Cake.
Silvie is on the phone with Pato while he is with Sofia and she craves him; he denies her of him and (passes it all off as a call of work) which results in her throwing her phone and cursing Los Ripoll while Sofia states Silvana is a grand woman.
Lucas wants to see Dani at her house but he can't and she changes rendezvous; now she's gotta find a way to get out of the house. She asks a friend or sister (it wasn't clear) to lend her their chauffeur.
Greta is coddling Alexa and asks what kind of debt could lead her to such an act. Alexa comes clean and Greta then says she will help her pay the debt and send her packing but it's for the best. Alexa is forgiven.
Fausto and Sofi discuss the purloinment. Fau. is glad it was resolved so soon and somehow they end up talking about Chava; that he is the man Sofi is in love with (says Fausto) but Sofi denies it and says she is marrying Patricio.
'Li asks Paco what he was dreaming of.
More of Sofi and Fau's back and forth about Chava; he ships ChoFi.
Mari is cooking cluelessly >>FF for a sec then Play<< Chava and Lupe talk about work, 'Li and Sofi.
'Li and Paco bond and 'Li mentions not having a sister (Wouldn't you like to know?)
Sofi and Dani respectively are trying to sneak out; Dani however ends up hiding under a table.
Armie is watching over Nandito and he calls Irma who is off doing God knows what God knows where.
Alexa is reading a book about Estrellas del Cine while thinking about Armie.
Dani meets Luc. at Cuco's and they tenderly kiss in the middle of the colorful, fantasy restaurant.
Armie is chilling watching TV when Alexa crosses his mind.
More Luc/Dani fluff (I'm lovin' it!)
Renzi and Patricio stink up the joint they're together at with their smarmings and much more.
Chava and Sofi heavily breathe and give each other the real/correct love they need.

advertise Lupe’s Dance Academy. Aracely
shows up and tells Lupe that Lupe and Paco will be great together. Lupe tells Aracely that Aracely and Paco will be great together. Lupe will check up on Paco while Aracely
works on getting Chava completely exonerated of all charges and
suspicions.
Ripoll: Chava tells Matias that he’s in love with a
chick that is totally out of his league.
Later, down in the locker room, Matias opens his locker and shows Chava
his shrine to Silvana. Matias wrongly
believes that Chava is still pining for Aracely. He tells Chava that Aracely broke up with “the
northerner”. Chava tells him that
Aracely is no longer the object of his affection.
Sophia tells Silvana that she’s shocked that Greta gave her
blessing to the wedding. She’s even
withdrew the demand for Patrick to sign a pre-nup. Sensing that Sophia is not happy about it,
Silvana asks Sophia if she can handle continuing on with a sham wedding with
Patrick. Silvana knows that Sophia is in
love with Chava although Sophia hasn’t said it.
She encourages Sophia to find the man that she loves and express her
true feelings to him.

Way to go Orioles and Cards!!
Refritos:
Johnny with the receptionist..
Fernando admits to Nando he is dying of jealousy of his brother… Nando tells Fernando he has not smiled since he married DissaBella … no scientist needed to know you are not happy. Do you think you are doing any of us a favor to know our father is not happy and did not fight for the woman he loves?
Ana arguing with twins about both of them forgetting the Spanish notebooks… Luz tries to cover for them, zipped mouth. Ana suspects there is something they are hiding…
Lo Nuevo: \
Diego won’t tell Ana what he has planned…
Nando asks DissaBella how is the baby going. She says ‘I feel it’ (LIAR!!) .. Fanny arrives asking for Ximena. Doctor comes out, she had a crisis, had to sedate her, can’t keep her here for long. She will have to be transferred to the Psych unit. And for that he will need her mother’s authorization. She would be locked up in the Psych ward. Nando impactado.
At house, Bruno serves YoMama her usual martini and snacks… she gets the blues and tells him she feels very lonely… Bruno willing to listen and talk…
Fanny asks Fernando about Ana… Diego and Sebas/Alicia arrive to the clinic to support Nando.. DissaBella rolls her eyes in disgust. Nando very thankful, group hug with Frida and the kids, Fernando and Diego join in, DissaBella looks at them like ‘these are clowns’…
YoMama spills her upset feelings to Bruno about the way DissaBella treats her, tells Bruno how she grew up poor, she worked in everything, she used to run errands, took care of kids… she discovered eventually she could sing, she would sing in the public transport trucks singing with her guitar… (Now Bruno is the one that seems to be recalling old times)… Bruno tells her he too has had hard times, and Don Nico rescued him. yoMama notes they have much in common… she was rescued by her husband… he always respected her and is the best that happened in her life (besides my DAUGHTERS …[NOOOOO SAY IT ISNT SO!!!!])
Diego will drop Ana at her house.
Fernando tells Nando he is concerned Nando has already missed two days of school. I get it that you are in love… or I don’t get it. Ximena is always depressed or angry all the time, can’t find anything you two have in common. Nando keeps insisting love has no explanation… what do you Fanny have in common with a messenger… or you, Dad, with Ana who takes care of the kids… Fernando points that neither Ana or Leon are ‘ill’. Fanny says we don’t want you to sink. Ximena’s mom arrives. She has an attitude from the get go ‘how is my daughter?’ (Fernando looks at her like 'oh my!')

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #36 10/6/14 Greta May Not Want to Rent That Reception Hall After All
Hello Everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend! Lots of stuff happening in this episode. Let's get to it!
Old:
Fausto tells Sofia that everything about her - her smiles, her body language, her obvious happiness when she is around Chava - shows that she is deeply in love with him.
Alexa finds Alan in her room when she wakes up. Alan tells her that Manolo knows where he is.
Greta says she's changed her mind about the pre-nup. Pato doesn't have to sign it because Greta wants him to be part of the family! Not only that, she wants Sofia and Patricio to get married as soon as possible! Chava walks into the living room and hears the whole thing.

Chava gets the rug pulled out from under him.

