Lo Que la Vida Me Robó Lunes 2/3/14 #60



Chapter 60: Unholy Deadlock

Almonte Manor: Lord Alejandro told the good Father Anselmo that Lady Monserrat married him only for his wealth, then attempted to abandoned him for her lover, whom she had housed on his estate. He did not believe her explanations. Father Anselmo attempted to force him to listen to reason regarding his lady wife and forthcoming child. He did finally tell him that he is being stubborn and should think about these matters as the backwash could be dire.

Mentir Para Vivir #83 Mon 2/3/14 The kidnapper was wearing heels and had highlights

This is going to be a short recap, unfortunately. I'm terribly sleepy and a difficult day awaits me tomorrow. Besides, nothing important really happened.
...
Later edit: 3 hours of sleep later.... I'm up, starting my day. I should be out the door right about now, but I remembered I had forgotten to add the date to the recap title, so ... here I am (The the "Being a recaper" Files)

Homero is explaining to the judge who Ines Valdivia and Francisco Castro truly are. The two go way back, Homero knows all about the judge's dirty laundry and isn't above blackamiling him. The judge agrees not to investigate Mariloca’s accusation about the fake identities, but the little girl will have to go to an orphanage.

On the phone with Sam, JL is upset because he can’t talk with Joaquin; also, why does he have to be spied on by John, the new “Mike”? Sam asks JL to deal with it and Oriana hears part of the fight and asks JL what is going on. He says that getting out of the business is not as easy as he thought and now he has someone watching his every move, too.

Lila, Mady and Tony, or the Trio of the Greedy, talk about the investment in the new Real Estate Business. Even if Ric doesn’t want the association to happen, Tony thinks it would serve both he and Paloma right, for the way they always treated Mady and Lila. Francisco Castro becoming an associate at Aresti Breton is the perfect revenge. Lila and then Mady shake on it and get ready to sign the contract.

Alina is enjoying a bunch of presents in her room with Oriana, until Jose Luis shows up; the child’s attitude changes, so JL leaves the room. Alina says that she wants to go back home, she misses Fabi, Tito and a bunch of other people that I believe are the servants.

Lo que la vida me robo, Cap 59, 1-31-14—That Maria strikes again. An Anvil Cannot Come too soon.

Preview screencap:

Don't you listen to Bitch Maria, Ale!

WRITTEN ON THE FLY (Sort of). Please forgive errors. I do a lot of condensing and jumping around here, so it's sort of in summary format.

We have a refrito. Monse talks with a uniform-clad JL about what's going on. Ale hasn't forgiven her, blah de blah. She wishes JL well in his wedding. He tells her that the only woman he'll ever love is her, but he's very fond of Angelica. They have a bittersweet parting. She tells JL to send her love to Angel. He will. He looks sad.

Mentir Para Vivir #82 Fri 1/31/14 Hiding in Plain Sight


capítulo 82 

Lo Del Pasado:

Mad Malibu de Marilu has spitefully just opened the ID theft/false identity can of worms that everyone else had been hoping to avoid during this entire adoption farce.  Hopefully she will be eventually taken to the woodshed by none other than Joaquin Barrago himself!  Ricardo wants to slap the stupid b!tch silly and fights to keep his cool as she gives the judge the skinny on the Falcon/Caligaris name change and marital connection.

Lo Del Nuevo:

The judge realizes that Ric and ML are not the sweet, sensible, loving newlyweds they’d pawned themselves off as earlier.  According to Mala-boo Marilu, Ric and 2nes are lovers; 2nes is a criminal and a home-wrecker; and she’s still married to another crook who also is using a false identity: Sr. Francisco Castro!  The judge decides that while he investigates the situation further, Alina will have to be sent for her own welfare into the state foster system [casa hogar=orphanage], which will be a fate worse than death, apparently, for Oriana and little Lina, not to mention Paloma.  Once the interview with the judge is finished, Ric tells Marilu that he’s starting divorce proceedings the next day first thing and she and her crutches can find their own way back to Fidelia’s.  He heads over to Paloma’s to give Oriana the bad news.

