Papas
I’m just getting ready to watch Papas but I thought I should let you know that my siblings and a couple of their family are coming in Wednesday through Sunday. I won’t be able to watch Papas while they’re here. I’m going to try to watch the three I miss before next Monday’s show but I won’t have time to recap. I can probably write of anything big that happens, but I’m not very fast at recapping.

Papas #63 part 1
Four years ago is when the split happened. I couldn’t figure out where Lila was going but Tino said Berta would go with her so she wouldn’t be alone. Tino said this was the convinent thing to do, and Lila wondered convenient for who, Aide? Lila might as well leave, no one would miss her.
Today, Tino is trying to talk to Lila. It seems she’s been gone 3 years. She doesn’t want to hear what Tino has to say, or Pauline. Tino says Bill is using her to get even with him and Aide. She tells both Barney’s to leave, and Bill echoes her feelings.
Facundo and Checo are talking in the park.Facundo says it’s been difficult since he got out. He asks if Checo works in the park. Checo tells him this is where his photography show was a year ago. And the tragedy happened to his mother a year ago. Facundo tells him how nice is mother was to him when he went through his trouble. Checo tells him how hard it still is and Facundo tells him to always keep her in his heart. Facundo thinks back to walking with Lichita in the park. She is talking about not having a job. She wonders if El Chacal is still bothering him. He tells her he wants him to help with a robbery. Lichita wants him to denounce El Chacal but he says the police are on his side. Lichita says there must be some honest cops. His phone beeps. El Chacal has sent a picture he just took of the two of them. He says do the job or it will be Lichita that pays. He looks around. Back in the present he says he can’t hide it anymore. I thought he said from Lichita, but I think it must be about Lichita. So he knows what happened.
El Chacal is talking on the phone with his partner. He thinks it’s time to after Melina, that snake, and Hernan. The partner says the higher ups donywant anything done yet. He tells the partner to keep him posted, and when he hangs up he says justice will be at his own hands.
Paulina is yelling at Tino, wondering what awful thing he did to their daughter. He tells her he has always taken care of,his kids, and there’s a denouncement against her for kidnapping Emi. She storms off and Tino gets a text from Aide, who says Paulina just sent her a strange text about Lila. He’ll explain when he gets home.
Wmi and Scarlet are talking about how strange Iker’s been when he walks up. They ask him about it, they wonder if it’s because his parents separated. I woman walks up to,them,and tells him his,mother is waiting for him.
Aide can’t believe what Bill is doing. She also worries that Lila will tell him what happened. She was worried about Melina knowing. If the kids and others learn it will be horrible. She also mentions Tino looks pale, he blames it on being upset about Bill. Then Aide begins having trouble like she used to.
Melina tells Íker he has to act depressed, sad, tell Tino his grades are going down. He asks why and she says so Tino will come back to the,. It’s part of her plan. Íker tells her he’s not going to do it. She says he doesn’t know what,she’s capable of. He says what, telling him Tino is his dad and it’s really Hernan.
At the gym Cheno is worried about Chofis. Serena says she’ll talk to her, she feels their relationship is improving. Cheno feels she seems down.She says Melina keeps telling her everything’s fine, but her numbers are down, she may not make it as an influencer. Heno wants to work with Melina, Serena says she’s leaving for good soon.

