Amar a Muerte, 02/13/19, Episode 70: Guille's Baby Anvil Lands, Big Ones Jockey for Position



At Barb’s house, Cami is on the phone with Mercedes who tells him, in a panic, about Alacrán and his goons coming in and ransacking the place. Cami tries to calm her down and tells her that the important thing is that nothing happened to her. After he ends the call, Cami turns to LCJ and tells him that it is confirmed…they destroyed everything. After LCJ apologizes, Cami assures him that they are in this together. LCJ is leery about Beltrino and Barb, so he tells Cami that he will leave first and Cami can follow afterwards. Barb is happy that they are leaving so her things won’t get destroyed too, but Beltrino insists that this is the safest place on the planet for LCJ. He tells Barb to let LCJ stay until the Doc can figure out a way to help them so he can get his body back. When Cami comments that he cannot help Beltrino with that, Beltrino suggests that Barb summon Death so she can speak to the Doc.

Cami stresses that he is a scientist and abides by certain rules. Beltrino points out that there are no rules in this area…Cami should have figured that out already. He continues that Cami is the person who is most versed in that room, maybe he can interpret what Death tells Barb…they can ask Death how they can resolve this. Cami questions if he can really talk to Death, so Beltrino clarifies that Barb will be the one to talk to Death. Beltrino sits Barb down and orders her to summon Death…maybe they can ask their questions through her. As Cami starts to insist that he cannot help them, they all feel a presence…and Death Chick looks Cami straight in the eye and doesn’t look happy.

Mi Marido Tiene Más Familia, Capítulo 106, Tuesday, February 12, 2019; Caught Red Handed or The Truth is Revealed!


We begin with Neto on the phone with Arturo who has just been able to go inside Neto’s Miami home. He tells Neto that the place has been emptied out, as if burglars came in and took everything. There are few things left, some clothes, and other miscellaneous items, but mostly everything is gone, even the computers and the children’s laptops. While he is on the phone, Guido rudely interrupts and says, “I want to see you now!”  He asks Guido to please wait because he is on an important phone call regarding the property he left behind in Miami. Guido agrees to wait. Guido is not happy about Neto’s report that the mescal is watered down. Artura says he will send whatever is left to him. Then Neto tells his children the bad news.

At the burned children’s foundation, Linda recalls how Clarisa told her that she needs to speak with Axel about something and it should be immediately. Linda puts the thoughts out of her mind as she sees Maria sitting by herself. She goes over to offer Maria some lunch and tells her even though she isn’t that good in the kitchen, she made some great peanut butter sandwiches.  But Maria says she isn’t hungry. “Not even for a small bite?” says Linda. As Maria pulls out the apple and reaches for the sandwich, Linda notices a burn mark on Maria. Maria goes to cover and hide it.

Amar a Muerte, 2/12/2019, Episode 69: Body and Soul Reunion



At Barb’s house, LCJ (León/Chino/Jacobo) and Beltrino sit down for a chat as they stare at each other. LCJ assimilates the idea that he is looking at the actual El Chino Valdez. Beltrino declares that that is his face and body; he’s been looking for him for quite some time. Since Beltrino saw him briefly at the hospital; he has not been able to sleep peacefully. LCJ realizes that is why Beltrino saved him from the narcos. Beltrino agrees; he wouldn’t want his body to leave filled with bullets. When LCJ scoffs that Beltrino is the real one they should be looking for, Beltrino tells him not to believe everything they say about him. LCJ chides Beltrino; he has no idea of the problems he has had because of him. Beltrino retorts that that was not his intention. LCJ then asks about the body that El Chino is occupying; so Beltrino tells him about being a university professor who has a family, even a dog…but a boring life; the professor died in an accident. Beltrino can’t get accustomed to talking to his body, his face that he grew up looking at every day; he grabs LCJ’s arm and demands that he give him his body! (Oh, sure, here ya go, but only if I can have my body back too!) After LCJ pulls his arm away, they both sit back to relax…NOT! Just then, Death Chick makes a bell ring (Round 1?), but as Beltrino looks, he sees no one. As they both sit up to take a good look, a black butterfly flies away…and Death Chick smiles. (There's a girl like Death Chick in every class. What she doesn't have in looks she makes up for in 'Fun Factor'.)

