Esmeralda tries to warn Doña Rita that Ines is going to end up sleeping with El Doodle. Does it surprise anyone that Rita takes Ines's side? Rita throws La Gata out of the jacal. Esmeralda spends the night looking for shelter and monologue-ing to her long lost father. She is sure that he is out there somewhere and will return to take care of her. Later, Esmeralda returns and begs to be let back into the hovel. Ines makes her apologize. I seriously cannot wait for Rita's and Ines's anvils. They cannot fall fast enough.

La Gata #6 - Mon 9/8 - La Tormenta
Pablo's dad gives him a lecture on how to be a proper snob. Pablo says he thinks he's starting to understand. His dad is thrilled and moves on to talking about Lorenza's desire for a Pablo-Monica union. Pablo keeps the innocently bland look on his face and his dad never notices he's being mocked.
Gata has found Principe. Crisis averted! No sign of Doña Rita, though. Too bad, so sad. La Gata and Centavito work on setting out various things to catch the rain. Centavito doesn't think Rita's on the level about begging for money. He thinks something else is going on.
Pablo's dad keeps going on until Pablo can't take it anymore and calls it illogical. Pablo says he'll make his own marriage choices, thank you very much. And Papi threatens to withdraw his financial support. Well, Pablo's heart is no whore, so that's not going to work.
Pablo worries about Gata in the rain.

TELEMUNDO Y MÁS — Reina de Corazones: week of September 8, 2014 - PAGE ONE
Reinamaniacs are still reeling from the realization that Telemundo is cutting the heart out of our favorite show. Guys, if you haven’t already done so, please let Telemundo know how you feel about this. You can email them at this address:
Te.escuchamos@telemundo.com
Or you can express your opinion on Reina’s Facebook page or on Twitter.
What can I say? I find that a battle-scarred Reina is still more enjoyable than the rest of Telemundo’s primetime lineup and definitely more fun than anything Univisión is airing right now. ¡Ánimo! And keep those Crockpot Theories™ bubbling!

Weekend Discussion: What Are Novelas Teaching Viewers?
La Malquerida is treading into some dangerous territory regarding misogyny and incest, La Gata is perhaps more heavily into class-consciousness than any of the others, and Mi Corazon es Tuyo shows us a large family about to explode over a marriage contracted for the wrong reasons which will have a domino effect on everyone in the entire household. Since that series is popular in Mexico we can anticipate a long period during which a wicked stepmother will reign supreme over a previously controlling (but loving) father. Nothing new, but this will be the largest-scale example to date.
What effect do you think this has and what should be instead? Sound off, amigos.

The Enemy Advances
Cap 34
Ana forces Diego to retrieve her confession letter. “—You owe me! You OWE me!” He races into Fernando’s bedroom and grabs the paper out of his brother’s hands. I don’t want you to read this!

They grouse about whose fault it was until she tries kicking him out of her room so she can get to bed. He tells her she should be grateful and eventually show him how grateful—a good-night kiss would do for starters. She slams the door on him and he is totally smitten.

La Gata #4 - Thu 9/4 - La Poesía
El Silencioso hangs out in his spacious single cell and daydreams about running around with Erika Buenfil and snuggling with a little baby. He vows revenge, for his family.
Esmeralda continues struggling to read Walt Whitman's "Song of Myself" while I frown in Pablo's general direction. She's still having trouble with the actual words…wouldn't something less abstract be easier? I can't find the section she's reading…something about spring arriving and soft breath…anyone know what it is?

