La Doble Vida de Estela Carilo, #20 Friday, It takes a village to write a recap
Hello, everybody!
I have to break my promise about having a recap ready because I simply couldn't bring myself to watch a silly telenovela after spending more than an hour on the news channels, trying to find what what on Earth is going on in London.
But you guys are amazing; barely need any recap at all to get the ball rolling, and for almost 100 comments no less.
I did steal some of your input about the show and added it here, for those who come back to visit the page later on. Thank you, Julie, I actually stole all your mini-recap (I would never get upset over that). Also, thank you to everyone who contributed (Alfredo, Diana, RGV, Kirby, Steve, Anita, Susanlynn, Nina)I stole little bits and pieces from all of your comments.
I hope this makes a little bit of sense to you.
Danilo and Nasty Co are going to pay Fausto, using Furia money under the guise that Laustela will do a solo album.
Laustela is supposed to become the only singer in Danilo's band, allegedly per El Dorado's orders (according to BunMan). She doesn't want to, but Morgana doesn't believe her.
Thanks to Chavalin's help (who's more useful from jail than any of the other characters), Laustela is now suspicious that Furia is laundering money, but does she suspects Ryan is the culprit? And because she fibbed to Genesis about her reason for wanting to know the name and address of the disc alleged presser, Genesis innocently blabbed Laustela's mission to Danilo, so Danilo knows that she's on the trail.
Laustela decides to tell Ryan about the blackmail and asks him for help (right turn); but then she goes and tells Danilow about her suspicions regarding the laundering of money (left turn). She pushes away Danilow for now, but she needs to be more cautious than that. In this particular situation Moronga (LOOOL) is right to be upset because she's being thrown to the curb, but why is it Laustela's fault? Initiating a fight with every man's darling (Laustela) was definitely not the right move for her, especially since she ended up losing. I have a feeling she will want a rematch soon. That is, if she has the time. It looks like she's about to be kicked to the curb, and Danilo isn't exactly thinking clean, no hard feelings break-up.
Danilo forces himself on Morgana. She eventually stops fighting, she even appears to enjoy it, but is she really? Also, Danilower then low seems to like it rough. I hope Laustela opens her eyes to this buffon FAST.
Osiel, La Tona's hubby, is dead.
Paloma is starting to soften's Mercy's cold heart. Is Rosario annoyed because faux grandma is buying too many presents, therefor spoiling the child, or is she jealous?
LetmeLearn, desperate to learn English, calls Tomas - the scruffy, thin man from the park. Because a guy met in the park for a few seconds is the best person to go to if you want to ask for a favor.
May I suggest she get her own show and leave ours in peace?
That's about it!
Once again, sorry for today, but I really didn't have the heart to do more this morning and now I have to run to work.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #19 6.1.17: If He Drugs You...He Doesn't Love You
Memories are in italics.
• Laustela doesn’t care about Ryan and Morgana’s kiss. In fact, she came to ask him for help regarding Chavalin’s situation.
• Ryan asks Joe to help Chavalin out. Joe will do what he can but he notes that falsifying IDs is a serious offense. Ryan then asks about Liz and Joe notes that they are thinking about splitting up.
• Laustela asks Genesis if she can give Leticia asylum at her apartment for a few days and Genesis accepts.
• Danilo tries to get Laustela to celebrate with him that the album is complete as does Morgana, who is still pissed at all the attention she is Danilo gives Laustela.
• Laustela and Rosario discuss the Ryan and Danilo situation to death. Laustela notes it’s temporary and she was clear with Danilo about her feelings. Danilo doesn’t seem to care and skips the celebration to eat lunch with them and Paloma at the house.
• The next day, Danilo discusses the money laundering scheme with “El Dorado.” ED notes that he will soon replace him as it usually the rule of life. Danilo smiles at the thought.
• Several days later, the showcase is about to commence and Danilo gets handsy with Laustela backstage, though she chides him immediately. Danilo then goes to Morgana’s dressing room, offers her a drink, and suggests she use her other ASSets since she has less than ideal singing skills. She tries to throw him out but her vision gets blurry and she faints on the couch.

La Piloto #63 6.1.17: In Which Yolanda Doesn't Follow Orders and Pays the Price
• Armed guards escort John and Arley out of the jail and to the waiting trucks. Arley teases John on the way to the squad cars before a guard orders him to shut up. John only smiles as they are loaded up into the cars, which drive away as a man observes from an adjacent roof. The man calls Oscar and tells him that the car carrying John just left.
• Later, Oscar then calls his men by the airstrip and orders them to stay put until Santamaria gives the order to move in. Santamaria tells Oscar that the extraction should be easy since there are only four squad cars protecting escorting John. Oscar asks him if they have to wait much longer but Santamaria asks him to be patient and then leaves the car to make sure the diversion is in place. Oscar reminds his men to stay sharp as it’s going to get good.
• Yolanda reminds Vergara that he has plenty of men that can kill John but Vergara reminds her that she must follow his orders or the baby dies. Yolanda understands and Vergara explains that she will fly with two men and they will relay the plan to her once they are up in the air. He then tells her that she will also have men are the ground to help her, if need be, and Yolanda nods before they leave.

La Candidata Miercoles, 5/31/17 Chapter 3 Regina Suspects Her Father Has a Lover
Chapter 3 – Regina suspects her father has a lover
“What relationship is there between the death of Florencia
and the video that has gone viral on the internet?”
“My son is another victim of this unfortunate event, and it
worries me like all of these unguarded young women. I will continue to work so
this doesn’t happen again”
The mob continues to hound her, not allowing her to get thru
when out of nowhere Gerardo appears and comes to the rescue. He takes over
answering questions defending Regina. He continues and ends the barrage by
stating that the reporters should allow the authorities to continue with the
investigation.
Alonso is in another part of town having just completed a
press conference and asks his assistant Magda and Pacheco “how did I do?”
Pacheco not holding back says “in my opinion, you should
have answered more questions”
“What? So that they could crucify me?”Magda chimes in and says “next time look directly at the camera, it makes you appear more truthful”
“See that’s a good critique”
As Alonso tries to retreat, a group of reporters catches up to him and complains about not being allowed to ask questions.
“What happened to being transparent?”
“Investigate all you want and you will see that my government is more transparent than water, as far as Florencia Oscura I have nothing else to say”
Pacheco jumps in and says “press conference is over”

