Refritos:
Ana/Soledad/Jennifer
Fanny/Edith…
Angel magic trick with twins with Fernando’s 200 pesos…
Johnny and Jennifer at kitchen
Ana/Soledad talk about Fernando and Ana love for each other…
Lo Nuevo:
After the stares, Fernando just heads away with Bruno…
Ana and Soledad … Soledad wants to know more about Fernando love story with Ana… Ana will tell her all the details later… Soledad tells her all the praises from Fernando for Ana… (talks wonders… extraordinary, generous, tender, sweet, charming…). Ana blushes a bit… tells Soledad it is still a bit hard to call her ‘mom’ since she gets nervous… Both women are looking forward to talk and talk to recover more than 30 yrs of separation… Soledad feels bad about that. Ana says lets let it go… lets look forward from here… always… always together. They embrace again.
Ana wants to go put the kids to bed, Fernando says no worries, I will do that. Ana thanks him (tries to give him a laundry list of things to check with Alicia’s and the boys bedtime routines). Fernando wants her to keep talking to Soledad. Soledad asks him for authorization to spend a lot of time talking to Ana. Fernando even offers Soledad to stay in the house with Ana so they can spend lots of time together… Soledad says he is a total gentleman. Angel says goodbye but not before taking their (Soledad and Ana) first picture together. Ana wants him to send her a copy. Angel reminds Ana the booster shots for the twins and to bring Luz back for checkup.
Nico also says goodbye… although he is staying in the house too but is not emotionally in the mood for lots of talk.
Fernando goes to check on Sarai, apologizes for not spending much time with her. (Ali and Luz are watching).. he offers her to ask for anything, she thanks him.
Soledad needs to explain to Ana what happened… ‘Once you know the truth… I will be able to get it off my system and I won’t mention the subject again… it is very important for me that you know that I never abandoned you.’
Sarai tells Fernando that her parents are always fighting/arguing.
Soledad: when Angel’s parents died, I ended jobless… we ended up poor and I found myself in the need to sing at the buses to get us through. (Ana asks about her dad) He left the moment he found out I was pregnant and he even took the money I had saved. I had fallen for him, he seduced me, told me sweet things, and then he just left… have not found out anything about him. Never saw him again.

La Gata #82 - Wed 12/24- La Finta
Virginia isn't Lo's daughter! She's the daughter of Lo's favorite sister and made Lo swear she'd care for her like her own daughter. If Virginia has a daughter, she'll have the same fate as her mother--death.
Virginia is telling Esme that she's "dying" of excitement and wants Esme to be her maid of honor. Or matron, I guess, depending on the timing. She's looking forward to having lots and lots of kids with Carlos.
Pablo vows to keep Lorenza's secret, but Lo says she can't tell Virginia either. He appears to have talked her into telling Virginia herself. Lorenza thought bubbles that at least if Virginia adopts she won't have a grandchild who is *****. There are a million ways she could have finished that sentence, and unfortunately, since she wasn't saying it out loud, there is no way to figure out what she said. Can anyone who saw the Mexican broadcast tell us if it was bleeped there as well?

La Malquerida #85, 12/23/14: Este and Juli Just Can't Get Some...Maybe They Should Meet
Mexico Episode #91
Part 1 (Both parts are now up!):
Read more »
Part 1 (Both parts are now up!):
Esteban is trying every trick in the seduction playbook to
get Acacia horizontal in his hotel room. She’s playing hard to get and trying
to find every excuse to not do what they both want to do, and what she knows he
expected when she walked into his hotel room. Finally, to assuage the “guilt”
Acacia is feeling about betraying her mom, Esteban says that he asked Cristina
for a divorce. Acacia is impactada (not sure exactly why, when she’s having an
affair with her stepfather who keeps talking about running away and playing
house with her).
Viewerville knows that the conversation between Cris and
Este about divorce wasn’t so cut and dried, and we immediately get her
interpretation of the conversation when Elena comes to speak to her. Cris is
actually pleased with the conversation they had. She says that Este accepted
that she needs time to fully recuperate from her depression and miscarriage,
that he doesn’t believe the loss of the baby was her fault, and she felt he was
sincere when he said that she has marked his life forever. Elena says that at
Cris’ side, Este’s life changed totally and for the better. Cris thinks she
needs to become strong and independent again, so that she has more to offer
Esteban. Elena looks like she wants to tell Cris that men don’t necessarily
want an independent strong woman. Instead she tells Cris that she’s happy for
the two of them, but urges that they don’t let too much time pass being
separated. “Part of marriage implies being together with your spouse, even if
the other is not well and in crisis.” Elena believes that the two of them
should fight TOGETHER for Cris to fully recuperate. Cris doesn’t agree. She
wants to show Esteban that she’s strong enough to do it on her own, without
having to rely on him. Elena keeps her mouth shut, but gives her daughter a
knowing, big green-eyed worried look.

Hasta el Fin del Mundo #90 Tuesday 12/23 What to do, what to do?
Ay Caray!
Chava walks in on Pato and Sylvana getting hot and bothered
on the couch in her office. “What to do,
what to do?” he asks himself. He decides
to knock on her door while the two despicable ones rush to makes themselves
presentable: “un momento!” Chava calmly explains he’s just come by to
advise her of Armando’s family emergency.
Pato tries to play it off, saying they’re really busy. Chava sarcastically responds, “Yeah, sure
looks as though you’re really busy.” He
then asks Patricio to step outside to take a look at the car. Patricio tries unsuccessfully to avoid it but
Chava insists and says he’ll wait for him in the parking lot. Chava can barely contain his anger but leaves
anyway.
As soon as he leaves, Pato and Sylvana begin bickering. He wonders what Chava is up to now and she
doesn’t understand why Pato’s surprised since he didn’t come through by firing
Chava. They both noticed Chava’s
demeaner and wonder if he heard them.
eek!

