PEAM #129-9/6/13: What Time Is It? Time For The Debut Of The Monterrey Tattler, Oh, And Film At Eleven!
Hola PEAM Peeps. I am running so late this whole weekend. I was going to craft a witty recap involving a gossip column. I will try my best. Oh, and this recap of course will not be in any order ; )
The Monterrey Tattler:
We are a new gossip rag here in Monterrey, Renato is one of our photogs when he isn't trying to get money in neferious ways from other people. Hey, he's gotta make a living, we don't pay much after all! Here are the happenings in Monterrey.
The Old Gossip:
Pato is a goalie, gets kerfuzzled, calls Elias to rescue her, he does, they kiss.
Moronica tells her lawyer Cyn she wants to get the goods on Royer and then bleed him dry. What else is new?
Cantu and Rogue have new mis planes to get rid of Discua.
Ferny is trying his best to not think about Discua, good luck with that.
Chucho finds Augusta in his office and immediately has a distressed stomach. Could it possibly be stress?

Corazon Indomable #84: The Plight of Esther & Doris Makes Little Steps Towards Crazyville
Rehashed
We start with MA adamantly denying her interest in Octavio.
She tells him he is the father of her child so she should feel a little worried
but nothing more is going on. El Governor gives her a skeptical “who are you
kidding” look (as he should) and wonders if she is really sure of her feelings.
New
Octavio ponders that MA/MC does not care about him since she
has not been to the hospital to visit him (aww boo-hoo…not!). He then flips the
switch and gets angry saying he will speak to his lawyer so that he can see his
daughter. Eduardo and Aracely interrupt his solo conversation with a visit. Ed
tells him that leg of his must be bi-ionic (viewerville nods in agreement).
Aracely informs Octavio that Ed was part of a rescue team to look for him.
Oblivio asks him why (umm, he is your friend right?). Ed gets uncomfortable and
tells him not to ask so many questions. Oblivio was hoping that MC organized
the whole thing. Ed tells him that of course MC fretted over his disappearance
but Oblivio believes what he wants to believe.
Doris and Co. are in what appears to be a club/discoteca
(have they run out of money again because this looks like someone’s house with
seizure lights flashing in the background). Doris is thinking of staying for a while to
see the boyfriend in the day and then take advantage of the D.F nightlife. She
also wants to make sure he is divorced so she can have dibs and marry her
pilito!

La Tempestad 30, Friday September 6, 2013 Trot Out the Tropes
A Patio of Lowered Expectations Discussion
“Dear Friends” – EJ
taps on her glass to get the attention of the folks on the Patio, “We begin
tonight’s recap with a quote from Sylvia’s Thursday night recap:
‘Ernesto’s pretend son loves Bea’s adopted daughter
who doesn’t know she’s Merce’s real kid who loves the son of the man her real
mom loved, who is hated by the man who secretly loves her mom, and a shark
dines tonight’. (Wry appreciative laughter
on Patio.)
“Sylvia’s hilarious summation of La Tempestad episode
28 compels me to ruminate a bit on the use of the trope in storytelling. The Oxford
American Dictionary defines trope as:
“A significant or recurrent theme; a motif”. In common
parlance the word is often used to describe an idea or theme that is too
often recurrent, thus rendering many ‘tropes’ trite. Several
years ago, recapper Julia came up with a definitive list of trite tropes that
are used in telenovelas*. Julia identified dozens of such themes and created TN
Bingo, which we played online for quite a while.
Tonight’s exercise will be to follow the happenings
in La Nuestra Señora del Mar through the device of just a few telenovela tropes
as applied to our La Tempestad characters, rather than reporting sequentially,
as we frequently do.”
Telenovela
Trope number 1: Confused Identities
In Ernesto’s Palace of Shame, a group of female
slaves are paraded before His Evilness. He is particularly attracted to the
stunning and silent woman. Macario tells Ernesto that she has not spoken since
the storm and for this reason he has given her a special name, Hada, or ‘Fairy’.
Of course we know Hada as Estercita, saved from the boat explosion, la tormenta,
and the aftermath by the unkindness of strangers. They found her, saw she was
pretty and decided she would fetch a good price on the slave market. As Hada is introduced to Ernesto, he says,
“Very well, Hada. You will have a good time with me.” And, although a loud
chorus is heard from the Patio, encouraging Ester/Pester/Hada to run for her
life, the little Fairy does not hear us as she allows Ernesto to kiss her hand.

Qué Bonito Amor #103 (Mex 141) Thursday 9/5/13 Que Preocupantes Desplomos
As he's being escorted back to his cell, another inmate playing Celia Cruz's "La Vida Es Un Carnaval" makes him recall better (?) times back at Ay Jalisco with Lalo and Pichi…pues, being Lalo and Pichi-esque.
With her fingers crossed behind her back, Elvira swears she had nothing to do with Maria losing her baby.
Mirna gets evicted.
Fernando gets slapped by Ana for kissing her…then he does it again and gets shoved…so he gives up and leaves before she can chuck a pillow at him.
Maria gives Elvira permission to come back to the bar until Concho recovers. But she still doesn't trust that immoral skank. She just wanted to see how far Elvira would go.
Santos got mail in prison from Maria, but he doesn't want to accept it. He borrows the guard's pen to write something on the envelope and tells him to send it back. He actually had a pencil in his pocket, which he now proposes to use to draw Maria's face.