La Malquerida, capitulo 31. 10/06/14. Esteban is sinking deeper into crazyville.
Skipping the old..........
Esteban gets onto Cris for allowing Acacia to seek out Ulises. He always finds a way for Acacia to go back to him. Cris tries to explain that Acacia went to seek the truth about what she saw at the event. Esteban tells her she has no idea what Acacia went through seeing Ulises and Nuria together. How humiliated she felt. Cris feels she and Acacia made the right decision. In regards to Ulises, I will stand by her side.
Acacia looks in the window and see Nuria telling Ulises it's time for bed. She's about to knock on the door, but Rubio stops her. He warns her she might not like what she encounters if she goes in. he offers to go instead and punch Ulises. She decides it's best to leave.
Luisa comes back happy from the event she and Arturo catered. She sees Rosa with a long face and asks if something happened to Manuel. Instead she gets a slap in the face. When she asks what's the slap for, Rosa says for lying. You were never in a relationship with Manuel. He said he would never be in a relationship with a servant.

La Gata #26 10/06/2014 Miss Kitty goes to the ball
Hi all-this will be quick and dirty but I think I'll be able to cover everything:
Esmeralda and her daddy (Fernando) who she still does not know is one half of her parental unit arrive at the ball and Kitty cat looks good! She manages to get the attention of several of the guests, all of them stunned by her beauty.
Shoe update:she is not wearing boots!
Anyhoo, among the guests are Lorenza and her children along with her husband-you remember him right? He is the one that gets off on stealing other peoples property and framing innocent people. We will get back to him later, oh and Monica is also there, poor girl, will her public humiliation never end? Will she learn to just say "no" to Pablo and run off to a place where it's okay to wear red shoes that look like crocs in public? Am I asking for too much? (Yes, yes I am, but I can hope,no?)
Mariano is the first to spot Esmeralda (aka: Miss Kitty) and he points her out to his mother, he has enough avocados to actually comment on how beautiful Esmeralda looks in front of his mother and enough grace to actually say that he is happy for her. Can you imagine Pablo having enough grace and character to say such a thing? Of course not because the only thing that matters to Pablo is well, Pablo. Whatever the case may be I'm now a Mariano fan.
Lorenza is not happy for Esmeralda and makes it her mission to tell every one at the gala that Esmeralda is gutter trash (her words, not mine!), like a snake she slithers around spreading her venom, she makes the mistake of telling the ambassadors wife (the ones throwing the party and those who invited Fernando and Esmeralda there) the same story, but this time Fernando catches her and tells her that she needs to stop spreading gossip, or else. She makes the mistake of asking what the "or else" is and she gets put in her place. In short Fernando tells her who he really is and that her family will be sorry for all the crap they have pulled. Lorenza calls his bluff and tells him she is not alone, she has a husband and two sons to protect her! Fernando tells her to call them over and maybe the would like to hear what he has to say, Lorenza finds Agustin and tells him that Fernando wants to speak to him, in the end it's the same conversation Fernando had with Lorenza, he promises to get revenge and to expose Agustin as a liar and a thief and an all around criminal, Agustin says he is not scared but it is revealed to us that his conversation with Fer upset him enough to almost give him a heart attack ( a well deserved one!)
While this is taking place Esmeralda is on the dance floor, as is Pablo along with Monica and when Esme tries to say hello to him he treats her rather harshly and tells her that they have never been friends. He is enough of a jerk that the French ambassador has to tell him to behave. Later Esme bumps into Virginia and the two bond with Virginia suggesting Esme take Pablo away so that they can talk and resolve their issues. Pablo arrives, is again a jerk to Esme and when it looks like there will be another physical fight Fernando arrives and takes Kitty away.
The next morning Lorenza wakes up and realizes that Agustin is nowhere to be found, he comes in looking like death warmed over and he explains that his worse fears have come to pass, Fernando has made a formal accusation against him and it's only a matter of time until their life comes crashing down around them. Lorenzas suggestion? Throw Kitty and Fer in jail for a good 20 years. Agustin says this wont work, Fernando is not the same trusting man he once was, Lorenza finally looks worried.
Felas tale:
Okay, Fela after seeing Rita runs away in fear, and can anyone blame her? Rita looks like the crypt keeper but worse. However after thinking about this for a bit I have a few points I'd like to make, follow me dear friends:

- At some point Rita had some sort of relationship with Fela, she has spoken of Fela as if she were a dear friend, however:
- Rita was somehow involved in harm being done to Fela, did someone pay her off to look the other way while an attempt on Felas life was made?
- Why did they try to kill Fela? Was it simply to get their hands on Fernandos money?
Whatever the case may be Rita helped or was part of a plot to kill a friend, and not just that but she took a small baby and used her as a pay check. May you burn in telenovela hell Rita.
That's all I have folks!

Capitulo
56: Life Lessons
Lascuráin
Mansion: Over breakfast Ana tried to make Nando understand that
it wasn't his responsibility to cure Ximena of her problems. She
emphasized that this would be up to Ximena's doctor. Fanny also told
him he couldn't cure her. Nando is under the youthful delusion that
love can cure anything, but even Manuela couldn't let him go on like
this. She explained that she had an aunt with a mental problem and
who ended badly. Ximena could end up the same way. Ana tried to
dispel that bad vibe, both she and Fanny telling Nando once again
that he can't handle this. Ximena has isolated herself in Fanny's
room and isn't eating and this isn't getting any better. She's also
stopped taking her pills. Ana then suggested they go upstairs to
convince her to take them, but Fanny had to leave for work. Ana
blessed her first, she left, and Ana turned to Nando and said they
should go upstairs.

