Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #14 Fri 9/11/15 (Mex 18) Ooooooo, Pedro!
We have a little overlap from the end of yesterday: Sonia rejecting Osvaldo’s amorous overtures because she thinks he just wants to make a little Angeles heir; Anibal (as attractive to me as an upchucked hairball) tries to put the moves on Fifi and gets blocked by Benito; Pedro, at the beautiful mausoleum with the waterfall, tearfully says goodbye to Tania, asks her forgiveness and in her name pledges to give Fiorella all the love that he couldn’t give to her.
At El Rancho, Eloisa and Julieta talk about the upcoming
traditional celebration of Maximo’s birthday.
Eloisa doesn’t feel like participating this year, the first celebration
without him, and invites Julieta to join her for a spiritual retreat. Julieta could use it, perpetually in a funk
about her marriage as she is: they can
pray, meditate, think! Julieta doesn’t
think so: she’s afraid to leave Anibal
alone. Granny Eloisa tells her it’s her
choice. She’s got two options: "Accept the husband you have, relax and stop
suffering or separate from him for good!" Go, Granny! Osvaldo
breathlessly enters the saloncita where they are. He’s looking for Pedro!
At La Dolce Vita, Vitto is reviewing resumes of applicants for
the position of assistant, the position Benito vacated.
This bright morning finds Gigi sitting up in bed reading
when Osvaldo bursts through the open door looking for Pedro, [Why in the heck is he looking for him there?] As soon as Osvaldo leaves, Gael flies in
ready to give Gigi a piece of his mind about setting up him and Roxi! "Ah!
Are you the guy who helped me when I was sick?" Gael looks like, Wha?
Gigi flies into Gael’s arms and he melts as she repeats “Grazie, grazie”
over and over. What’s a guy to do? He hugs her and rhythmically pats her
back. Ahhhh!

Amores con trampa #119 11 Sep 2015 Spooky houses, nightmares, the secret's out about Rocio's origin.... and Pantera finally finds someone to man up to confront her.
Santee begs Isabel… she says shes tired of this
situation. She confesses that many years
ago, in a weak moment, … (wait for it… wait for it….) her sister confessed a secret… that she (Isa’s
sister) and Santee were an item… (he is
impactado enough to fall to sit on fireplace base…) she remembers… Malena died just after
confessing, leaving Isa with the baby in her arms…
Santee asks why did you never mention or question anything
of me?... Santee says ‘now that you
always knew… its true… I was with her but I did not know she was your sister…
you gotta believe me… we(you and I) were not married yet… I just found a pretty
girl… we had some fun… danced… I had no idea she was married or that she was
your sister… and that night…. She got pregnant with Rocio… when I had my daughter in my arms for the
first time… her tiny hand…. I understood that that night was the most wonderful
of my life… you know how I adore my daughter…. (she hugs him) … I love my
daughter… I feel she is the biggest blessing of my life… please forgive me…. (Isa asks him for
forgiveness for having told Esteban…)
they hug again…
Maria’s boutique…. Rocio can’t believe what Carmen said… that’s
the one thing she is not liking about living in the country… that there are
wild dangerous animals… Carmen says
there are other wild dangerous animals here in the city… Rocio guesses she
means Francisca…. Carmen has not seen
her recently and that worries her… In
comes Diego… The girls are happy to see
him, he calls Carmen ‘mi amor’…
Back to Santee and Isa…. Santee wonders how he could ever
have trusted ‘my friend’… Santee wants
to go find Esteban to confront him…. Isa says don’t bother, don’t end up in
jail on his account. Santee sits down
at fireplace base with her again…. He wants Isa to arrange a meeting with
Esteban…. ‘we will set a trap for him… .he will learn what it is to live “amores
con trampa”’.
Rocio and Diego tell Carmen that they have made some
arrangements to help Carmen out… Carmen is heading back to the country
(driving). This scares both Diego and Rocio.
Carmen says she will be alright, they should ban the huge trailers and
trucks though. Diego offers to drive
her himself… he can’t risk ‘the next TOP MODEL’… Carmen and Diego leave.

