La Gata #99 01/19/15 The story as told by Principe
Hello all, Eli has asked me to take over as she is currently trying to fake her death, normally I'd say "no" because I'm a feline and have better things to do but then I reconsidered, people need to know about the kind of abuse I have suffered and maybe someone will save me. Do not question how I know what's going on with everyone, including Pablo, I am a cat, I know all and see all.
Pablo has run off to the woods in order to teach a girl, Vicky, I think is her name. The poor girl actually thinks he has talent, I don't think she's ever seen his horrible paintings. Because he is off in the country side "working" Pablo is around to provide Esmeralda the emotional support she needs. She is angry that he's not around and feels that it means he does not care about the fate of the babies. Oh sure, she thinks she could ask him to explain himself, but she refuses to do it, instead she chooses to believe a woman who has done nothing but hurt her and her family. Whatever. The babies still show no progress, I think someone needs to slip human growth hormone into their milk.

La Gata #98 Hot Diggety! ¡Últimas Semanas!
Lower your expectations. I've watched it twice already (and even took notes the second time!) and I still don't know how to force it all into some sort of coherent recap.
I've gone back and looked at my notes and I must have been drunk at the time, which can't be good because it was 8 in the morning.
Anyoo...here goes nothing.

La Gata #97 Thur 1-15 The one I'd rather flush than re-crap!
Hey y'all. I couldn't even gin this thing up at all. It tis what it tis!
Esme’s ready to go deliver some beads. Damian comes to the door. Damian tells her he will be with her for the appointment in the Lawyer’s office. Esme refuses.
Esme’s ready to go deliver some beads. Damian comes to the door. Damian tells her he will be with her for the appointment in the Lawyer’s office. Esme refuses.
Pablo discusses the Garza appointment with Lo. She plays her cognitively impaired son like a fiddle. She tells him that when he was in New York Esme confessed to her that a man had offered to help her out, to take her on as his concubine or his wife, you know to help her. Lo counsels that he should not be too hard on Esme, she was all alone and needed help. Pablo kisses Lo’s hands in gratitude for her goodness and her sage counsel!

La Gata #96 - Wed 1/14- La Duda
Pablo rips up the test results, as if that will accomplish anything. Damian shows up, late, as Juan the Ferret tries to act like maybe he did do something wrong by not calling Esme, but, oops, he didn't know she was pregnant!
Esme stews about how Pablo doesn't believe her, yet again.
Juan the Ferret gives a poetic answer about where he "came from." Damian thinks it's about damn time that Esme get involved. Ferret mentions "witnesses."

La Gata #95 1/13/15 A Rainbow of Stupid
1. Many thanks to Eli, Diva and Anon for the inspiration
2. The only action getting recapped is whatever fits into the theme. We can all clarify and add in the comments.
Seeing Red
Garabato is pissed. His parents were murdered and he was left a dumpster baby. It's all La Gata's fault. Her parents must die....or her parents must be left without a child. We've all said it before-La Gata was a baby. How is it her fault?
Little White Lies
More like big whoppers, but I'm working an angle here.
Augie conveniently gets back his ability to talk and tells Esme and Pablo that Lorenza is lying about her illness just so Eseme will care for him. Later Augie is back to thought bubbling so I'm particularly annoyed by this. Proof positive that the writers just do whatever the hell they want. Logic, story and quality be damned.
Later in the episode Lo tells another lie. She spills the beans to Esme about the paternity suit (stretched over two scenes...it took forever.) Lo says Pablo came to her full of doubt thanks to this latest event. Could it be that the children aren't Pablo's?

La Gata #94 01/12/15 Where's Maury when you need him?
I used to be a happy girl, but this show has broken my spirit, its gotten so bad that I can't really seem to make out what the characters are saying, as in all the conversations are a blur. I'm not trying to be a jerk, it's just that I find myself having a hard time trying to focus. I even made a song!
I hate this show and I can not lie
All my patio peeps will understand
That nothing on this show is worth watching
But we are dedicated peeps
so we will keep on recapping
I might need therapy this is no lie
I wonder if Televisa will help me out?
Okay, so not the best song but it's the best I could do!