La Piloto #62 5.31.17: In Which Yolanda Disappoints Dave (Again)...
• Oscar wonders how Santamaria found out about John’s extradition and Santamaria explains that he had Dave’s cell phone in his possession and was able to read his text message. Oscar thinks it’s a great coincidence but Santamaria reiterates that he’s not the enemy, in fact, he visited John in jail that morning. Oscar nods and asks for the information then though he realizes Santamaria must want something in return. Santamaria tells him that he is looking for Yolanda Cadena, because they have an old score to settle, though he doesn’t have many contacts in Mexico who can help him so he needs his help. Oscar tells him that Yolanda is a good friend of his, and he loves her very much, but he will turn her over, if only to help out his brother. They then agree and shakes on it though Oscar has one condition: kill Yolanda in the most painful way possible. Santamaria tells him that he will try but Oscar hopes he tries really hard and smiles.
• Yolanda and the girls looks over several maps and decide the best place to buy in order to build their airstrip. Yolanda then assigns them each a task: Lizbeth is inc charge of the airplanes and locating John’s personal airplane; Wilmer will be in charge of communications and will check out all of devices provided by Vergara; Olivia will be in charge of security. Zulima reminds the odd woman out as Yolanda doesn’t know where to place her. Zulima tells her that she can pilot the airplane but Yolanda reminds her that she doesn’t know how to; Zulima suggests Yolanda teach her and Yolanda agrees.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #18 5.31.17: A Confession of Love from a Coward with Bad Fashion Sense
• Having seen the gun, Ryan understands why Estela always said that her life depended on what was in the blue suitcase; he assumes she always her knew father’s lifestyle would catch up to her. Laustela notes the gun is new, and barely touch, before Ryan suggests she keep it, for protection. Laustela hesitates and Ryan reminds her that he already saw her handle a gun and knows she can use it. Laustela hopes she never has to use it.
• That night, Laustela and Ryan arrive home for a change of clothes. Ryan gives her the suitcase and asks her to hide the gun. Laustela nods, goes to Ryan’s room and looks for a place to hid it.
• Morgana finally finds Chavalin at the bakery, explains that she’s Laustela’s friend, and tells him that Paloma, Laustela’s daughter, had to go to the hospital. He asks if she’s okay and Morgana nods as Chavalin takes out his cell to call Laustela. Morgana stops him, reminds him she’s at the hospital, and asks how he is related to Laustela. Chavalin thinks it’s strange she doesn’t know, since Laustela sent her, but she looks untrustworthy either way so it could be that she’s not as friendly with Laustela as she originally told him. Morgana tells him to calm down, she just thought Laustela had no family, but he explains that he’s an uncle on Laustela’s mother side. He then asks Morgana to leave as he’s very busy and has to call his niece. Morgana nods, huffs and puffs, and hurries out.

La Piloto #61 5.30.17: In Which Yolanda is Back Where She Started...
• Monica walks to the shower and remembers when Joanna and her cohorts threatened her in the recreation yard. She then remembers when they beat her up in her cell and warned her not to fight back. She gets to the showers but finds no peace; Joanna and her cohorts are waiting to tease and berate her. Monica warns them to leave her alone but Joanna warns her to be careful and listen to all her instructions unless she wants her to cut off her tongue for insubordination. They leave her be while she showers.
• Vergara sends Yolanda, Lizbeth, Olivia, Wilmer and Estela to where Zulima is waiting for them. They are all happy to see her, and introduce Wilmer, before Vergara announces that Yolanda has decided to work for their organization and distribute drugs along the same routes as the Lucios. Estela is happy to hear it, as narcos make great money, and then asks about Rosalba and the baby. Vergara explains that they are safe in an undisclosed location, incubator and all. He then tells Yolanda that they need her to start ASAP and asks her what she needs. Yolanda tells him they need helicopters, a plane and an airstrip where they can land and take off. Vergara nods.
• Some time later, Vergara brings Yolanda a suitcase full of cash and tells her it’s her it’s her pocket cash. He then reminds her that nothing is free and this cash is more of a loan than a gift as they will deduct every red cent from her first paycheck. Yolanda nods and Vergara gives her the cell phones she asked for before reminding her that they are not to make personal calls and she should always remember that any stupidity on her part would only hurt her aunt and the baby, in that order. He then leaves them to work and Estela jumps at the money. She closes the suitcase and tells them that they must take care of it.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #17 5.30.17: Empty Perfume Bottles & (Not So) Empty Threats
• Paloma wakes up, crawls out of bed, and sees that Rosario and Laustela are not in the room with her. She goes off to find her.
• In the meantime, Rosario is in the laundry room, oblivious to Paloma’s escape.
• Ryan is in the kitchen, contemplating taking a drink but decides to pour it down the sink. Morgana comes and asks for a drink; he obliges and she tells him that nothing better than a stiff drink to wash over life’s troubles.
• Paloma goes to Mercy’s room, sees the lamp shaped perfume bottle and decides to pretend to be “Mercy.” She demands the perfume bottle from Rita and then proceeds to stray some on neck. Accidently, she sprays some into her mouth and begins to cough and sneeze uncontrollably.
• Laustela is in Ryan’s room, thinking, when there’s a knock on the door. It’s Danilo, with guitar in hand. He has come to show her his new song and asks him to sing it, so she can feel better. Danilo begins to sing as Laustela smiles.
• Ryan asks if things are bad with Danilo and Morgana confesses that she feels he doesn’t pay attention to her anymore. Ryan reminds her that he’s busy with the new album but Morgana extends her fingertips to Ryan and explains that she and Danilo haven’t been together in a while. Ryan suggests she talk to Danilo but Morgana reminds him that she’s a young, beautiful woman that still has a lot to give a man. She gets close to Ryan and asks if she is beautiful. Ryan nods but tells her that he needs to go and does as Morgana smiles.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #16 5.29.17: The Double Life of (Pretty Much Everyone but Paloma)
Memories are in italics.
• At Furia. Danilo warns Calao to be careful as his extracurricular activities almost got them in trouble with Ryan. Calao reiterates that it’s not his fault they sent him for Laustela but Danilo is happy after all because he now knows the real reason Laustela went back with Ryan: Calao’s threats. Calao smiles but shakes his head and denies having threatened Laustela. Danilo does remind him that he is his boss so if he falls, so does Calao.
• Ryan wants to know who hacked his medical file but Steve shakes his head. Ryan has no idea who would be interested, as only Mercy knew, and his lawyers went through great lengths to make sure his stint in the rehabilitation center wasn’t brought up in the trial. Ryan assumes it could be Pedro’s people, investigating his past to see how they can blackmail him, or it could have to do with Laustela’s threats. Steve is confused and frustrated as Ryan just told him he thought the threats were a lie.