Que Pobres tan Ricos # 20 31 Jan 2014 Nepo looking forward to his date with Lupe, but at fonda, the sh... has hit the f..... Salvese quien pueda!! (TAKE COVER!!!)

A-hole/Mini argue about he wants a baby RIGHT NOW! And she is not anxiously anticipating that.


Emi and Grandma Mati were playing dominos, he keeps losing, ‘gambling debts are honor debts’. Tizoc calls him to go do homework. Emi leaves. Leo comes in dramatically (OMG!!! You would not believe the trauma I just went through! I got mugged!!) Tizoc undermines his experience. Leo says he was about to be bleeding to death. Then he undermines the barrio/neighborhood. Tizoc says if you know how to defend yourself nothing would happen to you around here. Leo says if you mean being a boxer or gorilla, that is far from my idea of a man. ‘my friend’. Tizoc begins rapping to him with sound effects. From now on you are my friend. Leo is nodding in rhythm… You are Leonardo el princeso!! (the prince). Leo does not appreciate the joke. And calls Tizoc naco. Grandma Mati enjoys the show. Laughs her butt off.

Back to Cabo San Lucas. She is trying to convince him to tune it down a couple notches (like Frida told her mom a while back). He reluctantly tells her about the grandpa clause. ‘el primer nieto que tenga un hijo en legitimo matrimonio’ and I plan to be the heir of the RP empire, to share with you ‘chiquita’. She says you should have told me earlier. Then she is biting her teeth as he continues reassuring her she will be pregnanty by the end of the honeymoon.

Weekend Discussion: Controlling Mothers, Part II

Maternal Monsters, Part II

There are way more of these than perhaps any other female villain because they can play so many cards in the game of control. Guilt, money, religion; even sex isn't exempt from their repertoire in their attempts to control their teen or adult children. I was hoping to compile another Dirty Dozen, but some of these are so spectacularly evil it just couldn't wait. Please provide any more details if you can.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo - Capitulo 58—Aftermath of a Funeral

 
“What we have got here is failure to communicate.”
                                    Cool Hand Luke - 1967

Editorial By Elna june
 
There has been much discussion in the last few days about the nature and character of certain of our players in ‘Lo Que La Vida Me Robo’. I say that what we have got here is a failure to communicate. And I stand by my statement—Let me explain.

The writers in this telenovela have, by and large, done a great job. The acting, production values and dialogue are first rate, and the pace sometimes makes me feel like I am watching a telenovela directed by Paul Greengrass.

What we, as faithful watchers of “Robo’ need to have communicated to us now is character development, especially of the protagonist, Alejandro Almonte. In the last few days, culminating with the terrible death of Lauro Mendoza, I find that I have completely ceased to care about the anti-galan Alejandro. I am no longer angry with him, as I was at times earlier in our story, I am, quite simply, BORED with his character.

And a bored viewer cannot be a good thing, my friends. If the writers have taken a darker direction with this telenovela protagonist, such as we have seen in recent American primetime dramas with Tony Soprano in “The Sopranos” and Walter White in “Breaking Bad”, or, in more classical theatre with Shakespeare in “Macbeth”, then we viewers can know that we are watching, fascinated, as the proverbial train wrecks. Let Ale go to the devil and serve us up some new options for Montserrat. She can practice being a single mother—that storyline has many interesting possibilities.

The tension created by Alejandro Almonte’s cruel actions has left us viewers in a state of cognitive dissonance that is downright uncomfortable. Why is he behaving like such a jerk? We choose up tables, we look for hidden clues in his dialogue and personal history, we try to cling to Alejandro’s ‘right to be angry’ as a reason for his cruel actions and words. But so far his story rings hollow and  his personality unlikeable.

Que Pobres Tan Ricos #19-1/30/14 : AS Has a Very Bad Hair Day and Other Follies



Hola Amiguis! This capitulo was a tough one with all the slang and speed. This recap will not be in order and please let me know what I got wrong. I am still learning Y'all as you are : )

JT and Frida are still having their little chat. He even invites her to come hear his band sometime, but I don't think she wants to venture into the neighborhood. He imitates her "fresa speak".