La Gata #93 Friday 1/9/15 La... Oh who am I kidding? There are just no words.
Yes, the foot art is ridiculously annoying, distracting and ugly. So is Pablo. As Mariano noted, he accomplished NOTHING with the lawyer. Pablo does get a point for suggesting a DNA test. Mariano gets the dumbass award for scoffing at the idea. That only happens when the case goes to court, he says. I want to try hash out an agreement before it comes to that, he says. WTF? I say. They don't even finish this line of thought before Pablo veers off into a conversation about Virginia.
Virginia and Esme gush over the wedding dress. Virginia just wants a family. A united family.No anvil sounds. Almost a disappointment until I realize they really only use the anvil sound for totally stupid stuff.

La Gata #92 Thursday 1-8-15 The Anti-Climax or Was it a dud for you too?
Pablo invites Carlos to his apartment. Carlos thinks it’s about Pablo’s not being chosen as the Padrino for Carlos and Virginia’s wedding. No. It’s about Virginia and after Carlos learns it, he probably won’t want to marry her.
Pablo tells Carlos Virginia has a terrible illness she inherited from her mother. She can’t have children. If she does she will die. Carlos thinks it’s a lie from Lo to separate them. Pablo further tells Carlos that Virginia is not the biological child of his parents but his cousin. Carlos turns away and weeps. He tells Carlos he can marry but not have children and Virginia doesn’t know. Carlos mustn’t tell her. It is his mother’s place. Pablo tells him he will understand if he doesn’t want to marry and just go far away. He asks Carlos if he will marry Virginia or leave. Carlos turns his back, silently weeping and thinking for a loooong time. Finally he turns back to Pablo. Only Virginia matters to him. If they can’t have children, they can adopt. Virginia is a blessing in his life and he’s going to marry her. He deflects any praise from Pablo that he is a great man. “I’m a normal man with a great woman by my side.”

La Gata #91 - Wed 1/7- La Desilusión
Omigosh you guys! I'm like SUPER EXCITED about this episode! I hope Esme's dad finally tells her the truth tonight. I'd be SO STOKED!
Oh noooooo! Pablo says that if Fernando doesn't tell he will. Don't do it, Pablo! That's just mean! Awww, he's right…it's mean to Fela not to tell. Esme's so pretty! I love her dress! Hee hee, she kissed Pablo hello. They're so cute! They're looking at her funny. She's going to get suspicious you guys! Cut it out! Whew! Pablo left without telling her. Maybe she'll tell Jarocha why she's all weirded out.
Yuck! Gisela's wearing more of her stupid glasses. Oh no! And now Lorenza is telling Gisela that she knows who Esme's dad is. What? Gisela wants to go to Paris. Poor Paris. She's nuts!

La Gata #90 1/6/14 La Pelea
We had a little more action tonight. No. Action isn't exactly it. It seemed a little less cut and paste. Here are some bullets. The captions lagged tonight, I didn't pay close attention and I'm doing this from memory.
- Garabato sees Mariano and asks if he can get some sort of work with La Gata. He and Mariano head over to Fer's.
- At Fer's Garabato plays the penitent and apologizes for all the harm he did. He even apologizes to Fela for playing keep away with the doll. Fer thinks Garabato could be a good bodyguard or chauffeur. Gata doesn't like that idea. Eventually it's decided that Garabato is just going to hang around Gata's house and be at her beck and call. (I swear that's what it sounded like.)
- Needless to say, as soon as Garabato can get to a phone he calls Gi and tells her where Esme is living. This is no way to treat Esme. She even gave him money so he could buy chocolate for Ines!

La Gata #88 1/2/14
I watched it, and then fast forwarded to catch the main action. Most of the episode felt like it was Esme getting ready to leave. Most of it is in order but I did some serious condensing.
Dr. Marcelo asks Esme if it's possible that Gisela and Lo were in cahoots.
So Esme goes tearing over to Gisela's and starts acting like a wild woman, demanding to know why Gisela almost killed Pablo's child. The nurse runs out and calls the doctor from a pay phone. WTF? Gisela doesn't have a phone?