TELEMUNDO Y MÁS: Reina de Corazones -- PAGE ONE: week of October 6, 2014
What a breathless week we've had, my dear Reinamaniacs! What's next?
First Izzy and then Lopez 2.0 tracked down one of the Giant Red Diamonds to the sticky-fingered EMT guy. Uh oh.
More Fodder for Crackpot/Crockpot/Colander/Sieve Theorists: Asunción changes her story when she talks to Estefanía -- She knew Estefi's father when she was just a teenager. (Oh ho!) It was later that she married Pedro (el payaso) Ortíz.
Victor leads Christian, The Worst Cop in Las Vegas (TWCILV), by the nose, convincing him that Navier is responsible for the death of the hapless Reina stand-in. Later TWCILV somehow stumbles on the fact that Navier is actually a Secret Agent Man.
Navier, with Boris of Belgium's help, is about to flee the country. At the eleventh hour, Greta spills the frijoles about Christian's murky past -- maybe they can use the secret to help Navier. Femme Fatale Connie Leiva lures TWCILV to her house where Navier is waiting to pounce.
Serious Reinamaniacs -- feel free to review previous recaps in the dropbox Jean has set up here.
So is it time for our show yet?

Weekend Discussion: Sob Stories and Snob Stories
The snobbery expressed in telenovelas reminds me of a lot of things I've witnessed in life. I've previously explained some of them, but the baby gift incident in Mi Corazon es Tuyo last night made me remember the following story:
My college buddy recently became a grandfather for the first time (I think he's freaking out about it). I remember when his older daughter was born his now-ex bought her a Laura Ashley nightgown in a thrift shop for $3. It looked absolutely brand new; I'm sure its previous owner barely wore it a handful of times before outgrowing it. She showed it to me and another woman and we commended her on her practicality (which in this case she had learned with their firstborn). She begged us not to tell her husband, who had an issue with thrift shopping. This is the same man who wouldn't have made it to the IBM boardroom for not having attended an Ivy League university.
For a while they drove leased cars (Lexus and Mercedes) until they couldn't afford to continue to do so. It was all downhill from there and he is still recovering. Much of that was her fault 20 years ago but I won't bore you with the details. Interestingly she came from a family with a lot of reverse snobbery.
Tell your tales, amigos, and you can change the names to protect the guilty.

Mi Corazon es Tuyo #55, Two Offers Made, Two Offers Accepted
We start where we left off yesterday with Bunny, (I like this nickname since we don’t know her name yet, thanks to whoever came up with it) making a motion to can poor Fernando. Who’s up for this motion? Vote? The other directors sit nervously playing with their pencils, (snicker, snicker), awkward! Ah, a name. Senora Linda Olalde. Fer says that he’s known her objections of him for a looong time. He knows that all the things that she dislikes in him as a CEO has also paid off handsomely for her in making her over $100 million, but she whines that it could have been $200 million by now. You are going down Fernando, and I will see to it. Not until you have proof of my failings, sweetheart, until then, I’m going home. Child's play! Fer closes the meeting and says adieu. Bunny Olalde snaps her pencil in frustration.

La Malquerida #30, 10/3/2014: Dueling Daddies and Mad Mamas
Mexico Episode #35
Read more »
The Old: Cris realizes
that Juliana is so excited about going to San Jacinto because that man (German’s
bio-dad) is there. At the ceremony reception, Uli tearfully tells Acacia that
if she leaves, this time he’s not coming after her.
The New:
Nuria is right there to grab Uli’s attention, and Esteban is
right there to keep stoking Acacia’s ire. Like an overzealous basketball coach,
he tells Acacia how well she’s done—demanding her respect and her proper place
with Uli. Acacia is already starting to have doubts. It is true after all, that
the Municipal President was the one who pressured them to get going and placed
Nuria with Uli. Este dismisses all of that. When a man loves a woman, he does
the impossible. Acacia still has doubts. “Do what you want, but don’t say later
that I didn’t warn you.” Acacia tells him he’s right, and they leave.
Carmen sends Nuria away and talks to Uli. She tells him to
wait till he’s calmed down to talk to Acacia, but for now, he needs to
concentrate on his event/work.
At the hospital, Cris and German talk. She updates him on
the Acacia-Uli problems. German knows how important this day was to the both of
them and asks if he can help. They talk about their art. German tells her about
the paintings he sold to the renovated restaurant—Cris will go see them. Cris
is planning on finally doing that exhibit of her photos. She asks German to
join her, but he knows it will just cause additional fights with Norberto. Norbie
can’t know that he’s still painting. Cris offers to speak to Norbie. German can’t
continue to hide such an important part of himself—his calling/vocation. Cris
loves the painting he did of Ale. They clam up when Norbie walks up.

La Gata #25 10/3/14- La Gala
Hmmm. Interesting. (At least to me) "Gala" has quite a few meanings...all of which seemed to fit for tonight's episode.
I had some questions...
Now on to the recap.
Esme doesn't think she could ever be unforgettable. She's just La Gata. Fernando explains there are street cats and salon cats. And now she will be a salon cat. Don't you want the Sra Martinez Negrete to lower herself for you and beg to be friends?

I had some questions...
- How long until Centavito and Fela get to live in the mansion? They deserve it.
- What the h*ll is Lowrenza's deal with Monica? She is obsessed with her marrying Pablo. It makes me want to puke.
- Why are we still being subjected to Rita's wrinkly face?
- Can Virginia look any more pitiful when Lowrenza is yelling at her? And am I the only one that thinks Lowrenza's crimes against her daughter are worse than her meddling with Pablo?
- WHAT KIND OF SHOES DID ESMERALDA HAVE ON AT THE GALA????
Now on to the recap.

