El Hotel de los Secretos #23, 2/25/16 Thursday: Lupe Gets His Mojo Back; Angela Gets Some of Her Own
WHERE IS PIANO MAN? I MISS HIM AND HIS DOGS
Since Lupe was the best part of the show, let's start with him. Lupe is still moping around the kitchen after he's put himself out for a gala dinner to impress epicurean gourmand Don Javier Congora (Alfie's uncle, in case we've forgotten). Angela observes. She asks what's wrong? Lupe answers, nothing, or rather, he says, "What is happening is that nothing happens. (Que pasa es que nada pasa--ISBIS) She makes him follow her up to the dining room. She shows him the empty plates. What does he see? Dirty dishes, he answers. No, she replies, they are empty plates. She rattles off all the entrees he prepared. [I'll give you a list of them tomorrow.] Where is the food? She continues, it is gone-eaten-finished. You should be proud. He gives her a quick kiss on the cheek (thanks, Vivi). Then she lets him go. She stays behind reflecting on his triumph.
The next day he's still moping in the kitchen when Angela comes rushing in to tell him Don Javier is on his way down to see him. Don J is gushing and effusive. He'd like to stay longer and discuss recipes but he has to rush to catch his train. He hands Lupe his card and says we'll communicate later. He would like Lupe's advice on menus for some of his grand affairs. Lupe is left speechless, except for a "Gracias," prodded out of him by Angela. She's beaming as he turns toward her and she promptly invades his personal space and busses him on the cheek. Surprised by her own initiative, she turns and leaves. Lupe indicates to the kitchen maid watching she is to forget what she saw.
Next time Angela passes by the kitchen, she sees him engaged, full of energy, sniffing the fresh fish and giving instructions to all the kitchen staff.

Pasión y poder, Episode 93, Thursday, February 25, 2016: Got milk?
Only the lowlifes are smiling these days. Things are going well for Chimp Boy and Franco. Humberto is enjoying himself too, though we didn't get to chuckle with him tonight. Jorge has been looking cockier lately. (Okay, Clara and Justino – the only unambiguously good guys in the story – are happily in love. Do we care? Seriously?) But everyone else is wallowing in the Slough of Despond. So let's take a look at each sad story tonight, not scene by choppy scene, but character by sappy character:
On the home front, Arturo finds himself confronted with a powerful female triumvirate. Regina, blaming her father for her breakup with David, has now allied herself with Nina and Daniela (who, by the way, are looking a little better these days in their almost, but not quite mother-daughter dresses). Regina wants to leave Grupo Montenegro, but Nina convinces her to stay and keep an eye on Arturo from the inside.

Antes muerta que Lichita #107 Wednesday 2/24/16. "Alicia's Conscience Returns"
After Augusto's declaration of looooove, Alicia says she now knows why she got the award. Augusto insists she got it on her own. His feelings had nothing to do with it. Augusto asks her not to close the door on him. He wants her to let him win her heart. She does not know what to say. In that case, he says it is better to not say anything. Tomorrow they will be back at work as if nothing happened. He pushes her trophy to her. Congratulations! Alicia is very somber through all of this. The expression on her face does not change.
Sandra is sneaking around Icónika. She ends up in Augusto's office entering through the secret panel where she runs into Elías rummaging through Augusto's desk. They are both surprised by the other's presence. Elías wants to know if she is there looking for revenge on Augusto. Of course not she answers. She reminds him about how he always hated Augusto. Elías says he really does now because Augusto used him to frame Beatriz at the motel with the photos. Sandra is shocked. Fátima comes in and wants to know why they are in Augusto's office. It was locked. They make up a story that they heard something in the office (maybe an animal or Godzilla) so they went in to investigate. Elías and Sandra do their Godzilla imitation as they walk out. Fátima clearly does not believe them but does her own Godzilla imitation, too.

Premiere March 8: Sueño de Amor. Brief synopsis. Who's in?
Nandicta has said she'd like to recap this one. Other takers? Contact me at caray@mappamundi.com
Dream of Love tells the story of Esperanza and Ricardo and their desire to find each other again twenty years after living the intensity of first love. But today their lives are very different ...
Esperanza is a single mother and teacher in two different schools: in the exclusive Institute Palacios and also in the simple College Vasconcelos. She struggles every day to get ahead.
Meanwhile, in Los Angeles Ricardo is married to Tracy, a woman who puts puts her profession ahead of their children, Rodrigo and Selena. For this reason Ricardo is practically a "single" parent who must combine parenthood with his work as an agent of Interpol.
Life reunites them when Ricardo arrives, as an undercover agent, at Institute Palacios; he is following the trail of the terrible criminal "La Sombra".
Betty Monroe -- Esperanza Guerrero: a friendly, patient, fair and brave teacher. She is the mother and father at the same time and gives unreservedly to her family. She has dreams: to have her family improve its station in life, to build a school for poor children, and above all to see Richard, the love of her life, again.
Cristián de La Fuente -- Ricardo Alegría: the man who fought for the American dream and got it. He's an Interpol agent and the father of two wonderful children. But living with his wife Tracy has become untenable. Ricardo will have the good fortune to reunite with the love of his life. With patience and a lot of affection, they will establish a "reconstructed family" with all their children.
Carmen Salinas -- Margarita Manzanares: bold, cheerful and witty. She's a lively granny who understands technology. She always gives the right advice and wants to help her family find happiness. There is conflict with her daughter Silvana, director of the pompous Institute Palacios bombastic while Margarita runs the simple College Vasconcelos.
La sombra: a very dangerous international criminal, an art and jewel thief and jewels willing to do anything to get what he wants. He's been a nightmare not only for police but also for Ricardo and his family. He can even abandon his identity so nobody can catch him.
Sabine Moussier -- Tracy Kidman: Ricardo's capricious, impatient and selfish wife. For her the job comes first, she neglects her marriage and children. But as soon as she realizes Ricardo and his family can find happiness, she'll do what she can to become their nightmare. She is American and has little command of Spanish.
El Chapo de Sinaloa -- Jerónimo Durán: a very cheerful and hardworking bricklayer whose talent for singing may turn him into the builder of his own dream.

At the shoot with all the babies, Luci is aghast at all the little dwarves. Especially when Xuxette catches her holding one! Then when its mother/handler takes it away she cries a bit.
Sandra comes for her meeting with Alicia. Elias is happy to see her but she blows him off. At the meeting, Alicia rubs it in about how when she wanted her job back Sandra was mean. She says she'll be MUCH meaner in response.
Luci admits in a whisper to Beto that she's pregnant. Augusto, with his customarily impeccable timing for eavesdropping, overhears this and delights in the news!

Pasión y Poder Martes 2/23/16 #91
Chapter
91: Dirty Pool
The
most powerful thing about money is that it makes its owners feel they
are somehow superior to others. This is not limited to old money;
nouveau riches like Eladio and Nina are not immune and often they are
the biggest offenders and the worst snobs. Money can buy a great many
things, but character isn't one of them, especially when one has had
a poor example to follow. – D.D.

