CI #131 -- Lost and Found: Simona Misplaces The Mini-Tav While Nilda Makes Contact With Solita
We settle in for another round of redneck hobsnobbery as the doc is informing Esther, Octavio and Miguel
that Jose Antonio will be off the job for the next two weeks, and admits that
he has a legal duty to report the shooting. Esther goes in to chat with her hubby while Migui
and Tav ask if the doc knows who shot JA and why. The doc tells them what JA told him: that it
was a tenant from Rancho Narvaez over some personal dispute. (Sorry, Doc, but the name’s been changed to El
Abuelo. I suppose they forgot to make
the script change…..) Tav thinks out
loud saying he’s relieved it wasn’t about “her”…..la Sra. Maricruz. Migui does a quick verbal shuffle explaining
how Esther and she don’t get along and that perhaps JA wanted to avoid having
to mention her name. The doc says nope,
nothing like that and then takes his leave.
Migui does another mental number on Tav to make him continue to doubt MC’s
good character when it comes to other men in the region.

Mentir Para Vivir #26 Mon 11/11/13 Mentir para engañar a la tonta de Lila
Jose Luis is explaining Eliseo that he bailed on Raquel’s inauguration
party because he can’t be seen by his wife just yet. Idiot Eliseo thinks this
is Corazon Indomable and some beard and a different hair could forbid Oriana from
recognizing her husband, but JL knows better.
Joaquin calls just then and JL explains that he found the company to use
for their lavado de dinero (money laundering)
– they don’t need the capital, but he’s sure he can pull off the transaction.
We don’t hear how much money they’ll “invest”, but it’s a lot.
Eliseo tries to find out what is the deal, but JL puts him in his place.
Casa Bonita is getting ready for the big opening, with a pool filled of
flower petals. Nice.
Ruben is getting all dressed up to go to the party; since Madhilde wasn’t
invited, she wants him to refuse attendance, too – normally, I’d agree with the
wife in situations like this, but this is Maddy, so she has it well deserved.
She thinks they should have at least invited her as a gesture and if she
can’t go, then Ruben won’t either. But he really, really wants to go – and he
states this in a ridiculous childish voice, like he was a 10 year old going to
his first sleep over.
Maddy accuses him of sleeping with one of the women, el desgraciado!
Oriana, Alina, Ricardo and Paloma arrive at the party; Lucina welcomes
them, as Raquel looks on. Then she notices that Lucina is searching for Ruben
in the crowd. Raquel explains that Francisco isn’t attending because he’s in a
business trip; Lucina implies that something might be going on between Raquel
and Francisco, because, you know, she’s Raquel.

La Tempestad, November 11, 2013. Capitulo 76.
DamFab comes to tell his daughter and Marina good night. Ungrateful Marina tells him there is no need. Just because their daughter was born doesn't mean anything has changed. Estercita is still expecting a another child of his. DamFab reminds her that it was a set-up. Marina recognizes that, but he let himself fall victim. DamFab feels that the baby Estercita is expecting is not his. He asks her to have confidence in him. He loves her. They kiss.
Mexico City: Crazy Hernan tells Ernesto how much he really hates him. You have turned me into a man without scruples. He pulls out a gun. Ernesto asks him if he would kill his own father. Crazy eyed Hernan tells him to come up with a better lie. Ernesto says he is not afraid of death and is not lying. But you told me you killed by parents replies Hernan. Ernesto says I ordered the man who raised you to die. I liked your mother but she kept rejecting me. So that is why I took her by force. Shut up! yells Hernan. You are making me tell you everything and you will know the truth. She kept quiet so that I wouldn't do anything to her husband. Somehow he found out the truth and that is why I ordered for them both to be killed. How can you talk about this coldly? Ernesto says in this type of business there are no feelings. That is why I never told you where they were buried. There was no reason for you to mourn them. Crazy eyed Hernan grabs Ernesto and says he's going to kill him. Ernesto dares him to shoot the man that gave him life. Crazy eyed Hernan tells Ernesto he detests him. He can't kill him, but life is a b!tch and it will make him pay for all he has done. Ernesto says he knew that Hernan didn't have the balls to do it. Ernesto tells Hernan that even though he has become a traitor, he can't kill him since he is his son. Hernan says he preferred to never know that Ernesto is his father. I would rather have died not knowing the truth. He leaves.

