Qué Bonito Amor #119 (Mex 157) Friday 9/27/13 Is He A Sacrificial Lamb Or A Horse's Ass?

Well, It's clear that Matlock and Mason they ain't. Lawless and disorderly is more likely, but never having been in a courtroom myself, let alone having witnessed a federal criminal trial proceeding--such as this telenovela version claims to be--what do I know?

Mirna looks on
from a distance as Malo and sidekick handcuff Ruben and take him in for
questioning. He swears he’ll find out
who gave him up to the coppers and make them pay! She stares down at a photo, tenderly smooths
it and declares, “—I did it for you, totally for you.” (Baby Mommy alert for Isa!!)

Weekend Discussion: Classic Movie Remakes by Televisa, Third Edition
Since we have a
remake novela ending next week, it's time once again for the Televisa
Remake Game.
- Pick a classic movie, any genre. Title translation optional.
- Give your dream cast for the Televisa Remake you would produce. Actors currently under contract to Telemundo are also invited to the casting call. Although most or all character names would be changed into Spanish ones, use the original character names for clarity.
- Make note of any minor changes to setting, character relationships, etc.
- Comment on any previously posted project.
- New projects should occur at least every third post, but more frequently is good, too!
Last weekend I
was watching one of the best movie mysteries ever made which had it
all: Great sets, period costumes, dialogue, music, and an all-star
cast. I amused myself by imagining the following Televisa cast for
Murder on the Orient Express:

La Tempestad 44 – Thursday, 26 September 2013 – The Education of Damian Fabre or the Count of Mexi-Cristo
Gaol, The Classroom
Damian Fabre, who is reminding me a lot of Edmond Dantes,
has just finished his first reading assignment. Claudio is pacing the cell like
a good professor and Damian sits on the lower bunk in his cell, like a good
student. Damian tells Claudio that the book, Romeo and Juliet,
transported him back to those old times and that some things have not changed.
Couples still continue separating because of hatred and misunderstanding.
Claudio, who might be an Abbe Feria lookalike to Damian’s Edmond, hobbles over
to the bunk and sits down. Apparently he has a bad leg. He asks Damian, “Is
this your situation, Sailor?”
Damian says that the comparison between himself and Romeo is
not exact but has similarities. He thanks Claudio for having him read the book.
Claudio asks Damian if the book cause him to sail away and then, when Damian
smiles in assent Claudio waxes poetic about this being the first of many books
Damian can read. “Good wind and better seas,” Claudio pronounces the blessing
with a chuckle. He now offers to begin the Education of Damian and he will pick
the books. Claudio notes that he and Damian share a profound depression or melancholy,
and the way to treat the depression is to come to know oneself. Damian will
learn much from his studies.
The Kiss – Rebeca and
Jose
The hot kiss between Rebeca and Jose is shown again.
Whooeee. Jose parrots Rebeca’s words back to her, “A kiss is just a kiss.” They
part but Rebeca looks all shook up.
Marina is Sad
Marina is crying on the steps of the house. She wishes she
had gone after Damian and at least talked to him. Beatriz, whom I find very
hard to like, tells her that love never really goes away. She knows that after
all these years she still loves Marina’s father. But Marina has to accept that
Damian has hurt her in a very cruel way. Bea opines that Damian’s love was not
as grand as he claimed. Marina cannot understand; one minute Damian loved her
and the next he didn’t. She needs to understand and to have some peace. Only
Damian can take the thorn from her heart by telling her the truth.

Qué Bonito Amor #118 (Mex 156) Thursday 9/26/13 Que Inútil Día de Investigaciones
Paloma lets herself get talked into a frappé. I can understand that. I'm a fan of the frozen beverage. Frappuccino. Smoothie. Margarita.
Milamores is called on to testify to Santos' good character. The prosecutor calls him on the lack of proof, which is apparently only required of the defense and not the prosecution. Milamores brings up the incarceration of his father for over 30 years without trial as proof of the US's crappy justice system. Of course, the prosecutor objects to this. Milamores calls for the immediate release of his father and Santos, both. The judge tells everyone to STFU, go home, cool off, and be prepared to behave like adults when they start the trial back up again or he'll kick everyone out.
OG is hanging out in Maria's new place. Gross! Don't touch the traje! You'll stain it with your grossness! He takes video of himself sniffing the traje as he taunts Santos that he's in Maria's room and if Santos doesn't declare himself guilty, OG will rape Maria. Not in so many words, but we all know that's what he means. He reminds Santos that he's being watched, so he'd better not do anything stupid.
Mirna is shocked to find out Ruben is planning to close down the bar as his revenge. He wants the mariachis out on the street. Not Mirna, though, he'll find a job for her. Mirna asks for compensation, from losing her job at the bar, I presume. Elvira walks in on them getting a little frisky and demands to know QTH is going on.

