De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #31- Mon 4/21
De que el arroz fue la unica cosa tumbada esta noche, fue la unica cosa tumbada esta noche
Natalia tries to talk to Diego, but he brushes her off, since it's "strictly professional" between them, so what could there be to talk about?
Rosa loves the idea of the clothing line, but she knows Vicente doesn't. She laughs to hear that he hasn't heard about it yet. She's happy to see Irene so happy.
Karina is so grumpy, she can't finish her cereal. Diana is so hungry she finishes it off for her. Karina wasn't kidding about that being the last food in the house. "And if I don't get a job today…." She encourages Diana to start looking for a job too, but Diana says "I wasn't born to work!" Well, whatever…Karina has an interview to get to.
Rosa and Irene bump into Natalia, who is less perky and polite than usual. Irene knows she's not usually like that and Rosa takes her word for it. "Is it just me, or was she crying?" Irene says something must have happened.

Que Pobres Tan Ricos #75: 4/21/14: The "Elixir" Helps Nepo and AS Cope!
Hola, Mis Amiguis! I will try to make this recap brief. Please let me know if I left anything out/corrections. Shall we start with an earworm? This is especially dedicated to Nepo: If I Can't Have You!
Lupe has gotten an earful from Ahole about Nepo showing up at El Editorial. Lupe is pithed.
Meanwhile Nepo is in his office at the market and is being tended to by Trofeo. Nepo's face is a hot mess of a bruise and Trofeo puts an ice pack on it. MA has come in too and Nepo tells him thanks for nothin' for protecting him from Ahole. Pobrecito! MA that is not Nepo.
Lupe calls up Nepo and wants a chat, not later, now, now, now! Toute Suite!

Lo Que la Vida Me Robó #114, Lunes 4/21/14
A
Foreword from Edith Wharton
Ladies
and Gentlemen,
It
has thus far been my peculiar pleasure to guide you through the
social quagmire of Aguazul. In the process we have identified the
genuinely noble members of our society, those who only present
themselves as such (with varying levels of success), and the
demi-monde, the one set that never deceives itself about what it is
or can be. Sadly, their honest ways have had no effect on those who
present a face to the world so false that the most observant of us
are obliged to look for the degradation it hides.
Since
our tale has taken a path away from the masquerades of drawing rooms
and the minuets of manners, it would be foolhardy of me to lead where
I dare not follow. While I am infinitely familiar with even the most
naked greed the world of cynicism, corruption, and brutality requires
a guide with greater knowledge than mine and a manner more direct
than I am accustomed to assuming.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo #113: 4/18/14: It's All About Graceless' Wants!
Ahoy Amiguis! I want to wish everyone a very Happy Easter and Passover. This recap is on the fly, so please correct/add anything I happened to miss. I am skipping the old and starting with the new. Oh, for my count of the missing Padre, this is day eight of the missing Curia. Shall we start with an earworm? Y'all just know I have one or two every recap I do. This one is dedicated to Graceless of course, cause this episode was full of her, er herself shall we say, and here it is for your listening pleasure: Heartless!
Graceless has continued her trumped up testimony and that Judge is just eating it up. Graceless says one of his peons, she doesn't now if it was Ale for sure, wink, wink, nudge, nudge, but he was being drugged or something, and she thought she'd let the judge know that cause of the exhumation. The Judge wants to know why she didn't take Don Benny to a hospital? Well, the Padre didn't approve you see, she was a married woman, and had been Don Benny's lova all those years, can you imagine the scandal? Her prestige, cough, cough, was on the line here. Besides that "bastardo" married her daughter Monse for goodness sake.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #30- Fri 4/18
"De que trabajo en Caprico, trabajo en Caprico"
Diego tells Irene about how he really felt like Rodrigo was there, listening to him, and how much he misses him. *drink* He's hoping this is a sign that he's recovering. Irene encourages him not to get his hopes up. They change the subject to the need for a DNA test on Diana's baby and start researching on the Internet.
Brigitte gets Natalia's work number from Carmen and calls to ask for an appointment with Irene. Natalia tells her it's way too early for that--they don't even know if they're going to go forward with the clothing line yet. Brigitte complains to Carmen that Natalia's just being selfish. She's determined to get a job at Caprico (hence the title).
Irma the nurse would totally be putting the moves on Rodrigo if he were conscious. She settles for putting him through some passive stretches.
Irene and Diego start calling labs to ask what exactly a DNA test entails and how long it takes. The first lab tells Diego it takes a week and he flips.

