Sueño de amor, Ep. 77 (6.30.16) While Esperanza almost dies, Ricardo lures Cristina to his bedroom (el muerto al pozo y el vivo al gozo).
We start this episode with a visit to the precinct, where Ricardo Alegría Sandoval (ex ''secret'' agent turned teacher) and Cristina Vélez Valderrama (the firewoman of education/life guru to raped girls), are reporting to Gilberto Rentería de la Fuente (tired of seeing Ricardo's mug even in the soup), the assault she suffered in hands of her ex husband Oscar Sousa Villaurrutia (women abuser slash bastard kidnapper). Luckily for her, super duper agent and justice avenger Ricardo Alegría Sandoval was there to save her in the nick of time and now he is getting a call from Baxter Bestertester (who will probably lose his job for doing things he shouldn't be doing), who has seen Abril Sousa Vélez somewhere in Colonia del Valle.
Since the girl is alive and there's no time to lose, the couple that used to hate each other but are now reunited by the circumstances, take off to look for her, leaving the report for another time (that if the writers remember to tie this loose end, if not, they'll forget about it and will never be mentioned like happened to Instituto Vasconcelos. Have you heard from it lately?)
Baxter's pictures show the girl and then an old woman grabbing her. Could it be that Oscar has a nanny to take care of her?

Yago, #27, Wednesday 6/29/16: The Bad Penny
Hi everybody. I was at Best Buy tonight, and I saw Lucio's new smart TV. Or should I say, his ex-TV.
Fidel's having a flashback. A young man is making a quick buck challenging people to a shell game in the park. A young Fidel watches for a while and decides to play. Naturally, he loses. The next customer, a young Camilo, also loses, but does not accept his loss as gracefully as Fidel did. He pulls a knife on the cheater. Fidel comes forward and asks for the honor of the first punch. They smack the guy up, take his money, and run off. Camilo thanks Fidel for his help, and a forevermore friendship is born. Oh and they both have lucky coins. Watch those coins!
In the present, Fidel fingers a coin and tells Yago that his best friend became his worst enemy. That man was Camilo Michell. (Fidel cuts Raul's corpse loose from the chair.) "You have your own revenge to complete," Yago acknowledges. "It's time to begin," Fidel says, stuffing the coin into the dead man's pocket.

Tres Veces Ana - Episode 29 - Evil plans and tearful good-byes
Mariano’s future love interest (we can only assume based on
the supposed amount of dislike being thrown around) Viviana is having lunch
with Julietta, who happens to be Daniel’s mother. Julietta laments her son is
not the same ever since falling in love with Ana Leticia. They spend some time
discussing her tragic fate of losing her husband after just one year and sounds
like in light of that Julietta is giving her a break. Viviana thinks that
perhaps Daniel might have another chance with Ana Le.

Sueño de amor #76 Wed. 6/29/16
So, here we go! I had some technical difficulties tonight. Let us just say, my recording was less than ideal.
The surgery has started. Ernesto is being supportive not just with opening his wallet but to Pato and also Pedro as his own children. They all have high hopes for Esperanza's survival.
Long hours of surgery . . . .
Pedro talks out his problems with Kristel with Ernesto. Pablo is reluctant to have any involvement with her because of the possibility of her blackmailing him using her depression and not eating.
At Margarita's house, Kristel is bemoaning her solo state without boyfriends. Her whole family cheers her and tells her how much they love her. Although smiling, on the inside Silvana is happy Kristel has ended up alone.

Yago #26. Tuesday June 28, 2016. The Pawns Are Turning Against Their King
Hello Patio Pals! We’ll have to make do with a summary until a volunteer takes over this recapping spot.
Lorenzo is the one who received a bullet as a result of the scuffle with Teo. The next scene shows medical personnel scrambling to save a patient who went into cardiac arrest. Lorenzo starts narrating: Ever since he lost his father, he has been wondering how his own death would be like. Would his dad be waiting for him in the great beyond? The patient is revived. Unfortunately, it’s that old crook Damián. Young Lorenzo is well and truly dead. Abel is devastated following the loss of his vato/young man, his “keed” (kid). Teo apologizes. Abel says he is the one who failed Lorenzo. He is equally responsible for the death of Lorenzo, just as he is to blame for the death of Lorenzo's father, Facundo. Later on, when Abel and Teo prepare to bury the body in the woods, Abel removes Lorenzo’s chain, the one that once belonged to his dad. He grabs Lorenzo’s lifeless face between his hands and, fighting back the tears, he bids him farewell: “Hey kid! I hope that you’re finally going to be OK, that you will be with your Papá and that you’re finally at peace. I also hope we see each other again, somewhere, some time.” In a later scene, Abel visits Facundo’s grave to give him back his son’s chain, the chain of “their” kid. He assures him that not a day goes by where he doesn’t think about him. If there is justice in this life, Abel knows he will be punished for what he did. Getting his just deserts will be a relief for Abel. He would finally be at peace.

