Vino el Amor #40, December 27, 2016: Vino el New and Improved Competition

Repeated scenes:

Joselo keeps calling Gracie while she's on her date with Cesar. Cesar offers to tell him to stop stalking her. Heh.
Bobby correctly senses that Luciana is more into older men like Miguel and is going to ditch him. Ha ha, actually he is just sad and missing his mom and afraid Luciana will leave, but he tells her to go and that he never wants to talk to her again.
The Sunday date for Marta and Gutierrez finally happened! It's sooo awkward with Leon there, but no Luciana as Bobby has detained her. Luckily Gutierrez is saved by the bell again, as Lilian threatens him if he doesn't get over to their date and now.

This episode (a few scenes combined):

No-game Cesar tries to flirt with Gracie and it's painful to be her and for the viewer to watch.
Gutierrez pretends that the police station called him and tells Marta and Leon that he must go. It's just the nature of his job. Leon understands but Marta protests, because Luciana hasn't gotten there yet. Gutierrez thought she was in San Francisco. Marta says she wanted to surprise him. Now Gutierrez really explains that when the police station calls, the policeman must go. (Yes, he's lying, but I can see why Leon bought it.)

Vino el Amor, Lunes 12/26/16 Chapter 39: I Don't Want to Talk to You

David thanked Luciana for coming back to help Bobby. They looked about to kiss when Gracie came in with fake cheer to greet her and thank her for coming to help Bobby. One more gesture of possession and one more mention of “family” later from her and Luciana took her leave. David saw Gracie grin over this as Luciana slipped away. He still didn't seem to get it.

Vino el Amor, Episode 38 Friday, 12/23/16

Episode 38, coming to you from Sonia. Enjoy!

David is livid, livid, LIVID. Susan is trying to keep the peace and justify Luciana and Miguel’s trip to San Francisco. Susan asks why he is so upset that Luciana and Miguel left. He says it's because with this Luciana is confirming that she would do whatever to be with Miguel. Why does David like to complicate his life? His relationship with her is changing ever since she started seeing Miguel. “Isn’t it a good thing that she found someone as good as Miguel though?”, Susan reasons. Juan comes into the lab with the excuse that there is a problem with the bank. As we saw in the last episode, Juan is getting rid of David to help Grace with her little Joselo problem.

Vino el Amor, Wednesday 12/21/2016; Chapter 37

David is having a chat with his wisest friend Cesar. David shares that he has come to the realization that he has to let go of Luciana. Cesar says he really should have a talk with Fernanda about his feelings and maybe little by little things will change. But David says he can’t do that. However his feelings for Luciana are just so very, very, strong, it just drives him crazy! So he has to learn to let go of her. Cesar asks why he just doesn’t talk to Luciana about it. David responds that it’s not going to amount to anything. He’s never met a woman like her, she challenges me and he’s a little afraid of that. But David admits he’s VERY much in love with Luciana. He admits also that Luciana changed his life forever and for that, he will always be grateful. But he can’t expect Fernanda to change her mind very quickly and he can’t expect Luciana to wait for him forever.

Vino el Amor, #36, December 20, 2016: Vino el Crazy in Love

Repeated scenes:

Miguel and Luciana kiss and Grumpy David grumps and goes back to work.
Lilian and Sonia giggle over all the men competing for Lilian.
Susan and Grumpy David actually talk actual work but of course that turns into talking about Luciana and Susan's love lives.
Luciana confronts Gracie over the guest list omission, and Gracie admits that she wants David for herself. And there's nothing Luciana can do about it!

This episode (some scenes combined):

Grumpy David realizes that Susan is bringing her personal issues into her insights into David and Luciana's relationship. He softens his tone and tells her she can count on him and that he appreciates her work (maybe because she is one of the few employees who actually does any?)
Leon is all excited because Sonia is after him and that might make Carito be more into him. Tano and I FF>>

Vino El Amor #34 - Friday 12/16/16 Lucia & Miguel heat up and David gets heated!

David may have gotten to feast on Grace's girls, but it would appear they have nothing on a fully clothed Luciana, who is simply beautiful and radiant in her dress. Wowie..wow..wow! Is the look on David's face and he looks every bit as delicious as ever.