Un camino hacia el destino - synopsis in English
Starting at 6:30 pm tonight!! Anybody want to recap this one? Contact me at caray@mappamundi.comSetting: the hacienda of the Altamirano family. Fernando Altamirano (Red Gustavo), head of the family, is a widower and the father of Amelia (Lisette Morelos), the eldest daughter, and Mariana (Ana Patricia Rojo), the apple of his eyes.
Pedro Perez (Jorge Aravena) is gardener on the estate. He has secretly loved Amelia forever. But she's in love with Luis Montero (René Strickler), an ambitious young law student.
At the age of 18 Amelia gives herself to Luis and becomes pregnant. But Luis rejects her in order to marry Marissa Gomez Ruiz (Eugenia Cauduro), a widow millionaire banker. Somehow Don Fernando comes to believe the child Amelia is expecting is Pedro's - he throws both of them out of the house.
Pedro marries Amelia and for love of her assumes paternity of the child whom Amelia christens Luisa Fernanda (Paulina Goto). (Luisa for the real dad and Fernanda for the grandfather).
Luis and Marissa's wedding takes place quickly because she has to go to Spain for bank business. She ends up paying for Luis to study law in Spain.
Marissa has a son, Carlos Gomez Ruiz (Horacio Pancheri), who despite his young age is not deceived. He's always known Luis is a playboy who married his mother for money. This makes for an awful relationship between Luis and Carlos.
Years pass ... Luisa Fernanda is a beautiful young lady of 18, who is finishing high school and has two passions in life: she plays the violin beautifully though she's never studied it, and she loves gardening, which she learned from her father Peter.
A meeting led by fate makes Luis run over Fernanda, ending at the hospital where Carlos works ...

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #124 Monday, 2-22-16 The Grand Finale!!!!
Well, beloved MIVAC Patio Peeps, we've come to the end of our little
drama in Dos Rios and the beginning of a new life for Pedro and
Fiorella; Gianna and Gael. Let's see how it unfolded.
We are welcomed into the finale with the vintage clip from the original novela which morphs into the present day opening and the absolutely beautiful Pedro and Fiorella's theme, Adonde va Nuestro Amor.
We are flung immediately into the gasoline-soaked foyer where the prostrate Fidel lies, still unconscious. Suddenly we see Pedro wrestling Freddie for the lighter and he seems to be having a hard time subduing her. There is an awkward edit or either I blinked for a long time but instantaneously Freddie has been apprehended by several dudes. She curses the family as she is dragged out. Everyone is there holding their noses and complaining about how the place reeks of gasoline. There is light chatter about how Freddie should have been in prison and a freshly showered Fidel is briefly scolded about the lax security. He apologizes and offers the excuse of the family emergency. Pedro excuses him. Pilar frets that Freddie will come back. The scene is rounded out as the family announces they're all going back to bed and P-yew! it smells in there. Simoneta gets to clean the whole mess up as they scurry away.
The next morning, the whole family gathers in the spic and span foyer to bid Fiorella, Pedro and Sergio arrivederci as they head off to Maretea, Italy!

El Hotel de los Secretos #20, 2/22/16 Monday: The mystery head-bonker is revealed.
Julio heads toward the village to give his testimony to Ayala. Isabel follows, uninvited. Garrido hears his approach and takes aim, but Cristina bonks Garrido on the head. (She's two for two now. She's becoming a specialist!)
Brother and sister are reunited. "Cristina! You're alive! You're alive!"
Isabel catches up, at first seeming a little unhappy to see her boyfriend hugging and kissing some woman - until she recognizes Cristina.
Back at the hotel, there's pandemonium in the kitchen. Lupe is a nervous wreck. Is it nervousness over today's guest of honor? Or is something else on his mind?
On the ground, Garrido is beginning to stir. Cristina has to hide. Julio has to go with her. Isabel tells them to go on ahead and promises to tell no one.

El Hotel de los Secretos #19, 2/19/16 Friday: A Big Secret is Revealed
A little refresher of where we left off Wednesday, Isabel newly released from the obligation to marry Diego, is running through the kitchen and out the door towards the woods with Julio in tow. He meets up with her to ask if she’s ok, she says better than ok, she’s freeeeeeee. She grabs his neck, pulls him close and they kiss. A long time.
He teases her, reminding her about the 40 centimeter rule, the distance they are supposed to keep apart, she says she’s never felt so close to anyone before. (insert heavy breathing here). But what about your family, he asks. She replies that if they don’t have the capacity to see his good heart and bravery, and how strong he is, and if they can’t see that his mere presence makes her a better person, then they aren’t her family.
He said he was taken by her the first time he laid eyes on her, she’s like a drink of water after being lost in the desert. Their happiness is overwhelming. She asks of Cristina, he tells her that there are still missing pieces he needs to find, but if she is with him he can continue on with more strength to handle them. She tells him she loves every piece of him, ooohhh she said it, and she would never ask him to stop because that would be asking him to stop being himself. Awwww. They kiss again to seal the deal. (I know I’m oohing and awwing a lot, but it was so nice).

Pasión y Poder Cap #89 Friday, Feb 19th 2016 I hope Erick chokes on those enchiladas
Nina confronts Julia for snatching her hubs from her by smacking her across the face after calling her a cualquiera (slut, tramp, whore, etc) of course.
Downtown, Erick's on the hot seat and his future is about to be decided. We find out that The Ratt's necklace has been disqualified as a piece of evidence. Pedro Tapia, the witness, now takes the stand, and must state whether or not Erick was the man who was arguing with The Ratt on the night of her extermination.
Julia denies the accusations. She's NOT a husband snatcher. Nina doesn't believe her and calls her out on the harm she's causing everyone, including her own offspring.
Tapia commits perjury and states that Erick isn't the man who was arguing with The Ratt on the night of her extermination. Detective is aghast at what he hears. Tapia states that the man he saw was shorter, fat, almost bald, and had an aquiline nose. Detective calls Tapia a BIG FAT LIAR. Judge reminds Tapia that perjury = many years in the pokey.
Nina tries to put Julia in her shoes. What if the roles were reversed and it was she (Nina) who was fooling around with Eladio. Julia says that if she knew and were sure that Eladio loved Nina then she (unlike Nina) would at least have the dignity to not lower herself by going to see Nina and smacking her around in her own home. Nina isn't so sure about that and honestly neither is this recapper. But Julia is sure that, that's what she'd do. Because she would have had put up with Eladio enough already to have to deal with Mrs. Purple Lips as well. Nina then accuses Julia of not caring if she's destroying the lives of their kids as long as she was able to be with Arturo.

