Vino el Amor, Lunes 3/20/17 Chapter 97: Paternity Blues
David tried to assure Luciana
that this separation is temporary. She looks a bit doubtful but he
says that these are difficult times but they will get through them.
He misses her. Before they can seal it with a kiss Ramón entered to
tell them that they need to talk about diverting the river water.
Complicated, but the only way at the moment. After he leaves the
room Luciana asks whether that is the only way. And David says they
need also to find out what is causing the current problem.

Vino el Amor #96, Friday 3/17/17: Water, Water, Everywhere Else, But Not a Drop for Lil
Yesterday – (See Julie’s rippin’ good tale at the end of
yesterday’s recap)
The review starts with Dr. Evil Anderson trying to convince David he’s at fault for Fer’s suicide attempt. It includes Juan and Mark plotting in English; Luci and Leon discussing Mamá’s betrayal, and Marta and Lilian’s confrontation in the kitchen.
Today – (All you’ve got is me)
Dr. Evil and Fer – Fer is telling the doc that she feels worse now that she realized her affection for her nana was misplaced because of what she did with Fer’s own granddaddy. Dr. Evil jumps up, very concerned that she might try to off herself again. Fer insists that she’s almost positively sure she didn’t want to commit suicide, she only wanted to feel better. Dr. Evil (with $$$$ dancing in his head) assures her that her motives are hidden deep inside her and that’s what he’s there for. Fer says, juarever. She is going to concentrate on defending her feelings for her aunt, her grandmother and for, sigh, Tano, un tipazo.
Marta and Lil – The two continue their argument in the kitchen. Marta says she’s no longer afraid of Lil’s threats. Since she lost the love of Fer and her children, there’s nothing to hold her back, so beware, Lil. Marta sneers that the Patron still prefers her to Lil to care for the children. Lil answers back that she’ll figure out a way to get close to the grandchildren and if Marta had any dignity, she would leave. Lil gloats that she didn’t get Fernando nor Gut. Marta has had enough and hands Lil a drippy ladle and tells her here, if she wants to be a good grandmother, finish the meal. Marta stalks out. Yikes, Lil holds the ladle away from her as if it were a poisonous snake and yells for Sonia, who has the bad luck to be within earshot of the battlefield.

Vino el Amor, #95, Thursday Mar 16, 2017: A Dry Spell Begins
Hi all! Cynthia is dealing with a cupcake emergency tonight. She will return as your recapper next week.
Luci tells Dave she thinks it's better for everyone if they break up. Dave can't believe life is so unfair, it's the second time that what he loves most is taken away from him. Luci says no, it's just not their time. He tells her that she's shown him the best time he's had in ages, and she will stay with him in his heart. They hug. She doesn't want to hurt anyone else with their love. He says they have to consider themselves very lucky to have lived such a special love. He says "I love you" (te amo), and she replies "I will always love you" (yo siempre te voy a amar).
They share one last whiskery kiss. Luciana walks away crying.
Lilian is having coffee with Brian. She's gloating about Marta's admission of the affair. Bri says he's sorry and he doesn't know what to say, but he looks as though he also doesn't give a crap. Lil continues that Marta said she did it to hurt Lil AND because she was in love with Lil's husband, in that order. Bri says he's sure Marta is suffering. Lil says Marta deserves it; she fooled Brian too. Lil is excited that this is giving her a second chance to be with David and with her granddaughter. (I guess Bobby can go fly a kite.) And with Brian, too. Brian dutifully smiles and puts his hand on hers. Lil assures him that she's not a bad person, and had good reason to treat Marta the way she did.
Brian kisses her hand and says, "enjoy your coffee." Steamy!

