Vino el Amor #102; Tuesday, March 28, 2017: Vino la trampa (trap)
After breakfast in the Robles house, Marta comes in and
asks Bobby if he is ready for school. Lilian says Marta is late. Bobby says he
had a nightmare but Tiá woke him and took care of him. He says he is liking his
Tía a lot more now. “So where is Fernanda?” asks Marta. “Oh she just got
through with her therapy with Anderson and will spend some time studying
because the exams are tomorrow.” Marta asks, “And who is going to take her to
school?” “I’m taking her to school today”, says Lil. Bobby kisses his Tía and
Grandma goodbye and Marta and Bobby leave. Lil then says,“We are going to have
to put Marta in her place because she is only an employee here. It’s not right
that the children love her so much.” Grace responds, “It’s just a matter of
time and I’ll get Bobby’s love. I have a plan but I’m going to need your help.”
Lil says, “Of course you do.”

La Piloto #15, 3-27-2017: The Rumble And The Aftermath
• Dave and the posse aka Simpson (now the new Dave replacement?) and move in on foot waving their pathetic pistols as the John and Oscar grouse over John’s taking YO!Landa instead of him. Of course, while Daverted and the good guys go on foot, the bad guys, packing semi-automatic(?) assault rifles/sub-machine guns and the like, get away in the air as Viewerville no longer wonders why we’re losing the war against drugs. (Like just what’s wrong with this scenario, DUH?) Yolanda has Dave in her sights but refuses to pull the trigger. Well, John and YO!li try to escape in his pet plane, but it looks like Red Baron 1 won’t start. John and she race to the next couple of planes. I cannot catch the discussion, but one of them I figure says she CAN with another plane/on her own while the other one figures she CAN’T.
• She gets into another plane—but has left her black backpack of who remembers what goodies-- and trawls off after John in one of his other planes while the shootout at the Narc-O.K. corral continues on the ground.
• Daverto sees the last plane racing down the runway and he has Simpson and some others jump into a couple of SUV’s to face Yoli down. Simpson is screaming about crashing into the darned thing. Dato is single-minded, if nothing else, and plays a high stakes death-defying double-dawg-dare-ya with Yoli. YO! lifts off at the very last second before crashing head on into the SUV’s.
• Yoli is all smiles at what she’s pulled off. Dave has somebody get hold of the flight tower near by or ??? He wants to know when and where the 2 planes and a copter land so the Feds can send in the troops.
• John gripes that the radios in his plane don’t work. He has to use his cell instead. He calls Oscar who’s got Arly watching over Rosalba. She’s dying/half dead and O doesn’t have the slightest idea what to do. Well, inform Yoli and see if she’s gotten off ok. O warns his brother that he’s not ready to risk life and limb for someone who he doesn’t know or care a fig about. John urges him to play nice till he can figure out what to do with the woman.
• Yoli tries with her radio but it’s worthless as well. She tries using her maps.

Vino el Amor, Lunes 3/27/17 Chapter 101: Marking Territory
Fernanda said she had no problem
with her father falling in love with someone like her Aunt Gracie.
David was not pleased with this.
“Fernanda, love doesn't work
like that,” he said.
“I thought that would please
you.”
“Don't misinterpret me,” he
said. “but I can't be with whomever you want.”
“Whenever I try to get close to
you to talk you about this and you end up not being happy.”
“Understand this, Fernanda, I
want to be with the woman I love, not with whom you decide.”
“So therefore, what does my
opinion matter if you're just going to do what you want?” [Por
Dios, who is the parent here?]

La Piloto: #14, 3-24-2017: From Rescue To Rumble
There's a meet with The Senator's lawyer set up to invite Los Lucio to join him and expand their narcotrafficking venture into the U.S. The only request is to keep themselves on the down low. (Good luck with that.) It's their invite to grander things with the Las Sombras Narco organization. They are in and get an advance to help set up their bigger and better little air fleet and airfield in Villa Antigua.
At the same time, YO!landa has the blueprints of the hospital her aunt's at. She strategizes a way to get her out of the hospital under the Feds' noses.
Zeki, somehow having miraculously survived the snake bite during his run through the jungle, is back in Three Fuegos sneaking around from hot spot to hot spot looking for cash, car, cell and clothes. He suffers through memories of his massacred family.

