Caray, Caray!

Alternate titles – “I am Spartacus”

“Gentlemen Don’t Steal Kisses and Tell”

“A Man’s Got his Patience and Here’s Where Mine Ends.”

That last one is a shout out to George Michael from way back in the 90s (or was that the late 80s?). Margarita here, for NinaK (sorry if I got you and 5ft confused!) Feel free to retag this puppy if I did it wrong, again.

This one had some funny interruptions (nice levity to the icky situations) and some fun little sayings.

Leftovers:
Karla giddily skips chanting “I’m getting married” and overhears Val & Rocky as they go to knock boots in his boudoir. On her way to spilling the chisme about the “cuchiplacheo” (no clue what this means, but I’m guessing it’s something about being “in flagrant”) she spots Andrea who tells her to wait so she can find a way to get more mileage out of this.

Over at a fancy restaurant, Mili jokes about the fish “a la talla” (to the size) asking what size it is. Flo humors her telling her it’s cooked in charcoal and “zarandeado” (shook, jostled). Mili says “sounds good, just don’t jostle mine too much.” Hugo laughs at her joke and Flo thinks it’s the perfect opportunity to drop the bombshell of catching Al and Mili kissing. On to the new stuff: Flo tells them to get a room, etc, while Al tells her not to make the scene. No offense, but he doesn’t have a leg to stand on. Flo then turns on Hugo saying "I don't know how much of a man you are, but you should control your little woman. If you can't please her yourself, don't send her to my husband to finish the job!" Oh snap! Hugo tells her not to get in with him and Mili begs him to go home, she’ll explain everything there. They leave and now Al demands he and Flo do the same. He thankfully has the decency to drop some cash on the table for the food they’re no longer eating, but that they are probably already making. One must remember good restaurant etiquette.

When we last left our skank heroines, Andrea explains to Karla that the instant gratification of telling Luci her kid is boinking the chauffeur won’t do much in the long run. Patience grasshopper.

In her bedroom, Luci and Damian discuss his newest plan to get rid of Karla. Luci has gotten bored with torturing him (though she throws in a jab about mixing with those of an inferior level) so she agrees to give him the money for his scheme ‘cause she can’t have some lowly employee attached to the Arango name.

Karla’s still beating the dead horse saying that if Luci catches Val with Rocky he’ll get fired for sure. Andrea says she’ll take care of everything and tells her to scram. Karla exits with a pissy “si señora.”

Over at the convent, all are toasting to Yolanda and Romulo’s happy nuptials. Gamuza says how happy he is that since dad found Yoli, he stopped drinking and now he has a mom ;) Gloria gives Romu a kiss on the cheek. She hasn’t forgiven him, but it’s a start.

Al is berating Flo for pretending she wanted to play nice so she could ambush everyone. She yells at Al for not wanting to make a scene at the restaurant but having no problem doing it on a public street. She warns him not to cheat again ‘cause he doesn’t know what she’s capable of. I wonder if she kept daddy’s “matones for hire” rolodex.” He tells her to shut up. The Hummer arrives and we are spared the rest of this tiff.

Over in a cab, Hugo asks Mili why she kissed Al. She confesses he kissed her. Liar! You kissed him back! But I digreess... She’s tried to keep him at arm's length and nothing has happened that she should be ashamed of. He trusts her. The cab driver interjects what he doesn’t trust is the traffic lights. They are like his “gorda” (term of endearment for a significant other meaning “chubby” or fat) who always gives him a green light, and then switches to a “stop.” Hugo tells him to let him speak to his wife. He turns to Mili and says he knows it’s all Al’s fault and that he’ll put a stop to this. Cabby says “no, put on your warning lights to avoid an accident.” Mili doesn’t want to cause a fight and Hugo says there’s no option. Mili’s his wife and Al has to respect her. Cabby congratulates him and Mili tells him to stop being a chismoso and start driving ‘cause the light turned green.

Over at Rocky’s room, he tells Val how he started a “cuenta” (account) at the bank where he saved his money from the Taco Naco, the tire shop, and the chauffeur gig. It’s not to say “¡qué bruto, qué barbaro!” (literally “how brute, how barbarous” – basically saying it’s not a HUGE deal) what a big account! But it should be enough for a little apartment when they marry. She says that is “lo que cuenta” (what counts). Ah, the romance of puns and catch phrases... He says it’s a shame Connie won’t be paying for the wedding reception, but Val explains that he will never keep his word and if he and Luci found out they would do anything in their power to split them up. Took her how many years to catch on?

Connie, Luci, Nestor and Damian wait in the dining room for Andrea to grace them with her presence. Luci tells Brau to serve dinner and Connie tells him to wait for Andrea. Nestor tries to bring the peace by smiling and asking Luci if they could wait just five more minutes, then punctuates this by playing footsie under the table. Luci says she can’t deny him anything when he asks so nicely. Damian warns Braulio not to slip on all the “melcocha” (thick concentrated honey) that’s being spread around. Luci says to Connie “you never waited for me dear.” Connie replies “it’s because I have a ferocious appetite dear.” Damian asks Nestor “How hungry are you dear, I mean, cuñado.” Nice little needle skipping on a record punctuates the already absurd situation. Nestor says he’s hungry but can wait another five minutes and gives Luci a look that tells her she’s dessert. Connie thanks Nestor for all his help in his political career. Damian says it’s great that at least in politics they share their ideology. We now see that Connie has also started playing footsie with Luci! She gets quite flustered and asks Brau if those five minutes have passed and he informs her they still have three.

Val and Rocky start getting busy as Andrea bursts in with the excuse of telling Rocky she wants him to drive her somewhere. She acts all fake impactada about how Connie’s gonna want to kill Rocky and Luci will be even worse. Val begs and pleads and Andrea makes a song and dance about how she always saw Val as a friend and wants her to be happy. She says she can see that Rocky makes Val happy and she’s going to help them. This is a great opportunity for them to smooth out their differences now that Andrea’s gonna be Val’s second mom. She leaves and they discuss whether or not they can trust her. Rocky thinks she’s not to trust, not after all the crap she pulled on Mili. He wants to fess up and in a worse case scenario, they can run away. Val fears Connie would find them no matter where they went.

Back at the kitchen, Socorro congratulates Gloria on her parents getting married. She says she’s happy for mom and bro. She apologizes and explains it was a small family thing and that’s why she couldn’t even invite Mili. Chamuco got to go ‘cause he’s her hubby apparent. Karla interjects that for her wedding she will invite everyone in the world, but not them ‘cause they’re not in it. Lina asks who she plans to invite when she doesn’t even have family save Soco ‘cause her step-sis ain’t coming. Gloria adds that perhaps she might get people to come if she offered them money. Brau interrupts the snap fest to tell them they’ll be serving dinner soon. Karla brags that her wedding is set for Sunday.

Andrea finally lands and apologizes for her delay. Luci snaps that she wasted her time if she was spending it doing her makeup. Andrea remarks that Luci always dines in frumpy clothing. Brau goes to get dinner ready and Nestor, for no apparent reason, volunteers that he has a long day tomorrow that includes dropping off some documents at the French embassy. Luci tells him to send Morgan. Lina and Karla arrive and Damian tells Karla she should sit with them. Karla offers to go change. But Luci tells her they’re not waiting any longer. Damian tells her just to take off her coif. Karla sits and immediately starts talking trash about Lina’s work.

Next morning Karla’s still bragging about her night at the grownup table to her mom. Soco’s not too convinced and is pretty sure Damian’s up to something. Karla accuses her of being a “mosca en la sopa” (fly in the soup). Val walks in asking for Rocky and Soco tells her he and Horacio went to drop off some papers for Nestor at Luci’s request. Why did it take two you ask? Wait and see... Soco then runs out ‘cause she left some tortillas on the fire. Karla starts busting Val’s chops about spending the night with Rocky. Val begs her not to tell and she tells her it’s too late ‘cause Luci already knows. When did that happen you ask? It didn’t!!!!

Mili and her chiclets are sitting in the garden and Mili’s happy that Gloria’s folks are married. Gloria says they’re not her parents, they’re her mom and some loser. Lina tells her to knock it off. Mili says Gamuza must be happy and Gloria agrees. Just then a very sad Hugo walks by and tells Mili he’s off to the office and will see her later. The girls ask what’s up and Mili tells them that Al kissed her and Flor caught them and told in front of Hugo. The girls are quite impactadas and then want all the details. Mili confesses that he makes her feel like she’s floating and in another world, but then she thinks of Hugo and feels terrible ‘cause she doesn’t want to betray him. Lina informs her that she might not be betraying him physically, but her thoughts sure are ‘cause she can’t forget Alex.

Over at Flo and Alex’s, Flo reminds him they’re seeing the OB in the afternoon. Al says nothing and she asks if he’s giving her the silent treatment. He tells her there’s nothing to say, so why waste saliva. Ouch! He tells her he’s off to work and will come get her later. Flo demands a goodbye kiss and he smiles, walks over, and gives her pregnant belly a kiss and tells the fetus that he loves her, “be good and don’t give mommy any grief.” Flor stops him on his way out the door and gives him a kiss on the lips. She then asks if he thinks of Mili every time she (Flo) kisses him. He smiles and says “and also when you don’t kiss me.”

