Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 18 (June 20, 2016) 2d Half
While we waited out the Copa America games, two poets-in-residence offered these for our diversion. Watch out for those Bread Crumbs, folks!
Luis is still nursing a grudge.
From this he never will budge.
He argues in court
'Cause he's of that sort
But won't win 'less he pays off the judge.
:
Louy is such a jerk
Who other people he loves to hurt
Surely when his time comes
He will be eating Crumbs
For others he poisons their bread
Maybe he'll be the one to eat it and be dead.

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #71. Tuesday June 21, 2016. My Internet Keeps Cutting Off. It's Telling Me Not To Watch.
 |
| How do you like them guns? I got mine by drinking copious amounts of Lala Milk and living at the gym! |
Hello Patio Pals! We’ll have to make do with a quick summary until a volunteer takes over this recapping spot.
Ricardo saves Estrella from Jabba the Hutt (whose dubbed-over voice continues to make him sound like a detergent commercial). Once again, poor Baxter does all the work and Tricky Ricky and la Virgencita get all the credit. It is worth noting that all the thugs present during Estrella's rescue were very cooperative with Ricardo. All he had to do was talk them into surrendering their guns.

Yago #23. Monday June 20, 2016. Relationship Status: It’s Yagomplicated.
At a glance
-- Lucio pulls an elaborate stunt to verify whether Yago is Sara’s lover.
To no avail.
-- Ámbar leaves her sister’s house to go live with Yago, her love interest, who, unbeknownst to her, is her sister’s mystery boinker, that her brother-in-law is determined to find and kill.
-- Abel discovers that Sara, his best friend’s wife, is having an affair with his love rival, who happens to be the love interest of Sara’s sister, who happens to be Abel’s love interest.
-- Katia and Teo sleep together to ease the tensions of their complicated working relationship.
A closer look
Flashback, Mexico City, a few years ago. Young Bruno is quarreling in the schoolyard with Young Eduardo from MEPS, in his pre-Járvar days. Bruno is accused of stealing a wallet and though he maintains his innocence, nobody is willing to believe in the word of a murderer’s brother. This insult enrages Bruno who rains blows upon his classmate. The principal interrupts the fight and reprimands Bruno for his violent and disruptive behavior. The problem teen had been expelled from several schools already, does he want to be thrown out of this one as well? asks the principal. Justice isn’t achieved through delivering punches. He hands Bruno a book by Polish journalist, Ryszard Kapuściński (1932-2007), called: “Cynics Are No Use At this Profession: About Good Journalism”. That day, Bruno discovered another way to raise his voice (alzar la voz) against injustice and to defend the truth.

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #70. Monday June 20, 2016. When The Villano Is A More Reliable Galán Than The Galán
 |
| Ernesto is insanely hot: Sweet as pie with his gal but a bad motha when need be. He deserves a happy ending. Yes, I have issues. |
At a glance
-- Osorio is still regurgitating the same tired plots. Esperanza suffers. Ricardo plays vigilante (when Baxter is the real unsung hero). Ernesto melts hearts. Pato b*tches. Luca cowers. Kristel snivels. Pedro withdraws. Estrella self-sacrifices. Erasmo self-flagellates. Cristina is self-important. Silvana is pathetic. Mario is spineless. Margarita is clueless. Kracy is crazy. Kiko is the producer's son, so he gets plenty of airtime no matter what.
A closer look
At Casa Guerrero, Pedro informs his sister that the X-rated photos starring her fiancé and his ex have gone viral. Pato throws another tantrum about Luca not calling her immediately after being notified of Anastasia’s latest stunt. It’s not like the guy has to earn a living or anything. New York or no, business trip or no, Pato expects Luca to phone her at the top of every hour to let her know what he’s doing and to marvel at her beauty, to maintain good communication. Here’s a thought, Pato: Why don’t you attach a Luca-cam to the guy’s head and follow his every movement?