La Piloto #12 3.22.17: In Which Yolanda Continues to Learn Harsh Life Lessons...
• The DEA helicopter lands in Mexico and the news spreads that the police have found 5 survivors of the plane crash after Zeki hijacked the plane. They hypothesize that he did this to escape the DEA because they found out that CAA was actually owned by John Lucio. In the helipad, Ortega helps Dave out of the helicopter as the paramedics come and ask if he’s okay. Ortega runs after Zulima and tells her that she’s not going anywhere because they know she also has ties to the Lucios. Zulima tells them that she’s hurt and wants to go home but hauls her off to jail.
• In the Lucio airstrip, Oscar finds out that that the survivors, including Zulima, have landed in Mexico. He warns her to not say anything or she’s dead and shoots the TV in anger.
• Amanda is handcuffed and taken to the jail cell where Lizbeth and Olivia are pacing. They wonder if Amanda talked when Amanda is brought in. They ask her who the man she was talking to was and she explains that it was a prosecutor and he tried to persuade her to say all she knew about the Lucios and Zeki in exchange for a lower sentence. They asks her if she took the deal but Amanda points out that she’s still in jail with them so obviously she didn’t. Just then, they bring in Zulima and all the girls go in for a hug. They ask her if she’s okay and Zulima confirms she is despite the fact that she almost died. They then ask about Yolanda and Zulima confirms that she heard she was okay and that John rescued her in the forest. A policeman comes in and tells the girls that Olivia has a visitor.

We pick up where we left off yesterday with David
questioning what she was doing with Miguel. Luciana exclaims, “What are you
distrusting me now?” David responds, “I just can’t believe you have done that!”
Luciana says, “To what are you referring?” David goes on to talk about the
problems and then accuses Luciana of dropping everything to go see Miguel. Luciana
says, “I can’t believe that you’re saying this and I can’t believe your
complaints either because I’m suffering without you. What I’m trying to do is
show you I’m on your side and on your family’s side.” She angrily walks out of

The one where everyone gets poisoned A Que no me Dejas 03/21/17
Hi patio peeps!
I got hit with a surprise audit today so I'm running late on everything, below are some highlights of yesterday's episode:
Almuneda and Alan figure out the food has been messed with, they run out to warn people but it's too late, several people have already ingested the food and have become sick, Alan collapses because he's allergic to the substance that was added to the food. Things do not look good for Alan and the doctor can not promise Gonzalo and Monica that he will pull through.

La Piloto #11 3.21.17: In Which Yolanda Lands in Costa Rica and (Possibly) Loses Someone Else...
• At the airstrip, John goes into his office and tries to radio into the plane Zeki has hijacked. Oscar tells him that they need to go because the DEA is coming but John wants to find out if Yolanda is safe first. Oscar tells him that they are in this mess because of her but John doesn’t believe she had anything to do with it. Oscar asks him if he’s sure but John is silent and Oscar remind him that he has doubts and that’s the problem. John confesses that he has one doubt: why did Zeki hijack the plane after leaving the warehouse if he was with the DEA?
• On the plane, Zeki tells the co-pilot that they need to reach Panama ASAP but the co-pilot warns him that they don’t have enough fuel and to fly lower so the radar does not detect them. John’s voice finally comes through and Zeki answers. John warns him that if anything happens to his plane or Yolanda, he will regret it but Zeki tells him to forget about both and hangs up.
• Yolanda asks Zulima if she knows what is going on with Zeki but she shakes her head. Yolanda wonders where they will go as they barely have enough fuel to even make it to Costa Rica. Zulima then asks what happened with Dalberto and Yolanda confesses that he’s a rat that works with the DEA and even lied about his name. Zulima is shocked to hear the news.
• Outside the airport, Olivia, Amanda and Lizbeth are arrested. The DEA find the bag with the cash in their possession.

Parte 1 ~
• Yolanda makes her escape from the restaurant in back of the druggies’ car, the money bag in tow. “--Keep your head down!!” Dave/Alberto is chasing them but loses them along the way.
• Yoli calls John to let him know the score and the problem: Dave done us in. He’s working for the DEA! He’s a federale!” He’s another jerkwad, like all the other men in my life. My choice of men sucks—and I wanted to help him through! John tells her to get back to the airport and get on the flight back to Mexico. Trust in a guy named Pincheros (Good enough). Don’t get caught by the Feds in the U.S., cuz he cannot help her there.
• The driver says he’s got some merchandise to deliver and he’ll take her back to the airport. (I think.)
• Zeki meanwhile, gets lose from the ropes, finds a gun and knocks Oscar over the head when his back is turned. Zulima manages to make it to her car and is ready to start the car when Zeki puts a gun in her face. He gets in and forces her to drive.
• Becker’s Amerian Counterpart at the airport or the mission com room tells Dave, El Duro, to pack it in. The mission’s been a total failure. The Lucio’s are going underground and Yolanda with them. Duro says nope. He’s certain JL will move heaven and earth to get Yolanda back there today.
• Duro learns about the shootout at the Lucio’s Miami warehouse and that Monica’s there in the middle of it. Oscar and Mena Arley escape on the back of a motor cycle.
• Druggie gets back to the airport and meets up with Bald Dude – Pineros. He hides her in a huge cinch bag.
• On the Centroamerica plane, the stewardesses are muy impactado to see Alberto show a DEA badge and demand to speak to the pilot of the plane, which he plans to search. Of course, the agents find nothing, not even in the baggage area. The gals’ flight documents are in order. Duro wants to know where Yoli is. He tells the other agents he’ll take it from there. He sits down and looks out the window while the luggage for the flight back is being loaded. He sees the huge cinch bag move and he orders to pilots to open up the baggage area. CoPiloto bangs him over the head and lets him drop in. JL will reward him handily for capturing the DEA agent. They take off immediately and without permission to escape the Feds and get back to Mexico.