CI Capítulo 98 9-26-13 There’s a New Real Estate Development in the Works: Rancho Realengo
Recapper La Paloma weeps softly. She already
attended a morning meeting with 300 retired government workers and made a quick
afternoon trip out of town for business. Returning home, she had hopes of recapping
a thrilling episode. Alas, an endless series of dull conversations fill the
screen in a mind-numbing rotation of all talk, no action. Only a little hot canoodling
at the end and the introduction of a new character repay the time spent by Viewerville
this evening.
What We Saw
Before
One great moment was MariCruz saying “I think I’m going crazy!” We heard a ripple of reaction from Viewerville here, but no united agreement. She wants to see Simona’s face reacting to the land giveaway.
We also see Simona telling Octavio the news of the upcoming baby. Things will be different with this baby, compared to the baby that She Who Must Not Be Named won’t allow him to see.
JA tells Ester that they’ll all go to live at MC’s ranch. Hasn’t she heard the news of the relocation of the Realengo folk? Maybe not, since she doesn’t hang out with the neighbors so much.

A Long String of
Conversations in Short Summaries
- · Mig and Tav—Tav couldn’t say no to group expectations and MC pressure when she announced he’d match her donation of 5 hectares of land. Mig is angry MC is trashing their old ranch and he tells Tav not to let Simona find out. The bros will never forgive MC for her cavalier attitude toward their family land.
- · Ester wonders what will happen when Simona finds out about all this.
- · JA warns MC she’ll find out how bad the Realengo scum are. (His attitude is incomprehensible, but that fits with this TN.) She doesn’t know why she got carried away and thinks she needs to talk to Padre Julian.
- · Simona tells Miguel that Ofelia will testify in his behalf concerning Eusebio’s killing.
- · Navario (twinsebio) is telling Lina’s drunk daddy that his letter to the rich lady didn’t work, so maybe he’ll contact Miguel Narvaez directly. He has a bottle in his hand.

PEAM #143- One is Having a Baby, One Doesn't Want a Baby and One is Having a Baby and Doesn't Believe It. Oh, and a Disciple Has Been Elevated!
Happy Thursday, the weekend is almost here!!
The past-
Jesus snatches up DeMonica (Vero) and asks her where is
Alma??? DeMonica denies knowing anything.
Officer Delia calls Jesus and tells him that Alma s on her way to the
hospital and she is alive.
DeMonica starts arguing with Rogue for giving Jesus the idea
that she had something to do with Alma’s disappearance. Rogue says that her plan is stupid but
DeMonica lets him know that if she sinks he goes down with her.

Corazon Indomable # 98 The Magic Dimples Work Like Magic
Miguel tells Octavio he wants to turn himself in now because he only has a son to live for, and I guess that’s not enough. Miguelito sure got in the wrong line when they were handing out parents. Octavio tries to convince him to let him help. Miguel agrees that the reason he’s in trouble to begin with is because Octavio brought that woman to their home. What Octavio should have said was; just because I brought her to our home, it didn’t give you the right to mistreat her like you did. She was my wife and your wife was terrible with her, and you continually backed Lucia up when I defended her. No one deserved to be treated that way, and you both deserve what’s coming to you now. But instead, Octavio really said; you’re right, it is my fault so that’s why I want to help you now.

