Lo Imperdonable #109 Fri 10/16/15 RIP Veronica Prado Castelo

Marty, Magda, and Botel are informed that Veronica has been involved in an auto accident where her minivan exploded. Magda cries and rushes to Botel's arms for comfort. Marty looks on stunned not being able to believe the news. They are told that to further traumatize themselves they can get more information at the scene of the accident. 

We take a detour to Pueblo Nuevo, where we find Manny getting his drunk on and recalling his recent rendezvous with Virginia. Oh snap. Manny wants Virginia to be his woman. 

Still in Pueblo Nuevo, we are now taken to Raymunda and Joaquin's new home where we find the two of them cuddling up in bed and talking about Blanquita. They both hope that Arturo will keep his word. Joaquin trusts Blanquita and considers her to be responsible. Raymunda says that Blanquita is young and at the age of making mistakes. Joaquin points out that you can make mistakes at any age. And OG is a good example, because had OG been more firm with Manny, then things would be so different now. Say what? Wasn't he just saying that Manny is how he is because he was born with a rotten soul? Continuity, continuity, continuity. Raymunda says that she had always believed in Manny and can now see that he took out his claws when he had the chance to attack his own family. Joaquin tells her that the baddest ambitions can destroy entire families.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #39 Fri 10/16/15 (Mex 53) Fiorella and the Three Stooges

Ciao, Muchachita Patio Peeps!  I'll pick up in Benito's room where Fifi has had a justified little meltdown in response to Vitto, Pedro and Benito all arguing about her as if she weren't there.  Adela suggests she gets some fresh air and Fiorella agrees and they leave together.  The three stooges pick up where they left off, blaming each other for Fifi's fit; Reynaldo ushers them all out the door:  Benny is still recuperating!

Thugs finish Sergio's beat down with a warning and knock him out for good measure.  Julieta finds him on the sidewalk, a passing couple answer her cries for help and call an ambulance.

You know what?  There is no other thing to call this man except Assvaldo.  RPC on the jerk trying to rap to  Alina, the Psychologist at her office, showing up unannounced and absolutely disrespecting her professional and personal space.  He even comes back later with a present.  My pissivity at her is almost as much as that I have for him. She doesn't seem stern enough and while she does unsmilingly close the door in his stupid face, on the other side she seems to smile subtly and look wistful.  He's a butt hole!  What are you looking wistful about?

Antes muerta que Lichita #19 Friday 10/16/15: Roberto tries to draw a line to Lichita... Luciana threatens Roberto with his false resume... Elsa finds out Nacho's real job... Lichita gets promoted by Sandra and Daphne tells Bea the truth about Luciana.

Good news... i now have a dvdr so i can record the novela... and not miss anything...

ok, on to the recap...

Gumaro is about to open the door, heads to door dancing... Lichita calls out for Roberto, telling him who she is... instantly Gumaro drops to the floor to fake the crippled Gumaro... Lichita pushes the door after he unlocks it and she has to literally carry him to his dining table. Seems she actually believes he dragged himself all the way from the dining table to the door in just a few seconds. He gives her small talk about the medications being hard to get sometimes... She asks about the music that is on, he tells her his therapist suggested to move rhythmically to the music... Gumaro tells her each day he feels like he is getting more and more crippled. He fakes having difficulty pulling the phone out of his pocket to call Roberto...even falls off his chair. He won't let her help him... until he gives in and she dials Roberto.

Antes Muerta que Lichita #18 Thursday 10/15/15 The Episode Where Lichita Mistakenly Lowers her Guard and Luciana's Nice Girl Makes a Brief Appearance


We leave off with the young couple telling the social worker what they discovered while spying on Roberto. They have no evidence to back up what they are saying. The no nonsense social worker
tells them these are very grave accusations and warn them they could run into problems if they continue to take things into there own hands.

Lichita works on the Oki Oki meeting at home and prays that everything goes well tomorrow. Mom interrupts her thoughts to worry over Magos. Lichita chides her for once again helping Magos by giving her money for the tanda scandal she got herself into. Not wanting to argue Elsa changes the subject to discuss how bold Lichita was the day the police intruded into their homes. Elsa also also wants to know how Roberto is doing. Lichita becomes uncomfortable and say they have nothing but a work relationship. Elsa is confused because she confessed a short while ago to being in luurve. Oh look at the time...time for bed and with that excuse Lichita escapes Elsa's further interrogations about Roberto.

Gummaro and Roberto talk about Lichita and the kiss. Roberto does not have time for woman. Gummaro tries to convince him otherwise. He has been focuses a lot on work these days and he also needs to tend to his heart. Wouldnt it be nice if Mateo has a mom.....

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres, #68 Thu 10-15-15: The One Where the Protag Shoots Herself in the Face and Blows Everyone Else's Life Up Right Along with Her Own

You guys, I might have to stop recapping. Because I’m so done with MD, I might have to kill her.

Recap of Ursula reminding MD that they can test the baby to see if it’s half reptilian. Then, practically in one breath, she threatens to harm the baby or take it from MD to raise it (which is the same thing, now that I think about it). MD glances at Dan, surely wondering how the one time she didn’t just ignore the cat call turned into this nightmare. She slowly walks out, in case she incites the nest of vipers to strike, vowing silently to protect her baby.

Lo Imperdonable #108 Thu 10/15/15 Veronica Gets The Dirt Then Goes KaBoom

Marty and Vero let Botel and Magda know that Aaron has been released from prison. Magda does not take the news well. Botel and Vero try to calm her down by telling her that sooner or later Aaron will commit another crime and it will be back to the pokey for him.

