Caray, Caray!

Marcelo is being shoved into the back of a police car having been caught red-handed trying to sell one of the stolen pre-hispanic art pieces supposedly robbed by Augusto Cantu prior to his murder.  Of course Elisa is as surprised as anybody that it's Marc. What happens next with Marc? Leo says he's going to be held at the police station as Suspect Numero Uno.   Elisa is dumb blond dumbfounded--more tragedy and heartbreak--and more migraine material.  Poor big sister!  How to deal with it all?  Elisa simply cannot go on.  She asks Leonardo how she can possibly inform the family that Marcelo is involved with stolen art and the death of his father-in-law?  Especially Renata?  Leo says hang on a Mexicano minute.  He's going to be held for theft and trafficking of stolen art pieces but NOT for murder. (Small comfort, babe.)  Elisa tells him that Marc is totally incapable of that--that what?  (What, Elisa?  Theft, trafficking, or murder?)  Whatever, the news needs to come from Elisa, advises Leo.  Worse days are ahead.

 Promises are supposed to be good things, but sometimes they can't be kept. There is always something or some jerk in the way. Does that make it a lie?

Sorry we're a little short on the banter today; it's been a tough weekend. – Dashiell Hammett

Leo and Elisa kissed and talked about starting over. They forgave each other. They could not be without each other. She showed him a computer storage device and they left together.

Victoria asked the badly disguised Dario whether they needed to sign for anything.

“I'm just waiting for an answer,” he said. Majo stared at her hands while gritting her teeth through this. The maid entered to tell Victoria that Clara was waiting to talk to her. She left Majo alone with her secret lover and captor. He looked more like the latter than the former.
“What are you doing here?” she asked.
“You were free of me. I just wanted to be close.”
She looked behind. “If she sees you –”
“Your mother? Your mother left you with a messenger. Only you can tell her otherwise.” He moved in closer, causing her to back away at the same pace. “What are you going to do? Are you going to tell her who I am?:
“No, no” she said, shaking her head. “I won't tell her. But I don't want you to be here. I don't need the anxiety. The fear.”
“Fear? Why?” he asked He moved in closer. “You know I would never hurt you.”
“You have hurt me,” she said, grimacing. “Don't you remember? Leave me alone, please.”
“I am completely insane about you.”
“Go. Go. Please,” she said, shaking her head. He stroked her face. Neither of them saw Renata on the other side of the window in the room's door.
“You will always be mine,” he whispered. “Don't forget that.”

He stepped away without kissing her. She was crying. She crossed her arms and closed in on herself. Renata did not enter the room. She was quiet as a mouse.

Leo runs into El after finding out about the diary, etc. Ms. El gets the cold shoulder, as she should. Ruh Roh, Leo does not jump through his ass every time a Cantu eyelash flutters. The end of the world.

Good for Leo grow a pair, turn and walk away. Leo can't confide in El since she did not tell him about the diary. That is your first clue Leo.

Majo has disappeared!! Warden Vic has checked her cell and she is nowhere to be found. End of the world 2.0.

Vic tells Eww that the kiss shouldn't have happened. Oh wow, strong statement there, Eww must be terrified.

I was waiting for: “But But Sis, Dario kidnapped me.”
“Oh yeah, Kidnapped me too last night.”
Did not! Did too did not did too.

At Scario's trendy hideout he and Majo have some catching up to do. Scario is sad that she believes things that he didn't do. We are privy to some pretty sexy screaming.
Majo reminds him that he promised to change. Scario tells her to take out her anger, Oops, on him?

Previously on...

Elisa is kidnapped in front of the restaurant where Leo is waiting for their “let’s start over” date. The Cantus should look into getting a 2 for 1 discount with the feds for their kidnapping situations.

Her head covered, she is taken to the fanciest looking kidnapping bunker, where Dario is waiting, to spread some of his Cantu sisters lover joy. Gun to her head, Elisa receives the following instructions: she is to take the million dollars that he will hand her and deposit it in the account that he will give her. And she has 24 hours to do it. Elisa refuses, she can’t move around all that money to their shady accounts, the constructora is being monitored.  Dario points out that is not HIS problem, and if she doesn’t do as he says, mommy Victoria will be the next to suffer the consequences. Elisa, I say good riddance, let him try, see who wins in a fight with Victoria Cantu.