La Gata #87 1-1-15 In which brainless parents are more harmful than the Big Bad Wolf!
Happy New Year my suffering sisters and brothers on the La Gata Patio. Let's do this!
We open with another look at Esme’s demonstration of her ability to walk for El Sil, Blanca, Jarocha, her babies and creepy doc. The babies are the best. Pablito stares at her with wonder then appears to get choked up while Leti stares at the pretty lights in the ceiling. Oops! They suddenly switch and now Pablito is transfixed by the lights while Leti watches the unfolding miracle! Creepy doc just stares blankly and smiles.

La Gata #86 12/30/14 La Catatonia
Lo comes to visit Gi and tells her about her google research on bipolar disorder. If Gi will fake a catatonic state, Pablo will feel so guilty he will marry Gi and they will be rid of the maldita gata forever. I can't even. No seriously. As much as I want to be funny as hell and make some scathingly witty remark, I can't. Just.too.stupid. (Keep that in mind through the whole recap. I don't have the skillz to make this sh!t entertaining.)
Mariano comes to visit and can't even put 2 and 2 together. Listen again, Mariano: the nurse said your mom came by and then boom! Gi went all catatonic. Mariano actually feels sorry for her and is worried about how terrible Pablo is going to feel.

La Gata #85 12/29/2014 Haters gonna hate but I'm just going to roll
Hey peeps! Guess what I got for Christmas? A beanie! It's gold and it sparkles and I'll try and figure out how to post a picture of it soon.
Anyhoo, last week I was over at my boyfriends house and I was telling him all about the show and then he looked at me and said "I'm sorry I asked, please,please stop telling me about this, it sounds so convoluted and if I were using this show to learn Spanish I'd think I was understanding things wrong". I then went into sneaky ninja mode and slowly hid the remote. On to the recap!
How do we know Pablo is stupid?
Easy. He has agreed to get married to a woman who he knows has an unhealthy obsession with him, who has tried to injure his lady love and who accused his brother of RAPE all so he can save his good for nothing criminal of a father.Oh yes, he is going to go through with it because when you are a member of a family you make sacrifices!

La Gata #84 12/26/14 La Bomba
Alternate title: La Decisión (but it's a shame that El Circo is a masculine noun, 'cause seriously, the trial is just a circus of interruptions.)
The trial begins and Fer claims in his opening statement that he was unjustly accused of murdering his partner (Bruno de la Fuente) in cold blood, but it was really in self defense. Augie just heckles and objects. The murder has already been tried and settled. It has no bearing on the current case. Why are they rehashing it? Osorio says he hopes to get a second trial(?) The judge overrules Augie's objection.
Fer now realizes that Augie not only took his fortune, he took his child and drove Blanca mad. Augie was obsessed with Blanca and when she refused to have anything to do with him, Augie took his revenge and stole Fernando's life!
This sets off Fela's memories. She now remembers that Fernando was set up. She remembers when her baby was taken away. She also remembers when Fernando was taken away. She remembers the confrontation with Augie soon afterwards. She accuses Augie of framing Fernando. Augie was the one that told Fernando that Bruno de la Fuente had a gun and it was Augie who put the gun where Fernando could get it. When she asked Augie why he did that, Augie says so there would be no witnesses. According to Augie both he and Bruno were stealing Fernando's fortune (did I get that right?) Now Augie alone has Fernando's fortune. Blanca thinks Augie must have really hated her. Oh, no. That's not it at all! Augie claims he sent Fernando off to jail and stole his fortune so Blanca would be his. He loves her! Blanca tells him money doesn't matter and she would rather be dead or crazy than be with Augie. Augie says that can be arranged! Back to the present: She announces she wants to be a witness!