MONTEVERDE #50, Part 2 of 3
Rosalia confronts Franco about Nestor going to Zacatillo. Yes, it’s true he confirms and apologizes saying he can’t talk now. Rosalia calls Nestor but gets his voice mail.
Oscar (in a roundabout way) tries to tell Moises the story about Lucas. The little lad quickly guesses and says their family is complete! (Love Moises). He thinks Lucas and Franco are good friends. Oscar cautions him not to say anything; his stare and words are quite serious.
Rosalia leaves Lucia a voice message as to Lucas’ newly discovered father and brother. Lucia immediately calls Franco but gets his voice mail.
Jealous and vindictive Gloria comes back into the restaurant. There is a pepper shaker on the table which inspires her to commit mischief and make Doris pay. She takes a half a dozen liquor bottles down from the shelf and starts shaking pepper into them, smiling deviously.
Juan David tells Gloria he has to go out. She complains he is leaving her alone; he retorts she can see her mother. Nopis, she wants to go with him. He tries the “you’re pregnant” argument but it’s not cutting any mustard. He says he and Hugo need to go as she calls him by his full name showing she is serious. He leaves as she gives him the evil eye.
Before Gloria can put away all the bottles, Manuel arrives; he sees them on the bar but doesn’t look particularly suspicious. Manuel lies and says Doris is a free woman as Gloria makes a face having inhaled all that pepper. 😊He smiles as she leaves.
Angelina goes to see Father Gabriel complaining that Juan David is going to Zacatillo under some pretext. She says he is the only person he can trust.
Carolina and Moises arrive as Oscar’s as Andres greets them. Moises immediately spills the tea as Carolina stares.
Manuel serves Carlos as he asks about Hugo. After Hugo tells Manuel that Carlos is not a good person although he doesn’t provide specifics. Manuel raises his eyebrows.
Franco is pitching hay when Lucas shows up. I’m busy Franco says abruptly. Lucas is happy they are brothers but Franco cruelly rebuffs him, telling him that in his eyes, Lucas does not exist. He stalks off as Lucas looks hurt.
Moises makes it clear he isn’t interested in the history lesson being taught. He yawns loudly and is rude. Carolina asks Andres to leave them alone. What is it. He complains she isn’t a good person and flinches when she tries to pinch his cheek. He stands with his arms folded as she talks about Oscar. She makes a sad face and they hug. Amigos she asks. Amigos he says. There were a few more things said I couldn’t translate but at the end she did say something would be their secret.

MONTEVERDE #50, Part 3 of 3
Franco (his shirt unbuttoned down to his waist) listens to Lucia’s message. He calls her back but the scene fades out.
Manuel and Doris laugh at having put one over on Gloria when she returns, provoking an argument with Doris. A man arrives who I believe is a restaurant critic. Barwoman Doris engages him in conversation and it appears he is going to be back that evening. Doris and Manuel are ecstatic but Gloria isn’t smiling. Hugo looks nervous in the background. Manuel enthusiastically discusses the menu he will prepare including flan for dessert. Uh oh…
Moises brings Carolina into Oscar’s office. He stares but is civil. Carolina tells him she knows about Lucas. I can’t translate what he says other than they are not friends, it’s impossible. She looks cut to the quick and leaves. She talks to Moises after and gives him a kiss on the head.
Moises tells his father Carolina is concerned about him. He says something that makes Oscar get up and leave.
Hugo comes into Juan David and Angelina’s workplace clearly uncomfortable. After they go outside, Hugo tells Juan David he has a big gig that evening! Father Gabriel asks where they are going; I’m not sure what the answer is but I think Father Gabriel is going with them (?) Hugo seems to have some plan as he runs off.
“Hemana Celeste” Oscar says having chased her down in his car. He asks her to forgive him, saying she is his amiga. I love you she says. Then why he asks, taking her hands a puzzled expression on his face. He asks why they can’t be happy. A car horn honks and Carlos drives up! He and Oscar glare at each other. Carlos insists on taking her and picks up her bicycle. Oscar grabs Carolina and asks what is up with Carlos.
Lucia and Diego are doing some window shopping when she listens to Franco’s voice mail saying Lucas is his brother. Diego comes out and seeing her expression asks if she is all right. She admits that Franco is going through a very difficult time. I believe Diego asks Lucia if she wants to return to Monteverde.
In the last scene, after Oscar leaves, Carlos holds up his ring finger yelling that they are married. When Carolina brings up papers Carlos insists she is his wife. He starts manhandling her as Rosalia rushes up and pushes him away!
My biggest fear is that Juan David’s seemingly flourishing career will come to an abrupt halt without us getting to see a show!!
Why do I have a feeling that the critics’ dining experience at Manuel’s is going to be a disaster??? I can’t wait to see what happens.
I half expected Carlos, knowing that Carolina and Oscar are in love was going to tell Oscar he is Carolina’s husband. Although Oscar didn’t find out the truth tonight, I have a feeling the walls are going to cave in soon.