IS FERNANDA THE ONLY PRISONER IN THIS STORY? Think About---
Marissa - She's a prisoner of a debilitating disease and cloudy thinking
Don Fernando - He's also a prisoner of his mental deterioration and the manipulation by his elder daughter and her husband
Luis - He's a prisoner of greed, ambition and malevolence
Mariana and Hernan - They are in the same prison as Luis, with a little envy and jealousy thrown in the mix
Camila - She is a prisoner of her upbringing: unloved, unappreciated, a tool of her father
Isabela - She is a prisoner of her Hair and an uncontrolled obsession with Carlos
Amelia - She's been in a prison of her own making; bitter and longing for her former life, although she may get out on parole
Pedro - He's a prisoner of his own stubbornness and the inability to see how his goodness and protectiveness hurts the ones he loves
Carlos - He's a prisoner of telenovela plots, conventional set-ups, chicanery and skullduggery committed by others
Marissa - She's a prisoner of a debilitating disease and cloudy thinking
Don Fernando - He's also a prisoner of his mental deterioration and the manipulation by his elder daughter and her husband

Tres Veces Ana #23: OVER THE MOON BY THE LAGOON
Who’ll be the first over the moon? Let us see…..
• Ana Laura says “Sí” but balks at being bedded before being wedded. Her leg of lead stops them dead. They head home instead, while most of the family are filled with dread that down the wrong road Ramiro has A Lloro led.
• Meanwhile, Ana Lucia and Santiago drive back to the place where it all began for them. They promise each other they’ll never love another. A mistaken Evaristo tells Mama Solidad that they’re more than likely saying their good-byes cuz he’s on his way to somewhere that ensures they’ll never see hide nor hair of each other again.

Sorry for the reshuffling of the episodes this week, everybody. We should be back to business in our usual order after this week!

Sueño de amor, Ep. 69 (6.16.16) Believe it or not: Everybody is sleepless in Sueñolandia
¡Paradójico! ¡Nadie tiene sueño en Sueñolandia!
Midnight confessions
Is midnight in Sueñolandia and the sandman failed to show up, so everybody is awake...
Mario came looking for Leche Lala and found Salma, so they had a picnic inside the refrigerator while discussing the love life of the teenager. Hashtag Ladyconfundida2 or #Ladyembarazada. Her guilt is keeping her awake because she is expecting a baby from the boy she loves and he despises her while there's another boy who loves her but she dispises him. Well, it runs in the family, Mario himself was confundido once dating Pánfila, or whats her name? Felícitas, only to make her loose her job and disappear from the face of the earth. Now he loves Viviana but who knows? Silvana is coming back, and the writers are crazy, so I wouldn't bet much on it.

Erasmo only had yesterday's stale tortillas but Kiko wanted to talk while Estrella prayed to both her mother and the Virgen de la Paz so she could avoid going to Tamaulipas with Sansón. Their impossible loves are keeping them awake, and to make matters worst, now Erasmo will have to work in three different places just to pay the interest of the interest of his loan. If only poor people were not this stoopid, they could manage their economics better. later on, when both guys are fast asleep, she writes her ''goodbye letter''

#FREEFERNANDA
Who holds the key to Fernanda’s freedom? Will it be Ignacio, Camila, Carlos, Don Fernando, Amelia, Pedro, Felipe or…wait for it, Javier? Yes, Javier will no doubt come back into the picture. He was only supposed to be gone a short time. Pedro is living in his house, for heaven’s sakes. It would be hard to believe Javier didn’t leave a way to contact him while he’s been away. Pedro can’t be so stupid or blind not to let him know what happened to Fer. Indeed, Pedro had the hopes that Fernanda would turn her eyes on Javier, a wholesome, successful and acceptable mate, even though Javier himself saw it was a hopeless situation.

Yago, #21, Wednesday 6/15/16: Yago Strikes Again
We meet Camilo at a ribbon-cutting ceremony in front of a tall building. (He's the ribbon-cutter.) He tells us that playing God is addictive. One way to keep power is to use people's fear against them. Power is like a muscle: you have to keep using it in order to stay strong. If you don't use your power, it weakens.
Camilo meets his goons (including Tomas Vargas, the loan shark) on the roof of the building. He asks who let the kid get away. As the guilty party begs for his life, Camilo orders one of his other goons, a man called El Chino, shoot him in the head. Chino protests weakly, but complies. Then Camilo orders Chino to jump off the roof. Chino protests a little more strongly. Camilo holds up a photo of Chino's wife, Jesusa. Camilo says that if Chino doesn't fall off the roof, they'll rape and torture his wife to death. Chino jumps off the roof.