Miguel comes in to interrupt (This guy has the worst timing ugh!) and tells David the van has arrived. Marta comes down and says Fernanda will be down soon and she's going to go up and get ready herself. Lucia says she'll go help her and they'll see the guys over there later. Both men watch Lucia walk away and Miguel watches her like she's a steak dinner he's going to have later, complete with a little lip lick. All he needs is a bib and knife and fork. Sorry, patio fans his leering creeps me out. He's waaay too in to her. I prefer David's, more restrained I-want-to-touch-you-so-bad-it-hurts body language.

Vino el Amor; Wednesday, 12/14/2016 chapter 32: Graciela Manipulates, gets her Way

Luciana walks up to David and she tells him he is right. David says that’s the first time he’s ever heard her say that. She explains that since this is his business and vineyard, but if Gracie is going to be doing what she is doing, then Luciana wants no part of the project. David says, “Well this is very unprofessional on your part.” Luci says she just doesn’t like Gracie and from day one, Gracie has never treated her with respect. The second reason is that she is not in agreement with Gracie’s point of view regarding the creative aspects of this project. David says that they can integrate both points of view and he really needs her professional expertise. Then he pulls his trump card, the “Remember, your father Marcos was part of all this too. But it’s your decision, Luciana.”

Repeated scenes:

Juan "compliments" Lilian on her calculatedness.
Gutierrez comes to the Lisa memorial, Lilian oozes all over him and Marta gives him the stink-eye.
Luciana has stupidly concluded that because David's kids are still sad about their mom, she can never be with David.
Miguel has hired temps and they panicked when they saw Gutierrez come to the house.
Gracie looks like she's going to give grumpy David a big old kiss...

This episode (some scenes combined):

...but she backs off at the last second, saying she knows he doesn't really want that. He agrees. Fer interrupts them. Gracie lets Fer know she's not going to Spain, but will stay in Sonoma to be with the family. Fer is thrilled. David tells Fer to give them a moment. After Fer leaves, David wonders why Gracie wants to sacrifice her career in painting. Also, Gracie is beautiful and has a lot to offer; she shouldn't be alone. Gracie tells David not to worry about any of that.

Vino el Amor-Episode #29 - Friday 12/9/2016: Confession is good for...nothing; neither is kissing a guy because you are trying to forget the other one

Luciana finishes confessing to Susan that David it too far out of reach of her heart. Susan brings up Miguel. Luci shuts her down, telling her they can talk later because she needs to get back to work.

Perla has been waiting for Juan in his former, now current again, office. Squeeee! She’s excited he got his job back. Juan is feeling smugly triumphant (he quickly forgot it was through Grace’s, not his, efforts, that got his job back). He’s still pissed at her for telling David she’s in love with him. It only complicates matters. From now on, he states, everything is to be done his way, especially since David has assigned Susan and that imbecile Miguel to supervise him. He adds, somewhat dreamily, that he has a much bigger objective now and they can’t make any mistakes. Perla seems a little less certain now that she’s willing to do anything for him.

David storms into the big house, Grace a half a step behind him. She can tell something is amiss. He claims it’s just been a complicated day. He does thank her for helping him do the right thing in giving Juan his job back. She says she’s only demonstrating that she’s there for him, in business, family matters, and—fluttering her eyes—the personal. David seizes the opportunity to ask a favor of Grace. Anything, she says, still fluttering her eyes. He tells her she’s never to embrace him like that again. He doesn’t want anyone to get the wrong idea. He leaves her standing there, eyes unfluttered.

Vino el Amor - Episode #28 - Thursday 12/8/2016: The Shirtless Dueling Dudes

Hello everyone! Happy [Belated] Thursday! This fabulous recap is brought to you by Our Sonia and not Mi Senor's Sonia (thank goodness).

Miguel and Luciana are cute. Miguel is an upstanding guy as far as I’m concerned, a little whiny but an overall good guy. Luci and Mig are at the lab and Luciana is obviously jealous that David is with Grace. Despite the obviousness, Mig still feels the need to ask Luciana if she is jealous. David and Grace come into the lab. David wants Luciana to teach Grace the ropes of the vineyard. Luciana isn’t pleased. Grace is filled with annoying questions and the worst part is the Grace knows it. She wants to know if Luciana could do her job at another vineyard. Luciana makes it clear that she isn’t leaving because the land is important to her. And while Grace wants to “learn” about Luci’s life story, Luciana is more interested in why Graciela came back in the first place. “I came back to be with my family. To protect them.” Grace sneers at Luci. I got goose bumps. Graciela isn’t some I would want to cross. But Luciana holds her own. “Well me too.”