Help Needed!
I suppose it was bound to happen sometime. Many of our recaps, and in some cases comments as well, have been copied and pasted and presented as someone else's work (i.e., copyright infringement, plagiarism). I am in the process of contacting the sites in question and asking to have them taken down, but it's a tedious process and I could use some help. If you have decent search skills, patience, and an even temper (because, believe me, it's really tempting to leave nasty messages for some of these people instead of following proper channels, and we need to avoid that!) and would like to help out, please email me. I especially need people who use Facebook, as the majority of the sites in question are Facebook pages.
Please be aware that this is taking my entire focus at the moment, so I may not be doing my usual updates on the feeds this weekend and I may not have time to get into any specifics about this infringement issue. You're welcome to ask, just don't expect an answer right away!
Update: Facebook has begun to respond by taking down the offending posts, but the list is still growing. 2 down, 1 report submitted without a response yet, and 10+ more Facebook pages and other sites that I still have not finished combing through yet to be able to make reports.
Update: Facebook and Blogger are taking down the offending posts, sometimes entire pages. The list is now shrinking instead of growing, but there is still more to do. If you're interested in helping out, email me and I'll send you some links to research. To repeat--we are making headway, our rights are being upheld, and the word is getting out that, no, copying and pasting is not a legitimate way to run a blog, website, or Facebook page.
Update: This is a special message to those who are now aware that we are conducting investigations and requesting takedowns. I would like to point out that we are within our rights to do this. It's not a matter of just giving credit--we do not allow any reprinting/republication aka copying and pasting. It's nothing personal, it's just our policy. I'm aware there is some confusion and some hurt feelings and rumors are starting to swirl around, so let me make it clear that ALL we want is to preserve our intellectual property rights. If you voluntarily take the posts down, then we have nothing to report to Facebook, Blogger, or your web hosts and you will save yourself a LOT of trouble. If you want to be helpful to your readers, the best thing...the ONLY thing...it is ok for you to do is to share with them the link (the web address, the URL, the "http:...etc.") that points to the particular recap they're looking for. Our recaps are already available and freely shared. There is NO reason for all this copying and pasting and editing. If our recaps are not to your taste, if your readers don't want to come here to read them, then we highly encourage you to begin writing your own.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #13 Thu 9/10/15 (Mex 16-17)
This is going to be the fastest recap ever. And it’s not a recap. It’s a rundown of highlights...out of order...from memory...and missing the end since my DVR cut out. (It was Open House last night and the NFL opener. I woke up early and watched and did this.)
Pedro takes Gianna to the servants’ quarters and hysteria ensues. Lots of screaming for the doctor. Lots of hand wringing.
Unaware of the chaos, Anibal decides to take Julieta out for a romantic dinner (at La Dolce Vita.)
Pedro calls for Gael. Who knew? The dude studied medicine in Europe.
Adela and Ray have some lines. I think they were worried about Vito finding out they’ve all been lying.
Gael proves worthless. OOOPS. Looks like he was lying to them all. He either wasn't studying at all, or he didn't finish his studies. At least he had the decency to act ashamed.
During Anibal and Julieta’s romantic dinner we learn that she hates Italians. We also learn that Anibal is a stickler for personal hygiene. While he is in the bathroom washing his hands, his phone goes off. It’s a text from a lady thanking him for the divine time last week. Too bad it was Julieta that saw it and not Anibal. Busted.

Lo Imperdonable #83 Thu 9/10/15 The bombs keep dropping
Hello, Caray mates
Unfortunately, I have some bad news - I won't be able to post a recap, because some friends from out of town dropped by to visit us before the little one is born and I have to entertain them at least until my husband is back home. They were supposed to come tomorrow, they kind of surprised us with their arrival, so I'm a little all over the place right now.
I'm so sorry, guys, especially since these episodes have been rather good.
Feel free to comment and add your own ideas about the show and I'll try to come back later to chat.
..... later edit....