Amar a Muerte, 2/11/19, Episode 68: Beltran Finds His Body, But Someone Else is Using It.

Some nasty little gremlin messed up my DVR—it didn’t record the episode, so I can’t go back and see what I missed. I hope someone can help fill in the gaps or correct what I got wrong. Here goes—

* In the underground garage of the hospital, Beltrino at the wheel, orders a very weakened LCJ (León/Chino/Jacobo/Jake) into the car. LCJ hesitates momentarily. It could be someone who is still out to kill him. He’s persuaded and just then gunfire erupts everywhere. They head for the exit. Meanwhile Luci is still trying to get in to see Jacobo.  Finally, the police roll into the garage. More gunfire. El Alacrán and Gancho are in the midst of the shoot-out. Just as the Patio is holding its collective breath for Beltie and Jake to get away a car blocks them. SH*T, it’s Fabian, pointing a gun at Jake through the window. The next thing I know, he’s in the back seat still pointing a gun at Jake. He makes Beltie give him his gun and there he sits, a two-fisted gunslinger ordering them to take off. Beltie floors it.

Mi marido tiene más familia Monday 2/11/19 Capitulo 105 Settling In

Neto notices the expressions on Imelda's and Audifaz's faces and asks if there is something wrong with what he said.  Audi says no and Imelda says that they never heard that name before. Neto explains it is from  Nahuatl and means heart. His mother was born here is Oaxaca so this is the country of his mother and of his ancestors. He feels as if destiny has brought him back here  to start over with his children. Neto asks them again to reconsider his request.  Suddenly, Audi says he thinks they might be able to come to an agreement. Another rent coming in is never a bad thing. Imelda  smiles and says they will discuss it and get back to him.

Still at Susana's, Yolo makes herself at home next to the pool with a glass of orange juice. Grecia recognizes her bathing suit on Yolo. Yolo had nothing and wanted to go out by the pool.  Grecia tells her it would have been better if she had asked.  If she had asked her to loan her a swimsuit and sunglasses, she would have said yes.  Yolo  knows it is a loan and she will return Grecia's things later.  Grecia tries to maintain her patience. As Grecia turns to get some sunscreen, Grecia looks at her  back and sees what she thinks are stretch marks and remarks how ugly they are. Grecia is suddenly back in her head upset and crying with blood all over her repeating "I killed him." Grecia calms herself down and she tells Yolo they are not stretch marks but even it they were it would be okay because they would be something natural. Yolo remarks not on her and calls Grecia "Greasy".

Parte 1~~

  • Beltran, aka Belchin', aka El Chino actualmente, has just seen the news bit about Jacobo Reyes, Heroe Del Momento--and co-transmigrante, León Carvajal--who is now recovering at Northway Hospital; he flies out of Javier's hospital room to seek the man who is wearing his body.  Alicia and Jav are left eating his dust as usual.
  • At the same time, Johny Corona--everyone's crown of thorns in their backside--is otherwise occupied nosing around Susana's computer and trying to see if her latest composition is possibly on her screen which she's dutifully locked.  The paper's editor walks up to see if he can be of assistance.  With the ever-present contrived Corona constipational smile of obligation, Johny pretends to take Mr. Editor into his confidence.  There's some suspected extortion and they--the police--need to check Susana's computer today.  "--Keep her out of the office today while we check her computer.  Don't let on to A.N.Y.B.O.D.Y."  
  • Back on campus, Sergio tries talking to Lucho about Valentina's sad situation.  Lucho is sick to death discussing Val and her idiosyncrasies any longer.  Sergio tells him to get with it and with the times.  He should feel some sympathy for her since her gay love life has turned tragic owing to the fact that Juliana is leaving the country with Mama shortly.  (Yawn.  FF>>FF>>)

She and her brothers are citizens of the USA but are minors so they had to come with her father and ended up in this place. She looks around in disgust.  Crisanta can understand her being angry but Oaxaca is a beautiful place. Santi tells his sister "Yolo" that Crisanta is right.

Grecia tries to put on her counseling hat with Neto's  kids saying that they went through an intense experience and that she understands how they are feeling. Yolo doesn't think she understands how SHE feels.  Yolo explains how they lost all of their stuff, their home,  their friends, their whole life.  Crisanta asks if their mother came with them, too. Santi is about to answer but Andi cuts him off saying that they do not know where their mother is. She left them a long time ago. Yolo makes it clear again that she hates being there.  Grecia tells her you can always start over again.