La Tempestad, September 25, 2012. Capitulo 43.
Guess my DVR didn't record
right, so I think I missed the first
minute or so...
Mercedes and friends are
driving down the streets looking for Magdalena.
Marina tells Hernan that she
doesn't understand what he's trying to say.
Hernan will clarify for her. He
knows she was deeply affected with everything that happened with DamFab. He admires her courage and regrets getting in
the way of her and DamFab's love, but the love that he feels for her is too
strong (umm, it's more like an obsession really).
DamFab is led to his cell
where he encounters his new cellmate, Claudio (Rene Casados). Claudio puts on his tough guy face and says
so your by new roommate? Well, let me
tell you there are rules here. DamFab
says there is no need for that. I am not
looking for trouble. Just tell me where
my bed is. Claudio says the top is
mine. Suddenly some troublemakers come
in and Claudio reminds them that he is not going to give them anything. He doesn't need any protection. The leader (who I will call UglyTatFace until
I find out his name) reminds him that everyone needs protection. DamFab tells UglyTatFace that he doesn't want
any trouble.

PEAM #142-9/25/13: Another Wedding Ruined By A Pearl Necklace (and a Little Help From Veronica) Wink!!!
Recap By Pablo
My wink-o-meter was spinning like crazy!! Like me, covering all the weddings!!
I got good news and bad news!
Discua got out of jail. And well... one could think that being in the path of light and under the microscope of the Universe, subject of its protection, nothing harmful would come our way, right? Wrong! That is not true. See? Discua has cancer, and no reiki or spheric meditations visualizing the tantric triangle had helped her in any way...maybe she is going through a faithless phase. The solution? Go and die, I mean, meditate at the top of a mountain in Tibet with the Buddhists. Maybe her xylophonic winking won't bother them. Or maybe they will think there is a singing bowl!! In her butt!
It's a mad, mad world
Ricardo is now her brother of light, and Remigio one of the security guards. Where did he learn how to run after suspects? Well... Melchor couldn't run to save his life either! He could roll, though. This proves that ANYBODY, anybody can work at Avon, experience not required.
The key word is reciprocation
How can I describe América and 3bal Monterrey at Valentina's party with one word? Annoying!
How can I describe Alma's huuuge cleavage with one word? Impossible, I need two! And big ones! Mmm, like a double breast chicken! That Queen's outfit was from another queen a little smaller!
And just to make sure this party was doomed like the first one, thanks to her, even when she blames Jesús, Verónica came to see Valentina and to make everyone uncomfortable . I wish Jesús could have called the police on her but he said he didn't want to ruin Vale's party and he did from tripe heart (Hizo de tripas corazón)

Qué Bonito Amor #116 (Mex 154) Tuesday 9/24/13 Time to face the music
Ladies- Parts one and two are up
I'm going to do this in two parts, first what's going on in Mexico and then the happenings in El Lay, that way I won't have to jump back and forward.
In Mexico Amalia and the girls are out on the street, Aaron offers Paloma a place to keep their furniture, everyone is devastated by being kicked out of their homes (see, this is why sometimes it's better to own, rather than rent), Mancia has taken to the streets and is trying to make extra money by reading peoples fortunes using the tarot cards, she tells Irasema that a card keeps coming up and it bothers her because it means nothing good is on the horizon, Irasema tells her that the last thing they need is more bad luck.
Vanessa and Aaron are discussing Paloma's woes and Aaron tells Vanessa not to make fun of Palomas situation, then he confesses that he really digs Paloma and wants to be with her, even if it means that he loses the bet he made with Vanessa. I like this kid.

