Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2, Viernes 5/10/19, Episode 42: Who's Your Daddy?

In the Underworld:

Carlos delivers the maps of El Gringo's districts of operation, but El Ciego only has eyes for his calculator. Carlos finally gets his attention by mentioning the evidence tape, which sends El Ciego through the roof. Carlos spins out his story masterfully, finally revealing that he has lined up a full slate of accomplices to solve the problem, but he'll need money.  "Chivo! El Portafolio!"

El Ciego makes it very clear to Carlos that to find and deal with his fiancee's killer, he needs to be out of jail and off the police radar. Carlos demands the right to dispatch El Gringo himself. El C doubts he has the avocados for that kind of job, but finally says that if El Gringo is found alive, he'll invite Carlos to the party. (There seems to be a shift in the balance of power here, with Carlos acting increasingly deranged, at one point even grabbing El Ciego by the back of the neck and shouting directly into his face. Is Carlos learning from his patron?)

Casa de Gustavo:

Ric drops in on Gus, who asks him how he's doing. (Can we dispense with that question, please? He's mal, muy mal. We all see it, and we don't want to hear about it anymore.) Gus gives him a fatherly lecture about getting ahold of himself, and then tells him he has something to show him. He leads him upstairs and stops in front of a crime wall that would be the envy of any police station. The only way he was able to go on, he admits, is because he never stopped investigating. They agree to join forces, with Ric insisting that Carlos has something to do with all of it and Gus concentrating on the death of El Gato.

Alternate Nueva York:

Meester Bloompz invites Cristina to present her idea before the board, then humiliates her in front of everyone by asking if she spread her legs to get the sale. To their credit, they all look uncomfortable. Adding insult to injury, or the other way around, he keeps her after the meeting to spell out that things could go very well or very badly for her: it's her choice. She tosses her hair and says she's not that kind of girl and flounces off to HR. On the way, her frenemy reminds her that she's not a citizen and could lose both her job and her work visa, but our Cristina is undaunted. Is there any doubt she will end up in the capable hands of Super-Vicky?

Bufete Vega:

It looks like a workday, but actually it's just one of those talking-about-workdays.

Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Miercoles 5/8/19 Episode 41: Thieves


Carlos told Nancy that their lives would be in danger if she couldn't find some way to get El Ciego's image out of the security videos. Nancy told him she couldn't do this. He asked “Couldn't or wouldn't?” and she said that they would have to involve other people and that it would cost. He said that money was no object, then asked her again whether she will do this. Nancy told Carlos that what he was asking for was a serious crime. He said he knew that, but the firm was at stake. Thus he got her to agree. She reminded him that this would cost a lot of money and he said not to worry. Further that she was not to discuss this with anyone, including Alan. She told him not to worry about it. He said he was glad he hired her.

Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Martes 5/7/19, Episode 40: Digging


I'm Christopher Mason. Digging for evidence is often a thankless job. It's even more difficult when those doing it are too emotionally involved in the case. Too much objectivity is usually lost.

I'm Candice DeLong. The dangers of police work are rarely understood by people outside enforcement agencies. Even by lawyers, who should know better.

Victoria went to see Ricardo. She hugged him and cried as she told him how sorry she was for his loss. Alejandra had been her friend, colleague, and like a sister. He started crying and she told him he had to go on. He had her, Roberto, Gustavo, Alonso, and everyone else at the firm. What he was feeling was normal but he would get better a little at a time. He was to do that for Alejandra.

Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Lunes 5/619, Episode 39: The Crasher



Carlos took the microphone and greeted his guests, singling out groups by title. He effectively dedicated this to Alejandra despite that their aborted nuptuals had been months ago and said that his firm would be dedicated to serving its clients well. He made it short and sweet, closing with telling everyone to have a good time. A short round of applause later two reporters shoved microphones in his face and one asked whether there was any progress on the investigation into Alejandra's death. He told her that the police were doing their work.

Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Viernes 5/3/19, Episode 38: More Lies and Less Whispers

Part 1 – Rick lands in jail for a few minutes
*We start up where PASL left off last night. Rick has lost his marbles and decides to take on the whole police force right outside their offices. He’s yelling at the top of his voice that Quiroz is responsible for Ale’s death. Rick bloodies Quiroz’ jaw and Quiroz’s buddies take Rick down. He’s taken into custody and dragged away towards the police station.

*Bobby starts to call—Victoria maybe? He throws the phone down as Juan arrives to chat. He’s puzzled by the condition everyone at the office is in. They’re all so…so, down. Bobby says they are all affected by what happened to Ale and he declares they have to catch those desgraciados. He gets a call. When he gets to Gus’ office Bobby tells him Rick is in trouble.

*They show up at the jail to find Rick behind bars. Why? Why? Rick says he just couldn’t control himself. He was so angry and frustrated over Quiroz letting Ale do what she was doing without telling anyone else. Gus says he knows exactly how he feels, but reminds him that those folks were doing their jobs. Rick insists that if he had known what Ale was up to she wouldn’t have died. Gus gives him more soothing, comforting words—Ale will live on inside him.