Mi corazon es tuyo #111 The reunion is here!!! and it is more emotional and joyful than anyone could have imagined... Also, Edith runs right into her nightmares from the past
Refritos:
Fernando summons Nico to accompany him to fulfill a dream that has waited more than 30 yrs.
Ana is trying on the gray vertical dress… the girls say it’s a bit old style and too serious. Ana suggests to go to Ecatepec. Fanny says no time for that. Have to shop here.
Luz says she has to look ‘chula’.
Ana asks about Sarai. She has her sort of overly mature scene with Sebas. He is chosing songs for an event.
Nando on phone with the people from the sound system for an outdoor area about 500 m2.
The girls love Ana’s dress… They say Ana looks like a princess.
Fernando presents Nico to Soledad and Angel. Fernando says everything is rolling well. Fernando hands dress to Soledad saying wants Ana to see where she gets her beauty from. Sole is still afraid Ana will reject her. Fer says no way, she is too generous and loving … she has waited all her life for this… all she wants to do is hug her. Soledad is moved.
Lo Nuevo:
The backyard at the Lasc mansion is being converted to a big production set as if this were a wedding instead of an encounter between Ana and her mom. Johnny and Edna are directing all the folks moving plants and stuff around.
Bruno is rehearsing his speech. But he can’t stop himself from stuttering, even when he has marbles in his mouth. He is using marbles instead of guijaros (small pebbles) as famous singers from medieval times used. He realizes its too dangerous. He tries holding a pencil with his teeth, and that doesn’t seem to help either.
Sebas is letting Sarai listen (on his headphones) to some songs he has picked out. She likes it.
Nando brings the audio/lighting guys.
At Angel’s Fernando is talking to Fanny on phone. He is worried Ana will see all the stuff ahead of time. Has Ana asked about it? Ana thinks it is a sort of date with him. Fanny asks about Soledad.. Fanny is excited about how Ana looks, she will do her makeup when they get to the house.
Fanny promises Ana she won’t regret going along with this… Ana gets excited. Soledad looks great in her formal dress. It is black with some bling in the curved neckline and the shoulders are mid shoulder.
Fanny is doing Ana’s makeup in Ana’s room. Jennifer is there. All Ana knows is that it has something to do with Fer.
Luz, the twins and Alicia are setting up the name Ana with petals on the yard. The kids one by one think of how excited Ana will be. Nando is also there thinking of how to value a mother when you have her around.
Fanny brings Ana out with a blindfold… Fanny and Fernando also think of how happy this will make Ana. Fernando thinks ‘you will be happy and that will make me happy. I love you’.
Soledad looks at the picture of baby Ana in her pendant… she is really emotional about the upcoming moment. Angel is smiling beside her. Ana has Fanny, Alicia and Luz beside her, she is also smiling in anticipation.
There are neon lights bouncing on white fabric… it looks real nice. Everyone is checking in with each other with walkie-talkies. Ready?... Ready!... Fernando is standing by Soledad and the twins. Seems the twins will escort Soledad in. Fernando asks Bruno to bring the ‘magic object’. Soledad asks what it is. Fernando says ‘don’t worry, you will know how to use it.’

La Gata #81 12/23/14 La Rita
Hot damn and pass the okra! I got a halfway entertaining episode. Don't hate fellow recappers.
- Pabs and Esme are going to marry in a month...'cause they love each other NOT because she needs a
babysitterbodyguard. - Pablo's bank accounts have all been frozen. He's advised to see a lawyer. He goes to Mariano and he explains that Gisela had some clause in the contract to make sure he would fulfill his end of the contract (Soooo, am I the only one who's wondering if there is some sort of kinky "have sex with Gisela" clause?)
- Low catches Gisela in her apartment and she gives some angry, impassioned speech about how much the family has tried to support him, but now they are not helping Augie when he falls. She's now his enemy and she's declaring war...to the death!

La Gata #80 The one Eli did not recap
Patio Peeps, I got home after midnight last night and only managed to see a bit of the show, and I was so tired that my brain did not pick up most of what was going on, normally I could watch the show at work and write a quick recap but I have lots of work to do before taking off for Christmas, I'll tell you what little I do remember and we then we can use the comments section to fill in the missing parts:
Damian is in a coma and even if he does recover odds are he will have amnesia, this proves to be a hardship because all of Fernando's money was given to Damian and with him in a coma no one can write checks, this means Fernando and Co are broke.
Pablo volunteers to pay for Damian's medical bill, cause he is family, yo. Does painting bad pictures of cats pay that much?
Speaking of which, el idiota de Pablo is about to get bigger better projects, but guess what? He can't paint for anyone else but Gisela because he signed a contract he never read. Dumb ass.
Miss Kitty also wants to help with the bills, cause she is a grown woman.
Fela gets some of her memory back, she remembers that Agustin is a bad guy.
And in the :where the f*ck did that story-line come from segment:
It now turns out that Chacharas, or whatever his name is was once Blanca's manager. Seriously, now I think they are making this stuff up as they go along. Blanca was found how long ago? Whatever.
And I have a treat for you all, this is what I call: Stuff I read on Twitter! Enjoy.
"Senoritas please tell me. Are you all going around trying to kill women who are with men you can't have?, #lagataus"
"Gissela is such an annoying psychopath #lagataus"
"Gisela is such a boring and annoying character...can she just be killed off already.. #LaGataUS"
Join us tomorrow when the crazyness is bound to continue!

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #89 12/22/14 Irma Takes a Fall - But Will Pato?
I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas!
I hope you all have a wonderful day with those you love the most.
I was out Christmas shopping so this will be a quick recap.
Paco confesses to Araceli that Greta Ripoll was the love of his life. Paco never told Araceli the truth because he was afraid that she would stop loving him.
Alexa and Armie agree to keep their love a secret. They can light up the sheets at Armie's apartment, but at the factory they will barely acknowledge each other. It will be like Ghost except without the pottery wheel.
Irais shows up at a place where Matias just happens to be indulging in his hobby - climbing up a fake rock wall. She claims that she's an experienced climber who does this all the time, but giggles like crazy when the guy helps her get buckled into the climbing harness. Irais manages to climb a few feet up the wall, then falls to the mat. Matias rappels down to see if she's okay. He hugs her and she gives a delighted smile.

Last week we learned several things:
How to take one bit of unsubstantiated misinformation and turn it into a BIG truth.
How to ruin a wedding.
How to make your Daddy angry at you and still get your way.
How to give your long-time lover an ultimatum and not spill the coffee.
How to make an Evil Bearded Bean Pole jealous and not know it.
How to lie and believe you are manipulating your father and his best friend.
How to make love on a dark and stormy night.
This week we may learn:
Who takes out the garbage at Sal & Consta's love shack.
If Whoracio will like his new office.
How Lucrecia will deal with the German Marquez problem.
What Cesar plans to do with that "stuff" Aaron is obtaining for him.
If there will be dancing, music and coffee at the pre-harvest coffee fiesta.
How much work Amaya and Carol get done on the video for Nescafe.
How soon other people find out about Max and Amaya's relationship, which is supposed to be a secret between the two of them. It'll be hard for them to keep this happy feeling from their best friends....and then?