Vino el Amor #96, Friday 3/17/17: Water, Water, Everywhere Else, But Not a Drop for Lil
Yesterday – (See Julie’s rippin’ good tale at the end of
yesterday’s recap)
The review starts with Dr. Evil Anderson trying to convince David he’s at fault for Fer’s suicide attempt. It includes Juan and Mark plotting in English; Luci and Leon discussing Mamá’s betrayal, and Marta and Lilian’s confrontation in the kitchen.
Today – (All you’ve got is me)
Dr. Evil and Fer – Fer is telling the doc that she feels worse now that she realized her affection for her nana was misplaced because of what she did with Fer’s own granddaddy. Dr. Evil jumps up, very concerned that she might try to off herself again. Fer insists that she’s almost positively sure she didn’t want to commit suicide, she only wanted to feel better. Dr. Evil (with $$$$ dancing in his head) assures her that her motives are hidden deep inside her and that’s what he’s there for. Fer says, juarever. She is going to concentrate on defending her feelings for her aunt, her grandmother and for, sigh, Tano, un tipazo.
Marta and Lil – The two continue their argument in the kitchen. Marta says she’s no longer afraid of Lil’s threats. Since she lost the love of Fer and her children, there’s nothing to hold her back, so beware, Lil. Marta sneers that the Patron still prefers her to Lil to care for the children. Lil answers back that she’ll figure out a way to get close to the grandchildren and if Marta had any dignity, she would leave. Lil gloats that she didn’t get Fernando nor Gut. Marta has had enough and hands Lil a drippy ladle and tells her here, if she wants to be a good grandmother, finish the meal. Marta stalks out. Yikes, Lil holds the ladle away from her as if it were a poisonous snake and yells for Sonia, who has the bad luck to be within earshot of the battlefield.

The review starts with Dr. Evil Anderson trying to convince David he’s at fault for Fer’s suicide attempt. It includes Juan and Mark plotting in English; Luci and Leon discussing Mamá’s betrayal, and Marta and Lilian’s confrontation in the kitchen.
Today – (All you’ve got is me)
Dr. Evil and Fer – Fer is telling the doc that she feels worse now that she realized her affection for her nana was misplaced because of what she did with Fer’s own granddaddy. Dr. Evil jumps up, very concerned that she might try to off herself again. Fer insists that she’s almost positively sure she didn’t want to commit suicide, she only wanted to feel better. Dr. Evil (with $$$$ dancing in his head) assures her that her motives are hidden deep inside her and that’s what he’s there for. Fer says, juarever. She is going to concentrate on defending her feelings for her aunt, her grandmother and for, sigh, Tano, un tipazo.
Marta and Lil – The two continue their argument in the kitchen. Marta says she’s no longer afraid of Lil’s threats. Since she lost the love of Fer and her children, there’s nothing to hold her back, so beware, Lil. Marta sneers that the Patron still prefers her to Lil to care for the children. Lil answers back that she’ll figure out a way to get close to the grandchildren and if Marta had any dignity, she would leave. Lil gloats that she didn’t get Fernando nor Gut. Marta has had enough and hands Lil a drippy ladle and tells her here, if she wants to be a good grandmother, finish the meal. Marta stalks out. Yikes, Lil holds the ladle away from her as if it were a poisonous snake and yells for Sonia, who has the bad luck to be within earshot of the battlefield.