⦁ When is a kiss not a kiss?  When it's conflicted.  Like Leo seems to be. the poor thing.  Seems his motor's revving but he's still stuck in P for parked.  Elisa is tired of him just spinning his wheels.    He tells the teary-eyed Elisa that his head is a jumble of mixed feelings and thoughts.  She wonders why he didn't figure it out once he saw the videos of Julia with Daddy.  Those should have clarified a lot of things for him.  Leo doesn't want to hurt her, but he doesn't know what he feels/wants and his emotions are all over the board.  He's not rejecting her BUT... Well, he might as well have according to Elisa.  She says she doesn't deserve to be played and knows exactly what and who she wants.  (Gawd only knows why it's him.)  Head games simply are not on her list.  Leo looks scared to take her at her word.  However, timid teddy bear types on guilt trips are not Elisa's--nor this corner of Viewerville's--style.  (Please, somebody buy this dude a clue.)  She walks away, more than less perturbed.

Too much insomnia after too much of the air of the dog makes for unsought brevity. This time, anyway. – Dashiell Hammett

“What did you say, Clara?” Leo asked. “what did you tell me?”

“Don't be afraid, Clara,” Victoria said, in that voice that shouted it was something unwelcome. “Just tell Leo what you discovered about her.”

“What did you find out? Tell me.”

“I'm sorry, it was nothing.”

“No, no,” said Victoria with a cynical smile Leo could only hear in her voice. “It's not your fault that your sister was my husband's lover.”

“Is what she said true, Clara?” Leo asked. He was calmer than Victoria was hoping for. “Is there anything you want to tell me?”

“No, sorry,” she said. She left the room quickly. She did not look him in the eye. He went after her.

“Clara, wait.” He followed her out.

“At least she told him,” Victoria said. She was as unemotional as a CEO addressing a board meeting.

“What have you done, Mother?” Elisa asked. “Why is this person in the house?”

“Is she the sister of the woman who died with my father” Majo asked.

“What are you doing?” Elisa asked.

“Why don't you tell her? Because you have no case? Clara is my personal assistant.” She turned to Elisa. “Besides, there is nothing wrong with helping people who need it.”

“I'm sorry, but I don't believe in your 'good intentions.' What does she know about Father? What did she tell you?”

Like always, scenes have been combined and dialogue reduced to the important facts. Feel free to add anything I might have missed.

Elisa is kissing on Leo again and this time he really looks uncomfortable. He goes for the “it’s not you, it’s me” speech, or the Spanish version “no me lo tomes a mal”, but it only makes Elisa feel worse, since she thought he felt the same (gotta be the breakfast he prepared for her several times).

Leo’s problem is that he hasn’t forgotten Julia (how could he, since she’s only been dead for 14 capitulos). But they do need to keep working together to find the assassins. (Remember the premise of the show? So much seems to have happened in the meantime)

In conclusion: what keeps them together tears them apart (cue dramatic music).

 Maria Jose is rescued, so is Dario's mom who assumes her son is dead and starts to spill the beans about his criminal activity, Maria Jose tells her to keep quiet and to say nothing else to the police. Leo tries to get Maria Jose to talk to Elisa but she refuses to, in fact for the rest of the episode Majo continues to refuse to see/talk to Elisa because this dumb bell apparently trusts her kidnapper more than she does her sister, maybe she is too stupid to live.

Elisa is heartbroken that her sister won't talk to her, but things only get worse for her because Fernanda, with Eugenio's blessing tells Victoria EVERYTHING, she tells Victoria that Leo is a cop, that Majo was never in New York but was in fact kidnapped. Victoria is livid! Behind the scenes Eugenio  pulled some strings to get his dirty cop Gilberto to interview Majo about her experience, he does this in order to find out what Majo knows about why/who ordered her kidnapping. Majo tells Gilberto she has no idea why she was kidnapped, she believes it was in order to get money from her family, she says she was blindfolded the whole time and would be unable to identify her abductor.

Eugenio gave Dario orders to have his men kill Maria José and to dispose of the body. Dario resisted, but Eugenio would not let him off the hook. He was forced to make the phone call and give the order in front of Eugenio. He told Domingo to get Gustavo in. He looked at Eugenio as he ended the call. “Perfect. You aren't the idiot you appear to be. Advise me when this is completed.” He then left.

 Hi everyone! hope you enjoy the recap.

