Karmageddon for the Rich and Shameless: Pasión y Poder 4/8/16
I
have always loved the concept of poetic justice, of people getting
the fate they deserve. This does not often happen among those who
can buy their way out of it or get someone else to do it for them.
Many – if not most – who can do this have no conscience about it.
Few feel any regret for their actions or remorse for the
consequences; most that do are too late to do more than pick up the
pieces.
Human
crime is not limited to things subject to legal judgment. Many
crimes are social, familial, or both. Most of these are behind
closed doors and at least half will hurt the perpetrator as much as
the victim. All they can do at that point is close ranks to save
face if they can manage to avoid the paparrazzi who – for this crowd – is Dante's Inferno. – D.D.

Sueño de amor, Ep. 22 (4.7.2016) Esperanza wants to believe something so badly, she ignores the reality around her.
Or like we say, 'No hay peor ciego que el que no quiere ver.
The dream love is becoming a nightmare
Luca (immaturus sucrotoxicus) postponed his trip a number of times until he lost his place in Járvar and even when he's supposed to go to Boston, is still here. He offered Adrián an emergency hot line in case he felt the temptation of grabbing the bottle and left the room. After him, Viviana told Adrián how lonely she feels and accidentally drops the bomb: He is a unwanted son. But since every cloud has a silver lining, she looks it on the bright side: Ernesto (Immoralix Vulgaris) never left her. Well, either that or he stayed for her gorgeous bank account.
While packing in his room, Luca has a surprise visit from Anastasia (fauxblondix skankis) and the cameraman make sure that we, and her, of course, see his ''wedding'' ring. Is actually a promise of eternal love ring, a never ending love like the silvery circle itself. She tries to rekindle the fire they used to light in this very room, but Luca is taken and not interested.

Forever 64
Later on, Viviana (MILFus gerontofobicus) asks Ana who did her boob job because she wants a pair like hers. Luca, who swears not being interested in Ana but still follows her around, hears them and goes crazy remembering the motorboat moments he had with the voluptuous blonde. -Mom, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Getting addicted to cosmetic surgeries is worse than crack and she cries while saying that she needs to feel young again to stop taking selfies with a filter. She honestly wants to be loved again like when she was young. I am sure Ernst didn't see her beauty because he was busy seeing the resemblance of her green eyes and the dollar bills.

Pasión y poder, Episode 120, Thursday, April 7, 2016: What happens in Vegas... comes back to haunt you in Mexico (even when nothing much happened).
In which Julia and Eladio suffer, each believing that the other has been unfaithful, and each too proud to tell the other the truth; Nina gets tougher; and Arturo... well, Arturo is still a putz.
Franco the Joker is taking the enemy down. He can hardly contain his glee – he smirks and mugs and grins, excitedly waving his spider-like fingers in the air as he cants his head to one side or the other. He is pushing Julia farther and farther out of the picture. Eladio grows more vulnerable every day. Gabriela still seems bewitched. And the Joker dances daringly ever closer to the flaming abyss.
Julia says goodbye to the tacky charms of Las Vegas and thanks Arturo for providing a few days of distraction away from all her problems. Of course, she admits, flashing him a radiant smile, she is still a little confused. [Oh god.] Arturo, however, has his eye fixed firmly on the prize. He still loves Julia, he assures her – he has never stopped loving her.

Sueño de amor #21 Wednesday 4/6/16
Wow! Another action filled episode. Our questions are finally being answered! So, let us get right to it!
We pick up the action inside the warehouse where La Sombra is keeping Esperanza. He is continuing to threaten her at gun point and threatening her. As the force of special agents engage La Sombra's henchmen, there is a lot of gun fire, hand to hand combat and a confrontation with a group of La Sombra mannequins. As Ricardo wonders which if any of the La Sombra figures are real in front of him, the voice of La Sombra greets him and tells him how much he enjoyed making Esperanza suffer. Ricardo shoots but La Sombra himself is long gone. In the background of much of the scene there in "James Bondish" music playing. Ricardo finally finds and unties Esperanza. He take her into his arms and apologizes for what he caused to happen to her. She just sobs.
At the same time, Tracy is at home on the phone with Mr. Parker, her lawyer, telling him that she does not have to feel sorry for him (Ricardo) because that is the only way to force him (to do what she wants). She hopes Mr. Parker understands. Talking to herself she tells Ricardo, her love, that one way or another he was looking for it (guess she is now giving it to him).