La Candidata Lunes, 5/29/17 Chapter 1: Looking for Guilt
Foreword
After
years of chronicling the lives of the rich and shameless I am still
astonished at how similar they are no matter the country or culture.
The newly rich like Eladio Gomez-Luna will buy their respectability
through the silence and compliance of others. In the end he fell
short of becoming another Gerald Bradley because the latter never
fooled the set who regarded him as an interloper. In the end – if
what I heard about his death was true – he was ultimately unable to
fool himself. Since I no longer practice the faith of my upbringing
I am done speculating on whether he is in Purgatory or elsewhere.
I
have found new examples of the ultimate indulgences of such people.
While there is no Coliseum or Circus Maximus in Mexico City the San
Románs share some of the vices of certain historical personages
echoed by their name. Only modern civil law and my profession have –
thus far – held the line against the rise of a new Caligula or
Nero. I am a latter-day Suetonius, telling tales of hypocrisy,
corruption, and crimes that attempt to defy discovery and go without
punishment. I present my tales to you, my elite readers, that you
may judge these people for who they are.
Sit
back and read at your leisure. At least our wine is better than that
which was consumed by the Caesars.
- D.D.

La Piloto #59, 5-26-17: Bad Boys Brawl But Bad Broads Rule
Monica sits in her jail cell thinking back to how the state prosecutor doesn’t understand her, I.e., how she could have let herself bow to the demands of a couple of (insidious and predatory) redneck narcos anymore than she could ever understand DEADave’s’s rejecting her sexual advances. (You mean besides Yolanda’s being a beautiful, brave and alluring bad girl?)

La doble vida de Estela Carrillo, # 15, Friday 05/26/15 Dumb and dumber make a fine couple, indeed
This is from memory (watched while cooking dinner), so sorry for any mistakes; I did a lot of editing, I combined scenes for better flow, stupid dialogues were ignored (almost everything having to do with the Threesome that nobody asked for, formed by LetMe, Eraser and Brujita).
Estela is waiting for Ryan at the restaurant, but he's a no show. She calls Furia and Genesis tells her that Ry forgot his phone at work because he left in a hurry - he needed to "save" someone. This worries Estela, she asks Genesis to search for the last call on Ryan's phone and give her the number. (Note to Ryan: password protect your phone, you silly idiot.)
She then calls said number and ends up at a rehabilitation clinic where a receptionist tells her that Mr. Cabrera has been checking in, without giving any further information.
Estela is impactada that Ryan would hide something this important from her and tells Chayo that she needs to further investigate. There is no way that she can tell him her own deep dark secrets as long as HE has deep dark secrets of his own.
So these two lovable fools already have a rocky relationship three days into their dating/ engagement (who would have guessed, with all the lying by omission, by mistake, on purpose, for the grater good etc etc..). When they meet back at the house, Ryan apologizes for standing her up at the restaurant, in the process making up a story about some business deal that he had to solve asap. Estela pretends to believe him, but decides to do some investigating into Ryan Cabrera, Man of Many Secrets and ardent lover.

La Piloto #58 5.25.17: In Which Yolanda Realizes Her Nightmare is Far From Over...
• Dave wants to be a DEA again and accepts the offer to take over Montgomery’s position. He reiterates that they still have plenty to do including dismantling the whole Lucio operation.

The Senator reminds her that they all fall should John talk but the Consul wants more details so they can take care of the problem. Vergara explains that they tried to rescue John in Villa Antigua but it failed and they are looking at other options. Oscar tells them that he will rescue his brother, no matter what, and storms out.

La Piloto #57 5.24.17: In Which Yolanda Steals a Baby...
• The Senator is pissed and with good reason: John has been officially detained and will be extradited to the US by the DEA, Oscar has done nothing thus far to rescue John from prison and he cannot locate his fellow Sombra partners with the exception of the Governor. Vergara tries to make excuses for them but the Senator is tired of excuses and will fix everything when he’s President. For now, he wants Vergara to cal Montgomery and ensure John doesn’t say anything to the DEA.
• The girls watch the press conference in the hospital as Zulima looks on. A hospital employee comes and asks for family members of Amanda. Yolanda tells her that she didn’t have any one but them and the employee asks them to come with her.
• Fajarado meets Raul and Monica. They hand over Montgomery’s cell phone and Fajarado nods as he looks over the evidence.
• Santamaria and Rubio arrive at Cielito Lindo and decide to ditch the ambulance there; they notice how close the bar is to AeroTours.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #13 5.24.17: Let Your Body Do the Talking...
• In Asdrubal's office, Danilo isn’t sure if Laustela is gone for forever, because she left and came back three years ago, but if she does, he and Morgana would have had their own child by then and claimed the 20%. He does lament that Laustela left without sleeping with him but Asdrubal reminds him that Laustela needs to come back ASAP lest Ryan open up an investigation into her whereabouts. If he does, the police may investigate Furia and that would make El Dorado very unhappy. He instructs Danilo to think and make sure Laustela comes back so everything is calm.
• Laustela explains that everything is over between because she can’t continue to be Estela Carrillo, not with all the problems it has caused. Ryan proposes they find a solution but Laustela thinks the only solution is to be far away from him and start a new life. She asks Ryan to let her go, if he loves her, because she can’t be Estela but she can’t go back to Laura Oviedo, either. Ryan asks her to please tell him why not but Laustela shakes her head and asks that he not make things harder. Ryan can’t let her go, not knowing that she and her daughter are in danger, but Laustela asks him to leave her be. Ryan nods and hopes she realizes the mistake she’s making. He leaves and Laustela breaks down.