Sueño de amor #68 Wed. 6/15/16
It seems soooo long ago but we left with Cristina deciding to accept the job at the Instituto Palacios and asking Mr. Snoop Ricardo to leave.
At the family court office, Ricardo hands over a psychological evaluation that was done on him about six months ago to the judge. She says she will look it over. She asks if he has the "proof" he has told her about. He does not have those videos yet. He will be sending them to her and they will prove he never touched Tracy. He thanks her for the time and consideration she has given him. His case is interesting to her because she wants to protect his children and she can see that his children do love him which is the opposite of Tracy's claims. She wants all of the information as clear as possible.
Margarita and Kristel go to visit Silvana at the jail. Surprise! Surprise! Silvana's demeanor is totally changed as part of the "true revenge" plan as suggested by La Tuerta (Ole One Eye). Silvana is crying and asking for their forgivenes. She even kisses their hands and lets them "pet" her head like a dog but nothing has changed. She has successfully deceived them with her "pity me" and "mea culpa" act. In reality, Silvana thinks they are just as stupid as ever.

Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 17 (Jun 13, 2016) 1st Half
NOTICE: No Camino on Monday, June 13
We will have to wait until Tuesday to see how Fernanda’s trial goes. With Felipe defending her instead of Ordoñez, anything can happen. Can anything save her from prison? If Camila goes along with Mariana and Hernán, she will lose Fernanda as a friend forever, but gain her father’s approval (temporarily, probably). If she doesn't and backs Fernanda, her father's wrath comes down on her and Mariana reverts to her venomous reptilian persona. Since Camila hurt Fer at the end of Friday's episode telling her Carlos won't show up because he took his mother to Houston and he's with Ickzzy--his only real love, this does not bode well for the friendship.
Don Fernando is a lost cause to testify in favor of Fernanda. He's too befuddled. As Delilah pointed out, he doesn't even look good in his clothes.
Things look bleak before the trial even gets under way.
While we wait, let’s speculate—why, when Fernanda is faced with serious prison time, won’t Pedro or Amelia just let loose with their not so very dirty secret to Luis….and Fernanda. (Thank you, Diana, for the idea.)

Tres Veces Ana #19: The Facade de Bondad Starts Cracking
Three Facades de la Bondad
Ana Laura's answer to Ana Leticia's declaration that Uncle Mariano is hers and can never be Jennifer's is met with a plea for Lemmee to get professional help. (Yeah, like when has she ever listened to anybody but herself, ever?)
Meanwhile, Ramiro's credit and cards are blocked and locked. (Does it make sense staying in a high class hotel then, when he knows ol' Papi-cock has cut him off? Dude deserves what he gets. He ain't smart enough to live long, but we know he will.) He goes to The Realty Place to at least give Uncle Mo the 411 on Ana Lucia. Unfortunately for him, Lemmee sees and latches onto him first; she taunts him and then when Mo enters the area, slaps the shit outta Rami and calls him fresh. Info is all a no go, and Mo gives him the heave ho.......Damn! Is Ramiro slow!

Yago, #20, Friday 6/10/16: Congratulations! It's a Boy!
Flashback: Sara is looking at the positive result on her pregnancy test and thinking that she isn’t cut out to be a mother. She never played with dolls or played house as a child and didn’t grow up with a mother’s love. She doesn't think she can be a better parent than her father was to her. Now Mati is paying for her sins.
She goes to prison to tell Omar he’s going to become a father, but then changes her mind and leaves.
She goes to Chela, her old landlady, to take her to the abortion clinic. She doesn’t feel anything for this child and doesn’t want to have it. Chela urges Sara to take a few days to think about it, but Sara wants to get it over with.
Before the procedure can begin, the technician does an ultrasound. When Sara hears the baby’s heartbeat, she changes her mind... and brings the ultrasound picture to Lucio. "We’re going to have a baby!" Lucio is over the moon.

Weekend Activity: The Televisa Remake Game (Classic Movies Edition)
In the last week I've been watching some great classic movies, so I've decided to revive something we had fun with in the past, The Televisa Remake Game. The rules:
- Pick a classic movie, any genre. Title translation optional.
- Give your dream cast for the Televisa Remake you would produce. Actors currently under contract to Telemundo are also invited to the casting call. Although most or all character names would be changed into Spanish ones, use the original character names for clarity.
- Make note of any minor changes to setting, character relationships, etc.
- Comment on any previously posted project.
- Have fun!