Our 4 detectives are at the coffee shop trying to think how to prove Uli’s innocence. Lila comes up and says she needs to talk to Circe and Uli.
In court the judge says she has all the information she needs to make a decision. Amarion wants to say something. The judge says he already had his chance but then says if he really wants to say something…he does. He stands up, dragging Prisma with him. He says they love each other and are married, unlike Eudolf and Clara Luz, Rudolf and Clara Luz get up, Rudolf says they’re getting married very soon.
The three youngest are leaving school. Scarlet gets a text from Facundo and Íker asks if that’s who texted. She tells him not to say it loudly, she doesn’t want Emi to know. Meanwhile El Chacal was watching. Aurelio appears to get them but then Bill shows up and wants to talk to Emi.
Lila tells Circe and Uli she’s dating Bill. They think it’s horrible. He dated her mother and then their mother. He’s her boss. And what will Emi think. She makes them promise not to tell Emi. Ir e wonders how she could do this to Aide.Lila says with what Aide did to her she’s not worried about doing this to Aide.As she walks away Circe wonders what Aide did.Uli doesn’t know.
Bill tells Emi he wants to give him his last name. Wmi isn’t interested. Bill says it could help him and keep him safe, Emi says Paulina wasn’t the best mother but he doesn’t want,anything bad to happen to her. Bill says he has something important to tell Emi but he’ll wait,
Rudolf reminds Clara Luz of when he once proposed and she wasn’t interested in marriage.She asks how the app is going. He’s going to meet someone in person. He suggests she date Martin but then says he’s gay. He suggests a dating app for her.She tells him if they’re supposed to be a happy couple he better not run into anyone while on a date.
Serena tells Poncho he seems nervous, she wonders if it’s the Olympics.He says yes, and leaves to go to the bathroom, taking his copmputer. She talks to Chofis,trying to fix things between Chofis and Cheno. Chofis says she and Serena are getting along peacefully with each other.
Gisela is telling the kids Aide can’t get out of bed for a while. Íker gets up to clear the table and Gisela questions him on what Hernan told him. He talks to her without looking her in the eye so she knows he’s lying.
Rudolf is ready for his date. He tells Clara Luz she’s the best ex. Pipe wakes up and wonders where his dad is. She tells him he had to go to work. She decides to get on a dating app using a different identity.

PAPAS
Liz, another fabulous job. Thank you for your sharp observations that explain so much!
As Melina was at Hernan's bedside and saw everything El Chacal did, I think she was smart enough not to be home in her bed. I do worry though about who it was El Chacal did shoot.
I really can't imagine what Aide and/or Tino did that turned Lila against her and her family! Does anyone have any ideas??
I felt for Circe on learning Lila and Bill are "dating". I would have been as horrified (her word) as she was! Uli took the news without much facial reaction (correct me if I missed something), his lack of emotion was unsettling.
It seems as though El Chacal may have had a hand in Lichita's death.
Not smart of Rudolf to go on a face to face date; now that Nazario has followed him, the fallout will not be good.
Liz, Papas is not airing on Thursday night. Enjoy your family's visit!
Thank you!

I watched all the episodes, but I'm still waiting for Elvira's personal touch 🤔
My favorite part from last episode were just 3 words from Doménica to Luis Fernando - Go to Hell!(or devil 😈)

Liz, I will watch Wednesday's episode sometime on Thursday and I can put up some highlights then.
There is no Papas on Thursday. That will leave only Friday's episode. I won't be able to watch Friday's episode in real time but will hopefully be able to watch sometime over the weekend.
Please enjoy your family!

