Me Declaro Culpable #9, 2/28/20: Shushshsh; It’s the Fox vs. the Nag
We left off where Franco is informing LaLoca that he’s had
enough and he’s moving out of the house.
Read more »
(First a Fashion Note: Roberta is wearing a see through print
blouse with gathers between elbow and wrist and a black halter bra underneath.
She’s divided in half by a 5” patent leather belt. Her short, tight, black
skirt has seemingly been enhanced in the rear. It actually is quite a striking
ensemble, just not on her.)
Bertie is all Katy Bar
the (Barn) Door
She is trying to keep Franco from abandoning their home and
hearth. She runs through a mental list of all the reasons he can’t leave her.
He’s deaf to any of the reasons. She’s convinced that he’s leaving her for that
ZORRA. (Time out for vocabulary: zorra = whore, a puta, perra AND a fox. Foxes are
quite beautiful animals and women can be foxy. I’ll leave it at that and use “fox”
to describe Alba, for I’m sure we’ll be hearing “zorra” repeated endlessly.) In
addition, adds Bertie, she’s a killer. How could he have stooped so low. She
wants to know the truth, that she’s Franco’s lover. Franco says she’s pathetic.
He just can’t take it anymore, peeling her off of his jacket. She bares her
teeth, like an old nag and swears she’ll kill him.

Me Declaro Culpable #7, 2/26/20: The plot thickens
Here goes, Patio. First time to post on the main page. Yikes. If I mess this up, I hope one of the recapping team can fix it. Aaaack! I am sweating bullets!
Some scenes are combined, some glossed over. And if I misinterpreted any dialog, please correct it? Our characters were very busy today.
We open at with Natalia & Paolo at the park. She is doing a good job of walking in those 4-inch spike heels on the brick-paver/cobblestone path. Ah, to be young again. Her phone rings, and Paolo makes snarky comment that it's probably loverboy Julian. (it is)
Vile Julian tells Nat he has the phone number of the guy in Toronto who she H&Red (Hit and Ran) and encourages her to call the guy. While she is engrossed in her convo, Paolo leaves.
Alba apologizes to Ingrid for the chokehold (girl learned some life skills in prison that might serve her well, later on?). Ingrid rattles on that she never had a kid and doesn't know what that's like, but she has taken care of Gabe all his life and saw more of him than Alba has. Alba agrees, but I want my son. Now.
Gabe calls Alba pleading with her to get him out of Ingrid's Crazy House. He can't take it anymore. Alba says she will talk to the lawyer. (Awww, here is another excuse to see Franco)
Julian is coaching the fake "victim" on how to act and what to say when Natalia calls him. Dirtbag.

Me Declaro Culpable #6, 2/25/20: Screaming Meanies
Bufete Monroy:
Franco and Alba make an after-dark exit from the despacho. As he's handing her into the car to drive her back home -- i.e. the coffee shop, which is close enough for her to walk every morning with a fully laden coffee tray, but juarever -- he notices a flat tire. Turns out he doesn't know how to change a flat because all he ever does is hand porn and lawyer stuffs, so she does it for him. He calls her a little box o' surprises and grins goofily.
Meanwhile, Roberta is spying on them from her own parked car and just can't handle all that jack action. She hits the gas and tries to flatten Alba like a panqueque but only succeeds in pushing them into each other's arms. Well, so much for that plan.
Casa Urzua:
Julian is for some reason all alone in a house he doesn't live in, desperately trying to convince Nati over the phone not to turn herself in. She hangs up on him -- twice! -- and then refuses to answer his calls. He's just gotten out the requisite "no puede ser!" when Roberta crashes through the front door looking even more assymetrical than usual and starts chugging a bottle of whisky from the bar. They argue over who has the bigger problem, and of course Roberta wins because she's crazier. She peppers him with "sueltames" and "largates" and then runs upstairs and swallows the contents of every bottle on her nightstand.
Depa Duenas:
Ingrid flashes back to her brother's death scene, including a few small details we didn't know about. Apparently after Alba flipped the switch, she freaked out and switched it right back on again, but she was so overcome by grief and guilt and pretty tears that she didn't notice her husband was still alive. Ingrid rushed in screaming and chased her away, then very deliberately -- and permanently -- turned the machine back off. "Sorry, brother," she said. "I had to do it."