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #67. Friday June 10, 2016. Repetitiveness, Wretchedness, Ludicrousness And Drabness, Washed Down With A Tall Glass Of Lala Milk

| Too much stoopid will give you indigestion |
At a glance

At Casa Guerrero, Ernesto brings Esperanza flowers and offers to take her to her oncologist’s appointment. He says he is trying to make her current situation more bearable (llevadero).

Sueño de amor, Ep. 66 (6.9.16) What hurts the most are lies, someone please get Ricardo some morphine!
We start this episode visiting the Gallos, and Estrella is complaining that Erasmo, who just got the check from Pato last night, did it a little bit too late.
-Why?- Erasmo asks
-Well, because you could have done the same BEFORE ALL THIS STARTED (and spare me to go to Tamaulipas and service old guys against my will or you and Kiko die).
Why some people trust the police and some don't is not explained here, but I am sure that if she had reported Sansón on time, he could have been watched and/or arrested. Plan B could be getting help from Ricardo in his new justice avenger mode, but he no longer works in Vasconcelos, or does he? Is that school still open? I haven't heard anything about it anymore...
Oh, well, who am I kidding?... we have to make this last until mid september, right? Lala productos are not going to sell themselves!!

Yago #19: What would you do for your own child? 08 Jun 2016
More details of Lucio’s childhood and adolescence are revealed. Mati’s kidnapping forces him to be confronted by the memories of his relationship, or lack of relationship, with his family.
“The fear, insecurity, frustration, and envy that can destroy a human being and take him to the edge are the result of a childhood without love, and I know that better than anyone.” (El miedo, la inseguridad, la frustración, y envidia que puede destruir un ser humano y llevarlo al límite, son resultado de una crianza sin un amor, y yo lo sé mejor que nada.) – Lucio

Sueño de amor #65 Wed. 6/8/16
If this has 130 capítulos, we are at the half way point, if not, we must be approaching it. Tonight the scenes could not have been any shorter or choppier but in any case story continues on . . .
At the Nueva Luz shelter, Ricardo is still at it with Cristina and they continue bickering but finally stop to collaborate on trying to find Sandra the lost girl (with revenge on her mind). Cristina is concerned about her because she has suffered so much. Sandra is not from Mexico City and is not at her home in Puebla either. Does Cristina know of some place that Cristina likes in the city where she might have gone? She does not remember so Ricardo asks her her name as a kind of distraction that might help her remember. After fighting this technique at first, Cristina introduces herself. Ricardo looks surprised as he recognizes her as the super duper expert in pedagogy that Bárbara Santillana has been trying to track down for a while now which he tells her all about. Rodrigo explains his surprise by identifying himself as a teacher at the Instituto Palacios. He also tells Cristina, not wanting to offend her, that at the Instituto Palacios she already has a reputation as a witch. Well, she is offended but Ricardo's distraction technique worked because in th she does remember Sandra's favorite place. She looks happy about that but not so happy that his technique worked.

Tres Veces Ana - Episodes 17 - Jails, card readings and still no memory
Before you had time to recover from yesterday's episode that featured 44 minutes of Santi and Evaristo deeply staring in each other's eyes in the dark forest, Televisa brings you one where Santiago spends 44 minutes in jail waiting to be interrogated.
Let's start with important plot points we learned today to help us in deciphering what everyone's end game is.
In crazy oboe musician's memory, he is crying over Gina's coffin. Suddenly Marcelo and Mariano walk in. Cue angry stares, no doubt signaling we are about to witness Mexican standoff. Before we can though, memory cuts off.
Ramiro is remembering getting to the hospital after Gina's death. He sees Marcelo, asks him if he could see Gina. Ana Le helpfully volunteers that she saw Gina with a bottle of pills the other night. Isn't it how she died, darling? No, says Marcelo - Gina dies in her apartment from asphyxiation. She left a note. Side-comment: interesting suicide tactic. Judging from the rest of the episode, which you'll read about below, perhaps, indeed, Ana Le's plan of handing Gina pills did backfire, and in reality...could it be that Gina was killed by her own grandfather?? If so, why?
In any case, this was the exciting part, onward to the other 43 minutes then...

Tres Veces Ana - Episode 16 - Where it's all about Santi's memories and sad Ana Leticia
Hi everyone,
Sneaky is unable to watch/recap for us today, so I am putting up this short summary and we'll discuss away in the comments.
Since it worked so well last time, I will use the Game of Thrones character format (for those who read books), since that worked well last time. And - if anybody is watching current GOT season - it is moving just as slowly...