Victoria knew from the tone of Roberto's voice that something was wrong. He told her that Alejandra had died. He explained that there was a complication and she became brain-dead a few hours previously. He couldn't believe it any more than she could and apologized for telling her over the phone. She told him she would be alright and would talk to him later. Adrián heard her end of the conversation and also couldn't believe this. He tried to embrace her but she became angry at the injustice of it. She then said she had to get back to Mexico to be with the others.

Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Martes 4/30/19, Episode 35: Thy Will Be Done


I'm Christopher Mason. The only true democratic force in the world is death. It comes to everyone and it doesn't care whether it is fair or not. Living wills have been around for a while but not everyone can take the responsibility of carrying them out any more than others can take responsibility for provoking the death in the first place.

I'm Candice DeLong. Death doesn't discriminate and it is frequently premature. Especially when it results from violence.

Carlos told Ricardo to fight for Alejandra's life. He then left quietly, leaving Ricardo to think about it.

Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Viernes 4/26/19, Episode 33: Sleeping Booty Awakes

[Note: Some scenes combined or omitted altogether because nothing. freaking. happened.]

Bufete Vega, Part I:

The evidence from the shooting is in, and it's super-confusing. Well, it's a little confusing, but the lawyers manage to make it way more confusing. Ballistics says that the shots were fired from both inside and outside the club, and the getaway vehicle in the video doesn't match the one that disgorged the killers of Gustavo's family and that Ale later followed to the site of Jaime's kidnapping. Is there one gang or two? Was Alejandra a target or just collateral damage? As usual, the Vegans manage to leave the information swap-meet somehow knowing less than they did going in.

TOHIMC, Part I:

The doctors withdraw Alejandra's sedation and she doesn't immediately croak, which cheers everyone up immensely. When Ricardo starts getting repetitive with all the te amo's and mi vida's, she can't take it any more and wakes up and agrees to marry him. He rips off his mask and covers her with unsanitary kisses, conscientiously putting it back on as he exits. I think they need to print the instructions bigger on those things.

Paula & Jaime rush Ale for a group hug. She parrots back all the love talk, but she looks kind of annoyed, like maybe she'd hoped to wake up on another show. (But now that she's conscious, can everybody go home and shave, please? It looks like the Waiting Room of Sierra Madre in there.)

Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Martes 4/23/19, Episode 30: The Blame Game


I'm Christopher Mason. When one crisis is followed by another no one is safe. Even those who manage not to be hit in a gangland shootout will never be the same because of what they have seen. This will affect how they manage their work and their lives. People who get involved with the criminals in these cases never think about the consequences until they are caught up in it. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is contagious and Blame is everywhere.

I'm Candice DeLong. Crime causes a ripple effect on the people around its primary victims. That is why punishment needs to remain severe.

Quiróz questioned a waiter about what happened. He described seeing four men shooting against two others, but didn't see the shooters well. Quiróz asked one of his men to commandeer an office for the rest of the interviews and told the waiter that anything he could remember would be helpful.

Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Viernes 4/19/19, Episode 28: Everything’s Coming up Roses for Ale

Part 1 of several yet to come - The full story of Violeta, Andrés and Sol
* Adrián and Victoria are with Violeta at the prison, where she and her mother are languishing on account of their arrest for supposedly stealing Violeta's husband, Andrés' car. Vicky relates how Andrés tricked her and blames herself for trusting him. Adrián quickly steps in and says she isn’t to blame. Vicky tells Violeta that when she went to pick him up that morning, after he’d agreed to modify his statement, she was told by the maid that he and the little girl had left on a vacation. Vicky assures Vi that Sol was ok and happy the day before. Vi reacts immediately. Andrés must have been planning this for a long time. The two of them had been planning a trip to Disneyland for Sol’s vacation for months. She even knows the name of the hotel they were going to stay in, in Anaheim.

Sofia met with three people who lost relatives in the fire at El Cuevo the night before. The man pointed out that the club had not complied with safety regulations.

La Reina del Sur - Season 2 Starts Monday, April 22!

The celebrated novela La Reina del Sur (2011) was the highest-rated series in Telemundo's history, and the best telenovela I've ever seen anywhere. Now, eight years later, Telemundo is about to present a sequel! Season 2 will begin this coming Monday, April 22, 2019, at 10 PM.  Like the original, it will star Kate del Castillo as the powerful drug trafficker Teresa Mendoza. A number of other members of the original cast will also return in season 2.

The new season of La Reina del Sur was shot on location in eight countries — Italy, Russia, Romania, Spain, Belize, Mexico, Colombia and the U.S. It takes place eight years after Teresa Mendoza disappeared into the U.S. witness protection program after bringing down Mexican presidential candidate Epifanio Vargas (Humberto Zurita).