Mati is dead. She raises her hand in farewell from a cloud of white before setting out on the highway to heaven. But Vero's prayers are heard...
And Mati is alive! It's a miracle! And Virginia is sooooooo screwed.
Before leaving for Paris, Mariana carries out her promise. Her special delivery letter reaches Vero at the hospital. Vero now has confirmation that Virginia was indeed Demetrio's lover and was and continues to be Dr. F's squeeze. The best part of all: Mariana reveals that Dr. F and Virginia were faking the heart condition all along!
Vero is so furious that she slaps Virginia hard. [Do it again, Vero!] Vero passes the letter around and each member of the circle now has proof of Virginia's perfidy.
Jorge now puts his foot down. He demands that Virginia leave his house. Much to his exasperation, Salma continues to protect and defend Ginny. "You act as if she were really your daughter!" cries Jorge. "She is my daughter!" answers Salma. Oho!
Marty roughs up Dr. F a little (not nearly enough). Then a hospital administrator fires Dr. F. for his unprofessional and immoral whoopy-making with a patient. It isn't just Vero's word, the man tells him. Several nurses have seen him smooching Ginny.
Emi and Marty agree on a kind of truce. They will fight fair and square for ownership of the alpha female, i.e., Verónica.
Manuel prevails on the Old Goat to stay in Mexico City a little longer. He has a solution to their problems, a way that the OG can return to the Mina Escondida without shame. (We know his solution is to abort AP's baby.)
Julio manages to get the Old Goat's permission to take Ana Perla to church. Pablo follows them and gets into a scuffle with Julio. Ana Perla almost tells Pablo about the pregnancy, but maddeningly, does not. She continues to break Pablo's heart. Julio is growing bolder and more hopeful. Ana Perla is learning to walk on high-wedged city-girl shoes.
During her siesta, Claudia dreams of her Martincito. Pierre, with his newly-shorn baby face, hears her call out the name of his rival; and even worse, hears her say she loves him.
Ramón puts the moves on Nanciyaga. She is not amused.
Gaby brings Joaquín some quesadillas and tells him he'd be So Easy to Love. Meanwhile, Blanquita warns Raymunda that if she keeps putting the Old Goat ahead of her husband's needs, she may be putting her marriage in jeopardy.
Raymunda tells Blanquita that she must forget about nursing school. Blanquita isn't ready to accept defeat. She sneaks out of the apartment so she can check out one of the schools herself.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #12 Wed 9/9/15 (Mex14-15) Federica is a pretty awful person
Here we go!
We get a little refrito from last nights episode, Eloisa says her goodbyes to Fifi and Pedro reminds our dear Fifi of the rules: she's to stay in the employee area, and she can't continue to have mishaps or make mistakes because he does not think she'll be lucky enough to retain her job if she keeps screwing up, for now her job is secure. He tells her that he will ask that Joaquina be the one to issue her her work orders, then he leaves.
In the living room the family is in awe that someone was able to make Eloisa laugh, it had been years since anyone heard her laugh the way she did with Fifi. Fifi tries to find her way out of the big house and everyone sees her, once she makes her exit Anibal says that Fifi really is very pretty- Julieta walks in then and everyone fills her in on what's happened- but Julieta still does not like Fifi, especially because her husband was a wandering eye. Roxy takes a few jabs at Sonia, telling her she lacks the intelligence and wit to ever make anyone laugh, Osvaldo comes to his wife defense but Sonia tells him not to worry, everyone knows that Roxy has "issues"- an eating disorder is mentioned. Man, these people suck.

