But they both say wonderful/touching things about the other. Daniela then goes into how much she enjoyed their loves scenes.

The boys argue over MJ. Alex wins and Bruno leaves. Instead of having a family dinner Alex decides to take MJ out to dinner and enjoy the rest of their evening. Bruno heads back to his Chalet and rants and raves and has a tantrum. Eric shows up and wants to know how things are going. Bad idea. Bruno bites his head off and says that if he can’t have her then neither can Alex.

As Viewerville returns to sleepy Saqui, it’s dinnertime at the Samaniego’s. Mary Jo tells Pedro and Paula that in no time things for them will be just like old times, just as if they’d never left. Paula lets out with a snide “not ‘everything’,” but MJ ignores her. She tells Pedro she wants to visit her mother’s grave the next day with both of them.

Bruno doesn't knock.This novela bolted out of the starting gate but it stalled tonight while Alejandro was mulling incessantly over this strange situation: he now remembers almost everything, EXCEPT his sister-in-law Paula and his wife MJ whom he's supposedly known for months. And why did he hide his supposed marriage from everybody, even his best friend Fernando? And why did he tell MJ so many lies?

First the video rewind: Mary Jo is mad as H. E. double hockey sticks with Bad Boy Bruno for lying to her and wants to know why he’s pulled such a fast one on her. Our mentally twisted twin tells her that it’s because he loves her. Mary Jo (like the rest of us in Viewerville) knows this does not compute. She throws it right back at him, saying if he loved her he wouldn’t have tried threatening Jardinera654http://www.blogger.com/profile/06712072297792195076noreply@blogger.com69tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25394992.post-49563936631535418742009-10-09T08:25:00.003-04:002020-04-27T14:41:42.980-04:00Sortilegio #3, October 8: And Now for Something Completely Different...or Maybe Not.

From yesterday:
Roberto walks in and asks Raquel where everyone is. They are at the funeral home she replies. And the wife? Have you seen her? What kind of woman is she? Raquel says she hasn't met her yet but she had to borrow clothes. Roberto makes some kind of snotty remark that I didn't catch.

Several years ago I had what I thought was a novel idea. :) (I seriously have to roll my eyes now that it was a novel idea.) I would learn Spanish by watching Spanish Television and listen to Spanish in my car as I drove from place to place with my job.

I'm Connie and I'll be recapping the Thursday night episode of Sortilegio. I studied Spanish from the 4th grade through 3 semesters in college but it is so true that if you don't use it you'll lose it. When I met my boyfriend 5 years ago (he's from Guatemala) it got me interested in relearning Spanish. So I bought some CDs and started watching the Telenovelas and Spanish TV Unknownnoreply@blogger.com18tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25394992.post-89223409302828642382009-09-26T08:40:00.003-04:002015-08-04T22:52:39.619-04:00Sortilegio: STILL still need two recappers!Well, Connie volunteered for Thursday (hurrah!) but Jody dropped out on Wednesdays.