Vino el Amor #94; Wednesday, March 15, 2017: Vino la Verdad
As we left off yesterday, the truth comes out about Marta’s
affair with Fernando. Luciana, standing in the living room is shocked at what
she hears and says, “Mamá?” Fernanda also looks up and says, “Nana, what is
happening?” Lil angrily looks at Marta and says, “Now they all know who you
really are! And now they understand why I am the way I am with you!” Marta just
looks down and is now looking ashamed and doesn’t know what to say. Fernanda is just shocked. Lil comes running
down the stairs saying, “She took my husband away from me just to hurt me!”
Luciana looks up at Lil and says, “Señora, please!” Lil just looks at Luciana
and tells her, “As much as it hurts to say the truth, your mother destroyed my
marriage. She went with my husband KNOWING he was married to me and she didn’t
care.” Marta comes out to Lu saying, “No, no, no, it wasn’t like that at all. I
swear they weren’t.” But Lil goes on, “I didn’t say anything. I suffered alone
with this. And why?” (Lil looks at Fernanda) “Because of you dear. I didn’t
want to destroy your illusions.” Marta tries to get out of it by saying she
only said those words to annoy Lilian and goes on to say, “I’m simply not
capable of doing those things.”

In this episode, both Miguel and Carito survive their torture via that grungy Mark for now. If only the audience could be spared from grungy Mark. David is torn - should he get a second opinion or go with Dr. Evil Martin Mull's (bought by the succubis) opinion? And everyone is stunned at the last thing we hear...

Vino el Amor, Lunes 3/13/17 Chapter 92: Extreme Distress
Some
scenes combined for clarity:
David got on Tano's case for
getting involved with Fernanda. He started blaming him for Fernanda's
depression. Tano tried explaining why it wasn't like that. Their
relationship started on her birthday and he was trying to balance it
so that he could return to college and so she could pick up her
grades. She came to him all upset because of her differences with
him (David) and wanting them to run away together. He had refused
and she became angry with him. He would not comply with her request
that they run away together out of respect for him and for his own
father. David asked whether he knew why Fernanda was in the hospital
and he said “Yes, because she took some pills.”
“Yes. Because she wanted to
take her own life.”
Tano looked shocked. Both should
have been.

Vino el Amor, #91, Friday Mar 10, 2017: Love Hurts
Paco tells Miguel and Susan that he doesn't want to talk to Gutierrez. Susan and Mig thank him for his help and decide to wait for the truck to arrive.
Luci thinks she and Dave will talk to Fernanda when she gets better and everything will be fine, but Marta makes it clear that she thinks Fernanda is in the hospital because of Luci.
People give Susan and Mig funny looks as they pass them on the street. Susan is getting nervous. Mig lets Susan bail and decides to give Carito another chance.
Luci tells Marta that leaving David is no way to solve their problems. That will just cause more pain. "It seems that I don't matter to you," Luci says. "This is all about Fernanda. I need you to be more understanding with me. All I want of you as my mother is to hug me and console me instead of losing the love of my life."
Mark complains to Juan: "You're not my dad, I don't have to come when you call." He says that Carito deserves to die. Juan urges him not to do anything stupid. Mark replies, "If you're doing this because of Perla, just give me my money and then we can end this."

Vino el Amor #90; Thursday, March 9, 2017: Fernanda wakes up, but still angry
We left off yesterday with David cradling Fernanda in his
arms. DisGrace comes in and then the whole family walks in. David says he doesn’t
know how many pills Fer took David carries Fer downstairs so he can have her
ready to go for the paramedics. As everyone goes out Fer’s bedroom door,
DisGrace says to Luciana, “So, I hope you happy now!”

Vino el Amor #89; Wednesday March 8, 2017: The search for Ferzilla and vino el intento de suicidio
We begin with Luciana and David again pledging their love
for one another. Luciana tells him that their dreams of having a lovely family
together are about to pass by the wayside. But David tells her to never give
up, to have faith, and not to throw in the towel. Luciana says, “But to think
how I could lose you or that this could ruin your family, it just terrifies me.”
David tells her he is not going to let this happen. He goes on and says, “These
are the tests of life, the day to day family problems, the difficulties with
children.” Luciana says, “Yes, you are right. I am ready to face all of that
with you.”

Vino el Amor #88, Tuesday, March 7, 2017: Vino el Fer Whisperers, or Not
In this episode, Fer is upset. VERY UPSET. She's running here. She's running there. She's running back. Many try to reason with her. Few, if any, succeed. She's in full meltdown mode. Who will be the Fer Whisperer? Will anyone be the Fer Whisperer?! Please, someone, step in and soon.
Also, Gutierrez frets about his upcoming charity event, which I think is going to be screencap gold given the participants and the initial planning session. Carito and Perla are at odds, while Miguel is on the track for finding out what's going on with the illegal trafficking.