    Previously: Lupita was talking to Juls about the man she saw at Vale’s house and telling Juls he was not her father. (Your Father has gone back to his home planet, Juls)

    At Silvina’s house, Lupita continues to try to convince Juls that the man she saw at Vale’s house is not her father. The man has her father’s body, but he’s not El Chino; his name is Jacobo Reyes. When Juls asks how she knows, Lupita confides that LCJ (León/Chino/Jacobo) told her when he went to drop off some things that Sra. Silvina sent them when they first moved there. They were both surprised. Juls doesn’t think that what Lupita is saying makes sense. Lupita agrees, but he finally convinced her that he wasn’t El Chino. Juls asks who he is if he isn’t El Chino. Lupita responds that all she knows is that his name is Jacobo Reyes. He treated her well and she wants to keep her promise that she won’t reveal that he isn’t El Chino. Juls reminds Lupita that El Chino is a sicario; he can make up whatever story to get into that house and do whatever they asked him to do. When Juls insists that he is lying, Lupita pleads with her not to tell Vale that her chauffeur lives in El Chino’s body. Juls definitely won’t tell Vale…because Vale will think she is crazy.

    Inside the house, Armenta goes to Vale and demands to know who called her. Vale cries as she replies that it was just a friend. When Armenta asks about her siblings, Vale tells him she doesn’t know where they are and Lucía adds that they don’t live there…so they won’t be coming. Chulo thinks the women are trying to pull one over on them and are making them waste a lot of time; the cops are sure to be arriving soon. Another goon approaches with all that he has found in the house, so Servando tells him to lay it on the table and tells Chulo to relax because the party is just starting. Servando shouts out for more tequila. Oh Armie, you saw that one too where they poured tequila on bullet holes?

    At Silvina’s house. Lupita sees that Juls is upset and asks what is going on, but Juls just runs off and tells her she will be back soon.

    Outside the Carvajal house, LCJ lurks as he finds Tiberio crouched and hiding. Tiberio pleads with LCJ not to kill him, so LCJ assures him that he came to help them. LCJ then asks what is going on inside and how many men there are. Tiberio replies that that he doesn’t know what’s going on, but there are 4-5 men inside and there are more outside. After LCJ takes his key to the service entrance, Tiberio tells him to be careful and hides again.  

    In San Antonio, Mariela wonders how much longer Fabián will continue with his obsession over El Chino…the man didn’t just kill his father, El Chino is also ruining his life. Fabián feels bad because he knows he could have done something in Mexico, but she pressured him until he came back. Mariela points out that the man escaped and there is nothing Fabián can do; he should think of his son. Fabián is definitely thinking of his son, what will his son think of him when he grows up and finds out that his father did nothing to catch his grandfather’s murderer. Mariela insists that is what happened and there is nothing he can do. Fabián, however, is determined to return to Mexico.

    Since I've been a little under the weather, this is a little late. At least this was a Johny-free episode.

    Jacobo and Camilo had a heated discussion in which Cam tried to tell Jake that he should tell Lucia the truth. He said he couldn't because it was so unbelievable and besides it would blow his entire plan. He would lose everything, including his children. Camilo suggested he rest on it, but he replied he couldn't. He needed to talk to Lupita.

    Neto and Grecia argue back and forth about whose red snapper is it.  SHE needs it for something very important. HE needs it for a family tradition. She asks the vendor who got here first. He wasn't watching. Grecia tells Neto the snapper saw.  Neto hates to be the one to tell her that the  snapper is dead and isn't seeing anything.  Next she says that the snapper saw them both and has decided it wanted to go with her.  Neto, always a step behind in this argument,  says the snapper saw him first and wants to go with him. The vendor suggests filleting another fish.  No way, they both want THAT one.  Grecia is going to  treat the fish affectionately and starts to pet it.  Neto flings  her hand off the fish and starts to pet it himself. Grecia launches into the topic of there not being enough gentlemen these days. How can someone as big as he is,  act like that with such a small woman as herself?  As he towers over her, he insists he is a gentleman and that he cannot help it that she is such a short thing.  Grecia drags over a box and gets eye to eye with him.  Neto accuses her of cheating. She tells him that since he is gentleman, she will be taking the fish and preparing it as deliciously as possible.  She hands the snapper to the vendor to bag. She tells Neto goodbye and climbs down from the box.  Neto thinks this is ridiculous fighting over a fish.  Grecia tells him there is a first time for everything.  The  vendor puts the fish in a plastic bag and hands it to Grecia. She tells Neto "See you never!"  He tells her the same.