El Hotel de los Secretos #50, 4/6/16: The Party is Over
This is your substitute reporter for Hotel this evening. Ay Caray, so much happened yesterday, I hope tonight is a little quieter. I mean, gunshots, problems with the electric lights. My nerves just can't take it (Anita fans self). I didn't even think the canapes and the hors d'oeuvres were that good at the party. It was too hot and too many overdressed people. No wonder Cece and Diego went out for some fresh air. And to top it off, the guest of honor never showed up, nor any of the Alarcon progeny. It was very insulting.
BREAKING NEWS: The party was a bust. The Lady in Red appeared at the last moment. The missing Anastasio Tagle has been found, dead in a church pew. Investigation is just beginning. Matilde loses a special patient, the One-Armed Pablo succumbs to his bleeding mid-section. Ayala comforts her with a philosophical discourse on the cycle of life and death. Sofia disappears in the middle of the night. Diego keeps losing track of his wife. These and other stories will be in tomorrow's edition.
Part 1
Diego has been searching everywhere for his missing wife. He finds her in Romulo's study with a tall skinny camarero, alone, together, sort of. He quizzes Isabel about this inappropriate situation. Isabel thinks before she speaks. She tells him she was looking for a necklace and thought she might have left it here. She often comes here for solace after her father died. She holds up the necklace (the "Angela" necklace). Diego's original question has not been answered. What is the camarero doing here? Julio has been thinking before he speaks. He tells Diego the senora was locked in and called for help. The room is usually locked during big events (security, dude) and one of the servants may have locked it not knowing the senora was inside.

El Hotel de los Secretos #49, 4/5/16: To Err Is Human; To Be Heir is Andres
Sofia can’t deal with the Big Void in her life; Mama talks her down after admitting she hated Sofia as a child but then learned or realized how much she loved her. Why else had she stayed with her night and day since she went totally bonkers…..(Great minds of Viewerville actually do want to know.) Alfredo gave up on her; she doesn’t deserve him now. If she pulls the trigger, says Mama then Mama will kill herself also.
It was because Sofia had her father’s looks and bearing – Teresa saw his lyin’ eyes and mouth and Teresa’s own humiliations. Sofia was also a very demanding child. She drained everything out of Teresa. Once she was finally able to see Sofia for herself, it was too late; Sofia wasn’t “in there”. Teresa tells her they’ll find the truth together, they’ll find it themselves together. A big mother daughter hug ensues.

Pasión y Poder Martes 4/5/16 #118
Chapter
118: Higher Stakes
People
gamble with all sorts of currency and all kinds of luck, good and
bad. Those who are lucky at cards are said to be unlucky in love.
Some people gamble on both and lose badly. Some don't realize that
there are higher stakes than money like hearts, reputations, egos,
lives. Typically, they also don't examine the odds... or that the
house always wins in the end. – D.D.

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #20. Tuesday April 5, 2016. La Sombra Shoots Esperanza!
Hello Patio Pals! We’ll have to make do with a quick summary until a volunteer takes over this recapping spot.
Triana is still alive. That woman has more lives than a siamese cat.
In a warehouse somewhere in Mexico City’s murky underbelly of crime and art trafficking, La Sombra shows Esperanza his mangled hand or the stump where his hand used to be. We were only shown Esperanza’s horrified expression. All we know for sure is that La Sombra has lost sensation there and that Ricardo is to blame. We also learn that La Sombra murdered Ricardo’s best friend and threatened little Rodrigo with killing his father.
Kracy and Ernesto were getting ready to really know each other, in the biblical sense, but news of Esperanza’s kidnapping interrupts them.
Ernesto mobilizes his connections to look for Esperanza. He also comforts Pato and vows to pay whatever ransom (rescate) the kidnappers demand.

Pasion y Poder Monday #117 20160404
Connie is acting remarkably smug and superior to Gina ever
since she and Mikey hooked up. She’s
like a real relationship expert, now that she’s been dating her stalker, who is
also her husband’s brother. Anyway, she
tells Gina that she needs get back together with Dave. Unfortunately, Dave has been dating Gina’s
sister and Gina is kinda sorta not OK with that. Gina will stick with Jorge, her rebound
guy. Jorge’s kind of boring, but Gina
can learn to tolerate him…she hopes.
Gina doesn’t want to talk about Dave anymore because he and Dani are
happy together. They move onto a happier
conversation. Connie’s got great
news! Mikey should be getting out of
jail soon! Erick’s was faking it, so the
fuzz can’t prove that Mikey tried to take him out. Erick will be discharged from the hospital
soon.

