Antes muerta que Lichita #16b Tuesday 10/13/15: I made a redundant post but melinama says I should post it anyway!
Hi guys! I'm gonna be new to the Lichita team. I guess there was a mixup and Cece was good enough to post her own recap, so I'm just dropping in here with a few notes!
Lichita is definitely enjoying being more assertive: she gets the grocery store boss to release Elsa's paycheck (but she's not getting hired again... the boss's jackass grandson is mostly in charge now), and later talks the cops out of her home when they come with the furious neighbors to question Magos about her skeevy neighborhood savings scheme.
In a cute aside, Lichita says "God doesn't hear people who don't speak up.... And I'm not shutting up anymore."

Lo Imperdonable #106 Tue 10/13/15 Blanquita Takes Center Stage And Danna Garcia Enters Stage Left.
Hi all. I'm filling in for Princess Juju who is busy with work. I don't have much time this morning to write a full recap so this will have to be highlights / bullet points. Luckily, not that much happened last night and it was rather disappointing given that we are so close to the end. I have always liked Blanquita and she's a sweetheart but last night felt like "The Blanquita Show" with so much focus on her character. Honestly, I felt that time was wasted on her when we could be moving things along. Oh well, we'll just have to go with the flow with what the monkey writers give us.
Annnd now .. it's time for bullet points!
- Manny flashes back to his
nauseatingheated make out session with Virginia the previous night. He laments that The Gold Scam was an epic fail and vows to make Remigio pay. I'd hate to be in Rem's shoes.
- Marty has been worried sick about Veronica who returns home very late. She doesn't tell him where she's been, but she does tell him that she wants to love him and that in order to have peace she'll have show that Virginia has lied and is a murderer. How will she do this? Well, he'll know that tomorrow night. As for tonight .. let the smooches began.

Antes Muerta Que Lichita #16a Tuesday 10/13/15 The Episode Where Lichita Grows Fangs and People Begin to Notice.
Alternative Titles: Magos is completely and utterly hopeless, shameless and useless!
Old: Quick summary of how Lichita quit her job but family problems including Magos caused her to beg for her old job back
. Robert is not happy with the social workers surprise visit. Her expressionless face reveals that the point…. she is not supposed to warn him. Just as Roberto hurriedly excuses them due to work, a family comes by asking to see the model apartment. Gumarro and Roberto are so busted and the social worker is not laughing along with them. Roberto later runs after her and tells the truth a little too late. The social worker (I really forget her name) lets him know his lies are not making him trustworthy. His actions has consequences and as a result this will make it much harder for him to receive custody.
. Lichita and her mom are happy/grateful with the $$$ they received from the owner. The owner is equally grateful for pulling off the commercial and her commitment to the company. The whole age policy is something he is not content with but in fact it is not really his rule but that of his grandson who makes the majority of the decisions.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #36 Tue 10/13/15 (Mex 48) Baby drama
Sorry, Pedro, but the Angeles Empire is more important than you are. Eloisa's just protecting the fortune. You might be the "favorite," but that just means you have more responsibility. If Max could leave his "love" behind for the good of the family, she expects no less from Pedro. The "right" woman for him is Aitana.
Pedro's still resisting accepting his fate and opts to have Fidel drive him into the city, but not to work.

Lo Imperdonable #105 Mon 10/12/15 Aarón goes free, Manuel gets absolution, and Virginia learns Salma's darkest secret.
Verónica and Martín are exonerated and Prado Castelo is released from the clutches of the crooked Italian
Jorge's face is as flat as ever, but Emi pushes out his lower lip in that bulldog way that says he is unconvinced. He still thinks Vero could have leaked the information. She could have had an accomplice inside the corporation – Nicolás or Berta, say, who both had access to her password and whose departures seem suspiciously convenient. [When did Berta leave, huh, monkeys? Huh?]
Vero argues that the accusation makes no sense – why would she threaten the success of her own collection? She offers to show Jorge and Emi her bank accounts to prove that she has no unexplained deposits. But when the Italian client stops by and yields to Vero's threats to put him in jail as a party to theft of information, it is clear to all that Vero and Marty were uninvolved. Unfortunately, the client refuses to name Virginia as his real accomplice, but he agrees to adhere to the original contract. The crops are corporation is saved!