New Telenovela: Que Te Perdone Dios, Starts January 19th
If you have seen the mysterious ads then you know that a new
telenovela, Que Te Perdone
Dios, is starting January
19th on Univision in the 10pm slot replacing La Malquerida. It's produced by Angelli Nesma Medina (Lo Que La Vida Me Robo) and stars Rebecca Jones, Sergio Goyri, Zuria Vega and
Mark Tacher. This joint Televisa-Univision telenovela will premier in the
United States first, and then in Mexico in February. Because of this, there
aren’t many images or info available. You might ask, what happened to all those
other tns that started in Mexico in 2014 that we have heard so much buzz about?
When are we going to get to see Yo No
Creo En Los Hombres, La Sombra del Pasado, or El Color de la Pasión? Who knows! If
you are interested in recapping Que Te Perdone Dios, please contact
Blog Mom Jane/Melinama at: caray@mappamundi.com

Here is the history of the telenovela: It was first written
by Caridad Bravo Adams as the film Pecado Mortal (1955),
starring Gloria Marín, young Silvia Pinal, and Víctor Junco; adapted as the
telenovela Pecado Mortal (1960),
starring Amparo Rivelles, Elsa Cardenas, and Tito Junco; and remade as the
telenovela Abrázame Muy Fuerte (2000),
starring Victoria Ruffo, Aracely Arámbula, and Cesar Evora (and Fernando
Colugna as the young hero). As Univision
hasn’t released a synopsis for Que Te
Perdone Dios, here is the synopsis for Abrázame
Muy Fuerte.

Hasta el Fin del Mundo #88 20141219 Zepeda was Wearing Layers Last Night! It's Day 9! When is He Going To Strip? Can We at Least See His Ankles? Geez!
Some Bar
Javier clocks some digits from Isadora, the Lush! Alcohol is a hellava drug!
Paco's Place
Paco is suffering from a hang over and is sipping on a the bit of "the hair of the dog that bit him" when Donna Reed (aka Araceli), his daughter, walks in and confronts him about his past with Greta. Paco is surprised to learn that he exposed his deepest darkest secret while he was drunk crying at Cuco's. Alcohol is a hellava drug. Anyways, Araceli gets all in snit after Paco admits that Greta was the love of his life. Consuelo, Araceli's mother was just a runner-up or a rebound girl. Araceli was not born out of a love union, but rather a "I got dumped and you'll have to do" union. Lots of annoying crying and sobbing between the two of them. She was born, what more does she want? Waaah!

MI Corazon es Tuyo #109, 12/19/14: Oh, Belaaaaaa! Yo' Ti-i-i-i-i-ime Is Uh-h-h-h-h-p!
The
Rehash:
The docs in Houston (amazing how well the
stars in this telenovela pronounce this city’s name) remind Don Fernando that
the best next step is to ship Diego off to Basil, Switzerland for months and months of rehabilitation. [Suiza—has
a “z” as opposed to Suecia, Sweden, which has “ice” appropriately enough, spelled backward in it, for
those of you who remember our crazy discussions about this a couple of years ago.]
Back in the Mexico City suburbs, a very
flustered Soledad leaves our Dr. Angel of Mercy, refusing his offer to
accompany her to Isabela’s/Blanca’s apartment.
(Viewerville is so very curious to know what this guy’s and Sol’s
history is together that he should treat her like so much like his… his own mother, HMMMM?)
He kisses her good-bye, they exchange blessing’s and she’s off, he with
a smile of blissful satisfaction at having done yet another good deed.
Back in his hospital room, a still rather dazed Diego
seems anything but nonplussed by his opportunity to travel to the freezing
Swiss Alps for his hand-rehab stint. He
turns to Ferd and tells him that he wants nothing more than for him to return
to the D.F. to win back Ana. Fernando
doesn’t take much convincing and plans to arrive back that evening.
Meanwhile, Pissabela can’t handle the grand time
she’s had pulling one over on Ana’s mother with the fraudulent claim of being
her abandoned daughter and runs to the bathroom to “relieve” herself.
Soledad crosses paths in the meantime with a
nanny and her five charges and the call of the blood begins to trumpet ever so
softly…..
The
News Flash:
Sebastian tries to connect with the woman
dressed in red—the stranger, as Ana warns him off of speaking to
strangers. She seemed about to cry and
he felt her pain…… Bad news that she was
“looking” at them so strangely for such a long time.
Back at Lux Manor, Leon and Fanny secretly watch
the endearing, adorable way that Mau and Luz interact, first discussing their
two mothers’ deaths and their assimilation of the facts, and then their
discussion of their two fathers’ new lady loves and their wishes that each
would marry these women and make them their new mothers.

La Malquerida, capitulo 83. 12/19/14.
Skipping the old....
Hector is having breakfast alone when suddenly he spots Cris walking up. She remembers his advice to concentrate more on her. So she woke up this morning and finished all her chores so that she can accompany him to San Jaciento. Smile from Hector.
The new girl, Estrella, swears to Ale that she will work hard and not fail her. Danilo creepily pulls her hair back. Ale asks Estrella to go to the kitchen with the maid for a bite to eat then lights into Danilo. He knows he promised but work is work. His associate already found her. What was he suppose to do? Return her? She begs him not to do it. He has enough girls working for him already. He tells her not to worry. He was advised that the little girl is not quite so innocent. Ale calls him a good for nothing. I will not allow you to do to her what you did to me. I will get her out of here even if you kill me for doing it.

La Gata #79 12/19/14 La Fractura
42 to go.
I'm out and about today. I will be posting the recap in fits and spurts with combined scenes and in some cases just a sentence or two when the scene was a lot of repetitive conversation.
Parte Uno
We are "treated" to the refrito from Thursday. Low runs to Pablo's side. Gisela claims he's groggy from too much drinking, but Esme doesn't fall for it. Pablo doesn't drink. Gisela knows Esme must be upset. Gesela tried to tell Esme that Pablo was steppin' out on her, but Esme didn't want to believe it. Esme goes OFF. She tells Gisela to cut it out. She's tired of her crap. Esme drives her wheelchair into Gisela, knocking her onto the bed.
Rita tells Carrlos to butt out of the grown up conversation. She and Dorila were just discussing his relationship with Little Miss Finolis (Virginia.) Dorila turns to him and tells him that Low still doesn't approve the relationship. Carrlos tells Dorila that Low will have to get used to it. He plans on studying, bettering himself and marrying Miss Virginia. Dorila sneers and tells Rita that this boy just "can't be him." Dorila says she'll be back in a month and leaves. "Can't be who?" asks Carrlos. Rita just brushes off his questions and announces she's going to go visit Ines.

