Antes muerta que Lichita #24 Friday 10/23/15: Luciana and Augusto keep blackmailing each other with info... Luciana openly, Augusto not so much... Roberto and Alicia are getting some alone time in L.A.
Nelson comments that she won’t make it (de esta no la libra)
Gumaro (“Tio Gumis”) playing with Mateo in front of Roberto at the orphanage.
Lo Nuevo:
Luciana still can’t stand the itch… whines to the doctor ‘why me?? Why me?? Tell me!! Why me??’ She does admit she has had this many times before … (its obviously an allergic reaction). When Doctor leaves Luciana swears that Lichita and Elsa will pay for having tried to poison her.
Gumaro leaves Mateo and Roberto alone to say goodbyes… Mateo really wants to go to the beach on the trip with Roberto… Roberto says can’t take him now but promises to take him to the beach very soon, will be back in a couple days.
Roberto swears he is working hard so they will be together and have everything they need. Love you. Love you more. More!
Chuchette and Nestor in office are celebrating that Luciana will be gone for a few days, they wish it were a few months. They also talk about who poisoned Luciana… Nelson not ready to write off Lichita…this would prove she is not as dumb as they thought.
Roberto calls Gumaro from airport… tries to make Gumaro promise he won’t get in trouble. Waiting for Luciana to arrive. Gumaro asks for a souvenir, Roberto says not even a keyring.
Roberto hears what sounds like Lichita, not Luciana, arrive. HE is surprised.
Luciana is staring at her mirror mirror saying she is disfigured… Daphne comes in to mock her some more, do you want me to arrange for your funeral or your trip to Patagonia? See what it feels like now? You who mock me on my weight all the time, now you look ugly. Luciana can’t hold back the rebute that she will get over it in a few days, but Daphne won’t. Daphne leaves feeling down in the dumps.
Lichita explains to Roberto that Luciana can’t go with him because she got an allergic reaction. Lichita came to the airport to go with him because of his text message (which Luciana wrote, not him). She is about to leave, but he won’t let her... he winks at her when Luciana calls his cell phone. Roberto asks Lichita if she is sure sure that she had nothing to do with what happened to Luciana. She swears.
Nacho is heading to work… he is sad that he can’t spend as much time with his family. Elsa says tomorrow Saturday we will spend more time together. Nacho is still not sold on Lichita not having to withstand more bullying at the office.
At Los Angeles, CA…
Lichita and Roberto are sitting next to each other… they are at the hotel getting the room(s). the lady asks if they need one or two rooms… LIchita reluctantly says they need DOS!! When the lady leaves they sit back on the same spots, looking very ackward. They review their agenda for the day, which is in Lichita’s cell phone.
Magos is watching the telenovela. The guy jumps on the girl in bed…
In the kitchen, Elsa is doing her numbers… she gets happy about how much money she made on first day. Ximena is cheering her up… but Magos comes by and spoils the good mood.
Bea calls the saint virgins when she sees Luciana… of course Luciana changes the target of conversation to Daphne and suggests to Bea that she and ‘mi tiito’ should send Daphne to a nun internship school so she could get the right education. Bea promises she will talk to Augusto about it. Then she basically makes Luciana get on her knees and pray together. Luciana complains about her itch so Bea heads to her own bedroom to pray for the both of them. Luciana whines that she is getting bored to death.
Gumaro is having fun on phone with Roberto asking how come they had the substitution between Luciana and Lichita… Gumaro repeats to Roberto that maybe Lichita will be a tougher bone than Luciana. Roberto is afraid he will burn since he is playing with fire. Gumaro asks about losing his relationship with Licha? Yup. Gumaro reminds to him that they both are adults… when there is passion, any spark will lite the fire. Gumaro is right when he tells Roberto that he is afraid to really fall for Lichita.
Lichita is talking to her own romantic counselor, Elsa. Lichita keeps saying that she and Roberto came to do work and work alone. Even in the remote remote case anything happened, she promises Elsa that she would never let anything happen that would harm her. Elsa sighs relief. Lichita says she can’t find decent clothes. Elsa is about to promise she will help pay for a new work wardrobe for Lichita. Lichita reluctant to get in debt… Elsa says if you will go represent Iconika, need to dress and look the part. If you don’t like what you are wearing, use your imagination to change it a bit. You are a creative editor, no?
At another hotel, Sandra and Augusto are going at it… or maybe this is Sandra’s apartment. She is really begging (a bit too much begging for my taste) for some…. Augusto kisses her… but he gets in pain suddenly. Sandra says this (what he went through) is more serious than he said… HE just leaves.
Luciana is texting… then choses to call instead. She calls her dad. As he answers and Luciana sees Augusto walk in the door, she tells her dad to offend him and undermine his creative talents… (she is faking just because of Augusto, but her dad is really hurt by her words) … Then we get some blah blah between Augusto and Luciana… she nags about her rashes… asks him if he is recovered… Luciana asks him how come he almost died from wounds from an accident that looked more like bullet wounds.
At the LA hotel, Lichita and Roberto are walking together and he tells her she looks good… then this very feisty customer or potential customer walks right into them… this guy leaves our Fausto back in the dust as far as loudness and feistiness.
Luciana keeps trying to dig Augusto for information about his supposed ‘accident’. And Draco even faked being him… the nurse commented that his wound seemed more like a bullet wound. Tell me what mess are you into. Did someone try to mug you? She is now leaning on him on the couch and hurting him… did it have to do with something illegal? Or do you think I have a very creative imagination? (fantasia desbordada)
Now we see some commercial including Gumaro and Mayrin Villanueva. New part of lichita.com called Las Gumaradas.
(hurricane report… category 5… looks really bad around Puerto Vallarta coast… lets pray for everyone there … this is the area where the hotel Ana and Fernando spent the weekend in MCET is located)
The feisty client has taken Lichita and Roberto to a colorful texmex restaurant in L A. they are talking business but we can’t hear anything… Lichita and Roberto keep smiling at each other.