Elisa spends most of the episode trying to secure the one million dollars requested by the kidnapper, she asks the general manager of Cantu Inc. to call all the banks and try to secure a loan, they are going to lie on the loan applications and tell the bankers they need to money to finish some of her dads projects. Fernanda later questions Alfonso (the GM) about Elisa's erratic behavior and Alfonso spills the beans about the money, Fernanda then calls the police station and reports that Elisa is looking for a large sum of money.

Maria Jose fails at trying to run away from her kidnappers, Dario makes a show about "punishing" her but in the end does nothing to her, he ends up staying in her room as she sleeps.

Clara has the worst first day at work ever. Victoria jumps right in and accuses Julia of sleeping with her dead husband, Clara denies this and tells Victoria the following: Julia was a teacher making only a very small wage, the money was not enough to provide for the family, nor was it enough to cover their fathers high medical bills. Victoria's husband recruited Julia into a scheme where she would transport stolen art for him and that's what got her killed. Victoria insists that they're lovers. Ugh, someone should tell Clara to quit this gig, she can probably make more money selling pictures of her toes on the internet and it would be a lot less stressful.

   Renata, the life of the party

Sonia and Leo are outside, taking a breath of fresh air and threatening one another.

She thinks that she has Leo cornered, but that’s not exactly true, since he’s just seen her making out with Marcelo in the bathroom. Slow clap, Leonardo Velasco, you're not that bad of a cop. Also, I gotta say, Marcelo is pretty stupid to risk this much, it can’t be because of his great love for Sonia. More likely his libido and thinking he’s too good to be discovered? Sonia knows Leo is no NY businessman and he knows she’s a cheater. Leo suggests a pact, they both keep their mouths shut and keep on doing what they want. Sonia supposes that Elisa is not aware of the lie, but she doesn’t have a choice but to agree to Leo’s terms.

Dario shows a misbehaving Elisa what's behind Door #1 and Door #2 if she continues to disobey him.  The first video scares Elisa out of her wits as she sees a mockup of Maria Jose on the video crying hysterically with a gun to her head complete with the gun going off.  Dario describes in wretched detail how the whole family will blame her and how it will be her fault if, in addition to losing Papi, she must bear Majo's death on her conscience.  Elisa becomes hysterical until Dario Demento shows her the second video of her sister and threatens again to kill kid sister if Elisa goes off the reservation again.  (Torture and abuse in my book!)  "--No more little games!"   Elisa agrees to be obedient and do what he asks provided once those darned art pieces are found and returned, her sister is returned to her in one piece, and he never darkens their door again.  (What?  Elisa must really be trippin' to think she's got that kind of leverage with Scario de Dario (thanks to patio peep, Susanlynn for the perfect moniker). 

Dario wants the truth about any supposed boyfriend of hers since her family has never heard about him.  Elisa names him on the fly as Leonardo Marquez and says the family is simply not in the know.  He's from Nueva Yorrrrk and was tied up with something when her daddy died.  He reminds her that her life belongs to him now and he'll be watching every little thing she does.  Otherwise, he'll make sure Majo is tortured mercilessly before he finally kills her.

I'm back in Mexico City where money can't buy honesty. This is such a high-level case I'm going to have a good time with it. There is a lot to dig up. Should be a best-seller someday. – Dashiell Hammet

Leo found Elisa in the airport lobby, head down as though she were crying. She wasn't, but was clearly distressed.

“What happened?” he asked.

“My sister was kidnapped. They threatened me they would kill her if I went to the police, if I told my family, if I didn't do what they demanded. They said they would return her to me once I did and they did not. Help me. Help me, please. I implore you.”

He embraced her as he looked around. “Try to calm down.”

“They won't return her to me until I give them the things they said my father stole.”

“Do you know where they are?”

“No, no. I have no idea. They're capable of killing her.”

“We will save her,” he said. “I will help you.”

“No, Leo. No, no, no, I don't know how.”

“You don't know what I can do. I will investigate –”

“No. you can't. We can't risk her life –” She tried to leave, but he stopped her.

“Don't forget that this is related to the murder of my fiancée. I can help you. My car is outside; let's get out of here.”

He took her suitcase and they left, looking around warily.

• 10-11PM—Falsa Identidad 2**

**Telemundo's website and Zap2It disagree about what to expect this Tuesday, Sept. 29, when the first debate between Biden and Trump will take place. Telemundo's calendar shows that neither Todo por mi hija nor Falsa Identidad 2 will be shown that night. Instead, Telemundo will air something called Decision 2020. Zap2It, however, claims that Falsa Identidad 2 will run for two hours (9-11), and Todo por mi hija will not be shown. Both sources claim that things return to normal the next day. If I learn anything further, I'll post it here. UPDATE: At the end of Monday's broadcast of Falsa Identidad 2 on the West Coast, it was announced that the next episode of the telenovela would appear on Wednesday.

