Por Siempre Mi Amor #90- April 9, 2014- It's Official Gilberto and Borlas's Dry Spells Are Over. They Have Girlfriends!


 Just some points to discuss:

·      The orphanage officially opens up
·      Dan, Ileana, Gil and Agatha have a forced dinner.  Dan seems uncomfortable but Gi is grateful for the second chance. Agatha lets Gil know that Dan is not that into Ileana.  Agatha thinks that there is another reason why Dan broke up with Marianela and its not becaseu of Ileana.
·      Gilberto formally asks Agatha to be his boo.
·      An uncomfortable moment with Bruno talking to Gaby’s tummy and Ally walks up.
·      Dr. Crazy is at the house waiting fir Art.  Isa invites Dr. Crazy to the festivities at Tita’s.  What is wrong with her?? Let that witch doctor stay at home in her own house.
·      Fab congratulates Dr. Crazy for becoming a business partner with Art.  Sucia and Ferball are not too happy.
·      Dr. Crazy puts a bug in Art’s ear about Isa bring close to Ferball.  Boy, he is creepy.  Javier is pressing himself on Isa, she gets nervous drops and breaks a glass, and the perv kisses her.  Yuck!!!!!  Art walks in on the foolishness and wants to know what is going on?  He is not buying Isa’s answers and is ready to explode at any minute.
·      Marianela is happy that the kids have a home but she still misses Dan.  She is beating herself about Dan and Ileana.
·      Andrea doesn’t think that helping Daphne is a good idea.  She doesn’t trust Daphne but Mau does.  Obviously Mau doesn’t know Daphne.
·      Andrea is still uncomfortable at the resemblance of Javier to Fernando/Ferball.
·      Gil feels responsible for Dan and Marianela breaking up.  Cuca tells Gil to apologize to Marianela and get to know her.  Why doesn’t she open up her big mouth and tell Gil the real deal?
·      Borlas declares his love for Marianela.  She looked at him like- really?? Thought about it and decided to give it a try.
·      Osvy shares his motorcycle race story with the Angeles De La Tierra.
·      Tita is glad that Gaby and Bruno have remained friends even though they are exes.  Tita put Bruno to the test when she had Gaby and Bruno work together on the orphanage. 
·      Dr. Crazy is instigating trouble with Art about Javier and Isa’s good looks.  Art shares his feelings of dislike towards Javier with the witch doctor.
·      At shares with Bruno that he caught Isa and Javier in the kitchen.  He doesn’t trust Javier.

Coming attractions:
·      Does Art catch Isa with Javier thanks to the witch doctor??  Must see

De Que Te Quiero Te Quiero #23

De que pierde la dignidad, pierde la dignidad 
(Alt title: De que perdió la lucha, perdió la lucha)

It's gonna be wham, bam, thank you ma'am and haphazard. Sorry I just couldn't seem to take notes fast enough tonight. :-(

Alonso advises Diego to postpone the divorce for now. He also tells Diego it's important for her to get help. She needs therapy. And in true novela form he also cautions Diego not to do anything that might upset the delicate flower that is Diana. Dr arrives and says Diana can leave that afternoon.

Nat tells GVB how grateful she is to Diego. She wants to do something for him. GVB thinks a nice gift from her stall.

Alonso arranges for his friend Alvaro (another Al?) to be Diana's therapist. Grumps doesn't think Diana needs therapy. He thinks she needs Diego to be a better husband. He blames Diego and says none of this would have happened if he had been a good husband. Diego says they'll will do what they can for Diana to get better, but he's getting a divorce. He tells Grumps he's postponing the divorce but come hell or high water "De que me divorcio, me divorcio."

Tuesday 4/8/2014---- Por Siempre Mi Amor Recap #89---- I have no idea anymore!

RECAP BY CORAZONSALVAJE:

-Oso is in bed with a grindguard and hilarity ensues. Tita must really not like that snoring but who would LOL.
-Zenaida (you know, she looks like Marianela, are you sure she isn't Mari's momma?) and Balthazar are like a slightly saturated version of Tita and Oso and she lays her charm on while Balto (never too late for nicknames) lays it off. Someone's a knockin' at the door and they both go to answer it. (Balto takes his job too seriously.)
-BonBon is heading to his colorful car (has it always been green? I thought it was yellow when he got the newspaper about Fernando's "death") and his stalker/predator is on the move watching him and filming him. Coincidentally, FeVer s headed to see 'Za who is sitting at a table alone and he asks her out to lunch. She declines because she is going to go see Tita's Casa Hogar. He then says he will accompany her to it!
-Balto and 'Naida escort the inspector to see Tita and she talks with her.
-Tita is up in happy flames because the casa hogar has passed inspection and the grand opening is soon to come!
-Illeana and DanHairyChest are in the vecindad when Mari is talking with Agatha about heartbreak and she denies any and Borlas comes. Mari leaves with Borlas and after asking, Agatha lets him know what he did wrong and he looks as if he regrets being the sacrificial lamb.
-Isa is talking with Gaby about how happy she is for Tita and that her dream finally came true! Some talk later and Isa mentions going on a trip and that FeVer and Marcela are coming to catch FeVer in the act. Gabs says she doesn't trust Marcela one bit. (This plan can only go so well...)
-BonBon's being stalked some more.
-The inspector is with the gang at La Casa Hogar and Dena tells her it's named Casa Hogar Adalberto. Everyone is giddy with glee!
-Illeana and Daniel are in the car and she says if it's a casa hogar he can see the kids whenever he wants! Danny then agrees and disagrees. (I just have to say this; Illeana isn't bad for liking Daniel. The only real fault is that no one wanted to tell Bronce Mari the ugly truth or that Daniel wouldn't listen to Soni when she was clearing up stuff at the wedding. So in a way, it's Danny's fault for not listening and almost everyone's fault for not telling her. The truth hurts but only as much as a booboo unlike a lie or hidden truth which is like a scar on the chest. Illeana only liked Danny and spared her feelings until it was no longer necessary. At least she isn't like Daffne who flaunts her good around town like a horny scoutmaster!)
-Tita comissions Borlas to work at La Casa Hogar but he can't abandon studies!
-Cuca is talking with Gil about how he feels for Agatha (her nickname shall be 'Tha and just for fun, should Cuca be 'Ca?)
-The Narvaez/Guttierrez clan is having breakfast and are happy about Tita's casa hogar.
-Gil goes to see 'Tha and she says she isn't ready (Well get ready Cinderella 'cause Gil Charming's takin' you out tonight!)
-'Za and FeVer are walking and he lets her know he is going on a trip and she asks to come. He says she will be bored (I'm pretty sure she will be ANYTHING but bored if it's the trip I'm thinking of.) Bottomline, she isn't going.
-Danny, 'Tha, Gil and Ill(eana) are eating out and happy together.
-At the Casa Hogar grand opening, everyone is in ot their own thing and happy. However in this novela euphoria doesn't last long and FeVer and Isa pull telepathically pull each other aside to exchange the address of the trip (Venue) The gears in Art Dad's head turn as he sees those two ealk off and wonders what's up.
(End-of-Capitulo)
Avances- About FeVer and Isa, Arturo ponders and over the road of redemption Marcela wanders. (and FeVer's lips on Isa's head wander as well LOL)
Author's Notes- I apologize for it being the second half of the episode only but in a way it compensates for the other time I only had the first half and my witty remarks make up maybe?