CI Cap. 83, 9/5/13 The Suspense Is Unbearable. Will Octavio Survive?
Previously,
more or less
Octavio is stretched out in the plowed corn field—umm, let’s make that the desolate reaches of the uninhabited island where the plane crashed. He can’t feel his leg anymore and he’s sure this will be his grave. (You won’t need a grave, guapo, ‘cuz the animals are going to eat you.)

In that alternate reality known as
Isla Dorada, Karim, Ed, and MariAle are holding a strategy session. MA’s
mission statement—to be the first to find our fallen pilot. She loves him and
will pay any price to save him. (What happened
to Don Ale’s private plane? MA could
have used it, with Ed as pilot.) They’ll leave in the morning and hope for
luck.
Miguel and Lucia are entitled to chime
in on a brother’s fate, so they do. Is the search a part of MA’s revenge on
them or due to love for her estranged hubby?
New
action, more or less
Lucia calls the doc to confirm MiniMigi’s surgery arrangements. He should be there by 8 am for tests before the operation. (We could compare this to actual pre-surgery protocols, but we won’t take the time since we have a search and rescue operation underway.)

SCENES ARE CONDENSED AND NOT ALWAYS IN ORDER. PLEASE READ COMMENTS FOR OTHER RELEVANT DETAILS THAT I'LL PROBABLY MISS!
We have a refrito of yesterday, starting with the college teacher trying to convince Maria to get her degree pronto with sweetheart workshop/test deal (two weeks and she's got her diploma). Maria wants to blow it off to see JAntos; Wendy and her mom try to talk her out of it. JAntos and Michael meet up with a forgetful old prisoner geezer who is undoubtedly Fernando's dad, and JAntos and Michael are busted in the warden's office while looking for the prison blueprints online. (Don't even get me started on this.)
Amalia is having pains in her shoulder due to her illness. Wendy wants Amalia to tell Maria; Amalia doesn't want to worry Maria at this time. She asks Wendy to keep it a secret.

He is all alone in the wilderness and now the animals will eat him! CI Wed Sept. 4th
Hi patio peeps, I'm finally back, although the virus still seems to be giving me issues, at any rate I hope you enjoy the recap. Eli
Tonight we are all going to learn what not do in the event of a plane crash.
At the crash site Octavio and his passengers and crew all manage to make it out alive, he shouts to everyone to keep calm, everything will be okay. I don't know why he did this because everyone seems calm enough, actually they all seem way too calm for people that just survived a plane crash, but I'm not going to over think this. Anyhoo, Octavio goes off in search for help with an injured leg, no water, and no compass to show him the way. Folks, I think one of the brain cells was injured during the crash and poor Octavio is down to one brain cell. Pray for him.

La Tempestad Cap #28 Wed, 9/4/13- Ernesto’s pretend son loves Bea’s adopted daughter who doesn’t know she’s Merce’s real kid who loves the son of the man her real mom loved, who is hated by the man who secretly loves her mom, and a shark dines tonight.
OK folks. I’m sitting here with my needle and thread in case I have to stitch together 5 episodes like our stalwart Mauricio did. I’m also feeling very short of breath. Help! Jose! Pick me up and carry me somewhere! (Wasn’t he awesome last night when he hoisted Bea so effortlessly?) I’m also looking forward to Delfina pitching another fit, calling Fulgencio an asesino five times, and then flinging herself onto the fainting sofa. She did that scene like three times last night, didn’t she? I envy her energy.
Redux: Hunky Jose arrives with the news that the boat explosion was deliberate. It was planned. Oh goodie, we get a review of Delfina’s final and bestest tirade from last night. Blame! Freaky eyes! (Police guy sneaks out.) Asesino x 7! Later, Fulgencio punches Hernan, wheeeee! Mercedes, the future replacement mother, comforts Marina and says “her mother” will never abandon her. She would be creepy if we didn’t know she was good.
New stuff: Hernan asks Fully what would he gain by exploding Pestercita? We are partners! Fully swears he’s going to get the guy who caused Pestercita’s death. Hernan, blood dripping from mouth, (Yes Cynderella, there be vampires) swears that if Fully lays a hand on him again he’s going to kill him. Fulgencio looks somewhat amused at this revelation.

PEAM #127-9/4/13: The Wedding We All Were Waiting For, Well, Not Really....Just Discua!
Recap by Pablo
May you dream with the little angels
Read more »
Elías and Patricia talk about changes and sports. Every time she says something that she should be doing but she is not, Elías bring it up and she gets that she is failing that. 2 against 0 in the argument department. Elías is right, some women just talk because they have an opening in the middle of their face they call a mouth.
In the other side of the city, Vero lifts the tortilla basket and Royer won't sleep with her tonight. Sex diet is the worse a man can try to do, specially when it is against his will.
In Xóchitl's house we hear a -wink- and we see her hiding Discua from Fernando. Yes! You heard it right! Discua is now advertising the Discua-tronic, so if you can not have her, you can have her body, or at least try, because hers is not a body exercise can shape... wink! Did I hear false advertisement?
In the poor area of the city, Alma and Jesús are naked in bed. Looks like they already had ''a special night'', or maybe it was '' a special 5 minutes''? Juárever, while oozing honey from all the right places, we see Fireworks popping like poppies
and saying something like love, commitment, trust, faithfulness, respect, western union, safe sex, and so on...
SIGH (yes, only 55 episodes left)
Xóchitl, to justify the reason she has disconnected the TV set so Fernando couldn't hear Discua's ad, has concocted a lie that later she will have to cover with another one and many more until they fall down like an avalanche. Finally she offers sex and that's the end of it, since no man in his right mind will never reject that, ever!! Looks like Alejandra is teaching her the right things.
After less than 5 minutes, when everything is over, she leaps from the bed and runs to ask Jesús if he can walk her down the Church's isle on her wedding day. Alma, who always wants to know more than she should, wants to buy her the wedding dress so they can talk on the way to the Boutique Esencia Española.