La Piloto #8 3.16.17: In Which Yolanda Gives Into Her Desires...
• Yolanda, dressed as a flight attendant, lies back in bed and thinks about all that happened with Ernesto. She signs and then leaves. Outside, she receives a call from John but ignores it.
• In the airline, Yolanda calls Estela looking for Ernesto but she has no idea where he is. She calls her daughter but Yolanda tells her to never call her that again because she doesn’t have a daughter since she turned her back on her. Zulima comes and quietly stands behind Yolanda as she tells Estela that she will find Ernesto and make him pay for what he did. This time it won’t be a cut across his face, this time she’s going to kill him. Yolanda hangs up and Zulima touches her shoulder. Yolanda jumps and asks her how long she has been standing there. Zulima confirms that she came for coffee and heard everything. Yolanda confirms that Ernesto left her with nothing but she will deal with it. Zulima offers her support as Yolanda receives a call and goes off to answer it. Zulima keeps her eye on Yolanda as she walks off and pulls out Ernesto’s card with his number on it.
• At the same time, Yolanda answers John’s call and tells him she doesn’t feel like talking right now. He backs off but offers to take her to dinner. She accepts but tells him it can’t be tonight because she has something to do. He reminds her that Dalberto is alive because of him and Yolanda chides him for always seemingly doing her favors but still asking her to pay for them. John reminds her that nothing is free in this world and hangs up.

Vino el Amor, #95, Thursday Mar 16, 2017: A Dry Spell Begins
Hi all! Cynthia is dealing with a cupcake emergency tonight. She will return as your recapper next week.
Luci tells Dave she thinks it's better for everyone if they break up. Dave can't believe life is so unfair, it's the second time that what he loves most is taken away from him. Luci says no, it's just not their time. He tells her that she's shown him the best time he's had in ages, and she will stay with him in his heart. They hug. She doesn't want to hurt anyone else with their love. He says they have to consider themselves very lucky to have lived such a special love. He says "I love you" (te amo), and she replies "I will always love you" (yo siempre te voy a amar).
They share one last whiskery kiss. Luciana walks away crying.
Lilian is having coffee with Brian. She's gloating about Marta's admission of the affair. Bri says he's sorry and he doesn't know what to say, but he looks as though he also doesn't give a crap. Lil continues that Marta said she did it to hurt Lil AND because she was in love with Lil's husband, in that order. Bri says he's sure Marta is suffering. Lil says Marta deserves it; she fooled Brian too. Lil is excited that this is giving her a second chance to be with David and with her granddaughter. (I guess Bobby can go fly a kite.) And with Brian, too. Brian dutifully smiles and puts his hand on hers. Lil assures him that she's not a bad person, and had good reason to treat Marta the way she did.
Brian kisses her hand and says, "enjoy your coffee." Steamy!

Vino el Amor #94; Wednesday, March 15, 2017: Vino la Verdad
As we left off yesterday, the truth comes out about Marta’s
affair with Fernando. Luciana, standing in the living room is shocked at what
she hears and says, “Mamá?” Fernanda also looks up and says, “Nana, what is
happening?” Lil angrily looks at Marta and says, “Now they all know who you
really are! And now they understand why I am the way I am with you!” Marta just
looks down and is now looking ashamed and doesn’t know what to say. Fernanda is just shocked. Lil comes running
down the stairs saying, “She took my husband away from me just to hurt me!”
Luciana looks up at Lil and says, “Señora, please!” Lil just looks at Luciana
and tells her, “As much as it hurts to say the truth, your mother destroyed my
marriage. She went with my husband KNOWING he was married to me and she didn’t
care.” Marta comes out to Lu saying, “No, no, no, it wasn’t like that at all. I
swear they weren’t.” But Lil goes on, “I didn’t say anything. I suffered alone
with this. And why?” (Lil looks at Fernanda) “Because of you dear. I didn’t
want to destroy your illusions.” Marta tries to get out of it by saying she
only said those words to annoy Lilian and goes on to say, “I’m simply not
capable of doing those things.”

A Que no Me Dejas, the filler episode #129, 03/14/17
This was a totally boring episode.
Jaime and Gisela: Gisela meets Jaime for lunch and gets right to the point: she wants a divorce. They don't want the same things any more and heck, they don't even sleep together. Gisela admits they have a wonderful family but that's not enough, Jaime asks her to reconsider but she says she wont. They agree to take things slowly so that Jaime can talk things out with Fabricio. Le sigh, this could all have been avoided had Jaime told his wife that he has CANCER.

La Piloto #6 3.14.17: In Which Yolanda Goes on a Date...
• At the ranch, Zeki is walking to his car, cursing Zulima, when Oscar comes and reminds him that he told him working with women would be hard. Zeki agrees, gets in his car and drives away. Oscar laughs.
• The next day, Yolanda fills in Amanda and Lizbeth on what happened at the clinic. Lizbeth reminds her that she told Yolanda the Lucios were dangerous but Yolanda tells her that she’s not going to see them anymore. Amanda doesn’t think it will be so easy since 1) John is her boss and 2) John likes her. Amanda explains that it doesn’t take a genius to see she likes him too. Yolanda disagrees and tells them that everything will be done through Zeki from now on until she can make enough money to move elsewhere with her aunt, where no one could find them. Lizbeth thinks it’s a good idea but wonders how hard it will be to free. Yolanda then asks her how it went with the NY pickup and Lizbeth confesses she was nervous but she made it.
• Just then, Ortega comes into the airline with an arrest warrant and an army of agents. She goes to Zeki’s office and asks that he let them do their job and search everything on the premises.
• At the same time, DEA agents also raid warehouses affiliated the Central American market that use double accounting books.
• Zeki gives a press conference and explains that CAA has nothing to do with drug trafficking and asks that the DEA let CAA work until anything concrete shows up.

