RIPOLL: Now in police custody, Chava tells his sobbing sister not to be afraid and asks Matias to take care of her and his mother. After the cruiser leaves the curb, Marisol collapses at the gate. Both Lucas and Matias kneel to comfort her, but Matias shoves Lucas away and continues to comfort her by himself.

A while later, Patrick returns to Silvanna's office with the DNA results. It's official! Sophia did not spew forth from the loins of Octavio. Patrick laughs maniacally. Silvanna congratulates him for having Greta in the palm of his hand.

La Malquerida #27, 9/30/14: Alejandra Meets Her Demon Danilo, Face to Face!
Mexico Episode #32
Madelaine is sick with the flu, and Gloria is frolicking in
the mountains, so I’m filling in tonight. And boy, was this episode a doozy! In
an effort to capture tonight’s important confrontations, I made this recap
detailed. Let’s get on with it!
The Old:
In the church, Perla and Alejandra argue loudly about the Danilo
situation. Perla refuses to come with Ale to denounce Dan, and blames Ale for
everything that went wrong after she took off with the merchandise—Danilo getting
beat down by his bosses, left lame, and without his business. She tells Ale
that Danilo is coming after her to kill her, and she better run.
The New:
Esteban is drinking in his office and breathing heavy after
hearing that Acacia and Ulises have been having the marriage talk. His perv
confidant Rubio comes in and Este pounds his fist on the desk and says Acacia
can’t be Ulises’, or ANY man’s! Rubio tries to talk sense into Este and tells
him that he and Acacia can’t live under the same roof. Este says all he needs
to do is keep control of himself. He says this while grabbing Rubio’s lapels and
breathing heavy. Yeah…how’s that “getting in control of yourself” plan working
out, Este? Rubio leaves.
The real Church ladies have gotten tired of the two
inappropriately dressed women screeching at each other, and make a beeline
towards the back of the church for the Padre. Perla says we do what we have to
do, to survive. Ale’s not having it. Perla can go on being exploited if she
wants, but Ale has had the taste of a decent life, and she sure as heck won’t
let Danilo steal it from her! The Padre interrupts before things become heated
again. Perla covers up her boobs, and Ale stands up, points to Perla, and yells
that Perla is the woman of the man who exploited her! Perla hustles out of the
church quickly, and says it’s Ale’s funeral because Dan is coming to kill her.

Mi Corazon Es Tuyo #52, Tues 09/30/2014 Finally Bruno and Manuela hook up, Jen leaves Nico breathless... Isa wins one battle, or does she?...
Refritos:
Johny hugs the bald guy
Leon meets Reeky… Reeky notices that Leon is not quite just history for Fanny.
Nando and Ximena, his blindly kissing her nose… she keeps on smiling…
Jenn and Nico… Ay my Sciatica!!! / no worries, I will go make you a home remedy in a jiffy!
Isa spills the coffee on Ana intentionally…
I: sorry, I am so clumsy… (Ana growls) … you owed me. Know? It was an accident, I am so distracted…
A: You think you ruined my night?... I can change clothes in 2 minutes, but you can’t change your bitterness…
Lo Nuevo:
Jen is delighted with how ‘lively’ (vivaz) Nico turned out to be…
Ximena and Nando… he makes some comment of going 300K km per second… she says ‘don’t feel bad… these things happen. … it was great.’ ‘you are such a bad liar… but I love you so much…’ ‘ Nando, you are my love… my love.’
Nico throws the towel on Jenn (he has her lip kiss prints all over his face’… she will bring him some cake she has around. (he comments ‘this woman is a beast’ and she replies she heard him LOL!)
Isa goes to fetch Fernando at library… She reminds Fernando Ana must be having a great time with his brother… they make a great couple, don’t you think? They are both liberal, extroverted… i can imagine them backpacking semi-nude in the middle of the jungle… ‘ She suggests they go to bedroom… sorry Isa, even if you try to massage and give him a preview, he is just not that into you… he comes up with the excuse that his son Sebas is out on the street. Isa asks Fer if it is time to take the painting of him and Fanny off the wall. He just replies ‘No.’ (take that, bruja!!)
The guy who Leon got off Fanny when they met is the DJ at some club. There is Sebas in the middle of teenage girls who are clearly older than him. Poor guy is about to be stepped on… but he is real happy to be there.
Erasmo the driver calls Fernando’s cell. Fernando is very impactado to hear his son escaped.
At scalpore, Bruno keeps admiring Manuela’s cleavage. She pulls his chin up so his eyes look at her face… LOL! He mentions the devil arriving and then blows on her chest… she asks him how long has she been running after his jacket tails… he doesn’t know. She says she is tired. He begs her not to go. ‘Today you will understand one of my mysteries’.