Hasta el Fin del Mundo on Thursday, December 19, 2014 #87 (Funny Love)
-This is what I remember from last night-
-Paco got drunk at Cuco's Place and screamed that Greta Ripoff es una traidora (!) Chava thinks that he has crossed his wires and confused Octi with Greta right when Paco says Correia and Octavio are too.
-Mati wasn't hastifully thrown out of Silvie's office this time; she just pulls him out in almost complete silence.
-The Ripoff girls, Fausto, Oliver and Patricio are inside then things get awkwardly quiet for a minute when the Mariachi music plays. Greta thinks it's Pato's idea when it wasn't; it's Chava's! Sofi goes outside to tell him to keep on stepping because it's not working while Fausto, Oliver, Dani and Alexa admire the mariachi affair. When they all go inside, Alexa asks Armie if he sings and he says no; PAUSE- In Amorcito Corazon, he sang the theme song acapella! Chava tells the mariachi to start again and keep on going!
Si nos dejan
nos vamos a querer toda la vida.
Si nos dejan
nos vamos a vivir a un mundo nuevo.
Yo creo
podemos ser un nuevo amanecer
de un nuevo día.
Yo pienso
que tú y yo podemos ser felices todavía.
Si nos dejan
buscamos un rincón cerca del cielo.
Si nos dejan
haremos de las nubes tercuiopelo.
Y ahí juntitos los dos
cercita de Dios
será lo que soñamos.
Si nos dejan
te llevo de la mano, corazón
y ahí nos vamos.
nos vamos a querer toda la vida.
Si nos dejan
nos vamos a vivir a un mundo nuevo.
Yo creo
podemos ser un nuevo amanecer
de un nuevo día.
Yo pienso
que tú y yo podemos ser felices todavía.
Si nos dejan
buscamos un rincón cerca del cielo.
Si nos dejan

Y ahí juntitos los dos

Si nos dejan

y ahí nos vamos.
Si nos dejan
de todo lo demás nos olvidamos.
de todo lo demás nos olvidamos.
(Oh. and there was probably some leg humping from Irma and Araceli.)
Avances from Mexico-
Pato's come outside to punch Chava who hits him right back while Alexa and Dani scream in awe at this.
-Araceli asks Paco if GRETA hurt him so badly that he has to drown his sorrows in liquor because you screamed that while you were drunk; admit it, you NEVER loved my mother.
-Marisol is marking her territory all over Lucas' lap and face (she might just go further)
-More of Araceli third-degreeing Paco about Greta and Consuelo and lastly the thought of her being the daughter of a horizontal pity party.
-While some are getting lucky, some won't be as much as usual. Patricio tells a jaded Silvana that their coital rendezvous' won't be as frequent.
-Alexa has shown up at Armie's; she can't stand a minute more without his kisses, his hugs and his caressings so she proceeds to kiss him.
-Sofia is with Araceli; she asks her what is up with them 2? Araceli has that little Irma in her head saying, "Esa Rubia DESABRIDA YA TUVO SU OPORTUNIDAD." and says that the bond her and Chava have is soooo strong that it goes overboard and Sofia makes a face that says, "Why am I not surprised?" She understands.

Mi corazon es tuyo #108 12/18/14 Monster in red
We open with Fernando dreaming of Ana. In his
dream he’s taking off his tie, he’s tired after a hard day of work. Ana comes
in, wearing a pair of glasses and briefly covers his eyes with a scarf. He’s
surprised that she waited for him, since it’s so late now – they are acting
like any normal married couple would - this guy sure dreams PG- rated. Because it
is so late, Ana says that he can only choose one card from the little chest of
naughtiness. I take back the PG-rated stuff, this is actually rather kinky and
a good idea for ….ahem… moving on.
Anyway, Ana thinks that he should only pick one
card, because it’s late, but he wants to pick several. He ends up with the
cards for Massage, Besos tronados, Jacuzzi and another one that I didn’t
get. Fer doesn’t want to settle for only one, but not to worry, Ana has one ace
up her sleeve cleavage – a card that says that all the others will be
accomplished. They go to the bed and start smooching.
Time for Fer to wake up, kissing his pillow in
the Houston hotel and murmuring Ana’s name.

La Malquerida #81, 12/17/2014: The Greatest Danger is to Not Take Risks
Mexico Episode #87
The Old:
Ulises follows Memo from the brothel all the way to the drug
farm and takes pics on his cell phone. Luisa gives Manuel back the abortion
money, without telling him she didn’t have the abortion, and calls into
question his manhood. Dan and Esteban reaffirm their partnership over tequila,
and decide to take a road trip to Mexico (City). Dan picks up on Este’s
desperation. Acacia is kind and considerate to Cris for about two minutes,
before Hector arrives and she finds out he had a lot to do with Cris finally
retaking her life. Acacia cops an attitude and leaves them. Cris tells Hector
she needs him now more than ever, and he asks about Esteban.
The New:
Cris is silent about Esteban, and Hector backs off and says
she doesn’t have to talk about it. Cris says that what she and Este once had no
longer exists—it all changed. Now it’s just her, reinventing herself. Before
she can have a relationship again, she needs to be well. It would be easy to go
back to the way things were before, but she no longer wants that. “One’s happiness
can’t depend on someone else.” She knows
that if Este came back to her, it would only be because she asked him. Hector is
proud to hear the strong, brave, determined Cristina that he used to know! They
hug, and he reminds her that she can count on him as always.
Acacia runs into Esteban in the living room. He tells her
about his trip to Mexico City, and for a second she gets worried that he’s
moving there permanently. He gives her a card and they separate down different
hallways—she to go to her bedroom, he to leave—but both come back at different
times to see if the other is still there. Este speaks to himself: “Whatever
happens, you have to be mine, Acacia.” Acacia reads the note Este wrote. It’s
an excerpt from a well-known poem. In a series of scenes, Acacia debates
ripping up the letter, or putting it away in her keepsake/jewelry box. Here is
the poem:

La Gata #77 - Wed 12/17 - La Vibora
In Blanca's assessment, she keeps saying Augie's her husband. She vaguely remembers other things, like the dump and the shack/outhouse, and her roses, and that she'd like to see her daughter.
Dorila is hanging a painting on a freshly-painted wall in Augie and Lo's apartment. Gisela shows up and Lo tells her they've had nothing but bad luck since she showed up--Augie's in jail! He's accused of kidnapping, and Lo really doesn't know what to believe. But she believes the worst of Gisela, and she's sure this has something to do with plotting that Augie and Gisela did together.
Esme and Fer spy on Blanca's assessment. Doesn't anyone on this show have a sense of ethics or respect for other people's privacy? Blanca remembers Esme, but calls her Renata. She thought Fer had "Renata" locked up. Blanca continues her mixed-up babbling and Esme just hugs her and doesn't say anything. Not even "Trust me, mom, it's this guy who's your husband, not the wacko in the cell."