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres Capitulo 42 Wed 9/9/15 Highlights
Hello, I am just putting up highlights for this episode due to personal obligations. I will try to post something more tomorrow.
- Dan dissapears to Holy Nowhere refusing to marry Ivana out of a newly found sense of care for MD. Ursula tries to bring him back but this only provokes Maly to laugh and cheer as if she was on a football game. Later Dan has been found sleeping in a hotel but supposedly the hosts don't respect their customer's privacy cause Dan is brought home dead drunk . Arango and Isidro had to make him ready for his downfall.
- Isela unwillingly lets out that she actually likes sleeping with Bustamante but Josefa can never be happy and begins screaming, shouting and making aggressive taunts to Isela. If Isela ever betrays Josefa, the Heifer is sure to show her a slice of what paradise looks like.
- Ivana starts experiencing paranoia as she hears the screams of a baby just outside the doors( It turns out it was the servant's baby. At first she screams at him but later takes care of him. Ivana later get's dressed for the wedding with the shaved Gerry offering as her escort! ( He looks better when not shaved just to be honest.) . We later learn that Ivana is going to dump Dan at the altar, just like Dan dumped MD. Her cruel plan of vengeance appears to be functioning.
- Ursula and Arango were talking and we got a new twist for the night dun dun dun : They were NEVER in the ruin!! All was done for shit'z and giggles ( Well we did not get explicit details on the how's and why's but it was mentioned by the somewhat nice looking Arango. Yes he looks better than Josefa.)
- Doris and Orlando inevitably begin budding even closer as Orlando sends her a serenade on phone which was planned by Max, Leo and Orlando ( Family Morales glees, Julian yawns and Josefa pushes Isela back to her Room of Hell in which she begins silently sobbing.). Max had also given MD a very hot dress that made her look non-poor .
- Everyone arrives at the wedding and not everyone is in their best nerves as Maly starts getting anxious about Max arriving with his seamstress GF so Claudio offers to clean it all up. MD herself is also not convinced if she should stay but Max promises her Sev's Heaven's AKA everything will be just fine. Max and Dan almost get into a fight but it somehow get's interrupted when Claudio yells at Max to talk with him.

Lo Nuevo
When we left AP and Pablo last night she was about to confess that she was pregnant but changes her mind. She begs him to leave and he does. Blanquita comes in and AP tells her that her heart is breaking because she will never see Pablo again. Outside, Pablo says he does not know what AP meant when she said that there was something that would link them together, yet pull them apart. He will investigate and find out the truth.
In Vero's bedroom Emi chooses the day of his wedding to Ginny to tell Vero that he never stopped loving her. That he wants to love and protect her. Seriously dude? Anyway, he asks for an opportunity, but Vero refuses, saying she has been left empty, she can never love again. He keeps insisting.

Amores con Trampa #117 and #118 Wednesday and Thursday 9/9/15 and 9/10/15
Amores con Trampa #117
This was a "just the facts" kind of night.
And so we start another night's story with Rocío chatting with Isabel in the Velasco's living room. Isabel says she overheard Rocío talking with her uncle Santiago and did not know she was still working with María. Rocío tells her about going to a meeting with Frederick. Isabel thanks her for confiding in her. Rocío hopes that things between the two of them just improve so they can be a happy family.
Florencio takes a seat at a table in a bar where all of his pals are drinking and playing cards. He is visibly upset and rattled as he pours himself a shot. He changes the topic of the conversation to the very stubborn Pantera. They all chime in with what they think of her: she is single and lonely. Florencio thinks she needs a man to tame her.
Rocío is on her way out and Alberto sneaks up on her on horseback. They chit chat and he calls himself a "salvaje ranchero" ( savage rancher). She tells him that that savage rancher has made her the happiest woman in the world. He wants her to get on the horse with him and go for a ride. She says okay as long as she gets to a meeting with Frederick in half an hour. No problem is Beto's response. The next thing you see is Beto and Rocío riding in a park. Rocío admits she gets antsy about making it to her work meeting.