Que pobres tan ricos #66, 08 April 2014... Fire at the Fonda!! at Chalma, MA and Lupe get hot and steamy too

Emi by pool asks MA if he would like to have wife and kids… MA says it would be really nice, but have to fix some issues of mine first.


At Fonda, Trofeo and Chilaquiles ask Frida what is there to eat. Leo is freaked out, says  customers are bottomless barrels… AS says fix them some tortillas… Frida and Leo convince AS to cook something. She goes to kitchen but not leaving her bottle behind.

Lupe asks Emi to go back to room. MA and Lupe are by poolside. They have another cute argument. He says she has not given him a chance to admire her looks(she is in swimsuit). MA wants to invite her to eat some tacos.

Back at fonda, AS is drinking her martini while cutting potatoes (for Spanish tortilla?) Frida keeps waiting on customers. Leo comes in, says customers want to eat something heavier like panzita. AS is wabbling… she throws stuff on pot… they will love this delicious dish! (LOL!) Mati says see? When you make up your mind, you actually can do something productive. AS says she could care less about her comments, like a fly flew by. Leo says can’t help AS because it is super-complicated. AS says use your head. If anyone poor can use it, you, who have traveled so much should too.

At Chalma room, Chuy tells Nepo about his ‘beatings’ when he was a wrestler. This is nothing, compared to that. Nepo is thankful to them for their hospitality. Nepo lets Chuy use the truck to go back home to get some things.

At Fonda, Leo is having trouble lighting the stove. The room is filling with gas. Then he lites a match… drops it, lites another one and the whole stove goes up in flames… he tries to blow (LOL!) he calls for his mami… AS shouts ‘ay santa maddona!!’ Mati is not much help either blowing from where she is sitting.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #22- Tue 4/8

De que lo está manipulando, lo está manipulando

Alonso encourages Irene to back away from the booze.  I assume she does, since next thing we know….

It's the next day.  Vicente is calling Karina to give her instructions to follow while he's out of the office, including bringing him a bunch of files to review.  He's saying it in this annoyingly patronizing tone and griping at Karina for not saying anything more than "yes, sir."  He hangs up before she even finishes telling him she'll get it done.  In the middle of carrying out his orders, she calls Diana to apologize and see if they can hook up when she goes by the house.  Diana tells her to bring some sleeping pills if she ever wants to be besties again.

The judge changed Carmen's charges and she can now get out on bail, once Diego pays it.

Karina calls Alonso to pretend she has insomnia and needs a prescription for sleeping pills.  He says he'll leave a prescription for her with his secretary.  Oh nooooooo!

Por Siempre Mi Amor #88 US 4/7/14 Yes, He Thinks He's Sexxxy

And yet again we have been subjected to Uni's scissors. This episode was a combination of episodes 126 and 127 from Mexico. I watched the first episode online, but did not watch the second, so this recap will contain deleted scenes from the first episode. Deleted scenes are in italics... again.

Leftovers:
Arturo picks up Isabel's phone and reads the text. Where? When? He asks her, "Who sent this text? What does it mean?"

New stuff:
Isabel lies that the text is from her client in Monterrey who is very, well, direct. She assures Arturo he has nothing to be jealous of since the client is old, chubby and has a wart on his nose. And yes, that description fits Javier. She hugs and kisses and whispers sweet nothings to Arturo. He forgets the text and they head upstairs. Meanwhile at the penthouse Javier gets no answer and gets mad. Ha. Ha. The joke's on you old chubby warty nose!

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #21- Mon 4/7

De que aguantó, aguantó

Diego gets a call from Alberto--he's got good news.

Irene shops for art supplies.

Eleazar hands the luggage tags and info over to Alberto.  Diego shows up and Alberto tells them that with this evidence, they can at least get Carmen out on bail.  Eleazar ribs Diego about being in luuuuurve with Natalia and Diego ribs Eleazar about being in luuuuuuurve with Carmen.

Oh, great.  Andres is back from sailing around the world.  Remember Andres?  The guy who put Rodrigo in a coma.  Remember Rodrigo?  The guy who's supposed to be Diego's twin, only we haven't seen him since Week 1?