Andrea’s in her and Connie’s room on the phone telling someone “he” is on his way to the embassy. He needs to stop him on some low traffic street and he knows what to do. If he does a good job she’ll pay extra. Now Val appears and is very worried ‘cause Karla told Luci about Rocky. She asks if Connie knows and Andrea assures her it’s unlikely ‘cause he would have told her something and he’d be pretty pissed. Andrea now appears to tie things together and says she heard Luci make a very suspicious phone call this morning. She fears Morgan may be in danger... That skank is an evil genius!

Rocky and Horacio are driving on a desolate street (the better to fall in Andrea’s trap my dear) and Horacio tells Rocky that maybe Andrea’s on the up and up about not telling. Maybe she’s trying to score points with Val since Connie loves her so much. Rocky says Andrea gives him a “mala espina” (literally a bad thorn, but it’s more like a bad feeling) and Horacio tells him that Andrea’s interests have changed and now that she’s going to marry the “mero mero” (the main guy), it behooves her to have his lil’ girl on her side. It also behooves Rocky to have the “mera mera” of the FIL on his side. Rocky’s not so sure and doesn’t think any good can come from lying and hiding his love. Horacio thinks it’s a good idea to stay in hiding ‘cause the patrones probably won’t pardon his life again. On cue, two other cars come out of nowhere and appear on either side of theirs. Four guys jump out with guns and tell them to get out of the car.

Over at the Belmonte office, Hugo tells Al to keep his hands off his woman. Lothario Al says’s he’ll try, but he can’t be sure. He wants to be sincere and tells Hugo he hasn’t give up. Hugo tells him Mili belongs to him. As if???? Al replies that his heart, his soul, and his thoughts belong to Mili. You sure that’s your heart Al? Hugo can’t change that, and neither can he (Al). He knows Milis’ Hugo’s wife, but Al loves and desires her, and there are times when he loses his mind and lets impulse take over and that’s why he kissed her. The nerve of this guy! That’s also why he doesn’t think he can contain himself. Hugo takes a verbal stab and tells Al that when his wife is in bed with him, she doesn’t think about Al. Al parries and redirects with a “Please, I know from a very good source that you haven’t touched her.” Hugo tells him he’s wrong but it’s a pretty lost cause. Al tells him that Mili hasn’t given herself to Hugo because she still loves him, and if mom and her lies couldn’t destroy that love, neither can Hugo. Hugo tells Al that he’s not here to discuss Al’s love for Mili. Mili’s his wife and Al better stay away and stop accosting her or he’ll be sorry. Al tells him it’s out of his hands because he and Mili are like one. Hugo asks if Al wants to be her first. Al says no, I want to be the only one. Hugo goes to punch him, but Al blocks it. Poor Hugo, I think the crazy’s coming back...

When we last left our heroes, Hugo breaks free from Al’s grip and tells him his patience is running out. Mili wants nothing with Al and he should leave her alone. Al replies that if Mili didn’t love him she wouldn’t forget about the rest of the world like he does and she wouldn’t let him kiss her. Hugo asks if there was more than one and Al forgets that gentlemen don’t kiss and tell and replies that he provoked them all. Love doesn’t have rules. He’s fully aware that what he’s doing is wrong. Hugo calls him a cynic and Al says it’s because he and Mili were separated unjustly, and he’s sorry Hugo married a woman who doesn’t love him. Hugo reminds Al it was Al’s idea and he should respect Hugo’s marriage and respect Mili. She married him because she wanted nothing with Al and he should stop making her suffer. “Don’t do it for me, do it for her.” Hugo storms out and Al’s phone rings. It’s Flo, you know, his pregnant wife, asking him why he’s not home to take her to the OB!

Back at the desolate street, Horacio and Rocky decide they better do what the nice men with the guns want and get out of the car. Rocky offers the car keys and the main goon tells him someone gave him and his “cuadernos” (literally notebooks, but I think it’s supposed to be a pun for “compañeros,” or companions, like when Gloria referred to Hugo as Mili’s mariachi, really meaning “marido” or husband) a lot of dough to attack a guy named “Morgan.” In a moment out of “Spartacus,” both Rocky and Horacio take turns telling the matones that each of them is Morgan. The main goon says Morgan’s supposed to be the chauffeur and Rocky was behind the wheel, more hijinks ensue as Horacio claims Rocky’s his apprentice, etc. Rocky pulls out his license – “Ricardo Juárez, aka Rocky, aka Morgan.” Horacio says he can’t have two aliases and the main goon says he’s fed up and will just beat up both of them. Horacio’s saved by the wonders of camera phones, ‘cause another goon gets Rocky’s picture sent and now they know who’s who. One holds Horacio back while the rest beat up Rocky. Main goon tells him it’s so he’ll stay away from Valeria Belmonte. They finally leave and Horacio asks him if he’s ok and Morgan replies he now knows why they say love hurts.

Back at the mansion, Andrea tells Val to calm down. Val wants to confront mom and Andrea tells her to wait until they know what Luci’s up to. Val’s terrified that Karla will tell Connie like she told Luci. Andrea assures her she’ll take care of Karla. Val thanks her and Andrea says there’s no need. She knows what it’s like to fall in love with the “wrong man.” She lays it on thick saying she loves Connie with all her heart and that she tried to fight it but... Val bites and says sometimes you can’t win against your own heart.

Karla goes to see her chicken pimp and asks for some money to get clothes for the honeymoon. He tells her he’d rather she wore nothing. She likes his thinking but says she’d like to wear something nice to the beach and to dinner. She can’t go wearing a rag or her uniform. In case we all forgot, Karla purchased a rather extensive wardrobe back when she was blackmailing Connie, but I guess it’s all three years out of season. Anywhoo, she also plans to buy some red lencería (lingerie) ‘cause he likes her in it. He finally digs for his wallet and she grabs a bunch of cash out of it and tells him he’s awfully generous. He immediately calls frat boy Fernando so he can start putting the moves on Karla.

Connie’s in his office giving Mat the Rat the proof he needs to make Al look like an embezzler and other shady things. Mat is slightly taken aback with Connie’s handiwork and Connie admits he got inspired and the whole thing relaxed him, like therapy. Did he go too far? Mat says not to worry, it’s perfect. Connie reminds him Al can’t see the docs and Mat assures him he’ll destroy them once Mari sees them. Connie reminds him not to forget they have to split the pie (actually he says “pastel” – cake, but you get the point) ‘cause he can be a dangerous enemy. Mat assures him he doesn’t forget his friends.

Outside Casa Belmonte, Karla hails a cab and frat boy tails her in his bike.

Now at the servants’ table, Gloria’s not eating and Soco asks if she didn’t like the cake. Gloria replies it’s not the cake, it’s just that her tummy hurts. Are you all thinking what I’m thinking? Soco says she must be blocked and offers to make her an oregano tea, and now Gloria gets nauseous. Oh yeah, we see where this is headed... Mili echoes that it does sound pretty foul, but Soco assures them that it’s good. Val runs in asking if Rocky’s back ‘cause she’s worried about the delay. Soco tells her not to worry, “have some cake.” Just then Horacio comes in with Rocky and he starts telling them about the four guys with the guns. Rocky interrupts and says they were carjackers and Rocky tried to fight them back. Mili chastises him for doing so, let them take the car! Horacio corroborates saying Rocky likes to be a hero. Val takes Rocky to his room to nurse his wounds and Gloria goes to fetch the first aid kit. Soco puches Horacio on the shoulder for not helping Rocky and he says he tried, but Rocky wouldn’t let him. She and Lina decide it’s for the best that he didn’t get hurt.

Hugo broods in a bar over pint and remembers Mili telling him she would never betray him, then Al telling him that Mili let him kiss her, then Flo telling him he’s not man enough. He gulps his beer and doesn’t really like it. It doesn’t bode well when you drink things you don’t even enjoy the taste off...

Mat is at Mari’s pad bringing her the proof he promised. He makes her promise not to tell anyone, even Flo. It was a crime for him to get the info out of the office and he could get in some serious trouble, but he did it for her because he luuuuvs her. Mari is quite impactada over the audit info. Mat says that’s why Connie wanted to fire Al, but then decided to forgive him as long as Al gave the money back. Mari can’t believe Al would steal from his own family and Mat says Flo probably has no idea of the kind of man she married. He says it doesn’t mean that Al would do the same to her and Flo though... Think things calmly...

Friday: Mili tells Hugo she’s trying to stay away from Al, but he doesn’t look too convinced. Flo’s icky words echo in Hugo’s ears. Mili asks what she can do to convince him and he grabs her by the neck and tells her to consummate the marriage. It has the look of potential rape...

jgmsdomqWe start with Sara meeting Mommy dearest. Huge hugs and crying for our crying scale, I’ll let you decide the level. There was never a day Zully didn’t think of her or keep her in her prayers. Roll of the eyes from Sara.

Jaime and Snorty are at the arguing again. He thinks they shouldn’t have done the separation and he never thought there wouldbe such great consequences, QUE? You take away your brother's only kid with his beloved wife and tell them it's dead but put her away in an orphanage and never tells either of them of the other, and you don't think the consequences are that great? Hmmmmm.....

Ma suffered for kid. Blessed that hey are together. More rolling eyes and she curses Lorena for making her have to do this.

Lore cries that she wishes she had her parents. She begs the virgin to find them.

More happiest day of life by Mom and kid. She can’t wait for Pa and the rest of the family to arrive. She is her Pa’s only child. Sara tells herself to be patient with all this sticky sweet, this can’t last long.

Diana is walking with Vasco, she asks if he believes in bad visions/feelings. He’s never had one, but she has a bad feeling something is happening at home, more than just what Lorena’s news is. She doesn’t want to go back though so they sit.