Augusto admits his wound was from a bullet but the police could not find enough evidence to determine that it truly had been a bullet. Luciana guesses he had to give out money left and right to make the evidence disappear. Augusto asks how much more will her discretion/silence will cost him. Luciana says she has enough with him supporting her at Iconika. And if you just listened to my convo with my dad, you will realize I prefer you 100 times to the loser of my dad. She has delivered her poison so she takes off whispering through her teeth that her rashes are color coded with her pajamas…
Augusto makes it to the bedroom only to get another woman wanting to talk to him. Bea is trying to be seductive for him while she tells him about Daphne behaving more rebellious and uncontrollable than ever… she suggests they send her to a boarding school… he agrees. Bea keeps doing some weird seductive moves on him… but at the same time saying it is a sin… (who understands her?)
The client has left and Lichita and Roberto talk about the deal… he does tell her that Hispanics are a huge influence in US. (true)… They keep trying to talk business and their fingers find each other’s… suddenly they both pull back… then do some small talk about how the family is doing. Lichita then brings up the VIdeomatic day… that day some really nice things happened, right? (she remembers their kiss and we hear the theme song…) He says they better get the check and leave. He leaves to go find the waiter.
In bed in pajamas, Augusto keeps trying to get away from Bea… he runs to door but she catches him there… (keeps talking about sin … ???) she says sometimes the wishes of the flesh are not so sinful or bad… he keeps pushing her off… his cell phone rings, saving him…
Luciana in her room is remembering her words to her dad and regretting it… or at least trying to figure how she will apologize to him… She calls his phone but her mom answers… she says her dad is depressed for what she told him and whines that she is the one that has to deal with his depression.
Back in master, Bea is now playing with the curtains while he is in bed trying to go to sleep. She suggests she give him a massage and instantly is all over him.
Luciana tells her mom that she won’t let her mom make her feel guilty … mom says he is painting to try to get over his depression. Mom tells her … well, tries to because Luciana insists they won’t make her feel guilty and hangs up on her mother… (wow!)
Bea whines to Augusto that he never lets her have some often enough, and if they did it often enough it would be better… ‘but you never want to… sometimes it looks like you don’t even like it… at least with me’. (and why are you with this guy if you own half of the company??) He tells her she is fine in bed… she says she can prove it once more… nut he rolls her off him and gets up.
Daphne picks up Luciana’s cell phone when it rings and catches Luciana’s mom whining to her about tha authorities in Argentina looking for her because of the engagement ring she stole from the Duke (she also says 'by the way dont even think about returning to Argentina')… Suddenly Luciana comes out of the bathroom and rants at Daphne for having her phone.
Roberto and Lichita are walking away from restaurant. Lichita is worried about Roberto having two different moods or personalities with her… one is almost totally indifferent to her as if they were strangers and the other one is more interested, texts her nice stuff, and kisses her and sweet talks in her ear… Roberto comes up with the excuse that they are tired and tomorrow will be a long day… Lichita gets the sign and says good nite and leaves him alone whispering to himself … flower… messages… kiss… (indiferent? … no way jose! I would say more like smitten or… even enchanted)
(more reports about hurricane Patricia being the strongest ever on record for Mexico)
Daphne tells Luciana that her parents are asleep… so if you plan a new scheme against me … Luciana brags that she is the daughter they always wanted and they will listen to her… no one loves you (Daphne). Daphne says ‘we will see’ and leaves. Luciana can’t wait to see Daphne locked up in a nun boarding school…
Roberto is in front of Lichita’s room door… changes his mind, runs away but returns… is about to knock on the door… knocks and runs back away… Lichita opens the door and wonders who knocked… Roberto comes back and admits he was the one who knocked. HE admits he is confusing her very much with his behavior but swears he is not doing it intentionally. They get really close and Lichita pulls away… Lichita is trying to talk about basically the weird roller coaster he has her riding in... she says he probably thinks she came on to him too hard/fast at the airport... he knows she wants to talk about why he did not hold her hand at the table or what happened at the video recording, including their kiss(es), but he has to say the words for her… Lichita says she wants to make it clear that if she came with him was so they would get to know each other and talk more…
Daphne is talking to her dad… she tells him about the phone conversation about a ‘engagement ring’ they are looking for her about in Argentina. Daphne says her mom would not believe her but he would, right? He assures her he does. But then ‘shooes’ her away. Daphne leaves. Draco comes in. Augusto tells him that just like he was suspecting, Luciana left some unfinished business about some engagement with a Duke in Argentina. He says she thinks she has him eating out of her hand… what she is not suspecting is that he is supporting her only to use her later for his own purposes.
Roberto asks Alicia to say what she wants… Alicia tells him she wasn’t thinking about them making love (this gets a small smile smirk on him)… blah blah… Roberto tells Alicia that he is not confused one iota. He likes her… he admits that if he hugs her it won’t be enough. If he kisses her, how can he resist himself later? "You have no idea what you are provoking in me…" (they both pull close and get into a very heated kiss). They stop only to stare at each other a few moments and then pull back together into a very slow but passionate kiss… (light effects and all).
Previews: Alicia and Roberto are laying in bed staring at each other but are clothed, not sure whether it happened or not…
Luciana tells Roberto she will get payback.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #43 Thu 10/22/15 (Mex 59-60)
Hi folks! I'm sneaky two shoes and I will be your temporary fill in recapper for today. You may know me from commenting once on a Muchacha recap in the first week and then disappearing for the next few weeks? months? I've lost track. Life stuff happened and I got behind but I planned to comment when I'd caught up and actually knew what was going on. Well I've just caught up and now I'm doing a recap, so, that's something.
So jumping right in, Sonia's mom is in her bedroom advising her at the top of her voice to switch the DNA test results if necessary, when Os comes in, presumably from exercising, since he is in workout clothes, and wants to know what they are talkin' 'bout huh? huh?

