse's "flashbacks" OR anything he says??" I would ask, "Are we to believe any of the flashbacks and OR anything anyone says." Lying is second nature to all these "lying liars who lie."
 

RGV: "JLow, Sonia and Mario work at the district attorney's office." Sonia too? I thought she was a stripper. Ha great cover, she even fooled me!

J Kidding, I assumed you meant AdriNoBrain.
 

Yeah, Kirby, I meant Adri. Too many characters to keep straight in my aging brain :-/
 

So if the Feds took Sonia from Adri's house and Cris didn't give her to them, how did they know she was there, as Ewww, JL, and the rest of the denizens of Hell could not find her?

I suppose I am over-thinking this. That's what we do.
 

I don't think writers of current tv shows and movies like to write about heroes and heroines ..exception is the Marvel universe of superheroes. I like to see the good guys working together to outsmart the evil folks, but none of these characters seem capable of working together to figure things out and bring down the bad guys. I don't like to see the bad guys escape to continue to go merrily along their evil way. There is none so blind as he that will not see.

Wow...Icky Really does not want to be an abuela !
 

"Lying is second nature to all these "lying liars who lie." Excellent Rgv Chick. I did not realize Adri, JLouse and Mario worked at the DA's office, so thanks for noting that.

I've admitted I can't keep track. Could Mario also have known Sonia was at Adris? Maybe he told the Feds, playing dumb and is actually one step ahead of Cris?

Diana
 

Kirby, " how did they know she was there..." they looked into their crystal ball? They rubbed the lantern and the genie led them there? They blinded one of the agents and had him pin the location tail on the map? :-D
 

SusyQ what gets me about icky vicky
Is that she is desiding to kill his child like they did marcelo. And the bitch wants to kill another one of her grand children. What the hell is wrong with this heffa and that small troll she is attracted to?

Thank you AdrianaN for the detailed
Recap of last nights tawdry episode
These people are getting crazier and crazier. I hate what they've done to renata and leslie. Its like they are taking hope away from the ones who would come out on top.
Vicky and that troll with that bad
Constantly bad hair day should not walk away from this. That beach house he bought for her with the money he stole from her and the 3
Puppies should be blown up with them in it. They think nothing of killing anyone who they deam not worthy of living any longer. What the hell is wrong with these people
In the writing booth? It's like they're tryin to make 2021 out do
2020. They're doing a pretty good job of it with this tn starting the year off with this tn. Continued from last year that is.

Kirby, Iam still trying to think of a way for Icky Vicky vicious to die In medieval times they seem to have lots of excruciating ways to do it, boiled in oil, the stretching machine, room full of hungry rats. but none of these really seem to fill the bill with her. I am still researching it. Well kirby that probly wouldn't work with her, shed
Just scare the hell out of the rats
And drive the executioner crazy with demanding the oil have a skin
Softener in it. The woman is crazy, I wouldnt put it pass her. You see
How she is with the troll of her heart, shes a demanding bitch. Not only leo should watch out fab had better to, cuz he's hung up on El.

Dario told fab to kill daddy troll,
If hes gonna do it(he wont)he needs
To get movin. I would rather see
Dario out of the poky than to see ewgy and icky walkin around free makin everybody miserable. He is the lesser of to devils I choose D
Over ewgy hands down. I still think there could be hope for him. And let's face it everybody on this show is tainted, some are...maybe redeemable and Some ain't. Icky n the troll is at the top of the list of those that ain't. They do not deserve good English.

Thank Adriana.
 

Hey, Nina, do you think the writers are going to drop anvils on the wicked ones , or will we see some escape and ride off into the sunset ?
 

So dario is 30 to 35 or so it seems, amd he has been wanting to kill Rug with a turd on it since he was fifteen? Been dreaming of killing Ewww for 15 or 20 years?

So, like, when ya gonna get around to it son?

Prolly better chance of Vicky Vicious killing him than snarling scowling pissed off all the time Mouth from the dungeon Dario.
 

Dario is a big talker. If the writers ever actually drop a real anvil in a villain, we will know that they have been lurking at caray.
 

They could learn a lot here. It would be like TN Writer Boot Camp @ Caray.
 

SusyQ there is wicked and there is
Uber wicked. I think something much
Heavier than an anvil is needed here. They are reflecting the times
We are living in. Evil at it purest
Embodied in icky and the troll. There is enough nastiness to go around but these two are the most nastiest of the whole lot. I wish something would drop on those miscreants.