Diana asks what he thinks of Lore. He says she’s great. Di says it’s love at first sight but he says no, not like that, more that he’s known her his whole life. Di is mad that she’s always hanging around the house. Vasco says well, of course, because she works for your Ma, besides she has no family so her life has been difficult and Di says well she doesn’t need to take mine though. She then lets out a big yawn and he wonders if he is boring her. She says no, it's just everything going on, so he invites her for coffee but wants to invite one more person.

We get a tourist commercial for Mexico City by the Three’s Company Mexican style as they wander around the city and they decide to go to the National Museum of History or the Castillo de Chapultepec.

Back at the discovery, Zully speaks badly about “Abue” and that she will pay for this but Sara asks not to speak badly about her, but tell her instead about Pa.

Alonslow comes up to a crying Lore and gives her a hug.

Sara thinks this room they have given her is awful, she was better off in the orphanage. She finds some eye drops to help her fake cry because she’s all dried up. She was never that full in the first place. Just then Pa Omar comes home and gets the news from Zully about his new found old daughter. Sara, freshened by eyedrops, runs up and hugs her Pa. “Papa” she repeats a thousand times crying. Doesn’t make it so...and Omar’s look kind of confirms that for us.

Lore and Alonslow are chatting about the encuentro and that Sara has been lied to this whole time. Lore thinks it’s not so bad, she has her parents now. Lore wishes she was in Sara’s place. (smirk).

Lore wishes she too had a family and Al says she shouldn’t give up and takes yet another chance to offer himself as a husband to form a family.

G-Pa is showing Betti how to Mambo and there is generational bonding as he tells her that Maestro Damaso Perez Prado invented this art. Mean mommy comes out and wonders what the scandal is. He tells her to cut it out and gets her to dance eventually too after teasing her.

Ma and Vasco and Diana, now there’s an odd trio, are having coffee. Ma admits the liposuction did her some good on the outside, but she hurts inside and wants him back. He wants the subject changed so Ma picks an even better one and asks him if he went to look for Mariana. He swears that is over and dead. Ma doesn’t understand, he’s exchanging more for less. At that moment Diana smartly excuses herself to the restroom. Ma thinks she has little tact for mentioning such a thing and Vasco defends that she is being made very uncomfortable with Ma’s indirect snarks at her. Ma says well you are not her class. He says she’s very kind and nice. ma misses that point completely. She says she isn’t going to talk about family stuff in front of that naca though. She does have something she needs to tell him out of her earshot.

Al and Lore are still chatting about how awful what the Abue did was even though Sara wants to pardon her. Alonzlo thinks maybe that’s not so bad but Lorena says no way.

Ma is already eating with Pa and kid. It’s happy until Pa wants to put his Ma and bro in jail. Sara begs not, that they have repented. She knows this, Omar keeps pressing even though Zully says it’s not Sara’s fault and just leave it for today to not ruin the great day. Sara keeps telling him they’ve changed and besides she’s in the will...whoops. Duh, that was stupid. Omar wonders if that’s all she cars about the money and that she is being bought. Suddenly Zully changes sides and agrees that money can’t make up for all the years of suffering that woman has caused and maybe they are trying to buy Sara off. Sara swears it's not the money just a measure of her regret. Omar is not persuaded and he is off to give them a piece of his mind or his boot whichever.


Al strokes Lore’s hair during her wine induced sleep. Eventually he wakes up her up with tea, and says it’s time for her to go home even though he’d love for her to stay. Lore says she won’t fall into the temptation and he says well one day.


The happy Trio returns home after their romp in the park. Rossy is jealous of how well her beau and Ma get along. She wanted time alone with him, but he is smart and keeps on flattering Ma, and tells Rossy she is being rude.

Next we see mad brother beat up sorry brother. Heck of good too for older guys. He really socks it to him and kicks him in the stomach. Sorry bro calls off his staff to leave him to his punishment. He is repenitent.

I really like the pepper shown with pomegranate sprinked over top, that looks soooo good!

Anyway, we are back to the fighting and Jaime tells Omar to go ahead and kill him.

Back at home Sara is worried about Omar's state and that he is capable of committing a tragedy. Zulema tells her not to worry, but Sara says she needs to go and defend that old bag.

Back at the mansion, Jaime is hoping that allowing this beating will be all Omar needs to feel better and this will make up for the guilt he's felt all this time so he encourages Omar to wail on him more. Yeah, that's doubtful, but nice try anyway, Jaime. He's doing a decent cry job though. Omar swears he will make them pay, he's not satisfied with the tear bit either.

Vasco and co arrives outside of the house and sends Di inside. Ma proceeds to tell him the lot of Sara, and that she swears she knew nothing of it before now.

Jaime swears he's never lived a day of peace since they did this. Omar doesn't believe he's remorseful or he would have rescued the daughter and basically calls him a wimp for not standing up to their Mom. Jaime says yep, I'm a wimp, I let her trample all over me to get a little approval and attention from her because I was always walking in YOUR shadow. That's some heavy sibling rivalry there. And I understand the Freudian Mom complex thing, but please, this woman invokes that much need to impress? Ugh, seems like you could grab her and break her in half in a second, but whatever. Now I'm disgusted. Anyway.... Omar will never forgive him for destroying his family.

Vasco is equally incensed that his relatives could pull this off. Mama still wants him home. He says ha, no way now for sure. He's no longer part of this family. ma is worried that if Sara doesn't prevent it that Pa goes to jail. Vas wonders how Sara will stop that and she says because she's already forgiven everybody. Vasco is imapactado that she knew the truth from the beginning. Ma doesn't know everything for sure, and just them Julian walks back and Vasco wants to go to see what's happening with his uncle. Ma begs him to stay in touch with her because remember she wasn't involved.

Inside Di fills in Julian about them being asked to leave and is worried because now no one is home.

Back at the apartment of estrogen, the Ma and Daughter are fighting again about Julian's attention. Lore has had enough and sentences them to therapy with Don Toribio first thing in the morning.

At the mansion Snorty finally shows her ugly head and finds out what's going on and swears her unfettered regret and her pride in Sara. Speaking of weird lipstick I guess it’s Snorty’s turn. Omar keeps hurling the usual insults one might in this situation which I'm going to skip over, and he ends up threatening them with jail before he is about to leave. Just then Sara and Zully rush in screaming please don't do hurt "Abue" she just wants a happy united family. Good luck with that I say. She wails feeling it's her fault if they go to the jail. This one is probably up there on that scale. She gets faint and decides she doesn't have the strength to go back to her new lesser home ,but before she goes upstairs begs her Pa not to harm them.

Back at this lesser home, the three young'ons are wondering WTF or que the heck. Outside the lesser home Lipoass calls her honey muffin amante and begs to see him for some stress relief. He actually does a proper thing and refuses because he is watching his sweet little daughter. He apologizes and says this happens rarely, but he has to stay with her. He gets a point or two for this. BUT>>>>> cute little duaghter wonders if he was talking to Mommy because he called the person "my love" and he tells her she heard wrong. This will no doubt come back to bite him somehow.....little kids are smarter than most think!!!

Sara rehashes her acting performance with Chalo and how she's sure she'll win the Oscar (er, Omar....) for it.

Poor maid cleaning up after all that drama. I guess that's why these people never think twice about throwing and breaking things, someone else cleans them up! Ma returns home to find out what happened from Jaime and that she knew Sara wouldn't convince them. Jaime yells at her that he wants to be alone. Ooooh rejected again. Poor Barbi.

Lore is wandering the dark halls thinking about not finding her family and sniffling.

At the lesser house, they are speaking the next morning about Sara's situation and that it's weird she stayed at the mansion knowing all this. Di is wary, but everyone else gives her the benefit of the doubt that she was overcome with fatigue. Omar brings his wife some juice in bed and everyone acts as if he were bringing her the solution to world peace. He knows how to treat a woman and Julian wants to take notes. Ah, I could insert snide chauvinistic comments here, but I won't. Juice in bed doesn't suck I suppose.


At the Clinica Popular, Valeria is complaining about the double work they have to do since Bruno became jefe and Alonslow agrees he's abusing his power. No one is able to reign him in. Al offers to help her with the files next time. he wonders if she knows anyone who works in television. She'll see but can't promise anything. He has an idea, and it's not a campaign against Bruno.

Bruno is presumably buying cheap or fake medicine from a black market guy. Probably to save money and pocket the difference, but I guess we'll see. He makes an evil smile.

Di and Vasco are musing about not sleeping well after last night's news. Lore shows up for her shift and Di takes the opportunity to thank Lore for what she did and being a great person. lore wonders where Sara is and Di says, well, she is not her because she's rather sleep in the big bad mansion than the lesser house. Vasco again reminds her not to think badly yet. Di agrees.

Julian comes down and tells lore his ma is still resting from all this drama so they should just start on the food themselves. And they do.

At the business, these kids who never change their distinctive clothes, Vasco and Diana, are discussing that they both just feel something isn't right with this whole Sara thing. It's always funny how with people depicted equally smart in the story, some get clued in to things, and others don't.

Snorty and Jaime discuss that Sara will convince her parents not to rat. Jaime isn't convinced. Barbi comes running down the stairs demanding to know what happened last night and SNorty just quietly walks away. that was actually kind of cool. Jaime says that Omar is going to send him to jail and he is not going to resist. Barbi is upset, but she should shut up because this will give her plenty of opportunity to spend time with her amante.