La Tempestad Capitulo 27. September 3 2013. DamFab Is MIA; PesterEster Is MIA; And Some Scenes Are MIA As Well
Greetings Everyone! Unfortunately, Uni decided to butcher Caps 28-30 into one whole episode. This is really frustrating since it made the whole episode so hard to follow. The least Uni could do was butcher it in a way that would make sense. I'm going to try my best and recap this poorly edited episode.
Read more »
We begin with Hernan apologizing to Marina for having confessed his feelings in such a savage way. Marina apologies to him. She tells him that it was not her intention to hurt him or offend him. Hernan tells Marina that he is a different man. He has changed thanks to her. Haven't you noticed? he asks. Marina tells Hernan that she still sees him as being the same as before. Oh no she didn't! What do you mean? Do you mean that I am still that stupid boy who had no self-esteem? Marina says that what she meant is that he has become a successful man. Hernan tells Marina that he'll never been sucessful without her love. I don't feel like a complete man if I'm not with you. I am a different man thanks to you. I was able to get out of the dark where I lived because you taught me to not be afraid to feel or love. I am the man that I am because of you. Ok, if this had just been said by someone who hadn't just blown up his rival then maybe I would be touched by his sweet words to Marina. Marina rolls her eyes and tells Hernan that he gives her too much credit. You are a good friend, a generous man, and I didn't teach you that. Since we found each other you have offered your help, says Marina. Hernan says yeah and I'll finally be able to offer you all that help that will be a lot. He has had the contract written out that will pass on some shares of the packing plant to him. He hands Marina the contract and tells him that this is his proposal. He tells her that she just has to read it over and then sign it to close the deal. Marina begins to read. Hernan thoughtbubbles and admires Marina's beauty. He thoughtbubbles that now that DamFab is gone Marina will find protection in his not so DamManlyMusucular arms. Dream on, buddy!

Qué Bonito Amor #101 (Mex 139) Tuesday 9/3/13 Say, you look familiar, and a new Godfather is in town
Que Bonito Amor Cap 139, 9-03-13—Say, you look familiar; and a new Godfather is in town
Hola everyone. I'm filling in tonight!
EVENTS MAY BE CONDENSED AND NOT LISTED IN STRICT ORDER, TO SAVE MY SANITY.
JAntos talks to the moon through the bars of his cell and says how it's been his and Maria's "accomplice" and wants the moon (???) to assist Maria in living her life happily "for the both of them," since his life is over and everything's turned to crap. But, he tells the moon, even though his life is crap, he will never stop loving Maria.
 |
| Talkin' to the moon while in prison. What else would a guy do? |
Meanwhile, Maria is mooning over JAntos (heh—see what I did there?) and Wendy comes over to apologize for being such a bitch, mentions that JAntos is such a sweet guy that he's forgiven her even though she turned her back on him, yadda yadda. Maria is very warm to her. She tells Wendy that even though she didn't get her travel visa that she'll find a way to see JAntos.
The Godfather got Orange Guiliano out of prison by lies and fake alibis and whatever, and Guilano is on his knees, grateful for it all. But the Godfather doesn't want to hear it, he wants to bump off Guiliano who has proven to be useless! He pulls out a gun . . . Uh oh!
Meanwhile, Derecho is pissed that the Godfather got Guiliano out, and is starting to suspect that Justo is right, and the Godfather is behind all of this. He and Curtis will pay the Godfather a visit.
Back with Orangie and the Godfather, they struggle for the gun and it goes off!
JAntos and Michael are talking about Wendy's baby and JAntos is grateful for Michael being willing to take on Wendy's kid. Darren (blue-eyed earring guy) comes in and informs them that Orangie got out of prison. Major impactado!
The Godfather is dead, long live the Godfather! Orangie takes the old Godfather's hat and puts it on, and looks insane as he proclaims that he's the Godfather now. And he vows to get JAntos! Crazy dude doing all of this while the old Godfather is assuming room temperature on the floor.
 |
| Let's hope that the old Godfather didn't have any head lice. On second thought, let's hope he did . . . |