PEAM #175, Nov. 11 - Penultimate Monday - A Night Without Veronica Is A Night To Party, Party, Party
With heartfelt thanks to our military men and women who give so much to their country, I hope we all observed and honored this Veterans Day (named Veterans Day in 1954) was established in 1919 and re-dedicated in 1938 as Armistice Day, November 11, celebrated and dedicated to the cause of world PEACE. Anyway, happy holiday to our heroes!!
But enough for now we need to see Yuri approaching the doomed Rogelio at the prison that has become so like a fraternity meet up until Yuri steps into the cafeteria to scare the recovering wheel chair bound curly top. Both looked like there are great barbers in the prison.
Jesus is rushing to set up interference in the prison but Yuri's flunkies roll Rogelio to his date with Picadillo. Yuri waves a plastic spoon letter opener or juarever while he threatens but the wheel chair is left empty while Rogelio stabs Yuri with his weapon, suddenly when Jesus can get no action from the police because they haven't heard any death screams, the death screams come from a bloodied Yuri. Rather than being astounded in fear, the adoring Yuri crowd celebrates the fall of the giant and Jack rides off in triumph for the moment.
Chatita's diagnosis of sore throat is confirmed by the real doctor who assures her and Alma that baby Luisa is perfectly well.

Corazon Indomable #130, 11/11/13: Ren & Stimpy Rule the World!...uhm, the Ranch!; Who Shot JA?
You keep your dream, and I'll keep the money! – Ren & Stimpy
Ren and Stimpy, aka Miguel and Tav, discuss taking over the
world, uhm… $imona’s ranch. Dimwitted Stimpy agrees to put the management of
$imona’s lands in Ren’s eager greedy hands. Tav will do the legal paper work. Happy-happy, joy-joy! (Ren & Stimpy)
Miguel knocks back a double shot of tequila, and convinces
Tav that it’s best that no one else know just how crazy Simona is. But then he
turns around and tries once again to convince Tav to lock her up, since she could
be a danger to both of their sons. Tav refuses.
At Rancho Abuelo, MC and Juanita ream Perico out about
impregnating Solita, especially given that Solita is still recovering from pneumonia
and is in delicate health. Perico doesn’t seem to understand how this could be
(uhm, shall we explain it with dolls or stick figures?). MC insists that they
need to be married by the Church, immediately. Juanita is a little less
understanding and calls him a criminal! After the dumb shock wears off, Perico seems
to be happy about the news, but for some stupid reason he doesn’t mention that
he and Solita are already married by law (por el civil). He does say that he
loves Solita. He has no family and was raised like an animal in the mountains
(that explains a lot!). MC is cool with him, as long as he doesn’t leave his
child in the same wild animal conditions. And he needs a plan for supporting
his woman and his two kids. He assures them that this wasn’t Solita’s fault and
they love each other. Juanita’s ready to tear him a new one, but MC thinks what’s
done is done, and now they need to get the Padre to marry them. Then MC scolds
Juanita for her part in not preventing the horny teenagers from having sex,
because that’s the priority when there are two toddlers to look after. Perico
runs upstairs to see Solita, and MC waxes romantic about leaving the kids alone
to enjoy their sweet romance (well, the damage IS already done).

TELEMUNDO Y MÁS: THE FRONT PAGE, week of November 11, 2013. La Reina del Sur is back in town!
Jean and I decided to try something a little different this week. Since there is already a lot of interest in the continuing novelas, Marido en Alquiler and Santa Diabla, and the rebroadcast of La Reina del Sur is likely to stir up a flurry of its own, we have decided to post THREE SEPARATE PAGES:
This page -- THE FRONT PAGE -- is the space for discussions of La Reina del Sur, ¿Dónde Está Elisa? and any other Telemundo, Unimas or Mundo2 shows.
Feel free to copy and paste our old comments and recaps of La Reina here. Some of us have seen this one, maybe more than once, and are planning to sit out this showing. But if you have already seen the novela and want to join the conversation, please go ahead! But remember that this remains a SPOILER-FREE page.
Novelera has offered to write a full recap of the first episode of La Reina del Sur to get things started. After that, you can figure out what you'd like to do -- recap? mini-recap? just discuss? borrow from the past? It's up to you, Telemundo fans!
Remember: Post comments and mini-recaps (or not so mini-recaps) for
Santa Diabla on its own separate page
here; and for
Marido en Alquiler on its own separate page
here.