El Hotel de los Secretos #48, 4/4/16: Smoke and Bookshelves
It's night-time. The Gold Knife Killer, or a copycat, stabs Angela's husband Pablo. Pablo screams, and Ayala et al come running. Ayala instructs someone to give Pablo first aid. Meanwhile, Ayala searches high and low for the killer, but is felled by a block dropped from above.
Andres and Julio are in their room. Julio again fails to tell Andres anything. What's more, Cecilia is at their door! She wants to talk. Julio takes her outside. She tells him she did Diego. Julio is unimpressed. Cece says Diego knows Isabel wasn't a virgin, and Cece knows that Julio's the guy. She either says that Diego is filled with hell or that being with him was hell... either way, she's got some physical souvenirs from the experience and shows them to Julio: on her lip, on her neck, on her shoulder. "Montejo did this?" Julio asks stupidly. "No, YOU did this to me!" Cece accuses. She says something like, have your fun now while you can, because the longer I have to wait for you the more you'll have to pay. (That sounds insane. Did I get it wrong? Is she really that nutty?)
Isabel braids her hair. Diego calls her to bed. She dutifully approaches. (I guess Cecilia didn't wear him out after all.)
Morning. Benjamin flogs or scourges himself with a wicked-looking cat o' nine tails, luxuriating in every stroke. Is it a routine flogging, or is this a special occasion?

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #19. Monday April 4, 2016. The Evil Ninjas Kidnapped My Mommy!
At a glance
-- La Sombra abducts Esperanza. Finally, things are moving! We are cooking with gas!
-- In other news: Kracy is being her usual Kracy self, Luca is leaving for Járvar at long last, Mario is attracted to a milder version of his castrating wife and Triana Fonseca is dead.
A closer look
Previously on “How I Left Your Mother”: Ricardo drops the “I love you” bomb and his kids’ Wolverine aural faculties picked it up instantly. Igor (that’s Rodrigo to you) is outraged: “You love her? What about Mom?”. He gives Esperanza the stink-eye. Nikita (known in some circles as Selena) says something unintelligible. Sorry, I didn’t catch it; I’m still working on my Russo-Gringo-Spanish.
We’re back at the romantic tête-à-tête of schmaltz and clinginess. A waiter deposits a giant slab of chocolate something on PatoLuca’s table. The kissing step-siblings agree to have a silent parenthesis of staring into each other’s eyes and smelling each other’s aroma, yet we don’t get a respite from the corniness because they just won’t shut up! I swear, there is a starry-eyed 13-year-old girl somewhere, with a giant bag of jelly babies and an endless supply of glitter sharpies churning out the dialogue for this pair. Next!
Erasmo the builder is so poor he can’t afford milk or tomatoes. Ain’t that a biatch! Meanwhile, another builder over on "Pasión y Poder" has so much money he is sparing no expense to woo the daughter of a millionaire. He’s showering her with gifts: flowers, chocolates, tacos al pastor, quesadillas de huitlacoche, a pet turtle and even a fun day at the fair! But I digress.

Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 7 (Apr 4, 2016)
---Notice: Univision has announced a fork in the Camino. Camino is switching times with Sueno. Camino will be broadcast at 8:00 pm, not 7:00 pm starting Monday night (Apr 4). There has been no reason given why the switch was made (although we might suspect it is doing quite well and they want a stronger lead-in to the show replacing PyP at 9:00).
Carlos and Fernanda are also at a crossroad in their Camino. Fernanda has graduated from the prepa with honors and she has the whole summer ahead of her to decide whether to go to a local university on a full scholarship or study music at a renown school elsewhere. It's not clear where Carlos fits into her dreams. Carlos is ever more committed to a relationship with Fer, but he's faced with Isabela's pregnancy bomb. He wants to keep this information from Fernanda--for now, but too many people in his circle already know. Some want Fernanda to know about it and suffer.
Amelia and Pedro are also at a crossroad in their Camino. Amelia is proceeding with the divorce and plans to tell Fernanda when she returns from her school trip to Cabo. Although she still pines for Luis, she's at the beginning of a new friendship with Lic. Ordoñez, an important bank employee she's met. She's also wants to contact her long-estranged father and to tell Luis that Fer is his daughter. Pedro is conflicted over this turn of events. He's angry and frustrated that all his love and devotion to Amelia in 19 years has not changed her attitude towards him. She does not and cannot love him. She continues to resent him--big time. He does not want Fer to know he's not her bio-daddy.

Pasión y Poder Episode #116 Friday, April 1st 2016 While Julia has a jealous snit, Erick gets busted, and Petra may finally get some romance.
At Casa Montenegro, Julia has arrived to see Daniela, when she spots her ex-husband Eladio with Nina. Naturally, Julia thinks the worst, and accuses her ex-husband of not knowing how to be without a woman. Nina sees this as her golden opportunity, and she's not about to let it slide, so she sticks it to Julia by telling her that she (Nina) and Eladio have just as much right to be together as she (Julia) and Arturo do. With the difference that they (Nina & Eladio) have a clean conscience since they didn't destroy a family. Julia can't believe that Nina has the audacity of accusing her of being with Arturo, when she and Eladio are the ones who are together. Nina can't believe that Julia has the audacity to show her face at Casa Montenegro when Arturo doesn't live there anymore. Before more can be said between both woman, Daniela arrives, and Nina and Eladio leave so Julia and Daniela can talk. (Surprisingly, Eladio remained quiet throughout the scene, was he out of his breath spray, perhaps?!)
In another room at Casa Montenegro, while Nina hopes that Eladio won't get upset with her for what she told Julia, Eladio can't seem to comprehend Julia's behavior. Why was she so irked at the two of them for seeing one another? According to Nina, women are just apprehensive, they love to still be loved, despite the circumstances. Uh, okay.
Meanwhile, Julia offers Daniela her help after she stupidly admits to coming to see her because Arturo asked her to. Daniela is not amused. She already knows that Julia asked David to break up with her. And now this. She doesn't believe in Julia's help.