Corazon Indomable #80, 9/2/ 2013: Doom, Gloom, and an Unhappy Bride & Groom
Recap by LatinaInMD
Both parts are now up.
Read more »
Both parts are now up.
Previously: After some deep
thought-bubbling, Octavio admits to himself that he has always loved
Maricruz. Esther kisses her baby, then
Sooty Clory (Clorinda) places him in his basket with hot bottles; Esther is
concerned the baby is so quiet, as No-Class Jackass (Jose Antonio) tries to
reassure her. Eduardo and Araceli’s
wedding takes place. (For more details,
see Carlos’ brilliant recap of episode #79).
Esther touches the baby and screams that he is cold.
Bride and groom march down the aisle to the sounds of “Here
Comes the Bride,” as Octavio and MariAle march arm-in-arm close behind them. They exchange a few verbal jabs, then MariAle
asks Octavio if he would like to be the padrino at her wedding to the guv; he
declines, saying it is of “little importance” to him. Flirty Doris
approaches, tells Octavio he looks gorgeous and suggests a long night of
dancing to celebrate “THIS” – whatever “this” is. He does his best to annoy MariAle by flirting
right back at Doris, taking her arm, and then walking away with her, without so
much as a “see ya” to MariAle. Not to be
outdone, MariAle goes up to the guv and begins her own bit of flirting. The two sparring spouses continue their little
“Who’s the best flirt?” contest, partnering with their respective paramours while
continuing to eye each other from time to time.
Meanwhile, things are looking quite gloomy on the rocky Royal
Lands (that’s what “Realengo” means). As
Esther desperately screams for Jackass to bring the baby to her, Sooty Clory
and No-Class Jackass are now outside the Neo-Shotgun-Style shack (so dubbed for
all those shotgun holes in the walls).
The look on Jackass’ ashen face says it all. (Sorry Carlos; I at least knew what was
coming, but this must be a shock for you.)
As Clory helplessly tries to do something, it’s pretty clear the little
angel is no more. (Let’s observe a moment
of silence in his memory, shall we? Oh,
no, says Mrs. Mejia. That won’t do. Instead, let’s cut briefly to the
philandering hubby smooching with his fiancée right in front of his wife. Bravo, Mrs. Mejia. Your sensitivity knows no bounds.) Jackass asks Clory if she is sure the baby is
dead. She suggests he touch him. Jackass touches the baby and reacts with
somewhat genuine sorrow, but given his recent behavior, it somehow rings
hollow. – uhm, that rhyme was not
intentional.)

Porque el Amor Manda #124: Happy Feet, Cross-Eyes and Sticky Fingers
At an unspecified Nuevo Leon honky-tonk, Jess & Oli are having a big ol' co-ed bachelor party cowboy dance event thingy, and emotions are running high. The novios play kissy-face and drink beer. Lots of snippy celos among the geritol gang, with Su glaring at Pan, who's glaring at Chatita, who's mostly just rolling her eyes. The only one of them who seems to be having a good time is Saturnino. He must have left the meter running.
Maricela shows up looking like the Sundance Kid's naughty dream, but Rico won't dance with her. Yvonne's clearly been using the Discuamatic. I think it's time to lend it to Don Gil for a while. Peppy music, gloopy food porn, accordion product placement, etc.

La Tempestad #25- 8/30/13: Aba Daba Honeymooooon!
Ahoy, La Tempestad Maties, and A Happy Labor Day to Y'all! Hope you are enjoying the last days of summer. We have moved to the pier again because so much is going on, on the water this epi. This recap will not be in order, so please enjoy your Tequila Sunrises, put the spyglass to your eye so we can see what is what with His Deliciousness (DamFab) and his lovely wife, er, his Pesering Wifey Pooh on that sailboat.
The Rehash:
Commandante with Jaz and she is scared. He wants to know about others in organization, like who is the leader, and that he knows she is really Lu and not Jaz. She only knows about Nereo and noone else. He'll go so as not to get her in trouble, they'll meet again to talk some more.
DamDelicious has returned to port as the Harbor Master has called him back in for something urgent. Ester stays on the boat. She isn't happy. She wants him to hurry. She thinks everything is going er, swimmingly.
Herny at the pool thinking about how he'll get rid of DamDelicious during his honeymoon, he is now a partner in bidness with Marina in which she will be close to him. Herny's womens have arrived. They work hard for the money, so hard for it honey, er, well you know. They are in his room changing. They now come out to the pool, group kissing ensues, I'll leave it at that.
DamDelicious goes to the Harbor Master to see what is up and of course encounters Marina. She called him back to tell him she'll fight for her love, she'll prove she ain't no coward. It's getting warm ladies and gentlemen. Now it's getting warmer with that nice bear hug he gives Marina, sigh! Besos now ensue. He'll think about her the whole trip and she'll be waiting for him to come back.
Ester is getting impatient on the sailboat. Her DamDelicious hubby should have been back by now!
DamFabilicious has Marina in his manly muscular arms and she tells him about hearing his Madrina and how the voice told her to get Damilicious to come back. He says he saw his Madrina and mentions it was like a warning of danger. The only danger is a trip with PesterEster. He doesn't think there is any danger. Marina wants him to be careful. Everything is fine and dandy, hush your mouth Capitancito! It's like putting the devil on the wall. Old German expression, my dearly departed Mama used to say this all the time. It's like saying, Don't say it cause it may happen! Now DamDelicious has Marina encircled in those manly arms of his, pulls her close and ravishes her with kisses. Ester comes upon them and is pithed. She doesn't confront them though, she feels humilated and thinks how long will this slut of a woman be chasing her DamDelicious hubby. but she will not be separated from her DamDelicious hunk of a manly man on her honeymoon. Yeah, keep dreaming Estercita! She stalks off.
The New Hash:
Ain't Misbehavin'
Damdelicious and Marina are still out in front of the Harbor Master's office still sucking face in front of the whole town. Just imagine if Fully or Herny had come by! What about Bea, the scandal! Anyhoo, it's time to say bye for now. Fabilicious tells Marina she is the only woman he will eva love, to remember that, but he's gotta go with the PesterEster. She knows she will think about him all that time and he asks her to wait for him. They ti amo each other and many besos and he reluctantly walks away. The theme song plays.