Irene and Diego get to eat in peace, since Vicente and Diana are both being grumpy.  When Irene mentions Vicente threatening to "turn in" Diana, Diego goes upstairs to confront her.  He tells her that he saw the security videos, but she asks if he saw her face.  She turns on the waterworks about how humiliating it is for him to think so badly of her.  He tells her he remembers smelling her perfume and he's sure it was her who planted the drugs in Natalia's desk.  She counters that he's BEEN cheating on her since he met Natalia, or he would have told her who she was.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robó . Lunes . 4/7/14 #104



Chapter 104: Blatant Lies and Dangerous Truths

Pedro Medina's Office:   The not so lordly mayor reminded the good Father Anselmo he is the only person alive who knows of the suicide note left by Lord Joaquin. The good priest acknowledged this with some degree of discomfort and gave his apologies for having to depart, as he had important matters to attend to in his parish. As he was about to take his leave the unlordly mayor attempted to stop him by saying he needed to remain in Aguazul for clarification of an essential point. The good father said he would be leaving in the morning, then accepted that his presence would be requested again.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo #103: 4/4/14: As She Lay Dying...................



Ahoy Amiguis! Those of us left on the Patio are shaking our heads and wondering que the hell is goin' on here. We seem to be stuck in a never ending wave of sadness, but have faith. There is a new disturbance in the force, going by the name of Sandho, but, but we still have El Capitan and now Dimi, so never fear the Underdogs are still here! Angie is slowly going into that long goodnight, but is still trying her best to fix things before she departs. Let me start with an earworm shall I? I really love this song and it so fits everything that JL and Angie have been through. So relax and listen as you read this recap. I have a couple more inserted into the recap, so please take a listen to them too.  Long Live . Shall we begin?

Ale gets the news from Vic that Lic Cervera has gone to that big law office in the sky! Seems there was fire at his office and well, everything burned including the poor Lic. Ale is thrown for a loop.

Monse goes to visit Angie and runs into JL of course. Angie is still asleep and JL doesn't like to disturb her. Of course Monse has to rub salt into poor JL's wounds, that he is horrid, all that trumped up crap he did to Ale and oh, Angie doesn't know about you being drummed out of the Navy does she? Yeah, and she doesn't have to says JL. JL thinks maybe Monse is using Angie as an excuse to see him, oh, yeah, that's the ticket! She gets miffed by this and goes off.

Que Pobres Tan Ricos #64 The trip begins... and the wrestling event starts at all fronts. Carmelita vs AS and Leo, A-hole vs Mini and Isela, and the main event: a baker's dozen dance at Chalma.

A-hole wondering who that mystery man could be. Vilma reassures him they will find out.


MA tries to ‘explain’ to Nepo… a long story, kind of cumbuluted… Nepo says what I have is time. MA begins…

All begun when I returned to Mex, … without papers, … running from the ‘migra’ … I was the only one born in the USA… they told the ‘migra’ here that I was here. … then I had to find where to stay… Nepo offers help… MA passes… Nepo insists, seems he is offering MA a place to stay… Nepo then says we all could go to the Chalma tomorrow… you should put land between you and your problems… enjoy a vacation… MA smiles forcefully, seems it is settled…

Perla shows Chuy her swimsuit. He gets a bit miffed, says she would be more dressed with a lettuce leaf… you want to parade around Diego Armando with that on? You are a ‘damita’ and have to demand some respect… She keeps kidding around… Chuy says he has always taught Tizoc to respect women. She keeps mocking him. He gets more irritated and warns her you will not wear this, not even for Halloween (jk, he said ‘not even as a joke’).

A-hole is about to celebrate/toast to those two witches gone… Vilma reassures him that she will not let Mini keep anything of his… Door bells… Vilma yells for Oyuki to answer the door. A-hole says she is acting more and more like his mom in law.

Mini and Isela walk in with a guy in a suit… Mini warns him that ‘you pay for everything in this life’… The guy in suit announces to A-hole that Mini is suing him for spousal abuse.

Nepo and Trofeo show MA the spot he will sleep at (seems just a little step ahead of the cold attic floor, I thought Nepo’s house looked a little better. Is this his office at the fruteria?? MA is speechless at seeing his new president’s suite… his cell phone rings. As MA is on phone, Trofeo asks Nepo if it could be that MA is interested in ‘la prima’? Nepo wonders too. Nepo tells Trofeo that he is trying to get MA to trust him so MA will help him with ‘la prima’.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #20- Fri 4/4

De que tiene urticaria, tiene urticaria

Eleazar visits Carmen in solitary.  He lies that the kids are all fine and tells her she's safer there, away from The General, and that she needs to be careful with her.  He asks her about the bags and Carmen remembers that the tags were still on them and she saved them.

Diego visits the "security" department at Caprico and asks for an incident report and the security videos.  He's surprised to find Natalia in his office and they make googly eyes at each other while she puts him through to someone to return a call.  Outside, a grumpy Karina arrives…late…and gets stalled further by yet another call from Diana.  Grumps is pissed that Natalia is in the office and refuses to apologize to Natalia.  She tries not to provoke him and tells Diego not to fight with him on her account, but well, Grumps needs no provocation.  Diego gives Natalia work-related instructions that she probably both understands and will be able to carry out effectively.  Out at Karina's empty desk, Vicente does a little mental math and decides Karina + Diana = Trouble.  As Karina skids to a halt in front of her desk, Vicente summons her into his office.  She's still frantically scratching her neck as he asks her when, exactly, she touched the baggies, because he never saw her.  Of course, she can't give him a good answer.   "Diana's the one who told you to plant the drugs, right?"  Karina confesses they did it together, but it was Diana's idea.  Vicente is furious because they could have gotten the company in trouble.  He tells Karina she'd better not call Diana and warn her as he storms out of the office.

Por Siempre Mi Amor #87: 4/4/14

Cable was half-way behaving tonight! Woot!

I combined some conversations.

Isa tells Gaby about the "trato." Gaby is gobsmacked. Isa thinks this can buy them time and keep Ara from marrying a little longer. Gaby wonders how much time will it take and Isa tells her however long it takes until she supposedly falls in love and leaves her husband. 

Sonia can't believe that Cuca doesn't work at that job anymore. It took a lot of effort to find her. Javier thinks Cuca probably went back to her pueblo and won't return. Sonia is disappointed by his less than helpful attitude.

Mari is leaving school and Borlas has come by to visit. Mari's classmates and headmistress make fun of Borlas the naco. Ally and Uriel come to pick up Mari and they invite Borlas to dinner. Looks like it's Naco Stew for dinner tonight!