A closer look
Alfredo is below stairs looking for Belén, because the other wet nurse did not pass the baby’s language requirements, apparently. Andrés hops out of his room and demands that Alfredo give him back his baby. He spills the entire pot of beans: Doña Teresa snatched this baby from Belén’s arms. Belén is the real mother and Andrés is the real father of the child that Alfredo thinks is his. Well, spank him cross-eyed, Alfredo did not see that coming! He is impactado to the bazillionth power!

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #18. Friday April 1, 2016. A Measly Crumb Of Relevance In A Chilorta Of Insipid Fillers
At a glance

-- Estrella and Adrián are officially novios. Lord, save us.
-- Luca still hasn't left for Járvar.
-- Estrella and Adrián are officially novios. Lord, save us.
-- Kracy is hatching schemes and forging alliances all over town to screw over Ricardo and Esperanza. A hotshot lawyer, paid for by Ernesto, will help her gain custody of the kids.
-- Biker Meemaw, Margarita, sexually harasses the musical-mustached Félix.
-- Anastasia has a secret that Ernesto threatens her with exposing if she doesn't stay away from Luca.
-- Ricardo unveils another teensy-weensy chapter of "How I Left Your Mother". His kids hear his love confession to Esperanza.
A closer look
Outside school, a sweet boy delivers a box to Esperanza. Inside lies a black flower. Her kids find the "gift" macabre.
At Instituto Palacios, Félix arrives late and Ricardo reminds him that he should get a yellow card for his tardiness because the teaching staff (docentes) ought to be at school 15 minutes early. Félix does not find the reversal of roles amusing: so now it turns out that ducks are opening fire on shotguns (ahora resulta que los patos le tiran a las escopetas)? Ricardo thinks his supervisor ought to have a sense of humor. Selena imagines a Pokemon fight between her dad and Félix where the latter is defeated and loses half his musical mustache. I will spare you the rant.

Hey patio peeps, below is a quick recap of last night's action!
We see don Benjamin being a total ten on the creeper scale, I'm starting to think he's our killer!
Angela gets caught:
Angela goes into Romulo's old office in search of the sapphire necklace, her intention is to sell it in order to come up with the money to pay Pablo- who is threatening to tell Andre's the truth about his background. The necklace is not there, but Teresa is and she is not please with Angela, she tells her she is to stay out of the office, Angie apologizes and leaves.
We are then treated to a series of flashbacks that show us a bit of the history between Romulo and Angie, how they met, when she told him she was knocked up and the day he gave her the necklace. It's so sad. Also sad? Romulo was way too hot to be named Romulo.

Dark is the night and visibility is low in this kind of costumes, so The Shady shadow knocks Ricardo down like a piñata. Before he runs away, he says something like, ''Sorry Ricardo, me duele la panza'' (it's hard to understand with that mask on). Of course the first thought that comes to Ricardo's mind is his ''beloved'' Esperanza, and the chase is on. People running in a black costume out of halloween season is probably something you see every day in Mexico, since nobody seems to pay attention.
Nearby, muy oronda, unbeknown to her of the danger she is in, Esperanza nibbles on a croissant before getting home. The day was long and she is hungry, so why wait? The smell of freshly baked bread takes her to the streets of Paris and suddenly Ricky Le mime shows up right in front of her yielding a gun. He almost runs her over and both face what he thinks is his nemesis, but turns out is only a dummy. They fell in the trap, because in one of the apartments on the second floor, The shady villain have all the time in the world to take the perfect picture with his gigantic zoom lens. Where does he keep it? Is he renting that place? Isn't easier to carry the Samsung Galaxy S6 and get the same high quality in low light and even moving pics?? He is so bad I am sure part of his vendetta against Ricardo is to post them on Kracy's Facelook wall, just to see the sucking lemon face she does.
After this incident with the mannequin and the gun, Esperanza is perplex and Ricardo is forced to confess part of his secret a cuentagotas (in dribs and drabs). Even when she has been begging since the beginning that she need explanations, she doesn't get the whole enchilada. Ricardo only does what he does best, promises, promises...