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #35 Mon 10/12/15 (Mex 47) You Got Balls? I Got a Ball Buster! or Granny Throws Down the Gauntlet!
Ciao, Muchacha Patio Peeps. Let's see what's up with the Mighty Angeles Clan!
Remember Vitto bounching little Beto, Diana's baby, on his knee? Well, Diana's mom did NOT spill the beans but kept up with the cover story that Beto is Diana's sick sister's baby. Vitto flashes back to Adela telling him the sister story is a farce. He asks her name and they both say different names but recover that she prefers one name to the other. The sister is in the hospital and Diana's mom wants to go visit her and has nobody else to watch little Betto. Vitto is fine with that, Diana gulps like a guppy. Diana's mom leaves!
At El Rancho, Osvaldo herds Sonia into their bedroom, pushes her onto the bed and digs her out about not telling him about the pregnancy. He flings her coat at her. They are going to a lab to get a DNA test NOW! He growls again that he will kill her if the baby is Fabio's!
What's this? Fiorella up on a horse this bright sunny morning? Gigi begs her not to leave. No! Fifi needs to be alone. Quina is watching the tearful scene. Fifi asks Quina to take care of Gigi and Fifi rides away!
Aitana and Pedro on the sofa. Pedro is huffing, sighing and frowing and not looking at Aitana. She swears she had no idea of Eloisa's intention but would love it if they were together again. She begs him, for the umpteenth time, to give her a chance. Pedro stands up abruptly. He doesn't have time for this, he tells her: he's got to go talk to Granny!

Yo No Creo en los Hombres #65 Lunes 10/12/15
Sorry
this is short on detail. There was a problem with the surveillance
equipment. I also had to brief a colleague about an upcoming
assignment. So today you'll get just the facts. If there were any
witnesses to this, we need a few stool pigeons. Thanks.
– Dashiell
Chapter
65: Proposals
Doris
felt a male hand caressing her in her sleep. She turned over and
whispered Orlando's name. Then she opened her eyes and saw Ari
standing over her. She had only been dreaming of Orlando. Ari began
questioning her about him. She got out of bed and saw that Orlando
was not sleeping on the couch. Ari began interrogating her about
what she felt for Orlando. She told him she wasn't involved with him
and didn't want him either. He finally left the keys and walked out.
Orlando came out of the bathroom after Ari was out the door.

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres- Looking for a replacement
Hello all . As you may have noticed I have not been active much regarding No Creo recaps. At the eve of the new semester I have begun experiencing troubles on a personal scale. It has been getting tough to get used to it while following shows at the same time. It's easier and more relaxing watching shows than doing something detailed about them like writing summaries.
I admit that at first when I began writing it felt short term but then I began learning more and more I realized that you are either on a podium or you are not on a podium at all.
During my short term absence I have been fairly surprised that many people are eager to help me out just to not disappoint our readers. . If you can find anyone willing to do it than I would be most pleased.
Participating on other projects is very unlikely but I will definitely keep mark of the blog because the people on it are unlike anything I have experienced on the Web. There are many shows getting released that I am looking forward to such as Pasion Y Poder , Gran Hotel, Amor De Barrio and Corazon Que Miente so I am definitely not out of this world even if it it sounds weird for a man . I have learned a lot from writing here and have enjoyed it very much.

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres: Capitulo 64 Fri 10/9/15: So Squee worthy!
Hi all. I'm filling in for JdesdeNYC this week. I'll try to edit this down when I've got fresh eyes, but I'm too tired tonight. But I will say YAY!!! So much about this made me SO happy! So much cuteness, so much of what I love to see in a love story, I almost couldn't believe it! So excited! See you guys on the Patio this weekend!
Scenes sometimes merged and out of order etc.
The Rewind: Claudio’s off to help Max b/c Isela told him and
Alma that the doctor upgraded Dan’s injuries and that just doesn’t sound right
to him. Josefa pushes for Espy and the girls to stay with her rather
than Hono and Julian (so that she/Isela can spy on MD for Maleny). Isela tracks Orlando down at Doris's, but this time he’s not
buying what she’s selling. MD confronts Daniel and tells him to drop the charges
against Max or she’ll raise some against him for arson and rape! He doesn’t
think she has the money or legal support to do it, but Claudio offers both.