Vino el Amor #27 Wednesday 12/7/16: Juan Manipulates and Blackmails

Juan and Perla come up with a plan because Perla is willing to do anything to help him. She says he can really count on her.

The plan seems to be for Perla to go to David and for her to admit that she was the one who ordered the illegal pesticides. She tearfully tells David it was all her fault. David says that Juan still bears the final responsibility. Then he asks Perla how it was that she came up with that supplier to order the pesticide. She draws a blank and the crickets start chirping. David figures out she is trying to cover for Juan and then asks why. She admits that it’s because she loves Juan. But David’s decision is made. Juan is still fired but Perla still has her job. She leaves in tears.

Vino el Amor #26, December 6, 2016: Vino el Pink Slip and a Lot of Hollering

First, thank you to Anita for filling in for me on last Tuesday's show! This one may be a bit shorter than normal; still catching up on life post-vacation.

Repeated scenes:

Luciana fills in Marta and wants to know what Marta and Liliana were fighting about before Marta's collapse. Marta says she will tell her.
Perla gets a call from Carito, who tells her Juan was fired and she could be next

This episode (some scenes combined):

Bobby is afraid Marta will die. Fer tries to reassure him. Sonia brings them food and tries to kiss up to them. Gracie comes in and tries to reassure the kids. Bobby doesn't understand why his grandmother hates Marta so much and says that each day he hates his grandmother more.
Luciana blows a gasket when Marta tells her a very watered-down version of the conversation with Liliana. (Basically, Marta tells her that Liliana thinks Marta was after her husband.) Luciana clearly doesn't believe that Marta could do such a thing and wants to go after Liliana. Marta is able to calm Luciana down by playing it all as something that happened years ago. Luciana says the most important thing is that Marta gets better. Marta says it's most important to her that Luciana will stay.

Vino el Amor 11/30/2016, chapter #23: Confession is good for the Soul
Miguel and Luciana continue walking through the vineyard and he tells her that he defended her to David and told David that he truly loves Luciana. She says she is very thankful and appreciates him. But Miguel tells her that love is just not thankful, it searches the highest and does even more. He even told David that he loves Luciana, but she looks a little uncomfortable. Luciana is visibly shaken and Miguel asks her what’s wrong. Luciana says it’s because David doesn’t approve of love relationships between employees. Miguel counters that it should no longer be a problem since she is no longer working there and neither will Miguel soon. Miguel continues that David told him that he made a big mistake blaming Luciana and wanted her to stay, she said no. Miguel asks, “What this is all about?” Is this over her pride or other things, like her doubts that they had previously discussed concerning their relationship. Luciana says that this is the only thing left to do is leave.

Vino el Amor 11/29/16 Chapter 22: Where in the World is Sonia?

Some scenes have been combined.

El Pasado

Lilian and Gutierrez in bed. Euww, yuck, better to just close your eyes and listen to the Brit and the Anglo-Hispanic whisper sweet nothings (and nothing it is).
Fernanda and Friends and Margaritas. Tipsy, topsy, mopsies talk about unrequited love--Fer’s, that is.

El Presente

Patio denizens finally get the skinny on Tano’s mother. Ramón has been telling Tano he wants him to further his education, not because he isn’t proud of him, but he wants him to get ahead. Tano wants to send his mother some money because her birthday is coming soon and he hopes it doesn’t bother Ramón too much. He replies, that no, even though they ended it (terminaron—maybe it’s a euphemism for divorced) a long time ago, he thinks strong family ties are important and should be maintained. Tano adds that he is grateful to Marta for the affection she showed him growing up here and grateful to his dad for making sure he never lacked for anything.

Fer is staggering home in the full light of day. She stops by the fountain at the foot of the long drive up to the house to call Tano on her cell. He isn’t answering. She’s surely suffering from a hangover and is contentedly pissed. She leaves him a voice mail saying that she has something very important to tell him and if he doesn’t answer, she’ll just march (stagger) up to his house.

Lillian announced the theft of Lisa's earrings and that all employees' possessions would be searched. As she did so she and the younger vitches all stared at Luciana while Marta and Susan looked around in disbelief.