The orphanage is almost finished. Tita is thrilled.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo 102 - 4/3/14 - Stolen Kisses and Post-Wedding Conversations

Wedding Fiesta
 
Nadia and Montserrat discuss her pregnancy. Montserrat repeats the old wive's tale that Nadia is having a tough time with her pregnancy because she is carrying a girl child. Nadia repeats that she cannot have this baby.

The wedding reception for Esmeralda and Refugio is lovely. In a sweet touch of ironic whimsy, Angelica has seated her mother at Esme’s ‘special work friends’ table. Amalia has already left behind her upper class snobbery to embrace the good-hearted Esme, but now Angelica is putting her to the test by seating her with a group of pole dancers. Much laughter is heard on the Patio.

In another part of the garden, Adolfo-fito and Dimitrio sit by themselves at a table trading barbed comments. Dimitrio thinks that it is odd that Adolfo is here at the wedding with Virginia when she is Dimitrio’s ex and she got hurt. Adolfo points out that that is nary a woman at the wedding who has not been hurt by Dimitrio, starting with the bride.  Adolfo asks where is Josefina—Is she hidden from Dim’s Navy buddies because Dimitrio is embarrassed that he is married to a woman like her? Dimitrio responds that he wonders if Adolfo ever gets tired of…being Adolfo. With snarky jabs like those, I think we can safely say that Dim and Addled are no longer a happy couple. They look like frenemies to me. With Adolfo breaking bad and Dimitrio leaning good, well, those two are now coming from very different places. Never the twain shall meet.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #19- Thu 4/3

De que fue una trampa, fue una trampa

Diego thinks Grumps planted the drugs and happily announces that since Natalia quit yesterday, the drugs can't be hers.  Unfortunately, she didn't sign any paperwork, so Grumps isn't buying it.  Diego is furious that Grumps won't back off.

Karina gives Diana a non-update, since she's too scared to listen at the door.

Tadeo is back in his lair, pondering how when he looks at Irene, it's like no time has passed.  He's right.  Marisol del Olmo is babesome and barely aging.

Diego, in his car, is trying to get hold of Natalia, but she's ignoring his calls as she tries to find another job.  He gives up and tries the fonda, asking to speak to one of her brothers, but before Abdul can talk to him, Diego's cell battery dies.

Natalia gets arrested on the way to the job interview she JUST set up, damnit!  Diego arrives and tries to tell the cops she didn't do it, but they say they have to take her in because a report has been made.  Diego rushes back to his car to follow the cops.

The deleted scenes are in blue- online episodes 122 and 123.
 
Isa and Ara are having a verbal dispute about Javier and Ara and Javier getting married. What else is new? Isa thought bubbles to her meeting with Javier about selling her apartment, which ended in his word against hers, and he reminds Isa that Ara won't believe her especially with the Gaby stunt.
Ara moved up the wedding to stop Isa from interfering and to have another reason to whine. Isa begs her not to marry Javier.  She has endured 20 years of suffering as if in a spell under scum like Javier.
Daphne and Este discuss the wedding that wasn't. Este couldn't allow it. Daphne wants to know the truth, is he worried as a friend or does he still have feelings for her.

Javier is on the phone with Sucia about Fab.  He hopes that Dan doesn't remember meeting him at the costume party. Sucia wants to see Javier but he is having a bad day!!!! Woohoo!! He didn't get married.

Daphne is still bitching about Este being involved with Ara and her life. She cries her crocodile tears and tries to guilt trip Este.   She says that Este is dissing their relationship. Daphne tries to tell Este that Ara is marrying Javier for love and not to help her parents. Este doesn't believe that, and neither does Viewerville.  Daphne is jealous, why, because he DOESN'T love her.

Ohemcheese!It's a wedding, a super duper wedding! I'm glad to finally get an episode that's happy and peppy, we need the pep! I got off late from work and missed the first few minutes but here's what I did see:

Amalia and Angelic surprise Esmeralda with a wedding and an awful wedding gown, if someone tried to put me in that I'd be all like "naw homie, that's not happening" but that's just me, Esmeralda on the other hand LOVED the gown and was thrilled to have a last minute wedding, also something I would not be cool with, but mostly because I want an army of midgets at my wedding and that takes a lot of planning.

Qué Pobres, Weds 4/2/14 (#62): Vilma Plays Dress-Up in Mommy's Closet

Vilma will stay home with Ahole while Mini and Mom go out, allegedly for Mini's pre-birth counseling to prevent psychological birth trauma.

Saul visits MA at the market for rehash. He dIdn't find any more proof in the stuff Mini provided, but he has some people looking at Ahole's bank transfers to Adolfo.

MA says no, the papers for the house haven't shown up yet, and it's just as well because he'd be tempted to do a stupid thing and maybe that would be more trouble than he can handle right now. Saul teases MA for being in love. Nepo overhears and asks, who are you in love with? MA says he's in love with his job. He introduces Saul, who picks lint off of MA's shirt like a fussy spouse. "We're not that close," MA tells Nepo.

Mati asks how Emil did at his polo match (??) but it's not till next week. (I hope she's referring to the show-and-tell at school). He asks her about the wordy papers she swapped out with his drawings mixed together with Leo's. She reminds him not to tell anyone else about them, because those papers have magic powers. They can be good or bad depending on whose hands they fall into. They can even be dangerous. Certain things can change people and bring out their ugly side and turn love into hate. "Don't worry about them," she reassures Emil. "I put them somewhere no one will find them. They're like a treasure map!"

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #18- Wed 4/2

De que la odian, la odian!

Natalia, rather than just calling building security, decides to go check on Drunken Diego.  At least she took Abdul with her…but only out to the street to get a taxi.  Building security lets her in when she identifies herself…verbally!...as Diego's secretary.  You call that "security"?!  The same "security" guard lets himself get called away by a guy who says there's some dudes making graffitti on the side of the building so that Diana and Karina can sneak in and plant the coke.  Which I kinda hope turns out to be baby powder or artificial sweetener.