Vino el Amor, Lunes 3/13/17 Chapter 92: Extreme Distress
Some
scenes combined for clarity:
David got on Tano's case for
getting involved with Fernanda. He started blaming him for Fernanda's
depression. Tano tried explaining why it wasn't like that. Their
relationship started on her birthday and he was trying to balance it
so that he could return to college and so she could pick up her
grades. She came to him all upset because of her differences with
him (David) and wanting them to run away together. He had refused
and she became angry with him. He would not comply with her request
that they run away together out of respect for him and for his own
father. David asked whether he knew why Fernanda was in the hospital
and he said “Yes, because she took some pills.”
“Yes. Because she wanted to
take her own life.”
Tano looked shocked. Both should
have been.

La Piloto #4 3-10-2017: Lift Off!
• As we drop into our comfy couches this evening, Monica leads a team to examine the taxi that was used as a decoy and abandoned. She is curses-foiled-again-impactada.
•
• John and Yolanda finish the flight in his Red Baron (Cesna?) special. She was loving it. He offers to teach her to fly – all she’s got to do is say the word. She asks what’s he want in exchange? Growing up, she realized early on, men always want something in exchange with a woman. He had to work hard and scrabble for all he has. A smile from her is enough. Actually, he’s trying to do right by her for saving his life and risking her own at the same time. She answers she would have done that for anyone. (I kind of doubt it.) So, consider them even now. Just to be totally honest, though, it bugs her; she doesn’t appreciate being in gunfights or having the police hounding her all the time. And, so, she’s heading home.
•
• Dave is upset that the Lucios are always a step ahead of him and Monica. They cannot keep this up or it’s watching over the drug inventory in the medicine closet of the DEA office in Barrow, Alaska for him. Moni says they captured a phone call between Zeki and Zulima last night telling her there’s been a hit ordered on Lisbet. (Ms. Blonde Ambition). Dave remembers that Yoli is supposed to be with her this evening and so her life’s in danger also. He tries calling but there’s no answer. They can’t get there in time. They form plan. Outside the house, Oscar’s two goons are watching the girls enter. They call him for directions considering there’s a second girl with Blonde Bette. Oscar has them describe her and thinks about it. He tells them to kill her also. (Viewerville gasps a communal breath of angst.)

Vino el Amor, #91, Friday Mar 10, 2017: Love Hurts
Paco tells Miguel and Susan that he doesn't want to talk to Gutierrez. Susan and Mig thank him for his help and decide to wait for the truck to arrive.
Luci thinks she and Dave will talk to Fernanda when she gets better and everything will be fine, but Marta makes it clear that she thinks Fernanda is in the hospital because of Luci.
People give Susan and Mig funny looks as they pass them on the street. Susan is getting nervous. Mig lets Susan bail and decides to give Carito another chance.
Luci tells Marta that leaving David is no way to solve their problems. That will just cause more pain. "It seems that I don't matter to you," Luci says. "This is all about Fernanda. I need you to be more understanding with me. All I want of you as my mother is to hug me and console me instead of losing the love of my life."
Mark complains to Juan: "You're not my dad, I don't have to come when you call." He says that Carito deserves to die. Juan urges him not to do anything stupid. Mark replies, "If you're doing this because of Perla, just give me my money and then we can end this."

La Piloto #3 3-9-2017: With More Lives Than A Herd Of Cats
[My apologies, but I am living the recapper’s nightmare with only a poor quality video, bad audio, machine gun Spanish, and no CC’s. On Demand and Hulu+ are a bit behind. But who’s complaining? –ed.]
(And this is just in the first ten minutes.....)
Viewerville is at the edge of their seats as Yolanda, John, and Zulima take an unexpected air born detour to the creek bed hundreds of feet below in the red bug. Dave/Arturo and Monica look on in horror. Dave thinks on his feet and immediately grabs a rope; he then heads down the branch-filled cliff side. Suddenly there’s an explosion. More horror as we learn Dave’s knocked cold—but only momentarily. He heads back down and another policeman comes down with a fire extinguisher. They see all have escaped into the deep-forested hillsides.