Back at the lesser house, Sara is crying again and begging her Pa again not to denounce "Abue". He tells her in no uncertain terms to forget that wench, the only family you need is here and you won't lack for anything, oh and I don't want you to take a cent from that witch! Sara is understandably impactada given her elaborate undertaking here. :)

Buenas noches a todos. Here we go…

So we start tonight with flashbacks of the Reyes bros. receiving news of Libia’s death. Remember how the local “authorities” left her face-down in that river over night? Or how the Reyes bros. left their sister’s casket in a cave, and then wrapped their hands around a prickly bush? Ah, and who can forget Juan’s fateful vow to seek vengeance on the Elizondo family? Well, things have certainly changed. Believe it or not, Juan has come to his senses and wants the Elizondo family to know the truth.

Eva visits Sofia to tell her that Gabi has suffered another crisis. This time the “attack” was provoked by meek little Eva spilling the beans about the baby she had with Bernie.

Eva wants to talk to a more than reluctant Juan. Apparently it’s about her last secret ever-she swears. Now, more than ever, she is sure that the boys must know that Rosario is her daughter.

Gabi is strategizing with Fernie. She tells him that God is on her side, and that He knows exactly what she is suffering. She also says that she had a real fainting incident that was confirmed by the doctor in the local clinic; now no one can say she’s a liar. “Every cloud has a silver lining” chimes in Fernie the optimist. He asks what provoked the fainting, and she answers that it was caused by Eva’s revelation about her relationship with Bernie and their daughter Rosie.

Frankie, who’s really behind the times, asks Eva if Rosie knows that Eva is her mother. Yes she knows, but Eva doesn’t want to disclose any more information than that. Oscar throws a hissy-fit about the whole ordeal. We are then interrupted by Quinti who informs the group that Sofia has left the building. Juan, outraged, wants to know who would ever let her go anywhere by herself. Eva tells Juan that she went to see her mother on the ranch.

As Sofia is going up the stairs she is stopped by her husband. Fernie has forbid her to see her mother because she causes her way to many problems. Then the conversation switches subjects and concerns Sofia’s relationship with Juan. As we know, Juan is a real man who has given Sofia things that Fernie never could. Blah, blah, blah. Interestingly enough, Fernie makes his little scrunchy face and grabs Sofia’s arm. I really don’t know why he feels so attached to a woman with whom he no longer lives, and deep down despises. Anyway, he tells her that she’s a whore, and that she is never allowed to come back. Juan to the rescue! “Don’t you talk to my girl that way!” Punch, boom, bang, etc. The two men, who are notorious for their high levels of testosterone, battle it out over a woman who, frankly, isn’t worth the nosebleed. Fernie goes for the punch…and it’s bad! He hits the horse in the painting. Now it’s Gabi to the rescue! She has miraculously risen out of bed and has a gun! The fight’s over boys…
Gabi is on her little soap box, explaining that if she shot Juan, it would be justified because he has caused her a lot of suffering. She creeps down the stairs like an animal on the prowl. Little Fernie hides behind the rot iron whispering “Do it, do it. Kill ‘em.” Juan even tells Gabi to kill himself, but then he remembers his son, and tells Gabi not to kill her grandson. She doesn’t care because the kid’s a bastard. Here comes Eva as surprised as ever. Gabi tells Juan and Sofia that they don’t deserve to be happy, and she wishes that they never find happiness. Sofia freaks out, though I don’t know why because this is like the billionth time that Gabi has told her this, and reminds Gabi that she is her daughter, therefore she has to love her! “You are mistaken, bitch” says Gabi (loosely translated).

Meanwhile, in the jungle Gramps calls home, he is talking to dumb and dumber about consulting with his doctor friend about Gabi’s “illness.” Eva barges in and tells them that something bad is going down over at the other set, and that they better get over there ASAP. Yeah, leave it to a worry-wart, two boobs, and a senior in a wheel chair to stop the show-down.

Gabi’s got her finger on the trigger, and with a stern look she tells Sofia that she doesn’t want to be Sofia’s mother anymore. If only it were that simple… She aims, Sofia and Juan look into each other’s eyes, and she is startled by Frankie’s entrance; he’s got a gun, and he’s ready to shoot. At the same time he comes in, so do the negotiators. Gramps cries, and everyone is safe. Oh darn, no one important died…

Ofelia goes to some school to enroll Pablito, but she doesn't have his documents and therefore cannot enroll him. Fine time for this little scene, eh? Sometimes I seriously believe that I could produce a better version of this novela in my back yard with the local neighborhood kids.

Just when we thought the fight was over, Juan has to make his speech about leaving for good, and how it’s not worth hanging around the ranch. Frankie and Oscar keep their guns aimed at Gabi, while she sort of aims hers at Juan. Juan and Sofia leave together.

Padre Tadeo pays a visit to his new friend in jail. He wants more information about Mapache’s death so that he can bail his friend out. The friend relates that Mapache muttered something about Fernando Escardon, a.k.a. Fernie!

Gabi is crushed. Fernie reproaches her for not killing Juan, and thus ending all of their problems. Gabi says that it isn’t time for that just yet.

Sofia is dabbing Juan’s wounds and apologizing for going to see her mother. This reminds me of the oddly-romantic scene in Beauty and the Beast when Belle is treating the Beast’s wounds, who closely resembles Juan in character and physique. Anyway, Juan tells Sofia that he is really sorry that her mother hates her, and he feels sort of guilty for all of their problems. Well, he’s right about something… Sofia disregards this statement, and explains that Gabi has always hated her and her father. But that’s not all, and Sofia feels that something else has to be behind all of this hate that Gabi has for her.

Eva visits Gabi in her bedroom, and tells her that she is more than ready to get the hell out of the freakish place Gabi calls home. “No way” says Gabi. Eva must stay because that will be her punishment; she will be forced to watch the Elizondo family disintegrate as a result of her actions. Eva corrects her, and says that Gabi is the reason everyone is so messed up. Eva tries to leave, but Gabi makes her come back; she wants to know how long she and Bernie had a thing. As we know, it was a one-night thing, where Eva got Bernie drunk and shut the lights off. All she wanted to do what put the geezer in bed, but it was really dark that night. Batta-boom, batta-bing, Eva’s knocked-up and you know the rest… Gabi tells Eva that she is worthless, and she feels sorry for her. Gabi tells her that her punishment will be her daughter will never forgive her. Call me crazy, but why the hell does Eva hang around the Elizondo dump when she clearly wants to leave? I thought she was above letting some crazy old bitch control her every move.

Gramps visits Gabi. He wants to know why she tried to kill Juan and her daughter. He begs her to reconcile, and he tells her that he is sorry for everything that she has become. He warns her that if she doesn’t reconcile soon, she is going to be alone. Gabi doesn’t buy his story, and tells him to get out because he makes her sick. She cries, he cries, end of story.

Things are kinda hot at the Tumbao…if you’re 15, and into the Rainforest Café scene… Niurka is desperately in love with Oscar, and is trying to understand this love triangle that exists between the Reyes bros. and the Elizondo girls. She is happy to know that Rosario is not her competition as she suspected, and therefore makes the first move (of the day, that is).

Sarita and Jimena are arguing about Gabi. Sarita asks Jimena to cool it, and Jimena says that she doesn’t like how Gabi bans her from seeing Sofia. Sarita explains that Gabi’s health is not the greatest, and therefore she doesn’t respond too well when provoked. No kidding. Blah, blah, blah. Jimena is sure that Oscar loves her, blah, blah, blah.

Oscar tells Niurka that she’s a nice girl an all, but he is in love with Jimena. Niurka tells him that this is the first time a man has turned her down. The least they can do is have a drink together. Oscar agrees to “only one.” Once she gets some alcohol in him, Niurka goes for the gold and makes a move to kiss him. He leaves, and she is beside herself because she loves him so much.

Sofia commends Juan for being such a good brother/father. She then asks him about the vengeance he mentioned to her. He starts with the story about his sister dying. Then he says that ever since he met Sofia he gave up that silly vengeance thing. That almost makes sense… He tells Sofia that he will do anything in the world to make sure she is safe and well. They kiss, he holds her…

So Gramps has gone to the clinic to introduce himself to the new doctor. Gramps tells the guy that he has decided to visit the clinic regularly because it has expanded its staff and obtained new medicines. Gramps introduces himself as a doctor, which really goes to show you that as long as you wear a lab coat and a stethoscope, you too can be a Mexican doctor. Gramps pulls out some forged document he got from Gabi, and asks the guy to check it out. The guy says that it is okay, and commented that her disease requires a lot of time to cure itself.

Family unit A and family unit B both go to mass and sit on opposite sides of the aisle. Don’t you love how Juan only bothers to button the last two buttons on his shirt? It’s not like it’s hot outside because Fernie wears a leather jacket. But then again, I should consider that Juan has less than a fourth-grade education, and thinks that Gramps is the smartest guy since Socrates. Coincidently, today’s mass is about loving your children, regardless of what they do, and to let your heart free itself of hate and grudges. Gabi is offended by this, and makes family unit A leave the church, but not before she slaps Sofia a good one. Well gosh, tt’s not like she was giving the sermon…

Tomorrow: Now, more than ever, the Elizondo girls are about to lose the loves of their lives because they are marrying some dim-wits next week on account of their bitchy mother. What else is new?

"¡¿Querían guerra?! ¡Pues, guerra van a tener!" "You want war!? Then you will have war!"





How about Feonando leaving his bride to gamble all night and go after hot chicks and then when Grabi is annoyed, a little rough sex and she's purring like a kitten. Yecch! If I have to hear 'Amor Prohibido' one more time, I'll scream.