Corazón Indomable Fri August 30 There Will Be Mud
I have a feeling the actual mud eating will be drawn out tonight and we won't actually see it until Friday...LoriLoo
Maybe you'll even get the wedding tonight...Vivi
there looks like a high risk pregnancy on its way to delivery tonight as well... Carlos
And so it was...
As the time for tonight's episode draws near some of our more rabid mudthirsty Carayistas are already assuming their places. We immediately spot the placid Madame Judy deFarge already rocking in front of her flickering vintage black and white Philco impassively tending her knitting. Gringo Robespierre is nervously glancing at his watch and muttering to himself about some goddess, mud eating, and sweet revenge. Let's tune into the show...
Ester is lying on the ground just outside the embarrassment of a hovel that José Antonio has constructed for them to live in. Her new BFF Clorinda announces that she has brought dessert but seeing her neighbor sprawled out unconscious on the earth she rushes to her side shouting,
"¡Ay, Jesús Cristo!"
and tries to rouse her.
 |
| She Must Have Added Too Much Onion To Those Beans |
I'm guessing those delicious rice and beans with onion, salt, and the little microscopic river creatures will be put on hold for the moment. Heck, one of my favorite things about these TNs is the delicious food.
Suddenly we are transported to Isla Dorada, Ester will simply have to wait for now.
Lucía is impeccably dressed in a stunning blue gown as she climbs up a slight incline followed by casino employees, Maricruz, Octavio, Miguel, Doris and other invited guests. She stops short and gasps as it dawns on her what Maricruz has planned for her. She wasn't expecting a bed of roses, but irony of ironies that is exactly what she is confronted with. However this rose bed has been altered slightly and she finds herself gazing into the gaping maw of a freshly prepared mud pit. We are treated to sepia flashbacks to an earlier time and an earlier mud pit... a fango lined with cacti. It suddenly occurs to her,
"I should have dressed more casually for this."
 |
| I Should Have Worn An Old Dress |
Yep, a fango and here she is dressed more appropriately for tango.

Weekend Discussion: Paging Carla Estrada! We have a project for you!
For a long time I've thought about what a great job Televisa could do if they had the remake rights to the US cult-TV classic Dark Shadows. Consider how it could be improved with an earlier period of time for the birth of its unusual protagonist (how about the 15th century?), the addition of legends like that of La Llorona, and the right cast. Of course, the original music by Robert Cobert would be there along with more great stuff from Jorge Avendaño
and Carlos Paramo.

The Honeymoon Does Not Begin
With A Guest Appearance from Tomas the Magnificent, World Famous Psychic
San Francisco,
California
Friday, 30 August,
2013
So I was doing some
remote viewing and I found myself pretty intrigued with the goings on in
R-Laydee. Arson? A twin kidnapped at birth and separated from her Mother and
sister? The Captain of a local fishing boat is the hottest thing since newly
baked bread? Interesting.
I gave my friend
Eusebia a call. Doña Eusebia and I are old pals: we met at a psychic’s
convention in Nuestra Señora del Mar, Veracruz, Mexico, in 1989. She was
demonstrating Mayan cures for depression and I was speaking on my favorite
topic, ‘Good Intentions’. You know, how the Road to Hell is paved with them?
Anyway, we have been close friends ever since.
Eusebia and I used to
schedule time to speak remotely—mind to mind— twice a month. These days we have
both gotten a little lazy and tend to catch up on our iPhones, but I still keep
a remote ‘eye’ on Nuestra Señora del Mar just to keep in touch. I love that
funky little fishing village on the Gulf.

Qué Bonito Amor #98 (Mex 136) Thursday 8/29/13 Que Bonito Estancamiento
Maria gives Amalia a shot. Amalia wonders how much more misfortune they can handle. She can't stop worrying about her daughters. Even Wendy doesn't think Maria is safe with Ruben on the loose.
Ruben's bleeding from a head wound and even that didn't burst his thought bubble of "Maria will be mine!"
Santos tells Michael that Etrusco came to visit him and threatened Maria.
Wendy decides to call her dad and tell him to get her the hell out of there. She's back to blaming Santos for this mess, but Amalia (!) and Maria defend him. Maria blames Wendy's dead boyfriend.
Santos tells Michael he's ready to sacrifice his life and spend it in jail to keep Maria safe. He waxes rhapsodic about how wonderful Maria is. He hopes she'll live for both of them now.
Amalia doesn't want to just wait around and see what's going to happen. She only half jokes that they sure could use a man around the place. As Maria rightly points out, they don't need no stinkin' man…they've got the Virgen! Plus Jorge Alfredo is in her heart.

CI Cap. 78 8-29-13 Oh, the Drama and the Trauma! Lucia’s Invited to the Rose Garden and Ester’s Between the Rocks and a Hard Place.
The strands of drama (Lucia) and trauma (Ester) twist
tightly through this episode, with only a few bits of wedding fluff for comic
relief.
Previously
Doris and Mariana discuss the upcoming Ed/Arecely wedding and how SUD will go so Daddy Gov will stay home. (Hey, it made sense to Doris.)
Ed and Teflon Tav discuss the wedding madrina and compare the bride’s cheap dress with Doris’ expensive couture creation. The guys agree it’s the woman inside who counts. Tav loved MariCruz in rags more than MariAle in satin.
Arecely and Sonia are thrilled to open a check for $3,000 in honeymoon money from Madrina MariAle. The Gov, meanwhile, is sending a check for $1,000 while Doris chips in a measly $200 (not too much, not too little she says).
After a chilly formal greeting, our two gorgeous antagonists get down to business. Lucia hopes for mercy, but MA is quick to point out Lucia showed no mercy to her, so she can’t expect any in return. However, there’s another option and Lucia can do her bit.