In season 2, Teresa is living a quiet life as Maria Dantes in a Tuscan village, where she is raising her daughter, Sofia (Isabella Sierra). That is, until the past comes back to haunt her (of course).

Season 2 starts this coming Monday, April 22, at 10 pm on Telemundo. I hear that Telemundo has added the option of English captions to make possible an even broader audience.  Y'all come and watch and then share your thoughts on Caray's Telemundo y Más pages.

Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Martes 4/16/19, Episode 25: Declarations of War


I'm Christopher Mason. War is not only something fought between nations or religions. It happens on Wall Street, on Main Street, in back alleys, and in living rooms. The latter two theatres of operation are just as competitive and bloody in outcomesas the first two and there is always collateral damage. The declarations of war don't have to be formal to qualify for that description.

I'm Candice DeLong. I've seen many examples of both kinds. There are usually multiple battles and in the end noboy wins.

Violeta and her mother tried to tell the police they were making a mistake but they were cuffed and taken in.

Capítulo 147

Imelda sees Tulio and Audi all "pinkified" from the exfoliant treatment the kids gave them in the hall and asks them what happened. They don't realize that there is something wrong until they look at each other. The viewer is reminded  how Ari and Temo got dyed pink in the school swimming pool by the school bullies. Audi asks why they are all pink. Tulio says "pink" is for "women" . . . or for "gays" they blurt out in unison clearly horrified.

At the "private" graduation dance, Ari goes in for a kiss and it is mission accomplished as he kisses Temo on the lips. The boys pin flowers on each other's lapel and Ari tells Temo his answer to him will always be say yes! Ari gives Temo a ring. There is nothing left to say. They hug and joyfully dance together.

Back at the prison, Yolo has come to see Guido again.

Por Amar Sin Ley, Season 2 Viernes 4/12/19, Episode 23: Deja Vu All Over Again

Juan goes to Big Daddy Alonso to get permission to appeal Monica's sentence. You do know she's guilty, right, son? Yes, but everyone deserves a good defense! Seeing how badly Johnny wants his new toy, Alonso reluctantly agrees. When Roberto comes around later to ask Juan if he's going to fall for every chick with a sob story and a sick kid, Juan gives his impassioned speech again, this time with shouting and pointing. That being all that's required to argue a case at Vega, I guess he's ready.

Alejandra and Ricardo strew their giddy pareja-news all over town. Paula is thrilled to pieces that her daughter is going to be cohabiting with some divorced guy, which just goes to show how much telenovelas have changed. But don't they know that every "para siempre" and "nada nos separa" just comes closer to waking the Karma Dragon? The way they're covering the waterfront, when this anvil falls, it's going to fall in front of everyone. (Could it maybe fall on them both? Pretty please?) Ric has started talking to her in that singsongy voice he uses with his kids, so maybe she'll just move to Vancouver or be swallowed by a canopy bed.

Mi marido tiene más familia Friday 4/12/19 Capítulo 146 A Plate Full of Drama with a Little Hope and Hijinks on the Side

In Blanca's living room in front of the whole family, Robert tells Eugenio that he is his son. Doesn't he remember that he came back?  Eugenio is convinced that his son got lost at the market and has never returned. He himself has looked all over Oaxaca and could not find him.  Eugenio adds that everyone in the family has suffered so much because of his son being gone.  The family looks on sadly. Blanca tries to convince Eugenio that his son is back and is right in front of him.  Eugenio now recognizes Robert not as his son but as his father.

Back at the prison, Guido cannot stand to see Luigi's stupid face. Luigi tells Guido "his dear little baby" not to worry. Due to what he testified to in court, his sentence is much shorter than  than Guido's. He will be saying arrividerci soon to Guido to which he  adds a little wave. Guido lunges and tries to attack him but Luigi is stronger. Luigi and Guido are fighting it out as the guards pull them apart and tell them both to calm down.

Back at Blanca's,  Imelda tries to convince Eugenio that he is confusing Juan Pablo his son with his father Canuto. Eugenio cannot be convinced.  Robert tells Eugenio his whole  Juan Pablo story from the day he was lost to the day he returned. Imelda says his father Canuto died a while back. Eugenio disagrees. He sees Robert as Canuto who he waited for forever to bring him his little red car.  He  recognizes Neto as his son Juan Pablo who finally turned up and offers him the legendary red sweater.

We begin with Dani in anguish at the front door because Carlos wanted to kiss her. She says, “No Carlos, No.” Evidently, Carlos thought that all these months of friendship could lead to something more serious.

She cries after shutting the door and Carlos looks quite hurt on the other side.

At Catalina’s place, they are having dinner with the children, but Julieta and Robert aren’t there because they are out at the restaurant having dinner with Temo and Ari. Doorbell rings and it’s Diana. She wants to know if Hugo can forgive her after all this time. She still loves him. Julieta and Robert arrive just as Diana leaves. Robert advises Hugo to forgive.