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #31 9/29/14 Go to Jail. Go Directly to Jail. Do Not Pass Go or Collect $200.
Hola, Everyone! There was great discussion over the weekend about why Sofia (Beautiful) would be attracted to Chava (Beast). So I did a little digging and I found this article that gives several reasons why Visually Opposites attract:
Whatever the reasons, Uggo and Hottie couplings like Chava and Sofia happen all the time in real life. Cases in point:
|
Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony
|
|
Pauline Porizkova and Rick Ocasek
|
|
Rod Stewart and Rachel Hunter
|
In her hotel room in Brasil, Sofia considers calling Chava but decides against it.
Dani calls to talk to Sofia.
Pato and Silvana get busy in bed.
Chava and Sofia think about each other through the magical windows of their minds.

La Gata #21- Mon 9/29 - La Hija
Before Fernando can launch into his sales pitch, Jarocha tells him Gata's in desperate need of his help. Gata apologizes for having caused a scene, but Fernando thinks she needs understanding and affection. Jarocha decides to leave them alone.
Garabato hits on some other girl and gets caught by Ines. She, of course, takes it out on the other girl.
Fernando sees Gata's inner light…she gives his life meaning. He tells her about the pain in his life since he lost his wife and daughter. He figures guys are always into her for sexual reasons (he doesn't say it like that, though) but he's interested in being her daddy, minus the sugar. He wants to give her and the kids everything they need, so she can show Pablo that she doesn't need him. He wants to humiliate the Negretes and raise Esme up like a queen. She keeps resisting. Fernando tells her that Agustin took everything from him and his revenge will be her revenge.

Mi Corazón es Tuyo Lunes 9/29/14 #51
Capitulo
51: Three Coins In the Fountain
Lascuráin
Mansion: Isabitch went on the offensive by being offensive to
Ana, demanding that she stay away from Fernando.
Ana took it quite
calmly, telling her – with something of a smirk – that the kiss
in the hall was an accident. Isabitch ordered her to shut up and
said she would like to arrange an accident that would get her out of
the way. She ordered her out of her room and growled in the wake of
Ana's departure.

Bela Gets The Blues (As Her Due)
Let us JIP (J=join in progress) as Don Nicolas’s bride to be,
La Jennifer, makes a “naughty night” date with Nic. (E.D. PSA alert!) Nerdando
comes downstairs with a smile the size of the DF anticipating his own
naughty night date with Ximena. The two
end up comparing their respective upcoming night of nookie and Nerdando admits
he’s still a virgin. Don Nico says that
at his age with a woman like Jennifer he might as well still be a virgin
himself. (Sorry, but a serious young man discussing losing his virginity
with his parental units or even his grand parental units is more than I can
stomach. –N-n-nb-b-t-t-t-t!!! Oh well, the whole storyline here is more
than I can stomach. And my beanie is out
for repairs. Let’s continue…..)
Even weirder discussion ensues as Nico tells
his 17 year old grandson that he’s got an appointment that morning to see about
adopting a baby for Jens. (Guess the old
guy’s so rich he figures he can buy his way through anything. Anyway, what is some 70- something old fart
doing bringing a baby home like a kitten or puppy from the county pound?? He’d probably be pushing up daisies and
Mexican heather long before the kid gets out of junior high, even. Why does he think that should be fair for a
child?? Crap! Why doesn’t the old toe-sucker get his rocks
off once in a while with his trophy wife, courtesy of the little blue pill, and
count his blessings such as they are?)