Mi corazon es tuyo #107 Fernando starts wooing Ana from long distance... Sarai keeps annoying everyone... Isa has a close call but does not get to see Ana at Chicago. However she begins to work a plan to hurt Ana hard.
Refritos:
Luz shows Fanny and Leon the fortune cookie message. ‘if someone leaves your life is sometimes so that their seat is free (for someone else)’.
Leon tells Luz Mau fell asleep waiting to see her.
Ana tells Fanny she has to go work at Chicago. Fanny says I will take care of Luz.
At Houston, Fernando talks to Natalia and Diego about Ana then. Fernando tells Diego have got no clue about Soledad Fuentes yet. And have not checked email since cell phone battery is dead. Fernando asks Natalia how she fell for Diego. For his values, for his gentleness.
Isa is heading to see Doroteo but sets her phone to check Fernando’s email through it.
YoMama nags about DoroTeo not contacting her recently.
Angel refers to Soledad as ‘Mama Sol’. He realizes whoever is looking for her on the web site might know where her daughter is so he responds to the request with Soledad’s location (El Oro) and her job (children’s choir director).
Isa gets the email and is jumping for joy.
Lo Nuevo:
Leon and Mau are leaving. Fanny has Luz in her arms so Leon comments they are already looking like a mom and dad. Love you. Fanny is heading to take Luz to bed when Sarai comes down the stairs with two house maids ordering around how to wash her clothes, sneezing and complaining about the dust. She can’t sleep in the girls room. Fanny says you have the living room, the couch or there is a foyer. Sarai keeps whining.
Edith has something to show Fanny… her brother… seems Edith has given Nando a makeover. He looks a bit more mature and less nurdy even if he still has glasses on. His hair is more natural and smiles widely.
At Chicago, they are introducing ‘Yolanda’ (wow! None other than YoMama!!!) DoroTeo is so shocked I am not sure when he will pick up his jaw from the floor… YoMama grabs the pole and starts swinging around it. Now it is DoroTeo who is having a nightmare… loL!
Isa calls Angel. She fakes being real happy that she found her. She asks Angel if Soledad had a daughter. Angel is suspicious so he asks what relationship does Fernando have with Soledad’s daughter.
Fernando is daydreaming about Ana while Ana, in the Chicago, is thinking she has to tell the truth to Fernando.
Angel is in disbelief. Isa tells him that Soledad’s daughter Blanca is looking for her. Angel is so elated, ‘you can’t imagine how long we have been waiting for this moment’.

La Gata #76 12/16/14 La Locura
What a frustrating episode.
I'm going to do this all out of order. There were really only two story arcs that saw any action (and believe me I am using the term "story arc" VERY loosely.)
Oh, and my notes were crap. La Gata must have sedative affects because I was drifting during the episode and as soon as the closing credits ran I hit the hay and slept hard until my alarm went off this morning.
Fela is found
But she is found more as an accident. It's not like anyone was ACTIVELY searching for her.
Augie brought Blanca pictures and news clippings of Esme and Blanca is not amused. She wants the real deal. She doesn't believe he is her husband. He says he is and can prove it. He takes her to the mansion that used to be Fer's, but was stolen by the MNs and is now back under the ownership of Fer. While she's there, Blanca has a hallucination of Fer. She freaks out and runs out the door and on to the terrace and starts screaming.

Mexico Episode #86

Cristina has just castrated Esteban and handed him his
cojones as a parting gift, by telling him his services aren’t needed in
Benavente, Rubio’s in charge now, and don’t let the door hit ya on the way out.
I try to muster up some sympathy for him and fail.
Ale is praying in her bedroom prison for strength and peace.
Dan arrives to disturb that tiny bit of peace and demands to know what she’s
doing. He snatches the sacred heart card out of her hands and mocks that she’s
praying to be free of him. Ale sasses back that she’s praying for him. Always
on the lookout for ways to manipulate Dan, get some freedom, and help someone
else out, Ale tries to convince Dan to give Perla her store/spa. Primarily, she
plays up that she and Perla hate each other and that Perla is on her case all day.
She wants to get Perla out of the house more. Plus, Ale points out, Dan keeps
saying that he will change for her, but by going back on his word to Perla he shows
that he hasn’t. Dan only hears the first part and is excited that Ale is
jealous of the attentions he shows Perla.

Hasta el Fin del Mundo #85 Tuesday 12/16 : Boy loses girl again!
Casa de McDreamy
Straight to the new stuff: Irma jumps into bed with the
unsuspecting Armando --- ooopsies, not so fast sister. Armando jumps up wondering how in blazes did
she get into his apartment. Irma tries
to explain that she just wants to work things out with him and apparently she
still moves him, que no? Absolutely not,
he claims. He was fast asleep. When is she gonna get it through her thick
skull that he will never, ever, ever return to her. He doesn’t desire her and doesn’t love
her. He realizes suddenly that she’s
drunk and she claims that was the only way she could muster up the nerve to
come to him, as humiliating as that is.
He tells her to get dressed and get out.
He sees the concierge’s key (he that stands guard with no shelter during
rain, sleet, and snow, I guess) and quickly realizes that’s how she got
in. He drags Irma to the Concierge’s
desk. Concierge has no idea how she got
his keys. Armando warns him he’d better
pay closer attention and not to ever let anyone into his apartment without his
authorization. He leaves Irma there and

Mi Corazon es tuyo #106, Sarai gets a taste of the 'hell week', Lasc twins version. Fernando takes Diego to Houston. New kids Dr Angel happens to know Soledad so he responds to Fernie's ad, but Isa reads it first.
Refritos:
Fernando continues the listing of all the ‘characters’ in the Lasc household.
F: an adolescent that gets her braces stuck…
A: A cook who behaves like an alien… a butler who stutters… a multi-use boxer, a kitchen helper who…
F: Ana a nanny… a wonderful nanny. These weeks you have looked at me different (oh yeah?)… you have looked at me with less reserve, a bit kinder, more directly… with those spectacular green eyes (she blinks several times)… with your beautiful smile… (gets a bit close to her, or rather she gets closer to him with a big smile)
A: Thank you for the flattering compliments… and like I said, time helps to heal the wounds… (he gives her a bear hug) ah no, no, no! … don’t get so ahead of yourself (no se emocione tanto!) no, sir, it’s a long way still for the wounds to heal.
F: Yes. I’m sorry.
(he goes for the divorce papers to show her)… she says he has a toothpaste commercial smile on his face
F: I want you to see this.
A: this is… the… divorce sentence.
F: Yes. This document says Isa and I are officially divorced…
A: (jumps to hug him) Ah, blessed be God!! Blessed be God!! Don Fernando! How wonderful, sir!!
F: Finally a chapter in our lives is closed… (he gives her a bear hug, she complains she can’t breathe) … sorry. Don’t get away from me…
A: No, sir. This can’t be.
F: (they are leaning on his desk in the library/study) nothing’s easy. I know. But in this spot… in this spot began our love story… in this spot you hit my nose, remember?... and I saw your beautiful face for the first time… another day we dared to kiss… don’t get away from me anymore, Ana… let me show you how much I love you… (they are about a hair away lips to lips)
Lo Nuevo:
They are about to kiss… when suddenly a girl scream is heard… Both Ana and Fernando are willing to ignore it at first… we hear Ana say ‘it is no big deal, its no big deal’ and they both are about to kiss again but a second later Ana gives a huge sigh and pushes him away and starts shouting ‘what is the matter?? What??!!’ then they both run out.
The issue turned out to be Siete slurping the new girl (forgot her name) in front of Luz and the twins (from their face I can tell they woke up to her screams and are not happy campers for her waking them up like that). (where’s Alicia??) A minute later Ana, Fer, Fanny, Nando, Alicia are in the room as well and they all are in around her bed. Turns out the twins had put pieces of ham slice over Sarai’s face so that Siete would slurp her. The twins and Luz go fetch Sebas but as soon as he learns who is screaming he runs to her side. Nando and Fanny find it both annoying and funny that Sarai is so annoyed at Siete slurping her. Fernando eventually brings back the peace… they send Sarai to the bathroom to clean up.