I thought it was incredibly cruel of Nestor not to tell Rosalia he was moving. Also didn't it occur to Eva to say something??

Papas
Thanks Diana, thanks, I figured they wouldn’t kill off Melina, but they definitely killed someone. Did Melina trick someone to sleep in her bed. And is it someone we know? She and El Chacal are cold blooded killers. I can’t believe she just recently changed, as Iker said.
I’m pretty sure Lichita died at his hand. Part of me hopes she’s alive somewhere but it seems doubtful. And soon Scarlet will be in danger.
Nazario must have followed Rudolf. Not sure why he suspects him of anything, but Rudolf was foolish to risk the kids for a date.
I can’t figure out what Tino and Aide did, but since they’re worried about it getting out it must be bad. And now Bill knows, and I have mixed feelings about him. I also wonder about Jason’s money. Tino doesn’t seem to know about it.
I just saw this morning that Papas wasn’t airing Thursday. I had a meeting last night and just wanted to do the recap and go to bed. So I never read the heading. I had checked on the recordings on my tv and it should it airing all three nights so was happy to read differently. I should be able to do the Friday one Sunday or Monday if the weather is ok and my sister and niece can fly home! I can write a summary of Wednesday if you don’t have time. It would be Sunday evening.

MONTEVERDE Extras parte 1
Thank you, Diana.
After hearing Lucas' concerns that Franco will not be happy to know they are brothers, his father tells him not to worry and that the fact they are brothers will go beyond any resentment he may feel towards him. Lucas doesn't know about that.
Carlos accuses Carolina of poisoning his son's mind against him as well as making him fear going anywhere with him. He will not allow that. She doubts has plans of staying in Monteverde enjoying all of the money he stole. She adds that she will not allow him to separate her from Andrés for any reason. He argues that his son is better off with him not stuck in this lousy town incommunicado with the real world in the middle of nowhere with his beloved Sister Celeste giving him classes. He tells her not to be selfish. What does is she intending to do? She answers only to prove her innocence and for him to go to jail. He grabs her arm and Rosalía sees it. He informs her that his son will be sleeping with him in his room tonight. He isn't asking. He will pick him up at eight. She tells him to go ahead and try because her son isn't sleeping anywhere except at the inn with her.
Andrés tells Carolina that his father never talks badly about her, why cannot she do the same?
Gloria asks Doris how can she talk like that with Manuel since she is a married woman. Doris says the fact that she is married doesn't have anything to do with the affection she feels for Manuel.
Rosalía is concerned that Carlos was attacking Celeste. Carolina tries to make light of it saying she misinterpreted the situation. Rosalía doesn't agree. The man was furious and him forcefully grabbing her arm like he did is not right. She cannot allow herself to be disrespected like that. Carolina answers of course not. Rosalía says that if she needs help, she is there for her.
Moisés cannot wait until he can give Lucas a strong hug as his brother!! Oscar says Moisés cannot mention this to anyone because Franco didn't take the news very well. Moisés doesn't get it. He would be so happy if he found out that Andrés was his brother. That gives Oscar something to think about.
Angelina isn't buying Juan David's shaky story about going to Zacatillo with Hugo for merchandise. If he is lying to her, she will never forgive him. He answers he is only going to Zacatillo to work.
Thank you, Diana.