La Piloto #56 5.23.17: In Which Yolanda Gets Some Very Bad News...
• John calls Dave, Monica and Garrido idiots because he will escape either way. Monica agrees, takes out her gun, and slams John against the wall. She proposes they take care of the problem right then and there and John challenges her to do so.
• Yolanda tells Raul that Monica, Garrido and Dave are guarding John and they will do so until the DEA comes to arrest him. Raul asks how she was able to capture John and Olivia tells him that Yolanda is a fighter and they all laugh. Yolanda tells them that it was either that or the Lucios were going to kill them all. She proposes they talk about it later but Wilmer wants to hear the whole story of John’s capture.
• Garrido and Dave tell Monica to put down the gun and not ruin all they’ve accomplished till now. John reminds Monica that they killed Sofia and she goes in for the kill but Dave manages to wrestle the gun away from her and then punch John in the face. Garrido then receives a call from one of his men, who tells him that the two trucks that were seen in the vicinity, presumably to help John escape, have taken the bait and are following their squad cars. He relays the news to Dave and Monica and John laughs before telling them that Oscar will never give up on him. Dave suggests Garrido order reinforcements and not let Oscar escape. John continues to laugh, hysterically.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #12 5.23.17: Love Letters & Songs Make Excellent Firewood
Memories are in italics.
Laustela's letter is bolded.
• Ryan goes in for the kiss but Laustela tells him she is going to see Paloma and leaves.
• Calao informs Asdrubal that they rescued Laustela and dropped her off where he instructed but it was with her friend because she never let her go. Asdrubal asks if anyone saw them but Calao confirmed no one did but ICE will likely investigate, especially because they released at least a dozen illegal immigrants. Asdrubal doubts it but either way they let them escape close to the Mexican border so someone is sure to catch them. He tells Calao to turn on the radio or the TV so he can sure and leaves.
• Laustela goes to visit Paloma, who welcomes her with open arms, and hugs her tightly. Paloma wants to know where she was but Laustela tells her it doesn’t matter because she’s back and loves her very much. Paloma loves her and Rosario very much too; they hug again.

La Piloto #55, 5-22-17: The Time Bomb Explodes
- While Yolanda and DEADave are walking back to AeroTours, John is on the cell phone telling Oscar which cell he’s in and where it’s located. “—We’re working on it, Bro.”
- Yolo tells Dave she’s tired of all the crap she’s been put through and it was never what she wanted (I believe. Again I have no CC’s.) She notes a scratch from a bullet on his arm. They go into Auntie Rosalba’s old bedroom to fix it up. The two fix up their relationship as well. Love in the afternoon transpires.
- Rubio and SantaMaria drive towards the AeroTours parking lot in the meantime and Viewerville panics. There’s a request for the ambulance driver (now presumably dead as a doornail out in the campo somewhere) to report in by radio.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #11 5.22.17: To ICE(y) Hell and Back...
• Mercy tells Ryan that she took 5 pills and Ryan insists on taking her to the hospital. Mercy doesn’t want to because she loves being there with her two children. Ryan thinks she’s talking nonsense and goes to make a call.
• Danilo announces to the audience that he is going to perform a new song for a friend, who he hopes knows he is always there to help her. Morgana smiles, thinking it’s her, but Laustela, walking backstage, hears him and smiles, knowing it’s really their song. Danilo begins to sing and sees Laustela at the edge of the stage. He sings to her but Morgana begins to dance seductively in front of him and takes him away. Laustela shakes her head at the whole thing and leaves as Danilo tells Morgana to put a sock in it and get off the stage.
• Later, in the dressing room, Laustela asks Morgana if she is okay but Morgana chides her for the poor condition of the dressing room because there isn’t even a sofa for her to lie down when she has a headache. Laustela explains that it is simple festival, and they don’t have fancier accommodations, but Morgana reminds her that she should, at least for the guests of honor. Laustela will be sure to tell Ryan and Tato and goes to leave but Morgana asks if she’s Ryan’s woman because she would like to give Ryan her message personally and see if she can flirt with him. Laustela smiles and reiterates that she will tell him as Genesis comes and tells Laustela that Don Chayo is ready to go on stage and need her help. Laustela leaves with her but leaves her beg behind. Morgana sees it, checks to see no one is outside, and takes it with her.

La Piloto #54, 5-19-17: Catch But No Release
Part 1~~
Zuli eavesdrops as Lisbet and Raul get whatever information they can on Amanda’s condition by Raul pulling rank with his badge. They learn that she was hit by a car and is now being prepped for the baby’s delivery, 2 months prematurely. Zuli decides to disguise herself as a janitor (we assume to finish the job on Mandy). Olivia calls Bette just then and gets the word. She and Wilmer drive up to the hospital.
DEADave and Yolanda drop Moni off at the police station—where both of them are now personas non gratas—for the latest. Dave gives Yoli more bullets and tells her naively that everything will be just fine now that John’s behind bars. Yoli, wise to that says nope, not till he’s behind bars in the States will it be over.

La doble vida de Estela Carrillo #10 Friday, 05/19/2017 First kiss, first fight
Sorry this is late, but whenever I got into writing, my daughter needed something: to dance, to play, a snack...
Here goes, I hope I didn't forget anything.
There is a party at Furia. They are celebrating Estela's arrival , Don Chayo signing a new contract and Danilo becoming part owner of the company. Morgana wants Dani to introduce her as the girlfriend, but he barely acknowledges her presence. He is busy talking to Don Chayo's lawyer, trying to convince him to go into the money laundering business. The lawyer is appalled at first, but Dani seems to be getting to him.
Mercy and Joe leave the party early; she's had enough of her step-son for now. There is some news in the papers: the prosecutor who worked on Ryan's case and his assistant died in an "accident".
Estela asks Ryan to leave the party room, too, because she needs tomake out talk things out with him. Why is he still on her case, he does know that she's leaving as soon as the Jaripeo is over, right? He takes her to somewhere more private, the stage of the big auditorium where the festival will take place. They get into a fight about his reasons for inquiring into her future. Why does he care, why can't a promise for help be just that, with no strings attached?
Ryan can't help it, he needs to discover the mystery that is Estela and all her mysterious life and mysterious past and ... he gets the crazy eyes, if she weren't into him so much, it would look borderline obsessive. Estela says that she needs her space, but what Estela actually wants is to kiss him. And that she does, with no resistance coming from him. Bright screen behind them, it looks like the perfect first kiss...that is, until Ryan says that he never thought anyone would make him feel the same as Realstela did. Dude! Way to ruin a good thing. Good luck getting back into Fauxstela's graces now.