Some
scenes combined for clarity:
Luciana remained calm in the face
of the screaming banshee Graciela, who swore she would turn David's
children against her. She finally delivered a sound slap at the
insult to her moral fibre and stared her enemy right in the face.
Too cowardly to answer back in kind, Gracie delivered one more such
insult before turning tail and leaving. Luciana slapped the table in
frustration.

Vino el Amor #85 Thursday March 2, 2017: Vino el tiempo para avanzar (time to move forward)
We begin where we left off yesterday as David announces
to DisGrace that he is planning to buy her out of their partnership and
dissolve it. DisGrace is not happy about this and begins to protest. “What”,
says DisGrace, “Are you saying that I’m just like Juan? How could you? I
thought you said everything was fine with us. Oh, I see you are doing this
because of the olive orchard thing.” David says, “I’ve already told you that I
wanted to dissolve our partnership, it’s just the best thing to do.” DisGrace
continues to whine, “But WHYYYYYYYYY……????” Dave explains, “Look, I’m doing
this for my children because I don’t want them to have any problems later on
down the line.” DisGrace replies, “Well do you really think I’d leave them
unprotected?” (Yeah DisGrace, I DO think you’d take all their money and run
with it.) Dave says, “No I don’t but things have changed and it’s clear to me
that you cannot separate our professional and personal realms together. It’s
just best that I do things this way.”

Out in the vineyard, David tells Luci his kids are backing off letting him have a relationship with any kind
of evil stepmother. He doesn’t understand their change of opinion. Luci
persuades him to delay saying anything right now about their relationship,
rather than risk upsetting the whole grape cart they’ve filled with their juicy dreams.
She’ll keep working on her relationship with Fer. They exchange “Te Amos” and a
river of spit.

David
and Luci getting more face time but, sadly, there kisses look a little painful.
Anyway, I'm buyin' it because I wanted them together. (Lila) I really have to fault Lucia, her besos seem
emotionless and robotic. If they are really to be believable together, they
must emanate some genuine chemistry which is sadly lacking currently. (Diana)
Sonia is telling Leon in the kitchen that Lil
is not in a very good mood since Gut left her high and dry. Then the talk turns toward their latest romance novel.
Leon
lets her know he better not be a substitute for anybody (like El Patrón, Sr.
David), not like some character in their romance novel. She swears he's not.
The Leon that takes no crap is kinda sexy. (Niece) I'm thinking these two might have a real future
with each other after all! (Diana)
Bobby & Charlie are in town heading for the candy store counter, discussing candy
choices and evil stepmother choices when a pig-tailed beauty enters the store.
Charlie pushes Bobby towards her. Bobby is delighted she speaks soccer. He
finds out she also likes video games and she quickly seduces him into a date.
Now
looks like Bobby will have a little girlfriend too. Gawd. (Tofie) Did we really
need to introduce a girlfriend for Bobby? What is he..8 ? (Susanlynn) Bobby's new girlfriend maybe will go on about
how her new Mom is the coolest thing since sliced bread. (Kirby)

This episode was kind of a mish-mash transitional episode. David is happy, not grumpy, but he makes a lot of other people grumpy with the news that he's got a new girlfriend! And her name is not Gracie, which makes Gracie quite unhappy. Fer is happy about her new boyfriend, but not so happy about Dad's new girlfriend. Miguel still seems like he's heading for a new novia himself though, even though he still keeps reaching out to the old one.
(Just a small note that I'm scheduling this post early because I'll be busy all day Wednesday and Thursday. So if I missed anything, just please correct me in the comments. Thanks in advance for all comments!)

Vino El Amor #78 Friday 2/17/17 -- Every party needs a pooper that's why we invited you....
No party is a party without a little drama, tears, fights, the party crasher and that one guest who has to be a party pooper! I counted three in this episode.
Fer can't believe
this is happening, but Tano says this kiss is filled with all of the affection
he feels for her. She's a magical
girl..a princess and the more he gets to know her the more fond he becomes of
her. He thanks her for everything she's
done and for making him smile again.
Fer says if tonight was already perfect, he's made it unforgettable.
They share another sweet kiss before Tano thinks it's best they go back inside
before Fer's father realizes they're missing.
Fer says she'll treasure this moment forever.