    TELEMUNDO Y MÁS (#1): Jugar con Fuego, Betty en NY, El Barón, y más: Week of February 4, 2019

    Welcome to Page #1 (Monday edition) of the Telemundo y Más page, issued twice a week: Mondays and Thursdays at 8:00 PM.

    Here are the current evening telenovelas (all times are Eastern Standard Time):

    • 9-11PM—Jugar con Fuego**
    • 9-10PM—Betty en NY (begins Wed., Feb. 6)**
    • 10-11PM—El Barón**

    Because the State of the Union speech has been rescheduled for 9 pm on Feb. 5, Jugar con Fuego will end with a two-hour segment on Monday, Feb. 4. El Barón will therefore not be seen on Monday but will appear as usual at 10 pm on all other days. Betty en NY, a new novela based on the very popular Colombian novela Yo soy Betty la fea and the more recent Mexican version, La fea más bella, begins in the 9 pm time slot starting on Wednesday.

     According to Wikipedia, "[Betty en NY] revolves around Beatriz Aurora Rincón Lozano, an intelligent and capable young Mexican woman who lives in New York City who goes after her dreams, overcoming prejudices in a world where image is everything. After suffering six months of rejection in all jobs that she applies due to her lack of physical attractiveness, Betty decides to accept a job far below her abilities. Thus, after entering the sophisticated fashion company V&M Fashion, she becomes the personal secretary of the company president. Although she is ridiculed and humiliated on a daily basis for being completely lacking in style, Betty is more than willing to not be defeated in this ruthless war of appearances."  Elyfer Torres will star as Betty, along with Erick Elías, Aarón Días, and Sabrina Seara.

Pancho  will make sure that they fill their stomachs in the bakery.  The other kids come running  into the bakery upsetting a glass of milk that ends up all over Yolo. Julio crushes Andi's glasses when they fall off.  Yolo overreacts. Temo tells her it was all an accident. The kids didn't do it on purpose. Pancho says he can get it all fixed.

    Amar a Muerte, 1/31/2019, Episode 62: Misinterpretations and Complications


     
    Vale arrives at the university and confronts Lucho; she hopes he’s happy that everyone is making fun of her. Lucho retorts that she converted herself into a lesbian; he warns her to take her crap elsewhere and not to even dare show up to any of their parties or events with Juls…Vale shouldn’t go at all.  (And especially don't mention that she was tired of trying to help him solve his 'problem'.  Tee Hee.)

    At Silvina’s house, Lupita again asks Juls what’s wrong; she seems even more down than the night before. When she insists, Juls tells her to stop…she just doesn’t want to talk. Lupita finally guesses right that Juls had a fight with Vale. Lupita thinks that Vale is beautiful and nice, but she pertains to a different world…they are like water and oil. Juls gets upset and asks, “Who asked for your opinion?” Juls doesn’t get into her business with Pancho; and she doesn’t make comments because Lupita takes advantage of him since he’s got a thing for her. Lupita denies it, but Juls insists that Lupita calls him whenever she wants something. Lupita scolds Juls and tells her not to be rude; so Juls snaps at her not to get into her business.  (Mom, do think maybe any of this mess might be your fault?)

    Amar a Muerte, 1/30/2019, Episode 61: 'When in the Course of Human Laments'..or If they will do it FOR you, they will do it TO you.



    Guille arrives at Renata’s place with luggage in tow. When he asks if he can stay there because he had a fight with Eva, Renata says, “Of course” and asks if it was serious. Guille responds that he has decided to cut all economic ties with his family and start from ZERO. He asks for Renata’s opinion, so she tells him that is very serious. Guille doesn’t think so since he had been considering it for quite some time. When he tells her that he did consider going to a hotel (you left out that you burned your credit cards, Guille), Renata tells him she’d kill him if he did that.

