Lichita 2/2: A wedding and a barfing
I want to start out by reiterating how bored I've gotten with our Alicia. Since they made her "hot," she's become incredibly bland. Her facial expressions have become so much more stiff and grumpy-looking and she's lost any vestige of playfulness! Her "transformation" has sucked a lot out of this show, sadly. Let's hope she gets it back!
Beto has a flashback to the vile Vladimir boasting about assaulting an innocent 15-year-old girl. He snaps and beats the crap out of him and gets in trouble for it. The jail people believe Vladimir's story of the events. The warden's line: "what, it's not my job to find anything out."
Afterwards, Vladimir goes back to threats. "You may be the famous panther in here, but out there I can do what I want, and I'll seek out whatever family you've got and make trouble for them." Threats are made.

El Hotel de los Secretos #7, 2/2/16 Tuesday: In Search of Sofia's Truth
Lo de Antes:
As stalwart Mama Angela and the rest of the Downstairs staff look on, Ayala tells Julio to can it and Mama to back off while Justice, which must be served, takes precedence. La Ama de LLaves [head housekeeper] Angela has just raced into the staff dining room and demanded her son, Andres, be let loose! El Dective Ayala brusquely elucidates that the gold dinner knife that was used to kill the recently deceased town trollop was found among her son’s personal belongings. (Viewerville sucks in another deep breath. Not the naively noble de Andres!!!) Thus El Inocente de Andres is dragged away to the catacombs which, in this bantam berg, serve as the city calaboose.
Lo Del Nuevo:
Housemaid Natalia races to the ladies’ dormitory and yells for Belen. She tells Belen what’s up and Belen races out in her dressing gown to view the proceedings for herself. She runs to the carriage just as it is about to carry away the only man she knows with a heart as big as the Grand Hotel itself and gives him a sweet kiss good-bye. She looks over at Angela with disgust. “—You have a heart of stone!” “—And yours is a collection box!” Angela fights back her tears as Belen and the others head back inside the hotel to begin the daily grind once more.

Pasión y Poder Martes 2/2/16 #79
Chapter
79: Family History Has Reruns
Caterers
are so easily bribed here and it doesn't take much. It was the only
way to get past security and into the Gómez-Luna mansion. I love
how small cameras are these days. This will make a great exposé if
I can manage it correctly. I don't want to be persona non grata here
until I'm prepared to get plastic surgery and legally change my name.
In the meantime I was able to sneak in in a caterer's uniform and
get some photos not available to the official photographer. Please
don't share these online or there can't be any more. I had a mole in
the household for after I needed to leave, so alas, no photos of
those juicy items.

Antes muerta que Lichita February 1: Alicia starts to turn into Sandra. Dafne is highly sought after. Gumaro has butterflies in his stomach.
We enter in the awkward glam party where the famous video (the one Lichita went into the pool after) (the one with the non-glam pre-makeover Lichita tearfully excoriating Ikonika) is playing to a dumbstruck audience. Well, sufficed to say present day smooth talking Alicia talks her way out of it on stage and gets a big hand from everyone. Augusto and Bea are impressed.
Dafne catches Gumaro poking around in Augusto's study and is unimpressed with his explanations which are as lame as you'd expect. Seems she doesn't like him much now that she knows he's fooling around with her half-sister Luciana. She says she'll save this tidbit of wrongdoing to rat him out with at the right moment.

Pasion y Poder #78 20160201 Francofurter, You Have A Little Weenie (Read the Article for Clarification)
Hospital
Nina breaks away from the nurse and runs back into Erick's room where he is in cardiac arrest. She begs him to breathe and screams for the doctor.
Out in the waiting room, Art and Augie argue with the police. Art suggests that Eladio could have tossed the Ratt over the railing. He's strong enough. The police say that a witness saw Erick walk back into the building. Also, Erick had the necklace that he gave to Monseratt. The witness stated that Monseratt had that necklace when he last saw her. They have a solid case against him. Erick is under arrest and will be taken to the big house as soon as he gets better.
When Clara and Connie walk in, they are told that Erick is in a coma.