Lo Imperdonable #81 Tue 9/8/15 Virginia gets revenge
For the record, Princess Juju and Eli are one and the same!
Here we go:
We pick up where we left off last night, crazy Marty corners Ginny and goes off on her, like it's her fault that he came up with a crazy plot to marry a woman to make her suffer- he seems to forget that that was ALL him. Anyhoo, Marty just gave Ginny the best wedding gift ever! Because if she's going down in flames, she's not going alone.
Marty stays behind in the garden and Ginny slithers back into the house, and she drops the bombshell, she tells Veronica that in the interest of honesty there's something she should know: Martin married her because he wanted revenge for Demetrio's death. He had decided to marry her before he even met her. Veronica throws the glass she was holding against the wall with such force that we know the depth of her anger. Marty is going to have a very bad night. Ginny pulls a Judas and kisses Vero on the cheek, then she strolls away, she's probably on her way to kill kittens and burn orphans.

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres #41 Tue 9/8/15: Hit The Road Jack! Or Something Like That
Max and Maria Doloris’s seriously dating has put a serious dent in the evening’s epicurean event. Max’s parents tell Maria Doloris and family that they’re totally opposed to having Max become seriously involved with a scheming criminal like her. Esperanza and Max both defend her and her daughters’ upbringing and fight the accusations once again as baseless. They leave with their heads held high. Max tells Alma and Claudio they had no right to humiliate decent people like that. Claudio insists they’re not so decent, really.
Claud
goes off on Alma for not telling him ahead of time about their son. She begs off saying if Maleny hadn’t just
shown up with the news she might have had a chance. He tells Leo and Clara that he’s not upset
with their relationship and it can continue.
Clara says nope: love me, love my dog--and all its fleas. Thanks
but no thanks!
Doris
drops by while Ari is dripping venomous veracities all around Orlando about Isela
dumping him for her boss. She snubs Ari
who tries to make a dinner date with her.
She takes Orly by the hand and tells him he’s a turd for believing Ari’s
trash talk instead of enjoying his honeymoon.
Ise spent the night at her place—NOT with her boss!

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #11 Tue 9/8/15 (Mex 13) Mistaken Identity
Ah, Fiorella, stop dreaming. No, wait, don't stop dreaming, we need more swoony stuff!
"Gianna! Why are you telling everyone we came from Italy?!" Uh, she's kidding, right? Gianna's proud of herself for making up a great story on the fly, but Fiorella instructs her in the fine art of lying…keep it simple! They're just the daughter's of an old employee of Pedro's, that's all. Simona comes in with a stack of bed linens and even some sleepwear, since they lost their luggage. And a cute uniform for Fi, and some extra clothes, since she knew they wouldn't have any. As she offers Fi dinner and says she'll bring some fruit and tea by later, Gianna is curling up on the bare mattress and has conked right out. Simona thinks she and Fi will get along just fine! Sure, as long as you don't push her over too hard! I'm disappointed we won't see the attempt to get the bed made around the sleeping Gianna.

Gianna's proud of herself for making up a great story on the fly, but Fiorella instructs her in the fine art of lying…keep it simple! They're just the daughter's of an old employee of Pedro's, that's all. Simona comes in with a stack of bed linens and even some sleepwear, since they lost their luggage. And a cute uniform for Fi, and some extra clothes, since she knew they wouldn't have any. As she offers Fi dinner and says she'll bring some fruit and tea by later, Gianna is curling up on the bare mattress and has conked right out. Simona thinks she and Fi will get along just fine! Sure, as long as you don't push her over too hard! I'm disappointed we won't see the attempt to get the bed made around the sleeping Gianna.

Lo Imperdonable #80 Mon 9/7/15 Virginia channels Lenny Bruce (Deny! Deny! Deny!)
Where we left off on Friday –
- Ana Perla has just shocked her family, though not the Patio, by falling in a dead faint.
- Botel has called Virginia's bluff, offering an ambulance and a medical work-up for her latest attack of the vapors.
- All the extras have left the church.
- Unbeknownst to Salma, the priest has arranged for the food from the cancelled reception to be distributed to local soup kitchens.
Now the new stuff –
Salma worries that they may have made the wrong decision. Is Botel sure that Virginia is going to be okay? Botel is wearing his usual aggressively plaid shirt, so we know he's not a guy to mince words:
Señora, si de verdad se sintiera muy mal, hubiera aceptado ir al hospital.
(Madam, if she really felt very ill, she would have agreed to go to the hospital.)
Virginia herself seems bored with that particular tragedy queen routine. She already told them an ambulance wasn't necessary. Sheesh!