Apparently, Eleazar likes to grocery shop when he's drunk.  And take said groceries to Garcia Central Station.  He's like the Santa Claus of cereal.  Luz ends up coming over and gives him a hard time about being drunk in front of the kids.  He keeps talking about the grocery run as a "mission" his mom sent him on.  She makes him apologize for being drunk, but he accidentally lets out that Carmen's in solitary.

Arturo and Marcela talk on the couch and she says he's got a friend in her. After their talk is over, she thought bubbles that she is going to do what it takes to steal him back. Sonia has come to see 'Za and is re-assuring her about something when Daffne comes down and mentions Arturo's possible conviction. She shows her condolences.

Gonzalo is in jail thought bubbling about whether he is going to need to sing like a canary (more like jailbird) about FeVer and around comes the warden who says the less important prisoner in cell block D has a visitor. Gonzo asks if they're sure it isn't for him and warden says he is sure.
'Za and Isa are talking.
Gonzo is thought bubbling some more and in come anvils'r'us with a knife and wood. It looks like one of the jail thugs is whittling and some horrible things I can't make out occur (either Gonzo got stabbed or double wood up the wazoo) Next thing you know, Gonzalo's dead and covered in newspaper. (Now THAT'S an anvil!)
Dante is calling FeVer and letting him know the doggone dark deed requested is done and Gonzo's dumb, dim and dead as a doornail. FeVer lifts an imaginary brindis and they gloat over victory #EleventyBillionTwentyFive.
'Drea and Mau get the news Gonzo's dead and the bearer of bad news suspects it was planned. Mau concurs.

Que pobres tan ricos #61... If I had a penny for every time a leading lady or leading guy act stupidly after being on receiving end of stupid people's demeaning statements...

Repeat of Lupe turning down Nepo: not now, not tomorrow, not soon, not ever! (no ahorita, no despuesito, adelantito tampoco… nunca!) We are just not compatible. I won’t marry you.

Does that mean that you are breaking up with me, lupita?? (DUH!!!) Nepo claims the earlier proposal did not count because he did not have a ring at the time. She says it doesn’t matter. HE is depressed. She feels bad, says she and her whole family appreciate Nepo and his family. Nepo insists ‘if you care about me as I care about you, and you don’t really want to marry me, I understand… but… one condition…(gesturing tiny with his fingers) Nepo offers to run with the expenses of the trip. He will treat everyone to the trip and when they return, friends like always. (so he got his way, he is coming along for the trip, she leaves and he starts gesturing ‘Yes!!’ like he has a plan for the trip…)

Mati fixing MA up to go to work after he overslept. He asks Frida what time she got home. She nags that she is grown up already. MA seems to be irritated, but he claims he is just worried about her. Leo jumps up, whinning they won’t let him sleep. AS whines that this is just like the camote salesguy and tamale vendors waking her up with their scandal. Mati and MA and Frida all shout in chorus just like the street vendors just to annoy Leo and AS… (that was funny…)

Later Frida and Tizoc run into each other in the bathroom, he reminds her what happened last night, ‘amor eterno’ and all that… she seems to be depressed, more like wanting to forget.

Later on Tizoc runs into her again and asks her for another kiss… she is annoyed by the request, she claims it was fun last night, but she is not ready for compromise. HE is though. She says what happened last night should not have happened, and I am not a ho… He says he knows that, she is no ho, she is the ONLY one. Frida keeps backtracking… she only wants friendship. He says he gets it, she still considers him beneath her… She tries to say no that’s not it.

Later on, at work, Nepo and MA are talking about MA’s ideas for Nepo’s business… he only asked MA for a ‘proposal’. MA seems to have a complete business and marketing plan and this all goes over Nepo’s head. He just wants to get the business to go well. So now it is MA that is calling quits on the plan. (seems Nepo insisted in MA helping him with the Lupe issue, MA walks away protesting).

Perla talks to Tizoc, she wants to ‘defend him from Frida’… she leaves saying ‘leave it to me, I’ll fix it.’ He stays there worried…

MA continues counting the money and saying he will make a payment on what they owe the Menchacas… (wait, this is a repeat of the scene we saw last night)… Perla attacks Frida, grabs Frida by neck. Out come from different doors Tizoc and MA first, then the rest of the family. AS uses the opportunity of the chaos to steal some of the money from MA’s stack. Perla tells everyone Frida got involved with Tizoc… everyone has frozen faces… (this scene was totally repeated from the ending of last night).

At hospital seems A-hole is demanding he be released, the doctor says that is not a good idea, your friends Pepe and Tono could be impacted. Get used to the idea that you won’t be able to have intimacy with your wife for a good while. Vilma starts talking silly about transplant of those organs is no easy task. A-hole insists in leaving, Doctor hands him his release papers to sign.

AS questions Frida if she got involved with the ‘cumbanchero’… She nags at Frida that they all lost their dignity… MA notices the money in AS’ cleavage and takes it saying ‘seems the whole family lost some dignity! Right?’

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo, Capitulo 100. 04/01/14


Robledo informs Pedro that Ale will be released from prison. Pedro tries to show who has the bigger....avocados and starts yelling, but Robledo proves he has the bigger set. He can go over his head and call the Attorney General or even the President of the Republic. He reminds Pedro that he has a bigger pull with the government then little man Pedro.

Ale explains to his attorney that JL is taking the fall for the burning of the dirty money. The attorney thinks it's great but Ale is having a hard time swallowing his guilt. He doesn't like the fact that JL is being punished for something he did. The attorney reminds him to keep his mouth shut or else it would look like he was indeed involved in drug dealing. Ale knows and wants his attorney to personally represent JL in the criminal proceedings. I beg you to make sure that he doesn't end up in jail. Oh and don't tell him that I am footing the bill. Just charge him a small percentage to fool him. His attorney agrees, but can't assure him that JL won't spend anytime in the big house.

