PEAM #55- 5/24/13: She Likes The Way He Moves, Mr Grinch Pays a Visit to Monterrey.
Twas a couple days before Christmas,
And all through Avon,
The people were working,
No smiles going on.
Except for the baddies that had visions of mis planes dancing through their heads!
So please read the recap, and judge for yourself,
Who'll have the best Christmas and who has outdone himself ; )
St Ferny Will Have A Blue Christmas:
Imagine if you will, St Ferny, who is sweating bullets cause Discua has shown up at his door unannounced with Jess' shirt in his hand behind his back. Discua would like to be invited in, and before St Ferny can say a thing, she enters the apartment, hears Jess, and goes and takes a look see. Ruh, Roh, there is Jess in St. Ferny's bed naked as a jaybird, except she is all covered up by the bed spread. Well, Discua is not very happy, she actually wanted to see if that text she got was true! She slaps St Ferny and tells him off, and calls Jess a mujerzuela! Discua dumps St. Ferny right there cause he broke her heart, even though St Ferny, who actually has resisted the temptation of Jess, wasn't given a chance to explain. Now St. Ferny is the patron Saint of lost loves and the misjudged. Pobrecito! Of course the source of the temptation is as happy as if she were just handed some figgy pudding. Now Jess is all dressed again and St. Ferny wants to know if she set this up like the evil elf she is. He figures out that Jess must have had something to do with that text that was sent to Discua. Jess denies, denies, denies. St Ferny grabs her wrist now and wants some truthiness from her. St Ferny loves his Discua! St Ferny is demanding an answer! He is acting very unsaintly like. Jess claims she knows nothink! St Ferny tells Jess that Discua is his one and only love. St Ferny is slowly slipping away from sainthood, cause now he has Jess by the throat demanding an answer. She finally fesses up this was all Rogue's idea as revenge and he sent the text. St. Ferny is breathing St. Elmo's fire! St Ferny can't beleive his own Bubby set him up and Jess tells him Rogue did this for his own good. St. Ferny says his Bubby will pay, and off he goes, with Jess chasing him!

TELEMUNDO Y MÁS -- week of May 27, 2013
Weekend Discussion: What do you want from the novelas you watch?
It's 2013 and we're watching remakes upon remakes, many of which are barely updated to take more modern attitudes into consideration. We see more bare flesh than in 1990, but hear no discussion of birth control. Abortion is still a taboo subject and we see very little about pedophilia.
We're still shocked, however, when a female character is raped and especially when she is particularly vulnerable, like Solecita in Corazon Indomable. We should be outraged, indeed.
What do you want to see? How do you want to feel after you see an episode?
I want to see more stories that consistently reflect current human reality. Women with education and confidence who aren't afraid to face the world on their own terms. Current attitudes about religion, class structure, education, and human behavior. What are real workplace dynamics?
Please, no comic relief in the middle of something violent, serious, and/or emotional. That is bad writing because it interferes with the emotional impact of the main events. It also makes the whole episode less memorable.
No sudden detours or about-faces; think out a story before committing it to the computer screen. El Fantasma de Elena could have been a great supernatural story about ghosts and werewolves if some writer hadn't decided three weeks into shooting that they needed to change this to a psycho twin story (though I do give them credit for a great final fate for the villana).
Be consistent with the period of the story. If you're going to have the characters get DNA tests to show kinship, why don't they have cell phones?
Rant away, amigos.