Vino el Amor #89; Wednesday March 8, 2017: The search for Ferzilla and vino el intento de suicidio
We begin with Luciana and David again pledging their love
for one another. Luciana tells him that their dreams of having a lovely family
together are about to pass by the wayside. But David tells her to never give
up, to have faith, and not to throw in the towel. Luciana says, “But to think
how I could lose you or that this could ruin your family, it just terrifies me.”
David tells her he is not going to let this happen. He goes on and says, “These
are the tests of life, the day to day family problems, the difficulties with
children.” Luciana says, “Yes, you are right. I am ready to face all of that
with you.”

La Piloto #2 3.8.17: In Which Yolanda Is In Three Shootouts
• The police knock on the bathroom door as Yolanda silently freaks out. Think quickly, she hides the suitcase under one of the ceiling tiles as a female military officer opens the locked door and asks her to step into the hallway so the officers can search the bathroom with the dog.
• In the hallway, the officer body searches her and asks her where she comes from, when she got to Colombia and how many bags is she carrying. Yolanda came from Mexico today and she only has her purse and one suitcase with clothes. The officer tells her that she can’t lock a public bathroom and search her bags. They find exactly what she told them and assume the dogs made a mistake. They apologize for their mistake and let her go.
• Yolanda goes back into the bathroom and retrieves the money from the ceiling tile. She opens up the bag, sees that the money is gone and calls Zulima to ask her why she never told her there was money in the bag. Zulima lies says she didn’t know about the money or whom it was for. Yolanda admits that she was robbed and Zulima freaks out, confessing that they are going to kill them both if she doesn’t show up with the money. Yolanda offers to go to the hotel and explain what happened but Zulima tells her that she has no idea who she’s dealing with and hangs up.

Nuria will never change: A que no me Dejas # 124 03/07/2017
This will be short because I'm on my own a work for three weeks, nothing says fun like doing the work of three people!
- Fabricio and Alan both spot Almuneda with Jaime, they both assume the worse. Alan confronts Almuneda for "seeing a married man" and Fabricio uses this as an excuse to go see Adriana.
- Jaime, we all know id suffering from cancer and the chemo has been giving him terrible side effects, his heart might be compromised, so if the cancer does not kill him the side effects might.
- Special service announcement: if you have cancer tell your spouse and children!
- Nuria wakes up at the hospital and learns that she's been disfigured and will never be able to talk again.
- Leonel confronts Rene, he wants to know if he is still on his side, and if so why did he put up the 2 million to save Valentina, and why is he hearing that he made up with Gonzalo? He also let's it slip that he knows about the casinos Rene is planning on starting.
Vino el Amor #88, Tuesday, March 7, 2017: Vino el Fer Whisperers, or Not
In this episode, Fer is upset. VERY UPSET. She's running here. She's running there. She's running back. Many try to reason with her. Few, if any, succeed. She's in full meltdown mode. Who will be the Fer Whisperer? Will anyone be the Fer Whisperer?! Please, someone, step in and soon.
Also, Gutierrez frets about his upcoming charity event, which I think is going to be screencap gold given the participants and the initial planning session. Carito and Perla are at odds, while Miguel is on the track for finding out what's going on with the illegal trafficking.

Vino el Amor, Lunes 3/6/17 Chapter 87: You Can't Handle the Truth
Some
scenes combined for clarity:
Luciana remained calm in the face
of the screaming banshee Graciela, who swore she would turn David's
children against her. She finally delivered a sound slap at the
insult to her moral fibre and stared her enemy right in the face.
Too cowardly to answer back in kind, Gracie delivered one more such
insult before turning tail and leaving. Luciana slapped the table in
frustration.

Vino el Amor #85 Thursday March 2, 2017: Vino el tiempo para avanzar (time to move forward)
We begin where we left off yesterday as David announces
to DisGrace that he is planning to buy her out of their partnership and
dissolve it. DisGrace is not happy about this and begins to protest. “What”,
says DisGrace, “Are you saying that I’m just like Juan? How could you? I
thought you said everything was fine with us. Oh, I see you are doing this
because of the olive orchard thing.” David says, “I’ve already told you that I
wanted to dissolve our partnership, it’s just the best thing to do.” DisGrace
continues to whine, “But WHYYYYYYYYY……????” Dave explains, “Look, I’m doing
this for my children because I don’t want them to have any problems later on
down the line.” DisGrace replies, “Well do you really think I’d leave them
unprotected?” (Yeah DisGrace, I DO think you’d take all their money and run
with it.) Dave says, “No I don’t but things have changed and it’s clear to me
that you cannot separate our professional and personal realms together. It’s
just best that I do things this way.”

Out in the vineyard, David tells Luci his kids are backing off letting him have a relationship with any kind
of evil stepmother. He doesn’t understand their change of opinion. Luci
persuades him to delay saying anything right now about their relationship,
rather than risk upsetting the whole grape cart they’ve filled with their juicy dreams.
She’ll keep working on her relationship with Fer. They exchange “Te Amos” and a
river of spit.