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres #73 Thu 10-22-15: Three Cheers for Vivi!
- MD ignores Maleny, who tries to keep MD from seeing Max in the hospital. She pries Mal off of her on her way to the elevator, and pushes her onto her delgada nalgas and smiles with satisfaction as the elevator door closes. I cheer!
-In front of Max’s room, MD has to face down Maleny, Ivana, Claudio and Alma, who all try to prevent her from seeing Max, while throwing her supposed misdeeds in her face. MD tells them all the real deal—she did not cheat on Max, Dan RAPED her, Julian is not the father of her baby- Dan is, and she’s going to send him to jail for the rape! Max hears the commotion and hears everything MD said. He gingerly makes his way to the door, opens it, and tells everyone he’s going to help MD put Dan in jail. MD rushes into Max’s arms, and all is well with the world.

Antes muerta que Lichita #22 Wednesday 10/21/15
On we go with the story . . .
Augusto arrives home and is trying to sneak in very quietly in spite of still being in so much pain from his accident. It is bad for him but funny for us when Beatriz sees him and gives him a great big hug from the front. Beatriz cannot stop praising Luciana and her work at Icónika. Just then Dafne comes in and is so glad to see her dad she gives him a great big hug from the back. He is sandwiched in pain between the two of them with Beatriz asking what is wrong as he is wincing in pain.
At Icónika, Braulio is trying to get the videomatic shoot ready. It is chaotic. Roberto is getting impatient hoping he knows what he is doing when he turns and sees Alicia who has been made up by Marcelo. He and Braulio are both in shock with how good she looks. Braulio takes his team and leaves Roberto to give Alicia the third degree about what she did. It just was a little touch up that Marcelo gave her. Roberto tries to ferret out info about her having boyfriend(s) (he is still jealous thinking that she and Braulio are together). She says that is all her personal business. She has to go check on things but keeps running into everything (she is so flustered) on the way out of the studio.
Augusto is explaining to his family that he was in a taxi accident in New York so he is suffering from some internal injuries but nothing too bad eventhough he did have to spend the night in the hospital. He asks them to please not squeeze him so hard. If Beatriz would have known, she would have prayed for him. He needs to go to the office ASAP and Dafne wants to go with him but that is a "no go". Beatriz and Dafne are left on the couch. Cold move: Dafne puts her head on her mother's shoulder so Beatriz moves over to get it off.
Magos is at home when the phone rings and it is a debt collection agency. She hangs up. The debt collector Vidriato calls back so she puts the blender on so he can't hear her. She argues with him some more and even calls herself "Alicia." He seems to be enjoying their interaction. She has a nice voice, too bad about her character. Would she do a survey about customer service? She is left looking at the phone when "elevator" music starts to play.