It's that time again! With fall fashion coming into full bloom it's time for us to look at the fashion felonies and misdemeanors of our favorite people. This is our special Medical Community edition. In some cases the crime is more about how inappropriate the clothing is for where or when it is worn.:

Constanza Castillo makes a compromise in a form-fitting dress with sheer overlays... in matronly grey.

Elisa turns around to find Leonardo right behind her about to look for his seat.  She steps into the aisle in front of him.  "--What are you doing here?  Are you following me?"  He's not letting this thing/or her go until she gives a statement or decides to trust him.  "--That's not going to happen."  He must move along.  (Everyone's in line behind him and, man, those carry-ons and duty-free bags of goodies tend to get heavy, don't ya know.)  He moves along to the back and sits down.  She continues to peek back there at him and consider whether to move.

 Hello patio peeps! I hope everyone is doing okay, tonight's recap will be short and snappy, if I miss anything please feel free to add it in the comments section.

 Leonardo finds Elisa at Julia's house, he chases her out of the house and a short car chase ensues, these people have no regard for the other motorists on the road, anyhoo, Leo catches up with Elisa, handcuffs her to himself and drives her to the scene of her father's murder- this has got to be the worst field trip ever. Leo badgers Elisa and she finally tells him that her father was involved with some bad people and that these same people believe that he was in possession of some stolen artifacts worth a lot of money and they are demanding that Elisa find them and return them.

Previously on…

Majo, the youngest Cantu sister has been kidnapped in broad daylight, on a busy highway.

Renata, the oldest sister, has an undisclosed mental illness, which makes it impossible for her to have the baby she obsessively desires.

Elisa, the middle sister, is being confronted by the ruggedly halfway handsome special detective Leonardo – he suspects things and demands some answers.

Some scenes are combined, others are condensed, these people talk too much, and it’s hard to keep up.

Elisa and Leonardo get to know one another

Elisa is weeping.

Leonardo would like to help, if only she could trust him. She needs to tell him everything, she can’t do it all on her own.

Elisa is unsure, it’s too early in the game to open up to him; her phone rings, so she takes advantage of the distraction to try to evade Leo’s questions. He believes that Augusto was involved in the stolen artifacts debacle (expect for me to repeat this phrase A LOT – new drinking game?) and Julia was an innocent victim.

This makes Elisa react strongly, what if Julia was involved? After all, she thought she knew her father, too, and look how well that turned out. Why were they together in the middle of nowhere, if not because they were secret lovers (is there any other kind?). Elisa’s phone rings again. Leo insists that he only wants to help, but Elisa is sure that he can’t. And off she goes.

·         Tall, dark, and halfway-handsome Leonardo is definitely overwhelmed by the steamy liplock Elisa has just laid on him. (But then again, could be he's just relieved he didn't eat the onion and garlic bagels during his coffee break this morning.)  We gotta figure that Leo seems to be bright enough a copper (pun totally unintended) to note the worried look on this blond bombshell's face, not to mention, the telephone conversation he must have overheard.  "--Is somebody watching us? Does this have to do with your father's death? Look, I only want to help you." She answers that he has helped enough; please don't ask her anything more, and then fakes a lover's good-bye blow kiss.  He remains there, staring after her (either getting more in touch with himself or perhaps just drawn by something more than simply altruistic motives (Julia who??).

Not my best literary work, but this tale moves too fast for that. Just remember that with this producer you are not guaranteed predictability or a happy ending. – Urban Anthropologist

Monterrey, Mexico: Undercover police detective Leonardo Velasco kept in touch with his tech team while on his way to meet a suspect in the carnival area. A thug came up from behind, holding a gun to his back and telling him to keep walking. He was hoping to get away from any possibility of being watched or ambushed. A bald man watched them from behind, pretending to eat popcorn.

Finally Leonardo stopped, turned around, and asked to see “the merchandise.” The an said not without showing the money. Leonardo tried to delay this, the bald man ran up to them to warn his accomplice the police were in the area. The accomplice shot Leonardo, grabbed his bag, and ran. It did not look as though anyone noticed.Read more »