Graciela was congratulating Fernanda, who wasn't entirely alright with this. She got up to go to tell her father the truth. Graciela stopped her before she could leave the room. Fernanda was concerned at how this would hurt Marta, whom she loved. [Does this girl have redeeming qualities after all? ¡Que sorpresa!] Graciela said “Sometimes we have to do things that aren't so good. When you have an objective everything is worth it. What we want is for Luciana to get out of here. Yes or no?.”

Vino el Amor 11/23/16: # 19 “Deceits, Disappointments, and Acknowledgements”

Tonight's episode is brought to you by Cynthia. Enjoy!

Well there’s a party going on, everyone is slow dancing and swaying to the music, including Luciana and Miguel. Mig keeps telling her how much he loves and enjoys being with her. We also see Sonia dancing by herself in the background, really looking goofy because she is somewhat buzzed. All of a sudden David walks up and in a gruff sounding voice calls for Luciana! Well that killed the party mood and Leon walks over to the CD player and turns it off. Then Sonia comes stumbling forward in her obviously drunken mode to say: “Senor, I SWEAR to you that I didn’t want to! But they convinced me to dance. Please forgive me.” (She hangs her head in shame. What a silly girl.) They all explain that this was just to relax after finding out that the vineyard was not going to be sold. David tells them it is okay and to go on with their party. But tomorrow he wants everyone available to give their 100%. Miguel assures them that the crew will be there all giving 100%. Then he says to Luciana that he wants to speak with her. She says no, she will talk to him during working hours tomorrow. David finally leaves and excuses himself. Susan and Miguel come running up wanting to know what he said to Luciana. She just tells them that she didn’t know and that she told him to talk to her tomorrow during regular working hours. Luciana tells Miguel she is not going to let anything ruin this night. Miguel and Luciana go back to dancing.

Vino el Amor 11/21/16 Episode 17 Out of the Mouths of Babes

This episode is by Sonia, who did this one by accident, so I get this week off.

Family outing time!! But Fernanda isn’t going if Luciana is. Luciana graciously offers not to go so that David can spend with time with his kids. But then David isn’t having that.

Meanwhile, Carito is dreading going on a date with Leon. Perla encourages her to have. “Let him buy you something nice. The whole point is that Miguel sees you having fun”. So as soon as Miguel walks into the room, Carito gets her head in the game. And off they go!

Vino el Amor 11/18/16 Chapter 16: They kissed and then it was Gone With the Wind

(Some scenes have been combined.)

David and Luciana have begun their mating dance. They have been talking about their shared love of the land and their mutual admiration for Marcos. He always talked about David and that made Luci really want to see him again. In fact, she kept the receipt for the gift they gave him on his birthday, the day they were deported, but obviously it didn’t mean much to him. She saw him put aside inside a box. David replies that the gesture did not mean it didn’t mean anything to him.

He places his hands on her arms and gets close saying that she changed him, changed his whole way of being, of thinking, of feeling. Being so young, Luci says, is he serious, all while keeping her eyes on him. He replies that he doesn’t understand what exactly is happening, but yes, it’s true. She asks for two hours of his time, so she can show him something. They plan to meet by the pergola later on.

Buenas dias, amigos! This morning we welcome Sonia, our Thursday recapper for this series. Please give her a warm Caray Caray Bienvenido and enjoy her humourous take on the shenanigans in Sonoma Valley:

Well, friends, this was quite an episode.

Let’s dig in!

Fernanda throws a “You will never replace my mother” at Luciana for good measure. Okkkaaayyyyyyy Fer, simmer down. Also, you are being manipulated by your evil grandmother!! Go focus on something that isn’t your father’s supposed love life.

Vino El Amor # 11, November 9, 2016: Vino El Awkward Workplace Situations

Quick Plot Points - Full Recap Follows After the Jump:

David stood up for Marta and Luciana to Liliana. David makes the workplace decisions! Liliana wasn't happy about this.
David isn't ready to sell the vineyard to evil olive oil guy and Juan. Juan may have been making workplace decisions for awhile, but now David is back making the workplace decisions. They aren't happy about this.
Liliana has made a workplace decision of her own - she's just going to make life hell for Marta and Luciana, starting with dropping a dish and making Marta clean it up. Marta can deal with that, but warns Liliana to watch it when it comes to Luciana.
Miguel and Luciana are totally cute as he gives her the vineyard tour. He's happy about this.
Miguel's totally cute tour is broken up by David who wants to give Luciana a vineyard tour. It's awkward. Miguel is jealous.
Fernanda overhears Miguel and Carlos/Tano discussing Miguel's jealousy and Luciana's hotness and makes it more awkward. Fer is not happy that her crush Tano thinks Luciana is hot.
Luciana has an idea concerning organic grapes but she needs open sunlight through a window to discuss it with David. He does not like this. They fall on top of each other fighting over the drapes. It's awkward.
Fernanda walks in on this "workplace meeting" and doesn't like it. Even more awkward. She demands that David get rid of Luciana. He won't. Too bad. David makes the workplace decisions!
Miguel walks in on a Mean Girls division meeting and calls them out. Perla makes it more awkward by telling Miguel that Carito crushes on him.
Luciana wants to tend to a dying rosebush. David doesn't like that and says no. DAVID MAKES THE WORKPLACE DECISIONS.
Gutierrez visits Liliana and flirts with Marta. Awkward.
Susan and Cesar have a (not all that awkward, just normal awkward) first date but then he brings her back to the vineyard office. That was kind of awkward.
Carlos/Tano is apparently crushing on Susan and tells her this but also tells her he thought she only liked professional men. She gets mad he judged her as a snooty type. Awkward.
Fueled by the awkward situations above, Fernanda officially joins the I Hate Luciana Sooooo Much club after hanging with Liliana and skype sessions with Gracie. She visits the worker house to tell Luciana this! Awkward!

Camilo has organized a private dinner for his wife, with a private view of a private body of water and a private sax player performing a romantic rendition of the couple’s private theme song.

In Madrid, Adrián is working late to finalize a presentation due tomorrow. Triana comes back from the Tablao looking rather glum (apachurrada). The Tablao where she works might have to close because it’s facing stiff competition from a newly-opened Tablao. Adrián offers her his genius marketing advice to help turn things around.

Bullet Points (some combined):

Luciana told Miguel that nothing improper happened at the river. “I'd never have anything to do with him. First, he's the boss. Second, he's crazy.” Miguel asked whether she knew what had happened to Lisa and she did, saying she would never have provoked this on purpose. Miguel reminded her of Lillian's reaction; she didn't care what that vitch thought. “But she will take it out on your mother.”

A que no me dejas Episode 40 (11.4.16) The Tarot cards never lie. Funny. Everybody else does.

Happy day of the dead! (belated)

We start this episode with Nuria's wedding. She finally chose a dress with a slit in the back to get more room and expand since her belly was getting bigger and bigger every day. So much it grew, that by the time they signed the marriage contract her whole back was exposed.

Raquel, very loud so Gonzalo can hear, tells Alfonso that she has never seen Inés this happy now that she is getting divorced. Gonzalo's blood is probably boiling and as soon as Gastón leaves Inés alone to use the bathroom, he follows him to threat him, telling him that as long as he keeps close to his wife, he will never sign the divorce papers.

-I know your intentions, get away from Inés or else!

-She is not your wife anymore- replies MacDreamy.

-I am your worst enemy. I can end your career.

-I am not afraid of you.

-I am not repeating myself, sí me entiendes, verdad? Get away from my wife!

-She is no longer yours, face it!

Outside in the ballroom, Little Mau gets all the attention and Nuria gets jealous. Why am I not surprised? She takes Leonel's hand and goes to dance, while Paulina takes the little boy and start another dance group with Camilo somewhere else.

A Que No Me Dejas #39: Wedding (and Divorce) Blues...

Adrian is stunned to hear the news about Paulina’s wedding. At that moment, Paulina walks in and listens quietly. Adrian wants to know how long ago and Ines explains that it was a couple of days ago but she begs him to not look for her again, she’s trying to move on with her life. Ines wishes him good luck and hangs up. Adrian is devastated.

Ines turns around and sees that Paulina was listening to everything. Paulina asks her about what he wanted and Ines explains that she didn’t let him talk. Paulina tells her that it was probably for the best, she doesn’t want to talk to him anymore. Ines tells her that she says one thing but her eyes betray her. Paulina agrees and Ines reiterates that if she already got married with Camilo so she shouldn’t speak to him again.

In Madrid, Adrian is crying on the stairs. He took the wedding news to mean that regardless of what Julieta or Odette did, Paulina still married Camilo so she must love him. Therefore, everything she told him at their failed wedding must be true. He promises to forget her.