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #75. Tuesday June 28, 2016. Have Faith In Your Dreams, Especially The Ones Where You Don't Die
Hello Patio Pals! We’ll have to make do with a summary until a volunteer takes over this recapping spot.
Kracy calls her kids to taunt them: Did they get a chance to see Filomena, the venomous froggy Mommy left in the house? Ricardo takes the phone away from Rodrigo and forbids Kracy to talk to his kids. He sends a text message to Baxter asking him to locate (ubicar) Kracy’s phone number. Kracy is in Mexico City, comes back Baxter’s answer, almost instantly. Kracy threatens to kill Ricardo with one shot to the forehead. After she hangs up, Ricardo phones Baxter to ask for another “favor”: Please find Cristina’s missing kid and let Tricky Ricky get all the credit and grateful nookie.
Ernesto brings Esperanza flowers and accompanies her to church along with Pato and Pedro. In case you’re wondering, no, the walls didn’t bleed when the handsome devil walked into church. A two-minute praying scene to La Virgen de la Paz ensues.

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #74. Monday June 27, 2016. Nothing Like A Solid Slab of Lala Cheese To Free You From These Love Pains!
 |
| Ah the joys of villana-imposed parenthood! |
At a glance
-- When lies, blackmail, guilt and murder all fail to heal heartache and lovesickness, one must turn to Lala’s delightful range of dairy delectables for comfort! Because a gassy stomach will always distract you from a broken heart!
A closer look
Cristina crosses paths with Óscar, her abusive ex-hubby, at the shopping mall. He is going up the stairless escalator, rocking his signature salt-n-pepper quirky quiff. She is coming down the stairless escalator, slaying that nude-colored dress whose plasticky fabric hugged, nay, suffocated, her pneumatic curves. She sees Óscar’s face clearly (we don’t), recognizes him immediately and runs after him. When she finally catches up to him, it turns out he is some other dude. Two questions boggle and perplex the viewers at this point:

Yago, #25, Monday 6/27/16: "Doesn't it feel good to tell the truth?"
Hold onto your hats. When Yago characters show up for an episode, they mean business!
We begin with a memory. I hadn't yet figured out how to do captions during this part so I'm not sure exactly what was said, nor even whether it was Yago's memory or Lucio's. But Yago and Lucio are playing in Jonas's workshop, and then Lucio is getting scolded by his mother (or grandmother). Yago says Lucio should have thought twice before betraying Omar.
In the present, Lucio's had a giant smart TV delivered. What a great daddy! What a nice house full of fine things!
Alejandra/Susana and Damian/Rufino chat in Dam's car. He invites himself to her apartment, but she says no, her roommates are too nosy. Dam says congratulations, you passed my first test. Now pass my second test: give me your real name. Ale says she'll tell him hers if he tells her his. Dam says he's Oscar Bravo. (Oh, come on. And I'm Juliet Sierra! Meet my friend, Victor Whiskey X-Ray Yankee Zulu!) She says she's Felicia Requena. "Doesn't it feel good to tell the truth?" Damian asks. She gets out of the car and pretends to fumble with her keys as he drives off. Then she takes off down the street. Dam in fact only pretended to drive away; now he follows her on foot.

Also, consolidating some scenes below, so don't be thrown off by that!
Creepy Isidro and Rodrigo (Abue's former beau) are discussing the sale of Creesidro's lands. Creesidro did not anticipate selling that soon and wants to wait. Suddenly Ramiro appears and is introduced as Rodrigo's new accountant. Rodrigo asks Ramiro to walk Creesidro to his taxi and then return. The taxist is, as we remember, Santiago. Of course right then, the hotel doorman asks Santi to do a lap around the building and not occupy the space in front of hotel. Just as he takes the said lap, he of course misses both Ramiro and Isidro, so once again the best friend reunion is successfully avoided by the telenovela deities.

Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 19 (June 27, 2016) 1st Half
We left off with Fernanda conducting the inmate orchestra and playing her violin for the Directora of the Prison and various inmates who chose not to register. It sounded pretty professional. La Malquerida got to sing. She has a lovely voice. This can only result in lifting the spirits and self-esteem of the inmates. For Fernanda personally, we will have to wait and see. She has a lot of juggling--Carlos & Marissa, Amelia, Maribel, La Malquerida, Felipe. Since she told off Camila, she has no idea what has happened to our Junior lying traitor. She has no idea what Luis is up to, nor Mariana.
Glory be, the only thing grand that happened on Friday is that Pedro found Don Fernando in The Only Asylum in Mexico that needed landscaping.
There will be plenty to discuss, so carry on, Caminantes.