A tale of a fateful trip

Aboard this network UNI
The recappers were a mighty bunch
The viewers all were glued to WL

A three month tour

Porque el Amor Manda #174: More Monkeyshines
[Done from memory, without notes...because WHY SHOULD I WORK HARDER THAN THE WRITERS?]
Roger gets all prettied up for the jailhouse wedding. We know he's a good guy now coz they finally found him some shoes that don't clash with his suit. Paty has more fabric in her left sleeve than the whole rest of her dress, casual. They kind of fast-forward through the ceremony, which in typical Mexican fashion has five times more document-signing than kissing, but juarevs -- everyone's all smiles. No lasso of love, but I guess it's not the venue. Domi catches the bouquet, and she and Cantu do the happy dance.
Afterward the beaming couple repair to the rose-petal strewn prison infirmary conjugal suite, where Paty strips down to a particularly fetching Federico's of Monterrey number that has Rog's eyes popping. She bounces around on the bed, urging him to come and get it, rise and shine, throw away those crutches and walk, baby -- and he does! It's sort of a cross between Joanna Spyri's
Heidi and a Viagra commercial, and yes, that's as creepy as it sounds. I don't think the monkeys should be allowed to collaborate. They have such different visions.

Corazon Indomable Episode #129: The Various Coats of Octavio Narvaez
We begin with JA/MC discussing Simona. MC wants the Narvaez
family to feel the pain she felt when they kidnapped Lupita (Too bad, I don’t
think either of them care about Simona that much). However, since she is much
better in character because she agrees to let JA take her back home. (The talk about
something that I did not quite catch but I believe it referred to MC suspecting
JA about something).
Simona returns to her house without a care in the world. She
informs our two upstanding men of honor (insert dripping sarcasm here) that she
just came back from a pleasant visit with Lucia. Miguel looks shocked while
Octavio is worried. She bids them goodnight and tells them that they better go
back home because Lucia is waiting. The minute she leaves McGreedy is quick to
say Octavio should detain her in a crazy house. Octavio who decided wear his
“Bleeding heart” coat today is appalled by Miguel brashness. He will care for
Simona till his dying day (yea..whatever, I’ve heard that before). Lets digress and discuss the various coats in
Octavio’s closet…. lets see we have jerk, insensitive, romantic (no worries
this coat is hidden with much dust over it). Then we have his most worn out
coat all, which is stupidity; actually I do not think he ever takes that
off.
Sorry back to the show…. Miguel does not like JA giving his
opinions on these matters. JA reminds them that if he goes down…they will too
(uh oh). Octavio decides to borrow someone’s “wise saying” coat and warns
Miguel…. this is why you shouldn’t involve yourself with delinquents.

Mentir Para Vivir #25 Fri 11/8/13 Bad Boy Berto Gets Bagged; Ricardo and Oriana Get Tagged
Cap. #25
At Paloma’s expansive manse Oriana, aka
2nes, is pacing the floors and driving Paloma (as well as Viewerville) crazy
worrying about Ricardo’s safety. If she’s
that worried, suggests Paloma with wizened certitude, she should never have
broken off their relationship. 2nes says
no, they should never have allowed one to develop in the first place!
Across town at their new B&B, Lucina
and Raquel are discussing their list of invitees to their upcoming open
house. Lucina mentions that Raqi needs
to be a bit more tolerant of Oriana since she’s going through a bad spell. The cause?
It seems that Jose Luis never really died and is now in Hermosillo! Raqi’s first thought is that he’ll bring the
Colombian authorities down on all their heads and Oriana and the two of them
will end up being cellmates. Perhaps the Colombian authorities figured to
follow him here so they could track down his wife, suggests Raqi. No, they’d have already pounced if that was
the case, reasons Lucina. He no doubt
escaped and is here to get his wife and daughter back! “—Poor Oriana! She’s walking an emotional tightrope about
now!” Cara de serves-the-wench-right de
Raqi.