Hasta el Fin del Mundo Recap #13
Sofia is missing her shoe and Chava has a uh oh. He is scurrying and helping her look for it. They go to buy another pair of shoes in the interim.
Alexa and Greta have a heart to heart; Greta isn't clothes-minded. She was young once! Alexa lets it out that she is 6 months behind on her rent. Greta subtly blows a gasket and Alexa then says that is exactly why she didn't want to tell her. Alex says she has a lot to tell and it will never end; Greta can't help her. Alexa doesn't wanna face Sofia and ask for help monetarily.
Chava and Sofia talk about the call she made to him the other day; it was accident. Chava is OK with that since he was filled with glee and he is glad he met her.
Silvie was called in by Pat and she sees he has left info pertaining to the DNA test he has in store against Sofi. Silvie thinks Pat is behaving strangely when he gets a call from the mansion.
Sofi is in such a rush she opened the door herself and as she scurries off, Chava compliments her new shoes; he know he must find the missing shoe.
Over the phone, Greta is making a deal with Pat pertaining to Alexa.
Silvie is remembering that Pat and a stranger went to Maestro's house and knows something is up.
Alexa and Greta discuss their woes and such some more.
Fausto and Dani are discussing the woe of the stolen dress.
Lucas is playing the guitar when Miguelina come in and she asks about the wonderful job he said he had; you said things would be different! Miguelina has a Dona Mati and talks about how she is close to dying and he needs to be independent.
Chava drives around looking for the shoe; lo and behold, he found it? No, it's a dirty shoe he gallantly throws in the recycling bin.
Pat comes to Silvie and they discuss Alexa as the Chica Ripoll. Silvie claims she grew.
As he brings things in for her, Greta is lecturing Armie on art and she said art critics are boring. IrkMe has called him BUT he ignores it (who wouldn't?) and goes to bring more things upstairs.
Chava has successfully found the shoe!
IrkMe is angrily lamenting that Armie doesn't answer her calls. As he brings more packages, the phone rings and Greta says if he doesn't anwer the phone, someone is going to suffer an anxiety attack! He ignores it and Greta throws her 2 cents in; she says IrkMe must be demanding or jealous.
Sofi and Chava are a hoot once more.
IrkMe is leaving a message; forgive me babe.
Armie and Greta talk about how he isn't a cheater; Greta says he is a stand-up guy and Alexa is gorgeous. She can see why his wife would be jealous.
Chava lets a little white lie about how he found it; he was pricked by the heel while finding it in the car LOL.
Alexa asks Armie to take her to the Ripollery and he is skeptical at first but is reassured and happ to oblige.
Dani gets a call from Lucas and then a text; Risitas Hablamos. Fausto comes in stating dinner is ready. Would you like to eat downstairs or up? 'Niela asks Fausto for advice for a friend who is really her. Fausto recommends her "friend" help the boy and not to get mad if things don't work out because she is really trying to help him. He will bring her food up so her HomeWork groove isn't interrupted.
Lucas at work with his mobster boss.
Chava awaits outside for Sofi who is in a restaurant; she calls Chava to tell him to come in with her.
IrkMe sees Armie driving by with Alexa in the car. He helps her out and the sentimental music kicks in while Alexa walks into the Ripollery.
Matty catches Silvie and lets her know one of the machines is having difficulties when he is preempted by Alexa. Matty hits on Alexa and then he lets Silvie know about the machine for real this time and she says leave a memo; he gets a hit off of her sardonicism.
Chava is inside with Sofi since a woman and her baby didn't come in (I'm guessing Sofi is looking for a new Chica Ripoll.) He is about to leave because of the subtle discomfort when she pulls him in and tells him to stay.
Matty finds Armie and thanks him for taking him home. That's what friends are for. He lets Armie about the machine and La Chica Ripoll.
Alexa is in Pat's evil lair and they wheel and deal. I don't have a good feeling about this.
Chava and Sofi politely get their grub on and he is overwhelmed by the abundance of utensils. Sofi advises him the least used ones are for the appetizer and the most used are for the entrée. Eat calmly. Chava asks if she would like to talk about anything and Sofi says she would like to hear about his life.
Lupe is looking for a CD and exclaims to Marisol she has found it! With that CD she can make kids, adults and something I didn't catch dance! She busts a move and in a silly way gets down with Marsiol (after shaking her head back and forth.)
Pat is laying it on thick that Alexa is grown and blossomed now. She says La Chica Ripoll isn't in her anymore and receives a call; it's Alan and he is being a jerk saying if he doesn't receive the money they need, he will tell Sofi everything!
Avances-
Sofi and Chava talk some more and he claims they're from 2 different worlds.
Armie saves Lexi from killing herself but she twists her ankle.
Lucas tries to steal from Sofi when Chava is right there and tells him to let it go.
IrkMe yells at Armie for bringing Alexa home and curing her ankle.