David
and Luci getting more face time but, sadly, there kisses look a little painful.
Anyway, I'm buyin' it because I wanted them together. (Lila) I really have to fault Lucia, her besos seem
emotionless and robotic. If they are really to be believable together, they
must emanate some genuine chemistry which is sadly lacking currently. (Diana)
Sonia is telling Leon in the kitchen that Lil
is not in a very good mood since Gut left her high and dry. Then the talk turns toward their latest romance novel.
Leon
lets her know he better not be a substitute for anybody (like El Patrón, Sr.
David), not like some character in their romance novel. She swears he's not.
The Leon that takes no crap is kinda sexy. (Niece) I'm thinking these two might have a real future
with each other after all! (Diana)
Bobby & Charlie are in town heading for the candy store counter, discussing candy
choices and evil stepmother choices when a pig-tailed beauty enters the store.
Charlie pushes Bobby towards her. Bobby is delighted she speaks soccer. He
finds out she also likes video games and she quickly seduces him into a date.
Now
looks like Bobby will have a little girlfriend too. Gawd. (Tofie) Did we really
need to introduce a girlfriend for Bobby? What is he..8 ? (Susanlynn) Bobby's new girlfriend maybe will go on about
how her new Mom is the coolest thing since sliced bread. (Kirby)

And her name is not Gracie, which makes Gracie quite unhappy. Fer is happy about her new boyfriend, but not so happy about Dad's new girlfriend. Miguel still seems like he's heading for a new novia himself though, even though he still keeps reaching out to the old one.

No party is a party without a little drama, tears, fights, the party crasher and that one guest who has to be a party pooper! I counted three in this episode.
Fer can't believe
this is happening, but Tano says this kiss is filled with all of the affection
he feels for her. She's a magical
girl..a princess and the more he gets to know her the more fond he becomes of
her. He thanks her for everything she's
done and for making him smile again.
Fer says if tonight was already perfect, he's made it unforgettable.
They share another sweet kiss before Tano thinks it's best they go back inside
before Fer's father realizes they're missing.
Fer says she'll treasure this moment forever.

her and tell her she doesn’t want Lu to suffer all her life. Of course Marta is
projecting her own bad experience on to her daughter believing it’s the same

without David. She just feels very badly about hurting Miguel and having to
hide this from everyone. Marta is talked out and says “Good night”. She is very

Hi everybody!! In the past, I've tried to put together
a little 'fact sheet' for you guys in regards to what's going on
telenovela-wise 'South of the Border', in the land where they come from!
As I realize that whatever it is the staggeringly disgraceful boobs at
Univision decide on by way of programming, will ultimately entail just what it
is that YOU guys get to watch up yonder, America-way. Some will make it,
some will not... and god knows which will be which (hell, with the Univision
execs being what they are, I doubt even HE knows!). But, that being said,
I wanted to come up with a post that hopefully you will find informative, enlightening,
useful, entertaining, or any combination therein! I apologize for its
stupefying length, but it's a labor of love to be sure (I just hope it isn't as
such reading it!) To avoid editorializing (I unfortunately do that enough
once I get going, for which I apologize... FWIW, I'm writing this paragraph
last, so I know what I'm talking about here...), I'm just going to get right in
on things, and on the projects that we've got on hand right now, or are already
actively in preparation in some way...

Some scenes have been combined and may not be
in order.
El Arroz de Hoy
Still in a clinch and breathing heavily, Luci tells David they need to get back to work. He has other work on his mind, but Luci prevails. The walk arm in arm while Luci discusses how to go organic. Although Susan has already given David a lesson, he says he wants to hear it from Luci and listens attentively. He hopes the organic wine will reflect the passion and love they have for each other. (Oy vey, how maudlin.)
Speaking of Obstacles Part 1
For David, his first obstacle comes in the form of a visit from Adolfo, who has come to talk about winning the prize (Miguel, that is). Adolfo probes a bit. He wants to know why Miguel left. David explains they had some problems of late, but nothing to do with his work. Just let it be said he no longer felt comfortable working at Bodega Los Angeles (BLA). Adolfo is ok with a young man wanting to get ahead in life and choosing new opportunities. Then he challenges David to a duel of the wines in the upcoming competition. It’s his bodega with Miguel and Erica against David’s. He’s sure his wine will win handily. David is just as sure it will be his wine that wins because he has Luciana….and all the rest of the workers, of course.