Alfonso informs Gonzalo that they are going to trial for the divorce since he doesn’t agree to it. Alfonso tells him to agree to Ines’ demands and he will win a lot more, like Ines’ trust and respect, both of which he lost completely. Gonzalo quietly thinks about this.

A Que No Me Dejas #38: Julieta Can't Keep Her Hands to Herself

Alan and Rene are ecstatic about the wedding news. They hug and kiss Gonzalo, happy that they will finally be a family.

Karen is telling Paulina about how wonderful Flavio is. He’s always checking up on her and has helped her with her suppliers. Paulina finds her sudden dependence on him strange since she’s always been very independent but Karen argues that it feels great to feel like you have someone with you every step of the way. Paulina is happy for her and Karen tells her she’s happy she’s also given Camilo an opportunity.

Alan asks Gonzalo if there are all going to live in the same house and Gonzalo tells them that that’s the idea but things are going to change. Firstly, they have to leave Puerto Esperanza. Gonzalo wants to construct a new hotel in Chetumal so he wants them there every step of the way.

Gisela and Dario give Jaime the news that they’re moving in together but he has to fake his smile and happiness. He tells Gisela that he didn’t know this side of her but he’s been surprised. Gisela tells him that she doesn’t believe in marriage but things could change; she’s happy just to be with Dario for now.

Gonzalo explains that in Puerto Esperanza they will always be judged for being his second family and Alan tells him he’s more than happy to move. He would love to see a hotel from the ground up. Rene is sad though because he won’t see his friends anymore, including Paulina and Mauricio. Gonzalo offers a deal: they can visit when he comes over to Puerto Esperanza and the kids agree.

A que no me dejas Episode 35 (10.28.16) Lies and the lying liars who lie until the truth arrives... all of them fall together.

Is all Elián González again when the DIF's (Family whole development or Desarrollo integral de la familia in spanish) social worker comes to take little Mau with her considering the Murats unfit to raise him.

Little Mau cries

Inés cries

Paulina cries

Chelo cries

Bertho bites his lips but is crying inside

Mica is also crying in the kitchen, but since she is chopping onions, I am not sure why

Gastón also cries silent tears while pleading to at least accompany the boy until he reaches the DIF offices because of his disability and his need for comfort (and translation).

All is denied. Looks like the social worker is deafer than little Mau and doesn't understand any reasoning. For her, is all black or white. No shades of gray. She assures them she can not leave the boy with this family, and once he is taken, they will never see him again because another family will adopt him. Once little Mau enters the DIF headquarters, none of the Murats will be taken into consideration for adopting him.

A Que No Me Dejas - Thursday 10/27/16 #34 Keep your friends close but your enemies even closer!

Al punches Gonzo several times while in the office Leo finds out that certain files for the south hotels are being given to Camilo to handle which displeases Leo. He expresses his displeasure to the secretary who says it's not my idea, so take it to the boss. Right then an employee comes into to tell Leo that Al is kicking the Gonz's ass right outside.

Back outside, Camilo having watched his papa deliver twenty or so blows by now, pulls him off Gonz. Al tells Camilo to let him go, he's not done and wants to finish ripping off the face of the damn traitor! Gonz asks how Al could have done that? Have you lost your mind? Al wants to know how Gonz could have betrayed him after Al has called him his friend and compadre! He thought they were friends! Gonz has no idea what Al is accusing him of. Oh no? I’m talking about you telling Ines that Monica was my lover and not yours. You did that without thinking that Ines could have told my wife and blown up my marriage. You blamed me you coward, but it came to light and now I’m never going to forgive you for this, never! Gonz says they are two civilized men and they can discuss this in private where he doesn't have to be humiliated by the ass kicking in front of his employees. Al isn't having it, they've got nothing to discuss and especially not when his son was made to think it was him (Al) who was having the affair with Monica. Al says he wasn't the one who betrayed the friendship or broke the confidence, he was faithful but in exchange all he got was a kick in the teeth so you could save your image. Gonz says it's not like that and if Al would listen he would understand. Al says the advantage of knowing Gonz so well is that he knows for certain he can't trust a word that comes out of his mouth and so now they're done. Gonz can deal with his miserable conscience! Gonz begs Al as he leaves but it's no use. Gonz sends a few employees after Al, while he tells the rest of the onlookers not to repeat a word of what they just witnessed and the first person he finds out is gossiping, will be FIRED! Now get back to work, nothing to see here folks! (except my beaten ass) Leo suck up that he is asks if Gonz needs a nurse? Or do you want to see about us taking reprisals against Al? No! That man is like my brother he says and storms off. Wow what a fight the bosses had! Leo says yeah, and it's going to work to my advantage. How? Leo says because now with the boss on the outs with his bestie, who better than me to now be his right hand man.