Weekend Discussion: Karmageddon Awaits!
Karmageddon
in Por Siempre Mi Amor
OK, with
17 or 18 hours to go on this story, it's time for this all-important
discussion. The villains in this tale are some of the vilest
excuses for human beings we've seen to date, so this will be lively.
As in a
previous discussion on another series, this will be a two-part
question:
- What fate do you think they deserve?
- What do you think the writers will do to these perverse creatures?

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo #112, 4/17/14: Nadia Escapes Pedro and Graciela Tells A Whopper
Prologue
The story you are about to read about is not true. No names
have been changed because there is not one innocent character on Lo Que La Vida
Me Robo, except maybe Baby Laurito. Given his family, I have eve my doubts about him.
This is the city, Aguazul, Campeche, MX. I work here: not
for much as it turns out, but it must be enough or I wouldn’t keep doing the
job. Praise does sometimes calm the ego’s insatiable need for fuel.
I am a
recapper.
Some might call me jaded. You will understand my cynicism
when I report that in the light of the last few weeks of unending violence and
gloom so little happened tonight that I could almost be cheerful.
Almost.
It’s not easy being a recapper. You don’t get a lot of
respect in this business. I mean, you sit down next to some good citizen on a
long haul flight, they eventually ask you what you do, and you smile and say,
“I spend several hours a week recapping Mexican soap operas. That is MY life.”
Do they smile in return and ask you to tell them more about
your fascinating job as a recapper? Do
you ever get a chance to discuss the value of long arc storytelling or whether
telenovelas reflect real trends in modern Mexican culture? Do you debate whether the Sopranos or Breaking Bad were telenovelas?

Que Pobres Tan Ricos #73: 4/17/14 : Suelta La Sopa, Por Favor!
Hola Mis Amguis! This recap is on the fly, so please fill in anything I missed/got wrong. I have an earworm that is perfecto for Ahole. Have a listen: You're So Vain!
Shall we begin? Lupe is cleaning the house and talking to MA. She keeps making him move so she can get the floor under his feet and he even adds more cleaner to her bucket. They are discussing when they should tell their families about them being an item, of course, and also Nepo. Well, MA wants to do it sooner rather than later, but Lupe wants him to wait some, cause of the fraud accusation and other things. Knocky, Knocky on the door and who is it? Special Delivery, of flowers, and what a nice arrangement it is too! Lupe accepts them and is so very happy MA got them for her, that she gives him lots of sugar, but the problem is MA didn't send her those flowers. Lupe thinks maybe Nepo sent them, and of course MA isn't happy over that, even though earlier he said Nepo was a nice guy.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #29- Thurs 4/17
De que abrió los ojos, abrió los ojos
Grumps is rudely awakened by Diana, come to complain that Diego never came home last night. Grumps thinks it's highly likely that Diego spent the night with "that woman," not that there's any reason to get all upset about it. He tells Diana not to worry her little head…Grumps will take care of it. "Now let me rest."
Diego's ready to go off half-cocked once he sees the video, but Irene tells him he needs to think first.
Vicente's old secretary stops by to visit and says such nice things about her old boss that you could knock Natalia over with a feather.
Diego is convinced that the baby is Oliverio's. He tells Alberto to rewrite the agreement and Alberto says he can now demand a divorce--Diana can't "refuse" to give him one, since she's a cheater, and Diego doesn't have to give her a damn thing! Diego calls the house and asks to speak to Diana. He tells her he's been thinking and asks her to met him for a coffee.
Eleazar comes by to pick up his "wife" and is alarmed to see that Carmen isn't ready to go yet. She fills him in on just how much work goes into getting the denizens of Garcia Central Station up and out the door every morning. They end up laughing over how they're arguing like a real married couple. It takes Carmen about two seconds to go to her room and throw on a fabulous dress, but she needs El's help zipping it up. And I'm sure he's thinking he'd rather be unzipping it, but hey, Lupita's expecting them.