Me Declaro Culpable #5, 2/24/20: Three Hysterics and a Funeral
There was a lot of wailing, weeping and gnashing of teeth this episode. Roberta, Ingrid and Natalia were all fighting for the Hysteria Honors. I'll let you decide who, if anybody, won the grand prize. But let's start at the beginning....
The breakfast chez Paolo is going badly. He's venting about the horrid person who hit him and left him for dead, as an anguished Natalia listens-- and gradually realizes she's the culprit who ruined his life. Way to kill the mood, Paolo, not to mention her appetite. He's all over himself apologizing and she's all over herself getting out of there. Seems there's an urgent errand she has to run for her dad. Leaving Paolo and the breakfast behind, she flees at top speed. And in such a hurry she leaves her cellphone behind. Pal Dante thinks it's a ploy. "Hey, just means she wants to see you again." Paolo's not so sure. He's afraid he blew it with his angry rant about the accident.
At the office, relationships are equally fraught. Roberta is fixing Alba with a death glare, and chastising her husband for representing a heartless lady who "unplugged" her husband. Alba wisely departs, while Roberta is merely ramping up with more. When Franco quietly points out the lady has none nothing to Robs to merit that treatment, she snarls "Oh yes she has! She's come between us!"

CarayCaray Lexicon for The Patio of Lowered Expectations - Part II
RECAPPER-SPECIFIC GLOSSARY
Recaplet – A very
short recap (Blue Lass on CQM)
Mini-recaplet – An
even shorter recap (Somewhere in the mists of Caray, brought back by Doris in Y
Mañana Será Otro Día.)
Bunnycap –
Variation on the above (Susanlynn meant to say Bonny Recap, but tablet didn’t
like it and preferred Bunnycap.)
Recrap – To be
forced to produce a cogent retelling of an episode which is totally
indigestible; commonly applied when the whole telenovela falls into this
category.
Craptastic – Late
addition provided by Doris, remembering Beckster who used it in FELS to explain
crap that is fantastic. (Example: Seriously, we spent the first two nights of
this craptastic story, watching Bernardo make sweet Feb/Dec love to young
mentally deficient Libia. (Feb/Dec as in not even in the same year).….Since
that time we have endured the same drawn out, overplayed hand. The only thing
that has changed is somewhere along the dull endless path, Sofie popped a kid
out, Juan went on a sabbatical to visit Indians, who thought he was smart, how
sad is that?)

CarayCaray Lexicon for The Patio of Lowered Expectations - Part I
PATIO-SPECIFIC GLOSSARY
Patio of Lowered
Expectations – A virtual location furnished with tables, umbrellas and
drinks of choice. Viewers choose a table around which to congregate and support
characters. Seats not reserved. Shifting to other tables usually follows
shifting plot lines. Viewerville has learned that in order to enjoy this patio,
love, ecstasy, hope, solid storyline and believable characters are rare, but
enough to make it possible to get to La Boda at the end. (Note: In the last
couple of years, bodas have fallen out of favor, replaced by a paltry El
Fin—thus further lowering expectations.)
Petite Patio –
This occurs when a telenovela sinks under its own weight due to an atrocious story,
regardless of the quality of the cast, direction and filming. As the Patio
shrinks, what is left is the Petite Patio, committed to each other, rather than
to the telenovela. (JudyB, in reference to the Patio during Y Mañana Sera Otro
Día.)

Primetime on Univisión (#2): Ringo, Amor Eterno, Rubí- Week of Feb. 10, 2020
Greetings, Caraymates!
Welcome to page 2 of Primetime TNs/Series! “Rubí” is still kickin’ it; and we have Jarifa providing recaps for it! Diana and RGVChick are providing recaps for “Ringo”; and, AnonFri is recapping “Amor Eterno” with assistance from Clara. If some other brave soul(s) would like to contribute a recap or just some highlights for RLPDSV, AE, or Rubí*, I’m sure the help would be appreciated. You can also add to or clarify scenes/details, especially those that are favs or not-so-favs. The TNs covered by this page are:
7PM - Ringo: La Pelea de Su Vida: Ep. 56-57
8PM – Amor Eterno: Season 2, Episode 142-143
9PM – Rubí : Ep. 17-18
Friendly reminder: PLEASE put the name of the telenovela you're referring to at the top of your post so readers can easily find the conversations they're looking for. (You can shorten the title to one word, i.e., “Ringo”.)
Discussion pages will be posted on Mondays and Thursdays at 9PM.