Antes Muerta que Lichita #104 ALicia presents her angelic toilet paper campaign... but is it really hers??
Augie keeps
mocking Roberto that now he is basically deep in the mudd (too far inside the
deal to come out clean).
Alicia can’t
believe her family are rolling the red carpet for Valeria, the mother o the woman
who did her so much harm. Alicia talks to Ximena about this, they knock fists
saying they are successful gals.
Valeria is
eating with Luciana just outside the cafecito… Luciana is eager to tell Valeria
about the new campaign she is WORKING ON at the office. Valeria considers it refreshing after she had
been laying around doing nothing… Did Valeria just call Luciana lazy?
(floja)? Luciana keeps thinking
everything about Valeria and her new job is ‘third-worldly’. Valeria is so sad
to hear her daughter talk so frivolous. Valeria tells her she, on the contrary,
feels good working. She wishes Luciana
good luck with her other coffee brand campaign.
Luciana leaves. Valeria tries to apologize to the Gutierrez, they say no
need, Nacho is not so subtle, rather very straight in his criticism of Luciana.
The API old
guys are mocking Augie about Alex getting married WITH ANOTHER MAN. Roberto asks them how come they are so
informed when the campaign was targeted specifically to the internet and to a
very specific audience… Augie takes the
chance to slip away.
Alicia and
Augie are meeting in his office. He is
surprised to see that she is nervous… he does believe in her abilities. She says this campaign is very important and
there are also some family issues that have her a bit distracted but she
assures him she will figure it all out.
He keeps trying to get her to tell him more about the personal stuff. She
does slip that she feels like she doesn’t have so much in common with her
relatives anymore, that they don’t seem to appreciate all she has done for
them, and that makes her feel a bit guilty.
He encourages her to think of herself before others. HE says he too feels betrayed by the family
he once had worked so hard for. Alicia
backsteps and says what’s important is the presentation so she is heading to
give it one last pass. On her way out
she turns around and asks if he is ok, he responds with a deflated sigh, yeah I’m
always ‘alright’. She leaves.
We have a
product placement and commercial from Shushette telling Fatima about her
AWESOME Payless shoes. Fatima wants
SHushette to locate the reception girls for her.
Magos meets
with her friends again, she shares with them that her folks think she is
studying and at school. She briefly
considers ‘un acordeon’ (a cheat sheet). But she still has a little hope that
she will remember enough of the class to pass.
Fatima goes
to see Alicia and tells her Luciana’s presentation to the People’s cafe client
right at the same time Alicia is presenting her own campaign to the
clients. Alicia is not happy to hear
that. She won’t let Luciana do her presentation to Santy’s representative
today. Fatima asks her if she is mad at Luciana. Alicia says ‘me mad at Luciana? no way!’ (LOL!)
At the API,
the old guys are meeting with Roberto about the financial reports. Roberto is not really with his head in there
so he apologizes and cuts the meeting short.
Elias is
giving Alicia some final seconds encouragement and help with her ‘wings’. They walk
in the room. Alicia has feathery wings on the back of her suit jacket. Nestor
whispers that she looks ridiculous. (the campaign is about toilet paper LOL!) The
client LOVES the campaign ideas.
(angelic toilet paper LOL) The client keeps talking about how much he
loves the campaign when Luciana comes in yelling rants about Alicia cancelling/postponing
Luciana’s presentation to People’s café.
Alicia apologizes to the folks at the meeting about Luciana, who usually
can control her temper… Luciana yells more stuff, showing off the LACK of her
ability to control herself.

Antes muerta que Lichita #103 Thursday 2/18/16 "The Dark Angel has Arrived"
Apparently the show was preempted last night due to an award show. This episode will probably air tonight. Sorry about that guys :/
Read more »
Augusto congratulates Roberto for joining the dark side. Roberto is not as thrilled. He is just doing this for his son. When Roberto tries to get touchy feely with Augusto Draco shows his gun. Too bad...the API trio enter and interrupt the tense situation.
Luciana visits the cafecito like she sometimes does to see Valeria. This time Alicia is there and she is none too happy about this. Tensions are high but Alicia uses Ximena as an excuse to leave Luciana's presence. In the fourth wall Alicia cannot believe that her own parents are rolling out the carpet for her enemy. She understands Valeria's actions but not those of her family who are supposed to be by her side and not support the enemy that made her life miserable when she was Lichita.

El Hotel de los Secretos #18, 2/17/16 Wednesday: Free at Last, Isabel and Violeta Are Free at Last!
Et tu, Isabel? Diego lets one, single, perfect tear fall,
and continues his little I can’t believe you betrayed me speech to Isabel in
the hotel lobby, as Dagoberto and Ayala take him off to the pokey. “I don’t blame you. You did the right thing.
This will give me the opportunity to prove to you that I’m innocent. Wait for
me, please. This will all be resolved. I promise.” Isabel and Matilde watch
him leave, with pained expressions on their faces, but not much sympathy. Both
Julio and Dr. Vicario also watch Diego’s walk of shame out of the hotel. Ayala thanks
Isabel for her help, but tells her that you know who (Julio) will have to
testify at some point soon to move the case forward.
Read more »
Doña Teresa tries to intimidate Isabel into retracting her
accusations against the man she’s going to marry. Isabel corrects her—against the
man she WAS going to marry. Teresa tries to brush off the whole Cristina affair
as just a man being a man, but Isabel counters that Diego is not an animal or a
child. He can think, reason and make decisions. She further tells Teresa that
since she’s the one who got her engaged to Diego, she’s the one who’s going to
have to get her UN-engaged to him!

Antes muerta que Lichita #102. Wednesday 2/17/16.
Here we go. . .
Isidro is surprised to hear that his daughter Brisa quit. Fátima tells him he now has no reason to come around.
Augusto tells Draco how he is now the only owner of Icónika which he built all by himself. He cannot believe how many years he wanted to own it all and that it just took a few stupid photos to blackmail Beatriz into selling her shares to him. He tells Draco to prepare himself because turbulent times are coming.
Roberto wastes time with Mateo calling Gumaro and not telling him anything he wants to hear or know.
Alicia is left holding the bag with the director because Braulio did not show for the second time. The director is pissed. Alicia turns to Braulio's script and thinks about maybe using it in an ad campaign. She would not be robbing anything just taking advantage of something Braulio never would. Anyway, it would be just the same as others had done to her. Elías hears her talking to herself in her office and comes in to investigate. She does the "Elías going crazy" imitation. Liberty! Fraternity! Equality! she yells ripping off her own jacket.
Braulio catches up with Brisa before she gets on the plane for Timbuktu.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #122 2-17-16 I Love You to Death
Ciao, Muchacha Patio Peeps! Long-suffering, cat-scaring, beanie-wearing Muchacha Patio Peeps! You probably did all of these things while watching our latest installment. Well, here's your summary for tonight. Have at it and don't hold back!
It is established right from the outset, if you didn't know already, that Gianna's prospects for survival are slim to none. Gael hears Dr. Elizalde telling Eloisa this so he decides he and Gianna must marry now! In a sweet scene he gets down on his knee and asks for her hand in marriage. Of course, she accepts and he places a delicate little white flower that he has formed into a ring upon her finger. Pedro, Fiorella and Simoneta come by later. Fiorella has a dress and a wreath of flowers for her head. Everyone is there in the hospital chapel as Gael and Gianna marry and the vows to love each other in sickness and health until death parts them have never been more meaningful. He is handsome in his suit and she is radiant with love despite her frailty.