Rosy tells Padre that Ale is not upset with him for losing the letter. Montse comes in and brings good news. She spoke with Robledo and he believes Ale is innocent. He has seen a report where it details all the injustice that was committed against Ale. He also says that he will be opening up an investigation on Pedro. Padre wants to know if she told him about the letter that he lost. She says not to worry. It will be Maria who is brought in for questioning in regards to the letter. He is issuing an order now for her to present herself.

Ale also suspects that his cousin and her lawyer friend have been giving information to Pedro about him. His attorney agrees and thinks that Fabs is nothing but trouble. He also wants Ale's permission to investigate Sandro. Something just doesn't jive with him and his contacts in Miami can give him the scoop. Of course replies Ale.

Por Siempre Mi Amor # 83 US 3/31/14 Too Many Predators, Not Enough Prey.

Monday's episode was a combination of episodes 116 and 117 in Mexico. At this rate we should be caught up with and in sync with Mexico next Monday. I hope. As always, deleted scenes are in italics.

Leftovers:
Tita comforts Mari after the wedding incident that Mari herself caused. I don't get this. Mari attacked Ileana, Ileana was publicly humiliated, Dan was kicked out of the party and everyone sympathizes with Mari. Seems to me Mari's the one who acted like an idiot. Yes I know Mari's heart is broken, but that doesn't mean she should act like a 5-year old and everyone should feel sorry for her.

Qué Pobres, Lunes 3/31/14 (#60): His Windsong Stays on Her Mind

- Mini and Mom go to La Nopalera to inquire about MA. Lupita, Perla Ivette, and JT all deny knowing any Ruizpalacios, but Mini's keen sense of smell assures her that she's in the right place. She also thinks Lupita looks familiar, but dismisses the possibility that they've ever met. After she goes home, she calls MA and he swears up and down that he's in a very nice place that's nothing like la colonia. Mini doesn't believe him and tells Isela she'll be going back to La Nopalera tomorrow. Isela protests, remembering how the men on the street stared and whistled. "They were undressing me with their eyes!" Isela insists.

- Tato insinuates to Frida that, hypothetically, a really classy chick, maybe someone Frida would know, like maybe even the type of chick that Frida's brother MA was engaged to, could like him just the way he is and he wouldn't have to go marching in parades or handing blankets around to poor people just to impress her. Later it occurs to her that Tato must have been the person who revealed their location to Minerva.

Lo que la vida me robó, ep. 99, Mon., 3/31/14: What does a Municipal President do Anyway?

A municipal president recruits young talent

Pedro asks Adolfo if he wants to take his place as the next municipal president.  Oddly, Adolfo seems less than thrilled at the opportunity.

Meanwhile at the naval base... 
José Luis cleans out his locker.  Refugio, close to tears at the unfairness of his friend's sacrifice, chases away gawkers.  Dimitrio asks if there is anything they can do to help.  JL is comfortable with his decision and its consequences, including jail time.  He makes them promise not to tell anyone the true circumstances of his discharge.  He doesn't want Angélica to know.  He wants her to die in his arms with a smile on her face.  And he wants Montserrat to be happy with Alejandro and her son.

Refugio starts to 'pop tall' but JL cuts him off with a smile and a hug.  Dim extends his hand and ends up with a hug too.  JL can count on him, he says.

JL leaves with all his belongings in a cardboard box.

Weekend Discussion: Are Novelas Getting More Violent?



We've referenced this before, but with the recent incidents in Lo Que La Vida Me Robo, Mentir Para Vivir, and even the attempted rape in De Que Te Quiero Te Quiero we can't help but wonder whether novelas in general are going down a slippery slope that can't be tilted back.

In a previous discussion on this issue we seem to have come to the consensus that the rise of the narco stories came from the networks' desire to get more male viewers.  I don't know whether that's been working for them, but edgier has been the order of the day in all television and we need to ask ourselves whether there should be a limit.  In the US there is an irrational fear of sexual content in ad-supported television which until relatively recently hasn't affected the Spanish-language networks very much.  We're complaining here -- and justifiably -- when we become aware of hot love scenes being censored because they are censoring mostly scenes that show couples who actually love each other and actors who have the right chemistry to do scenes like that.  Why are television networks so afraid of the conservative moral watchdogs who -- if they were truly what they say they are -- aren't even watching these programs and theoretically shouldn't care about them?  These people don't control all the money in this country although they are trying hard.  We should not allow them to get a foothold into our private lives.

Why instead are they not censoring violence?  Violence is the real obscenity in modern society and the constant exposure to it takes away much of its shock value.  The occasional violent scene with bruises, bloodshed, etc., can be powerful; too many such and people will begin to shrug it off.  Is this some unconscious Darwinian element nobody has identified?

Villains are also becoming more perverse as we continue down this path. Porque el Amor Manda gave us a female villain who emotionally abused her own child (as in 5 years old in the opening of the story), Amor Bravio had a male villain who raped his own niece, even planning it so that it happened just as she became mayor de edad, and a sexual blackmailer forcing the heroine into her Tosca moment (as an opera fan I sometimes wish she would have taken the same action).   LQLVMR and PSMA are currently giving us villains of such extreme sociopathy they're making our flesh crawl.  Not an episode goes by on this blog that someone doesn't comment on that.

At the moment in a series like LQLVMR violence is the price tag we're paying for the otherwise good writing and the chemistry of the two leads.  I'm not ready to walk away from such a situation, but if Televisa reads this blog, this is to let them know that there is only so much violence we should be able to tolerate in the name of ratings.

Sound off, amigos.

Lo que la Vida me Robo #98, 3/28/14: Unholy alliance?



Adolfo is put in a teensy bit of a difficult position here...

A FEW HIGHLIGHTS, EXPANDED:

It turns out Ezequiel was bluffing with the whole Kill-Bitch-Maria-or-Else threat on Adolfo. The bullets in the gun were blanks. Maria is not amused. I think she'd be less amused if she actually died. But I digress. Ezequiel has this idea to take down Medina, so he needs Maria alive to witness against Medina when the time comes. Ez says that it's just a matter of time before that happens, as JL is already suspecting something. Ezequiel explains that he doesn't want to wait around for Medina to knock him off, he's going to get to Medina first! Adolfo is very contrite for pulling the trigger (which we know now had blanks) but Bitch Maria is not feeling forgiving. Ezequiel arranges for Bitch Maria to hide out with Esmeralda, who isn't too keen on hanging out with Maria. She assigns Maria maid duty for room and board. Maria feels this is "beneath" her. Esmeralda says well, leave then, and see how that works for you.