Sarita saved Juan's life but he didn't seem very appreciative. Why doesn't he carry a gun in his truck like all the other guys who drive pickup trucks? Speaking of which, this may be the last we see of Juan's junker.

Melissa and Leonidas were very funny. How can Leonidas be so nice with Jimena and so stupid with his son. Although personally, I think Ruth could do better. Has Jimena actually agreed to go live with her husband! What an amazing idea.

It looks like the good times - performances by Pepita and nice family dinners - at the Elizondo hacienda are over tomorrow.

Songs I hummed to myself while writing this: "Beat It" - Michael Jackson, "Mamma Mia" - ABBA, "Back To Black" - Amy Winehouse.... But on to the excitement of the evening, we have our own unrepentant Mamma who beats backs until black but don't worry, we still can't see any hoochie coochie mammas with dangling bangles. Life is still so very strange in FELSLand:

Gabi demands that the Tweedles marry her daughters immediately then hurries home to lock said damsels in her room since they seem to escape from their own rooms so easily. First she slaps them silly as if they weren't silly enough already. Juan has a fever from being the whipped; Gabi has a fever from being the whipper. Franco and Oscar question Juan on his plans since he submitted to this senseless thrashing. He insists he did it because he is in love. Gabi delivers the one week until the wedding or a life time in the convent threat. Juan tries to make sense of now loving the woman whom he once swore as his mortal enemy. He calls for an end to the rancor, vengeance and hatred. Franco and Oscar look on uncertainly.

One by one Bernardo's daughters run fond ancient memory movies of life with Papa complete with Disneyesque sparkle stars as he spends time to teach them truck driving, horse riding or walking on top of stone walls and hands out sweet gifts with little angel motifs. We've seen these scenes before but perhaps extra memories just cost too much to film. Let's hope these weren't the only good times they had. At least Mamma Gabi isn't shown with sparkle stars added to her slaps or pulling their braids. In fact there don't seem to be any memory movies of her except in her own head. The girls pray to have Papa guard and protect them. Sofia in her own new life asks him not to abandon them.

Armando and Feo show up at the Tumbao to enjoy Maracuya's red bustle and grind number looking on with dangerous dark hats among the happy straw sombreros.

Finally Oscar and Franco are doing a bit of work to bring the bakery back to it's former glory. Eva shows up and is treated to sneers but persists to tell them that Sarita and Jimena are on the one week plan down the marriage aisle. They suddenly forget about insulting her but over at the Tumbao, Armando grabs a sparkle festooned sleeve of Maracuya's growling that he doesn't take slights well. She smacks him a good one as she assures him she does what she wants and no one has any say to the contrary. This is the only smack I have enjoyed this week. Maracuya looks better every minute.

While still showing the edge of the exotic club decor, we strangely find Padre Tadeo accusing Feonando of rummaging (hurgar, but look, a bonus phrase: this works with nariz if you want to talk about picking your nose) through his papers. Feo nahnah's him but PaddyTaddy says he not only isn't afraid of his words, he suspects the worst (love the way he can softly roll the rrrrrr in peor, he likes it too so does it twice). Where was I, oh, Feo will find out what is worse. They continue to stare and sneer each other down but the cigar smoke must be the winning blow if PT's face is an indication. Feo does look uncertain or is it just stupid? The market boys look on in the shadows.

Juan is panting and raving in pain. Sofia worries about Juan's rising fever and rushes out to seek cold water presses.

Abuelo Augustin arrives in the office alone for once with the files. Not much of interest emerges from his search but Gabi's certificate of health from the clinic doctor (remember Doctor Matasanos (quack)?) She enters trying to grab the certificate and slap him at the same time. Eva intervenes with pleas for no more hitting. Gabi swats at her ineffectively but is closer to the mark with her cutting remarks of Eva's bad mothering and the loose morals of her bad daughter. Eva just can't take any more soooooo......

Thanks to all the telenovela gods for letting me be the one to report that finally Eva gets to tell Gabriela that her lost child was fathered by none other than the greatest lover of this entire TN = Don Bernardo.

Somehow, Oscar and Franco stroll into Gabi's bedroom to surprise the viewers and the girls. Did Eva have a secret key? Were there new ropes to this balcony? Never mind, the kissing and planning of elopement/girl robbing goes into hyperdrive. Juan's raving goes into hyperdrive too. He rants about his love of Sofia and his need to avenge his sister. He swears to get revenge for her to an anxious looking Sofia who says tranquilo another two hundred times. The cold presses aren't working, Sofia knows she must go out into the very dark very scary night to seek the doctor....

Fer watches from behind a tree with evil glttering in his eyes as the insult shouting crowd of peasant women gather to stone the luckless pregnant Sofia for her sinful ways. Once again this baby is threatened. Didn't we (I'm including Juan here) warn her against just this kind of risky behavior? Once again Adela Noriega is to be stoned by a well paid crowd of poor women only too amused to have something to do besides watch FELS on the tele every night. (Some of you may remember the first time was when Adela as Alfonsina, the poor girlfriend of Maricio Islas as Alejandro, the rich son of the hacienda in El Manantial. It must have been a bit of deja vu for her).
**********************

Padre Tadeo appears in the nick of time to give an impromptu sermon who without guilt can cast the first stone. The abashed women reluctantly lower their polished but big, mean stones and abandon their stiff memorized speeches about casting this shameless sinner out of their village. Whew, we just brushed past another menace to the Reyes baby. The doctor miraculously shows up just after that so Sofia doesn't have to go searching any further in the big scary dark. Doctor, priest and American Girl Doll all zoom back to minister to the still raving Juan. The doctor has fever reducers and antibiotics, the priest has advice and comfort, Sofia is full of love and concern.

We get to luxuriate in the scene with Gabriela hearing all the wonderful details of Don Bernardo fathering Eva's child who is not a whore anymore than his other daughters. Eva tells of her lifelong love of Bernardo while Gabriela pulls her famous swooning scene dropping to the office floor. Eva yells for Rosendo, Oscar uses the famous credit card routine to unlock the bedroom door, the girls break up their little elopement planning meeting to rush to BadMom's side. Rosendo carries the unconscious seldom serene body of Gabi onto the sofa. Even Abuela Augustin doesn't know if it is sincere or not. Meanwhile back in the bedroom Franco and Oscar have to decide how to get out.

Paddy Tad points out that the women were not of this pueblo, surely there were brought in to assault (agredir) her.

Sofia wants to know why Juan's mad ravings were all about no more vengance. PaddyTad says ask Juan when his teeth stop chattering with fever.

Armando pays off the rocker women threatening them to keep quiet. He joins Feo in the truck who tells him every day he wishes more fervently he could help PaddyTad meet his maker.

Gabriela wakes up and she is babbling incoherently. Eva looks worried that she will find her tongue too soon to blame her confession on the newest spell.
************************

In Gabi's highly luxurious bedroom the boys discover Libia's picture in the nightstand by Gabi's bed and debate how to confront her about it, down below, the good doctor seems to take Gabi's fainting seriously, Gabi wants to go to her room after she hisses to the room that she has received horrible news, another betrayal. Eva wants to tell all but Gabi isn't about to give her a chance to detract from her moment of star showing. The girls worry about what is in the bedroom, and storm the door to urge them with many pauses for kisses to clear the room for the fainting mom to enter. Oscar and Franco disappear like cat burglars. Perhaps brick laying and bread baking are not their best talents.

Eva tells Augustin about her blurted paternity confession to Gabi causing her fainting spell. Augustin thinks his granddaughters aren't fools (everyone is entitled to his opinion) but Eva as usual fears the girls will hate her when they find out the truth about the new sister.

Back at the tiny bedroom, this time it is Sofia on the floor sleeping after watching over Juan all night. Sofia apologizes about her MadMom again as they awake and renew their pledge to guard their love.
******************

Big menacing snake sounds tell us that FeoFerd approaches with the rain sound sticks and many hissing sounds. Feo sneaks into Padre's office but Padre apparently hears all the hissing. PT menaces right back that he is on to Feo and knows he was behind the hiring of the stone workers to attack Sofia. Feo decides that the priest must be really bored and counters with an invitation to come to BadLove cantina for a little fun and relaxation with the girlies there. Don't you have a fear of God? No you don't do you. But one day you will pay for your wickedness.

Gabriela pours on the pity party with the vulnerable Sarita and Jimena who kiss away her tears as though they weren't dealing with a sociopath. She assures them that if they continue seeking Sofia, they will kill her. (If only it was that easy, we could all go see Sofia)

Maracuya shows up at the BadLove bar quickly slipping behind the bar to teach the barboys how to make a mojito, so famous in the Carribean, these grinning bartenders seem really surprised but ready to learn. She will show them how easy it is. You can see how easy it is too: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mojito

Off on tour we have the cowboy cutie singing his love song with a choral response off stage (is it Rosario?) moments later in the animal fur booth she pets the picture of her son. He promises to love her and her son and give her the total family she craves.

Maracuya admires pictures of Rosario in the BadLove hall way and teases the barboys to find out who is her boyfriend. They can only tell her that she is in love wlith one of the Reyes brothers...
*******************

Oscar and Franco tell Juan that they wonder what Gabi will pull next. They tell him of finding the drawer (cajon) in her room with the picture all gnarled and wrinkly (arrugada) of LIbia.
Juan flashes back of the sheriff's announcement and the river pool scene of him finding sister Libia's body in the light. The burial scene in the cave with the thorn self-castigation as they form a cross with blood and sworn vengeance. Back in reality, Oscar chews the dolly's hat, then the boys collectively remember the gun loading from the trunk of the parents, swearing to destroy the loved ones of Bernardo, the riding across the fields to the Hacienda. The boys have to decide what to do with their vengeance now; now that things have changed. Will they betray Libia's memory or avenge her death? All this thinking hurts.