La Gata #75 The one where Esmeralda joined a cult 12/15/2014
Ok, confession time, I don't watch the show. I read the recaps, and I watch the episodes I recap but I can't make myself watch without wanting to cry, last night my sister joined me in watching this and fun times were had by all. This will be a short recap because really nothing happened, there was no Mariano, no Gisela and no Lorenza.
Now to the recap:
Blanca and Agustin are hanging out at kidnap central, she wants to know when he will set her free, and he makes excuses, he kisses her and she thinks this is gross, she's only going along in order to be reunited with her daughter, Miss. Kitty. Will she be able to fake this affection for Agustin long term? She better be, cause no one is looking for her.

La Malquerida, capitulo 79.
Skipping
the old....
Cris tells Rosa that Esteban wants kids and she can't give it to him. So she has decided to let him go and see if he comes back.
Acacia pulls away from Esteban's arms and starts to have regrets. Esteban, while groping her, says they have to live their love otherwise they will regret it. We can either go our separate ways or enjoy this love together. She admits she's afraid. He tells her not to think of anything else but living their love. She wants to leave but he stops her. He tells her to think it over. Do you realize what you awaken in me? They start playing tonsil hockey.
Katia tells Hector and Ulises that she found an account that belonged to Nuria but under another name. Ulises excitedly says it should contain all the money Nuria stole. He grabs the file and tries to look at the information but Hector stops him. This will take time to investigate. Allow me to do this. Ulises offers his help. Hector looks at the file and smiles.
Acacia gets a phone call but doesn't know who it's from. Esteban grabs her again and she caresses his back.

Quiero Amarte Highlights & Discussion (Week 13-Dec 15)
Looking
Back:
Vivi Wraps it Up
Wedding called off. Amaya denounced as a home-wrecker/whore. Max denounced as a cheater and liar. Connie hooked up/shacked up/loved up with Sal. Manuel and Geno have a secret love child, who doesn't even know who his father is. Manuel determined to fire Amaya. Whor confronting Amaya about her "cheating" in her hotel room. Wow!
Lila Gives us Some Good Ones
Lips Not Hips
Mauro’s Ire Re-Fires
Emma Arrives and Dives
Consensus Reached on the Patio
Constanza is Insecure—She needs a man for validation of her worth.
Sal’s accusations that Max and Amaya are lovers are LAME. His proofs would not hold up in court.
Horacio’s treatment of Valeria is inexcusable in any culture north or south of the US-Mexico border.
Looking Ahead:
Speculations Abound
Will Consta “Pull a Lu” if she finds out she’s pregnant?
Is César genuinely interested in Amaya?
Can Sal become more dangerous to Max where Consta is concerned?
What will Horacio do when he finds no one with Amaya in her hotel room? (Oh, Max, if you are downstairs, please be careful.)

Mi Corazon es Tuyo #104, Lives are saved today, Siete, Lenin, and Pablo edition
Sorry for this being so late. I didn't know until 5:30pm PST Friday that this show was being shown at 5:00pm PST instead of the usual 8:00pm PST because of the telethon. So, this recap consists of the first half hour being a synopsis of the show from Univision and the last half hour being what I was able to record, although without CC's because those weren't working last night either. What a night.
First half hour that I didn't see: (fill in more detail in the comments if you want)
Ana talks with León about his jealous behavior and it’s driving Fanny away.

Ana talks with León about his jealous behavior and it’s driving Fanny away.
Fanny and Lenin bring some of the kids from the shelter to the mobil cancer screening where the director of the shelter has gone and they suspect she has cancer.
Ana suspects something odd in Siete’s food, possibly rat poison, but not before he consumes some, and the family rushes him to the pet hospital.
Meanwhile, Isabela is patting herself on the back for a poisoning well done.
Edith runs into Nando without all the goth makeup, I don’t know where since I missed this part, and tells him that she’s Elisa and he’s completely clueless about who she really is.
Isabela tries to hack into Fernando’s computer to do her dastardly deeds, but is unsuccessful so far.Read more »

What are some of the 2014 faves of my Caray Mates? Some things like Lo Que La Vida Me Robo or Que Pobres Tan Ricos may come to mind.

Mi Corazon: Smoothing Over Those Nasty Family Wrinkles
Isabela has sneaked around to Don Fernando’s computer and taken down the link to the info about Ana’s mother, looking for another way to screw over dear Ana.
Don Fernando has entered the kitchen to see what the row is about. He finds Manuela has returned, much to everyone’s dietary relief. She is now so submissive in speech, tone, and manner that even he has trouble understanding what she’s saying when she speaks (--and it's irritating as hell to Viewerville!) He returns eventually to the library and Bela entices him with the baby’s movement. (Dunno about the rest of Viewerville, but watching her comb her fingers through his hair as he puts his ear to her belly makes me cringe and retch!!)