AS is wearing that lovely, er, hideous scarf and Granny Mati hands her a mirror so she can see how loverly she looks, Not! AS is just abhorred! Leo remarks she needs a hat (in English) then says in Spanish it is a sombrero. Lupe serves Granny Mati some chicken soup, ya know they just gently killed that chicken. MA is going to show off his waiter talents he learned in Londres. He is going to serve his family. Lupe tells AS all about the neighborhood hairdresser, ya know, Guendy, but AS doesn't trust anyone from the 'hood to be touching her curly locks.

MA serves his family, that would be AS and Leo, Frida is still off talking to JT. MA serves and says basically here ya go MiLady and MiLord, things he learned in Londres, with a towel over his arm and the tray over the same arm, think Moseley in Downton Abby. Don Chuy thinks that's a hoot. MA even says he will serve Don Chuy and it will be an honor.

Mentir Para Vivir #81 Thu 1/30/14 Acusar para Arruinar

Fidelia gives Marilu a hard time, asking if she's still drunk from last night, but Inésiana is more than willing to get down on her knees, if that's what it takes to get her daughter back.  Fidelia stops her from doing it and threatens to tell the judge that Marilu is a drunk.  Marilu says that she's got plenty of things to tell the judge herself.  Fidelia tells Inésiana that she has no idea what happened to Marilu and wonders if someone can really go crazy from one day to the next.

Once Inésiana is gone, Fidelia calls Ric to report on Marilu.  She's worried that if Marilu doesn't get what she wants, she might start to take things out on Alina.  Pobre de Fidelia, first Maria, then Sebastian, and now Marilu. She thinks maybe they ought to call either Mariano or Dr. Veronese to exorcise the demon or medicate her.  Or maybe both.  Piero tells Ric that he saw Marilu last night in a bar drinking with some guy and that in her inebriated state, she told him that Inésiana can take the kid, but she wants to keep Ric.  Piero still has the guy's card.

Por siempre mi amor #40 1/29/14: The Evil Seed Is Planted

For J Desde NYC- Feel better!

Art is asking Za about deceiving Esteban will Favier. Za denies it. (She has that whiny pitch in her voice just like Sucia). Ara says that Facier made her realize that she doesn't feel anything for Esteban. He is too immature. Once again with the perdonames. Art asks Ara not to continue lying and Ara promises not to do it again.  Isa was not too happy that Ara wasn't with Daphne and Ara was not too happy that Isa brought it to his attention. She's going to pay. (What else is new?)

At the love nest
Sucia and Favier discuss how Ara loved the dog and Sucia marvels at how no one know that the dog was her suggestion.  She asked if he had spoken to his contact at the prison and he lied and said that he was on vacation, he wants to put Fernando to in the past he doesn't want her to know the truth about Feo. Favier is calling Methusulah about getting some candidates for the chauffeur's job for Isa. 

At Art and Isa's
Ara approaches Daphne about blowing her cover, and Daphe says that it couldn't be helped.  She was waiting outside for her and rang the bell and Art saw her but it won't happen again. (Yeah right) then Daphne goes into her rant about how that nosey Isa is going to pay dearly. (Ara is already paying by living with you for the last 10 years)

At Andrea and Mau's
A tearful Andrea is comforted by Esteban and tells MeanMinnie about Angel finding out the truth about his sperm donor. Minnie was worried about Feo's name being called but what does it matter, he's "dead".  Angel went to the movies with Mau and he is glad that Mau is his dad, he wouldn't have it any other way.