Here goes, I hope I didn't forget anything.
There is a party at Furia. They are celebrating Estela's arrival , Don Chayo signing a new contract and Danilo becoming part owner of the company. Morgana wants Dani to introduce her as the girlfriend, but he barely acknowledges her presence. He is busy talking to Don Chayo's lawyer, trying to convince him to go into the money laundering business. The lawyer is appalled at first, but Dani seems to be getting to him.
Mercy and Joe leave the party early; she's had enough of her step-son for now. There is some news in the papers: the prosecutor who worked on Ryan's case and his assistant died in an "accident".
Estela asks Ryan to leave the party room, too, because she needs to

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #9 5.18.17: Two Lawsuits and a Surprise Party Later...
Hey all! Sorry it's only bullet points but here goes:
Read more »
- Danilo asks Ruben to think of a way to benefit from his shooting but poor Ruben's still trying to recover.
- Ryan comes and reveals that he went to Michoacan to find out more information about her past and everyone told him that her and Fausto took Herminia's and left her in the lurch. Laustela explains that Fausto lied and didn't tell her the money was stolen from her aunt; she found out later that it was Herminia's. She laments the fact that her aunt died thinking she was a thief but tells Ryan that she, Paloma and Rosario are gone after they pay her the festival money. Ryan hopes she keeps her word this time.
- Mercy then finds Ryan and insists she register Paloma as his daughter, pronto, and he reveals that she is actually not his. Sometime later, she tells Joe the truth about Paloma, worried, as Danilo can now impregnate any old bimbo and win the 20% of them.
- Later, Laustela finds the box Ryan brought back with her things and cries, remembering her love for aunt.
- Mercy and Danilo have another confrontation and Danilo shuts Mercy up by telling her that she is looking mighty good lately, much to her surprise.
- The next day, Genesis tells Laustela about the latest media scandal: Ruben reported Don Chayo for shooting him because he was jealous that his band was going to perform at the festival. Laustela is shocked as she thought Ruben had cleared up the incident and declared it was an accident.

John answers and asks Dave where he is. Dave is shocked to hear John and asks him what happened to Monica.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo #7, 5-16-17, Breaking News: Dead Men DoTell Tales
Anita, here, substituting
for Alfredo, so he can have the night off. I apologize for the lack of detail,
but my heart is in it. Some short scenes have been combined. Ok, here we go---
Lo de Ayer
Laustela tries to convince Mr. Everwood of the real reason for the mass shooting at the Foundation. He refuses to believe that it’s all about the gangs trying to re-establish lost territory by frightening the citizens of Riverside into looking to the gangs for protection. That and then recruiting new gang members, even from the Foundation. Estela is there to warn him. He still doesn’t believe her and points out that the home invasion at Estela’s proves the action was taken against her specifically and not by throwing blame for the danger to the neighborhood on others. She knows that El Caravelas, a gang member is involved. Everwood is still not convinced as he’s the nephew of Bettina, who is very helpful to the foundation. He thinks Estela is the one responsible and trying to blame others.
Meanwhile, at the La Furia offices, after the reading of the will, Ryan is trying to calm a very agitated Mercy saying he will never abandon her or leave her unprotected. That’s not what she’s worried about. She’s worried about Ryan and what will happen to La Furia in the hands of that buffoon—as she points to Danilo. Ryan is calm. He says what’s written is written and he plans to follow his father’s wishes.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #6 5.15.17: Everyone's Lying & Some are Almost Dying...
• In the car, Laustela laments the fact that Paloma’s teddy bear is destroyed; she cannot give it like that to the girl. Ryan reminds her it is only a teddy bear but Laustela thinks he only says that because he doesn’t have kids. After a moment of silence, she chances the station and raises the volume of a regional music song and begins to sing along. Ryan is surprised is knows all the words and Laustela confesses that it reminds her of home. She goes to turn down the volume but Ryan stops her and they share a moment. She asks if he is done asking questions and Ryan confirms he is, for now. She then asks her if he is willing to help her and Paloma become legal citizens and Ryan confirms he will, as long as she goes along with their charade for as long as he needs her too. Laustela reminds him that their “relationship” is in appearances only and Ryan chides her for nagging so much. He assumes that is why Paloma’s father left but Laustela prefers he keep trying and stop asking stupid questions. She raises the volume again and Ryan tells her that he can introduce her to Don Chayo. Laustela is ecstatic but asks if that too is part of their deal. Ryan smiles but is quiet.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #5, Friday 5/12/17 Ryan saves Estela, Estela saves Ryan. But who will save Danilo… from his own stupidity?
The old:
Ryan takes Estella, Chayo and Palomita to his mansion. Mercy almost has a heart attack in seeing them, but Ryan says he brought his "family" home, so she better deal with it, or else...
In order to keep up the pretense of a reunion, Estella and Ryan need to share the same room, so Paloma has to sleep with Chayo in a separate part of the house.
Also, Estella just happens to get a glimpse of Ryan's "goods" - the girl likes what she sees and he doesn't mind the admiration. Dudes, I understand that you have to play pretend, do you wanna make things easier by just going for it?
Mercy goes to a bar and who is there to join her? Young, married Joe, the company lawyer and Mercy's boy toy apparently.
Danilo sees them making out in the car later in the evening - he's sure to take advantage of this bit of information later on. He also realizes that working for El Dorado comes with serious, dangerous strings attached. Will this be enough for him to say no?
On the other hand, Morgana is more than willing to accept the deal.
Mercy and Pedro Carillo apparently share a common history. She has his picture hidden in her room - wonder what this is about...