Mille grazie to our Wonderful and Marvelous Sneaky Two Shoes! This is her last recap for our little romp through Dos Rios! Please join me in thanking her in whatever language you choose for stepping up and helping to keep this Patio afloat! We love you, Sneaky!
Gia has made it to the hospital but no heart donor yet, the doc will keep them posted and btw they could use some blood donors, so all Gia’s friends and fam will donate. Gael stays w/Gia to try to convince her for the umpteenth time that all will be well and she won’t die.
At Adela & Rey’s breakfast table they discuss Gia’s plight. Beni gets a call from Gael and tells him they’ll all go to the hospital. Adela and Rey get all worried hearing that and make a loud fuss. Roxi fits right in to the family loudly screeching at everyone else to be quiet. They all yell about being quiet for a while then Beni tells about the need for blood, they’re all eager to donate too.
Pietrell and the doc discuss using an artificial heart if a real one doesn’t turn up in time. Fi doesn’t like the idea and gets emotional, she shares her anguish w/her birth parents when they show up.

lichita 2/16:
Carmona comes to arrest Sheila! on accusations of fraud! Beto grumpily watches, and later muses about whether Augusto will even bring his kid back.
Carmona's packet had the contact info for some mysterious witnesses who all denounced Sheila for fraud. So Beto's off the hook for now. I still can't tell if he actually just sent the packet or if he's claiming credit for it.
Brisa and braulio share a romantic moment and a kiss that surprises them both. Then back to business!
Sandra and Malicia's conflict comes to a head when Mr. Foster flips about the fake video he got from Sandra. Sandra loses and storms off, and Mr. Foster says he never trusted the stuff he was getting from Sandra anyway. He'll give her one more chance with one of his brands. The first famous brand for her to work with: Angelic Toilet Paper!

El Hotel de los Secretos #17, 2/16/16 Tuesday: Isabel, You Done Me Wrong!
Deviate Diego is halted in his attempt to deflower the supposed Isable due to Dona Angela’s watchful eye. She spies him from the hallway and asks why he’s risking his reputation attempting to abuse the trust (ahem) so to speak, of his fiancée. He tells her she’s right and backs out of the room. Isa’s BFF breathes a sigh of relief--nothing a bit of well-timed snores and snorts might not have aborted, should Angie not have been lucky enough to be wandering the floors that time of night.
Andres asks Julio how he managed to be let go. “By telling the truth.” Andres admits everybody including Isa thinks he was a murderer. Well, unfortunately, it is true.” And in the old carpenter shop? “--We discovered something to do with Cristina. We found out who took her. But I can’t say anything because it will put all of us in danger, primarily, Isabela (which means he’s got full reason to blurt it all out now per tn rules, natch—and he does.) It has to do with Diego Montera – but Isabel wants to take care of him her way. I may have lost a sister but she would lose her entire family.
At Detective Ayala’s meanwhile, Isa shows the two cameos (camafeo- ugly beds??????) and explains the initials and endearment on the back of each is exactly the same. He gave the same exact one to his lover as to his fiancée—His lover was Cristina Olmedo!!! (Dun-dun-dn-dunnnnn!). Well, Ayala admits it’s a pretty caddish and tacky thing to do, but it isn’t a crime and certainly doesn’t point to murder. Ok, then look a the newpaper photo taken the night of her disappearance at the Hotel’s Lighting party. He swore he never left her mother’s side all evening and yet he’s missing from the pictures! Ok, this has finally gotten Ayala’s attention. He’ll look into it and see what can be done.

Pasión y Poder Martes 2/16/16 #88
Chapter
88: “A Plague on Both Your Houses”
The
storm that's been brewing for quite a while is about to break. A
tsunami is coming over the houses of Gómez-Luna and Montenegro, the
likes of which are beyond Shakespeare and Tennessee Williams. We
could be witnessing a Götterdämmerung without having to go to
Bayreuth. This has all the drama although it lacks the spectacular
music.
The
more I'm around these people the more I wish I'd also majored in
psychology. Many wealthy people have problems about money, class,
and other matters but these people have more issues than National
Geographic.

Alicia continues becoming Malicia. Beto is pummeled from all sides. Augusto is still on the ascendant. Where is his anvil?
Did you hear that Google has abolished its slogan Do No Evil? Looks like Alicia is heading in that direction (the anti-do-no-evil direction). She starts by telling Chuchette her book is only suitable for the recycling bin, insults her and then sweetly imitates: "Oh, it was just a joke!"
Roberto is planning, again, to kidnap Mateo, who is properly doubtful (considering what happened the first time). And now it's worse: Sheila has been installed in a nice house with Mateo, Augusto is paying her well to be patient and pretend to be a mother, he has spies everywhere to ensure Roberto doesn't try anything. Gumaro tries to talk him out of it, too.
Braulio tells Brisa's dad: "General, my relationship with Brisa is epic!" Isidro reminds him: "You promised to win her back for me and I'll have a look at your movie." He ogles Chuchette. Turns out, the General has been ogling all the asses at Ikonika so Fatima blows him off when he compliments her later.

El Hotel de los Secretos #16, 2/15/16 Monday: Truth and Consequences
"We all have a right to our secrets," is Dr. Lazaro's cryptic explanation for getting Isabel and Mati out of the hotel. Chauffeur Jacinto points out that they are being followed, not at all discreetly, by Diego's incompetent henchman, Garrido. "Let's see if we can lose him," Dr L says.
They go to to the local Walgreen's. Jacinto waits outside, and Garrido watches Jacinto. Mati and Isabel go inside with the doctor. Isabel slips out the back to go to the police station; Mati strikes up a contentious and mostly one-sided conversation with the pharmacist.
At the police station, Ayala is telling Julio that he'd make a good detective when Isabela bursts in and demands the truth. "Are you a fugitive from justice?"
Julio replies, "don't be so quick to judge me. It's more complicated than it looks."
Ayala interjects that truth is subjective. One can be a fugitive without being a criminal. Julio should explain, but this is not the place - it's best if Julio and Isa aren't seen together here. "I know the perfect place," Isabel says.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #120 2-15-16 It's a Family Affair!
Ciao, Patio Peeps! Well, here we are in the last full week of La Muchacha and they didn't waste time with refritos so.....Andiamo!
Eloisa visits Freddie in prison. Freddie thinks she's there to mock her. Eloisa tearfully tells Freddie that she is sorry things turned out this way. Hmm, Freddie's not wearing beige or orange. Maybe she got to wear her own clothes cause she's "sposhsul!" Freddie charges the bars with a screeching yelp when Eloisa says that she didn't have to kill Dante. Two guards drag Freddie back to her cage!
Sergio is having a "confession is good for the soul" kinda day so he gives Pilar the short version of the "masquerade boink and now my two kids might be married to each other" fiasco he created. Pilar appreciates the full weight of the abomination: he cheated on her and he may be the father of their son's wife. She cries and pushes back on the bed to escape his touch. "Why did you marry me just to make me suffer! You're a horrible man! You're still horrible!"
Santino and Julieta are in bed and yes, they are glowing. Ummm. Santino's finely muscled chest and tight skin must feel heavenly to Julieta who looks right pleased about now. We get a nice view of his tastefully developed biceps and pecs as he lowers the phone. The DNA results are in! Soon they will know if Fiorella is their daughter!

