Papa a Toda Madre, Capítulo 62; Friday April 13, 2018; “The Mother and Child Reunion is only a Motion Away”



No I would not give no false hope
On this strange and mournful day
But the mother and child reunion
Is only a motion away
(Paul Simon, "Mother and Child Reunion", 1971)

We begin tonight with Mau and Renée showing Maria to Anifer’s room to watch her child sleeping. She bends down to kiss Anifer on the cheek while she sleeps. Maria wipes her eyes of some tears as she walks out of the room. Maria says she wants to stay there till Ani wakes up, but Mau tells her that it’s best that he talk to Ani first to make sure she doesn’t get scared. After all this time, Ani has thought her mother to be dead. He adds that he has been her father, not biologically, but in the heart.  Maria gets back at him saying that he’s been deceptive as well since he’s NOT the real father.

Mr. Dimples is desperate to steal whatever valuables and hard cash lovely Olivia has. Oli now realizes it ain't no game, although she's been played for a fool.  She cries and he gags her then.  He gets what he can find quick and easy and leaves Oli trussed and tied to the bedpost like the silly goose she is.

Across town, Paula encourages Alejandra to tell it like it is--and was--to Carlos.  "--Don't hold anything back!"  Ale just doesn't want to make a mistake.  (Hey, this is Mama Paula here, Ale--uh, just how many husbands did she mention she had?)

Papa A Toda Madre #61 4.12.18: Back from the Dead and It's Doesn't Feel So Good

Or How To Tell Your Pseudo-Baby Momma That A Stranger Has Her Daughter

At the hospital, Jorge berates Lili for her careless actions, which now include bringing a new life into this world, and ruining her life in the process. Kika doesn’t think it’s the best time to talk about this but Jorge reiterates that it’s the best time. He asks Lili if her mother never taught her about preserving her virginity or anything of the sort but Lili reminds him that she never had a father, neither did her brother, but Jorge tells her that she’s no one to judge. Kika tries to defuse the situation and tells them that they must tell the father of the child, first, and then decide what to do. Jorge looks sick to his stomach but Lili nods.

In Neron’s shop, Pablo talks to his mother to tell her about his plans to go to the US to look for his father. He sends her his love and hangs up as his co-worker teases him. Pablo pays him no mind and then goes to Neron and tells him that his mother sends her thanks for all his help. He then tells that he found a group of Guatemalans online that can help him locate his father in the US. Neron is happy to hear the good news but seems distracted as Pablo keeps asking him what he thinks the best plan of action to find his father is. Neron tells Pablo to give him a minute and goes to his office.

Papá a toda madre Wednesday 4/11/18 Capitulo 60: Mauricio Crosses the Line--OR--Kika to the Rescue

At the "cooperative" meeting, Mauricio tries to explain that they have to think about how exactly to open the cooperative. The answers will come from brainstorming little by little. Mauricio tells them they have to be smart and do things well. Toño blames Mauricio for being the one in a rush and changing plans. Nerón is not happy either. Jorge agrees with Mr. López Garza that "Rome was not built in a day". Toño says they all know that already and also points out the deference and formality on Jorge's part towards Mauricio with Jorge addressing Mauricio as "Ud." and not "tú" when they are all supposed to be equals and Mauricio is no longer his boss. Mauricio tells Jorge not to shout at Jorge because nobody is the boss of anyone else. He finally gets Toño to shake Jorge's hand to restore the solidarity of the group. Nerón is antsy and wants to get home to Flor who is not feeling well. He thinks that she must be pregnant again. Toño tells Jorge and Mauricio that he is basically broke and he needs a job like now. He leaves, too. Mauricio makes a comment about how stressed out Toño is.

Isabel remains undecided and tells Alejandra to lay aside the paperwork while she reconsiders--for Luis's sake.  (I believe).

Carlos is the early bird who catches his worm of a cousin, Alan, in a host of omissions, not the least of which is that he spent the night of the bachelor party sleeping in the same hotel with the hooker that accused him of murdering her friend.  Why did he OMIT that information???? His personal life, sayz Al, is none of his beeswax.  Carlos mentions that his lawyer now, Leo, will be investigating Alan as a major suspect since Al decided to omit this bit of trivial pursuit.  Al swears one thing has nothin' to do with the other and he's got nothing to hide.  "--I hope not!" "--You are going to have to eat those words, you'll see!"