Yago #18, 6/6/16: Children Taken, Children Lost
Fidel lines up the kill shot to Julia Michel’s heart. She
has no idea her young life is about to end, as she enjoys street-side tacos
with her old friend Ambar and Ambar’s handsome new beau Yago. Fidel, fortified
by his memories of how Camilo Michel killed his three children in cold blood,
prepares to take the life of Camilo’s lone child without remorse. Suddenly,
another redhead appears in his sightline. Selma, his love, his mujer, stands
defiantly in front of clueless Julia, blocking Fidel’s shot. He calls Selma’s
cell phone and demands that she get out of the way. Selma tells him he’ll have
to shoot her too, if he wants to shoot Julia! Yago notices Selma’s presence,
and possibly notices the sniper on the roof across the street. He’s clearly
relieved when Julia’s bodyguards arrive and escort her safely away. Fidel
curses in frustration.

Rehash of Thursday:
Santi is discussing with Remedios why he remembers Ev (just
saw him, not actually recovering memory, Rem is disappointed). Santi needs to
talk to Ev, as he holds the only key to finding out who Santi was and why he
was with Rem’s husband in one car on the day of the accident.
Ev is huddling with the grandsons, tells them to follow Sole
and Ana Lu and watch out for Santi/Marcelo. Gives them Marcelo’s picture. What
should we do with him granddad? Why – kill, of course.

Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 16 (Jun 6, 2016)
There was a wedding--not the one we wanted.
There is no divorce--not what we wanted.
There was a reconciliation--not likely to last.
There is an illness--not one easily cured, to someone who doesn't deserve it.
There is a recovery--not quite 100%, but he's trying.
There are annoyances--none that we can control. We're on our way, deep into the weeds this week.
Join us on our Camino. It's not an easy one, by any means, but stick with us and we will get to our happy fin.

Sueno de amor, #63 Friday Espe is dying, Salma has a dying wish and Estrella is in mortal danger. The guys are mostly alright, though
Sorry for the delay, but here is Friday's recap.
For those who missed it the first time, we get another dose of kids violence, when Tracy screams at Selena and almost slaps her. Fortunately Anastasia is not a soulless bitch, too, because she defends the girl and after, she even reproaches Tracy her treatment. Mom of the year has no problem saying that she is bored and she despises her children, especially her daughter.
Selena runs to her room, crying with Rod and the maid, saying how much she misses her dad.
Estrella is with Sanson. She doesn't have the guts to hit him on the head with a pan, because she's terrified, but she becomes even more so when Sanson takes her picture and tells her what he plans to do with her: sell her to the highest bidder, because she's a hot commodity, being a virgin and so pretty (Damn you, Erasmo!).
Sanson adds that Estrella is five times more expensive than Erasmo's debt and if she says no, Kiko will suffer the consequences.

Selma reads a threatening letter that was written by someone called Fabiana . Fidel is leaving with his lover Selma disregarding the safety of his own family.

Sueño de amor, Ep. 62 (6.2.16) Tired of love triangles? Try love squares! They have more corners!
Happy teacher's day! Next holiday is father's day!
''Death is not true when you have accomplished well your life's work. We are what we remember of ourselves and we will be what others remember we were''. José Martí
(this episode aired two days after teacher's day in México)
''Death is not true when you have accomplished well your life's work. We are what we remember of ourselves and we will be what others remember we were''. José Martí
Hola, crapola
Whoever is editing this version is not doing a good job. Today, they started showing a couple seconds of Dr Mireya telling Adrián something about some son. Now I will never know and that was crucial for the story to move forward, who am I kidding? This thing is going nowhere! jajaja!
My secret video
We all know by now that the ''secret video'' Patanasia so much talked about for the last week, turned out to be a non explicit sex tape she recorded without Luca's consent in one of the many nights they had sex around the world, Paris, Egypt, Nicaragua, you know...
In a moment of anger, she sent it to Pato and now even Aranza is checking it out. The title: ''I know who you did last night''. Ternurita, poor Patanasia hopes this sex tape will land her a deal with a TV show like ''Al tanto con las Garnachas'', but I think is not worth even Cinemax time.
Like Pamela Anderson's, the video looks too well lit, edited and shot from different angles to be from a hidden camera. Anastasia sure knows how to show her best assets.
Here there's hidden cat, thinks Pato, Luca would never cheat on me with Adefesia, she is doing this just to annoy me, and ITS WORKING!!
Watching Anastasia dominating a submissive Luca didn't upset recently raped Aranza. I wonder what kind of therapy she's having or what's going on in that little mind of her...