El Hotel de los Secretos #15, 2/12/16 Friday: Lies, Freakouts And Plagiarism, Oh My!
At a glance
-- The dead girl at the police station is not Cristina. Julio and Ayala bond over clues and tamales and arrive to the conclusion that this latest murder is similar to the prostitute’s, that the murderer can’t be Pascual, that both murders occurred on a full moon night and that precautions need to be taken for the next full moon.
-- Isabel confronts Diego about Cristina and the cameo brooch she found. Diego admits that he and Cristina were lovers but he had nothing to do with what may have happened to her. The night when Cristina disappeared, he was with Teresa at the “Lights Party” and he never left her side that night.
-- The general gives Felipe and Teresa the choice between a shotgun wedding or a duel. Teresa opts for the former and informs her reluctant son that he’ll be marrying Mercedes in one week. It is revealed that Mercedes set up this whole thing to ensure her father surprises the couple in bed and forces Felipe to marry her.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #119 2-12-16 Anvilus Interruptus or an Anti-Climatic Anvil
Ciao, Peeps! Let's jump right in! If it reads choppy, that's because it WAS choppy. It's another vegematic episode and more's the pity because we saw the resolution of some storylines we probably would've enjoyed more if we'd seen them play out. PLUS, my DVR blew raspberries at me...didn't record a darned thing! Well, it is what it is so... Andiamo!
Fiorella has walked in on Sergio and Santino having a "who yo daddy" conversation. She seems not to have heard. She asks for Julieta. She is just there to return her cell phone. Sergio and Santino heave a big sigh of relief and blame each other for the close call.
Next we jump to the employee's kitchen where Domingo tells Simoneta about catching Freddie messing around in Pilar's bureau drawer. Simoneta knows this is highly suspicious because Freddie doesn't pick up or straighten up behind herself, much less anyone else. They hear a door slam and Simona jumps up and sprints out the door, rounds the corner and comes back to report to Domingo that Freddie was spying on them! Domingo panics! "Dios mio, that psychopath is going to kill me!" Simoneta says they have to be attentive and more alert now and she volunteers to be his guardian angel!

Muchacha Italiana #118 2/11/16 Pietro Angeles, King of Lame Excuses
Recap by Sneaky Two Shoes!!! (Lila apologizes for lateness of posting!! Sorry, guys!)
Alina discusses aromatherapy w/Pilar – was she using the drops for that? Pilar maintains she never uses drops for anything. Sergio drops by to catch up. Alina tells him she’s convinced the drops weren’t Pilar’s. He’s relieved but confused, what could it all mean? (losing brain cells by the minute this guy) He goes to visit w/Pilar, asks her how she’s feeling and she blames him for not looking for her when she was locked up. He apologizes and explains that he thought she was dead. Pietro calls to check in on his mom.

her hour of need w/only lame excuses for
company. Sergio and Pietro won’t even let her go visit Pilar w/them.

El Hotel de los Secretos #14, 2/11/16 Thursday: Julio's past revealed
I finally got to watch the episode, and here comes the recap, bullet point style:
- Isabel takes a nasty hit to the back of the head, but not before she finds a necklace identical to hers (with the same inscription) in Pascual's old haunts, Matilde and Jacinto come to her rescue and the good doctor provides treatment and later helps her test out her medical knowledge.
- The next morning Julio is off from work and getting ready to leave, that's when detective Ayala finds him and takes him on a little trip to the police station- he knows who Julio is and accuses him of being a killer. Dun,dun,dun!

Antes Muerta Que Lichita #99 2/11/16: Alicia's Walks the Path that Will Lead to Another Sandra.
Fourth wall Alicia reminds us of her finding out many of Roberto's lies. Don Augusto puts on a very good "Omg how dare he face" while Alicia rants on. The omniscient Augusto is behind Mateo's quick adoption. Now Roberto has to cater to his whims in order to protect Alicia and Mateo. Alicia tells us that she is changing (for the worst)...we see her throwing her dreams/ideals away literally.

Augusto wants Roberto to help him with his side business. Augusto goes on about people rich people making a lot of money. He has a lot of clients who want to continue the benefits they were receiving when he was on the API president (I couldn't get the whole convo so if someone could explain this would be awesome!).
Alex and Kenny are now now married. Bea invites them both to the house for a special dinner. Back at the house Alex states he has another surprise which causes her to tense up. But he assures her its a good thing...he now wants to take up the opportunity to go to Iconika USA. Alex worries about this since his father has all the shares. Bea told him that USA is out of Augusto's reach since her brother owns that portion.

Pasión y Poder Jueves 2/11/16 #86
Chapter
86: Summer
and Smoke
Had
a few cocktails the other day with an old acquaintance and it
occurred to me that this story is taking on some elements of one of
his less successful plays. This needs a few martinis now because I'm
not sure where it could go from here. Until now I seemed to be
looking at one of Shakespeare's greatest hits being turned inside out
which means it would end with adult children mourning their parents.
On the other hand, it could become something that ends in a modern
stalemate. Not sure what my readers will say to either.
One
thing I can say is that today's communication capabilities and
changes in morality means that all bets are off.

Lo Nuevo
Nina argues with Art about being more firm with Connie. Art's phone interrupts them, it's Hummy on the line. He tells Art that he will push Julia to leave the GL mansion. Art tells Hummy to let him know when Julia leaves the house. Hummy says he will, and then Art will have to help BOTH of them. Hummy also tells Art that he will have to accept David, otherwise Julia won't want anything to do with him. Art shamelessly has this entire conversation in front of Nina, with a smirky "I won" look on his face. Read more »