Xlnt provided us with an Xlnt short recap!
Thanks so much! See below!
Here's a quick and dirty bullet point recap of the show:
Sofia visits Chava in jail. Aracely shows up and introduces herself as Chava's ex-novio. Sofia goes back to work with the realization that she has some competition.
Aracely offers to be Chava's lawyer. Chava agrees.
Irma tries to convince Armando to sell the house. In the midst of her harping the phone rings. Irma answers and quickly hangs-up when she realizes she is talking to a voice from her past. The phone rings again. The woman, Martina, warns Irma not to hang up or she'll come to the house. Irma agrees to meet Martina the next day.
Dani hears about the theft at Ripoll and thinks Lucas is the culprit.
Chava goes free from jail due to positive testimony from both Sofia and (surprisingly!) Silvana. Though he is now free, Chava remains under suspicion. Read more »

La Malquerida #29, 10/2/14: The Green Eyed Monster (Jealousy/Acacia) Strikes Again
Mexico Episode #34
Read more »
Get better, Mads! We
miss you! Ok folks, just bullet points tonight. Honestly, I don’t know how Mads
does it practically every day for multiple telenovelas.
Rosa, Julie and
Norbie:
-Julie and Norbie insult Rosa and call Luisa a liar. Julie
threatens to have Cris fire and throw Rosa and Luisa out (like that would ever
happen). Rosa leaves despondent, but she’s the only one who kept her dignity in
that conversation. Rubio is actually sympathetic and caring with her. He wants
to teach Manuel a lesson for playing with Luisa. Later, Rosa takes her anger
and despair out on the rugs. Luisa doesn’t know what awaits her when she gets
home!
-Despite Norbie telling her to shut up about the Rosa thing
(he wants Cris to keep paying the hospital bills), Julie tattles to Cris. Cris
basically warns Julie about insulting her peeps, but she will speak to Luisa.
Cris sees no problem with Manuel moving on from Acacia and dating Luisa.
-Cris gives Julie the info for the specialist in San
Jacinto. Julie’s so damn excited, Cris realizes this move to San Jacinto is all
about connecting with German’s bio-daddy. Dr. Andres, meanwhile, has learned
from Uli about Juliana’s son being injured and his operation. He gets a faraway
worried look.
Ale and German:
-Ale is snooping through Danilo’s file at the Association
and learns he really is growing cotton. She quickly hides the file when German
comes to get some papers to take to Norberto at the hospital. They canoodle a
bit, and German asks if she got his note and wants to wake up at his side every
day. Ale drops the Danilo file accidentally, German picks it up, and it’s obvious
Ale was trying to hide it. German gets agitated. He wants to know the truth of
what’s really between her and Danilo! Ale tells part of the truth—that she’s known
Danilo since she was 13; when she left San Jacinto she never saw him again; she
didn’t even know he was living in El Soto; and she wanted to learn more about what
he was doing here. German apologizes for his outburst of jealousy. It’s just
that Danilo seems to know so much about her, while at times he feels that they’re
soul-mates (almas gemelas), and other times like he knows practically nothing
about her. Ale says what’s important is
what they feel for each other- love. Danilo only brings bad memories for her. German,
on the other hand, is the love of her life. But it’s really hard for her to open
up and tell him everything. German asks her to start by telling him why she
took off the ring she always wears. When Ale can’t even do that, he speaks
about trust being fundamental in a relationship. If Ale can’t come to trust him
enough to open up to him, then their relationship will eventually fail.

La Gata #24- Thu 10/2 - La Audiencia
If you missed it yesterday, the episode starts with a replay of most of the fight…and Pablo and Esme smearing her lipstick all over each other's faces. Silencioso pries them apart and decks Pablo. Some cops or security people finally show up to drag Esme and Pablo apart. In all the screaming, once again, no one gets around to saying anything that might resolve this.
Lorenza gets the news from Monica and explains away Pablo's reaction with "Well, he's a man." She blames it all on Esme and begs Monica not to leave Pablo. Monica wants Pablo to be happy, and Lorenza says that Monica is his happiness. I don't think Lorenza understands the meaning of that word.
Back at the house, Esme cries and is comforted by Silencioso, who says those meanies will pay. The maid brings them tea or coffee and gives them a suspicious look.

(Didn’t catch a name, so that’s what you get, old man)
As much as I hate to have anything in common with Isabruja,
this is going to be fast, loose, and dirty:
Where we left off, Ana overhears Isabruja’s rants and
marches in to assure the patrones that she will start sleeping in her own house
straightaway.
Poor little Mau is having a hard time understanding that mama
isn’t coming back.
Bruja is happy Ana is moving out. Fer not so much. Ana tries to convince herself it’s better
this way.

La Malquerida #28, 10/1/2014: Acacia’s Getting Heat on All Sides, Can She Take the Pressure?
Mexico Episode #33
Hello All- You’ve got me again. Mads is still sick. Gloria
is still in the mountains. I won’t go into a lot of detail tonight, except for
a few scenes.
Acacia and the Rock
Esteban tells Acacia that Ulises is not the man for her and
she should dump him, forever. He believes Ulises is just taking advantage of
her and her naiveté. Acacia stands her ground- she and Uli love each other and
know what they want. She acknowledges her youth, immaturity, and jealous
streak, but points out what a good man Ulises is. She gets offended that Este
thinks she’s gullible and stupid enough to be fooled by a bad man. She then
points out her own error in misjudging Esteban. She asks that Esteban take the
time to get to know Uli, just as she finally took the time to get to know
Esteban and realized that he’s a good person. A: I know you’re going to try,
because you love me. E: With all my soul, Acacia. (Creepy!) Acacia says that if
Uli does turn out to be a bad person, she’s the one who has to find out for
herself.
After Acacia clarifies to Cris that she didn’t tell Elena
about her future plans/hopes with Uli because she doesn’t feel close to Cris,
they cry and hug it out. Acacia admits that she did miss having her mom there
every day, but it was her choice to live with the Abuelos because she couldn’t
stand Este. And Cris was there every weekend, every holiday, every important occasion,
and spoke to her on the phone every day. Este comes in, and Cris takes him to
task for his ugly attitude towards Uli. She points out that the bad person he’s
describing would not have risked his life running into a burning building to
save Acacia and Manuel. Acacia is not stupid. She has been surrounded by
good men- gentlemen, her whole life, and knows how to tell the good from the
bad. Plus, Acacia is so impulsive that the harder Este pushes her away from
Uli, the more likely it is that she’ll run off with him. That’s not what Este
wanted to hear. He changes the subject by kissing Cris passionately.
Showing Love, Not
Making Love
Ale and German have apparently been cuddled up in bed all
afternoon, and she’s visibly calmer. She tells him how loved and protected she
feels. They begin to kiss, gently at first, and then with more intensity.
German sits up and looks at Ale with a question in his eyes. She smiles and
nods slightly, and they commence the intense kissing. German pauses again to
remove his long sleeved shirt and to give female Viewerville a gift. Ale is not
immune. She looks at him with pure desire in her eyes, and things begin to get
hot and heavy. German finally lowers himself completely onto Ale, which obviously
dregs up bad memories for Ale. She suddenly pushes him away and declares that
it’s best that they break up! There is a “colorful” term for the condition
German must have in that moment, but we, and he, won’t go there. Instead,
German points out how much he loves Ale and he just wants to demonstrate it,
and he knows/feels in his heart that she loves him too.