Yago #15 Some Bullets for ya
So the Uni App sucks, I was about half way into the episode when it closed down and it wanted me to start the show over again and I can't because I'm at work. So here's what I did catch:
- Fidel's love is back, where has she been?
- Lorenzo made a run for it and now Lucio is on the hunt, he offers 500,000 pesos to the person that finds him.
- Bruno and Alejandra think there's something fishy with the nun that got transferred, they want to know where she went but they get no info from the head nun.
- We finally get some background on Katia! It seems that our dear Katia was once a hooker (high end), she met Yago at a casino when she tried to drug him, he gets her into rehab and later offers her a job and she becomes not just an employee but also a trusted friend, she views Yago as her brother.
Now the thing that got on my last nerve:
Yago is bonding with Sara, he confesses that he has feelings for her and that that is what's keeping him away from Ambar. Sara takes Yago to Omar's grave and tells him that Omar was the love of her life and that Lucio knows this and has always been jealous of dead Omar. She takes the blame for what happened to Omar and says he was too good to die such a horrible death in prison. She tells Yago that she killed Omar, whose only real mistake was falling in love with her- the day he met her was the day he started to die.
And then the Uni App crapped out on me! I'm going to try and watch the last 24 minutes of this, but for now feel free to discuss the episode!
Sueño de Amor 60: Ain't Nobody Got Time for That! Well, some do, some don't.
Esperanza doesn’t have time for Ricardo. She's not giving in and telling him the truth.
Ernesto has time for Esperanza. He sat with her for quite a while listening to her and trying to win her over.
Mario has time for Viviana and their blossoming relationship.
Jerónimo has time for the Gallo family as he visits with them as they discuss their problems.
Salma is a fourteen-year-old itching to get her fiesta on, but she doesn’t have time for Kiko.
Ricardo at first doesn’t have time to help at the women’s shelter but then has a change of heart.
Luca doesn’t have time for Pato because a message from la Nacha is freaking him out.
Tracy has time for wine, schemes, and intrigue with Nacha, but no time to be a mom.

Amor de Barrio Discussion Page: The Past Clashes With the Present
Amor de Barrio keeps chugging along at at nice pace. Some plots could do with a little more speed but others show no signs of slowing down. Let's get into it:
Laura is saved from confessing what she tol Ariel by Rosa who got drunk off the flask Monalisa left at the house. (She already has liver problems so I wonder if a transplant is in the near future). Raul offers to put her in a rehab center.
Blanca Estela is having trouble adjusting to life on the outside. A lot of people scare but she's trying to make the best of it.
Delfina confirms with Ariel that Laura caused the stroke and tells Tamara (I don't mind this plan of attack so much because it is actually 100% true).
Laura tells Paloma that Raul is seeing the social differences between them and they might not work out regardless of the sibling thing. (I don't know where Laura gets this from since that has never mattered to Raul. He only didn't want Laura close to Edmundo because has a history of violence). Paloma suggests a blood test which Laura will do once her mom tells her the truth.

Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 15 (May 30, 2016)
Blanca asks Fer if she’s ever been curious of who her real father might be? Fer answers no, never. Pedro is her only father. She doesn’t know what happened in the past. The important thing in her life is the present. That’s enough for her. They talk about Don Fer and how he was then and now. Fer thinks it’s funny he thinks he can convince Pedro to forgive Carlos, when he can’t forgive Pedro for what he supposedly did to her mother. Blanca says Pedro is a saint, everyone knows it, including Amelia. Fer says if only Amelia had told her father how things really happened back then, their lives would be very different. Don Fer would have Pedro on a pedestal.
Carlos
arrives and greets the two of them. Blanca leaves them. Carlos said he talked
to Jay and he told him about Pedro getting upset because he and Fer had reconciled. Fer doesn’t know what to do.
Pedro just doesn’t want them to be together. He hugs her and kisses her. He can see it’s causing her some distress and
he’s sure that if he could talk to Pedro, they could clear it all up. Fer
doesn’t think it’s a good idea. He was just released that morning.