La Malquerida #78, 12/11/14: Acacia’s Guilt & Self Pity Farewell Tour
Mexico Episode #84
Read more »
Uli mourns what was and what could have been in the future
with Acacia. Hector tells him he needs to go on with his life and achieve his
goals, without Acacia. He gives Ulises a big bear hug, while Uli cries.
Esteban is driving out of the hacienda like a bat out of
hell. Rubio tries to stop him- he’s not thinking clearly. Este whines about how
hard he tried to save his marriage (a whole 3 weeks!), but Cris threw their
marriage away. Rubio thinks that since he’s decided to dump Cris, he should
take Acacia with him. Este says there’s only one thing stopping that—Acacia
herself.
Acacia reproaches Cristina for letting Esteban go, and
demands that she pull herself together and stop Este from leaving. Cris doesn’t
want a man by her side who doesn’t understand or share her pain over the loss
of their child. She thinks it’s best that he goes.
A: React! React! (Wake up!) And run and stop him! WE lost
him once, but this time if he leaves forever it’s going to be YOUR fault for
being such a WEAK woman!
C: (SLAP!) Respect me! I’m your mother!
C: (SLAP!) Respect me! I’m your mother!
Acacia says Cris needs to woman up and save her marriage. Cris
tells Acacia that if she’s so worried about Esteban not being there, then she
should go with him.
C: If my child didn’t survive, it was a sign that my
marriage also couldn’t be saved… From the looks of it, neither he nor you
understand me, but I also don’t care that you do.
A: Are you saying that I’m not important to you?

Thursday, Dec. 11, 2014 on Hasta el Fin del Mundo
Sofia knocks on her door and then barges into Dani's room looking for Lucas.
Olly has come over unannounced dressed up like he is something else in pink pants that show off his lovely boner crotch bulge to see Dani.
Sofi explains why she is looking for Lucas. Dani asks Sofia how she knows about mentioned fights thus revealing she knows too. Sofi is this close as she looks under the bed after Luc moves out of the way. Olly and Grrrrreta find their way into Dani's room and to Olly eventually explains that she needs him to help Lucas out of the Ripoff Mansion.
Chava gives Armie the skinny and Mati is filled in as well.
Olly is furious and asks for an explanation while Lucas asks why he is asking for one. Dani focuses on getting Luc out and they make a braid out of sabanas to scale down the wall.
Mati explains he had good intentions in schlepping Marisol to the matches and the 3 galans brainstorm.
Sofi and Fausto talk about Chava and Flor. Grrreta is eavesdropping and screams at Fausto.
The three teens plan some more.
Grrrreta bitches some more and more and more while Fausto explains he is helping the GIRLS; GIRLS meaning Alexa AND Daniela as well. Grrreta gives Fausto one last chance in which he MUST tell the girls what GRRETA wants to hear and he declines. THE BIGGEST BITCHING GRRRRRRETA HAS EVER BITCHED IN THIS SHOW; SHE FIRES FAUSTO! HELL NO BITCH, BURN IN HELL GRRRETA BANDI DE RIPOFF!
Sofi is back at the Ripoffery and the three muskateers Chava, Armie and Matt, talk.
Olly spews a mean one calling Lucas a piece of cowardice. Olly makes it out the front door while Luc rapunzels it down the wall and is almost caught by a gardener. He makes it out perfectly fine.
Sofi and Chava talk about the debt; Sofi is worried about Miguelina and even offers to pay the debt but Chava vetoes it. Its Lucas' problem.
Olly and Luc made it out of the mansion and argue in the car about Dani, the purloining and whaddaya know, they pull over to fight.
Fausto is out with his suitcase, scarf and cango. He laments the loss of his job for Sofia, Alexa and Dani's sake.
Olly annoys me some more with his stupid insult (might as well call Lucas cerote or maldito cobarde)
Sofi gets a call; Aurora says Greta has just fired Fausto.
Irais comforts Mati while he feels bad for being a "bad friend."
Silvie has caught wind that Fausto was fired. "Without the guy, that cerote Greta won't know what to do."
Sofi is in the house again and argues with Greta. Dani is in this now and is just as shocked as Sofia!
Luc and 'Lina reunite and Mari is in the background in a cute pink dress just standing there looking pretty.
Dani and Sofi just yell at Greta instead of pulling the classic, "IF HE GOES, I WILL GO TOO BITCH!"
Fausto buys a movie ticket.
Mati and Armie talk about bringing the cash thay they won back and Mati agrees.
Chava reminds Luc he is to face his fears as of right now.
Alexa calls Sofi and has heard about Fausto.
Elmer from Las Vias del Amor threatens to send Lucas to hell if he isn't paid the tall amount he is short of; in come Armie and Mati with the classic, "Youll have to go through me!"
Lina is talking with Dani.
Chava says beating each other won't help and that there are 2 soups; either you accept the money or there will be legal action. They accept the money and just tell Lucas to never come back. (I'm sure this isn't the last of them.)
Mari is subtly annoyed with Miguelina having been on the phone with Dani.
The 3 Muskateers and newly recruited Luc walk down the street glad, proud and heads held high. Mati throws in he would never hurt Mari or ever put her in harm's way and Chava says he knows.
Alexa asks what is Fausto's favorite place? The movies!
Luc is home safe and sound! Miguelina and Mati make a celebration dinner. Luc tells Mari where he was hiding during the day.
Alexa and Grrrreta talk about how Fausto had been Alexa's confident since she got back from Spain and longer. Grrrreta just bitch, bitch, bitches and it isn't getting through to her much.
Flor inside a taxi is planted on front of the mansion asking Renzi how to cause her scandal.
Avances- Flor will beg Sofi with all her fake might to leave Chava.

Gisela is interrupted in her murder attempt by Jarocha. I don't even listen to the insults they're tossing at each other. Watching Jarocha throw her out was fun, though. Why is Esme wearing makeup?

La Malquerida #77, 12/10/14
Mi Corazon es tuyo #102 10 Dec 2014. Fernando asks kids (through Nando) for help to get Ana back. Edith has a plan to get with Nando. Manuela returns to the mansion. And Isa finds out Fernando is looking for Ana's mom.
Refritos: Edith/Nando …I have really fallen for Nando
Nando/Fanny … thank you for your declaration of love but I have a gf. … hashtag.. between the two of us… yes Fanny, I do like her. (Edith is jumping for joy in the hallway)
Alicia and Pablo…
Edith/Fanny
Ana and Pablo/Alicia
Lo Nuevo:
Fernando tells Diego he dreams of the day Diego tells him he has finally forgiven him.
Natalia comes in with food. Fernando leaves.
Fanny surprised about Edith’s right to the point style. Nando did not expect this.
Alicia and Pablo… he adventures himself to hold her hand, she sighs in delight. They are caught by Fernando, but he is too busy looking for Ana.
In kitchen, Fernando catches up with Ana. He nags at her for leaving Alicia and Pablo alone. ‘don’t lose sight of them for a second’ / ‘how about I sit between the two of them?... did you ever have a gf as a teen?
Pablo and Alicia thank Ana for helping them get together… she does not realize Fernando is behind her and says ‘he sometimes has ideas… from last century.’ (Fernando nags at her some more after hearing that) don’t go get drinks, don’t go potty, don’t even blink…
Edith comes to Fanny and Nando. He feels he and Edith are sort of opposites (ever hear about opposites attract, boy?) She is a bit … extreme… and you are so normal?... ok I admit it we are both rare extremes. Edith is real smart. We have many subjects to talk about. But she is a bit punk style and that is far different from mine. (Fernando catches Edith eavesdropping on them so she has to walk away) Fernando comes in and tells them Edith seemed to be eavesdropping. Nando gets real nervous. Asks what did Edith say. Fanny runs to find Edith. Fernando can see something is odd.