El Hotel de los Secretos #6, 2/1/16 Monday: All that glitters is trouble
Isabel runs through the woods in her white dress and white shoes, which is what all the fashionable sleuths wear to chase bagmen through the woods. She slips and falls, and the bagman runs away. Julio arrives and momentarily seems to weigh chasing the bagman vs. helping Isabel, but Isabel wins. "I don't think we can be friends," it sounds like he murmurs to her unconscious face. She comes around a moment later, and they update one another as to why she didn't wait for him.
Isabel says the blackmailer was wearing a cloak from the hotel. Julio says the piano man wasn't even around the night of the "light party," so Diego is lying. Testily, Isa says Diego might be lying, but that doesn't mean he's a criminal.
Meanwhile, in the low-tech crime lab, Ayala tells Dagoberto that Cristina's uniform appears to have been soaked in water. (That reminds me - how come no one ever smells the ashes from the stove that Diego tried to burn it in?) If it was soaked in hot water, that means they tried to wash it. Soaking in cold water could mean someone fell into a pond.
Ayala breaks it down further for Dogbert: There's no halo like you'd see if the blood had already set in. That means the blood was fresh and the cold water washed away most of it.
Ayala has Dogbert dim the lights. Blood is easier to see by candlelight, Ayala explains. The stain is fairly round, which means the wound dripped slowly and didn't spray like you'd get from an arterial wound. This blood isn't from a stab wound. So we've got two kinds of weapons, which maybe means two different murderers. Ayala may be around for a while.
Genaro, the guy from the cantina, tells Ayala and Dogbert, "I can tell you who she was with the night she died."

Ciao miei cari amici! Let's get to it! Andiamo!
Julieta's conversation with Sergio is a total fake out! Fiorella didn't react when she told him the adoptive father's name was Bianchi because neither she nor Pedro heard what Julieta said! Fiorella concluded that Sergio and Julieta made up. They didn't. Julieta felt she owed telling him this latest news but after today she doesn't want to see him ever again! Maybe she'll forgive him one day, but for now, she's outta there! Pedro and Fiorella look after her, confused, and Sergio confirms that he's been dumped.
Alina's consultation with Eloisa about Pilar's insistence that Dante killed Gabriel. Eloisa rejects it out of hand and blames it on Pilar's brain damage from being imprisoned and force fed psychotropic drugs for twenty two years. There is NO WAY Dante killed Gabriel and tells a disappointed Alina she must not tell anyone, especially Federica! Well, too late, she knows. . .she knows that Gabriel was killed, not that Dante killed him. Eloisa warns Alina not to tell Freddie because she is not only vengeful, but she's mad! Alina promises to be discreet and leaves looking a little befuddled.

-- Belén and Andrés announce to their colleagues that they are novios, to the displeasure of Doña Ángela. Andrés later proposes to Belén and she accepts.
-- Alfredo announces that his mother will be visiting the Gran Hotel soon. Having a child is the condition that stopped him from receiving his inheritance. Sofía is squirming at the prospect of making the (inexistent) baby announcement to her suegra quite so soon.
-- Detective Ayala arrives in town and upon performing an autopsy on the dead prostitute, he finds the tip of a gold knife stuck to the bone, inside her stab wound.
-- Diego finds out that money was stolen from his office. He also receives an anonymous call related to the blackmail money from inside the hotel (most likely from Pascual). Diego gives his goon the extortion money and instructs him to eliminate the blackmailer.
-- Detective Ayala discovers that the murder weapon comes from the Gran Hotel’s collection of gold knives. The only people who had recent access to that cutlery drawer were Don Benjamín, Andrés and Julio.