A Que No Me Dejas #33 - Gonzalo is a Terrible Friend and Flavio Is A Date-Rapist

Adrian promises Julieta that even though they won’t be in the same place, he will always be there for her, no matter what. Julieta is thankful for his love and support. Adrian also promises to talk to the doctor about letting her out of the hospital now that she’s dealt with the trauma of seeing of father’s suicide and keeping it bottled in.

Beto asks Paty if there is a job opening in the hotel as a valet or anything but she says there isn’t at this time.

Elisa closes the sale of the Chetumal house. She gets a check with the advance and the realtor lets her know in a few weeks they will transfer over the title of the house. Elisa thanks her and wishes the new buyers all the happiness in their new home.

Adrian tells the doctor that she seems more calm since she’s been there and the doctor agrees, however, she tells him that she would like a couple of days to continue the treatment from the hospital then they will slowly reincorporate her into society and she will continue her treatments in Playa Linda with supervised medications.

Vino el Amor 10/26/16 Chapter 2: More Snakes in the Grass

Bullet points (some combined)

Lisa tried to comfort Marta. She knew that Lillian has bothered her.
Juan arrived at La Migra to tell Gutierrez that Marcos' papers are pending. They go into an office to discuss this. Gutierrez didn't give a damn, saying that this is trumped by Marcos hitting him. Juan started backing off and got a call from David. When David got there Juan said to leave it all to him. However, he caved on the issue and Gutierrez laughed. Later at home David explained that Marcos was defending his daughter. He then told Juan he needs a lawyer who specializes in these cases. Lillian must have been silently gloating, as she was in the room.

A Que No Me Dejas (AQNMD) #32. Tuesday October 25, 2016. Discussion Page + Episode Highlights

Hiya Patio Pals! It doesn’t look like we’ll be getting a recap from Princess Juju today, so here’s a space for those of you who wish to discuss Tuesday’s episode. I haven’t watched it yet and won’t be able to do so right now because it’s 1 am my time. Apologies to all. If any of you is able to volunteer some episode highlights that’d be greatly appreciated. Cheers, everyone. Good night.

Our friend Alfredo, a.k.a Superalfie, has kindly provided the following highlights:

-- Gonzalo talked to Eulate Morales, the crooked bank guy, about giving the documents to Julieta and threatened him with jail time because he suggested he deposited the money offshore in the original “fraud”.

-- Leonel convinced Nuria not to be too hard on The Gonz about his double life. It is best to take her father’s side because it would benefit her and Leonel in their rise to power within the hotel consortium.

Vino el Amor -- Gran Estreno 10/25/2016 Chapter 1: Divide and Destroy

Chapter 1: Divide and Destroy

On a beautiful sunny afternoon in the vast wine country that is southern California two kids raced through the paths of the vineyard, promising that the later one at the finish line buys the candy. At another spot in the vineyard the girl's father stacked boxes of red grapes while her mother and brother came out to talk to him about going somewhere the next afternoon.

Marcos was a tall man in his forties with a direct and honest face. His fair complexion and dark hair insured his attractiveness and complemented his ease with people. His wife Marta was fairer still, with dark golden hair. They were a happy couple and good parents to Luciana and León. The boy was about eight years old, playful and intelligent.

A Que No Me Dejas (AQNMD) #31. Monday October 24, 2016. Papá Don’t P...Reach For The Gun!

(Cara de) Well, this explains the cray-cray!
At a glance

-- Adrián’s sainted Pops was never a saint! Bazinga!

-- Mr. Peanut Butter & Slime learns that he has been officially designated as Nuria’s baby daddy! Bazinga!

A closer look

At the beach of silent love and thwarted reconciliation, Paulina had a full two minutes to tell Adrián that she is carrying his unibrow baby but she squandered the precious time talking about the kiss she shared with Camilo and “omitted” to mention. Adrián doesn’t want to hear her anymore: You are dead to me! Shouting out: “I’m pregnant!” would’ve shut Adrián right up but it’s more aesthetically-pleasing to squeeze out a few pretty tears by the seashore while an adorable blond cherub consoles you.