Antes muerte que Lichita #21 Tuesday 10/20/15: Beto Begins to See the Light
Back at Lichita's place, her dad Nacho is knee-deep in the mopes and going nowhere fast. He's gloomy about not being able to be the sole provider for the family, etc. His wife is sweet and awfully patient and eventually convinces him to come inside.
Beatriz has discovered the absence of the money Luciana stole, and blames it on the maid. Luciana catches Daphne looking through her stuff and seizes the opportunity to pin the blame on her. The two of them (Luci and Daphne) have a very satisfying bickering/girlfight. Luci calls Daphne a goth piñata (surprisingly creative, coming from her) and a green newbie who will never compare to a "diablesa" like Luci.
When Luci gloats about the marvelous, beautiful, pure love like the one she's found with her new guy, an incredulous Daphne asks "who is he, Hitler or Lord Voldemort?"
I give Daphne the win on that exchange, but Beatriz isn't convinced. She rails on our poor goth piñata for the way she dresses, her music, and the theft, and threatens to send her off to some sort of correctional facility (boot camp?). We also get a look at Daphne's social media/dating site profile, where she calls herself "Daphne Dark."
At the bachelor pad, Gumaro laughingly congratulates Beto on the date (even if he was blackmailed into it) with a bon bon like Luci. Beto grumbles and admits he's still hung up on that kiss with Lichita.
Lichita yells at Magos for telling their parents about the bullying at Ikonico, and also for just being a terrible person (hanging around all day, not getting a job, the shady financial schemes, etc.) and threatens to convince their parents to throw her out if she doesn't shape up!
Back at the office, Luci is gloating to Lichi about the marvelous date and the "sublime" kisses she shared with Beto, and also tells her that she won't keep her promise to help Elsa get clearance to sell snacks in the workplace. Lichita looks a little sick at the news about Beto and walks into at least 4 things on her way out of the office. Later though, she does manage to end-run around Luci to Sandra and the office manager and get permission for her mom, so that's good!
Luci's awful friend comes in, giving Luci yet another opportunity to gloat and crow about her marvelous, passionate date with Beto. Also, she says, Lichita is totally crushing on Roberto, so let's hatch an evil plot to make Lichita think her crush is requited. As it turns out, it's not a very complicated plot: Luciana tells Beto to pretend to have a thing for Lichita (not hard, obviously, because he actually does), and the friend tells Lichita that Beto has a thing for her. That's it.
Meanwhile, Lichita is actually having a great time chatting and laughing and being a little productive (so weird... people actually occasionally doing work in a novela workplace? what is this?) with Braulio (mr. hipster). Beto sees all this (including an out-of-context romantic profession of love from Braulio's opera -of course he has an opera, he's a hipster-) and gets totally jealous. He trips Braulio in the hallway and walks into stuff just like Lichita did earlier. That's cute.