Pasión y Poder Episodes #76 and #77 Friday, January 29th 2016 Ah, murder, taking that final step into h e double hockey sticks.
Good evening everyone! Well, we had another two episodes into one again tonight. There were some stuff left out, and I'll do my best to highlight the important points in purple.
Wow, no repeats tonight, we get right into the action!
As you may recall, Hummy had made some nasty remarks, and had really tested Eladio's patience. Well, Eladio responds by lunging at the old man with his fist in the air determined to strike him. Julia has to hold Hubs back, and assures him that she believes in his innocence. However, nearly being struck doesn't stop the old man from opening his mouth. He goes on to say: that he hopes that this accusation (about Eladio murdering his first associate, Smith) doesn't get connected with The Ratt's extermination. After all, Eladio is still a suspect. Julia has had it with her father's nasty remarks and she shouts at the old man to shut up. "Leave my husband alone, he's innocent", she shouts at her father.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #109 1-29-16 BIANCHI, for crying out loud, BIANCHI!!!
Ciao, miei cari Patio Peeps! No refrito tonight, let's get right to the action. Andiamo!
Freddie's head didn't pop off and fly around the room (thanks for that image, Sneaky) but she did collapse and slide out of the chair onto the floor and she wails as Pilar holds her and cries that she is sorry, Federica was so young and had suffered so much. Of course these people don't know what a closed door is so Dante walks right up and asks what's going on. Now, friends, whoever said that Pilar has more on the ball than she's letting on, take a bow. Pilar and Freddie smoothly switch roles and Pilar begins to cry and wail uncontrollably as Freddie pretends to comfort her. Freddie says, "She's fine, we're getting closer and she was telling me about that evil Maximo. How could you work for somebody like him?" Dante defends Maximo, "He got me out prison, he wanted me to be a good man!" A good man? Freddie thinks Dante's face and demeanor are like that of a beast. No! They don't need help. She will get Domingo. She dismisses him.
Pedro and Fiorella walk through the living room. Fiorella frets about how sad Gianna is and decides she will flash Gianna a smile every time she looks at her. She asks how it went at ACorp. He, Eloisa and Osvaldo plan to meet, Fiorella will attend.
Domingo flirts with Simoneta as she brushes Pilar's hair and tells her how spiffy she'll look when they go on their walk around the Ranch. Pilar is silent, her brow is furrowed. Eloisa approaches and notices this and that Pilar is more quiet than usual. Domingo mentions that she was talking to Freddie a bit ago. Eloisa goes ballistic and leaves the room yelling for Freddie. There's a cute little bit where Domingo clumsily tries to tell Simoneta that he is....he is....enamorado Pilar says with a roll of her eyes!

Antes muerta que Lichita, 29 Jan 2016... Alicia is victim of another prank with a video of her own face and voice... Augie and Sandra have another Face off... Beto and Vladimir meet again but someone slipped her tongue a bit
Santy has no choice but to confirm that he dealt with Augusto:
doing the marketing for ALL his brands in exchange for Alicia being the General
Director of Iconika. Alicia of course
takes it the worst way possible (you bought that title for me!) Roberto tries to twist the knife but she gets
mad at him as well. She leaves in a huff, Santy repeats to Beto (Roberto) that
what he did, he did for love for Ali (Alicia).
Luciana, Nestor and Shush, as usual, are planning and are at
the same time clueless about what is going on.
Santy approaches Ali, apologizes to her. She is irritated
that he was not honest with her, same sin Beto is carrying. Santy tells Augie that he made the deal offer
due to her talents in the job, not only for his feelings. He wanted to see her
progress/climb and he wanted to celebrate her accomplishments with her. He holds her hands and repeats to her that
what he did, he did for love for her.
He tells her that when he told Augie about the deal, Augie had told him
that the front runner for the job was already Alicia. HE wants her to stop trying to justify her
job to others, she deserves to be where she is. Please!!
Alicia calms down a bit and tells him that she did not expect something
like this from him. She did not want to
be treated like a commodity. She did not
want to feel like she owed him something.
He never meant for her to take it like that. She says they have to practice some
forgiveness… (she is no longer mad at him by now… and this is not making Beto
happy (loved his facial smirk to let us know that)
At the cafecito, Makos is talking to a client who stutters a
bit… Elsa and Nacho are spying from the counter. HE notices that, so does she. He tries to set up a date between them. Magos, to his dismay, is definitely
interested in their date. She tells him
about Ximena and have to arrange for someone to watch her. The guy offers to
bring Ximena along.
Beto approaches Ali, tells her that her anger at her
boyfriend did not last long at all. She
is now mad at him. She tells him she was about to make the same mistake all
over again of throwing everything down the tubes to be with him. She reminds him that now he is married. He gets mad and tries to yank his wedding
band off his finger.
Ximena has her reservations about their ‘three-some’
date. She seems to get along with the
guy pretty good. But first they have to
watch a princesses movie on her laptop. LOL! (that’s what I call the test of a
step parent to-be)
Elias is at same table as Bea, he asks her why she picked
Ali for Director. Bea praises Alicia as
a woman who keeps her values/priorities in place and that is priceless for her.
She turns around toward Augie and Luciana at another table and adds ‘I am
talking about loyalty!’
Shush makes the presentation of Augie as the speaker. Augie starts his speech. He is talking about what the API represents,
marketers committed to the families… yada yada… (seems to me from Augie’s
speech he is no longer THAT excited about Beto being the API PRez).
All of a sudden Sandra is there, taking over the spotlight
from Augie. HE is angry grinding his
teeth as he whispers to her.