La Gata #23- Wed 10/1 - La Transformacion
Hell no we couldn't just put up a discussion post!
We jump RIGHT in to a smooth-haired Esme being adored by Fela, but they're not letting us see her face.
Back at the house, Silencioso tells Esme that from now on she'll have tutors to prepare her for taking her secondary school exams. She won't have to go to night classes anymore. With her gorgeous clean face and her bright red lipstick. Also, Silencioso wants to teach her some stuff too. She almost looks like she's wearing her same black dress and boots…but are these pricier versions of the originals?
Esme rides past the Negrete house in the back of the car, setting Mariano's mixed feelings aflame. He assumes she's Silencioso's new amante (lover). He starts to have thoughts that, hey, since Pablo's out of the picture maybe he could…. But no! In an extensive thought bubble, Mariano puts Esme up on a pedestal as much as Pablo ever did (you know, back in the day, before all the lies) thinking that she's a one-man woman and she'll probably never love anyone other than Pablo. I get the impression that only makes him admire her more.

(Theme Song)
Just as Chava and Sofi almost kiss and form one (I call them chOfi) Tavares comes in and so does Araceli.
Pato is leaving his pseudo-sympathetic charm all over Greta like a snail would trail slime on a driveway and unfortunately she is putty in his hands
Tavares excuses himself (too late man) as Chava and 'Li (Araceli's nickname) catch up. He introduced Sofi to her.
Fauntleroy waltzes into Alexa's room and onto her bed; he's so nasty I'm surprised he doesn't leave a streak. He is just babbling and I'm hardly paying attention but he says something about his suegra whom I'm guessing would be Greta (I apologize but Alan is detrimental to my health and forget CS'09, why don't any of you remember Alan as the creepy jerk Jorge who was Marianela and eventually Kristel's beau in Llena de Amor?)
Pato is detrimental to my health as well but eh; he is a charmer with those pechugas of his and that one photo of him in nothing but green converse.
Sofi is pleased to make 'Li's acquaintance.
Luc. is looking for Silvie and inadvertently runs into Dani.
Fausto introduces Pato to Alan (LOL coincidence, I THINK NOT!) and I begin to feel a pit in my stomach. Al asks about the wedding and invites Pato on a double date but Pato rebuffs it since he knows he will be the one stuck with the bill (I like that Pato sees right through him; now if someone could see right through Pato without being manipulated whatsoever GRETA.)
Luc. and Dani flirt on work hours.
IrkMe and Armie are with Renzi, d-e-a-l-i-n-g (read that in the juvenile girly and boy sittin' in a tree song tone; bottom line, Armie isn't buyin' what Renzi's sellin'.)
You know, I had a feeling Greta would end up blackmailed but when she spews her minor venom all over Fausto, that's when I get mad.
Chava and 'Li; Chava knows Pato's behind this.
IrkMe +-_- and Armie =3 argue on the street.
Dani. and Luc. discuss work and Dani said Silvie is chida (she comes off as the person who would have a human skull for a decoration so yeah.) Lucas and Dani kiss as I say aw young love.
Renzi and IrkMe +-__-plot and he makes her pledge she will convince Armie =3 with whatever it takes.
Greta caresses a picture of Sofia and we flashback to see Baby Sofi and the skinny Greta received on how to raise her.
Luc. and 'Sol (Marisol) lament over Chava's situation and the worst part is that whoever stuffed Chava's bag with the money is among them.
Lupe runs into 'Li on the street and they catch up.
Sofi. has Luc. on the case and if he finds about anything, he'll let her know.
Tavares is the observant little bugger and says he noticed a tension between Sofi. and 'Li but Chava reassures him there was nothing.
Pato is arguing with Sofi. and says he doesn't like a thing about Chava.
Armie =3 thinks it's weird that Renzi is buying all those businesses and if he has so much money, why not donate it to the poor kids of the world (Armie =3 is quite the galan <3)

RIPOLL: Now in police custody, Chava tells his sobbing sister not to be afraid and asks Matias to take care of her and his mother. After the cruiser leaves the curb, Marisol collapses at the gate. Both Lucas and Matias kneel to comfort her, but Matias shoves Lucas away and continues to comfort her by himself.

La Malquerida #27, 9/30/14: Alejandra Meets Her Demon Danilo, Face to Face!
Mexico Episode #32
Read more »
Madelaine is sick with the flu, and Gloria is frolicking in
the mountains, so I’m filling in tonight. And boy, was this episode a doozy! In
an effort to capture tonight’s important confrontations, I made this recap
detailed. Let’s get on with it!
The Old:
In the church, Perla and Alejandra argue loudly about the Danilo
situation. Perla refuses to come with Ale to denounce Dan, and blames Ale for
everything that went wrong after she took off with the merchandise—Danilo getting
beat down by his bosses, left lame, and without his business. She tells Ale
that Danilo is coming after her to kill her, and she better run.
The New:
Esteban is drinking in his office and breathing heavy after
hearing that Acacia and Ulises have been having the marriage talk. His perv
confidant Rubio comes in and Este pounds his fist on the desk and says Acacia
can’t be Ulises’, or ANY man’s! Rubio tries to talk sense into Este and tells
him that he and Acacia can’t live under the same roof. Este says all he needs
to do is keep control of himself. He says this while grabbing Rubio’s lapels and
breathing heavy. Yeah…how’s that “getting in control of yourself” plan working
out, Este? Rubio leaves.
The real Church ladies have gotten tired of the two
inappropriately dressed women screeching at each other, and make a beeline
towards the back of the church for the Padre. Perla says we do what we have to
do, to survive. Ale’s not having it. Perla can go on being exploited if she
wants, but Ale has had the taste of a decent life, and she sure as heck won’t
let Danilo steal it from her! The Padre interrupts before things become heated
again. Perla covers up her boobs, and Ale stands up, points to Perla, and yells
that Perla is the woman of the man who exploited her! Perla hustles out of the