Lo Imperdonable #109 Fri 10/16/15 RIP Veronica Prado Castelo
We take a detour to Pueblo Nuevo, where we find Manny getting his drunk on and recalling his recent rendezvous with Virginia. Oh snap. Manny wants Virginia to be his woman.
Still in Pueblo Nuevo, we are now taken to Raymunda and Joaquin's new home where we find the two of them cuddling up in bed and talking about Blanquita. They both hope that Arturo will keep his word. Joaquin trusts Blanquita and considers her to be responsible. Raymunda says that Blanquita is young and at the age of making mistakes. Joaquin points out that you can make mistakes at any age. And OG is a good example, because had OG been more firm with Manny, then things would be so different now. Say what? Wasn't he just saying that Manny is how he is because he was born with a rotten soul? Continuity, continuity, continuity. Raymunda says that she had always believed in Manny and can now see that he took out his claws when he had the chance to attack his own family. Joaquin tells her that the baddest ambitions can destroy entire families.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #39 Fri 10/16/15 (Mex 53) Fiorella and the Three Stooges
Thugs finish Sergio's beat down with a warning and knock him out for good measure. Julieta finds him on the sidewalk, a passing couple answer her cries for help and call an ambulance.
You know what? There is no other thing to call this man except Assvaldo. RPC on the jerk trying to rap to Alina, the Psychologist at her office, showing up unannounced and absolutely disrespecting her professional and personal space. He even comes back later with a present. My pissivity at her is almost as much as that I have for him. She doesn't seem stern enough and while she does unsmilingly close the door in his stupid face, on the other side she seems to smile subtly and look wistful. He's a butt hole! What are you looking wistful about?

We leave off with the young couple telling the social worker what they discovered while spying on Roberto. They have no evidence to back up what they are saying. The no nonsense social worker
tells them these are very grave accusations and warn them they could run into problems if they continue to take things into there own hands.
Lichita works on the Oki Oki meeting at home and prays that everything goes well tomorrow. Mom interrupts her thoughts to worry over Magos. Lichita chides her for once again helping Magos by giving her money for the tanda scandal she got herself into. Not wanting to argue Elsa changes the subject to discuss how bold Lichita was the day the police intruded into their homes. Elsa also also wants to know how Roberto is doing. Lichita becomes uncomfortable and say they have nothing but a work relationship. Elsa is confused because she confessed a short while ago to being in luurve. Oh look at the time...time for bed and with that excuse Lichita escapes Elsa's further interrogations about Roberto.
Gummaro and Roberto talk about Lichita and the kiss. Roberto does not have time for woman. Gummaro tries to convince him otherwise. He has been focuses a lot on work these days and he also needs to tend to his heart. Wouldnt it be nice if Mateo has a mom.....