Qué Bonito Amor #29 (Mex 43-44.1) Thursday 5/23/13 Que Miedoso Crisis
Ruben claims he came to the house to talk to Amalia, not Maria. He apologizes to her. She doesn't seem to care for his apology, but offers him a drink. He hesitates before sitting on the couch and brushes it off with his hand before he does. Don't worry jackass…poor isn't contagious.
JAntos starts to tell Maria something, but is overcome and they get busted hugging by Colosso. He mocks her for forgiving him yet again and tells them both to hurry up and get ready for the first set.
Isa's friend still can't get her to wake up and goes running up the hill for help.
Ruben tries to tell Amalia he and Maria are just friends and he wants to support her professionally. Amalia's like, "Dude, you're married and she's young and hot. And the fact that you're now getting divorced means I want you even farther away from her! I don't want her being called a homewrecker on your account!" Even in the kitchen, Paloma's not buying Ruben's crap about how he and his wife just fell out of love or whatever. Poor Rebecca comes pounding on the door to tell them that Isa's been run over.
Ay Jalisco has a packed house and Colosso talks to everyone about the set list. He figures by the second set Maria and JAntos will have broken up again and will delight the audience by airing their grievances in song. He jokes that he'll sing last since JAntos said he only gets applause once JAntos has warmed up the audience for him. He tells El de la Ponytail to get the musicians on stage, but Susanito hasn't arrived yet. Colosso and JAntos have words once again about JAntos forgetting his place and not giving Colosso the respect he thinks he deserves. Yawn. A otra con ese cancion, Colosso, cause this girl is tired of hearing it!

Amores Verdaderos #137 Thu 5/23/13 Lunch with a Milkman and a Bodyguard
Ballsvanera Mansion Foyer: Arriaga is sitting in a chair patiently waiting for Victoria. When she emerges, whipped Arriaga leaps to his feet, commandeers her brief case and tosses it over his shoulder. As she gives him their itinerary for the day: office and lunch with Carlos, Adrianna runs into the foyer and tells her sister that she wants to talk to her about something important. Intent on keeping Arriaga at an employee/employer distance, Vicky informs her bodyguard that he will have to eat in the Meta Imagen cafeteria and orders him to wait in the truck for her. Once Arriaga exits, Adrianna gives Vicky the opportunity to share her news first; Adrianna's news will require her sister's undivided attention. Victoria tells Adrianna that she is having lunch with Carlos Gonzalez.
Ballsvanera Mansion Driveway: Disney Princess Lilly tells Arriaga that Guzman called her from New York. She's told him that Victoria's back and informed him of everything that's been going on in the Ballsvanera House.
Ballsvanera Mansion Foyer: Victoria tells Adrianna that Carlos asked about her. Adrianna tells Victoria that she got the director of photography job for Conny's movie and she's meeting him for dinner later. Victoria congratulates her sister.
Kendra's Apartment: KENDRA...HAS...ON...CLOTHES! It's a floor-lengthed night gown but, it's a good start. Kendra is b*tchin' at Nelson. He slept with her last night and doesn't understand what more she expects from him. She wants more of him; she wants him to be a father. Nelson is aware that Kendra only wanted him to stay with her because Vicky came home last night. Kendra doesn't deny it and accuses Nelson of being in love with his wife. Nelson won't leave his wife until he gets a bigger share Meta Imagen stock. After Nelson leaves, Kendra tells her stomach that she's tired of being knocked up and wishes the baby would come soon. She's sure that Nelson has lost interest in her because her belly is swollen. She wants the baby to come so it will take Nicky's place in his heart.

Corazon Indomable Capitulo 9 Thursday, May 23, 2013 Fun and Games Down at the Ranch; Not So Much Fun in the Woods.
This
episode follows two main narrative streams—the continuing “education” of
Maricruz at the ranch and the sudden shift in Solita’s life in the wild. This recap combines scenes for continuity. If I missed a detail you liked, jump in with
it.
Team Maricruz and Team Lucia square off in a battle over their turf.
- Gramps brings Monktavio to MC to make her happy. Meanwhile, human Octavio muses over their future and how to make a living. He considers leaving MC behind, with Gramps, while he finds work elsewhere.
- MC’s peaceful time propping her injured foot comes to an end when Lucia joins her on the lawn. Lucia shows MC the baby clothes she is creating, but their happy moment is interrupted when Monktavio flings himself at Lucia. Shrieking, she informs MC of her monkey allergy. The beast is banished to the bedroom forever!
- Octavio attempts to sell 10 cows to a neighboring rancher. Sad to say, the poor quality cattle aren’t worth buying, so no deal, no money for our chulito. He returns to the ranch to learn that he and MC are expected to turn out in some decent toggery for a formal lunch with the Riveras, old friends. MC protests, but Octavio insists. MC puts on a longer halter dress, similar to Lucia’s wardrobe. No word on where or how she got it.