"Don't do it!" she begs him. Well, all things considered, maybe ...? She is such a pain in the neck, after all...

After the gun has proven itself to be full of blanks, Ezequiel, with a sadistic sense of humor, laughs at both Bitch Maria's and Adolfo's distress. He then tells them that they are in it with him—they both get to live, but they have to help him take down Pedro Medina! It's an offer neither are in a position to refuse.

Que pobres tan ricos #59 Mar 28 2014: Mini arrives at La Nopalera looking for MA... Nepo keeps hoping against hope, plans another proposal... A-hole wants to find dirt on Saul's past to force him to drop MA

MA and Saul at Chinese rest, MA very ansy about ‘how will we prove my innocence?’ Saul says ‘I wish I had the magic wand to solve this but I don’t.’ But he promises MA they will find a way out, just be patient. Won’t leave you alone.


The maid telling Mini that the RP do not live here… Isela rubs it on Mini, Mini whines back at her about not my fault MA lied to me. Isela suggests Mini ask MA directly where he lives. Mini responds ‘duh!! You are as dumb as blonde!’ I asked him a dozen times.

Lupe and MA, he kids around that he has as much of a money launderer as… then he changes the subject to her smile… someday I will solve my problems and will be able to leave here. (and get off your back)… he thanks her for listening, and leaves for work… Lupe stays there sort of sad, thinking (probably about the day he solves his problems and leaves)…

Tato receives a call from Mini… She gives him all kinds of excuses (birds on the wire, literally she said that!) about not contacting him before. She asks him to do her a favor. Tato says ‘well, maybe, maybe not, how about we discus it over coffee?’ He reminds her she called him ‘teto’ once (ouch!).. he brags about having a long career as a giggolo Mini suggests they meet at the café. He agrees and sends her a kiss.

Bambi arrives at his aunt’s house. He kisses her, she pulls his ears, not that happy to see him. Then he gives her a couple dozen excuses for not having come before. She asks him what he is here for. He says he has to hide here in her place for a while, not too long. She rants at him about remembering her only when he needs something. He tells her the story, the cops are after him. She says ‘I always knew it!’ She dies not want to be involved in his crimes… he has to beg her, kiss her hand many times… she says she will do it for his mother, not for him. You will not stay here lounging around while I am your maid. He swears he will do what she wants but as long as she won’t tell anyone he is here. He is still down on his knees… but finally she gives in.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #15- Fri 3/28

De que no renuncio, no renuncio

Diego asks what's it to Natalia if he gets divorced.  "It bugs me that you're screwing up another woman's life the way you screwed up mine."  He has no clue what she means, but she has a flashback and gets the hell out of there, insisting that she quits and she never wants to see him again.

Apparently, the sex trade is a new enterprise for The Shrimp, but he think he's going to like it.  Ugh!

Diana, misguided Diana, thinks she's always acted the same, so clearly the problem here is that Diego wants someone else.  Well, fine, if he wants a divorce, he's going to pay through the nose for it!

Skeevy guy in the blue shirt calls on 5 girls, including Brigitte, for callbacks.  He asks them to be there bright and early tomorrow, and in bathing suits.

Por Siempre Mi Amor #82 3/28/14

The Univision broadcast continues to be a freezing, pixelated mess for me. Today the audio got involved, too. A 45 minute call to cable didn't seem to help. Here's what I got. If I have time tomorrow, I'll try to watch it on Hulu and get more details.

Isa goes into distress on the operating table. Dr. Sicko "spaces out". Luckily, someone (the anesthesiologist?) with morals/ethics is present and saves Isa. Dr. Sicko answers Art's text as Isa and flubs it. Isa doesn't eat with clients! Isa has to do a little lie  juggling so she doesn't get caught. Art shows up to pick her up at the airport. "Oh, I took a different flight!" Gaby tells are there is no contract in Monterrey. "Oh, I just haven't closed it yet." She also has superhuman healing abilities. 

Art and Bruno wait for results of the investigation into the explosion.

Osvy has a bachelor party with sexy hula dancer. Tita's party is populated with sexy bomberos. Dafne spikes the punch. Univision only let us see the aftermath. The gals are hung over and the wedding is canceled (again), but never fear...Osvy and Tita make up and have a lovely civil ceremony.

Isa and Ara come to a sort of truce, but Dafne immediately starts filling Ara's head with poison. "Your mom (Eugenia) would have really been on board with Javier."  Dafne claims they are seeing another side of Isa and it's not pretty.

Dan confronts Sonia and won't shut up long enough to listen to her. He wants Sonia to help Mari, but she doesn't have to say anything about being her mom. He's willing to sacrifice his happiness. Sonia shrugs it off. "Fine, sacrifice." 

Mari goes Corazon Indomable on Illeana's azz. (At Tita's wedding no less....a scene that loses its power with that ridiculous thing on Tita's head.) Dan is banned from Tita's house.

Avances

  • Art seeks out Marcela after he gets bad news.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo 97, We Clarify Recent Happenings; and Maria Prepares To Meet Her Maker, March 27, 2014


Robo 97

If any of you viewers have the fortune to be joining us just now in the arc of this telenovela, you have my sympathies. The first 80 episodes of the show were, generally, very well written and superbly well acted. The protagonists were hot, the actors were terrific and the setting in Campeche, MX was appropriately populated with beautiful old homes and exotic locales.

THAT is what all the fuss is about.

Now, however, the good ship LQLVMR has entered the horse latitudes of telenovelas, wallowing in a breezeless extension where gnawed up and bloated plot-ends spin around our once-swift ship, impeding progress and generally stinking up the place.