The Mansion
We
pick up with Mercy again, while she’s burning Pedro Carillo’s photo. She looks
serious. And crazy.
Estella
is in panic mode because Paloma has disappeared (so she believes). The
housekeeper explains that she overheard a conversation between Ryan and Mercy –
Paloma was present and she was saying that she wants to go back home, in
Riverside. So is that where Ryan took the girl?
Estella
is about to explode. Why would he take Paloma? How dare he not inform her
first? Just then Mercy comes to the kitchen, and doesn’t understand what the
big fuss is about? Isn’t Ry Paloma’s dad?
Uhhhh,
yeah, sure, but it’s not like he’s very paternal, Estella insists and not even
Chayo’s attempts to calm her down succeed. Mercy wonders why Estella decided to
testify and tell Ryan about having a child together – were his letters such a
turning point for her? Also, maybe she should take some anxiolytics if she’s so
nervous (hehe). Chayo thinks a tea would suffice.
Estella
wants neither, she storms off in search of Paloma. She won’t take Chayo with
her, in case Daddy Kidnapper shows up.

Vino El Amor 5/12/17 Alternate Ending is Finally Dunne
It's
been a little while since I've visited wine country. It was time to
catch up with some of the people I've met there. While it's usually
a little more relaxed than the social scenes in the major cities,
it's not without tales with more juice than the grapes in Napa
Valley. Here is a section from my forthcoming book, More Grapes
of Wrath.
–
D.D.
It
was 1 AM and David Robles could not sleep. Most would think that
normal for a bridegroom, even one who had previous experience of this
event. The truth was he had looked for any excuse to not marry Graciela.

Vino El Amor: Alternate Endings 5/11/17
Note: This will have multiple endings added as they come in. Mine is posted on its own only because I am extremely verbose. My apologies if that looks narcissistic. Julie's has been added.
Delilah's
ending
Luciana
realizes that the best thing is for her to finally put HERSELF first.
She tells her family that she realizes she needs to be away to grow
and pursue her love of wine and so she is going to travel through
Europe and taste wine, maybe work at a vineyard. It's heartbreaking
for David especially who begs her not to leave, but alas she does
anyway vowing to always love him.

Vino el Amor y Se Fué, Postmortem, 5-11-2017
ALONG CAME LOVE, PASSED THROUGH
AND KEPT ON GOING
Disgraced Came Along and Ruined Everything
FIRST AND FOREMOST
Julie: Here are
some lessons I've learned from VEA:- Women are hopelessly fickle.
- Men are hopelessly fickle.
- True love is a fantasy.
- People really can change...they can get meaner and dumber.
Susanlynn: So many lessons learned via this show....all of them depressing . In most telenovelas in the past, women viewers want to be with the galan and male viewers want to be him. In this show…not so much.
Now, presenting a DisGraced Graciela with a few Dudveeds thrown in for variety. This round-up is not comprehensive or complete. Many of the contributions come from 4 of our wordsmiths, Kirby, Susanlynn, Lila and Julie. The Patio thanks them for the diversion and helping us through this show.
Urban: on Graciela: “She is a legend in her own mind. She thinks she is All That and a Bag of Chips.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #3 5.10.17: Out of the Frying Pan and into a Fiery Pit...
• The defense rests and the prosecution asks Laustela when she renewed her relationship with Ryan. Laustela explains that it was recent because she realized he was the love of her life but the prosecution calls to dismiss her testimony as her relationship with Ryan shows clear favoritism. The defense tries to object but the judge shakes head. Laustela explains that her father opposed her relationship with Ryan because he thought it was a passing fancy and the prosecution assumes that’s why Ryan hated Pedro Carrillo. Laustela tells him that Ryan didn’t hate her father and explains that Pedro was a criminal who could’ve been killed my one of his many enemies. The prosecution asks for proof, especially because she may be an accomplice to her father’s criminal activities, but Laustela makes it clear she only found out about it after Pedro passed and he knew none of his father’s contacts.
• At the narco party, Danilo and his band continue to play. All the narcos drink and dance around as Danilo tries to catch the attention of the woman in the chaise. Morgana is none too happy about this but continues to sing, When Danilo gets closer to the chaise with drinks, one of the El Dorado men grabs him and points a gun at his privates. He reveals that the woman is El Dorado’s main squeeze and Danilo should be careful.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #2 5.9.17: Telling the Truth is Overrated...
• Ryan deduces that Laustela stole Estela’s identity and wonders what sort of deal an illegal immigrant can offer. Laustela goes to leave but Ryan stops her and tells her he will listen to her since they can help each other.
• Danilo gives Rita, the servant girl, a stack of clothes to wash and iron but Mercy comes and informs him that Rita only comes twice a week because a servant girl in the US is a luxury most can’t afford. Rita leaves.
• Laustela proposes that she testify in favor of Ryan and he forgets about her for the rest of his life. Ryan reminds her that the real Estela was his woman so she would have to pretend that she loves him and is deeply committed to him. Laustela wonders why Estela there to help so Ryan reveals that Estela is dead and that is why he needed to see her. She tries to leave but Ryan has a counteroffer.
• Danilo pushes the servant issue with Mercy, who reveals that despite having Walter’s name and a US citizenship, the only child Walter recognized was Ryan and he shouldn’t expect much from the will. Danilo thinks Walter could’ve left him something like part ownership of Furia productions but Mercy tells him you need an education to direct a company. Danilo reminds her that he’s never been accused of murderer even if he doesn’t have an education.

Vino el Amor, Lunes 5/8/17 Chapter 142, el Gran Final: The Curse Is Lifted
This
finale would be completely right if the rest of the series had been
better-written. I have thus given it a mostly straight retelling.
Gracias to my fabulous team – dy77, Cynthia, Julie, Delilah, Sonia,
and Anita – for doing better than justice to this mediocre novela.
This is the wrap-up episode to Friday's action-packed one and I wish
they had been shown together as the producers meant them to.
Univision, take note of that.