    Amar a Muerte, 1/29/2019, Episode 60: Pictures Don't Lie

    Alt Title: When Johny Comes Stomping In...and Boo-Hoos




    Lucho goes crying to Eva that Vale has been acting strange lately and she broke up with him for no reason. He suspected she was cheating on him, but never suspected it would be with a woman. As Eva shakes her head in disbelief, Lucho continues that he has never liked Juliana…she took advantage of Vale when she was the most depressed because of her father’s death. After he guarantees that Vale is no lesbian, Lucho tells Eva that she’d better get Vale away from Juls because if it ever gets out, the sh*t will hit the fan. He continues to rant, but Eva stops him and tells him she will take care of it and talk to Vale…she is used to cleaning up after her family’s messes. Yeah given the barnyard which is your secret life, sister. Eva thanks Lucho for telling her and is sure it won’t get any further; Lucho definitely doesn’t want to tell anyone else. Lucho, good work, your next assignment if you choose to take it...This is a picture of one Alacrán.....Mission Impossible music

    Amar a Muerte, 1/28/19, Episode 59: The Birds are Coming Home to Roost

    Some scenes have been combined.
    * Lucho watches Vale and Juls in a loving embrace which is leading to more intimacy. His buddy Sergio gets an eyeful, too. Vale stops when she hears the doorbell. Thinking it’s Alirio, she opens it up to a raging Lucho. He pushes his way in and gets physically aggressive. Sergio stops him from doing something stupid. Lucho swears to Vale this isn’t going to stay like this. Juls comforts Vale after he leaves. Lucho returns to the car. He’s so angry he’s crying onto the hood of his car. Sergio adds to his state of mind by musing over the reaction of the kids at the university when it gets around. Lucho grabs him. Sergio is not to say a single word to anyone about this. Vale tells Juls Lucho has always been violent and she’s sorry she’s dragged Juls into this situation.
    * Luci has seen the zoo of origami birds (and probably dragons and dinosaurs) in her room and starts yelling for Silvina. She’s in a panic. LCJ/Jake watches quietly downstairs surreptitiously out of sight. Silvina walks into the bird zoo. Only León did them. Luci wants to know who got in her room. Since Eva moved in, she’s kept the room locked. Poor Silvina. She realizes she’s in the frying pan since she’s the only one with a set of keys. (But what about Fab?) Luci is convinced someone is gaslighting her. Silvina thinks it might be León’s spirit trying to tell her something. She thinks that’s idiotic. These things are real.

    • Jacobo, aka León Carvajal, has given Luscious Lucia an ultimatum:  --You have forty-eight hours and either you accept my proposal and we get married or it will be obvious to me that your answer is 'No, you're not Johny Corona.' "  --Initially, some five to ten minutes earlier, Jacobo's proposal of marriage had left Lucia speechless.  Her mind was whirring.  She was apparently dumbfounded.  Jake was almost, dare I say, frantic in his appeal.  "--Look at me!  Am I not the most important thing in your life?"  "--Yes!  You are my reality!"  She told him she simply could not.  "--Is it money then? You have money.  So just pick up and go!" "--Of course not!  It's more complex than that! There's too much at stake right now.  I cannot just leave my life as if it were nothing!"

When he thinks about himself, he gets agitated and tells himself that he needs to remember everything so he can help Dani.   There is a knock at his door. It is Susana. She wants him to know that she and Pancho are there for him and for Dani.  He thanks her for all she has done for him and for finding him Grecia.  He also finds out that Grecia will be able to help out Dani, too.   He hopes so because Dani has fallen apart.

    At Susana's, Grecia talks with Crisanta about the funeral being so very emotional.  Crisanta says  she would have liked to have gone but she didn't want to deal with Imelda. In spite of all she has been through with the Córcega's, she knows they are going through a terrible time.  She would like to be there to support them but it would never work out. Grecia says Dani does have a lot of support with her sisters, her mother and Gabriel's grandfather Massimo. "Máximo?" asks Crisanta. Grecia clarifies that it is Massimo because he is Italian. Crisanta asks Grecia if she is sure. Yes, she is. Crisanta wonders if he could be her Massimo.

    Another Alt Title: The DoorMAT Stings the Scorpion Queen...and He Doesn't Even Know It!