Eva with Sofia who tells of the Padre rescue that save her. Eva tells her the bad news of her mother's fainting spell upon learning of Bernardo's additional fathering activities. Eva even takes the blame on herself for the fainting.

We end with tomorrow's promise that Juan will punch a few lights out of Feo and vice versa, but watch out Juan! - Momma's got a brand new gun.

I mean seriously, we are operating under the pretense that Mili's Virginity is the end all be all brass freeking ring in this diatribe.

Rehash of Consti and Luci doin the Hawt Monkey Sex…They are pretty good at hawt hate sex. Luci goes upstairs, tells the big one that she was in the jardin. Nestor says it is cold outside and he touches her face, but alas you feel hot, that is hot not hawt. Yeah cause she was cross pollinating Consti. Nestor invites her to bed, but Luci begs off with a shower (Thank you TeleNovela Gods), oh yeah also she has a headache.

Consti falls into bed wearing maroon PJ’s that Hugh Hefner left over at the mansion. Andrea tries to entreat him in a little happy-happy, but no dice, he is tired and he too has a headache. Andrea can’t believe the Sex Machine Consti isn’t up to the task.

Hugo and Mili are in the living room, Hugo is showing Mili some travel brochures for where they can spend their honeymoon. Oh the beach. Mili seems pretty excited about it, at least as excited as she ever seems with Hugo the Noble. They will be going on this big adventure in two weeks.
Now this seems like a fine idea, except Al the stalker is in the back of the room, having his VirginDar turned up fully and being that Mili is now the only Virgin in the house he is in full tracking mode. Al gets a big smile listening to the plans.

Now at breakfast Consti and Luci are slipping each other little happy-happy monkey glances. They are actually being decent to each other, which sets off Andrea and Nestor. Luci and Consti say they are in good moods cause they slept so well last night. As in actually sleep, not that hawt jungle lovin they did on the upper level in the study in front of Shakespeare and Balzac and who knows who. But knowing these AssHats, those are finely bound leather shells with blank pages.

This leads Andrea to make some snarky remarks about Luci being old and having a heart attack, I guess during sex. Nestor says he’d rather be with Luci than someone like Andrea. Meanwhile Consti and Luci are text messaging, do me..do me… do me.

Sneaky bastard Al and yes now he really is a sneaky bastard, goes in to see his WIFE. She asks him if he is mad cause she talked nicely to Nestor, Nah, Al answers, they need sometime alone. He tells her is going to plan a nice romantic vacation in a couple of weeks for just the two of them to go to the beach. Jeez could this guy be any more of a perv? Now I hate you Al cause you are making me feel sorry for your Baby-Mama. She wants to take off really soon, like yesterday…but Al razzles and dazzles her with some more lies. He has to look to the family business, rather Dead Dad Domingos business. Yes indeed cause Flor trusts him completely with her dinero. She mentions that Mateo was giving Slutty Sister some business advice.

Now we slide right on over to a business meeting of Weasel boy Mateo. He wants Consti to help him get control of Dead Domingo’s Company. This pleases Const no end. This is like a making a Consti sandwich between Andrea & Luci. Once again he is going to get to screw two people at the same time. Al the worthless bastard, he had to spend time making miserable all those years and Dead Domingo. So here is the game plan, he will swing things Mateo the Ratts way and in the meantime he will get to join the Soprano construction company with his own. I guess all those checks he gave St. Deceptions are really paying off in the heavenly favors.

Consti tells Mateo he is glad that Mili didn’t hook up with Mateo. Mateo must never do anything to hurt Mili.

Now Mili is wandering aimlessly about the Jardin. Al pops out and he is in a good mood. She is pleased. She asks if he will give Nestor a chance and he basically says, “I covered your relationsonship with Consti, so butt out of mine.” Mili agrees, giving him the fluttering doe eyes and he thanks her. She queries for what? Just for everything. Really this coded message is, “Thanks for remaining a Virgin”. You can see he thinks, you will be mine, yes you will be mine.

This tender moment of Nacatude leads to a kiss. Flor is standing behind the bush, watching, hating and considering forcing her water to break.

Finally the kiss ends and Flor must have left. Mili is all like, “What are your doing?” He is so sure of himself. Mili tells him it must not happen again. Why? He asks. She tells him if he doesn’t back off, she will leave the house and loose her inheritance. When is princess going to realize she owns the house, why doesn’t she just kick the rest of the trash out on the street? Oh yeah cause then she couldn’t stare at Al the Ass all the time.

Flor meanwhile encounter Luci in the main drag (the salon), she tells Luci it is all her fault cause she opened her big drunk mouth at the Wedding. Well you gotta admit, she is right. Luci is all like calm down, you are exaggerating.
------Meanwhile Andrea is listening in on the whole thing----
“Exaggerating?” Flor says back, “ Al and that servant were just swapping spit in the garden”.
She follows up with, “your son hates you, everyone hates you…your are going to be so alone.”

She goes upstairs and Andrea backs out of the room. Luci heads straight for the booze, which now doubt Brau anticipating her whims has a well supplied ice bucket just screaming “On the Rocks, On the Rocks.”

Now Karla the little dreamer wanders in, she asks Luci for help getting the wedding ready. Luci (a bit lit at this point), says Damien will never marry you. You are a servant, it is so not happening. Karla’s poor little face falls. Karla replies, “Consti will make him marry me.” Luci answers, “Consti loves to jerk Damien’s chain, it so isn’t going to happen.” She continues with, “You could never have our family name”, Luci then repeats the family name several times, of course I can’t remember what the hell the name was, and unlike most more dedicated recappers, I no longer record. I go more for essence than actual fact based recapping…So for conversation sake we will just call them the AssHat family of Mexico City, DF., the family is tree goes back to that famous Conquistador, “SoyUno Asshat”.

Now damn it they have made me feel sorry for Karla, it would be okay if they said she was manipulative, rude, conniving and a bitch to her mother. Apparently those are her good qualities, the hang-up seems to be the lower class.

Karla wanders off and plays right into Andrea’s grasping fingers. She tells Andrea what OLD DRUNK Luci said. Andrea says it is time to make Luci pay. Karla is all shades of eager for that. So they will force her to drink more and more. She will be left with nothing, but a swollen liver, BSC living out her life in a sanitarium. Now she has alienated everyone, they plan to also bring Val over to their side.

Meanwhile Damien AssHat, overhears Mateo and his creepy RatBastard friend discussing marrying for money and other ways of screwing over the fairer sex. Damien says he has a job for RatBastard. Once in his office he tells RatBastard, “Woe have I got the chick for you”. Experience, hawt, good looking..fun if you get my drift and all you have to do is get her interested in you. Of course, RatBastard, creepy dude prefers his women a bit more innocent…. However with the promise of cash, Damien talks the RatBastard into making a play for Karla.

Now then equally creepy Al is explaining his plan to Bobby, fans you know the plan the one where he keeps Mili’s thighs superglued together until, he can be her FIRST. Bobby is looking at him like you have lost your freekin mind. Bobby is rather horrified that Al has made all these elaborate vacation plans, and plans to take along the six month pregnant wife. Al just goes on and on about how Mili belongs to him. Bobby seems a bit sickened by the whole idea. Remember months ago when Bobby was horrified that Al had slept with Hugo’s dead (although she wasn’t yet dead) love. Yeah I’m with you Bobby, why does Hugo always come out on the short end of Al’s lust?

Also Rocky takes Val to Consti’s business, he says it is time to fess up. He wants to tell Consti. Val says No way, she turns to walk away and Rocky grabs her. Of course Consti comes out and sees this. He asks what is going on. He asks if she is messing with the help. She fires back, “Like you? Then abandoning her? Or like Mom and lying to Al all his life. Val walks away. Rocky tells Consti that he is only her driver, they ride in silence. Of course Consti calls one of his hit men to tail Val.

Flor is in the Salon, she sees Mili and fakes nice, we go through the let’s be friends crap for the mil veces…Please make it stop. She asks Mili if she has seen Al? Mili looks guilty, replies No. Not in the garden? Mili continues No. Mili runs upstairs. Flor smirks.

Now Karla is raising hell with Consti about Damien. Damien comes in and says he wants to marry Karla on Sunday. Consti is just staring. Karla is like jumping up and down, Damien is jumping up and down.

Karla runs upstairs and sees Rocky and Val slip into a bedroom. Ahhhhaaaa. She is skipping down the hall when she sees Andrea and tells her the good boda news & about Val and Rocky. Andreas always narrowing eyes get a little squintier.

Flor is sitting in their bedroom and Al comes in and flops down, he is too tired to eat. Really says Flor cause Mili asked them to dinner. Oh great, Al jumps up..yeah yeah we’ll go. She leaves the room and Al the Ego is macking on himself in front of the mirror.

Mili and Hugo are joking around in her tween bedroom and Hugo says something clever and Mili falls on top of him and gives him a kiss, and I am so ready for Hugo to nail her, when Flor comes in and says
Al invited them to dinner.

Next we are in the restaurant and Al is making eyes at Mili, when Flor asks what all the kissing in the Garden was about….BUSTED…..