MONTEVERDE Extras parte 2
Gloria explains her presence to Manuel as after having seen the state of the bar, she had to clean it up. Manuel says they were very busy last night. Since Doris has appeared on the scene, people are there all the time to try her cocktails. They didn't get to bed until two in the morning. She asks if "they" means he and Doris. He clarifies it by saying no they did't' sleep together. Doris is a married woman. Gloria wonders what Cárcamo has to say about him carrying on a libertine relationship with his wife. Manuel smiles broadly answering that Cárcamo is a very modern man who allows his wife to be a free woman. Gloria is disappointed in Manuel. She never thought he was a dirty old man. He warns her not to disrespect him. She tells him to behave himself then.He reminds her that she has no right to be there blaming him for anything. He only had eyes for her but it was she who had to go ahead and make things hard. So, he has to continue on with his life and start to love those who unleash his inner bull!! Gloria only came by for a coffee. She cannot take anymore and leaves. Manuel is left grinning ear to ear.
The good father assures Angelina he will investigate the situation with Juan David. He only asks for her patience. She is grateful.
Moisés is still upset that Carolina doesn't love his godfather. He cannot love anyone that doesn't love his godfather. She explains that his godfather is one of the people she loves the most in the world but she cannot be at his side. She explains that she made a commitment that she has to fulfill but that doesn't mean that she doesn't love him or his godfather. Sadly, she cannot change anything about that at this time. She starts to cry. He asks her not to because she is making him cry, too. They hug and all is well. He also tells her that his godfather told him that he hoped that Sister Celeste would come by and chat with him. He asks her not to tell his godfather that he told her so he doesn't hang him by his ears. She promises she won't tell on him. It is their secret.
Jaime Aramburu, a journalist arrives, at the restaurant. He works for the most prestigious newspaper in Zacatillo. Jaime explains they are writing a tourist guide to the best restaurants in the region. Everyone says Manuel's is one of those. Doris chimes sin saying it cleary is and that the drinks they serve are spectacular. He says that if it is okay by them, Tito Meza, a great food critic, will come by to taste their food tonight. Hugo asks if it has to be tonight. Manuel happily accepts the offer and tells Jaime that they will be there waiting for Tito with open arms. They shake on it. Hugo wants to do it tomorrow because he has an appointment tonight. Manuel tells him to forget about that and assures Jaime that they will be ready for Tito tonight! Gloria thinks they should change their "bar woman" for tonight. She could make them look bad. Doris tells her to respect her. Manuel cuts the argument off. It is not the time to argue! They have to get ready for tonight. He sends Hugo off to buy supplies. He is planning a great salad, a chicken and potato soup and coconut flan for dessert. Doris grabs his hand, for Gloria's benefit, and tells him he cannot forget the tuna croquettes, the specialty of the house!!! He loves the idea. What would he do without her? They share the laugh as Gloria glares on. After Manuel leaves. Gloria knowingly smirks at Doris.

MONTEVERDE Extras parte 3
Oscar tells Carolina the only time they will communicate is about Moisés' education. It is best that she leave. She asks Moisés not to lie to her again. He told her that his father wanted to talk to her and that wasn't true. He says that he knows that deep down his father wants tot alk to her. She disagrees. He apologizes.
Moisés asks Oscar why he is being such a fool. the nun came to see him because she was worried about him and he treated her badly. Oscar tells him that is none of his concern. Moisés says she came by to see how he was after finding out about Lucas. She was so sad when she left on her bike. Oscar asks if she really was sad? Moisés says she was trying not to cry. Moisés reminds him that he taught him not to treat people like that especially if you love them.
Moisés is triumphant seeing Oscar leaving to find Carolina≥
Before Carolina leaves with Carlos, Oscar asks why is she so afraid of that man. She only says they will see each other later.
Suddenly, the good father is going with them to Zacatillo even though he thinks that Hugo and Juan David are lying about something. He is going with them to see another priest at 7:00 if they are leaving at 6:00. Juan David wants Hugo to call Violeta so he can cancel for tonight. Hugo tells him no way. He needs the money. What to do then?? Out of nowhere, Hugo has come up with a plan! He will tell Juan David later.
Franco also tells Lucía tha he loves her like he has never loved anyone before.
Diego suspects that the fact thatFranco is having a bad time is the reason she as been out of it all day. She explains that even though they are no longer together, she still is worried that he is okay. She tells Diego it is nothing for hi to be concerned about Diego doesn't think it is very healthy that she continues to be in contact with Franco. She agrees but Monteverde is a very small town.
He asks her if she has considered leaving Monteverde.