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #10 Mon 9/7/15 (Mex 11-12) Fiorella, I love you!
Dante, on horseback, has poor Gianna at his mercy but we are made to go back inside the Big House at El Rancho Los Angeles (ERLA) to witness the aftermath of Eloisa’s dressing down of Sonia about her “convenient” miscarriage.
“You aren’t man enough to protect me from the witches in
this family!” screams Sonia as she
confronts Osvaldo in their bedroom.
Osvaldo is decidedly not supportive, mimicking her manner of speech and
even telling Sonia she asks for it! Sonia
sits down heavily on the bed and asks Osvaldo why he ever got interested in
her. Ah, don’t start, he replies. Sonia deserves an answer: she
dropped her career for him! He sees this
differently as well: SHE dropped her
career because she got pregnant and even implies this was meant to entrap him. Sonia splays her hands helplessly. He died!
You remember how it happened! He
died. Osvaldo finally seems to connect
to Sonia’s pain and is silent.
Russian, one of Dante’s security dudes, has Gigi in his
office. Multi-display monitors show feeds from closed circuit cameras placed around the ranch. Gigi is breathless and tearful as she tells
Russian that Pedro asked her and her sister to come to Rancho Los Angeles. Russian calls Dante on the walky talky and he
orders Russian to hold her until the police arrive. Gigi begs to be let go to find her
sister. She tells him she feels very
badly and dizzy because of her illlness.
Russian doesn’t believe her and tells her to stop lying and complaining!
We cut briefly to a frantic Fiorella, crying and screaming
Gianna’s name. She is distraught: they have her because she brought her here!

Yo No Creo en los Hombres #40 Lunes, 9/7/15
Chapter 40:
Puppetmasters
Isela told
Ho-sefa to forget the revenge. Claudio had terminated their
relationship and her employment. He was going back to his wife and
suggested that she marry Orlando. Ho-sefa couldn't believe her
daughter would do this to her. Isela said she loved her but could
not do what she demanded. She was going to marry Orlando because she
loved him and wanted him to be the first man in her life. She should
have said that ages ago. But Ho-sefa said she would take care of
things. Isela realized that meant trouble.

Amores Con Trampa #115 and #116 Monday & Tuesday 9/7/15 and 9//8/16
Looks like Esteban is getting a little anvil action early. And dare I make a conjecture? Will Maria and Rocio save them all?
Maria tells Jacinto and Susana that she is going to forgive Facundo. They are thrilled.
Unfortunately, when Maria goes to meet with Facundo La Pantera has got him in a compromising position. It’s horse crap. No, literally. She stepped in horse crap. (I believe Fac later called it calabaza de caballo) He chases after Maria. He falls and gets run over by a burro.
Meanwhile in the DF, Rocio has returned. She had been staying at the boutique. Carmen, studying in the Carmona dining room sees the homecoming from the window. She runs right over to the Velascos and tells Rocio that Maria has left for the country and it’s all Rocio’s fault. Florencio decides maybe he and Isa better cancel the trip to his rancho.
Pelancha is glued to the set and tonight’s episode of AI3. The doorbell rings. Feli sarcastically tells her he’ll get the door, don’t get up. Clueless, Pelancha thanks him and tells him to be careful. There have been a lot of assaults in the neighborhood. It’s Francis. [There goes the Francis Free episode streak...Where is Diego?] Francis wants to go to the movies with Feli. The last thing Feli wants to do is go to the movies with Francis.
Jacinto and Susana are on a hunger strike because Maria didn’t get back together with Fac. Maria sends them off to their rooms. Humilde hears a car. Perpetua thinks maybe it’s Fac and Maria says not to let him in. It’s Carmen and Rocio. Rocio heard about Maria’s problems with Fac. She insists that none of this is Fac’s fault.