La Tempestad Cap #42. September 24th 2013. DamFab Gets A Much Needed DamHaircut At The Prison
Mexico City
EstherHada asks Ernie if he's sure that he wants to marry her. Ernie says of course I do. You are going to give me my primogenito (first born). Macario, who looks like Powder with a horrible looking wig, congratulates the nauseating couple. He's sure that their child will bring happiness to their lives. He tells EstherHada that he's sure that in these circumstances Ernie would give his life for EstherHada. The Patio isn't so sure about that one, Macario. Ernie wants to make a toast, but Powder err I mean Macario doesn't think its prudent that EstherHada be drinking given the circumstance. But Ernie, who is not father of the year material, says let her do it for this occasion. It is not everyday that you have a bun in the oven. They all toast to Ernie's future wife and first born. Gag!
Back in R-Laydee
The commotion continues. DamFab makes a DamSpeech. He wants everyone to be calm. Crew wants to be taken into custody with DamFab. One for all and all for one like The Three Musketeers. You gotta love these guys. They are so loyal to DamFab and care about him so much. He's DamLucky to have friends like these. Anyway, DamFab doesn't want them to resort to violence to free him because it could cause problems for them. He assures them that all will be well. DamFab is being taken away. Marina yells to the judge that DamFab is innocent and asks for DamFab to be released. Judge says that DamFab was tried according to the law and there isn't anything he can do. Fulgencio takes this opportunity to call DamFab a murderer and mentions that crap about the owner of sailboat having seen DamFab put the explosives on the sailboat. Mercedes yells at Fulgencio that all that is a lie. She will find the proof to prove it. Fulgencio asks her where the proof is. Mercedes says that unfortunately she lost the original documents but she will get them. Oso mentions how someone tried to drive them off the road to prevent Mercedes from showing the proof to the court. Fulgencio says that without that proof, if it does indeed exist, there isn't anything they can do. DamFab will have to serve his sentence. Which reminds me, they never did say what that sentence would be. 20 años maybe? It is always 20 años in novela land. DamFab and Fulgencio stare at each other. DamFab gives Fulgencio a if looks could kill stare. Jose tells Fulgencio that they'll appeal. Fulgencio shows Jose his hand as if telling him talk to the hand dude. Mercedes tells DamFab that they are all there for him. DamFab asks them to calm down. Mercedes says that they won't let them lock him up. DamFab tells them that they'll have to accept it. They can't go against the law to help him. There are other ways that they can help him. He knows that they'll find a way to free him. He is taken away. Before exiting, he stares at Marina who is in tears. He leaves. Hernan slithers his way over to Marina and tells her to be strong. Marina says that DamFab was found DamGuilty while there are a lot people like her that know that he's DamInnocent. Marina thoughtbubbles that she doesn't want to lose DamFab despite him having hurt her.

Corazon Indomable # 96, 09/24/13, The curse of love...
....is only worse than the curse of watching this.
I was the one to recap Tav's first wedding, too, some 90 episodes ago. What an honor, really, may this new marriage be as happy as his last one. If he gets a number three, could I have that one, too? I'm getting good at this.
Sweet, romantic music,
and the green mountains of Tamaulipas start the show.
On the bridge
Tav is holding Mari in
his arms and asking her why she’s sometimes so lovable and others such a raging
bitch (that’s how I heard it).
This is just what
Mari needed to pull out of the embrace and remind Tav (and the two viewers
who had probably forgotten this detail) that she hates the Narvaez, doesn’t
need his pity and he will end up hating her as much as she hates him.
But Tav is in
protagonista mode, grabs her by the waist, reminds her that she seemed to enjoy
the kiss they just shared.
Well, so did he, slave
of his passions, Mari mocks him and declares that they are both cursed to feel
a guilty love. She loves him with locura, but he leaves because it’s his
wedding day and he doesn’t want to see her ever again.
As he rides off on his
horse, she screams at him about being bought by Simona and how she pities the
woman – but once she is alone, she starts to cry, because she’s the one to pity
the most in this story and she knows it.
Tav doesn’t go
straight to his wedding, he stops near a tree to think about the kiss he and
Mari shared. He’s sure she’s only playing with him, as part of her venganza,
because she surely hates him. But he’ll marry Simona, who proved to be a good
woman, he won’t disappoint her.