Mentir Para Vivir #24 Thu 11/7/13 Planificar para Atrapar
Paloma tells Ricardo that she can't talk to Inés about her past, she doesn't want to embarrass her. She figures Inés must be upset still because of the anonymous letter, but Ricardo disagrees. Lina shows up to chastise Ricardo for not taking her to the fair and buying her a hamburger and a ginormous milkshake. Ricardo says they can go right away, but she needs to get her mom's permission. Paloma begs off joining them. As Lina goes off to get permission, Paloma tells Ricardo she's also supposed to be throwing Lina a party, though she hasn't gotten started yet. Ricardo fills Paloma in on Maria's new medication and Sebastian's same crappy attitude.
Inés doesn't want to go to the fair and she doesn't want Lina to go either. Lina tries yelling, then she tries pouting, but Inés won't budge. Even pleading won't work.
Ricardo tells Paloma that he's wondering if Sebastian is really his son. He explains that when they were young Maria once ran away from the house and when he found her, she was flirting with some guy, so now he's wondering if maybe Maria was "promiscuous." Paloma doesn't believe it. She suggests asking Celio what he knows, since he's been with the family for so long. Inés shows up with her fake excuses why Lina can't go to the fair and raises Paloma's suspicions…Paloma assumes the blackmailer has been in contact and is now threatening Lina. This forces Inés to admit that, no, Lina hasn't been threatened, but the blackmailer has been in contact. Paloma wants to just pay them, but Ricardo argues that they'll never be able to stop once they start. Ricardo wants to look at Inés computer and Paloma tells her to have Lina come to her (Paloma's) room to play.

La Tempestad, Thursday November 7, 2013 —No Puede Ser
Miami, Florida
A Penthouse Apartment
To: Señor Televisa Ejecutivo
Senior Vice President
International Programming
Sales
Dear Señor Ejecutivo:
I am writing to inform you of
my progress in combining ‘La Tempestad’ with Disney’s ‘Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride’.
At the risk of sounding too self-congratulatory I must say that things are
going splendidly.
I am settling in to my ‘day
job’ at Univision in Miami and no one suspects that I am on a mission from
Corporate Televisa to undermine the mental health of the American TN viewing
audience. This editing position is a
piece of cake—really, I could just cut and chop at random and I think few would
notice.
However, Don Televisa, (I am
always your humble servant) I took your suggestion and used my time wisely
whilst recuperating in Los Angeles. I faithfully went to the tanning and
massage salon that you suggested and I took frequent field trips to Disneyland
with that unsophisticated dolt, Nareo.

CI capítulo 128, Thur. 11-7-13 -- The Good, the Bad, and the Crazy. (You Decide Who’s Who.)
Simona involves Maricruz in the main
drama of this episode. The Narvaez brothers share in this problem, while some
secondary characters stir and simmer their own drama in the background. The smaller matters will be summarized first,
then on to the juicy stuff.
Previously
Simona puts on a convincing
show for the doctors, answering their questions correctly and appearing quite
sane and logical. They leave.
Perico
discusses marriage at Solita (not with, exactly.) She understands once he
points to his ring finger. She happily mimes a wedding crown, veil, and long
train on a dress. He can’t afford a lavish wedding and somehow makes her
understand. She happily agrees to a simple ceremony.
Valdez
of the rodent face is visiting Vargas and saying the people must move from the
Rancho Narvaez settlement so gold extraction can begin.
Land Grabbing and Gossip
Valdez and Vargas discuss the
wild colony (Realengo) and the rancho colony (Narvaez). If Vargas would just
cooperate in moving everyone out, he could become the CEO of a utility company
in the city. If he doesn’t, who knows where he could end up? (So much for
Solita and MC hosting his wedding at the hacienda.)
Clorinda
stops by to visit Ester. The people are restless and miserable; they need to see
a solution to the land and housing problem. By the way, Amador is doing better
with his daughter Lina. He brings her treats and pays more attention to her. And
Simona is BSC. Clo needs to find Padre Julian and let him know there’s violence
brewing with the poor folk. That
evening, Padre Julian visits Ester and Clorinda returns. There are five sick
people at the riverside and the situation is dangerous.

The return of Lupita Narvaez CI #127 Wed Nov.7th, 2013
My DVR ate the episode, I tried to look online for it and only found bits of it, the following is what I was able to see, if I can find the episode online tonight I'll come back and re-do this :(
An open letter to Perrico:
Dear Perrico, I think I speak for all of viewerville when I say that you need to go pound sand! If you love Natrasha then go be with her and leave poor Solita alone. She needs someone who is kind and loyal and you are neither. Is there something in the water that makes you and everyone else in this godforsaken story believe that marriage is the solution to all your problems? Do I need to remind you that the last person who someone married out of pity now has a brain tumor? Do you want your own brain tumor? Thought not. Please Perrico if you don't love Solita leave her alone, or else we will all get out our pointy sticks and hunt you like a dog.
Kisses and Hugs,
Eli

Synopsis: English translation of the teaser for 'Lo Que La Vida Me Robó' and: we could use some more recappers for this one.
If you'd like to recap email me: caray@mappamundi.com - thanks - blog mom.