Antes muerta que Lichita #98 2/10/16
Well, here we go. Sure hope we aren't getting a two for one tonight. And we didn't. It was a single episode!
At the Cafecito, Alicia is feeling bitchy and definitely not in the mood to talk to Magos or Ximena. Valeria comes over and lets Alicia know that she knows the real situation with Luciana and Roberto and Alicia. Luciana is not happy at all. Roberto is a good man. Alicia should talk to Roberto. It is better to know the truth than always have doubts. Alicia looks like she is thinking about that bit of advice.
Augusto and Roberto are still at it. Augusto tells him to distance himself from Alicia or she and Mateo will suffer the consequences. It is "free will" and up to Roberto to decide. Roberto does not believe that Augusto would do anything to hurt Alicia because Augusto wants her for himself. He has always had his eye on her: trying to seduce her, etc. He tells Augusto that the real reason he wants him away from Alicia is because he knows that he loves her and is capable of doing anything for her. Augusto asks him if he is more honest or more stupid admitting being in love with Alicia while being married to his daughter Luciana at the same time. Roberto better watch it or he will get to know Augusto as an enemy. Roberto tells Augusto that he and Alicia love each other. Really? Augusto makes sure that Roberto knows that Alicia sold him out. Roberto looks shocked. Augusto tells him to open his eyes. Roberto cannot believe it. Augusto repeats his threat: if he wants Mateo to be safe: distance himself from Alicia. Roberto demands that Augusto tell him how he ended up being Mateo's tutor. Roberto suggests Augusto only got involved as that so he could keep Roberto's hands tied and that he paid off Sheila. Roberto guessed right. Roberto wants to know how Augusto got legal power over his son: Augusto had all the legal connections that got Mateo taken from orphanage without a paper trail. He got it all done due to his experience with the adoption of some "monsters" in the past. In the middle of all this, Alicia calls. Augusto wants Roberto to answer. Roberto says he will distance himself from Alicia with the condition that Augusto not involve her in any of his shady business dealings. To show how magnanimous he can be, Augusto will give him that one concession. In turn Roberto will break it off with Alicia once and for all as only he Roberto can: by destroying her heart. Augusto just smirks through all of this. Roberto does not answer the call but texts Alicia and arranges a meeting tomorrow at her office. Alicia will give him the five minutes to find out what he wants to tell her about his past.

El Hotel de los Secretos #13, 2/10/16 Wednesday: For Always…Well, Maybe Just for a While
Isabel becomes even more uncomfortable than she already was
during her surprise romantic dinner for two with Diego when she learns that Julio will
be their private waiter. Diego toasts: “For
the woman who will soon be mine.” Diego asks Isabel when she wants to get
married. In the fall, she says (far, far away in the fall). He ups the level of discomfort when he makes Isabel open
the gift box in front of her, containing a cameo brooch, and makes her read the
inscription out loud: “For always.”
Read more »
Julio leaves the dining room stiffly, wishing Isabel his
congratulations on her engagement as he goes. After the dinner, Julio goes outside
to hit rocks with sticks, and generally curse his luck for falling for a rich
gal who’s already engaged to someone else. Isabel goes searching for Julio in
his room after dinner and only finds Andres in his skivvies. She asks Andres to
drop the formalities and just be the friend she grew up with, and knows all her
secrets. He realizes that what/who she really needs is Julio, but he doesn’t
know where he is. He hugs Isabel instead.

Muchacha Italiana #116 2/9/16 Technical Difficulties
Recap by the amazing Sneaky Two Shoes!!! Grazie Tantissimo!!
(Ok folks I got to start out with an apology, this was a night of just one thing after another, first the audio was muffled on my recording and I spent an hour taking apart and cleaning my VCR to no avail so I’m sure I missed some dialogue so this recap is going to be extra short)
Just as Fi is asking Pietro why he is so distant with her and what was it that his father told him that upset him so much they broke in w/primary results so I missed whatever lame excuse Pietro came up with and the next thing I got was the funeral at the house.
Roxi cries and eulogizes her mother; how nice she was, and how she let her get away with everything, and how mean Roxi was. Then, Fed comes home and makes a ruckus about the funeral for the servant till Roxi gives her a well deserved slap and tells the priest he can get on with the funeral.
Then we go to Pietrella’s room and Pietro’s unwillingness to even lie in bed beside the woman who may be his half sister. He goes to shower (repeatedly I’m sure) while Fi goes to sleep. Pietro flashes back to all their kisses from the very first, till Sergio’s voice breaks in to his memories saying Fi might be his daughter.
Next morning Pietro hasn’t slept in the bed and left a note for Fi saying he’s gone to resolve something.

El Hotel de los Secretos #12, 2/9/16 Tuesday: Beaten Up and Beat Down and Just Plain Beat!
El Pasado:
Julio finally straggles and struggles, making his way back through the kitchen entrance of the Grand Hotel, drunk, disheveled and disheartened. I might add disdainful of the lovely Isabela who hears the commotion and races into the kitchen only to be cursed by “her camarero.” He literally curses the day he and his sister ever came upon the Alarcon Family. They are capable of anything and everything! The family only knows betrayal and wickedness. They are capable of twisting the purest and most spotless of souls there is! Andres has to drag him out of there before the whole hotel is awakened.
El Nuevo:
Julio pushes off Andres and Lupe’s kid and sleeps it off in a corner of the kitchen that night while Isa weeps behind locked doors. Andres tosses and turns until dawn when he makes it back to the kitchen and carries Julio off to bed.
As the day begins downstairs, poor Lupe tries cheering up his ungrateful son. As kids often do, he returns the favor with snide remarks that because of Lupe loving his cooking more than his wife (in a few words) the woman left and Smart-Ass Kid never knew his mother. Lupe gives the kid what for and a much deserved and well-placed whack across the chops.
Upstairs, Isa hides in her locked room as Diego abuses his authority and tries using his skeleton key to enter and spy on her. He thinks twice about it and leaves. She races of to her friend, Mati’s, suite and climbs in the bed. Matilde complains that Isa’s making too much over this nobody of a camarero of hers. Isa supposedly loses all perspective when it comes to this guy! Isa denies it. They’re only friends. Talk to the hand, says Mati. This face knows better and it ain’t listenin’.

Pasión y poder, Episode 84, Tuesday, February 9, 2016: This isn't ripping off a bandaid – this is a damn bikini wax!
I can't even
Poor, conflict-averse Gabriela begs her beloved aunt to talk to Franco. Julia, however, can't oblige her. Really, she can't even look at Franco right now.
The spokesmodel sleeps in
Slugabed Daniela is evasive when Nina asks where she was the night before. But she must think it's hilarious when Nina reveals her latest brainstorm – why not have Ashmore as the baby's godfather?
Who is she???
Julia sees Eladio asleep in the armchair in his study, an open bottle and an empty glass nearby. She rouses him by shaking him, disgusted with him for taking refuge in alcohol. Now she angrily demands the name of Franco's mother. With great reluctance – he doesn't want to cause her more pain, but he doesn't want to lie to her anymore – he tells her that Franco's mother is Caridad. Julia is aghast. Caridad Herrera???

Pasion y Poder #83 20160208 Julia Shriver Learns the Truth!
- Connie and Miguel are on the phone whispering sweet nothings to one another. Connie asks Miguel what TMZ had to say about her. Miggie won't tell. He tells her that he loves her and kisses to the baby.
- After they hang up, Connie is visited by Dani. Dani asks to be the godmother. Connie says hell no in a nice way. Her kid's will be sober and have morals. Anyway, Connie was thinking of asking Gina. Dani says that Connie should reconsider because Art would never allow Dave to be the godfather.
- Speaking of no morals, Dave and Gina enter the hospital room and announce that they have decided to live together in sin in Monterrey. They have a heavy groping session in front of the new mother and Dani. I surprised that they didn't ask Connie to move over in the hospital bed so that they could really get it on. Geez. Connie tells the couple that she is considering who should be the godparents. Gina tells her to make sure that godparents will put the child first or something like that. Dani leaves.