La Tempestad Capitulo 41, Monday Sept 23, 2013 - The Miseries of Mercy
It’s recapper musical chairs night tonight at The Patio. I am recapping tonight’s episode and Gloria has kindly agreed to take Wednesday for me so I can entertain my out-of-town guests all week. Thanks Gloria!
From Friday - The Trial (A big nod to Novela Maven)
Let’s return to The Trial, where Damian knows exactly of what he is accused, though falsely. The Port Captain confirms that Marina urged the PC to request an emergency return for Damian, only to find out said “emergency” was merely a squeeze, a snuggle and vow of eternal togetherness. (The Patio notices the PC is on a first-name basis with Fulgencio and cries of “No Fair!!” ring out.) Fully asks if at any time Dam said he would return with Estercita, Nopis, or at least the PC never heard Dam say it. In other news Robles wakes up, his death was all a ruse. EsterHada angles for a ruby ring for which she will repay her sugar daddy dearly.
Tonight (Scenes mostly in order)
Over in the DF that DamHeli is finally ready for takeoff. Sheesh! ‘Bout time. But don’t breathe a sigh of relief for Mercedes yet...
There is another courtroom recess and the crowd ambles outside. Marina tells Team DamFab that she’s sticking around to support Dam even though the town gives her a hard time. Eusebia thinks Marina is brave and is sure that Dam’s innocence will be proved. Hernan enjoys being negative, “so much proof against Damian Fabre”, and Tia B enjoys getting in Hernan’s face to point out all Fully’s proof is so much hogwash.

PEAM #140 - 09/23/13 - Baby, Baby, Baby-Oh…
My heart-felt thanks to TabletJefa, Pablo, and Madelaine for performing extra special duty to take my Monday episodes for the past three weeks! Yes, Italy and France were storybook wonderful but more on that later. Okay, just one beautiful Mérens stallion in France...
Now how about those Avonites? Yeah, I get to take up the pick and shovel, er, I mean laptop and a glass of lovely red wine waiting as a reward at the end of the hour - now it wouldn't do to watch this under the influence, would it? So let's see who has been naughty and who has been nice…
Alma and Pato plan the surprise announcement for Jesús, Jesica and her Cardenas as she fondles his bowling ball head, they sweet talk instead of working. Xochi and Pato greet and at least Pato works, answering the phone with Discua on the other end. She tells Pato of her arrest which she is sure has that roguish Rogelio behind the plot. Rogelio demands that Susana tell Fernando he needs to speak to him immediately. He falls into his office and finds delight in the newspaper condemning Discua for fraud and illegal or at least inexplicable gain of unbelievable sums of money.

Corazon Indomable #95, 9/23/2013: Lucia Passes the Venganza Torch, After Becoming One Herself
A lot happened tonight, so let’s skip the old stuff and get
right to the new.
We start the evening seeing Mari walking through her land, accompanied by one of her workers. She mentions that the work they are doing will benefit many people. Are those buckets we see in the hands of the workers in the background? Are they actually PICKING the oranges? Mari takes Jose Antonio off to attend other matters with her, as Nazario, aka Twinsebio, skulks into view and thought bubbles that Mari must have a thing for her capataz.

Mari takes Jose Antonio off to attend other matters with her, as Nazario, aka Twinsebio, skulks into view and thought bubbles that Mari must have a thing for her capataz.
We teleport to Isla Dorada, where Miguel is greeting Lucia
and Mini Miggy happily. Lucia decided to surprise him by not letting him know
she was coming back so soon. They’re not just here for a visit, but to stay. In
any case, they no longer have a home to return to in Tamaulipas. Plus, Lucia
informs Miguel, Ewsebio’s brother has popped up, looking to settle scores for
his brother’s death. Miguel looks confuddled by this news.
It’s nighttime in the countryside, but our protagonists are not
having a peaceful night of sleep. Mari tosses and turns, and then finally gives
up. She laments being all alone, and doesn’t think she can go on. Her loneliness
can only be ended by HIM—her obsession and her torment (martirio). Meanwhile, the HIM of which Mari speaks, is
also wide awake and assuming Mari is sleeping peacefully. He wishes he had her
in his arms to end this anguish. “Maricruz. My Maricruz.” He remembers asking
her if there is any hope for them to get back together, and Mari telling him
never. He asks himself why they can’t be together.
Morning breaks, and JA and Mari enter her office. He is
heaping praise on her for the good work she’s doing for the poor people of
Realengo. They are all grateful. (I didn’t see JA heaping any praise on his
wife when she tried to do the same things, with no money. In fact, I remember
him being an ass about her clothing, feeding and caring for Lina, and scoffing
at her desire to teach the children of Realengo.) Mari modestly deflects the
praise. She wants to get the kids of Realengo clothes, games, cookies and
candy. She smiles happily, all dimples and teeth, feeling high on her good
works. (See Mari. Isn’t this way more fun than your vengeance plots that
all end with you in tears?)