Now tomorrow…Hugo is telling Al to back off, that Al just wants to be Mili’s first, which Al answers not only her first but her only.

Geez, did I mention I hate you Al? I mean I get it that Al “loves Mili”, but did we have to reduce this to Al’s superior Male prowness?

Also sorry…I forgot Gloria’s Ma finally married Gloria’s Pa. I didn’t mention cause well, I thought they got married a while back and alas, I don’t really care.

Getting started on this a little later than usual....family crisis. And hey, that's what this evening was about too! So on with the show.....

Yesterday's episode ended with Sara bracing Barbara about her infidelity. Barbara knows when she's licked and says" Okay, you win." We get to see Sara gloat for the umpteenth time. By the way, is anyone else annoyed by the way they do Sara's lipstick? They extend it way beyond her lower lip to try and make her mouth more sensual. I hate that.

Okay, back to the business at hand. While sad music plays in the background, we see Zulema pinching out the candles (symbolic of the flame going out in her marriage?), clearing the table and wondering where in the world her husband can be?( I've had a few nights like that, so this was not a fun scene for me.)

When he does finally get home, he seems oblivious to her snazzy hairdo and glad rags, is too tired to eat, goes straight to the TV and is entranced by some blonde babelicious doing a hoochi-coochie dance with a partner. He drinks a little wine but then announces his intention to go right to sleep after the show is over. Zulema puts back the sexy black nightie she was about to pull from the drawer, and sees that the evening is going to be a dead loss. If you've ever heard the country song " And I shaved my legs for this?" you'll know what she's feeling.

The evening is going a little better at Maruja's house. Vasco, Diana, Julian and Rosy are having a rollicking game of cards. Julian wins and declares himself lucky at both cards and love. Maruja decides to join the game and proposes they play something where five can play because she doesn't want to separate the "couple" Vasco and Diana. There's an embarrassing pause and then Diana explains that she and Vasco are just friends.

After they leave, Maruja is afraid she made them uncomfortable. Julian explains that Diana is pregnant and while the biological father is going to recognize the baby and support it financially, that's as far as it goes.

Rosy makes an impassioned speech about what's wrong with "the way things are"..the woman has the baby, raises it and educates it but the father gets his name put on it. Mom reminds her it wouldn't be good for the baby to feel rejected by it's father.

Well, here's Alonso at it again, asking Lorena to marry him. And hey, she isn't even pregnant! There's no doubt in his mind that she's the woman he wants to spend the rest of his life with. No more good-byes, they can spend their nights together. She promises to think about it. This romantic moment (not) is interrupted by the cell phone...It's Paula having another hissy fit about Bettina spending too much time with Dario and that Jaqui wench.

So presumably Alonso drops off Lorena so he can go do therapy with big sister. Dario's robbing me of Bettina's affection, she shrieks. Do you want her to hate her dad? Well, he deserves it! He threw me over and is treating this woman like a queen. He reminds her she needs to remake her life. Like everything else with Paula, this falls on deaf ears.

Back at Maruja's Rosy and her mom are trying to find out more from Lorena, now that she's spilled the beans that Vasco is Hortensia Armendariz's grandson and is living with Zulema and tio Omar.

And now one of our icky scenes with Barbara and Arturo in bed. Fortunately they are only talking. Barbara is fuming about Vasco losing out on part of his inheritance to the scheming Sara and wondering how on earth she could have found out about Barbara's affair. And she certainly hasn't stuck with her husband all these years in order to be done out of some inheritance by that sneaky chit of a girl!

Sara gets a phone call from Chalo. He wants to celebrate her getting in the will but she refuses to do anything until she actually sees it signed in the lawyer's office. He chuckles that she'd better pack her bags 'cause she'll have to go live with her "real parents" for a while.

Alonso's dad is sitting at the breakfast table in his jammies complaining about the newspaper and his depressing life. Alonso suggests he go out with him. He's picking up Bettina for an outing and Gramps is eager to go along.

Right about now, Bettina is getting busted. Mom realizes she's got on lip gloss, starts fuming when she finds out it's from Jaqui. Bettina stomps off and Paula muses that it's impossible to get along with teenagers.

Jaqui, on the other hand, is in seventh heaven, planning a wedding that she would like to be in all the society pages. Bruno is giving her carte blanche to do anything she wants and finally she puts the magazine down and they go at it...kissing- wise. If we come up with a kissing meter like we did for crying, this has to be one of the worst ever. They look like they're eating each other.

Now a light-hearted interlude at the skating rink. Gramps falls a few times but ends up looking pretty adept on the ice, skating with Bettina. Lorena wobbles and hangs tightly onto Alonso. Tinkly happy music plays in the background.

Julian and Omar are watching TV. Julian knows things turned out badly the other night, but heard his mother remind Diana that this is a couple's problem, no one else can solve it. Julian looks worried.

Zulema is out walking with Vasco and Diana but is clearly still preoccupied with the romantic fiasco last night. Is it another woman? No, she's sure it's not that. Omar's not the type. But she's afraid he sees her as old. Vasco's ready to jump in and talk to Omar "man to man". And he assures Zulema he's never seen a couple get along as well as she and Omar do....not even his parents! (Poor Vasco, he's in for a rude awakening on that relationship).

Back at Evil Acres, Hortensia is getting ready to sign the will. There's a little fake tension when she hesitates, before the ad, and we're led to think she might not do it, but sure enough, after a gazillion ads for this and that, she puts pen to paper and it's a done deal.

Barbara arrives from her little hot sheets afternoon and actually has the b....s to say she was with her friend whose husband gave her a new car whereas Julian hasn't given her a new one for two years! Nervy woman! Julian tells her brusquely that he hasn't got time for this, granny's in the library signing a new will leaving a good chunk of cash to Sara. And our little chippy is at Hortensia's side, gloating as usual, and hoping she won't have to wait too long to enjoy her inheritance.

Now a little meeting of the sadder-but-wiser gals....Paula, Greta and Maruja. Greta's fanning the flames, pointing out if Jaqui's scoring points with just a little lip gloss, what's gonna happen when she gives Bettina a dress? Paula's going ballistic. Greta urges her to get it out...get it ALL out. Paula pounds pillows (I've done this too...it works) and feels better. When Maruja reminds her she vowed to get over Dario, she replies "Yes, but only after I've had my vengeance.

More card games. Lorena, Bettina, Alonso and Grandpa. I don't even know card games in English so I'm not going to speculate on what they're playing but Bettina wins. Lorena confides that Mother Trinidad was a real card shark and organized poker parties with the townies.

Julian and Diana are back at the house watching TV musing on their parent's marital problems. Diana wonders "why men are so insensitive" and Julian protests the generalization. Like you're such a romantic!, she laughs. But they both conclude...it's a couple's problem.

One couple who seems to be enjoying themselves are Chalo and Sara, celebrating with champagne in plastic cups. Chalo wants to get busy, Sara momentarily protests his brutal rushing but then seems to enjoy it. We see the moon and then the morning and know that another night has passed.

And guess who's at the gate again, insisting that TODAY Sara must go meet her parents. Sara does a little pouting but then concludes that maybe she should go meet them. But it would be best if she could do it without the brother and sister there. Could Lorena get them out of the way? Lorena is sure she can.

Back at Evil Acres, Hortensia, looking worse than usual (and that's saying something) is complaining about not having slept a wink all night. Damn that potato peeler anyway! Jaime thinks maybe they should be the ones to break the news. Hortensia thinks that's a stupid idea, typical of all Jaime's stupid ideas. Sara arrives at that moment and meekly says she's going to find her parents today and will do all she can to keep them from wreaking vengeance on Granny and Uncle. Wish me luck, she adds sweetly.

After she leaves, Hortensia assures Jaime that Sara's cold-blooded enough to handle the situation as well as anyone can. She figures now that Sara's in the will, she'll do everything she can to protect them....quid pro quo!

Back at Zulema's house, our good fairy Lorena is trying to orchestrate the long-awaited meeting with Sara. She's been cooking with Zulema and when Julian invites mom to go out with him and Rosy, Lorena jumps in and says "No!". Hastily explaining that there's really so much to do in preparing for tomorrow's meal that Zulema needs to stay.

There's another hitch, Omar is at Lagunillos (a flea and antiques market in Mexico City, big visiting day is Sunday). Third hitch. Vasco likes to lie around on Sundays and read; Diana likes to relax at home on Sundays also. When Lorena refuses to tell them why she wants them to leave there's a little problem...Diana doesn't like secrets. But this is something good, Lorena protests. I wouldn't ask you if it weren't important.

We have a brief break from this for more Paula/Bettina quarreling. Paula wants to know if Bruno and Jaqui are getting married. Bettina pouts that she doesn't know and runs off.

The drama starts building. Lorena reminds Zulema about how she lost her daughter. Zulema tears up and wonders why Lorena is bringing this up. Because your daughter is alive, and she's my best friend!

Tension is broken again with a little scene with Alonso and Dad in the car. Dad's blithely assuring Alonso he's doing great driving until Alonso reminds him about the poor dog he almost hit. The owner's fault, retorts Dad. Why didn't they control their dog? Whereupon he almost runs into another car. That's it. Alonso's taking the keys. He can't let Dad risk his own life or that of others.

Back to our drama. Zulema looks like she's having a heart attack trying to assimilate this news. And as the truth begins to dawn, so does the rage. How could they make me believe my baby was dead?! Who tore my baby out of my arms?...Hortensia! And what baby did we bury? She's devastated thinking about someone robbing her of her daughter, her love.