The Cat Toys with
the Mouse
MariAle tells Lucia her plan for redeeming Miguel’s IOUs so he won’t have to go to jail for non-payment. If she agrees, the payment term is extended to one year. If not, it’s only 24 hours. When MA says it’s a hard thing, Lucia sarcastically says she’s sure it is. Really, the merciless MA continues, it’s simple, but annoying. (A little understatement here, MA?)

The smiling ice queen tells her victim that so much could
happen in a year. A defiant Lucia claims she doesn’t regret anything she did,
with MA retorting “You will.” When Lucia opts into the plan, MA tells her to
bring Miguel and Tav with her at 4 pm tomorrow afternoon, to rendezvous on the
casino dock.

and an apology. Ahhh, he’s Alma’s super hero. Jesus justifies to Alma why he is giving Marta another
chance. He shares his overflowing
plate of tasks with Alma, but he had to see her.

Corazon Indomable #77 The Truth It Must Be Told
I can’t believe it’s my turn again for the recap. Didn’t I just do it?
Here's part 1:
We start with MA informing Miguel that she’s calling in her debt. Miguel says that he needs time to repay her but MA wants it now. She therefore wants the ranch. Miguel says he won’t part with the ranch and MA says there’s one way to keep the ranch, it’s to have Lucia come to ask for the IOUs.
Miguel runs to Octavio to cry on his shoulder. He mentions that MC wants to put him in jail if he doesn’t pay up, even after he was the one who got her out of jail. Thankfully, Oblivio fired up his brain this morning and reminds Miguel that it was his wife that put her wrongfully in jail in the first place. He tells him that MC wants Lucia to go see her, so that she can humiliate her. Yes! Me too! But wait. Captain Oblivio has a plan. He’ll go instead. Wait, what? That’s the plan? That’ll work against a woman who spends night and day plotting her revenge against people she despises. Except your not that cute Oblivio.

La Tempestad Cap #23 Wed, 28 August - I'm Nobody! Who are you?*
*With a nod to Emily Dickinson. I hope she doesn’t mind. (And everybody is somebody.)
Old hat: Mercedes calls the mystery number. Mucky Mag answers the phone but nobody’s home. According to Mags she is Nadie, nadie, nadie. "That voice," sighs Mercedes. Hernan makes his heinous offer to Maria. “Take me on as a partner”. No Marina no!!
New hat: Marina says it’s gonna cost a bundle. Hernan wants to rebuild the empacadora together, build a dream together, JUNTOS. Blech.
Marina says she needs to consult with Mercedes first. Hernan tells her to accept it, they will be partners and together they will rebuild the fishery.
Dam tells Pestercita he’s ready to set sail (zarpar) for that trip she’s been yearning for SO MUCH. But he asks that she have no illusions. It’s no honeymoon baby, it’s a good-bye voyage. (So why bother?)

·
Santos is told who El Padrino is: one of the most feared capos of El Mafia who
is surely behind the gang responsible for the fraud. He should be careful and not speak his name
too loudly; he has followers everywhere – a la Voldermort. Santos swears he'll make him pay for
everything he's been through.

JNTR – Maria and Susie meet w/Concho and demand
he draw up an agreement ensuring that all employees receive seguro social, a 5%

PEAM #122- 8/28/13: A Lot Happens at Avon, and Nothing To Do With Work! WooHoo!
Recap by Pablo
We all know that two restless girls, a dog and a tube of superglue is not a good combination, right?
We might not know what are they up to, but with that in mind, I wouldn't sleep! Or I'd sleep with one eyed superglued!
Alma and Jesús exchange vows yet again, they look like the perfect couple. Maybe they are. Who knows? Could this be the calm before the storm?
Everybody deserves a second chance, even if that kills you!
Jéssica wants to break up with Oliverio and Xóchitl advises her not to. On the other side of the wall, Ricardo and Oli cry like girls even though the doctor has promised Oli a vaccine to cure the allergy he has to Jéssica´s kisses.
Jesús doesn't feel well... looks like his nose is too big for that head and is pulling him down. His eyesight is blurry and he grabs the chair. The only good remedy for those dizziness attacks is PEAM bottled water. Yes! The same water Alma drinks. You know you can always trust the same company that makes uniforms and lap tops, right?
There's gotta be something in that PEAM water, maybe is ionized, maybe has been solarized, the thing is that as soon as you take a sip, you feel better again, like a new man! Good, because in 15 minutes the deadline expires to deliver some project.

Qué Bonito Amor #96 (Mex 134) Tuesday 8/27/13 Que Pasa?
Not sure if there was a mix up in who was to recap last night, but it's getting late. I'm sure you are all bursting with comments about all the action last night. Please feel free to unload here. If the recap appears, I'll delete this and paste any comments under the recap.
All I remember was that:
1) Maria was turned down at the visa office because the U.S. officials saw that she was a delinquente, arrested for harboring a known (?) criminal.
2) Santos is yanked from his cell and put in a darkened room and he's sure he's going to be tortured or killed, but it turns out that it's Michael and Big Guy who are there to greet him. The two "bros" fill each other in on everything that has gone on in their lives.
3) Lourdes and Don Concho don't know what to do about their errant daughter.
4) Maria gets prepared to face down Concho and heads there with Susanito (he has the documents that prove he truly is a biological descendent of Don Concepcion--aptly named, I would say).
4) Derecho has his medal snatched back because Don Justo threatens to sue the State of California for inept investigation and putting his son's safety at risk. [Thank you, Decie]
5) OJ makes a phone call threatening Don Justo's family (I think). The phone booth says, "Telephone" in yellow, so he must be stateside.
6) Don Justo meets with El Padrino and ElP wants to know where OJ called from (I think).
7) We have a truly unnecessary scene with Roddy giving Paloma the surprise of her life--a runaway horsie ride. Apparently, it all turns out alright, because they have a picnic.
8) Wendy is having a hard time adjusting to life in the barrio--in mid-shower, the water dries up, literally leaving her in a soapy shampoo dither. [Thank you Decie]