Or Giving Up Your Future for Love

Renee tells Mauricio that she’s not sure she wants to continue with the master’s program because she prefers to stay in Mexico with Anifer and Mauricio. Mauricio is shocked and goes to sit by Renee, who tells him not to make a big deal out of it, but he insists that the price for them being together is too high. He would love to see her every day but he can’t allow her to give up on her dream. Renee argues that a master’s program is too time consuming, and he needs to focus on his new company and Anifer, while she takes care of everything else. Mauricio nods but doesn’t think it’s a good enough reason so Renee reminds him of all the obstacles in her way since she started the master’s program. She makes it clear that her plan is to postpone the program, for a bit, but Mauricio begs her not to do this for him. Renee shakes her head and confesses that this is the first time she’s in love and she’s not willing to give him up. Mauricio smiles wide as Renee explains that he love is a lot more than simple butterflies because she loves him, truly loves him, and doesn’t want to give him up. Mauricio asks for a moment, stands up, and cheers loud enough for the whole cul-de-sac to hear. Renee runs to him and they kiss and hug.

Chapter 25: Priorities

Previously on D.F. Law:
  • Paula talked about how every good lawyer wants to work at Vega & Associates, but Carlos denied that on the grounds of philosophical differences. Paula nonetheless pointed out that it was lawyers from that firm who got him freed, which he agrees with and gives Alejandra credit that she perhaps did not earn. When he kissed Alejandra it was evident that she did not welcome it and wanted him to leave. He finally said he needed to go home and rest to have the energy to start working on his plans and said he would pick Alejandra up in the morning. She declined this offer, saying she needed to get an earlier start. He made a big deal instead of saying he loved her.... more than ever. She went upstairs and Paula turned to Carlos to make sure he understood that he had hurt her daughter badly. She told him he had to respect Alejandra's decision. He didn't understand so she spelled it out that her daughter had a lot of work rebuilding her life after what he had done. He said he had paid for this in many ways. She told him point blank that her priority is her daughter. He asked her to trust him, etc.

Alt Title: Chicken Soup for the BUSTED Soul!

At the Carbajal fortress (that can easily be invaded by a tribble), Renée explains to Noel that she grew up in a house that was her mother’s; and when her mother died, she thought it would be hers, but it turned out that the house is not under her name. When Noel tells her he doesn’t understand anything she is saying, he demands to know who the he** her mother is; so Renée blurts out, “Catalina Sanchez!” After Noel stumbles backwards and remains quiet, Renée questions why he remained quiet and if he knew her mother…
                                                                        Could it be?????
(So Renee, realizing this is going sideways fast, wishes she had brought Wookiee with her and makes small talk: So...you ever know Catalina Sanchez?) Noel tells her that she knows where the door is and not to get close. When Renée persists and asks if he knows Don Noel, Noel ( wonders if he should take out his saber but...) responds that if she doesn’t leave, he will call the police; so Renée apologizes and runs out. After she leaves, Noel uncovers his head and looks as if he saw a ghost. (Maybe the Ghost of Bunny Hopping Past? Wait, what the Dickens am I thinking?

Por Amar Sin Ley, 4/6/18 Chapter 24: Carlos gets--out of jail, a photo op and a champagne lunch

Part 1 of 2
The Trial of the Century is Underway---or rather a hearing to determine whether Carlos has to remain in prison or get out on personal recognizance until the real trial. Suffice it to say that thanks to Leo and Rob's snooping around the hotel and finding the hotel emergency stairs near the room lacked security cameras; Carlos' casual demeanor upon leaving; his upcoming nuptials; Patricia not seeming frightened or concerned when room service arrived, and Juan's dogged determination to provide the toxicology report, Carlos is one step closer to temporary freedom. The toxicology report showed that Patricia, having taken sleeping pills which, Leo tells the judge, mixed with alcohol, could have caused her to choke on her own vomit. Sonia, the spiked-heeled public prosecutor indicates, indignantly, that there was no evidence of vomit anywhere, to which Leo chides her for not doing her homework because there was no pathology report. (CSI: Miami is shocked.) Leo feels triumphant.

She promises to be very mindful though and make sure he is doing what he promised.

Xmas Eve continues . . .