PEAM # 54-5/23/13- Foolishness, Confusion and Where Is The Light???
Good evening all!
I’m not sure what is going on but for some reason my DVR decided to do its
own thing tonight. I usually watch
twice to get all of the details but tonight if I have left out anything feel
free to add it.
We begin at the hospital with Rogelio kissing Alma and she
thought bubbles to her kiss with Jesus.
The Ice Princess bids Valentina good night sans the list of “sterile
to -dos.”
Marsela and Elias try to bid Chatita good-bye but Chatita
detains them. What is she up
to??? Chatita plays mother to
Marisela and Marisela begs her not to tell Elias about her dad’s real job.
Jesus continues his bedtime story of the Helper and The
Princess. He tells her that the
Helper pretends to be the Prince because the Groom did not arrive in time to go
to the class with the Princess.
The Groom was asleep and missed the class. The Helper changed into a
Prince, and kissed the Princess. Valentina
wanted to hear more of the story but Jesus bid her goodnight.
Chatita plays her forgetful game and questions Elias about
his marriage situation. She wants
to know where he’s living since he is angry with Jesus and can’t stay at the
hotel because he doesn’t have any credit cards. If he wants to reconcile with his wife, why is he going out
with Marisela. Not a good idea!!!

Corazon Indomable #8 Wed. 5/22 A Cameo Guest Appearance, a Breakup and a Makeup
(I combined certain scenes for the purpose of a more flowing recap and continuity)
The Argument: The guest appearance? Why it’s none other than Paula Abdul portraying Maricruz at the party. Paula and Octavio are discussing what happened at the party in their bedroom. Octavio lays it down that he wants a divorce. Paula calls him a liar, that he said he cared about her and would care about her forever, but now wants a divorce. He says he doesn’t know if he ever cared for her or just pitied her.
Lucia interrupts the moment and insists on talking to Octavio. He comes out and she asks about Maricruz and if she can help. He replies that it’s all her fault for what has transpired, right down to the adorned dress, but the lying liar lies again, saying that MC asked for it to be altered. Meanwhile, Maricruz continues sobbing saying her mother had the same problem with a womanizing husband.

Qué Bonito Amor #28 (Mex 41.5-42) Wednesday 5/22/13 Patín de Diablo, Swings, and sneakers with lights
Scenes were re-arranged for continuity......
Elvira figures she's got it made and swears Maria will pay
for what she did years ago.
Meanwhile, Maria sits in her room and.....what else, cries
Los Battling
Bickersons
Ruben and Lorena battle over her failed plan. She's appalled he would dare mention Maria's
name in her home. She blames Maria for
ending their marriage. Ruben sees it differently;
they're the only ones to blame for the end of their marriage and warns her not
to go near Maria again. “Oh yeah? Who's gonna stop me? I'm capable of doing
anything to get that intruder out of our lives, you understand?” Ruben assures her that even if she were to
succeed in removing Maria from their lives, better yet even if Maria didn't exist,
he still wouldn't return to her. He
stopped loving her many years ago. It
would be best if they could just come to an agreement. Lorena swears she will never (jamás!)
grant him a divorce. She'll die
first.