At Methusulah's Office (and why does this man even have office space?)
The Evil Duo pay Meth to hire a chauffeur for Isa, someone intelligent because they want to be kept informed of everything that is going on regarding Isa and Art. (What a powerful anvil drop that will be)

Art and Isa's
Daphe comes down to dinner and art asks for Ara.  She wasn't hungry and is not feeling well. She's upset that Isa got her in trouble. Isa is taken aback , Daphne doesn't understand why she  Ara doesn't like Isa and Art wants to know if Daphne's parents are aware that she is there. Since they don't she needs to give them a call and leave a message. They need to know her whereabouts.  Daphne pits in her jabs about Aea is lucky to have a father and stepmother who care about her and that Ara doesn't appreciate them. Art and Isa share uncomfortable looks.  Isa gets a text- Hello Beautiful. Oh no, it's from Feo and she starts having palpitations. Art feels bad for Daphne but Isa shares the text from Feo that she just received.  Art is sure that it's a wrong number and he will call it. Favier is pleased that Isa reacted to his text and he plans on driving her crazy ( pushing her past her limits). He will Mae her life miserable as Feo's ghost.

At Gaby's Apartment or should I say the smack down ring
Ally shows up at Gaby's door.  Gaby wasn't expecting company and Ally says that they ends to talk. Gaby says that she has nothing to say, she hasn't seen Bruno for years (Gaby, you knew that this wasn't a social call, so why did you invite Ally and furthermore why does she have a coffee cup?). Ally brings up that Gaby still has a picture of she and Bruno. She and Gaby are similar in their lifestyles how they act.She asks Bruno why did he chose her, what attracted him to her? She found out her answers when she got to know Gaby.  Bruno still loves Gaby. (Why doesn't Ally have this convo with Bruno? Gaby did nothing to encourage him).  Gaby doesn't believe her. Why would he get married then, Gaby defends Bruno.
She herself is an honest, forthright woman and perhaps Ally doesn't know Bruno as well,as she thinks that she does. Then we go back and forth as to know knows Bruno. Gaby let's Ally know that she broke Bruno's heart due to fear and just being plain stupid, I didn't see that I had a good thing in front of me.  Ally agrees that he came to Spain very hurt.  Gaby regrets it but it's useless.  Bruno moved to the otherwise of the world to get over her.  Gaby tells Ally that she has nothing to worry about the love story between she and Bruno is over. Hmmmmm- Gaby, viewer vile will strongly disagree with you!

In the Hood
Dante is trying to rent an apartment from Agatha.  There is an available apartment and Dante will handle the paperwork. Then he asks for that young cutie that came around looking for her. Gema(La mas facil). He didn't know that she was her stepdaughter.  When she comes around again Agatha find out when she is coming around again and she will introduce her to him. Bleck!

At the love nest
Favier enters with a key and tells Sucia that Wilson told him that the coast was clear. Ole Sugar Daddy  - OSD is not around.  Sucia gets a call from OSD, he is asking about someone who she ran over -he has two broken knees and some serious bumps on his legs. OSD asks if he was hospitalized? Yes for observation? OSD will handle the costs, send him the bills,oh and he was going to sue, but thanks to Sucia, she encouraged him not to.  OSD feels so much better.  He will send over a messaging with a check. He is not coming, he doesn't want to be seen, and he doesn't want anyone to have anything against him. He said that he is not going to sue but he can be ill advised and proceed with the lawsuit.

At Art and Isa's 
Isa is very upset over the text, Art tries to calm her down and jokes that the intended person for the text will never receive it.  Calm down, Isa, Feo is"dead".  She has to calm down for the sake of the baby. Art and Isa share a little pillow talk.  She feels safe I his arms. Goodnight.zzzzzz

At Tita's
Bruno asks Ally, where was she.  They were worried about her. She didn't think that Bruno would notice because at times she seems to be a bother to him. She directly ask Bruno- what's in your head?  Bruno promises to work on making there marriage a happy one.

At the university
Ileana can't understand why Ara would break up with Esteban. He is the perfect boyfriend that loves her and they have known each other since they were kids. Why would she leave him for a man that she just met.  Ara can't explain it but she feels something fast and furious for Javier.  Daphe interrupts and tells Ileana not to critique what she doesn't know and Ileana 
is bothered that her friend drops a wonderful man for someone that she just met.  Daphne tells Ileana how Esteban went to Ara's house and how he treated her. Ileana suspects that Daphne is exaggerating.  Cristian feels bad for Esteban and the break up but suggests that maybe Ara didn't feel the same way that Este felt for her.  Este was so jealous and feels bad about the way that he reacted. Este figures out that it's Javier.
Este tries to talk to Ara who resists. She tells Este to forget about her, her hurt her and she does not trust him.  Este is begging Ara to give him another chance. She won't budge.