Nerón is entertaining Roberto this Xmas Eve. Roberto has come with gifts for everybody. Nerón leaves Flor and Robert alone to go get his gifts. They chit chat about about Nerón telling Robert to get a wife and maybe one with a child. Robert quietly expresses concern for Nerón’s health and asks Flor about it since Nerón seems to be talking about it a lot in the last couple of days. Flor looks concerned.

At Toño's parents, Christmas Eve is not too merry. Verónica reminds Toño that the only reason she is there is because of the kids and that the two of them are still separated. He gets sarcastic about what a sacrifice it must be for her to have to deal with all of his relatives. She makes it clear that is not the problem. Her problem is putting on a happy face so she does not ruin the children’s Xmas especially Neto's. They get into an argument about Neto and his medicine for his supposed ADD. Toño cannot understand how a doctor can see him only once and put him on medicine. Verónica explains that the doctor is an expert. It seems to her that Toño doesn’t take anything seriously. Toño argues it is not that. It is only that he has been on the internet . . . She scoffs at that. According to what he has read, the experts say that taking medication is the last option that should be considered. Before going with medication, you have to take a look at what is happening in the child's home, his environment.

Or Everyone Gets Hit In the Face

Mauricio thinks Fabian is sick because he used a child to further his plans. Fabian thought Mauricio hated kids, so it shouldn’t have been a big deal. Mauricio wants to know if Maria is actually dead or if Fabian made that up to, but Fabian confirms she’s dead and buried. Mauricio doesn’t believe him, as he’s lied to much and went alone with Juan Perez to Maria’s burial, but Fabian confirms the body he claimed was Maria’s and he only did it because Mauricio won’t let sleeping dogs lie. Mauricio can’t believe Fabian would’ve left Maria unclaimed, like a dog, but Fabian retorts that Mauricio didn’t even go to his own father’s burial, so he shouldn’t talk. Mauricio claims that that is another story and thinks Noel would die again if he saw what his son has become.

Renee is looking at the photo she found of all the old Logatoys employees when Rafael walks in and asks if she’s going to keep it. Renee is going to ask Mauricio but she’s sure he will let her keep it as a reminder of the way things were. After a moment, Renee realizes that her mother is looking at someone else, not the camera, and Rafael points at Noel and assumes she’s looking at this man. Renee doesn’t know him, only of him, and remembers when Angel told her that Catalina was very secretive, and he wished she loved him but never did. Renee suddenly gasps and tells Rafael that she knows who her father may be, but she can’t confirm that he is because she has no proof. Rafael offers to help, as the sooner she gets her house, the sooner they can buy it, but Renee is wary as the legal battle for her house may be tougher than she thought. She also reveals that she may have a brother and wonders how she will find out the truth. Rafael thinks her talk with Angel went well, so she could talk to her brother too, but Renee wonders if her search is worth it because she may find out things she never expected or wanted to find out.

Por Amar Sin Ley, 3/27/18 Chapter 16: Of Trials, Tribulations and Preparations

It is just another glorious and victorious day in court for our accomplished attorneys.

Victoria wins her case against the disingenuous, dastardly Dario when Rocio's housekeeper claims she saw Ro with a black eye.  Dario defames his ownse'f when he admits he went to anger management therapy.  (Viewerville's take is maybe a few therapists need to be held responsible for declaring people cured when they're anything but--however that's a topic for another day.)  Vicki uses a declaration of bruises and fear from Ro's dinner guest and a passionate plea that somebody has to speak for her dead friend in winning her case against Ro's rotten-to-the-core killer spouse.  Oh, and los abuelos get custody of the kids.

Papa a Toda Madre #49 3.27.18: Coming Together and Falling Apart

Or You Never Know What You Have Until You're Losing it

At Jorge’s, Kika goes around the room and asks all his children if anyone told him about her visit the other day. They all shake their heads and Kika realizes that, unless Jorge has superpowers, he has hidden a camera in his house to keep an eye on them. She smiles and tells the children that it’s time to find out where it’s hidden.