Weekend Discussion: The Galans of Opera
I'm always comparing telenovelas and opera and they have more in common every day. And there are tons of great videos online to prove it.
It is no longer necessary just to be able to sing well; opera stars are now expected to be good actors and also to be hot. Today I will present a line-up of tenors. If there is adequate response, I'll do a sequel featuring baritones and basses.

La Malquerida #24: What is Lost Becomes Found And The Accidental Kiss
Hola Amiguis! This recap is mainly from memory, I didn't take any notes, so if I miss anything let me know. Here's the earworm.Bury My Lovely
Shall we begin.
Este and Acacia are off to Cuidad Real to take care of bidnez with that Pieralta guy. When they meet with him he immediately goes off on Acacia, what a jerk, calling her inexperienced and how could Este leave this child in charge of so important a bidnez deal. Este has gives it back to this guy , he tells this Peirata guy that he is talking to the daughter of the duena of the Hacienda and not just a nobody. Acacia wants to go, but Este has her stay. This Peiralta guy is a true putz. His cell phone keeps going off, and he is constantly walking out of this meeting to take the calls. We just know who keeps burning up his phone, it's Norbie of course. Well, Norbie too is unable to fulfill this order, cause he doesn't have that amount of cotton, nor is he able to get it yet. Peiralta is giving Este grief that this cotton is destined for The United States and they are holding his feet to the fire, and he'll have to pay a huge fine. Which will get passed on to Este of course. Este will do what he can.

Stop the hugging of Este, you are driving him mad!

Mi corazon es tuyo, #49 - Thursday, 09/25/2014 Never let a fool kiss you, or a kiss fool you
(Joey Adams, American comedian)
I’m back home this week for my brother’s wedding, so this recap has been written in bits and pieces whenever I had the chance to run away from my noisy (although lovable) family. I hope I didn’t forget any important details. If I have, please add whatever you think is significant in the comments.
Off we go...
Do you still have to write thank you cards for the wedding presents if you get a divorce three days after the wedding? Do you even have the time to do that?
Fernando is telling Bruno that he is still in love with Ana, but it’s not like he’s harboring any type of hope of a future reunion. He is married and she is involved with Diego, who is his brother AND is truly in love with her. She is unlike any other women that Diego has ever been with, so Fer truly believes that this time his feelings are for real - so he can’t get in the middle of that and hurt his brother. Besides, Diego is handsome and a good guy, he is the best candidate to win Ana’s heart.
Bruno doesn’t believe that all hope is lost. With all due respect, he doesn’t understand why Fer had to marry Isabella; he could have taken care of the child without making her his wife. (Viewerville is applauding Bruno for calling it as it is, even if he is trying to be very tactful about it).
Yes, but Fer wants his new baby to feel like it’s part of a real family.
OK, then, Bruno insists, but there is always divorce… There are plenty of kids out there with divorced parents that are OK. Because as far as he’s concerned, this marriage was un grave error. (Viewerville cheers, Bruno might be getting a honorary member card). Fernando goes hmmm… Could he have a light bulb moment?
After they finish their chat about Ana, Fer invites his only friend, el majordomo, to join him to watch Johnny's stand-up. Isa is not home yet, so... boys night out?
But Isabella IS at home and she hears the first part of their conversation and runs to her mother’s bedroom, kicking and screaming after. She knocks on the door and is very loud, Diego sees her but doesn’t stick around to figure out what happened. He goes downstairs where Ana is waiting for him so they can go to the bar to watch Johnny's show. Their banter downstairs about taking the moto is really cute, Ana is at least warming up to him.
Upstairs Isabella is still crying like a little child over the fact that Fernando doesn’t love her because he still loves Ana. Yola doesn’t want to comfort her daughter, she just points out the fact that having all these loving, human feelings are only getting in the way. Their purpose was the Lascurain fortune, which they now have, so Isa needs to stop crying, because that won’t solve anything.