Tres Veces Ana #21: SHOW ME THE MONEY!
Wellllllll..it would seem that Orlando is Hell bent on cashing in on other people’s strife with his proof of life that Ana Lucia is alive!!!!!!! He tells Ramiro he wants A-Lucky’s rich relatives to ante up antes or nothin’ doin’. Ram feels deceived! Well he was, says Orly. She’s his friend and he only wanted to protect her and he was scared for her! Ram says show me this photo or I go. Ok. Orly opens his phone and shows him a photo of A-Lucky at a danse class rehearsal. Wow! The likeness! It’s her! She really is alive! Oh, and BTW, she has no memory of the accident Ram’s been talking about. Oka, then why is she still called Ana Lucia if she doesn’t have any memory of her past? Seems she was wearing some bracelet with her name on it.
Ok. So, Ana-Lu is having problems concentrating on her new acrobatic project. AniBal, aka AniBaldy, screams at her that her friend has her head on straight and so should she! Maribel secretly smiles a contemptuous grin as Ana takes it verbally on the chin. Later in break Bel beams at her friend and asks where she was and what’s going on inside her head. Ana-Lu lies that Santiago took her to San Nicolas to pick up cash owed by Dona Chana. And Orlando? Oh, they had it out with him. The guy’s nuts! He sliced Santi’s 4 tires all to hell! Just out of jealousy! “-Tough nuts! I’ve never led him on!” Well, Bel left town without word cuz she was mad at the dude for ignoring her affections. She here now with her BFF pursuing her dream!

 |
| ¡Ándale, Poison Froggy! I'll give you a million meaty flies if you get him between the eyes! |
At a glance
-- Kracy's death-by-froggy murder plan failed. Ricardo lives. ¡Maldita sea! Bloomin' heck!
-- Pouty Pato and Loopy Luca call off their wedding. ¡Enhorabuena! Congratulations!
-- The new opening credits indicate it's very likely that the insipid twosome, Cristina and Ricardo, end up together. ¡Da igual! Makes no difference!
A closer look
It’s breakfast time at Casa Guerrero. Anastasia shows up with the wee tot in her arms. She wants him to meet his Auntie Pato, soon-to-be ex-fiancée of his father. Anastasia introduces the baby as Luca, named after his daddy, obviously. She also adds that the unlucky father has already met his Mini-Me. Pato is so shocked and saddened, she starts sobbing. Esperanza accuses Anastasia of renting the baby, as her latest ploy to separate
the PatoLuca pair.

'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.

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.

To no avail.

-- 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.

| 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?

Sorry for the reshuffling of the episodes this week, everybody. We should be back to business in our usual order after this week!
I also apologize that I haven't had a chance to read the two previous recaps and comments and will do so tomorrow. So excuse any comments that have been discussed already.
And so we tune in for a Thursday fix of TVA as Soledad continues to stress over potentially losing Ana Lu as Santiago will separate g them. Ana Lu is very confused and explains about the photo. Soledad continues to worry that Santiago will bring them doom and gloom and world as they know it will implode.

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''

Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 17 (June 13, 2016) 2nd Half
#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
-- We got a Lala milk commercial with plenty of filler scenes.
-- Pedro breaks up with Princess Confundida. Tee hee hee.
-- Osorio keeps torturing his heroine in his bid to capture ratings at any cost.
A closer look
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!!

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...

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.

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.

- A lot of scenes from previous episode were repeated
- This episode focuses on Fidel. We learn that he had a large family of four children(I got confused on the exact number) and a ex wife named Raquel. On the daughters BD Camilo's men disrupt the party forcing a very young Fidel to grab a gun. He opens fire in the sky damning Camilo with his strength. 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. Selma tried to warn him but Fidel did not listen. Raquel took care of the children while they were running away but on the way there Fidel calls Raquel to check on his kids only to learn that they were attacked. Camilo's men catch up to them dragging Selma's daughter . We don't learn of her fate ( I'm speculating that the missing daughter was Julia.) . Later there was a funeral done by Jewish traditions. All of his male children got knocked off
- Teo informs Yago about Lorenzo. He tells him that Abel chased Teo away all while taking his phone. Yago mourns that Abel changed so much clearly shocked that Abel can sleep at nights. Teo mopes that they lost their only witness of the crime but atleast Melina will not be in danger anymore. Teo also warns Yago that their revenge will be a much more bloody journey.

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...