At Neron’s shop, Pablo tells Neron that he was fired from his job at the school, but he went back to thank the director, who gave him some money to help him out, and has decided to leave for the border immediately. Neron warns him to be cautious but Pablo is decided to leave at once. Neron then asks if he is going to leave Lili and Pablo confirms he will because he came to Mexico to cross the border, so he can find his father, and nothing else. Just then, Roberto, Flor’s potential future suitor, comes in and chides Neron for selling him tires that are completely deflated. Neron assures him that he will fix that right away and sends Pablo to do it as he asks Roberto to sit down so they can talk some more. To himself, Neron assures himself that Pablo is the best man to replace him.

Papá a Toda Madre, Episode 48, 3/26/2018: Children Say the Darndest Things OR A Golden Egg for R&R


Fabián asks Mau if he is feeling well; so Mau responds that it must be because he is excited about starting a new phase in the factory…with him. Mau then asks Fabián if he remembers how long they have been friends, so Fabián laughs and responds “All our lives; ever since we were born!” Mau replies, “Exactly. In fact, until Anifer showed up, I considered you my only living family.” When Fabián wonders why Mau is so nostalgic and asking so many questions, Mau responds that he doesn’t know; he has just realized that he trusts Fabián with so many favors…sometimes he thinks he takes advantage of him…like asking him to take care of Maria’s burial.  (A tiny little tinker bell jingles in Fabián’s serpentine brain.) After Mau thanks him, Fabián assures him that there is no need to thank him…he has always done it with all his heart (as he concentrates really hard to not allow his tail to rattle).
At Veronica’s house, Toño is cleaning the table when Veronica arrives and asks if the kids have gone to bed. When Toño responds that it has been quite some time since they went to bed, Veronica comments that she hardly saw them in the morning; so she is going to go peek in on them. Toño tells her not to wake them because it took him quite some time to get them to sleep; furthermore, he wants her to sit down so they can talk about that infamous “break” she wants to take. Veronica points out that he was the first to mention taking a break…and right now she is exhausted and isn’t up to anything, but she does want to tell him that she will be leaving on a job-related trip during the week-end…and she wants HER kids to go with her. As Toño emphasizes that they haven’t even started the “break’ and she is already saying “HER kids,” (Clue A, Tono) Tania listens through the door as they continue to argue, then walks back to her bed as Veronica tells Toño that she does not want to continue arguing and walks away.

Weekend Discussion, 3/23/18: Por Amar Sin Ley or L.A. Law's Twin


Por Amar Sin Ley or L.A. Law's Twin

Back when we were playing Televisa Remake games (click the label “weekend” below for list) we didn't think of L.A. Law as a possibility. Obviously someone did because this series certainly feels like it. Most of the emsemble-cast characters have counterparts, there is a parade of clients some of whom are symbolic of social issues, and the relationships between the lawyers and their love interests will be the most active element of the series. Let's dive in:

Managing Partners

Alonso Vega and Leland MacKenzie are both mature men who are paternal figures. Both are law professors, virtually live at the firm, and take a personal interest in the lives of their staff.

Anita here. I will be your occasional Court Reporter (and I get the run of the office, too). To start you off, here is a reprise of each attorney's specialty along with his, her, or their cases.
Part 3 is now up.

Vega & Associates, Mexico City’s Most Prestigious Law Firm

Vega invites you to follow them on CaraLibro, or better still, follow their cases (and personal lives), as featured on CarayCaray at 10 pm EDT.

Our Mission: “We will take on anything life can throw at you, as long as you are not guilty, not an abuser, nor a defrauder. In the event we decide you are guilty, an abuser or a defrauder, we will throw the book at you*.”
(*Err, disculpe, we will ask the judge to throw the book at you.)

Attorneys, clients and cases so far:
The Opposition
Carlos – first – mainly criminal cases
Saúl Morales (David Ostrosky) is a prestigious businessman who comes to Carlos for help with a sexual harassment accusation. Carlos can’t continue with his case after he’s jailed for suspicion of murder and Sr. Morales doesn’t want Alan to take over. He takes his case to Vega, but Leo won’t take it because of contradictions in his statements and decides Morales is lying. Morales threatens Leo and all of Vega.

Papa A Toda Madre #47: If You Can't Trust Your "Bro", Who Can You Trust?