Lo Imperdonable #104 Fri 10/9/15 Marty is freed, Virginia and Manny bond, and Julio is shirtless.
Just as Marty believes that his world has crumbled, after being found guilty of fraud, Veronica makes her grand entrance into the courtroom with the evidence that she needs so hubs can once again be a free man. She presents the police report to the judge stating that it says that the gold from La Morenita was robbed by two individuals from the village and replaced with the fake ingots. Judge kvetches stating that Veronica is interrupting a courtroom trail and not following the proceedings she must follow to present the evidence. In the end, Judge accepts to look at the evidence and calls a recess stating that he will make his decision in an hour. After Marty is taken away back to his cell, Veronica tells Jorge and Emiliano that she has found the La Morenita gold and they'll have it tomorrow.
Virginia confronts Manny over him getting her hopes up by making her believe that he would sell her his gold. Manny reminds her that nothing was signed and besides he can't sell his gold for such small earnings. He'd at least have go to up 50%. At that moment, Virginia gets a call on her cellphone that now magically works in Mina Escondida. It's Emiliano who tells her to cancel the gold order from La Perla because Marty's gold has reappeared. He tells her that the gold was stolen by two miners from Mina Escondida. Virginia now realizes that the REAL reason Manny had for not wanting to sell her his gold is because he doesn't have it anymore. She asks him if he's the one who stole it.
Salma pours her heart out to Nicolas and breaks his heart in the process. She tells him that she wants to escape from her problems. It isn't the first time that she has done it and now it is costing her. She wants to start a new life free of lies and deception. She breaks his heart by telling him that she cannot leave with him and that it is best that the two of them not see each other anymore.

Luciana walks the hallway limping due to the broken shoe, yelling at all the employees asking where Lichita is… Chuchette and Nestor are telling Luciana they are NOT mocking her, but they are holding back their giggles.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #34 Fri 10/9/15 (Mex 46) ¡Qué estupidez!
Ciao, Muchacha Patio Peeps! I'm sorry. I just can't get all exuberant and jubilant or the least bit detailed and verbose about what went down tonight. Write this down in the annals of Caray Caray! A short recap by Lila. I can't even. . .
Pedro and Fiorella reconcile and share kisses and promises in the precarious, flowered row boat of love and decide to announce their betrothal at a family gathering Pedro has called. Roxi finds out, tells Aitana who tells Eloisa. The family is all gathered: Sergio, Sonia, Osvaldo, Freddie, Roxi, Julieta and decrepit Queen Bee insists Aitana come as well. First, Freddie usurps the meeting to announce Sonia's pregnancy. Congrats and joy all around. Osvaldo has to be prompted to hug Sonia after admitting he didn't know. Through clenched teeth he whispers to Sonia he will kill her if the baby isn't his. Pedro and Fiorella had tentatively entered the room but retreat to just outside the living room at this announcement and Fiorella asks Pedro if he thinks it's really Osvaldo's baby. Pedro says he doesn't know and is thrown totally off whatever game he thought he had. Sergio insists Pedro congratulate and hug his cousin, Sonia, and he does with his brow all knit and his eyes vacant. Aitana insists he tells them why he's gathered the family together.