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #37 Wed 10/14/15 (Mex 49) Them's the brakes
Aitana's parents showed up for dinner surprisingly early in the episode. They seem…ok. Aitana's dad, at her request, has prepared a plan for how to improve the Monterrey plant. Why Pedro doesn't throw a fit about how he's got it under control is beyond me. Pedro and Eloisa spend most of the dinner praising Aitana and making Fi incredibly uncomfortable. She finally runs out of the dining room.

Antes muerta que Lichita #17 Wednesday 10/14/15
Roberto and Alicia are outside the motel and are being spied on by the Vidal's (the young couple in the car). Roberto is happy that Alicia is changing: she is not letting Chuchette and Néstor boss her around. Well, it was Roberto who told her to learn to eat or be eaten. She asks how Gumaro is doing and Roberto says his illness is advancing little by little but he does not want to talk about it. They get into the car so Lichita can tell him where to park it. The Vidal's are wondering where they are going. Ángel Vidal says it looks like they are not going in and she looks like a decent girl. Marta Vidal says a decent girl would never be at a place like this. She makes Ángel follow them in their car.
Inside the "meeting room" in the "No tell motel" there is a stripper pole to go along with the red furniture. They all start brainstorming so that they can come up with a proposal that is worth a "10". Braulio wants to go retro, vintage, in black and white; Brisa has some graphics already done; but Luciana and her bad ideas will not be ignored. The idea of "angels" is so boring for her she wants something red hot like "Light your passion on our little cloud mattresses." Roberto cuts off that idea saying how Sandra liked the ideas of angels,seraphims and cherubs. Suddenly from overhead there is the sound of a squeaking mattress and a moving bed that poor Alicia mistakes for some worker hammering away and interrupting their meeting. Néstor and Luciana cannot believe how stupid she is. They all start chuckling. Alicia tells us she could not believe she was that naïve or could she?
Outside, Marta sees someone else go in the room and cannot understand what you call people like that. Her husband says a "threesome". She wants to know how Ángel would know about that. He has just heard about it.

Replay/Refrito: Ursula, Arango and Jacinto discuss their plans to take over Vera Duval and make it even more profitable. Maleny taunts Arango about hanging around Ursula for YEARS, but NEVER bedding her—she calls him and Ursula cold blooded.

In his apartment, Max explains Ivana’s journey back to the light to MD, her willingness to testify against Dan, and the scheme Ursula and Dan proposed to baby-crazy Ivana to give her MD’s baby.

Antes muerta que Lichita #16b Tuesday 10/13/15: I made a redundant post but melinama says I should post it anyway!
Lichita is definitely enjoying being more assertive: she gets the grocery store boss to release Elsa's paycheck (but she's not getting hired again... the boss's jackass grandson is mostly in charge now), and later talks the cops out of her home when they come with the furious neighbors to question Magos about her skeevy neighborhood savings scheme.
In a cute aside, Lichita says "God doesn't hear people who don't speak up.... And I'm not shutting up anymore."

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #35 Mon 10/12/15 (Mex 47) You Got Balls? I Got a Ball Buster! or Granny Throws Down the Gauntlet!
Remember Vitto bounching little Beto, Diana's baby, on his knee? Well, Diana's mom did NOT spill the beans but kept up with the cover story that Beto is Diana's sick sister's baby. Vitto flashes back to Adela telling him the sister story is a farce. He asks her name and they both say different names but recover that she prefers one name to the other. The sister is in the hospital and Diana's mom wants to go visit her and has nobody else to watch little Betto. Vitto is fine with that, Diana gulps like a guppy. Diana's mom leaves!
At El Rancho, Osvaldo herds Sonia into their bedroom, pushes her onto the bed and digs her out about not telling him about the pregnancy. He flings her coat at her. They are going to a lab to get a DNA test NOW! He growls again that he will kill her if the baby is Fabio's!
What's this? Fiorella up on a horse this bright sunny morning? Gigi begs her not to leave. No! Fifi needs to be alone. Quina is watching the tearful scene. Fifi asks Quina to take care of Gigi and Fifi rides away!
Aitana and Pedro on the sofa. Pedro is huffing, sighing and frowing and not looking at Aitana. She swears she had no idea of Eloisa's intention but would love it if they were together again. She begs him, for the umpteenth time, to give her a chance. Pedro stands up abruptly. He doesn't have time for this, he tells her: he's got to go talk to Granny!