As Santiago and Ana Lucia, aka Ana Lucky, express their shared relief in finding each other again, Soledad enters the hallway. She is stir-fried-fit-to-be-tied impactada, seeing THE MAN hugging and kissing on HER DAUGHTER. (What a waste of a good high-tail it outta town plan, eh, Sole?) She growls at Santi to back off Ana Lucky. Ana Lucky heads back to the room with her towels. Remedio’s watches a bit at the nasty interplay between Sole and San, then heads off to chat up Ana Lucky.

Amor De Barrio Discussion Page: Paloma & Daniel Get Together As Laura & Raul Drift Further Apart
Hello Everyone!
Here are the barrio happenings and goings of the last two days:
Monalisa brings a flask of alcohol to Rosa's house but she doesn't drink it. (It seems that losing her memory has been the best thing to ever happen to Rosa since she now sees people for what they truly are). She hides the flask in her trinket box though so she's not out of the woods yet.
The cop in charge of Rosa's case goes to the La Luciernaga in order to tell Edmundo that, while Dr. Serapio is dead, he was a patron at the club and maintained an affair with one of his workers and he intends to find out who it was. Edmundo tells the cop he doesn't know anything. When the cop leaves though, Edmundo tells Monalisa that he knows she was his lover and to be careful with what she does.
Rodrigo tries another strategy with Paloma: friendship and she agrees. He then tells Tico that he'd rather be in the friend zone for now than be out of her life completely if he pushes too hard romantically.

Pato ''se anduvo haciendo pato'' (was fooling around) so she could hear the conversation between Mapa and Ernesto. Esperanza said that in her house nobody lies, but is not true, because she is hurting Ricardo more hiding the truth from him than if she told him she has cancer. One day she was ready to be with him on sickness and health and suddenly she is stealing that from him.
Ernesto's idea of rekindling their dream of love (only for show) so Ricardo can convince himself he is no longer wanted in her life (or what's left of it), doesn't fit Esperanza's plans. One moment looks like she takes a side with Ernesto to make Ricardo go away but then she changes back. Pato supports that idea because she thinks her father is a hero.
Choose wisely: Ernesto means more days in your life but Ricardo means more life in your days. What will it be? Die happy or die sad?

TELEMUNDO Y MÁS (#2): Eva la Trailera, La Esclava Blanca, El Señor de los Cielos #4 and ¿Quién es Quién?: Week of May 23, 2016
TELEMUNDO WEEKEND EDITION (continuación)
Here's Page 2 for the week.
The current novelas include the following (all times are Eastern Time):
• 12-2 pm—¿Quién Es Quién?
• 8 pm—Eva la Trailera
• 9 pm—La Esclava Blanca
• 10 pm—El Señor de los Cielos
Everyone is welcome to join in the conversation. Since discussions of all the Telemundo novelas share the same page, please remember to put the name of the telenovela you're discussing at the top of your post, so readers can easily find the discussions they're looking for.
Don't forget, the evening programming for Friday(only) is given over to specials; so no Eva, Esclava or Señor on Friday. I assume regular programming will resume next Monday.

Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 14 (May 23, 2016) Second Half
EPISODE
#66 (Thu May 26)
A representative of Child Welfare Services, a uniformed officer and a notebook lady have shown up in the middle of Clarita and Cesar’s reception. The rep addresses Marissa and wants to speak to Carlos. She says he’s not at home, but she can speak for him. She leads them in the house. The rep states Carlos has been keeping an unaccompanied minor in the home. Marissa is cooperative. Yes, Carlos brought home a homeless youngster, but is planning to adopt him.
The rep says that is the problem. There are no papers on file so they have to take the boy to a childrens shelter. Marissa doesn’t think that should be necessary. He’s well taken care of in their home, but they will have the family lawyer file the right papers in the morning. Rep lady says that doesn’t conform to the law. They have to take him now.

Carlos
and Fer are still standing together away from the crowd at the reception. He tells her she hasn’t said whether they are
novios again or not. She laughs and tells him for good or bad, yes. Carlos
questions the “bad” part. Fer says it’s just a saying, like for good or bad,
she loves him, for good or bad she can’t be without him, for good or bad she
accepts being his novia again. They are both glowing, radiant in the heat of love.
Carlos leans over for a kiss. [Ahem—I thought I saw a little tongue action there!] He’s
the happiest man in the world.