Mi Corazon Es Tuyo #52, Tues 09/30/2014 Finally Bruno and Manuela hook up, Jen leaves Nico breathless... Isa wins one battle, or does she?...
Refritos:
Johny hugs the bald guy
Leon meets Reeky… Reeky notices that Leon is not quite just history for Fanny.
Nando and Ximena, his blindly kissing her nose… she keeps on smiling…
Jenn and Nico… Ay my Sciatica!!! / no worries, I will go make you a home remedy in a jiffy!
Isa spills the coffee on Ana intentionally…
I: sorry, I am so clumsy… (Ana growls) … you owed me. Know? It was an accident, I am so distracted…
A: You think you ruined my night?... I can change clothes in 2 minutes, but you can’t change your bitterness…
Lo Nuevo:
Jen is delighted with how ‘lively’ (vivaz) Nico turned out to be…
Ximena and Nando… he makes some comment of going 300K km per second… she says ‘don’t feel bad… these things happen. … it was great.’ ‘you are such a bad liar… but I love you so much…’ ‘ Nando, you are my love… my love.’
Nico throws the towel on Jenn (he has her lip kiss prints all over his face’… she will bring him some cake she has around. (he comments ‘this woman is a beast’ and she replies she heard him LOL!)
Isa goes to fetch Fernando at library… She reminds Fernando Ana must be having a great time with his brother… they make a great couple, don’t you think? They are both liberal, extroverted… i can imagine them backpacking semi-nude in the middle of the jungle… ‘ She suggests they go to bedroom… sorry Isa, even if you try to massage and give him a preview, he is just not that into you… he comes up with the excuse that his son Sebas is out on the street. Isa asks Fer if it is time to take the painting of him and Fanny off the wall. He just replies ‘No.’ (take that, bruja!!)
The guy who Leon got off Fanny when they met is the DJ at some club. There is Sebas in the middle of teenage girls who are clearly older than him. Poor guy is about to be stepped on… but he is real happy to be there.
Erasmo the driver calls Fernando’s cell. Fernando is very impactado to hear his son escaped.
At scalpore, Bruno keeps admiring Manuela’s cleavage. She pulls his chin up so his eyes look at her face… LOL! He mentions the devil arriving and then blows on her chest… she asks him how long has she been running after his jacket tails… he doesn’t know. She says she is tired. He begs her not to go. ‘Today you will understand one of my mysteries’.

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #31 9/29/14 Go to Jail. Go Directly to Jail. Do Not Pass Go or Collect $200.
Hola, Everyone! There was great discussion over the weekend about why Sofia (Beautiful) would be attracted to Chava (Beast). So I did a little digging and I found this article that gives several reasons why Visually Opposites attract:
Whatever the reasons, Uggo and Hottie couplings like Chava and Sofia happen all the time in real life. Cases in point:
 |
Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony
|
 |
Pauline Porizkova and Rick Ocasek
|
 |
Rod Stewart and Rachel Hunter
|
On to the recap!
Old:
In her hotel room in Brasil, Sofia considers calling Chava but decides against it.
Dani calls to talk to Sofia.
Pato and Silvana get busy in bed.
Chava and Sofia think about each other through the magical windows of their minds.

La Gata #21- Mon 9/29 - La Hija
Before Fernando can launch into his sales pitch, Jarocha tells him Gata's in desperate need of his help. Gata apologizes for having caused a scene, but Fernando thinks she needs understanding and affection. Jarocha decides to leave them alone.
Garabato hits on some other girl and gets caught by Ines. She, of course, takes it out on the other girl.
Fernando sees Gata's inner light…she gives his life meaning. He tells her about the pain in his life since he lost his wife and daughter. He figures guys are always into her for sexual reasons (he doesn't say it like that, though) but he's interested in being her daddy, minus the sugar. He wants to give her and the kids everything they need, so she can show Pablo that she doesn't need him. He wants to humiliate the Negretes and raise Esme up like a queen. She keeps resisting. Fernando tells her that Agustin took everything from him and his revenge will be her revenge.

Bela Gets The Blues (As Her Due)
Let us JIP (J=join in progress) as Don Nicolas’s bride to be,
La Jennifer, makes a “naughty night” date with Nic. (E.D. PSA alert!) Nerdando
comes downstairs with a smile the size of the DF anticipating his own
naughty night date with Ximena. The two
end up comparing their respective upcoming night of nookie and Nerdando admits
he’s still a virgin. Don Nico says that
at his age with a woman like Jennifer he might as well still be a virgin
himself. (Sorry, but a serious young man discussing losing his virginity
with his parental units or even his grand parental units is more than I can
stomach. –N-n-nb-b-t-t-t-t!!! Oh well, the whole storyline here is more
than I can stomach. And my beanie is out
for repairs. Let’s continue…..)
Even weirder discussion ensues as Nico tells
his 17 year old grandson that he’s got an appointment that morning to see about
adopting a baby for Jens. (Guess the old
guy’s so rich he figures he can buy his way through anything. Anyway, what is some 70- something old fart
doing bringing a baby home like a kitten or puppy from the county pound?? He’d probably be pushing up daisies and
Mexican heather long before the kid gets out of junior high, even. Why does he think that should be fair for a
child?? Crap! Why doesn’t the old toe-sucker get his rocks
off once in a while with his trophy wife, courtesy of the little blue pill, and
count his blessings such as they are?)

Weekend Discussion: The Galans of Opera
I'm always comparing telenovelas and opera and they have more in common every day. And there are tons of great videos online to prove it.
It is no longer necessary just to be able to sing well; opera stars are now expected to be good actors and also to be hot. Today I will present a line-up of tenors. If there is adequate response, I'll do a sequel featuring baritones and basses.