Lo Imperdonable #103 Thu 10/8/15 Vero goes for the gold – and she gets it! Virginia? She doesn't even medal.
Over Crescencio's Dead Body
In the quiet and now nearly abandoned church, Manuel holds the knife aloft, poised to plunge it into his sister's back as she kneels in prayer. But when he glances up at the image of the Virgen de Guadalupe, he stops, as if his arm is frozen. He shakes himself slightly and once more prepares to attack. Then he looks at an image of Jesus; again his hand is momentarily stayed. But it is only when he looks at the third image – the funeral portrait of Crescencio – that he really seems unable to continue.
Bam! The open panel on Grandpa Goat's coffin slams shut! As Ana Perla turns, startled by the noise, she sees her brother holding a knife and she begs him not to hurt her. He ignores her pleas. Instead, he chases her around the coffin, determined to finish what he came to do. Then he stops to lift up the panel and view his grandfather's face. His lunatic eyes widen – with what? with terror? with horror? – and he backs away. As he does so, his arm passes into the flames of the candle that burns for Crescencio and he cries out in pain. Ana Perla takes advantage of the moment to escape. Manuel stumbles after her into the night.

Antes Muerta que Lichita #13 Thursday 10/8/15: The Episode Where Lichita has Finally had Enough!
Alternative Title: Luciana Goes Through the Worst Day of Her life while Viewerville Revels in her setbacks.
Great episode so lets jump right in!
Luciana is somewhat impressed that Lichita figured out her fabulous tastes so quickly. Well Lichita is just soooo grateful towards Luciana for getting her job back. Honestly, she just hopes that sooner rather than later they could become friends. Luciana appears to think very hard but then rejects Lichita flat out. Luciana could never become friends with someone so low on the totem pole Puh-leeze! Luciana wants Lichita to work on gathering all there is to know about the Shoe Campaign (Grimwali??). Lichita sarcastically also offers to freely give her ideas and phrases in this report to which the ever confident Luciana rejects. Puh-leeze! What does someone like Lichita know about an elegant, sophisticated, shoe company like Grimwali(??).

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres, Capitulo 63 Thu 10/8/15: Weasels Get Their Way...Or Do They? (Also: Ivana sees the light?!)
Scenes merged and order slightly rearranged and whatnot for summary purposes-
Rewind on…
Rewind on…
- Adrian going over Max’s predicament. Clearly I wasn’t paying attention last night, but as Vivi and Anon207 pointed out, the severity of Dan’s injuries weighs heavily on whether or not Max stays in lock up or can pay a fine for the awesome beatdown he gave Dan. If the doctor signs off on Dan’s injuries being worse than they are, then it’s up to Dan to drop the charges. (Meaning Max would be totally screwed.)
- Claudio trying to convince Dr. Medina to tell him what went down with Ursula and Hector’s death. He promises Ursula won’t find out.
- Ivana telling Jacinto to hit the road and Jacinto threatening to kill Dan as revenge. Ivana tells him where Dan is.
- Dan claiming his beatdown was all part of his plan to take Max down. Now he’s got Max and MD over a barrel.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #33 Thu 10/8/15 (Mex 45)
Indulge me a moment: When I actually sit down and watch an episode from start to finish, it's not half bad. It's got good music, decent performances and costuming that I like or is perfect for making fun of. It's just not a show that I find myself making time for until I have to recap it.
Anyhoodle...the recap. It's not even half-assed today. It's quarter-assed.
The super-duper condensed, hellashelle-patented short version:
Benito drives Fi to her funereal wedding dress fitting.
Vito is there waiting with Raymundo. Vito talks to Ray about Fi. Is not so sure Fi loves him. The fact that she has not arrived for the fitting speaks volumes. Vito is canceling the wedding and the fitting when Fi finally arrives. It's been almost 12 hours and I'm still shaking my head. Vito is thrilled. This would have been a perfect time for him to keel over from a massive heart attack because of the shock, but the writers didn't see it my way. Vito wants to stay for the fitting, but Fi and the designer convince him that's bad luck.
The back story? Benito spent a lot of time trying to convince Fi not to honor her ridiculous promise. Fi told Benito about seeing Pedro "give" that ring to Aitana. That's why she's marrying Vito. She was crazy to think she could have Pedro. hmmm. The way I'm remembering it, there's very little logic to what she said. I'm forgetting something important, I'm sure. Weigh in patio.
So Pedro asks Benito to do him a solid.