From Yesterday:
Read more »
DamFab carries Marina to safety in those manly muscular arms of his. Mercedes holds Marina and cries. Jose subtely lets Mercedes know that she should let Beatriz hold her daughter. Beatriz holds Marina and cries. Tia Becky notices Mercedes' strange behavior throughout all of this. DamFab has gone back inside the building to rescue Hernan. DamFab helps get Hernan out of the burning building. At the hospital, Marina is wheeled in to be examined by Doc Suspenders. Beatriz thanks DamFan and Hernan. Although I don't understand why she thanks Hernan. Sure he did try to save Marina too but he didn't really do anything. Anyway, Hernan tells DamFab that he owes him one. DamFab tells Hernan they are even since Hernan called the ambulance when he was wounded with the spear. The fireman tells Olinto that the offices and the warehouses were the most damaged by the fire. The fireman also tells Olinto that the fire was set on on purpose. Olinto is mega impactado! DamFab is in the chapel and he prays.
Today:
At the hospital chapel, DamFab cries and prays to La Virgencita for Marina's wellbeing.
In the waiting room, Bea and Mercedes are all emotional as they talk about motherhood. Bea's life wouldn't have any meaning without Marina. Bea does not know what she'd do without Marina's smile, without watching Marina get up every morning, without Marina's kisses, and without hearing Marina call her Mama. Mercedes talks about how beautiful and priceless the word Mama is to a mother. The word Mama is the nourishment of a mother's heart when it comes from the mouth of our children, says Mercedes. Bea agrees with Mercedes. Bea says that her life has been total happiness ever since Marina came into it. Bea and Mercedes laugh a little over how emotional they have gotten. Bea says that it is because all women are like that when a child of theirs has touched their heart. Bea asks Mercedes the first million dollar question of the night - Are you also a mother? Before Mercedes can respond, Jose and Tia Becky arrive with some cofee and tea. Tia Becky asks if there is any news about Marina yet. Beatriz says no. Jose is sure that they will get news soon. Tia Becky says what a tragedy the burning of the packing plant was. Tia Becky thinks that there will be a lot of people who will be left unemployed. Mercedes says that she won't let that happen. As long as the packing plant is able to function like before they will find a way so no one is affected. Tia Becky realizes that Mercedes also owns the packing plant and she tells her how sorry she is that it burned down. Mercedes says that the burning of the packing plants represents a high cost but what matters is that no one was hurt. Tia Becky agrees with Mercedes. Bea then asks Mercedes the second million dollar question of the night - How did you end up with the packing plant? Did you buy it from my deceased husband?

Okay, I'll recap it. But I'm telling you, hardly anything happens. A few things are wrapped up and a few things get started, but this is mostly fluff and filler.

-
Tav informs Miguel and Lucia that Maria
Alejandra is Maricruz, and she wants revenge on the three of them for all the
horrible things they did to her. In addition to being rich, she also has a
powerful friend in the Gov and can make lots of trouble for them. He advises
Lucia to leave the island, and Miguel to stop working at the casino.
-
Tav returns to the hotel and happily tells Ed
that he’s SINGLE! You see, he married MC Olivares, but MC Olivares does not
legally exist any longer—MA Mendoza does, and he didn’t marry MA Mendoza. He
puts on his tux, meets up with Doris, and suggests they go to the casino that
night. He’s looking to cause some trouble.
-
Miguel goes to the casino and gives Raiza his
resignation. He says he will find employment elsewhere on the island in order
to pay MA and Raiza back. He sadly lets Razia know that he’s lost his inheritance/land,
and will likely soon lose his freedom.

Here is Gloria's Monday Masterpiece for your reading pleasure!
Robles tells Jaz he sees no reason for her to be working at the cantina. He asks for a beer. Jaz asks how much longer he’s going to be around. Why asks Robles. Do you want me to leave? Of course not replies Jaz. The truth says Robles is that the investigation is coming to a close. We haven’t found anything. But let’s talk about you. (What most women want to hear, but not Jaz) We talk a lot, but I hardly know you. Jaz drops a glass and Robles tells her to leave it. She tells him she has told him everything. He keeps questioning her and she keeps looking at Nereo. Robles looks towards Nereo wondering the connection. He asks her if she knows him, but she says he’s just a customer. Another customer asks for a drink and saves her from further interrogation. Robles saves the bottle with her fingerprints.
The cab driver and Mercedes are trying to locate the homeless girl but can’t find her. They decide to abandon the search. In the alley is a finely manicured homeless girl, picking up a cigarette off the ground and smoking it. Mercedes is driving off in the cab and wonders who the girl was.