Yes, but God is blessing you now, says our perky little Lorena, Sara is alive. Next reasonable question....why is she living with Hortensia? Well, that was the only information she had, explains Lorena. Madre Asuncion was the one who told her about her grandmother.

This is a very emotional scene, well played by the actress portraying Zulema. It's painful and intense. Now we get a shot of Sara, casually lounging around outside, awaiting a call from Lorena. When it comes, she straightens up, vows to give the acting performance of her life, and heads for the house.

She enters with a tremulous little smile, appearing to be as moved as Zulema is and falls into her arms. My daughter, my little daughther, sobs Zulema, holding her close.

And that's it for tonight folks.

This episode starts with an overlap from Friday. I won’t regurgitate it here, just go back and read Friday’s recap.

Mili and Hugo discuss going on a trip for their delayed honeymoon. Mili doesn’t care where they go, she leaves it up to Hugo. Hugo tells her he’s got a late meeting at the office and he leaves the mansion. Mili decides now would be a good time to offer condolences to Florinda. Mili knocks on the door and enters. Flo tells her that Alejandro isn’t there, as she assumes that’s what Mili came for. Mili insists she’s there because she wants to find out if there is anything that Flo needs. Flo says “yeah, for you to leave.” Mili again insists that she’s only there to offer help to Flo, it can’t be easy losing a parent. Flo retorts, “I thought I made myself clear, steer clear of me and of Alejandro……you act all nice, Al falls for it, but I really know how you are--- you are just interested in becoming his lover.” Mili denies, protests, and refuses. Flo isn’t buying it and neither am I (well OK, I’m sure that Mili doesn’t want to be Al’s lover, but she still wants him). Flo tells Mili that she won’t let her have Al, she’s going to take Al very far away from Mili. Al enters the room and asks what’s going on. Mili says nothing and Flo calls her a liar! Flo tells Al that Mili’s there to rub salt in her wounds and mock her pain at losing her dad. Mili wants to defend herself, but I’m sure she remembers how it all went down in the past when Andrea falsely accused her of stuff, so she says it is best that she leave. Al turns to go after her as she exits and Flo implores that he leave Mili alone.

Meanwhile, downstairs, Braulio and the servant staff are gathered and Brau is attempting to get Damian to confess that he is in fact NOT Braulio’s lover. Damian concedes and says that it was all a joke and there is nothing going on between him and Brau, in fact he’s marrying Karla. Why? Well because he’s so in love with her---and I’ve never heard a less convincing declaration of love before in my life. Karla eats this all up---once again proving that people hear only what they want to hear. Damian and Karla skip off and Braulio warns the rest of the staff that he forbids them from saying another word about this whole sordid affair (no pun intended). The staff then launch into complaints about having two mistresses of the house and how between Andrea and Luciana they are being driven crazy and overworked. They ask Braulio to speak up for them and he reluctantly agrees.

Out in the foyer, Andrea and Luci are once again back to bickering. Connie happens on the argument and joins in on Andrea’s side. Nestor wanders in and joins the fray, of course taking Luci’s side. Braulio comes out and tries to break it up, but he’s ignored, as these people obviously like the sound of their own shouting, because no one can possibly make out what any of the others are saying. Seeing that Brau is failing to get their attention, Lina drops an ugly vase and then points the finger at Brau and she hightails it out of there. Connie is incensed. That was an expensive vase. Andrea insists that Brau get canned and Luci launches in on how Andrea has no say in the hirings and firings of the household staff. Braulio demands an audience with Nestor and Connie and the men retreat to the study. Luci and Andrea continue to fling insults and my favorite is when Luci tells Andrea she’s only a concubine. In the study, Brau spells out the unhappiness of the staff and urges Connie to fix the situation. Connie and Nestor agree to work together.

Flo rants to Al about Mili---she knows he still loves her, blah, blah, the same old stuff, blah, blah, nothing new. Marisela interrupts and she and Flo cry on each other’s shoulders----woe is us, what will we do without our mob daddy (sob).

Connie and Nestor have a pow-wow with Luci and Andrea. Nestor tells Luci that she’s got to back off and let Andrea be the woman of the house. Connie tells Andrea that Luci will be retaining all of her privileges as long as she lives under the roof. The two women reluctantly agree to play nice together. Andrea tells Connie they’ll be talking later. Luci tells Nestor that they’ll be having a chat later, as well.

The Mafia princesses ask Al to take over running Daddy’s business. Al is hesitant, but he agrees.

Downstairs, Nestor admires the painting of Mili and her mother. Luci rips on both the women and Nestor doesn’t pay any attention to her vile jealousy. Luci takes off and Mili enters. She and Nestor discuss the painting and some how their conversation leads to Al. Nestor tells her that Al’s still rejecting him as his father and Mili assures him that it will all work out in time.

Damian comes upon the happy foursome and is surprised to find the women not having a cat fight. He mentions that there is some dinner that he’s going to need Connie to attend. Andrea gets excited, but Damian reminds her that Luci will have to be Connie’s escort, since outside the mansion, the world still thinks Luci and Connie are together. This does not sit well with Andrea.

Mateo is at Marisela’s. They have a rehash conversation about Bobby and then it leads into the MPs having asked Al about taking over the family business. Mateo is perturbed and then he asks MP2 if she’s going to have Al managing their money as well. MP2 asks Mateo’s opinion.

Mili’s hanging out with her posse and it comes out that she and Hugo have yet to consummate their marriage. Gloria knew already, but this is brand new info to Lina and she just can’t seem to wrap her mind around it. Mili retells how Hugo’s been such a gentleman and that he’s willing to wait till she’s ready. Lina reminds Mili that Hugo’s got some rights and this puts a fearful look into Mili’s eye.

Connie meets with Luci alone (this will be important by the end of this paragraph) in the study. He asks her to cut Andrea some slack and to lighten up. Luci agrees and says she’ll make no problems for Connie’s mujer. Connie says actually you are still my mujer, since we’ve not gotten a divorce. Connie gets a strange look in his eye and he starts to stumble over his words, as he tries to explain that weird feelings have been stirred up. Luci, feeling a tad awkward in this situation, makes for the door. Connie grabs her, pulls her into his arms and the two begin to make out!!!

In the kitchen, Lina still is trying to figure out what’s happening with Mili and Hugo. She and Gloria discuss it. Al overhears the conversation and he’s elated to realize that Mili’s not slept with Hugo. The girls leave the kitchen when Gloria accidentally spills something on Lina. Al walks into the room and Bobby arrives shortly there after. Al tells Bobby what he’s just heard and that he’s so happy to now know this. Bobby says that this changes nothing, but Al insists that it proves that Mili’s still in love with him (OK, he’s right, but it still sounds really narcissistic). After a commercial break, Lina and Gloria return to the kitchen. Bobby is stunned by Lina’s beauty and Gloria says they are waiting for Chamuco, who then arrives. They tell Al that they are heading out to Rodeo. Al asks if Mili and Hugo will be joining them. He’s told that they might come later, since Hugo had to work. The crowd leaves and Al, now alone in the kitchen, declares that he’s going to make sure that Hugo won’t touch Mili.

Luci mumbles, through kisses, that Connie should let her go…..someone might see. Connie says that danger excites him. Luci says it gets her excited too. She tells Connie that she doesn’t love him and can hardly stand him. They don’t care and they take it upstairs to the upper level of the study. They declare their mutual hatred for each other as they succumb to the passion.

Mateo tells Marisela that Al’s not the right man for the job of running the family business. He adds that the only reason he’s saying this is that he cares about MP2 and hopes to marry her someday, so he wants to look out for her. He says it would be risky to have Al in control of her money. Mari is impactada.

Val and Rocky are working at Taco Naco. He’s showing her how to make stuff and she’s proud she’s a fast learner. Chamuco and Gloria have a conversation across the restaurant. Could someone fill in what they said, because I had an interruption at this time and missed this portion of the show. I know that Mili and Hugo arrived. Any thing else happen here?

Nestor consoles Flo and says that he’s willing to be a fill in dad someday. She asks him about finding out that Al’s his son. He says he’s happy about that and also about the prospect of being a grandpa. He learns that Al’s going to be running the business and he tells Flo that he’s willing to help. Al comes into the room at this point and questions what Nestor’s doing there. Nestor makes his exit and Al presses Flo for info on what they talked about. Flo indicates that Nestor wants only to help and Al tells her that he doesn’t want Nestor’s help.

Andrea rants to Karla about Luci. She asks Karla to be another set of eyes and ears for her. Karla says she’s uncomfortable with that, since she and Luci will soon be family. Andrea says that will happen over Luci’s dead body. Karla says that Luci doesn’t seem to have a problem with her hooking up with Damian. Andrea says yeah, well Luci had an issue with Mili and Al. Are they together? She also had an issue with Val and the chauffer, are they together? So what makes you so special? Why doesn’t Luci have issues with you……oh yeah, that’s right, she probably does.

Luci and Connie rearrange their clothing and their hair. She says that they’ll forget about this come morning. They come up with a plan for leaving the study. She heads out and runs into Brau. He senses she’s up to something, but can’t put his finger on it. She heads upstairs and then Connie exits the study. Brau is putting two and two together, but I don’t think he’s quite added it up to four yet.

Upstairs, Luci tells Nestor “Not tonight honey, I’ve got a headache.” (Cliché I know, but I suppose it beats the alternative---“No need, I was fully serviced downstairs.”) END OF EPISODE