Amores Verdaderos #136 Wed 5/22/13 This is only a test!
♫ Well I've got two lovers and I ain't ashamed ♪♪
While Vikki and her old flame, Carlos González, are getting reacquainted in the high-rise luxury apartment, the Big Angel is in his boss's studio, fussing over roses and candles, checking his tie in the mirror and fretting over the time. It's getting late. Where is the señora Victoria? He plays with a blank canvas on the easel and then seems to have an idea. Smiling broadly, he picks up a paint brush.
Vikki seems to let her guard down. She gives honest answers to Carlos's questions about her marriage and her family. Carlos is honest about at least one thing: he still resents Aníbal for the way he was treated twenty-five years ago. But not only does he lie about his work, he plays dumb: Adriana may be working with a Catalán film-maker named Joan Constantín. Do you know him? Nope, never heard of him.
Carlos takes Vikki's hand and stands very close to her. [Too close, buster. The Patio folks at the Arriaga table don't like this guy one bit.] It has been so many years and yet he trembles in her presence just as he used to do. Does she feel the same? Vikki ducks the question. She thought he'd never forgive her for not having the courage to chose him over Nelson Brizz. [Listen honey, he never has forgiven you!]

PEAM #53-5/22/13: On The First Day of Christmas My True Love Gave To Me: Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire???
Recap By Pablo
Dec. 14th.
This episode has been sponsored by Payaso Comforters and Edible Arrangements.
Staff in the Hospital Universitario de Monterrey didn't know what they were getting into when Rogelio Rivadeneira was taken to the ER. Of course, besides the clean room and the service, they needed to clear at least one floor for Avon employees, who, true to their slogan (you can leave Avon but you can never take Avon out of your heart) love to take Avon wherever they go, and they all just love to hang around in Hospitals (and Restaurants)!
Alma is there, she has the right as the girlfriend, but Jesús is also there (in a very bad moment to discuss about lies, sex and videotapes), Verónica gets there too, Fernando, Discua, Susana, Patricia, Elías, Melchor, Gaspar y Baltazar...

Qué Bonito Amor #27 (Mex 40-41.1) Tuesday 5/21/13
By Ellie
Capitulo
40: Maria bonita, Maria tan tonta
And
action!
Maria
is leaving the bar when out of nowhere a man with a knife comes at
her, but she's no helpless woman! She puts up one heck of a fight,
uses her suitcase as a weapon, and kicks as hard as she can. When she
ends up on the floor and things start to look bad Ruben makes an
appearance and scares off the would be killer, Maria only
suffers a mild ankle sprain and Viewerville lets out a sigh of
relief, I hope Rubens wife gets a refund from the attacker she hired!
Jorge,because
he is a wonderful boyfriend and lovely man makes up his mind to
find Maria and walk her home... only once he finally finds her she's
with Ruben who – like a vulture – refuses to leave the fresh
meat also known as Maria and insists on taking her home. Here
we get the same old argument between the three: Jorge wants Ruben to
hit the road, Ruben throws some shade at Jorge for being poor, and
Maria tries to get the two men to stop fighting. Good luck with that
sweetheart.

CI: Lucia’s Coming Out Party For Maricruz Is A Knock-Down, Drag-Out
Capítulo 7
Parte 1
As Viewerville returns poolside at the Narvaez hacienda, Octavio is complaining
to Lucia for putting together a party when she knows very well that Maricruz
has no idea how to behave in public. Lucia
sweetly suggests it would be good for her to learn and she’ll help Maricruz
prepare for her er… ‘entry into local society’.
Tav, as slack-jawed naive as Mari, believes Lucia’s sincerity act and
thanks her. After he leaves, Lucia tells
herself that she’ll help teach that upstart trash how to be worse and worse
each and every day there.