This story takes place in the picturesque town of Aguazul. Montserrat lives there: she's a pretty girl, of high social status, who wants to have a "rose colored" life. She is constantly manipulated by her mother, Graciela Giacinti, for whom only social appearances are important and who will under no circumstances lose social status, even though her husband Lauro Mendoza, a retired admiral, has lost everything.
Montserrat has been converted into the solution to all her parents' socio-economic problems: her mother has selected her the ideal spouse, Sebastián de Icaza, son of one of the most influential familes in Aguazul. Nevertheless, Montserrat is not interested in marrying for her family's convenience and in fact is in love with José Luis, who runs a marina. Her parents ignore this romance, and this oppresses their daughter.
José Luis feels his relationship with Montserrat is going nowhere and feels the family Mendoza will never accept him.
On the other hand, Alejandro, a laborer on a nearby farm with hopes of bettering his station in life, knows the truth: that his father is Don Benjamin Almonte, a cruel, powerful and wealthy man who revealed this secret on his deathbed. Alejandra didn't receive this news happily. At the very same time life will bring him to meet Montserrat, for whom he immediately falls!
[Skipping a lot which seems to be spoilers]
The destiny of these three people will coincide and among them will be love, friendship, passion, contempt and rancor due to secrets, betrayals and hate provoked by the ambition and avarice that surrounds them.
Cast of characters:
Daniela Castro is Graciela Giacinti de Mendoza
Bad guy. Hypocrite, she appears a devoted woman devoted to her Catholicism but is actually a dark creature full of ambition and greed. She loves to be surrounded by luxury and is proud to be part of an important family. But she has a secret! Long ago she was the lover of Benjamín Almonte. Now, for money she is capable of selling her own daughter to his bastard son and heir.
Angelique Boyer is Montserrat Mendoza
Good guy. Noble, capable of sacrificing herself for her family. Fragile and innocent, she's been in a convent. To her own surprise, little by little she falls truly in love with her husband, which will be a problem when she falls for José Luis. All her problems will strengthen her character.
Sebastián Rulli is Alejandro Almonte
Good guy. Loyal and fair, a gentleman who treats people with respect. His mother, a humble farm worker, died when he was a lad. His life changes when his boss confesses to being his father and leaves him a pot of dough. He becomes a powerful man. He meets Montserrat and falls hopelessly in love with her.
Luis Roberto Guzmán is José Luis Álvarez
Good guy. From a poor background but honorable and a good worker. Capable of anything when it comes to love. Montserrat is the love of his life. When he finds out she is forced to marry a man she despises while he is in jail (unjustly) [spoilers]. He realizes, sadly, that the love Montserrat has for him has changed and that Alejandro, her husband, is a good man.
Sergio Sendel is Pedro Medina
Bad guy, of course. Arrogant and egotistical, of course. [Will he throw phones?] He married Nadia for political reasons: he needed a wife of perfect reputation and a good name when he ran for municipal president. He's dedicated to persecuting Alejandro.
Rogelio Guerra is Lauro Mendoza
Bad guy. Retired husband of Marina, he seems strong but deep down is weak. He and Graciela had two children: Montserrat and Dimitrio. His heart troubles, exacerbated by losing all his riches, have diminished him before his dominating wife.