TELEMUNDO Y MENOS: Reina de Corazones, Project Chapter a Day, Wednesday, Dec. 10, 2014 - 139: Countdown to the Gran Fin.
[Episode 139 was originally aired in the U.S. on Nov. 28, 2014]
I am sure that I can't write a recap half as entertaining as NovelaMaven's of yesterday but here goes as we hurtle towards the end.
Don't joke about Mom! Channeling Agatha Christie, Juanjo
pulls a gun and tells Reina that the murderer is always the one no one
suspects. Reina can’t believe it. She says this must be a joke. JJ grabs her
and shows her the shrine to his mother.
He says that she was a marvelous woman. She never should have died so young and left her Chiche alone.
Even after the amnesia, the drugs and everything, the Dragon can still remember a casual conversation from 10 years ago - “Chiche” repeats Navier, “no puede
ser.” FELS and Izzy ask what he knows. Flashback to Nav and JJ joking around as Valet Parkings.
Nav tells Juanjo that he got him a job at Estefi’s wedding. Said Estefi drives
up and conspicuously calls Juanjo "Chiche" several times even blowing him a kiss.
“Chiche?” asks Navier. JJ says that he doesn’t know why she calls him Chiche
sometimes – a rich person’s eccentricity. Back to the present. Nav pulls out
his phone and dials.

Hasta el Fin del Mundo #81 20141209 Day #3 and Zepeda Still hasn't Stripped! What is Up with That?
We need a recapper for Tuesdays or Thursdays! Please contact me at cypratt@yahoo.com.
So anyway, this might be the worst episode ever. It's day three and Zepeda hasn't removed any clothing. All of this "acting" is really getting on my nerves. It's like his shirt his glued on or something! At this rate, they will never reenact the shower scene.
After the piano lessons, Stalker Dani tells boring Oliver (aka Dulliver) that Lucas is boxing. Dulliver tells Dani that the boxing matches are illegal and rigged. If the cops raid the gym, Lucas will be arrested. Dulliver is certain that Lucas is knowingly engaging in illegal fights.

La Malquerida, capitulo 76. 12/09/14.
The
doctor breaks the news to Cris and Esteban that there is little
chance she will become pregnant again. He recommends therapy to deal
with her loss. Cris cries out in anguish and Esteban assures her
they will find the best doctors to help her get pregnant again.
Acacia tries to pay Ulises a visit. Instead Carmen answers the door and tells her to leave. Don't you understand that my son doesn't want to see you again? I will never forgive you for what you did to him. Ulises comes to the door and asks Carmen to leave so that he can talk to Acacia. Ulises asks her what she came for and Acacia hands him his necklace back. She understands that they will never be together again.
Norberto asks Manuel if he is still worried about Cris. There's nothing you can do so make sure you pay close attention to Acacia. Manuel wonders who's worse. His mother or his father? Norberto tells him to quit saying stupid things. I only told you what I thought about that baby. I may not be the best father or the best man but I did not abandon you like your mother. Manuel informs Norberto that German only paid for 3 night stay for their mother at the hotel. Well, since she is out of money perhaps she will stop being selfish and come back home. Then it will be me who will set some ground rules.

12/9/14: Thank You Note from the Family of Blogger Madelaine
All- I got this note from Madelaine's brother.
-Vivi
----
Hello,
I am one of Madelaine's
younger brothers. I wish that you
would pass on to all how deeply we were touched at the outpouring of all of the
members of your group. She is deeply
missed by us already and time has not yet begun to heal our pain. But I will say this to all, she will not be
forgotten. While at her house after she had passed I noticed a saying she had
hanging on her wall:
Some people
come into our lives
and quickly go......
Some stay for awhile
and leave footprints
on our hearts,
And we are never,
ever the same.
I would say that we will all never be the same. May we all
be thankful that our lives touched one another's. May we all share what she has so generously
shared with us. Again, I thank you all
most graciously and may God bless you all.

Mi Corazon es Tuyo #101 Life returns to normal at Lasc, Diego and Nico get welcome greeting, Lasc style. Fernando and Diego have heart to heart talk.
Lo Nuevo:
Ana wakes up, gets help from Siete to wake up the kids… She goes in kitchen and gets startled at Don Fernando who is making espresso coffee. He gives Ana a cup and she almost chokes on it since its strong.
Johnny is at the apartment with Edna… he does some of his usual skids of comedy… ff>>
Fernando is telling Ana about Manuela’s whereabouts or lack thereof.
Fanny joins them in kitchen. She tells them she broke it off with Leon. Tells them about Leon’s bout of jealousy with Lenin.
At school, Lenin meets with his friends and talks about Fanny with them. Here comes Leon having just heard Lenin say he likes Fanny. Leon punches him and threats him and Lenin returns the punch. Lenin mocks what Fanny saw in Leon to begin with and they begin to fight… (is this the only language Leon understands?)
Fanny and Edith at school are walking around somewhere else… They are talking about Nando’s virtues… Edith comes up with an idea but before she can expand on it they see the brawl crowd. Edith tells Fanny its Leon and Lenin. Fanny and Edith break it up. Fanny nags at Leon that this is not the way to fix things. Fanny walks away angry. She gets upset and tells Edith it can’t be like this.
At the house, Ana and Fernando also talk about Fanny and Lenin. Ana says maybe Fanny is not into him but he is not indifferent to her.
Somewhere in the fields there is a wooden cage where Manuela, with her face painted silver, is vowing to get away from mundane society. The leader is responding in prayer for Manuela. Bruno is nearby hearing it all and making faces like he is confused. He is telling himself this is a dream (of his?). Just before Manuela is to be turned over to the other spatial community… (what will Bruno do? Stay tuned)
In Lasc kitchen, we have subway PST, all kids except Fanny are eating subs and soda…
Diego and Nico are getting released from hospital. Jenn and Natalia and Fernando are with them. Nico says goodbye to Marlene his nurse. She will miss him.
Nico and Diego arrive to the house to a welcome greeting by Ana and the kids. All the kids have bright color wigs like clowns. They have wigs for Nico, Natalia, Jen and Diego too. Luz looks lovely with her orange curly wig. Ana asks how Diego is. He says ready to play ‘clare de lune’ here on the piano (he’s jk of course) Fernando with a Bozo clown wig tells them Bruno went to try to get Manuela back.