    Previously: Beltrino was on his way back to the hospital where he left Valerio’s daughter.

    Beltrino arrives at the hospital and asks for the woman he brought in. When he goes to her room, V’s daughter is conscious and stable; so Beltrino approaches. She tries to call for help, but Beltrino tells her not to yell out and tells her to listen up so it can be clear…”I didn’t kill your father; he died performing a strange ritual. You are here because of your own doing; you wanted to take the gun and it went off. It was an accident of the most dangerous kind; you could have left you child. This is what we’re going to do. (He hands her an envelope of money). This is for you; it’s enough to pay for your treatment and your son’s education. And you also won’t look for me again and you  don’t know anything about me. Be very grateful that in this life, I have a good attitude because, if not, you wouldn’t be looking at me.”

    In her bedroom, Vale talks to Juls on the phone. She is panicking because there have been so many murders close to her family. Juls assures her that nothing will happen since there is so much security at her house. When Vale tells Juls about Lucho making a scene and accusing her of having something with the chauffeur, Juls laughs and wonders how Lucho could have thought that. After Vale explains about hugging LCJ, she comments that ever since her father died, she hasn’t been able to breathe. Juls tries to comfort Vale and tells her that she wishes she could be with her, but she can’t leave her mother alone. Just then, Juls hears the doorbell and has to end the call.

He wanted to beat up the man, but he couldn’t. Hec-Maru saw how happy they were…maybe they’re better off without him. I thought I heard a bell tingle.

    We open with Daniela having a contraction at Susana’s bridal shower. At Pancho’s place, Gabriel has the guys taste the new mezcal, which didn’t turn out very well and tasted diluted. He apologizes and asks Guido if he knows anything about this. Guido of course denies knowing anything. Then, Linda and Frieda come knocking at the door and running in to tell Gabriel about the contraction. He wants to take Daniela to the hospital, but she doesn’t want to go. Susana says that since she is having triplets, they could come premature. Then Axel advises her about the contractions. Dani says it was only one contraction and since it was only one contraction she decides it’s a false alarm.

    Guido looks proud of himself as he thinks about the poison that will be very difficult to detect when it is ingested.

    As Gabe attends to Daniela, his face is looking very blotchy. There is obviously something wrong with him.

As Lucía approaches, LCJ tries to stop her, but she pushes forward and sees Daniel. Lucía steps back in shock almost collapsing as she leans against the vehicle after reading the message “Ungrateful” left on the windshield.

    Lucía is distraught and tells Montilla he has to do something; the man had a family and children. Montilla wants to make it clear so she can understand…organized crime has many more resources and is much more organized than they (the cops) are; and that is why they sent her that message. When Lucía states that she thought she could keep Armenta in line, Montilla wonders how she could think that when not even the previous governments have been able to accomplish it. Lucía cries in anguish as she watches Johny arrive.  No, not on a white horse, though now it smells like one was here.

Eva has no qualms about paying more, the PI just needs to tell her how many zeros to add on the check…she needs that evidence to prove that Lucía and Johny are lovers. You may need more than one PI Evie.
    In Johny’s office, Lucía relishes in talking about Eva’s reaction to her proposal…it was poetic. Johny compliments and congratulates Sra. Lucía on a job well done. When he remarks that the student outdoes the teacher, Lucía responds that the teacher did a good job and that deserves much merit. Johny gets fresh and starts stroking Lucía’s legs, but she reminds him that they are at the office (and he surely isn’t the chauffeur?). Johny misses her and wants to shout to the world that they are an item. Lucía gives a look of annoyance and tells Johny that is enough. Item? Like week old milk.

    Mi marido tiene más familia Wednesday 1/16/19 Capítulo 88 One Truth is Revealed--OR--The Fox Lives in the Hen House

    At the hospital, Linda prays with Gabriel as Nonno and Guido watch on.  Gabriel's sisters arrive. They hug him. There is a strong possibility of Dani having a miscarriage and losing the babies.

    Imelda is being accompanied by her new gofer Ignacio.  She needs Ignacio to be totally dedicated to her and one step ahead of everything. Ignacio assures her that he will not be a tortoise but a hare. Imelda arrives at her store and sees Crisanta. She tells Ignacio that his first job will be to construct a wall in between their stores to divide them and to get Crisanta to pay for it.  The women start exchanging "witchy" insults and their "assistants" join them in other insults. 