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres- Looking for a replacement
I admit that at first when I began writing it felt short term but then I began learning more and more I realized that you are either on a podium or you are not on a podium at all.
During my short term absence I have been fairly surprised that many people are eager to help me out just to not disappoint our readers. . If you can find anyone willing to do it than I would be most pleased.
Participating on other projects is very unlikely but I will definitely keep mark of the blog because the people on it are unlike anything I have experienced on the Web. There are many shows getting released that I am looking forward to such as Pasion Y Poder , Gran Hotel, Amor De Barrio and Corazon Que Miente so I am definitely not out of this world even if it it sounds weird for a man . I have learned a lot from writing here and have enjoyed it very much.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #34 Fri 10/9/15 (Mex 46) ¡Qué estupidez!
Pedro and Fiorella reconcile and share kisses and promises in the precarious, flowered row boat of love and decide to announce their betrothal at a family gathering Pedro has called. Roxi finds out, tells Aitana who tells Eloisa. The family is all gathered: Sergio, Sonia, Osvaldo, Freddie, Roxi, Julieta and decrepit Queen Bee insists Aitana come as well. First, Freddie usurps the meeting to announce Sonia's pregnancy. Congrats and joy all around. Osvaldo has to be prompted to hug Sonia after admitting he didn't know. Through clenched teeth he whispers to Sonia he will kill her if the baby isn't his. Pedro and Fiorella had tentatively entered the room but retreat to just outside the living room at this announcement and Fiorella asks Pedro if he thinks it's really Osvaldo's baby. Pedro says he doesn't know and is thrown totally off whatever game he thought he had. Sergio insists Pedro congratulate and hug his cousin, Sonia, and he does with his brow all knit and his eyes vacant. Aitana insists he tells them why he's gathered the family together.

Antes Muerta que Lichita #13 Thursday 10/8/15: The Episode Where Lichita has Finally had Enough!
Alternative Title: Luciana Goes Through the Worst Day of Her life while Viewerville Revels in her setbacks.
Great episode so lets jump right in!
Luciana is somewhat impressed that Lichita figured out her fabulous tastes so quickly. Well Lichita is just soooo grateful towards Luciana for getting her job back. Honestly, she just hopes that sooner rather than later they could become friends. Luciana appears to think very hard but then rejects Lichita flat out. Luciana could never become friends with someone so low on the totem pole Puh-leeze! Luciana wants Lichita to work on gathering all there is to know about the Shoe Campaign (Grimwali??). Lichita sarcastically also offers to freely give her ideas and phrases in this report to which the ever confident Luciana rejects. Puh-leeze! What does someone like Lichita know about an elegant, sophisticated, shoe company like Grimwali(??).

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres, Capitulo 63 Thu 10/8/15: Weasels Get Their Way...Or Do They? (Also: Ivana sees the light?!)
Rewind on…
- Adrian going over Max’s predicament. Clearly I wasn’t paying attention last night, but as Vivi and Anon207 pointed out, the severity of Dan’s injuries weighs heavily on whether or not Max stays in lock up or can pay a fine for the awesome beatdown he gave Dan. If the doctor signs off on Dan’s injuries being worse than they are, then it’s up to Dan to drop the charges. (Meaning Max would be totally screwed.)
- Claudio trying to convince Dr. Medina to tell him what went down with Ursula and Hector’s death. He promises Ursula won’t find out.
- Ivana telling Jacinto to hit the road and Jacinto threatening to kill Dan as revenge. Ivana tells him where Dan is.
- Dan claiming his beatdown was all part of his plan to take Max down. Now he’s got Max and MD over a barrel.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #33 Thu 10/8/15 (Mex 45)
Anyhoodle...the recap. It's not even half-assed today. It's quarter-assed.
The super-duper condensed, hellashelle-patented short version:
- Fi cries about marrying Vito and about Pedro sleeping with Sonia and giving Aitana a ring.
- Pedro tells Fi he loves her and will fight for their love. Then he asks Fi if she will, too. (Um. I'm having flashbacks of the repetitious Gata over here....)
Benito drives Fi to her funereal wedding dress fitting.
Vito is there waiting with Raymundo. Vito talks to Ray about Fi. Is not so sure Fi loves him. The fact that she has not arrived for the fitting speaks volumes. Vito is canceling the wedding and the fitting when Fi finally arrives. It's been almost 12 hours and I'm still shaking my head. Vito is thrilled. This would have been a perfect time for him to keel over from a massive heart attack because of the shock, but the writers didn't see it my way. Vito wants to stay for the fitting, but Fi and the designer convince him that's bad luck.
The back story? Benito spent a lot of time trying to convince Fi not to honor her ridiculous promise. Fi told Benito about seeing Pedro "give" that ring to Aitana. That's why she's marrying Vito. She was crazy to think she could have Pedro. hmmm. The way I'm remembering it, there's very little logic to what she said. I'm forgetting something important, I'm sure. Weigh in patio.
So Pedro asks Benito to do him a solid.