Or A Snake in the Grass is Revealed

Rodrigo walks into Neron’s shop and demands to know why Pablo hid the fact that he was in Mexico illegally. Pablo looks worried and very contrite and Neron tries to argue that Pablo is a very good man, but Rodrigo laughs at the fact that they tried to trick him earlier, by acting like a mute and then pretending the funny words Pablo used were form another part of Mexico. Either way, he warns them that Jorge is looking into the deportation process for illegals and he assumed it was because of him. Neron begs Rodrigo to reconsider, and not arrest Pablo, but Rodrigo makes it clear that he’s not there to arrest him because he’s a hard-working man, not a criminal. Neron and Pablo thank him and they all shake hands with a smile. Rodrigo leaves them with one final warning: if someone else reports Pablo, there will be nothing he could do for him them. Pablo and Neron look even more worried.

Falcón thinks that his disappearance will just cause more suspicions and people will think he is a fraud. Fabián informs him that he will take care of things from here on out even Mauricio's penchant for investigating. Falcón was right about one thing though: he is an enormous old fraud.

Or When Plots Twists Aren't Really Plot "Twists"

Tono confesses that Yolanda kissed him on the lips, much to Veronica’s surprise, and Veronica can’t believe she did such a thing. Tono tries to defend himself, saying that the kiss was small and meant nothing, but Veronica is furious. She can’t believe he kissed someone else and talks about honesty. Tono shrugs and reiterates that it’s not his fault, as Yolanda fell in love with him (because he’s so full of charm) but Veronica doesn’t want to see him right now or be touched by him. She demands he leave her alone and Tono runs upstairs, after chiding himself for confessing anything in the first place.

Flor cleans the house and calls Neron to tell him her plans with Renee that night and the fact that Rafael ill take care of Milady. Neron prefers to close the shop and go take care of Milady but Flor asks him not to worry. She does notice that he sounds tired but Neron tells her it’s nothing and asks her to come home early.

Victoria gives her official statement to the equivalent of the Prosecuting Attorney's Office.  She  assures her that many times she told her dead friend, Rocio, to tell the police about her husband's physical and mental abuse.  That's why she filed an anonymous complaint against Dario (Mario?).  She warned to be careful and that he'd end up killing her some day and now.....well Vicki's determined it was that brute--who has suddenly, conveniently gone missing--and she's going to put him behind bars if it's the last thing she ever does!

Or Who's Playing Who?

Mauricio and Renee run over to pick up Anifer from Veronica but Anifer declares that she no longer loves him and it’s his fault her mother died. Renee tells her that Mauricio is not at fault but Anifer states that they are both liars and she doesn’t want to go home with them because they are lies. She prefers to go to Neron’s house and Neron and Flor agree but Mauricio reminds her that he just wanted to protect her and begs her to come back home. Renee agrees and begs Anifer as well, but Jorge suggests they drag her back home, but Veronica shakes her head. Tono agrees with Jorge but Neron can’t as he would leave these things to Carmelita and now Flor. Jorge suggests Mauricio give Anifer a good whipping, as discipline is necessary, but Veronica disagrees. Tono wonders why all the lies in the first place and Jorge reiterates that they punish Anifer for escaping. Flor shuts everyone up then and tells Anifer that she can stay with them, at least for today, since it’s been a rough day. Neron agrees and Anifer looks at Mauricio, quietly, extremely disappointed in his actions.

In her suite, Kika tells Charytin about the fact that her revenge is finally complete, but she feels that she paid too high a price because she would feel guilty if something happens to Anifer. Charytin suggests she move on and come back to Miami but Kika must find out if Anifer is safe.

Yesterday’s episode ended with Kika’s monetary investment in Logatoys. It must have been a very large investment as she says “You are not going to get rid of me that easily.” Mau says to her, “Look Kika, I don’t want to make you angry, but what are you doing here?” Kika says, “I want to invest in your business. Just because we ended our relationship, doesn’t mean we can’t be business partners.” Jorge says that the money is already in the bank, but Mau says he doesn’t want it and says goodbye to Kika. He says he feels like a freed condor flying through the air. Kika says the money is there, it was automatically deposited and now she is a full fledged partner with Logatoys. Falcon wants to extend his hand and say “welcome to Logatoys”, but Mau pushes him back. Jorge wants to know if they are still a couple. Mau says NO and Kika says YES.