PEAM #172-11/6/13: Gossip Girl Avon: Ultimas Semanas!!!
Recap By Pablo
Delia doesn't care about luuuurve!
This is the second time Delia set Rogelio and Patricia apart. The first time only Jesús noticed a silent cry on her face but now the whole IMSS hospital are witnesses of her pain and suffering. ''We need Ane and Dr Osorio in the reception area, Dr. Osorio please bring Ane Sthesia to the reception area''. Sorry Pato, you can keep swimming, but this pichón is going back to his cage... now with less marbles and no legs!!
Hi, I am Susana, I am a woman just like you, only older
Avon soy yo! And if you think I look good, you'll look way better! Guaranteed or your money back! Jéssica is living proof that Avon products enhance your appearance, unless you cry, then you will look like a raccoon.
This ''girls'' are such Pranksters
Pánfilo is probably crying with his one good eye after seeing Susana on the catwalk. This episode presented by the shapes ''sphere'' and ''cylinder''. ''Sphere'', ''cylinder''...
His loss. In the crowd, Ricardo shamelessly looks like nothing happened, after all the damage he did... bad monkey!
Diego Armando Manriquez, the male version of Tracy Rodríguez, who is now chasing Alma, in an effort to extend this TN until its breaking point, falls victim of the gossip girls, who in revenge, cut him some slack, literally, leaving him almost naked. Who would have thought these girls would have such a sense of humor? If they could only work half as hard as they have fun!!
Jesús is not the first male secretary, he shouldn't be so redundant, unless this has a hidden sexist meaning. Or, a self affirmation. I was a secretari-o, yes, I didn't make a mistake, it has an ''o'', ''o''. Juárever! Vivan las secretarias! Enough already!
Group hug! We miss the old grumpy man, because Jesús, when he scolds the Gossip Girls after the prank to that obnoxious Argentinian, sound fake. Alma comes to his rescue and all giggle and laugh! Secretly, they wish this nightmare was over! Aren't we all?

Corazon Indomable, #126, 11/05/13 Kidnapping #3 in 3...2...1... Oh, wait, what's this story about an Angel de la Muerte?
Beware: nothing that happens this episode makes any sense, from a legal perspective, or any other perspective you might think of.
Also, I appologize in advance for grammar mistakes or sentences that are not tied together, making a sense of this madness is harder than pulling teeth without anesthesia.
Dead to Viewerville
Tav has decided: his daughter will not grow up with a mother like Maricruz
Olivarez. HE says so, this is how it’s going to be.
Migreedy congratulates
him on this awesome decision and hopes that he now feels ashamed for whatever
feelings he might have had for MC in the past.
Dead to Viewerville
Tav apologizes (!!!) for
what he made Migreedy go through, Migreedy is just happy to be able to help his
bro get rid of that woman. How sweet, unconditional brotherly love - Blech!
After Migreedy leaves,
we see that MC is not as dead to Tav as Tav is to Viewerville. He remembers his
talk with JA, about how MC will use Alvaro the same way she used them both.
Dead to Viewerville
Tav thought MC really loved
him, in her own savage way, but that was not true. He can’t allow his daughter
to be with her, he’ll fight, no matter what it takes, he can’t be an
irresponsible and a coward. (Excuse me while I go throw up).

Mentir Para Vivir #22 Tue 11/5/13 Does Anyone Know Where We Can Find A Good Skank Around Here?
Oriana’s Boudoir: Lucina tells Oriana that Matilde put Cesar out. Lucina
wants to inform Paloma immediately, but Lucina stops her. They can tell Paloma in the morning and
besides, Cesar is staying at the Casa Bonita tonight. Ricky knocks on the door and humbly asks if
he’s interrupting them. His choice of sporting mustard pants and a purple shirt
clearly proves that he’s still depressed.
Lucina runs out and shoves Ricky
in the room. Oriana tells Ricky that
Matilde told Cesar to bounce after learning that he wants to be a missionary. Oriana thinks it’s better if she just
disappears. Ricky tells her that he
spoke to Paloma about the blackmail letter.
He confirmed that the letter threatened to reveal her past as a hooker. Ricky holds her and whispers that they will
get through this together, but she pulls away and says no. Her life is complicated. She’s wanted for smuggling in one country and
murder in another. Raquel doesn’t want
to involve him. She asks what they will
do if her husband is alive.

La Tempestad Cap #72. 11.5.13. We May Look Alike, We May Sound Alike, But Only One Of Us Got The Brains. Can You Guess Who?
We had a two episode combo tonight. Ep #103 and #104 were combined into one.
Say it with me please: Damn you, Uni. Now breathe in breathe out.
Cut scenes in this color.
On to the recap....
R-Laydee
Drop The BedSpread. Drop The BedSpread.
DamFab has been drugged, undressed, and sexually molested by Pester. He awakens only to find himself DamNaked in bed with an equally naked Pester. He's DamHorrified. Quickly jumping out of bed he wraps the bedspread over his DamFineBod. ***Some voices can be heard saying: Drop the bedspread. Drop the bedspread*** But alas the bedspread is not dropped. Rats. He demands to know what the hell happened. Pester tells him they had the night of passion he asked for. DamFab refuses to believe this. He'd never in a million years ask her for a night of passion. He recalls the previous nights events and feeling DamDizzy after dinner. He asks her what the hell she put in the wine. She denies spiking the wine. She insists their night of passion happened because they both wanted it.
Mexico City
Our Ex-PeggedLegged Ernesto is on the phone sans voice distortion device. He says: "It is Ernesto Contreras. It is no joke. You know my voice."
R-Laydee
DamHasHisPantsOn is now wearing pants. He must have put them on while we were in Mexico City. Damn you, Mejia. DamFab tells Pester he loathes her. He refuses to believe anything happened between them. She tells him if she wound up pregnant when they did the deed on the night of her coronation then she could very well wind up pregnant again. Foreshadowing? Please say it ain't so. He puts on his double shirt and leaves the room.
Mexico City
Ernesto asks whoever he is speaking with to set up an organization meeting. Everyone must be present for the surprise he'll give them.
R-Laydee
Pester looks over the dirty selfies she took and tells herself: "Oh Marina. Your dreams of love have just become a nightmare."