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres Capitulo 62 Wed 10/7/15 Discussion Page - Mortal Kombat!!
UPDATE: Recap courtesy of Vivi in DC. Thank you very much!
- Replay of the brutal, but oh so satisfying beatdown of Daniel by Max. Ursula and Arango pull Dan’s bloody and unconscious body from the fountain, as Ursula wails that Max KILLED him and orders Isidro to call an ambulance. Max, realizing what he might have done and coming to his senses, tries to help Dan, but Ursula shoves him away, screaming at him. Maleny arrives homes and runs up to add to the screeching and blame throwing at Max and MD. Both Max and MD appear in shock, but hold each other close.
- The ambulance and police later arrive. Dan is taken away in a stretcher, and Max is taken away by the police in handcuffs. Maleny keeps berating him and MD all the way to the squad car, but MD and Max don’t hear her. They share and unbroken and meaningful gaze, until his police car is out of sight. MD follows to the police station, where, after finding out the severity of the charges against Max, she calls Claudio.

Antes muerta que Lichita #12 Wednesday 10/7/15
Lichita regains consciousness in the emergency room to her mother Elsa asking how she is. She had gone looking for Lichita because she was late and was the one who found her. Surprise, surprise: Magos is also there. When Elsa saw that everything including the new briefcase had been stolen from Lichita she signed with the lawyer who offered to help them. Lichita asks: so we even owe more money? They sure do. Elsa says that Magos will be taking care of that particular debt but Magos is still insisting on paying for it with her mother's check that they should go and get.
At Augusto's house, he, Beatriz, Dafne and Luciana are all gathered together. He is seated on his red armchair with Beatriz on one side and Dafne on the other. Augusto's new angle to get rid of Luciana is that she might be an impostor. How is he to know??? her passport could even be fake. Luciana cannot understand how he could not trust her. She is a Toledo y Mondragón. Talk to her parents. Do a DNA test. Beatriz jumps to her defense and wins.
Back at the emergency room they are getting ready to leave and Elsa is giving Magos and Lichita the "do not tell your father what is going on because we do not want to upset him" lecture. As a matter of fact he calls Elsa on her cell phone but she does not answer.
Roberto and Gumaro are spending their evening at their "model" apartment and Roberto is actually studying advertising. He has a real book and is learning the definition of certain terms like: spot, copy, branding, etc. He takes a break and quizzes Gumaro on these terms for the fun of it. They love these word games.

Oh, good grief, Fi…of course Pedro isn't interested in Aitana! He jokes that he doesn't know who Aitana is. They're back to making plans about when/how to tell everybody. But Sonia has already headed back inside, so have fun with that, kids. Aw, we get so many parting kisses. *sigh* I'm taking that as a bad sign.
Gael and Gianna are talking about his visit with the psychologist. And how maybe it's not so weird to tell a total stranger everything about yourself, 'cause he told Gianna a lot of stuff when they'd barely met. They roll around with each other in the grass, but we are denied any lip action. Bummerrrrrrrrr!