PEAM, Tuesday 5/21/13 (#52): Thanks, I Needed That
(Video here. This isn't the one I remember most vividly, but it's the best I could find.)
REWIND: Valentina asks Eli if it's true that he and Mommy are getting divorced.
Rogue's car runs out of gas, and he abandons it on the road. He doesn't pull off to the side of the road, mind you. He just leaves it on the-right-of-way while he and Patymelt hike to the nearest gas station, 1 km away. (Don't cry for them - that's less than one mile.) He lets Paty carry the gas can. (He'd better hope she doesn't have a lighter. She is fighting for him why, exactly? He is racking up a serious karma bill.) She points out that he has a sunburn on just one side of his face.
At the premarital counseling, Padre Diego wants Alma and Chucho to tell the group how they met. Chucho summarizes this entire telenovela so far, starting with the falling bucket in Episode Two. He reveals everything that's in his heart for Alma.
Alma sniffles as Chucho concludes his story. He says they eventually realized that they couldn't live without one another. Alma's nose turns pink. Their audience demands that they kiss. The priest roars his approval.
Embarrassed and relieved, Alma and Chucho rush back to their seats - but the padre isn't done with them yet. Now it's Alma's turn to explain why their love will endure. Alma says that... Rogelio... (it took her a moment to remember his name) is noble and loyal and would never betray her or lie to her. He's not selfish, he helps her whenever he can, and he's her best friend, offering unconditional friendship. He's sensitive and optimistic, always with a smile even at the worst of times, and always finding the bright side. She thanks God for that bucket and also for the patience her prometido has with her. She'll always trust him. It's hard enough to find someone with all these fine qualities who also loves you. If one of them falls down, the other picks him/her up. Always respectfully, with care and a smile. It is unconditional love. Our love is true and forever.
Thunderous applause. More praise from the padre.
Is it possible that Alma realizes that Chucho is the other half of her orange - and that Rogue is a lemon?

Qué Bonito Amor #26 (Mex 38.2-39) Monday 5/20/13
Capitulo
38.2: Pretense and Denial
Mendoza
Apartment: La vipora de Elvira enters the Mendoza apartment to
return the sombrero to Amalia along with her poisonous lie about
Jorge Alfredo spending the night with her. Maria – in a classic
case of bad timing – arrives just in time to hear this. Amalia
asks Elvira why she didn't return the sombrero to Jorge Alfredo and
gets the response that it is being returned “to its proper owner”
because something this elegant can't belong to someone who doesn't
value it. However, Amalia appears to have Elvira's number at least
in one way: She calls her on her lie, saying she recognizes her evil
intentions. She tells Elvira carefully that she is of low moral
character. Elvira pretends to be on some high horse, demanding to
know how Almira dares talk to her that way. Almira answers “the
same way you dare to come here to disturb the peace of this house.
Ge out of here and leave my daughter alone. Get out of here and
don't return if you don't want me to confront your parents and tell
them what sort of 'person' you really are.” Perhaps shocked that a
woman like Amalia has told her off so effectively the nasty bitch
departs saying “I'm going. This is like talking to a dog.”
Maria follows her out. Amalia doesn't like that and we don't either.

The drowning of Fernando continues with candles and hosannas. Pati prepares the potent potion for Roguey in a good glass of wine. Valentina shares her happiness at having spent some great playtime with her Papa Elias now that he is back. The mental giant in a mini girl body asks if PE and MamaBear are going to divorce. Mama nods yes.
Alma visits the poor hospital ward offering Panfilo a private hospital to better his care. He humbly says wait until tomorrow, his foot will probably be much better. There is no need for her to spend her money. She asks for a hug at least, which he gladly and generously grants calling her daughter.
Fernando begs for mercy but she calls on the cosmos and divine light to bless this dunking torture, I mean baptism. The enthusiastic acolytes keep him under so long and everyone gets scared then it gets scarier as he has disappeared when they try to pull him out. Everyone panics as we see Fernando's body cast over a small water way then hang prone and motionlessly in the water.
Paty presents her passionate potion as Roguey drinks enthusiastically, seems he only tastes the delicious wine.