Julio is in the midst of a full-blown brawl, and doing fairly well, when Genaro pulls a gun on Julio. Julio pauses, and Genaro's pals grab Julio and let him have it.
Jacinto drags Isabel away, saying that if anything happens to her, he (Jacinto) will get killed.
Julio gets carted off to jail.
Morning. Ayala has to tell Dagoberto and the other cop that splashing people with water is not the proper way to wake them. Ayala welcomes Julio to the world of the living. He's impressed that Julio beat up five people last night. Julio takes off his wet shirt to mop his face. We see a half-moon tattoo on the inside of his right arm - that is, if we can spare a look at his arm because there is a lot of other good stuff on display.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casare #115 2-8-16 A Swift and Sudden Visit from the Angel of Death!
Ciao, Peeps. I'm not feeling peppy or inspired tonight. As is inevitable in these stories, we have come to a painful parting of the ways between us and a (mostly) beloved character. The loss colors everything and is one of only two major developments tonight. More than a recap, this will be an extended introduction for a discussion page. So, here we are:
First we have Fiorella's finding out she is the long lost daughter of Julieta and Santino. They are initially shocked and then overcome with joy and relief while Fiorella is devastated. She pulls away from their attmpts to embrace her and she asks them accusingly, why did they give her away, why did they abandon her? They are hurt by her rejection but give her space and Fiorella vents these feelings in more depth with Pedro moments later. With Pedro she cries and rages that Vittorio had no right to keep this information from her; the whole thing feels unreal and what a bitter surprise life has dealt her: all her life has been a lie! Pedro wonders what happened to the Dr. who was present at her birth? He's a very old man now, he must have confused her with Gianna. Pedro offers his support to her for whatever she needs and consoles her with his kisses and warm embrace. She begs him and he agrees not to tell Gianna. Fiorella is afraid her heart couldn't take the shock.

TELEMUNDO Y MÁS (#1): Celia, Eva la Trailera, La Querida del Centauro, Fatmagul, and ¿Quién es Quién?: Week of February 8, 2016
The Telemundo page is now issued twice a week: Mondays at 3PM and
Thursdays at 8PM. This is the place for discussion of Celia (whose gran
final airs this Monday), Eva la Trailera, La Querida del Centauro,
Fatmagul, and, starting this Tuesday at 8PM, ¿Quién es Quién?
Wikipedia offers the following brief synopsis of ¿Quién es Quién?: "... a story about twin brothers, one rich and the other poor, who were separated at birth and reunited several years later; they decide to change their identities, giving them the opportunity to deal with various complicated situations." I suspect the novela, starring Eugenio Siller as both brothers, will be a lot more fun than this rather dry synopsis may suggest. Some of us will surely remember Eugenio as Nicolás Núñez / Javier Bolivar in the madcap "Reina des Corazones." The Telemundo website offers a synopsis of ¿Quién es Quién? in Spanish along with information about the cast (including photos) and videos.
Everyone is welcome to join in the discussion. Please remember to put the name of the novela you're discussing at the top of your posting, since all the Telemundo novelas share the same page.

Pasión y poder, Episode 82, Friday, February 5, 2016: Spite and Greed – Humberto sells Eladio's secret to Arturo. Will the House of Cards come tumbling down?
Let's pick up where we left off on Thursday night:
The Kiss
In Consuelo's hospital room, the sweet kiss comes to an end. Consuelo knows how Miguel feels. After all, she has just confessed that she feels the same way about him. But his continued presence in her life can only make things worse.
Regina calls her sister-in-law to congratulate her. For the baby's sake, she tells Consuelo, she hopes Erick will wake up. And Miguel, who is still lingering in the room, hears what Consuelo replies:
Aunque yo nunca volvería con Erick, deseo de todo corazón que se despierte.
(Although I would never go to back to Erick, I hope with all my heart that he does wake up.)
The Warning
In Erick's hospital room, Arturo stands up to Nina when she insinuates that Miguel represents a danger to their grandson. He certainly doesn't have to protect the baby from him, he says. "Miguel helped to bring him into the world, and he would never harm him. Never."
"Don't you think it's harm enough," replies Nina, "for his uncle to have fallen in love with his mother? He's only a baby now, but what about when he's older and he finds out about all this?"

We begin at the dinner table with Elisa, Alfredo, Sofia, Teresa, Filipe, and Diego sitting together. Isabel, who should be at the dinner celebrating Diego’s heroic act, (not really, he was just shutting up a key witness) but instead she and Julio are at the front door of Pascual’s dilapidated house as Julio is inserts the key.
Alfredo urges his mother to meet with him soon, he has something very important to discuss with her. She replies that if it’s not about the fact that they should be on the next train leaving these savages, then she doesn’t see the urgency to talk with him. Ouch! Now we know clearly her opinion of this family. And Filipe isn’t helping when he whistles to the waiter for more wine.

Ciao, miei cari Patio Peeps! Andiamo. . .short e dolce! Let's go! Short and sweet! No refrito!
Fidel shows Pedro the canvas bag with the hammer and screwdriver and pliers. Looks like Osvaldo is behind the deadly "home improvement!" Os comes in grinning from ear to ear with a shopping bag full of baby stuff to show Pedro who slaps him with the accusation instead.
Sonia is practicing with her singing coach. Be nice folks, she is practicing. Freddie waltzes in and calls Sonia's attention to the loud voices coming from the study. Sonia goes to investigate. Freaky Freddie (wish I could find a clever name to work "bitch" into her name) insults and evicts the coach!
Pedro collars Osvaldo who vigorously denies the charges and defends himself without huffing, puffing, or becoming obnoxious! He understands Pedro's suspicions but stands his ground. Sonia enters the study and joins the defense. Osvaldo asks why would he want to harm Pedro when without Pedro the business would sink and why would he hide the incriminating evidence in his bedroom? Fidel thinks Os has a point and Pedro grudgingly agrees with Fidel that they will keep investigating more deeply. Os cautions Pedro that someone is trying to drive a wedge between them and agrees that until the culprit is found, everyone remains under suspicion!

El Hotel de los Secretos #9, 2/4/16 Thursday: Death for Pascual
This will be quick and dirty, I hope I manage to cover everything, if I miss something please feel free to add it in the comments section:
We left off last night with the shooting of Pascual, Diego is a good shot and nails him in the chest, Pascual goes down and is unable to answer Julio when he asks who killed Cristina. Diego comes out of the woods and rushes to Isabel, he spots Julio and points his gun at him while accusing him of being a thief. Julio denies the accusation and Isabel is able to get Diego to stand down.