She reminds him that everyone in town thinks she is a nun. He reminds her again that she isn't a nun but his wife. He is upset about her meetings with Oscar. He roughly grabs her and asks what is going on with that guy? Enter Rosalía. How can he treat Sister Celeste like that???

Diana, ITA that Néstor was cruel in not telling Rosalía that he was leaving town but that is who he is and she has to recognize it already. So far, he has given her no affection unless trapped into doing so.
So much good humor in this one with Gloria/Doris/Manuel in particular.
Moisés is the best.
I felt sorry for Andrés being pressured by Carolina about not being with his father even though she is right. She needs to back off even if it means losing him to Carlos. She is not winning that fight and ruining her own relationship with him.

Jarifa, thank you for adding so much depth and context to the conversations and for doing it so marvelously. Your dialogue translations are simply perfect. The many small discussions throughout are important and I know that I don't always capture things correctly or completely but thanks to you, we always know exactly what was said.
"Moisés reminds him that he taught him not to treat people like that especially if you love them". Children can be so wise and truthful. He is indeed Oscar's conscience. And his heart. "Moisés doesn't get it. He would be so happy if he found out that Andrés was his brother. That gives Oscar something to think about" made me smile at the thought.
I appreciate your explaining it was a journalist who visited and the food critic is yet to come. This is going to be fun! I hope the pepper liquor doesn't ruin everything?!
I like Diego but his and Lucia's relationship is very new and I'm not sure he knows enough to say that Lucia continuing to talk with Franco is not healthy.
Hugo can't be two places at once. What is he going to do?
Rosalia is tenacious and will not let what she saw between Carlos and Carolina go (nor should she). I hope she tells Lucas or even better, Franco!
Lots of threads hanging tonight. Bring on the dinner and (maybe Juan David's) dancing!!
Jarifa, thank you for your generous time and wonderful summary.

Papas,
Liz, thank you for another great replay of all the crazy. it seems that Chacal and evidently other bad cops are at the heart if all this evil . Melina and Hernan brought a lot of misery when they came to town.
That definitely wasn't Melina who got shot in the back . Perhaps it was the woman she sent to tell Iker to come home .
What in the world is Rudolf thinking going on a date when things were just getting settled about who gets the twins ? He is being foo!ish.
I wish I could remember how the first season ended. I remember that Jason left Pauline stranded somewhere when be found out what a liar she was and had no love for her kids . I don't remember anything bad happening between Lila and Tino or Aide. She and Circe didn't get along at the beginning , but they seemed okay at the end . I think she was jealous of the attention that Emi got .
Liz, I am always grateful for your recaps . Have a good time with your family. We got six inches of snow thks past weekend , and now we are in a deep freeze . uff.. Susan

MONTEVERDE
Jarifa, I completely agree that the Gloria/Manuel/Doris scenes are the best! Love how Doris doesn't let Gloria push her around. Now she is doing the "besting" and I couldn't be happier.
And I give Claudia Acosta credit for holding her own against Cynthia and Oscar, two talented and very experienced actors! I don't think I've seen Claudia before but am a fan and hope to see her again soon.
So if the good father does find out about Juan David's side line, is it too much to expect he will keep silent?? We need at least one full show with both Juan David AND Hugo. The writers have been stringing us along and they need to deliver. 😊

PODCAST
For anyone who is a fan of “La fea más bella” there is a continuing podcast, that is also available on Youtube, called “La suerte de la fea”. Angélica Vale who played Leti, the main character, discusses the making of the novela and everyone and everything involved. It is quite the look inside novela production.