Corazon Indomable, Capitulo 6 – Monday, 05/20/2013: After a Night of Passion and Wedded Bliss, a Morning-After Full of Unpleasantries
Recap by
LatinaInMD
It
looks like the writers selected this episode to fully test our “Eeewww-Meter.” We begin as Grandpa Ramiro leads Maricruz
away from the shack, with Solita and La India close behind them, but no
Moctavio in sight.
Eeewww #1 - Maricruz is still wearing the excessively torn
and grimy potato-sack dress she wore at her wedding, thrown over the nightie
she used on her wedding night, and very likely over the same underwear. (Guess gramps couldn’t borrow that
Quinceañera dress Maricruz requested, and her bell-sleeved dress must have been
too clean and white, too frilly and not torn enough, to pass muster as a
wedding dress.) Maricruz asks gramps if
he doesn’t love her anymore and wants her to go away never to return. He says no, but reminds her that she is now a
married woman and her husband is “the boss” and may get angry if he comes home
and doesn’t find her. Maricruz grudgingly agrees to return; hardly the attitude
of a blissful newlywed.
Back at the hacienda, Lucia tells
Ofelia she is pleased that Maricruz took off like a wild child, as this will
make it easier for her to “entangle her” in her intended schemes, so that Octavio
will have no choice but to dump her.
Riding their horses side-by-side at
a gentle trot, Octavio and Miguel seem more like buddies than feuding brothers. Octavio shares with Miguel that he knows not
what awaits him, but what he can “sincerely” tell him is that each day he feels
more attracted to Maricruz, to her sweetness and great love for him. He says he thinks she is the “ideal woman” to
be the mother of his children. Miguel
says what Octavio feels for Maricruz is pity.
Octavio says maybe so, but he can help her improve herself and teach her
good manners, and there’s a chance he will stay with her on the ranch and work
so both of their families can prosper. (Did
one night of passion transform El Chulito?!)

Amores Verdaderos #133 Fri 5/17/13 Some Gotta Win, Some Gotta Lose, Everybody's Got The Blues
Betty Delivers the Bad News to Her Mama Pau
We start this epi with Betty showing Pau the results of her pregancy test, that the low one raped her and how she broke up with Santino. Pau is beyond words, in fact, she is very upset. She doesn't want Betty to break up with Santino. She didn't like him at first but now feels he is a good guy for her. Betty also tells her about the phone call from the low one and that he's watching her and if he catches her with Santino, she'll never see Guillo again. Pau is really upset now and wants to tell Frankie. No telling Frankie, Betty says. He is going to see Nikki in Miami this evening, don't ruin that and whatever the Pau does, she is not to tell Frankie. Pau promises, but she isn't liking it. She'd rather Frankie knew about all this cause when he finds out he'll be pithed. Betty says she'll tell him eventually but right now he deserves some happiness.
The Foyer of the Balvanera Manse, Where All Pertinent Bidness Takes Place
Adri and the Angel are talking about his new duties as her bodyguard. They won't be much and he'll have lots of free time. Ms Vikki joins them and even suggests to the Angel that he can take some agronomy classes on line and get his degree. Who would have thunk? He can even use the computer in her study if he wants to. Well, it's never to late for a degree, and hey he can ask Santino about taking some security classes this way too. Awesome! Adri is sad that Ms Vikki is leaving tomorrow and wants to know when her flight leaves. Of course, here comes the FF being his nosey self and butts into the convo wanting to know what is this about Ms Vikki leaving. Ms Vikki tells him she is going to Buenos Aires and FF turns to the Angel and says he's lucky to be going to such an interesting country, provided if he has ever been out of the country before. Ms Vikki snaps on the FF and tells him Angel isn't coming with her. He wants to know if she is going, gasp** alone? She tells him it's none of his bidness. Adri pipes up that Angel is her bodyguard now, and Ms Vikki tells him she is going with her amante. Cara de impactado de FF! Same with Angel for that matter. He didn't see that coming!