PEAM, Tuesday 11/5/13 (#171): Hitchcock. Kubrick. Truffaut. Kurosawa. Garcia?
- Valentina posts a new photo of "my family" to Bookface. Pretty much everyone in Monterrey is in it except for Vero. (And Daddy Elias. How soon they forget.) Vero sees the photo and has a cow and vows revenge on everyone. Said revenge will be exacted at the double-baptism on Sunday. She will crush ALL of the birds with one stone. (insert bird puns here) She promises to pay Jacinto oodles of money if he'll just do this one last job for her, and then he can disappear. I hope he realizes that she'll probably try to whack him because she hates paying for things.
- Vero says "[he/she/you] will pay" about a thousand times.
- Diego Armando is totally useless as a director. Chucho ends up directing the whole commercial himself and also assists with the editing. Meanwhile, Diego asks Alma to run away with him so they can laze around nekkid at the beach. Alma turns him down. He tells himself that Alma will pay.
- Diego Armando has offended each and every one of the secretarias. They are determined to make him pay. (Does anyone notice a trend here?)

La Tempestad, November 4, 2013. Capitulo 71.
This is actually capitulo 101 and 102. Unseen footage in red.
DamFab calls Mercedes to tell her that Mags is in town. Mercedes doesn't want Mags and Marina to meet until she gets there.
Estercita is visiting with Delfina and Fully. Fully wonders what Marina was doing at the square. Estercita says no one knows the real Marina. She ran into her today and she seemed like a different person.
DamFab takes Mags to his house. Mags wants to know what they are doing there. I thought you were going to introduce me to Marina? DamFab wanted to meet his son first and Mags finds out that Marina is expecting. Mags is shocked. She asks if he really loves Marina. Of course, with all my heart replies DamFab. Mags hopes that one day someone will love her the same way too. She thought she found someone, Valentin, but he told her to her face that he didn't love her. DamFab says not to worry. Things will turn out the way they are suppose to.
Fully reminds Estercita that as long as they are united, things will go their way. She says Hernan received another strange phone call and he thinks Fully's behind it.
DamFab asks Mags if she wants to hold the baby. Of course, she does.
Fully thinks the calls could be anybody, even her.
Bea thought bubbles that she has to get better on her own but that no one finds out. This is the only way she can save her daughter from the monster Hernan.
Speaking of the monster aka the crazed stalker, comes looking for Marina and finds out from Becky that she isn't there. She just came to give Bea therapy and went back to work. Hernan pretends to care about Bea's well-being. Becky says that the doctor was right. The movement in her lips was just a nerve twitching. Her lips haven't moved again. Hernan wants to see Bea for a bit. He tells Becky that he has a lot of affection for Bea. Becky leaves them alone and Hernan starts telling Bea that she is a pain for Marina.

Mentir Para Vivir #21 Mon 11/4/13 Break-up revisited
Manolo, the cop, drives
Jose Luis to a hotel; JL asks for Lucina’s number, she left some boxes behind
at the villa.
After all that beer
drinking, Manolo surely has Lucina on speed dial, right? He gives JL the phone
number.
Madhilde is nagging
Ruben about the possibility that Mariano convinced Cesar to become a
missionary. If their son continues with this madness, she plans to throw him
out of the house, see what a sacrificed life really means.
Lucina interrupts
Maddy, casually asking what this latest fight is all about. Ruben tells her about
Cesar’s plans, she doesn’t see what the big deal is. She’s going to her hotel –
Casa Bonita Hotel Boutique (don’t like the name); Ruben offers to join her.
On the phone with
Fidelia, Paloma apologizes for Maddy’s behavior. She’d like to see her, and
Fidelia shouldn’t worry, because Maddy has been warned to behave.