Or Sometimes Look a Gift Horse in the Mouth

Mauricio tells Kika that it’s best they break off everything between them because he’s not sure of what he feels and confesses that he feels something but for Renee. Kika can’t believe he’s trying to breakup with her, after all she’s done for him, but Mauricio reminds her that he rejected her investment at Logatoys and she proposed to him and he only accepted out of respect. Kika is shocked at his decision but Mauricio is done talking and tells her he has to go and get Anifer. Kika is left screaming and talking to herself that he can’t trade her for a maid. She then runs after him as everyone in the hospital stares.

Later, Mauricio wheels Anifer inside their home and asks her to be careful lest she break another leg. He then tells Anifer that he has to go into Logatoys and Renee offers to take care of Anifer in the meantime. She then states that she will fine a place nearby when she moves and Anifer wonders when she decided this. Mauricio explains that Renee thought of leaving but things changed and no she’s not leaving and he’s not getting married and isn’t Kiki’s boyfriend either. Anifer is ecstatic, as she hated the way Kika grabbed her cheek, and Renee tells Mauricio she will talk to him later and goes to the kitchen. Inside the kitchen, Renee jumps up and down at all the excellent news.

Papá a toda madre Wednesday 3/7/18 Capítulo 36: The Cheese Stands Alone--OR--Mauricio Comes to His Senses

We catch up with Nerón who is having a hard time getting Milady to go to sleep. He says she doesn’t know him anymore. Flor tells him he should just go to sleep himself or he will not have slept in 24 hours. In his sweaty sweats, Nerón is concerned that they haven’t had any sex in a while. She is clearly not in the mood. He keeps on pushing the issue because he says he is always ready. She finally tells him she has an issue with him being all sweaty from the gym and stinky. She tells him to go take a shower. She will make him some food. He ends up sniffing his own armpit and is taken aback by the stench.

At Jorge’s, the family has arrived at home from the Pubic Ministry/Police Station. It is silent until Jorge tells Valentina and Lili to go make something to eat. Samuel is told to go up to his room and to do his homework so as not to fall behind. Jorge sits down at the head of the table. Only Baldo is left. He wants to know if Jorge is going to talk to him. Baldo says he just wanted to get sent back to Tijuana. Since he is getting the cold treatment from Jorge, he decides to go to his room and Jorge can let him know when it is time to eat. Jorge speaks up and tells Baldo if he pulls another stupid stunt like he did today he will be sending him to a military boarding school. Baldo asks him why he doesn’t just send him to juvenile court whenever he feels like it. He goes to his room.

Por Amar Sin Ley, 3/6/18 Chapter 2: I Accuse, or, Irreconcilable Differences



A car full of detectives have come to the church to announce that Carlos is being detained for questioning for the murder of Patricia The Hooker.  The cops won't wait for the ceremony to end or discuss the situation outside the building with the bride's attorney papa.  Alejandra interrogates Carlos immediately as it is evident he knows who she was.  He simply says it's a mistake and he'll clear it up as the cops drag him unceremoniously from the church with the entire group of legal eagles trailing concernedly behind.

Ali decides she's going to the police station to handle things herself, although Mama has asked her to stay.  "--Carlos has plenty of lawyers helping him already!"   (That's an understatement.)

Papa a Toda Madre #35 3.6.18: You Can Call Me "Papa"

Or Mauricio is Finally a "Father"

In Miami, Kika has decided the best way to keep Mauricio at her side (possibly) is with an ultimatum: stay in Miami with her or risk losing her large investment for Logatoys; the choice is his. Mauricio looks shocked.


At Neron’s, Flor is also shocked to see Neron has dyed his hair jet black. Neron smiles wide and Flor looks slightly happy to see this change.



She warns him not to get any on his skin because it won’t come off and Neron nods. He then asks her to make him breakfast because he must go see about a gym membership so that he can get back in tip top shape. Flor can’t hide her slightly amused, but loving smile, as she goes to the kitchen.

Chapter 1: Marriage is Cursed

Ricardo Bustamante stepped off the elevator and entered the offices of Vega and Associates.

He greeted the office staff and was met by his secretary, a mature woman named Carmen who asked if he wished to go over the agenda. He answered in the affirmative. They began discussing this on the way to his office only to encounter a couple having an argument that ended with the woman throwing a glass of water in the man's face. Victoria Escalante, who seemed to be the woman's lawyer, went over to stop this situation from getting any worse.