Shall we begin.
Este and Acacia are off to Cuidad Real to take care of bidnez with that Pieralta guy. When they meet with him he immediately goes off on Acacia, what a jerk, calling her inexperienced and how could Este leave this child in charge of so important a bidnez deal. Este has gives it back to this guy , he tells this Peirata guy that he is talking to the daughter of the duena of the Hacienda and not just a nobody. Acacia wants to go, but Este has her stay. This Peiralta guy is a true putz. His cell phone keeps going off, and he is constantly walking out of this meeting to take the calls. We just know who keeps burning up his phone, it's Norbie of course. Well, Norbie too is unable to fulfill this order, cause he doesn't have that amount of cotton, nor is he able to get it yet. Peiralta is giving Este grief that this cotton is destined for The United States and they are holding his feet to the fire, and he'll have to pay a huge fine. Which will get passed on to Este of course. Este will do what he can.
Stop the hugging of Este, you are driving him mad!

Mi corazon es tuyo, #49 - Thursday, 09/25/2014 Never let a fool kiss you, or a kiss fool you
(Joey Adams, American comedian)
I’m back home this week for my brother’s wedding, so this recap has been written in bits and pieces whenever I had the chance to run away from my noisy (although lovable) family. I hope I didn’t forget any important details. If I have, please add whatever you think is significant in the comments.
Off we go...
Do you still have to write thank you cards for the wedding presents if you get a divorce three days after the wedding? Do you even have the time to do that?
Fernando is telling Bruno that he is still in love with Ana, but it’s not like he’s harboring any type of hope of a future reunion. He is married and she is involved with Diego, who is his brother AND is truly in love with her. She is unlike any other women that Diego has ever been with, so Fer truly believes that this time his feelings are for real - so he can’t get in the middle of that and hurt his brother. Besides, Diego is handsome and a good guy, he is the best candidate to win Ana’s heart.
Bruno doesn’t believe that all hope is lost. With all due respect, he doesn’t understand why Fer had to marry Isabella; he could have taken care of the child without making her his wife. (Viewerville is applauding Bruno for calling it as it is, even if he is trying to be very tactful about it).
Yes, but Fer wants his new baby to feel like it’s part of a real family.
OK, then, Bruno insists, but there is always divorce… There are plenty of kids out there with divorced parents that are OK. Because as far as he’s concerned, this marriage was un grave error. (Viewerville cheers, Bruno might be getting a honorary member card). Fernando goes hmmm… Could he have a light bulb moment?
After they finish their chat about Ana, Fer invites his only friend, el majordomo, to join him to watch Johnny's stand-up. Isa is not home yet, so... boys night out?
But Isabella IS at home and she hears the first part of their conversation and runs to her mother’s bedroom, kicking and screaming after. She knocks on the door and is very loud, Diego sees her but doesn’t stick around to figure out what happened. He goes downstairs where Ana is waiting for him so they can go to the bar to watch Johnny's show. Their banter downstairs about taking the moto is really cute, Ana is at least warming up to him.
Upstairs Isabella is still crying like a little child over the fact that Fernando doesn’t love her because he still loves Ana. Yola doesn’t want to comfort her daughter, she just points out the fact that having all these loving, human feelings are only getting in the way. Their purpose was the Lascurain fortune, which they now have, so Isa needs to stop crying, because that won’t solve anything.

La Gata #19- Thu 9/25 - La Llegada
Gata gets right to the point--she needs money for the kids. Don Italiano was hoping they could take things slow. That's ok, though, he can live without romance as long as she agrees to be a decent wife to him…and maybe give him a little love. They're not off to a good start when Gata turns her face instead of kissing him. Damian shows up before Meatball gets too violent…but it looks like Damian might be bringing the violence.
Rita and Jarocha argue because Rita's an evil old hag. A selfish, evil old hag. A selfish, evil old hag who uses people.
Gata gets yelled at by both guys. Both guys yell at each other. Damian headbutts Meatball. I guess he's a meat patty now. Damnit, Damian, you've already got a record for assault! Gata keeps pleading with Damian that she needs the money for the kids, but instead of just telling her that he's going to give her money, he keeps telling her not to make a deal with Meatball. Meatball says this is a "now or never" offer. This is a lot of arguing back and forth that's going nowhere. Damian finally hauls Gata out of the pizzeria while Meatball yells at her that she's stupid.

La Malquerida #23: 9/24/14: Who is Chantajeing Who?
Hola Amiguis! This is another short and sweet recap. I think I got everything. Here is the earworm. Dirty Laundry
Shall we begin?
Este is being pissy and wants to leave. Cris convinces him to stay, it's the last day of their honeymoon. Este was thinking of taking a private plane. So the upshot is that Este is staying, there's a good boy, and they kiss.
Oh, look Norbie is hitting the bottle, I wonder why. A little riddled with guilt are we? German comes in, wondering where he's been. Norbie tries to say that Manuel's injuries are due to Uli. Yeah, blame the other guy! Now Norbie is thinking this will work to Manuel's advantage. I love German, Mr. Big Sexy! He tells his deluded Papa never happen.
Such a small man. I can't wait till they catch your butt.