Muchacha Italiana #108 1/28/16
Recap by Sneaky Two Shoes!!!! Grazie Tantissimo!!!!
(Lots of rehash tonight folks, I’ll try to make it brief)
Gia threatens Roxi at knifepoint and they bond over hating Skankia. Gia is afraid she won’t have appropriate fancy restaurant wear and will look bad at the family dinner w/Gael
Os and Fi talk about nothing, nothing at all – Fed smells a plot and comes asking but Os says he forgot Fi wasn’t a servant anymore and asked her for his jacket. Fi is all ‘yeah I reminded him I don’t serve in this house anymore’ and Fed replies ‘yeah, you don’t serve for anything anymore’ (in Spanish no sierves para nada also means you’re worthless, so, exactly what Fed thinks of both Os and Fi)
Fi beats feet and Fed and Os trade insults, then Fed says she read the cards and death is close to this house, but Os has more faith in fortune cookies than her stupid cards.
Santino needs to borrow Juli’s shower because his is broken and he’s dirty and sweaty. Juli shows no sign of accompanying him to the shower. ( hang in there, it’ll matter later)
Fed and Aitana meet. After insulting her, calling her a polizon = vagrant and making fun of her downfall, Fed suggests they work together to bump off various family members they both hate – starting with Os.
Os is meeting w/Petey and Abue on strategy to beat Fed. He’s all helpful and nice and they notice they change – its all because of the kid, he wants to be a good father and a good example. They gird themselves to go swimming w/the metaphorical sharks.

Karmageddon Discussion: Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse 11/26/16
Let's make pasta primavera and open some vino for this one because we deserve it.
It's
time to figure out what tricks the Televisa writers will pull on us
this time. After what happened with Mi Corazón es Tuyo I am
seriously concerned that most of the nasties of this series will get off
without any relevant punishment, but we can at least vent here about
what should happen to them. Let's start with the queen of the lot:

Pasión y poder, U.S. Ep. 59 (Mex. 74 & 75), Thursday, January 28, 2016: How low can you go, Arturo Montenegro?
Episode 74 – Hell on Wheels
Arturo storms out of the room leaving Nina alone, her lips pale and sad.
The Gomez Luna family gathers around to comfort the weeping Gaby. Julia, David and Eladio know she has broken her engagement to Franco. It is her Uncle Eladio who asks why...
Caridad knows that the mouth-breather is involved with Franco. And the mouth-breather knows that Caridad is Franco's mother. Whoa. Marintia boasts that Franco trusts her more than he does his prometida and assures Caridad that her secret is safe with her. She and Franco were high school sweethearts whose romance has now been rekindled. And she believes that he loves her, not Gaby.
Marintia feels that Caridad should understand better than anyone – she was once the other woman herself. But Franco's mother urges Gaby's adenoidal rival to set Franco free (like Julia's canaries?) and let him choose.