Lo
del pasado:
Susanito talks about making Concho pay for denying him. Concho rants about how weak Susanito is to his wife until Pinchi comes in to explain about Santos' arrest. Michael's prison informant tells him about the arrest and how Santos will be under heavy surveilance. Amalia and the girls and Wendy, yadda yadda yadda.
As
the police car goes off toward the airport Jorge Alfredo thinks of
Maria and better times while Maria removes things from his apartment
and remembers other great things [including something that was
censored out here, maldita sea]. We hear “Mexico Lindo y Querido”
through this.
Mendoza
Apartment: Maria gets home and sees Wendy. She makes a
(justified) sarcastic comment about her staying there. Paloma and
Roddy talk about Maria and her pain and how Paloma has feelings of
helplessness about it. Maria, meanwhile, takes her pain out on Wendy
for her past snobbery about poverty. Wendy tries to be conciliatory
and Amalia seems to take her side.

PEAM #120 - 08/26/13 - The Clock Ticks Toward Chatita's Doom Like a Bomb Timer on MI-5
Retread: Alma talks about work in her sleep and Jesús tries to sleep. She tells Susana that Avon has to be ahead and needs a new campaign to succeed. They sleep.
Valentina sets the frog free, with Sanson looking on. Too bad they can't go with the froggy toward freedom in the woods.
Jesús, pines over Valentina's empty room and greets Alma as he lies about how well he slept. She doesn't believe it so he tells her about the mosquito and then under pressure reveals her sleep-talking.
Veronica the ever well dressed Mom has to be told by Valentina that she is in her pajamas.
Chatita calls Jesús in desperation as Tornino/Tornado breaks through the doors with municipal police heavies to evict Chatita from her apartment. He tells Chatita to pass the phone to Tornido so he can tell him that the check is on the way and he knows that he is a man of his word so the check will be on the way to the "CLIENT" later today. Jesús asks for the check from Aida and Mal-kiddy tries his taunting but Jesús leaves without further tolerance. And Julio stands up for his boss trying to put the Kiddy in his place. Meantime Chatita is feeding the heavies.
On to the new stuff which is really much more of the old stuff: Jesús is at the cashier trying to hurry a snippy cashier while Mal-Kiddy listens in.
Veronica is arguing with Valentina's teacher Jovina about whether Valentina is miserable or not. Veronica insists that Valentina doesn't know what she is talking about. Further she has a new partner, Roger who is a muy, pero muy importante business man.

Amores Verdaderos EXTRA – El Clamor Publico No. 5 – 8/25/13
El Clamor Público
This is the next to last edition of El Clamor Público©.
There are rumors that Jeff Bezos is
interested in aquiring it (supposedly aimed at expanding opportunities for a certain study group of the Spanish language found somewhere on the internet). This one does not include Weekend
Edition Headlines. There is a Patio
Chatter from the Past, Re-Quotable Quotes, Balzac
(heh heh) Highlights, The Collected Wisdom of Diana, and Cristina’s Death Notice. Ed. Note: Most all portions of the content have appeared elsewhere.
The editorial staff is aware there is competition for attention over on La Tempestad, but as yet they have not begun any publications in the Pueblo de La Lay-Dee del Mar.
Nikki’s lapel and collar is made up of the carcasses of
several multi-colored road-kill rabbits. [Cynderella’s episode #98]
Fashion police wanted! What was up with Nikki's dead animal
vest…[Anon]
Do the circus clowns know that Nikki stole the shag rug out
of their van? What was that thing she was wearing, Yikes! [MC]
MC--You'll soon find all kinds of shag rug pieces at
Meta*Mart (hemmed, sanitized and brushed). We predict they are going to be a
best seller item this Spring with Miss Nikki as the fashion pace-setter.
[Anita]
Oy! I was blocking that shag rug shrug/shawl shoulder wrap
thing out of my memory bank, and y'all had to mention it... I won't be ordering
one because I know our dog would attack it or think its a toy and rip it to
shreds. [Doris]
We also have the same shaggy merchandise for sale in the Pet
Dept. (Hint--they are cheaper there because they are seconds. After all, they
are going to get peed on and ripped up right away.) [Anita]
The vest or whatever it was looked like roadkill hit by
paintballs. [GinCA]
I could not take my eyes off of Nikki's furry vest thingy. I
kept wondering what it was made out of. Who would purchase and buy such a
thing? And if I would be seeing it soon in a store near me, like so many other
tn fashion statements. [Vivi]

Hola, PEAM Peeps! This recap will not be in order, I like to randomly mix things up, just kidding. It's for smoother flow, better flow, er, take your pick.
Last Time on PEAM:

Today on PEAM:
Valentina tells that froggy pooh to stay on that bed, and Valentina and her henchie, Sanson exit the room and wait for the fireworks! Valentina is in bed and Moronica comes to tuck her in. Moronica tries to tell Val that Royer is a good guy, yeah when pigs fly, er, Val doesn't buy what Moronica is selling. The faithfull henchie, Sanson, has not left Val's side. As a matter of fact, he is gonna sleep with her on the bed! Guess who flies off the broom handle? Yeah, Moronica who actually tries to yank Sanson off the bed. Sanson uses his manly growl on Moronica and she ends up going, whining and gnashing her teeth. Good boy, Sanson! After Moronica leaves, Val can't wait to see what happens when they find out that frog is in their bed, Que Padre! Later, Moronica goes to the bedchamber she shares with Royer and gives him hell about Sanson being in Val's room. Royer isn't that happy about his hijo being in Val's room either. While they are arguing, Moronica hears the frog. Royer thinks it's nothing and tells her to ignore it. Val is still up listening to see what happens with that frog!