Mi corazon es tuyo #48... FINALLY Nico and Jen get engaged!!... and some more 'near miss' scenes of Ana and Fer... Fernando as the tooth fairy... and Diego moves into Reeky's building
Refritos:
Isa arrives home, tells YoMama went to OBGYN alone. There is something you don’t know. / what did you do?
Reeky and Fanny at lunch… he digs into her phone calls and what happened with Leon and Fernando, never seen my dad that angry.
Isa tells YoMama the worst news she could hear… ‘I don’t know who’s my baby daddy’ / ‘NO!! … NO!!’
Lo Nuevo:
Reeky surprised Leon was just a messenger… no wonder your dad was angry… / it was not about that. It turned out Leon was married and has a child…
Said Leon is getting the ashes of his ex… he is still upset… he is signing up for a payment plan to pay for her cremation… (the loan term is for six months, a very short time for someone currently unemployed)
Fanny says really what makes me upset is to think of Mau, Leon’s son. I know what it feels like to lose your mother. Saw the painting at my house? My mom was a beautiful person inside and out. Reeky (I am sure it is a lie) says his mom died too, and his dad is ill, had an embolism (embolia). He was my partner, my friend, my hero… and now he can’t even talk… (wow, good acting from this jerk)
Yomama calls Isa a cynic… Isa brushes it off to YoMama as ‘'asi es la vida' (that's life). YoMama asks ‘then why did you split your legs (aflojaste) for him??' Isa replies it was a few days before and a few days after the weekend at Malinalco with Fernando. YoMama is more and more upset the more she hears. ‘I feel like a piano just fell over me.. No! .. No!’ She wants a triple Margarita from the waiter. YoMama gets even more scared when she learns Reeky knows about Isa's pregnancy. 'Then why did you recommend him to Fernando as your replacement' 'What do you mean why?? Because Reeky knows about our plan!!' … 'No, no.. no manches (don’t tell me).' 'What plan?? (as in DUH!) The plan to strip Fernando dry of his money! (to sum the rest up, YoMama ends up pulling on Isa’s ear… 'Reeky could be our demise… if Fer finds out, we won’t end on the street, we will end up… and I will lose this great(tan rica) bed!.. Waiter!!'.
The twins and Luz are helping Ana finish the dress… the twins say it still does not look like a princess. Ana asks then what do we do? Luz suggests a crown/tiara… they all jump for joy at the idea.
Ana goes to talk to Fanny… how is your heart? Fanny says she feels she will never be able to put the pieces back together. Ana gives her some encouragement… she has a very good glue (gives her a big hug)… pega cachitos del Corazon (a glue specifically to put a heart back together)… muy apachurrante (very squeezy) (Ana gives Fanny a very nice strong hug of support and then whispers in her ear… ' Time always heals… when you feel sad and sensible, you have your BFF-Nana… or the Nana-BFF… a confident who will be with you always.. love ya' (AWWWWW... she has nothing to envy of any real mom there... Ana, don't change anything when you become her real 'new mom' as Luz said)

Quiero Amarte Week 1 Discussion Space Sept. 22-26, 2014
For those who catch this show and would like to discuss amongst Caray, Caray, here you go!
Labels: amarte
Mi Corazon es Tuyo #47 Tues 23 Sep 2014... Ana and Fer in another 'almost kiss' scene, this time with a witness... Betty gets a big letdown courtesy of Ricky... Isa gotta know who is her baby daddy, Isa and Fer play truth or dare
sorry this is late, was sick all day yesterday...
Refritos:
YoMama and Fer make amends
Diego, Ana, Nando and Ximena at club and out on the sidewalk… ‘tacos de lengua’ with Xime very excited that Nando defended her…
Nico, Jen… I love you… I know.
Lo Nuevo:
Bruno flattered that Manuela was mad at YoMama for what she made him do and Manuela ready to beat up YoMama… YoMama caught the last of this and threatens Manuela ‘you don’t know who you are messing with’… Manuela answers in kind.
Ximena invites herself for sleepover in Fanny’s room, Fanny tells her she can forgive Leon but can’t go back with him. Fer comes in to check on Fanny and repeats to her that he loves her.
Betty visits Ricky, they get into chaka chaka… FF>>
Fer knocks on Ana’s room but she does not answer the door in time.
Isa finds the twins in her bed… runs to get Fernando and fakes being delighted about it …
Ana goes to kitchen for a tea. Fernando finds her there, he is in his pj’s. She ALMOST tells him the details about the bad guys at the club, but stops herself. Then she tells him about Tamara’s accident with the kid and that Fanny was there to support Leon. Fernando is sad to hear what happened.
Isa in bed mistakes one of the twins with Fer. She gets sick about it and gets up to go find Fernando. She peeks through some square hole from hallway to kitchen… watches as Fer and Ana have the same conversation of usual ‘you do so much for the kids… you love them… don’t know what we would do without you’. / ‘don’t know what I would do without you all’. He holds her hand and they are AGAIN about to kiss…. Isa has witnessed all this through the square window… Ana notices there is ‘someone in the window’. Fer goes out to look, Isa runs and hides… He doesn’t find anyone… Ana cuts their midnite meeting short… when she walks out, she can smell Isa’s perfume. (que asco! … yuck!)
Isa watches Fer still in kitchen deep in thought… she probably wishes he could think those thoughts about her.

La Malquerida #22: 9/23/14: Trouble, Trouble
Hola Amiguis! This will be a short and sweet recap. Things went by quickly and I had a hard time getting everything. Here is a little earworm.Trouble
Shall we begin?
Acacia has come to see Esteban to let him know what happened, but she's too slow and he goes off on her. The only part she's gotten out is that she wasn't able to fulfill that bidnez deal with the cotten. He isn't waiting he goes off. What is it with these guys.
OKay Esteban, shut up for just a tic. I can't hear myself berating you!

Hasta el Fin Del Mundo #27 20140923 Lucas Bueller's* Day Off
Ripoll: Chava runs around the car, but Sophia has already
opened the passenger door. As she steps
out, she drops her brief case and some papers on the cobblestone. Their eyes meet as both bend down to retrieve
them. While they struggle to resist
feasting upon the lips of the other, I struggle to find something…anything…attractive
about Chava. Maybe squinting and
ingesting several shots of tequila will work. Naw!
In the conference room, later on that morning, Chava and
Sophia get an unexpected visit from the fuzz.
The commander has come to freak Sophia out by telling her that they have
identified two of the kidnappers. The
master mind is still at large and they believe that he or she remains in
town. The vehicles were stolen by the perps
the night before; however, they abandoned the vehicles and left no prints. He wants Chava to view some
security footage about the men who may have jacked up his race car. Chava reviews the videos with the fuzz, but
the perps don’t show their faces. Something
about one of them looks familiar to Chava, but he can’t put his finger on
it. Chava is surprised that the men are
wearing uniforms and were able to easily enter the garage. The fuzz says they are pros.