El Hotel de los Secretos #4, 1/28/16 Thursday: This novela is going to the dogs
Anita is here tonight, dusting, waxing and polishing the throne for Princess JuJu's arrival next Thursday. Please don't tell her I sat on it. It's fairly comfy, upholstered and covered in flame-stitch bargello needlepoint.
For all the night-owls and early birds who can't wait to discuss what just happened, here is a posting for you. Parte Uno follows with the goings on at our resplendent resort hotel, which is currently doubling as Murder Mystery Mansion. Parte Dos will come after the sun comes up on the East Coast. [Note: some scenes are combined to make them longer.]
Parte Uno--
Ouch!
Isabel is in Julio's room in the servants' quarters. She is offended when Julio calls her Isabel. It's Srta. Alarcon to you. He gets a slap for his insolence. She's angry that he's lied to her. Julio wonders if she's more offended that he lied or that he's a servant. He doesn't think she's been straightforward with him either, having not mentioned her upcoming nuptials. Isabel says she only found out about the arrangement a few hours before the announcement. They trade insults. He seems to have the last word as he pulls out Cristina Olmedo's bloody uniform. When Isabel says she doesn't understand what he's trying to say, he replies that no, she wouldn't understand, she's been coddled, spoiled, she's capricious. She knows nothing of the real world, his world. Why is he saying these things to her, she wants to know. He tells her the truth of who he is and why he is there, holding his sister's bloody clothing. He's there to find out who hurt her. Isabel is sure no one hurt her, she was dismissed for theft. Julio retorts she stole nothing and he is going to make sure people like her don't make payoffs so justice isn't done. They seem pretty angry with each other.

Antes Muerta que Lichita #89 Thursday 1/28/16. "Tantrums, Entitlement & Other Revelations"
Lets jump right in:
Read more »
Sheila calls Roberto out to the park to figure out why he blew them off the other day. Roberto reveals that he was confronted by someone whom he did not want them to meet. I'm sure by now she is wondering why she did not just use a cell phone like a normal person if she wanted to chat. Roberto makes her outing a little worthwhile by offering to buy her out in exchange of giving up custody of Mateo. It does not take Sheila long to realize that this is a good preposition for her but first she must consult with her partner in crime. Roberto sneakily attempts to set up a meeting with this partner of hers but Sheila is smarter than she looks and does not fall for this trick.
We assume time passes as we get a montage of scenes where Roberto teaches an uninterested Luciana the tricks of the trade, Braulio and Alicia start moving in to their new apartment. Bea and Elias seem to be forming a friendship as Elias spends time teaching her about Iconika.
There are a long list of flaws which are highlighted every
episode so there is no need to rehash.

Antes muerta que Lichita #88 Wednesday 1/27/16. "Santiago Seals his Fate in a Deal with the Devil"
Picking up just where we left off . . .
Roberto and Alicia are discussing the general director position and how he is backing Luciana for that job and working against Alicia. She needs to remember that Luciana is the daughter of the owner. Alicia says that Luciana at the helm would be the worst possible thing to happen to Icónika. Roberto adds that it would be the best for Alicia. She wants to know what he meant by that.
At Icónika, Augusto talks with Elías who tells him to not beat around the bush and just tell him what he wants. Augusto wants him to be an adviser to his wife soon to be ex-wife Beatriz. Elías looks puzzled.
In the board room Valeria continues to serve the coffee and chit chat with everyone there to their delight. Someone actually says the mother is so much nicer than the daughter. Luciana hurries Valeria out of with the coffee cart. Chuchette tries to get them all involved in an "interaction" exercise. She wants them to repeat "I can!"
Roberto and Alicia are still discussing nose to nose. They almost kiss. Roberto throws Alicia having a millionaire boyfriend in her face: she doesn't have time for everything, right? Roberto leaves. Alicia says to herself that she is going to show everybody that if anyone deserves that position it is she. She opens the door and calls Roberto a jerk.