Qué Pobres, Weds 4/16/14 (#72): He Hugged a Boy and He Liked It
Oh, man. This is painful. So much awesomeness to report; so little time. Most of this is from memory and I am paraphrasing like mad, so please don't hesitate to correct errors/omissions.
Diego calls Leo about his next art lesson. Leo hesitates. Diego suggests having the lesson at his place. Leo is afraid to go out on the street, but Diego offers to pick him up. Leo agrees; the things he'll do for the sake of art!
Leo comments on the decor at Diego & Nepo's house. (Sometimes a banana is just a banana, right? Right??) It's still super-naco, Leo says; just as tasteless as at the Menchacas', but he also observes that it's a better neighborhood and a nicer grade of hyper-naco stuff. Diego gets a kick out of the way Leo speaks, with everything being -uki and little sprinkles of English.
AS gives Perla an etiquette lesson. The topic: fancy dinners. Perla faces a dizzying array of plates, glasses, and cutlery. Everything she says and does is wrong, according to AS. Perla is overwhelmed, but motivated. AS thinks Perla also could use some lessons in "diction" because of the vulgar, common way she speaks. She urges Perla to encourage the rest of her family to take the lessons too, because (she's said this before to Carmelita) they could transform this greasy spoon restaurant into a fine dining destination. (Does AS really believe this transformation is possible, or is she just trying to entice them with something she thinks would interest them?)

Lo Que La Vida Me Robó, #111, 4-16-2014: The Grand Re-Opening of La Escondida; María discovers a new career; Nadia realizes she and Victor have been Pedro's private porn stars.
Dear Caray Caray Friends,
I had to do this one quickly today. There must be a million typos, but I think I got most of the major points and even some details. Let me know if I missed something important.
Best to you all! Enjoy!
Julia R.
Lo refrito: Captain Robledo tells Refugio he should be proud of Esmeralda's hard work and intelligence and also tells him he has a new lieutenant to report to; Esmeralda trains her new dancers while María looks on; Pedro has sent Nadia flowers to congratulate her on her pregnancy. This is not a good thing given the fact that this means he KNOWS about her pregnancy.
Naval Base, Agua Azul: ATTENTION CAPTAIN ROBLEDO: FRATERNIZATION ALERT!
Refugio meets his new boss, Lieutenant Rentería. He is surprised to discover that said boss is a woman, and she quickly upbraids him for his insolence and attitude. He apologizes and insists that he's not machista, it's just that he's not used to seeing many women in the naval base. She informs him that she worked hard to merit her position and earned it through discipline, bravery, but most of all intelligence. She wonders if he thinks intelligence and beauty are incompatible--and by the way, does HE think she's pretty? Does he ever--with all due respect, he adds. Finally, she dismisses him and tells him to wait for her in the office and help her with her work. She reminds him to salute her when he forgets, and he leaves, but afterwards she is smiling to herself, and it's clear these two have some serious chemistry.

De que no es gay, no es gay
Diana breaks off the non-gay-non-cousin liplock, in case Alonso comes back. Alonso, hiding out in the broom closet with Alberto, is furious.
Diego assumes that Diana left the test results on purpose, and is pissed that she'd decide to tell him something so important this way. He storms out of the office with Irene hot on his heels.
The "session" continues, but Alonso isn't kicking them out yet.
Lupita admits to her mom that she lied so good, the class wants her cop daddy to come to show-and-tell.
Cop Daddy is getting a promotion to head of Homicide. Ummm…Eleazar…please don't bring homicide stuff to show-and-tell!
Diego shows up just after Diana and Sexter leave, but he leaves without stopping to talk to Alonso and Alberto. Alonso calls him while he's in the car, but Diego is hell bent on confronting Diana about the pregnancy test. The Als are worried, thinking maybe Diego figured out the truth about Oliverio on his own.