At work
Art and Bruno are discussing why Ara is so gaga over Javier and why Ara felt the need to lie to go out with him and break up with Esteban. Bruno suggests that Art have a chat with Ara and find out why she lied and Art needs to meet Javier. Bruno says how ironic it is.  He tried to forget about Gaby but he married a woman just like her. He still loves Gaby. (Viewer vile knew it all along)

At Methusulah's office 
Gonzo and Dante are there to get some  false paperwork.  Meth says that from what he can see the dead are resurrecting?  Huh? Fernando appeared.  Gonzo started stuttering.  He died in jail, right? No, somebody else died and Fernando is free.  Both Gonzo and Dante were colorless and  speechless.  Dante gets that paperwork the the needs at a price of course.  Gonzo asks about Feo's whereabouts. Meth confirms that Feo wants to revenge Isa having him jailed and Dante can help. He can be the chauffeur.  Meth will arrange for Dante to be interviewed.

At Padre's

At Casa Arte
Gaby tells Isa that Ally paid her a visit. She is jealous of Gaby and that Bruno hasn't gotten over her. It doesn't matter to Gaby, (sure, Gaby).  Isa doesn't buy it.if a runs left Ally for any reason, Gaby shouldn't let that opportunity slip by again. Art and Isa plan a Gaby and Bruno intervention.

At the love nest
Favier is going to have dinner with OSD. He is going to try to dupe him.

In The hood
Dante brings Agatha the paperwork that she needed and he rents the apartment. Gonzo tells Da te that he double crossed Feo and that if Feo sees him, Gonzo is a dead man.  Dante will be a big help because Feo doesn't know him. The chauffeur's job is a better investment than robbing merchandise where he has betrayed Feo.

At a restaurant
Isa and Gaby are dining and Art and Bruno coincidentally meet them there. BTW- OSD is dining at the same restaurant with Javier.  Javier is all smiles at the lunch with OSD, who thanks him for tasking care of all of the medical costs. His cell rings and he walks off to answer. Tere calls Isa and suddenly there is a flood at the house, so Osa and Art leave, leaving Gaby and Bruno together.  It's Meth on the phone who tells Favier that he has a candidate for the chauffeur's job and Facier asks Meth if he is taking care of the other little job. When Isa and Art leaves they see OSD who,greets them under the watchful eye of Favier.  OSD has a new computer security program that he wants to show him that can protect the software of his company. They will make an appointment.  Favier mentions to OSD that he knows the Rivas couple and Ole wants to know, how does Favier know who they are. Favier says a friend of his is a relative of Art's.

Art and Isa hope that Gaby and Bruno don't suspect what they were trying to do Lucha tells Art that a chauffeur candidate is coming this afternoon for an interview.  Isa asks Ara if there is anything that she can help her with.  She shares that she has broken up with Este and she feels bad. Is it what he did or that you don't love him. She loves him but he hurt her by what he said.  You have loved him since you,were kids, first as a game and then it grew.  Isa lets her know not to let any man disrepect her at all. Isa asks if there is someone else. Yes, the person who,sent the flowers, Javier.  Ara feels bad because she doesn't  want to deceive Este. Isa gets it. Don't be fooled by the illusion of love, things, words, that is not love.

At the university
Este is still sad over the break up with Ara.  Daphe says that he said some horrible,things to her and Christian tells him that there are other fish in the sea. He notes that Ara is acting differently but he is going to fight for her.