    Back at the hospital, Nonno talks to Guido about how he fears that Gabriel will not be able to take losing even one baby.  Nonno remembers perfectly when Gabriel's mother died and Gabriel himself almost died from  the grief.  Guido can sympathize having lost his own parents. Guido is sure it will all end well because destiny's plans are always perfect.  He smiles.

    Amar a Muerte, 1/15/2019, Episode 50: The Law Takes 'Dirt' and Death Takes 'Saints'


    Alt Title: That's My Body and I'll Take It If I Want It

    Beltrino gasps as he thinks about seeing his body. He watches Mugres going up the hospital stairs and starts to go after him with his weapon drawn. When Mugres reaches the top of the stairs and is seen, people start screaming and the undercover nurse and another cop yell at him. As LCJ turns around and makes a run for it, shots are fired, Beltrino makes a quick u-turn down the stairs, and Carmelo goes down. Mugres grabs a nurse as hostage and retreats as he tells the undercover nurse to not move. Once Mugres makes a run for it, the nurse chases after him while LCJ hides behind the nurse’s station and Beltrino is at the bottom of the stairwell waiting for things to settle down upstairs.

    Outside, the cops arrive and are told to cover all the exits. Mugres has released the nurse and runs down the outside stairs while flinging around his weapon. As the undercover nurse talks to the head cop and tells him that García was shot, Lupita is panicking and Juls tells Vale to lock the door. Vale goes to close the door, but LCJ grabs and pulls her out to take her away from the hospital. Meanwhile, Beltrino goes to look behind the nurse’s station in search of his former body. He finds nothing and looks around. Out on the stairs, Vale is yelling at LCJ that she needs to stay with Juls, but LCJ yells back that he is not going to let anything happen to her and that they are leaving NOW! Inside, Beltrino walks frantically in search of his body as Alicia calls him about the shots fired; so he tells her to lock herself in the room. Outside, Vale is trying to get away from LCJ because she wants to go back with Juls until he grabs her head with both hands and tells her that no one will harm her. Mugres is still running through stairs and halls trying to get away from the cops who are now everywhere; they finally manage to surround him at some stairs. After he has a hissy fit and drops his weapon, the cops cuff and arrest him.

    Amar a Muerte, 1/14/19, Episode 49: Johny's Alter-Ego Makes an Appearance

    You are invited to gather around Guille’s favorite spot by the fountain on the Carvajál estate while your intrepid reporter from ALL Chismes ALL the Time checks into the stories swirling around The Widow of Mexico, her family, business and acquaintances. The Truth will be revealed in parts by yours truly, Hedda Saltadora.

    Part 1
    * Just to refresh your memory which made have faded due to non-stop football over the weekend, Friday we left Johny pointing Fabricio’s gun at poor trembling Fabricio in the security office. Johny is certain Fab is involved in this little gaslighting game that’s going on with the photos and notes arriving in León’s handwriting. (NOTE: I was unaware that a soul retains its original handwriting when deposited in another body, but Ok, for the sake of the story, I’m willing to go with it.)

    * Waving the gun around, Johny wants an explanation for the hooded guy in the video (Fab admits to it being him) delivering the envelope to Johny’s house, after hours. Fab says it was with the rest of the mail and there was a note with it from Johny himself for it to be delivered right away. He was just following orders. When Johny asks to produce the note, Fab says he threw it away after the envelope had been delivered. So, Johny the unctuous and obsequious, is gone and in his place is the paranoid, menacing real Johny the Crown (rhymes with Clown). Fortunately for Fab, he tosses the gun aside but warns Fab if he learns that he’s no longer his faithful dog and betraying him, after all he’s done for him, and making him crazy with Jacobo, he’s going to kill both of them and eat them in pieces. (All this happened in the first minute.)

She isn't getting any younger.  Everyone groans again.  Linda tells Imelda that a woman is not more valuable just because she has children.  Imelda feels picked on and says if they do not want to hear her opinion then  it is better that she go to her room. Susana asks her to stay and if they cannot they all have an agreeable time together.  Imelda says not in this building. Nonno offers to leave with Imelda.