Corazon Indomable, Episode #125, Monday, November 4, 2013 “The Agony of REPEAT” aka “The Second Kidnapping of Lupita Narvaez Mendoza”
Recap by LatinaInMD
Phew, done. I cannot
believe I just survived a “repeat” viewing of this abysmal episode. And since I am a glutton for punishment,
along with the rest of Viewerville (at least those still subjecting themselves
to this torture), here I go again, with a “repeat” of the low points (sorry, no
such thing as a highlight here). (I have
the strange sensation that I am repeating the first title above from some
previous recap, but it was to be expected with all the repetition we get from
the monkey writers.)
We begin where we left off, with a “repeat” of Sickmona assuring
GreedyMig that Oblivio will do her will, because she “dominates” him; as she
confidently strides off, GreedyMig is left wondering what she is up to and now
decides it’s best if Oblivio refuses to do her bidding.
At Rancho El Abuelo (“REA”) all seems ready for the big wedding
party, where MC will do her best to blow what little money she has left for
someone who has never lifted a finger to help her. Alvaro, the priest, and MC stand around the
living room as if there’s no place to sit, with Lupita in MC’s arms, looking
awake but rather bored – the child must be channeling Viewerville’s mood. JackAss shows up and asks if he can hold
Lupita, grabbing her from MC’s arms before she can say a word.

PEAM #170- 11/4/13: I Feel Jealous Even Of The Dress You're Wearing...........
Recap by Pablo
This episode sponsored by EL POLLO LOCO (Martha's secret recipe) Cheap and healthy!
Buaaahhhh! Mi pichón operado del cerebro!!
Jesús in the hospital ✓
Chatita in the hospital ✓
Patricia in the hospital ✓
Pánfilo in the hospital ✓
Marcia in the Sanitarium ✓
Verónica in the hospital ✓
Bárbara in the hospital ✓
Don Sebas in the hospital ✓
Sansón skipped the hospital, he just died (poor boy, he couldn't take it anymore)
Hernán skipped the hospital, he died at home waiting for a wife that never came to help him... yes! she killed him! Sort of.
Osorio: Oh my God, I have been so busy writing a stupid underage romance subplot for my son, that I was forgetting Rogelio, send him to the hospital ASAP! And don't forget than in the 11 episodes left, we still have to squeeze in Valentina, Minerva and Domitila, all to the Hospital, ok?
Octavio: working on it! Do you want me to make the coffee maker explode? I could send half of Avon's staff at the same time!
Ury mistook Rogelio for a mop, mopped the jail floors with his hair and now poor Rog is suffering, with the two sides of his brain split apart. Joining them will take time and effort. Of course Patricia is ''desvastada'' while Alma and Fer try to hold her. Have you seen a grown up man cry? Cantú is also very sad. Losing a boss like Rogelio is unbearable...
The news has reached Gossip Radio Hall at Avon, and Jesús is telling only one person, to make sure the whole building knows in a few minutes. Well... to speed things up since he is a superhero, he also tells Xóchitl... And since we are in the ''cebollazos'' time, they praise each other's ability in the parenthood area, pretending it is not a big deal, but highlighting that becoming a parent is the most wonderful thing in the world. He knows because the first time he was robbed of that experience, but this time he is making up for it. Imagine feeling that FIVE TIMES!! Yes, Xóch will have FIVE BABIES!! Her sonogram was in CinemaScope!! Here they are, three girls and two boys. Their names will be Cempalzúchitl, Chinampina, Iztaccihuátl, Temalpopoca y Guadalupe.
Verónica in storms unexpectedly wanting to see her daughter
She calls Minerva a traitor, pushes her to the side and walks in confronting Chatita, who is not so sure today is one of her visitation days, but says no anyway.
-Bruja Escaldufa, go home! You will not see Valentina today!
- She is mine and I see her when I please! I have the receipt! Wait, oh no, that is for Fernandito. Anyway, what is this fleabag doing here? And this poor girl from a lower class? I have clearly forbidden that MY daughter be near her! Why isn't anybody doing what I demand in a house that is not mine? Please explain, you have five minutes!! I have some killings to do!! I mean, my shoes are killing me!