Los
Frijoles de Ayer
David and Luci stand together in the sunlight
on a path in the vineyard, not very hidden from view. They declare their love,
pledge their troth regardless of the obstacles ahead and kiss on it. Their
first obstacle as a couple is to try to hear each other over that annoying
singer who manages to drown out most of their declarations, making it hard for
the Restless Patio to hear as well. They decide kissing is more productive.El Arroz de Hoy

Vino el Amor #72; Thursday February 9, 2017: Will Love Conquer All?
Repeated scene: As Susan is in the lab, David walks in
and tells Susan that this batch of wine must be the best in their vineyard’s
history. David wants to win the competition against the Santa Barbara Vineyard
since Miguel works there now. Susan catches on to what’s going on so she asks
David, “is this really about the vineyard, or about Luciana?” David admits this
is about both as Susan knowingly shakes her head. Susan wisely advises him to
not let this be personal and to keep his head on straight. It should not be
about beating Miguel or Luciana and remember the things that are important.

Vino el Amor #71; Wednesday February 8, 2017: Against all odds, the romance resumes
(I am out of town and not able to deliver the quality as I usually do. But I will put up pictures later and make some edits. Most things I've just abbreviated.)
We
open with a montage of everyone getting along well. It ends with Miguel giving
the keys to David and last report. Marta and the other employees give their
loving goodbyes to him.
David
and Luciana are in the Cava talking wine stuff that seems to be mixed with love
talk. Lu doesn’t want things to go too fast just in case it doesn’t work out.
She relates what happened with Miguel. David says they will figure it all out
with love and patience. But then DisGracie calls….

Vino el Amor, Lunes 2/6/17 Chapter 69: Advice
Some
scenes combined for clarity:
Miguel cried as Luciana broke up
with him while going through the best-friend-vs-lover thing. She
didn't want him to hate her and he said he never could. He wondered
if he could ever look at her as just a friend. After another round
of verbiage on this, Luciana and Miguel kissed their childhood love
goodbye.

Vino el Amor, Viernes 2/3/17 Chapter 68: 10,000 Pieces of Silver
Just
the facts, peeps:
We
come back to David telling Miguel he loved Luciana and will fight for
her. Miguel told him he wouldn't make it easy for him, accusing him
of wanting to leave. David said he wasn't going to ask him to but if
he wanted to it was his decision. Miguel said he was going, then
walked out the door.
Lillian
walked in on Bobby playing his video game and tried to give him
cookies, but he wasn't interested; Marta had already given him some.
She tried a little harder but as with DisGracie the previous episode,
they had no interests in common. Lillian looked frustrated.

A Que No Me Dejas #101 Thursday 2/2/2017 --Tainted Blood
Nuria doing what she
always does, begins to lie to Tobias. Why would I want to pull out a gun at a wedding and shoot Alfonso, my
godfather? Tobias tells her that she
was trying to kill Valentina and Mauricio.
Nuria says why that's crazy! I
may not like those two annoying brats but not enough to kill them. They were children what could they have done
to me? Well Raquel said she saw
you. Well Raquel is also ill in the
head. She never remembers things
correctly. Tobias can't argue against
that. Nuria says yeah and she also can't
stand me, so she wants to blame me, since she needs to blame someone. What really hurts is that you'd believe
her. Don't you know me? Tobias head is spinning from everything and
what strikes him most odd is that Nuria keeps telling him that Felix and Hector
just wanted to rob her father, but he saw Felix actually try to kill him. Nuria says no he didn’t, he was just trying
to defend himself and that's why Tobias needs to keep his mouth shut. If he says what he saw they'll go to
jail..that is if her father dies. Tobias
says no matter what she says, Felix is a murderer. Nuria tells him to shut it. Why do you believe him over me? You just met him and you've known me forever,
and I've stood by you unconditionally.
Because Felix and I love each other, he's my boyfriend! Whaaaa?
Tobias looks repulsed.

Vino el Amor #66; Wednesday February 1, 2017: Mark goes to Jail; DisGrace called to Spain
David
and Luciana are conversing outside concerning Bobby and his well-being. The
conversation then gets personal between David and Luciana. David notices that
Luciana looks sad. She says it’s just a lot of things, mostly having to do with
her mother and Gutierrez. Then she mentions Miguel….David says, “What about
Miguel? Are there problems with work? Is there anything that I need to worry
about?” Luciana replies, “No, just personal problems. I don’t know why I said
anything.” David responds, “It’s okay if you don’t want to tell me about it I
respect that. But tell me one thing: I need to know if you have forgotten what
you felt for me when you have been with Miguel. Because I can’t forget….”
Luciana says, “It’s best that you say nothing because there is nothing we can do
to change or fix things.” David says, “I’m not so sure about that. Before I
move on to with things, there are a few things I need to take care of and fix.
I don’t want to do anything that will hurt anyone.”