La Gata #83 12/25/14 La impotencia
I wish everyone Love and the best of whatever tradition you hold dear! Here is a skeletal summary of tonight’s show!
Augie and Gisela have drugged Lorenza and send a text to Pablo to throw him off her trail. The MN kids recognize immediately it’s a fake: Lo doesn’t text. Mauro and Pablo head for Lo and Augie’s apartment.
Garabato tries to preach the gospel of a better life to a bitter and angry Ines. La Gata is to blame for everything including filling his head with these crazy dreams. He vows vengeance on La Gata so Ines can be happy.
Pablo and Mariano arrive at their folks' apartment and start yelling for them and pounding on their door. Gisela counsels Augie by phone to NOT open the door and SHE will take care of Pablo. Augie talks to the zoned-out Lo blaming her for forcing him to do this to her, she should have stuck by him and now he’s going to end up looking like the bad guy!

La Gata #82 - Wed 12/24- La Finta
Virginia isn't Lo's daughter! She's the daughter of Lo's favorite sister and made Lo swear she'd care for her like her own daughter. If Virginia has a daughter, she'll have the same fate as her mother--death.
Virginia is telling Esme that she's "dying" of excitement and wants Esme to be her maid of honor. Or matron, I guess, depending on the timing. She's looking forward to having lots and lots of kids with Carlos.
Pablo vows to keep Lorenza's secret, but Lo says she can't tell Virginia either. He appears to have talked her into telling Virginia herself. Lorenza thought bubbles that at least if Virginia adopts she won't have a grandchild who is *****. There are a million ways she could have finished that sentence, and unfortunately, since she wasn't saying it out loud, there is no way to figure out what she said. Can anyone who saw the Mexican broadcast tell us if it was bleeped there as well?

La Gata #81 12/23/14 La Rita
Hot damn and pass the okra! I got a halfway entertaining episode. Don't hate fellow recappers.
- Pabs and Esme are going to marry in a month...'cause they love each other NOT because she needs a
babysitterbodyguard. - Pablo's bank accounts have all been frozen. He's advised to see a lawyer. He goes to Mariano and he explains that Gisela had some clause in the contract to make sure he would fulfill his end of the contract (Soooo, am I the only one who's wondering if there is some sort of kinky "have sex with Gisela" clause?)
- Low catches Gisela in her apartment and she gives some angry, impassioned speech about how much the family has tried to support him, but now they are not helping Augie when he falls. She's now his enemy and she's declaring war...to the death!

La Gata #80 The one Eli did not recap
Patio Peeps, I got home after midnight last night and only managed to see a bit of the show, and I was so tired that my brain did not pick up most of what was going on, normally I could watch the show at work and write a quick recap but I have lots of work to do before taking off for Christmas, I'll tell you what little I do remember and we then we can use the comments section to fill in the missing parts:
Damian is in a coma and even if he does recover odds are he will have amnesia, this proves to be a hardship because all of Fernando's money was given to Damian and with him in a coma no one can write checks, this means Fernando and Co are broke.
Pablo volunteers to pay for Damian's medical bill, cause he is family, yo. Does painting bad pictures of cats pay that much?
Speaking of which, el idiota de Pablo is about to get bigger better projects, but guess what? He can't paint for anyone else but Gisela because he signed a contract he never read. Dumb ass.
Miss Kitty also wants to help with the bills, cause she is a grown woman.
Fela gets some of her memory back, she remembers that Agustin is a bad guy.
And in the :where the f*ck did that story-line come from segment:
It now turns out that Chacharas, or whatever his name is was once Blanca's manager. Seriously, now I think they are making this stuff up as they go along. Blanca was found how long ago? Whatever.
And I have a treat for you all, this is what I call: Stuff I read on Twitter! Enjoy.
"Senoritas please tell me. Are you all going around trying to kill women who are with men you can't have?, #lagataus"
"Gissela is such an annoying psychopath #lagataus"
"Gisela is such a boring and annoying character...can she just be killed off already.. #LaGataUS"
Join us tomorrow when the crazyness is bound to continue!