Antes Muerta que Lichita #94 Thursday 2/4/16: Luciana Learns a Thing or Two but Dafne Outshines them All!
Alicia praises Santiago for how great he has been, almost like a prince, to her BUT she does not want to marry him. Santiago does not understand why when she just accepted his proposal. Alicia reasons that she felt pressured to accept his proposal since he did it in front of everyone...the media, her family...etc she had no other choice. Plus she does not think she is ready for marriage...she just wants to focus on her career right now. Santiago cuts to the chase...he wants to know the real reason for her rejection...is it her work or Roberto (ding ding ding). Alicia cannot deny her lingering feelings for Roberto but she tells Santiago that this decision has more to do with herself and no one else. At this point, Santiago feels hurt and abruptly leaves. Forth wall Alicia tells the audience of her doubts...was this really the right decision for her?

Pasión y poder, Episode 81, Thursday, February 4, 2016: Call Miguel – He delivers!
Erick has been in a coma for six months. The police have still not identified the person who tried to kill him.
At the Montenegro breakfast table, Nina and Arturo smile indulgently as Daniela shows off her first magazine cover. Then Nina leaves for the hospital, where she has spent every day at Erick's bedside since the crash.
Now alone with her father, Dani tells him something that she has undoubtedly said over and over again in the last six months: that Miguel was the only one who had a motive to kill Erick. Arturo answers with his own litany: that Miguel is no murderer.
Clara is flustered when the now heavily pregnant Consuelo tells her she's having contractions. She asks her friend to call Arturo.

Antes muerta que Lichita #95 Feb 05, 2016. The bomb Santy dropped on Alicia worked. and Sheyla gave her a strong aftershock... Alicia confronts Rob.
THank you Jarifa for the notes... here is the recap..
Santy tells Alicia that he is doing this for her own
wellbeing and safety (nose growing)… she looks at the file… she gets really
upset… can’t believe Rob would do this.
Santy adds the bs that she will conquer the world with her beautiful
eyes and smile.
Brisa and Braulio, she is saying words that sound like
goodbye, she wishes him all the best and says Namaste (I see the light shining
on you). And leaves…
Augie tells Luciana and Roberto that he they WILL NOT get
divorced… he does not know the reasons they want to divorce, but if Luciana
wants to be officially recognized as his daughter, she will stay married… he will
not have two divorces in the family at the same time … for them he wants them
to continue married and, rather, give him two grandsons… NO GRANDDAUGHTERS, Two
grandsons!
Brisa is posting things in facebook about spreading her
wings… Braulio comes in running worried asking why she is posting ‘goodbye’
words in the social media…. She just
says she wants to start over elsewhere.
Elias gets up and tells Sandra that he is very happy they
are back together… (they just made love)… Sandra gets up and tells him that
what just happened was rather a ‘mistake’.
Roberto calls Alicia… tells her he is held up with the API
guys and will be a while before he gets with them. A little later he texts her
and she grinds through her teeth running out of patience.
Luciana rants at Augie about not wanting her to get divorced…
Augie basically says ‘because I say so’.
She keeps wanting to know why… he says she is the only one that can give
him a heir (heredero).
The Gutierrez are at a table in the Cafecito watching
Corazon Enamorado while Valeria is working behind the counter. Elsa, Magos and Nacho are discussing Alicia breaking
up with Santy… Nacho and Elsa say Alicia should marry whoever she is in love
with.
Roberto is on phone with SHeyla… he talks briefly with Mateo
and tells SHeyla to take good care of Mateo.
Roberto then calls Alicia and tells her it will take a
little longer, like half an hour for him to finish what he is up to. He reminds
her he loves her.

El Hotel de los Secretos #8, 2/3/16 Wednesday: Teresa Schools Felipe in Tough Love
Garrido is just about to plunge his blade into Julio’s neck,
when suddenly Julio hears Pascual being hailed in the hallway and turns back to
go after him. Garrido escapes unseen, while Julio shoves Pascaul into his room,
and threatens him with his own blade, if Pascual doesn’t immediately spill what
he knows about Cristina Olmedo and the cufflink. He was her boyfriend, right?!
Pascual puts up a struggle, and Julio then accuses him of being the one who
blackmailed Diego. Don Benjamin barges in, wanting to know what’s going on with
all the ruckus. With Julio’s knife to his back, Pascual goes along with the
ruse that they were just being friendly. Ben doesn’t care. He wants Julio back
to work polishing shoes, so that they’ll be ready bright and early tomorrow
morning! Julio obeys, and leaves a very stirred and shaken Pascual.
Read more »
Early the next morning, Julio delivers the shined shoes of
the guests to their doors, while Pascual, still in his skivvies in his room,
jumps at every sound, worried Julio is back to finish him off. He makes a
decision, and packs one small case…with the money he blackmailed out of Diego.

Antes muerta que Lichita #93 Wednesday 2/3/16
DOUBLE EPISODE ALERT!
Do not be surprised if the recap is just as choppy as the episode. I never saw more commercials or "chops" in one hour!
Anyway, we begin with the proposal . . . Will Alicia accept????
It takes a few seconds but Alicia says Yes!!! (deep down she is not so sure). There are applause all around but not everyone is happy. Roberto is on the ground spitting out a mouth full of grass. Elsa, Roberto and Nacho are all in bad moods over the engagement. Roberto gets drunk and knows what he has to do. He ends up taking his frustration out on Santiago with his fists when he sees Santiago kisses his fiancée Alicia. Finally, Roberto is escorted out of the party. The party is not what it was supposed to be and is over before it starts. Valeria and Alicia end up talking with Valeria listing the stresses Roberto is under including the situation with his son. Is he the son for real?--asks Alicia. Does he live with Luciana and Roberto? Where is he? Valeria tries to change the topic saying she has to call a taxi. Alicia will give her a lift. At Valeria's, Valeria offers to make a couple of matés to drink. Alicia looks around and finds a room all set up for a little boy complete with Mateo's picture. She remembers Mateo from the orphanage. Why was he in an orphanage anyway?
After the party, Roberto ends up at the Gutiérrez house where Nacho makes him agree to forget about Alicia and Roberto offers his help with the con man. Elsa wants to know what con man. Nacho shushes Roberto and starts crying when Elsa twists his ear. Roberto then is back at the mansion singing out his woes with Gumaro accompanying him on the guitar.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #112 2-3-16 "If I had a Hammer. . . . ."
Ciao, Peeps! Here's your summary for tonight!
Please see Sneaky's recap and discussion of yesterday's action here!
Santino offers to sign up to be a heart donor for Gianna. Dante's sudden demise is proof of the fleeting nature of life. Fiorella thanks Santino with a big hug!
The autopsy report states Dante died of a heart attack. It's not universally believed (Osvaldo) but is eventually accepted.
Fidel reports to Pedro on the State of El Rancho. Cameras are poorly placed leaving "blind spots" in the closed circuit surveillance and many are old and need repair or replacing. The whole system will be down for maintenance.
Freddie denies to Eloisa that she and Dante had a thang goin' on. Freddie blames Eloisa and Maximo for making her so embittered and soured on life, she never married. Freddie calls Aitana. They meet and agree they are a couple of bitches. Aitana signs on to take out Pedro and Fiorella seeing as how the cameras are out and she can get away undetected.