Vino el Amor, #141a, Friday May 5, 2017: Sideways
A Fall from Grace
Grace Under Pressure
Lil and Grace
The Many Faces of Grace (thanks RC)
Juan says to Lilian, "your daughter Lisa didn't die in an accident like everyone thinks. Graciela killed her!" Graciela slowly turns to face her mother.
Lil asks Juan to clarify. Juan explains that he saw Grace coming back from the river after killing Lisa. Grace lamely tries to deny it, but by now she's so nervous she sounds like a chipmunk and has no credibility at all.
Juan reminds Lil of the time Grace abruptly went back to Spain, and the time she agreed to a pact for the three of them, and has always done whatever Juan told her to do, including defending Juan when David was going to fire him, and getting out of the way when Juan wanted to buy Los Olivos. She always helped Juan in exchange for his silence. Grace calls Juan a liar, but Juan continues calmly, "you never let me down until now!"

La Piloto #43 5.4.17: In Which Yolanda Safely Lands in Mexico but is Barely Safe...
• Santamaria and Rubio walk to the airstrip in Reposo and Rubio is surprised to know that Santamaria knew about the airstrip beforehand. Santamaria explains he didn’t know the narcos used it and they both agree that money can move mountains. They arrive at the airstrip but notice two men (Pinto and Helper #137) wrapping a tarp over the back of an airplane. They walk over to them and comment on the fact that the men haven’t even noticed them. Santamaria shouts good morning to Pinto and then takes out his gun. Both men immediately surrender and Pinto confirms that he knows who Santamaria is. Santamaria smiles and asks where Yolanda is. Pinto wants to know why he wants her since they have orders to kill her on sight. Santamaria nods and punches both Pinto and his helper before confirming that he doesn’t want Yolanda dead like him does.
• Dave, Reyes and some military officers stop and look at the map. Dave tells them that they need to search the area he has designated for the secret airstrip and Reyes reminds the men to be careful as Santamaria has an officer helping him and they are both armed with nothing to lose. They decide to spread out and get back in the car to find the airstrip.
• Some time later, Santamaria and Rubio look around the airstrip but find it too quiet. In another part of the airstrip, Yolanda and Diego arrive and begin to look around. Santamaria sees her and shouts her name before firing a few rounds. Diego and Yolanda take cover behind a car parked next to the airstrip and Diego behind to fire back at Santamaria.

Vino el Amor #140 (Univision 129); Thursday, May 4, 2017: Vino la Verdad (The truth has arrived!)
[This is my last recap
for the series. I have very much enjoyed this group of followers and all the
comments. You all have been great. Hope that many of you join us for “La
Candidata” when it begins.]
Repeated scene: Luciana arrives in front of David’s
office in hopes of talking with him. But before she even can get close to the
door, she sees David and DisGrace together, locked in embrace, kissing each
other. In tears, she runs out.
DisGrace is in semi-meltdown and asks why the papers he
was supposed to sign weren’t on his desk. She is wondering now if he just said
he needed to go to his office to sign something just to be alone and get away
from her. Dave says, “That isn’t true, Susan was supposed to leave some papers
here.” Grace begins her frantic little act again and starts acting very
insecure and tells David how much she loves him and kisses him some more.

New Novela Alert: La Doble Vida de Estela Carillo
New Novela Alert:
Next week La doble Vida de Estela Carrillo starts, anyone want to recap it? It sounds like it might be good, the story line deals with an undocumented immigrant who saves her students after a shooting in Riverside, she becomes a hero but can't afford to have anyone know that she's in the country illegally.
If anyone else is up for this one I'm willing to recap.
La Piloto #42 5.3.17: In Which Yolanda Makes Contact With the Wrong (and Right) People...
• Santamaria asks Rubio for a mirror so he can see himself. Rubio hesitates so Santamaria rips off his IV cable and goes to the bathroom. He looks at himself in the mirror and sees his right eye, half closed and mangled, before cursing Yolanda’s name. Rubio suggests he sit down and rest but Santamaria reminds him that Garcia is going to send the military police to arrest him for his crimes and they need to leave ASAP. Rubio reminds him that Castro will protect them but Santamaria calls Castro an idiot, just like Rubio, and assumes the DEA must know he kidnapped Yolanda too. Rubio sits down Santamaria, who stands up again, and tells Rubio to go to the street and steal a car and park it in the garage immediately so they can go. He also wants Rubio to find out if Yolanda talked to Amparo since she will need her help if she has not been able to fly out of Colombia. Rubio obliges and leaves to find a car as Santamaria curses Yolanda again.
• At the base, Dave tells Reyes that he’s going to visit Santamaria but Reyes thinks it’s useless since he won’t tell him anything. Dave reminds him that Santamaria’s career is over and he would have no reason to hide what they now all know. Dave reiterates that he needs to find Yolanda before leaving Colombia but Reyes tells him she must be long gone. Dave doesn’t care and Reyes offers to go to Medellin with him. They go off.

Repeated scene: Miguel apologizes to Luciana for his
previous possessive behavior. She says he does have a point and he says it was
just not the way to do things. He feels badly about the way he treated her. Then
Luciana says she needs him to help her completely forget David.
“So what can I do to help you forget about David”, says
Miguel
“Oh I don’t know.”
“Well, I am going to have to get you to think about
something else. Hey I have an idea. How about if I organize a trip for us to
present this wine in other countries?”
“I love the idea”, says Luciana. “You always know how to
make me feel good.”
“And other times, we can just work in the vineyard, with
the soil and tending the vines, just like you love to do. In fact, why don’t we
go outside and start now?”