Amor De Barrio Discussion: "Golpes Que Da La Vida"
Hello Everyone!
I recently started watching Amor de Barrio and spent all this past week catching up on past episodes to be able to watch it live, hopefully with all of you.
I was pleasantly surprised by what I saw because, while this is a "traditional" novela rosa (with plenty of cliches) they are either handled in a fresh way or are revealed so quickly it never weighs down the story. I also love that both female protagonists, Paloma and Laura, are career women who go out into the world and the galanes are to brain dead insecure men who believe hearsay.
It is also the first novela in 9 years for Roberto Hernandez Vazquez, who last produced Heridas de Amor.
This is my first summary/blog so bear with me, please. This is a summary of the first 35 episodes so here goes nothing!
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paloma Madrigal is a muchacha de barrio that recently finished her specialty in criminal law and needs to win her first case in order to get a job at a respectable law office. The case she chooses is that of Blanca Estela Bernal whom was unjustly imprisoned by Catalina Lopezreina for killing Catalina’s husband, Saul.
Catalina blamed Blanca Estela for Saul’s murder because Blanca Estela refused to tell Catalina where Saul’s lover, Dalia and her son, Rodrigo, were hiding. Blanca Estela, pregnant with Paloma, told her husband, Gustavo, everything was true when she was condemned to life in prison. She gave Paloma to Gustavo as soon as she was born WITHOUT knowing her if she gave birth to a boy or girl. Gustavo then told their children that their mom died during Paloma’s birth.

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #55. Tuesday May 24, 2016. Esperanza Makes Lying a Family Affair, Erasmo Tells the Truth
This recap was brought to you by our recapper and Patio regular, Kinomathematika! Enjoy!
Ricardo is still trying to reach Esperanza. Pedro doesn’t answer him, either. He doesn’t know what to tell the priest. Margarita goes to him asking if the bride had second thoughts.
Esperanza is at home and says that she loves Ricardo too much to obligate him to marry someone who will die in months. She’s going to wither and wear away. I don’t want the love of my life to be witness to my deterioration. She asked Pato and Pedro forgiveness. They told her she had nothing to ask forgiveness for. She thinks she has to sacrifice herself for Ricardo. Pato tells her that Ricardo needs her, but Esperanza says that Ricardo doesn’t need someone who’s dying (moribunda). She says she’s doing it for him to be with his children and for him to be happy. Destiny wants them to be apart. She asks them to help her hide the truth.
Pedro tells her that even though they aren’t in agreement with her plan, they will help if it calms her. She tells him to call Ricardo to tell him to come over, that she needs to talk to him alone.

Tres Veces Ana - Episodes 3 & 4
Hello everyone! While Sneaky two shoes gets a recap ready for us, here is a discussion page on episodes 3 and 4, in which we get a first kiss (!!) and find out that Soledad is darker than we thought and is somehow involved with the whole Santiago/Marcelo story line.
We also find out that Ana Lucia is not your typical TN protagonist and will not be confused by random blabbering. When Soledad spins a made up sad story of a neighbor named Sofia, after calling Ana Lucia the name of her dead daughter, Ana Lucia says it's sad, but she doesn't know how this is related to anything!

Tres Veces Ana, 5/23/16: Premier, Episodes 1&2
Hello Patio Peeps! While the recapping team for Tres Veces Ana (Sneaky2Shoes, Ria, and Jardinera) gets themselves together and figure out their recapping schedule (team members are still needed), I'm posting this discussion page for the first episodes. These two episodes, we pretty much got everything that was in this synopsis.
The Short Version:
In addition to what's already in the synopsis, we learned that: Uncle Mariano is a womanizer; Ana Lucia is in a love triangle with her two besties and doesn't know it; Ana Lucia was taught to read palms by the local nice bruja (Chana), and she's REALLY good at it; Ana Leticia was the one who caused the accident with her parents and sisters; all three sisters suffer from nightmares; it's been three years since Marcelo "died" and was reborn Santiago; Remedios' husband was with Santiago when he had his accident and he died, but not before warning Remedios that Marcelo/Santiago is in great danger and she needed to care for him; and Ramiro almost married a con woman a few years ago, found out the truth, realized his love for Ana Laura, dumped his lying fiance at the altar, and she then committed suicide (bummer).
The Long Version (debut recap by Ria):