For this reason, we will now spend some time clarifying the recent pertinent history of the characters we see tonight in order to put on us all on the same page. There are only a couple of important new events in tonight’s show. We will get to those after sorting out the ‘Recent Background To The Story’.

The Way Robo Rolls

Pedro Medina is the Shelob of spiders around whom the whole plot of Lo Que La Vida Me Robo now devolves. He is the Presidente Municipal (Mayor) of the city of Aguazul, a town that very closely resembles Campeche, Mexico. His web extends from the historic looking yellow City Hall and jail in the center of town out in vast interconnected and sticky concentric circles to the rich haciendas and empty lands on the outskirts of town.

MA tells her far, far away from the maddening crowd, well not that, but far, far away. Mini also told him about Ahole accusing MA of sending guys to shoot Ahole, click! MA can't beleive it! It's just one more thing to deal with.

Qué Pobres, Weds 3/26/14 (#57): In Which Alejo Is Taunted with Bland Soup

New stuff in RED:

Even though the family jewels were saved, Ahole will never have children. Unfortunately, however, he'll still recover to the point where he'll be able to have a full sex life. (Really? Because it was pathetic before.) The doctor says he'll have to stay in the hospital for two weeks.

When the doctor mistakes Vilma for Ahole's wife, Ahole protests: "As if I would have such bad taste!"

Mini and Isela ask Vilma who shot Ahole. Vilma stammers, says it was an accident, Ahole got mad and needed to defend his honor, and... she is interrupted by a call from Bambi. If we heard/saw any of this call, I must have missed it. Maybe she rejected it.

Ahole tells Mini that he needs to talk to her. However, they are constantly interrupted by Isela and Vilma and Ahole never gets to drop the verbal hammer on Mini.

Mini doesn't want to stay overnight at the hospital with Ahole, but Vilma eagerly volunteers. Ahole insults her and she begins to leave, but then he begs her not to leave him all alone. The next morning, arising from the floor where she slept by his bed, she announces triumphantly, "We slept together!"

MA tells Frida that their mother stole the 300,000 pesos the Menchacas were going to use to finish paying off the house. Frida is impactada. She also says something about the chicken that she had tried to rescue from the Menchacas and which pooped on AS's head, but I didn't catch all of it.

Por Siempre Mi Amor- #80-I Thought That I Saw a Ghost; and He Has a Friend's Who's Name is Gonzalo Carvajal


Happy Humpday!! Just a couple of bullets about tonight's episode.  Let's discuss:

·       Gonzalo lies that he stabbed GMeanie in self-defense
·      Lucha tells Isa that Dante is her son.  Dante is less than pleased
·      Gonzo makes his one phone call to Dante.
·      Isa and Art are looking for Efren, but to no avail.
·      Andrea will press charges on Gonzo and confronts Gonzo.
·      Gonzo lies to Andrea about being paid in advance for acts of revenge in Fer/Javier's name against Andrea.
·      Mau gives Este the news of GMeanie's death.
·      Andrea finds out Gonzalo Carvajal's full name and the lawyer deduces that Gonzalo is a criminal and one of the partners in the business associated with Este.  Since the business was an illegal front, and Este's boss is a kidnapper and a murderer, the charges will be dropped.
·      Este is free.
·      At GMeanie's funeral- Andrea recognizes Javier as Fernando.  
·      Dan wants to trick Mari, by thinking that he is dating Ileana.
·      Dante visits Gonzo in jail- Gonzo threatens to sing like a canary if Javier doesn't come through.
·      Andrea and Isa put their heads together and realize that Gonzo's revenge is a plan masterminded by Fernando. Andrea and Isa realize that they didn't identify Fern's body.
·      Este and Ara almost kiss but remember that they are not a couple.
·      Sucia is desperate to find Cuca.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robó, #96, 3-26-2014: Pedro keeps up the reign of terror, though now even his minions are starting to say ¡Ya Basta!

“The greatest happiness is to scatter your enemy and drive him before you, to see his cities reduced to ashes, to see those who love him shrouded in tears, and to gather to your bosom his wives and daughters.”
― pmedina@aamuncipal/presidente.campeche.mx#I LUV Genghis Khan




Oh, Pedro, Pedro.  Before I begin tonight's recap, I am going to pay a grudging homage to your tremendous and terrible ambition.  No doubt, you have studied many historical models of tyranny and abuse of power and have your list of personal favorites:

Vlad the Impaler, perhaps?
(You share same tendency to sadism and love of the stache)


Maybe Kaiser Wilhelm II?
(You share the need to overcompensate for physical deformity and also love of the stache)

Or Kim Jong-il?
(Share somewhat similar tastes in over-sized optical fashion)

I have to admit that things have been looking pretty good for you lately, and that in episode #96 you have sunk to new lows that must be very pleasing to you.  No doubt, you would be even more proud of yourself if you followed our forum here at Caray Caray! and knew that, through your loathsome actions, we on the Patio have managed to feel genuine pity tonight for a previously nearly universally despised female character on this show; HOWEVER...

De Que Te Quiero Te Quiero #13 3/26/14

I'm having all kinds of cable/connection issues tonight, so this is going to be kind of crappy. It's all out of order and combined.

  • Natalia can't believe Diego is married. She thinks he would have said something. She tries to ask Albogado about it, but a phone call from Diego interrupts them. Diego asks her to get some contracts from his office and bring them to him. Of course she sees the wedding picture. She's very upset and asks him to transfer her to another department. He balks at that. She tells him to either transfer her or she'll quit. He wonders if it bothers her that he's married. She claims it doesn't.
  • Diego confesses to Albogado that now that he's seen Nat again, his feelings for her have been reawakened. He's sure she feels the same way. He was just really upset by the gossip about her running off with that guy (what was his name again?) and he just married Diana out of spite, though he really did think he loved Diana at the time. Now she's just frivolous and immature. He's ashamed of her behavior with Nat. Albogado thinks Diego needs to talk to Diana and clear things up since that's what married folks do...unless of course Diego is thinking of leaving her.