La Piloto #41 5.2.17: In Which Yolanda Makes a Daring Escape
• Santamaria immediately wants to get to business but Yolanda tells him they have plenty of time and hands him another shot. He chugs it down as she takes off her shirt and throws him on the bed. She kisses his neck and strokes his ego with sweet words when he stops her and shakes his head, trying to focus his eyes. Yolanda notices as he begins to struggle and she tells him to be quiet before anyone hears them.
• Reyes tells Dave that he doubts Santamaria will let them inside the base, especially if he’s holding Yolanda hostage. Dave suggests they speak directly to the brigade and Reyes is shocked at how far he’s willing to go to save Yolanda. Dave reveals that he thought she was dead but now he knows she isn’t. Reyes asks what he will do if they find Yolanda in the base but Dave doesn’t know. He begs Reyes to call the brigade in the meantime.
• Olivia shows her mother the board she’s made of her enemies starting with the Lucios. Her mother is confused so Olivia explains that the Lucios communicate via radio unless the distance is too far, then they use cell phones. For them to make international calls, their roaming must be on which means they must use a local cell phone company in Mexico to get their service. Her mother agrees but they must have used fake names and Olivia agrees. She sits down, frustrated, and tells her mother that the phone company wouldn’t have given her the information regardless; the DEA or federal police must ask for it.

Vino el Amor #138 (Univision #127), May 2, 2017: Vino el Killa Bridezilla
In this episode, we've got blackmail, regrets, worries, dumb moves, and a whole bunch of killa bridezilla faces!
This is my last recap. I had high hopes for this show, but ultimately the writing just was not good and the main promoted couple was probably the worst couple I've ever seen on a telenovela. So it's definitely not going down for me as a favorite. On the plus side, the villains were fun and the supporting characters were fairly fleshed out. There were some good performances in the cast. I really thought Kimberly Dos Ramos stood out as Gracie - one of the more intriguing and crazy villains I've seen in one of these. She gave great screencap face, so for my last recap, I am going to salute those crazy faces one last time.
In the end, I had a good time laughing at the whole thing and I guess in that sense, I was entertained! Which is all I ask of the telenovelas I watch. Thank you to all of the fellow recappers and to all of you who posted nice words for my recaps and had a good time commenting on the show.

Vino el Amor, Lunes 5/1/17 Chapter 137: Head-Scratchers
Juan watched the video on the
cell phone, horrified at the shooting of Perla, whom he had cared
about after all. He almost collapsed on the bed next to the dead
girl, crying and shouting, “You will pay for this, Graciela! You
will pay!”

La Piloto #39, 4-28-2017: Flight To Freedom So Near and Yet So Far•
Yolanda’s attempts to get into the helicopter are foiled by Castro who’s been sent to guard it. She pretends she’s only there getting extra buckets for watering. Col. SantaMaria catches her there and screams at her to get back into the tent.
• Los Lucio are traveling to meet El Senador; John’s flying and Zulima asks him to teach her to fly. To shut her up he tells her it’s not for everyone. She whines that he taught Yolanda. Well, Yo! was born to fly, he tells her. However, when they get back he’ll give her a chance and if she has what it takes he’ll take her on. (That shuts her up, at least, whether the intent or not.) And he leaves her in charge of the ranch while they’re gone.
• At the prison, Bette is unwillingly introduced to her roommate’s deplorables. She excuses herself to get a bit of fresher air.

Vino el Amor, #136, Friday Apr 28, 2017: Cell Phone of Doom II
Sorry, Lisa's phone. We liked you. But we like Perla's phone better. Because sometimes the sequel is better than the original.
Grace's phone says "UNKNOWN," and she doesn't take the call. She says it's probably a vendor for the wedding and she can't deal with any more of those calls today. (Do a lot of reputable businesses like to show up as "UNKNOWN" on caller ID? I doubt it. UNKNOWN means Rachel from Card Services, or one of her friends. If it's important, they leave a message!)
David takes the liberty of picking up and is surprised to hear Juan. "Why the hell are you calling Graciela?" David asks. "Why don't you ask her?" replies Juan. But clever, vestless David says he won't take that bait a second time! Juan says he has something to work out with Grace. David tells Juan to leave her alone. "You don't know what you're doing," Juan says. David warns Juan that the police are closing in. Juan says he'll resurface when David least expects it.
Grace is grateful to David and "admits" that Juan has called her multiple times, always from a different number (how can she tell, if it's unknown... never mind...) and that's why she didn't want to pick up. He tells her that Juan's a coward and won't come here. With dewy eyes, Grace says, "for the first time in my life, I feel protected." (Maybe she should try a different deodorant.) "I will always protect you and my whole family," he promises. Grace is afraid Juan will do something to David. David says no he won't, and if he calls again, tell me. She SWEARS that she will.

La Piloto #38 4.27.17: In Which Yolanda Sets a Plan in Motion...
• Santamaria is pissed that he has a mole in his battalion and orders Caicedo to watch him closely but don’t reveal that they know about the grenades. Caicedo agrees and asks if he needs anything else. Santamaria sends him away but Yolanda reminds Santamaria that they still need supplies to treat his wound. Caicedo offers to go into town and Santamaria agrees but asks that he keep things quiet because no one in town needs to know about the attack or the intoxication. Caicedo nods and Santamaria then asks him to send over all the squad leaders. Caicedo nods again and leaves. Once alone, Yolanda attends to Santamaria’s wounds with alcohol while they wait.
• The Lucio man in Altamirano call Oscar to let him know the job was a success but Rosalba won’t shut up and keeps insisting that she’s Estela. Oscar asks the man to describe the woman and Oscar realizes the woman they have is Estela. He orders the man to lock Estela up good and watch her until he receives further instructions. The man agrees and Oscar hangs up. Zulima chides he for kidnapping the wrong woman, especially because Yolanda hates Estela, but Oscar reminds her that it’s the only leverage they have at the moment. Zulima then asks if Salvador called to inform them of the Yolanda situation but Oscar tells her they haven’t heard anything yet.

Vino el Amor #135 (Univision 124); Thursday April 27, 2017: Vino el Chantaje (Blackmail)
Repeated scene: The Bodega’s reorganization and new
assignments.
There was a musical montage of what appears to be time
passing. People are working, Carito taking care of Bobby, Tano receiving texts
from Fernanda, Susan and Ramón meeting with David, successes at the SB
Vineyard, David disinterested in the wedding, León making plans, Lil staring at
a photo of Gutierrez, Ramon and Marta walking hand in hand, Susan and Cesar,
and Juan with Perla looking very unhappy.
After the montage is over, the heading is “Months later.”
So we have a time jump here.