At the restaurant

Casa de Paloma
Ricky and Ori discuss Marilu’s sudden change of heart (as Ori precariously navigates the stairs).  Ricky worries that the social worker may not give a good report to the judge who could keep Alina away from Ori.  She doesn’t want that to happen, she wants custody back now.  She’s really afraid of JL.  Ricky says this could mean another fight.  Ori is tired of arguing and resorts to her oft-repeated suggestion that maybe they just need to stop seeing each other – again.  Ricky tells her Mari-coo-coo can’t keep him from visiting his madrina who happens to be the major investor.  Ori worries this will put a bee in her bonnet and then she’ll go blab to the judge that the marriage is a sham and Ricky and Ori are having relations.  Ricky tells her to calm down and take one step at a time.  First, she must go to the judge to request custody of Alina.  That’s a given.  Now if JL protests, they’ll have to figure out how to defend themselves.  She is now Ines Valdivia   Egads – copy/paste time.  You know the drill:  If JL admits he’s Falcon, he’s cooked and as Francisco Castro, they never married.  He reminds her they agreed they’d be in this fight together to the bitter end and asks her not to give up now.   They’re smooching as Ruben shows up to visit Cesar.  He doesn’t say much but they stop smooching as Ruben heads upstairs.  Ricky assures Ori everything will turn out ok.  He tells her about Leo’s godfather’s suicide.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robó, # 57, 1/29/2014, Ale Hates Montse; Montse Hates Ale. Things are even, but will they ever get better?

Lo Refrito # 1Josefina tries to explain her understanding of Alejandro's point of view to Montse.

Lo Refrito # 2In the Living Room of Hacienda Almonte, a disbelieving Alejandro bends over the dead body of his father-in-law, Admiral Lauro Mendoza.  Ale tells Marcario to call in Lauro's chauffeur but not to tell him what happened because he (Ale) needs to make a call.  Ale exits the scene, leaving María behind to have some quality time with Admiral Mendoza's corpse:  "Maldito Viejo," she calls him, which translates directly as Bad Old Man, though if she were speaking in English she'd probably say, "Stupid Old Fart!"  María is angry at the Admiral for coming to die at the hacienda.  Some nerve!

Study o' Sh*t Going Down:  Alejandro, visibly shaken, is on the phone with his best friend, Victor.  Victor seems excited to get Ale's call, hoping it means he's calmer about the situation with Montse and is seeing things with a fresh point of view, but Ale immediately says no, he didn't call for this.  He explains what happened with the Admiral and is emotional and upset.  Ale asks Victor to help him, to call and make arrangements with a funeral home to receive the body tonight.  He (Ale) is coming to Agua Azul now and will pay for all the costs of the wake.  Victor wants to know if Ale has spoken yet with Montse.  Ale says no and that he wants to tell her in person.

Qué Pobres, Wednesday 1/29/14 (#18): The VICTIM Returns to the Scene of the Crime

Chuy asks, why so much fuss over a beat-up old brush? "Because it was Mom's." Chuy feels cheap!

The RPs retreat to their penthouse apartment to whine self-righteously. Mati scolds them: you're not living up to your pedigree.

Mati wanders around absently, looking for something that she's not sure what it is.

Chuy tells his kids not to be rude his old friend Aurelio's daughter-in-law and her family. JT protests: "But they're hiding..." Lupe interrupts him, preserving MA's big secret for just a tiny bit longer.

In the VIP skybox, the RPs continue to vent. They are full of complaints about these strangers who have been harboring them and feeding them, so far at their own expense. Frida is upset because the Menchacas are "carnivores" and after all, this is their grandfather's house. MA begs them again to just stay out of the Menchacas' way.

Saul smuggles MA onto the RP/Conceptos/Grupo Imperio/Televisa campus. MA hides in the backseat of the car while Saul stalls for time talking to the guard (who won't let him through the gate) until more cars pull up behind him. Then the guard has to let Saul through the gate so that the other cars can get through and he can turn around and get out.

MA hops out of the car and sneaks into Ahole's office. He swipes every potential piece of evidence he can find.

Back in Italy, Frida explains the family's financial situation to Mati.

Vilma shows up to work and notices that Ahole's office door is open. MA hides under the desk. Vilma takes the framed photo of Ahole and Mini from the desk, covers up Mini, and kisses Ahole's face. Ugh, sad. Then she calls one of the secretaries, Melina, and yells at her for leaving Ahole's door open. Melina sasses back: it's not her job to keep Ahole's office locked up. That's Vilma's job.