In another Telenovela Fashion Horror we find Daniel sporting red pants and wiring himself up for his meeting with Vero. If Virginia double crosses him again then he hopes that Veronica is able to escape from harm's way. That way, Veronica will be able to use the dirt that he'll supply her with to bring down Virginia. Meanwhile, he'll be keeping the money that Vero has given him. 

In another boneheaded move, Veronica doesn't give Marty details on where she's going and who she's meeting. Instead she asks him to trust her. They eventually get to talking about their love and how nothing and I mean nothing will separate them. Not even death. Annd if that's not foreshadowing then I don't know what is.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #38 Thu 10/15/15 (Mex 50-52)

1. The MIVAC team needs a Thursday recapper. E-mail Kat if you're interested.

2. I haven't watched an episode since last Thursday. Many thanks to Lila and Kat for keeping me up to date.

3. Tonight's episode was the worst hack job editing I've seen. Either it was on crack or I was.

4. Since I may have been on crack, this recap will make little to no sense. Seriously, I can't even remember what happened now. So yeah...feel free to add actual, coherent details in the comments.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #37 Wed 10/14/15 (Mex 49) Them's the brakes

Hey, life happens, so…better late than never.  This is very condensed and organized semi-topically

Aitana's parents showed up for dinner surprisingly early in the episode.  They seem…ok.  Aitana's dad, at her request, has prepared a plan for how to improve the Monterrey plant.  Why Pedro doesn't throw a fit about how he's got it under control is beyond me.  Pedro and Eloisa spend most of the dinner praising Aitana and making Fi incredibly uncomfortable. She finally runs out of the dining room.

Antes muerta que Lichita #17 Wednesday 10/14/15

And the story continues . . .

Roberto and Alicia are outside the motel and are being spied on by the Vidal's (the young couple in the car). Roberto is happy that Alicia is changing: she is not letting Chuchette and Néstor boss her around. Well, it was Roberto who told her to learn to eat or be eaten. She asks how Gumaro is doing and Roberto says his illness is advancing little by little but he does not want to talk about it. They get into the car so Lichita can tell him where to park it. The Vidal's are wondering where they are going. Ángel Vidal says it looks like they are not going in and she looks like a decent girl. Marta Vidal says a decent girl would never be at a place like this. She makes Ángel follow them in their car.

Inside the "meeting room" in the "No tell motel" there is a stripper pole to go along with the red furniture. They all start brainstorming so that they can come up with a proposal that is worth a "10". Braulio wants to go retro, vintage, in black and white; Brisa has some graphics already done; but Luciana and her bad ideas will not be ignored. The idea of "angels" is so boring for her she wants something red hot like "Light your passion on our little cloud mattresses." Roberto cuts off that idea saying how Sandra liked the ideas of angels,seraphims and cherubs. Suddenly from overhead there is the sound of a squeaking mattress and a moving bed that poor Alicia mistakes for some worker hammering away and interrupting their meeting. Néstor and Luciana cannot believe how stupid she is. They all start chuckling. Alicia tells us she could not believe she was that naïve or could she?

Outside, Marta sees someone else go in the room and cannot understand what you call people like that. Her husband says a "threesome". She wants to know how Ángel would know about that. He has just heard about it.

Lo Imperdonable #107 Wed 10/14/15 Computer Malfunction!!!

Hey guys. Bad news. I was literally 2 minutes away from finishing my recap and my laptop shut down on me. I can't believe it. Everything is lost. I can't find it. I am totally upset right now. I will do a summary. Hope you guys understand. Thanks.


SUMMARY
  • New character introduced. Her name is Rebeca Rojo. She is interested in Vero's jewelry collection and in Vero's husband. She makes a good impression on everyone. Turns out Jorge knows her father. After some negotiating she seals the deal and shakes hands on a contract with Emi who is smitten with her. She is smitten with Marty until she finds out from Vero (who thankfully did not take lessons from Pablo) that Marty is married to her. Rebeca makes a date with Marty to talk about remodeling her home. Vero can not go because she has a previous engagement (she's going to meet with Dr. Dan to get the evidence against Ginny).

Yo No Creo en los Hombres: #(66-)67, Wednesday, 10/14/15—MD is Forced to Confront the Monsters in Their Lair


Replay/Refrito: Ursula, Arango and Jacinto discuss their plans to take over Vera Duval and make it even more profitable. Maleny taunts Arango about hanging around Ursula for YEARS, but NEVER bedding her—she calls him and Ursula cold blooded. Arango pulls her into him and wonders if her search for a hot blooded man is what sent her back to Ari’s arms. Jacinto comes in and finds them in this compromising position. In his apartment, Max explains Ivana’s journey back to the light to MD, her willingness to testify against Dan, and the scheme Ursula and Dan proposed to baby-crazy Ivana to give her MD’s baby.

The New/Lo Nuevo:
MD is incredulous that Ivana is really going to help her this time, but soon realizes, as Max explains the baby scheme, that Ursula and Dan were behind everything. “Do you believe that the Santibañez want to take my child from me?”  Max totally misses MD’s use of the present tense in speaking about her child, and once again assures her that Ivana is no longer being driven by her intense desire to be a mother, knows that the existence of MD’s baby was a lie, and will now help their cause.

Claudio comes home, and is about to give Isela flack about her disappearing act. Before he can even start, she freely admits she was with Orlando. Then she lies that Orlando threatened to hire Max as a lawyer and tell him he came to the Bustamante house not to see Isela, but to see Alma to tell her that Isela and Claudio are LOVERS, if they don’t withdraw the charges. Isela assures Claudio that Orlando will keep his end of the bargain because he is no longer in love with her, and is seeing MD’s friend, Doris. She butters Claudio up with some caresses.

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 nauseating heated 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.

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.
