Vino el Amor #108 and 109 (107 on Uni), Tuesday, April 4, 2017: Vino el Missing Jobs, Brains and Scenes
At viñedo del incompetents, everyone is jockeying for position, and let's face it, Gracie and Lilian are winning easily. Luciana tries an all-business approach that lasts about two scenes before she totally folds, while Gracie decides to just plain drop her business, at least her income source, and Grumpy David fires the therapist. At viñedo del competency (which had its scenes cut by Uni because we all know Uni loves incompetency), Miguel is visiting the other vineyard to counsel David on his lovelife, Erika hates her inhaler and Adolfo suggests to the other vineyard that maybe they should for reals implement a water source for (as far as we know) the still-turning-into-raisins vineyards.
Speaking of that genius David, there's a real meeting of the minds as those geniuses David and Gut spar over Gut not yet uncovering the dirty dealings of those geniuses Mark and Juan. Meanwhile, Perla looks for a job and Carito interviews at the competent vineyard, which might be the smartest move in this whole episode. All of these plot developments in the preceding paragraph were cut by Uni.
To figure out the cuts, I watched the Mexican episodes #108 and #109 and I looked at the summary of #110 on the Canal de las Estrellas site. So I feel confident that last night was just a combination of 108 and 109. The cuts to 109 weren't as egregious as the ones to 108. I've noted everything in italics that was cut. I am sure I will have missed some things in this recap, especially not having the benefit of captions or transcripts for the cut scenes, so please feel free to elaborate in the comments.
Also my apologies for being somewhat absent as of late. I've barely got time to watch Vino el Amor the American version. Kind of annoyed that Uni is going to force me to watch virus-laden bootleg videos to figure out what was cut. Work and life are just super busy. I really appreciate all who subbed for me with recaps the past few weeks - Thanks!

La Piloto #21 4.4.17: In Which Yolanda Faces Some Harsh Truths...
• Yolanda is filling in Rosalba on her life since her coma. Rosalba tells her that her father would be so proud to see how far she’s come as a pilot but sadly he’s dead. Yolanda remembers when the police shot him and she witness everything. Rosalba is shocked to learn how fast she learned to fly and then asks Olivia and Lizbeth if they work in CAA. They shake their heads and Rosalba remembers what she read on the news. Rosalba can’t believe they dealings with drug traffickers. Lizbeth explains that only a bar would hire them now as John comes with good news but stops himself when he sees Rosalba. He is glad to see Rosalba is going better and Rosalba thanks him. He then asks to speak to Yolanda alone and they go off.
• Outside, John asks Yolanda why she looks so scared and Yolanda reminds him that Rosalba doesn’t know they were also involved in the drug trafficking. Yolanda will take Rosalba to Altamirano in a couple of days, as soon as Carlina gives the okay, so she needs his help so she doesn’t find out the truth. John agrees and then jokes with her about how good of a pilot she is. He then brings her a device to plot cell phone locators on outgoing calls since he imagines she wants to call her mom. She kiss him and thanks him for always thinking of her.

La Piloto #20, 4-3-17: Zuli's Black Magic Backfires; Amanda Has A Crash-landing
**[Also, just a reminder that HULU+ no longer is carrying LP. If your cable/satellite service doesn't carry Univision or On Demand with it added then if you are signed up with Univision/UniMas you can stream (for a charge) and you will be able to watch it there.** --ed.]
• The gone gals cannot stomach the rowdies at Olivia’s table. Yolanda tells them to suck it up. Life could be worse and to ignore it. (I believe—no CC’s and crap audio.)
• John calls and asks Yoli what was up with her madre. She doesn’t know the location of the hideout or anything right? She won’t be talking? Right….. She’d better hope not. One of the guerreros saw DEA Dave pay a visit. Yoli goes to the office/back hallway? and calls to get the 411 on Dave’s visit and to double-check that Mum kept mum. She warns her that John has threatened they’ll beat her to a pulp [hacer picadillo=make mincemeatof her] if she does open her trap. When Yoli walks back into the bar there’s a skirmish with one of the drunk rowdies who’s trying to force Amanda out back. Yoli has him thrown out but the leader of the pack calls YO! on it and she pulls a gun and aims it as his lower vitals….then at his head. Try her! Just try her! “—We’ll meet again!” “—Yeah? You know where I am!” The gals later gripe at Zulima for not standing up for them as head waitress/bartender.
• Zulima suggests a bit later that Yoli try some alternative medicine, aka curandera, witchdoctor stuff to try to heal Rosalba, like they used to do in Zuli’s neighborhood when she was growing up. Zuli plies her “magic” then turns it into black magic hoping to kill her through her black arts.

Vino el Amor, Lunes 4/3/17 Chapters 106 & 107: Sometimes Love is Not Enough / Hearts of Different Kinds
We pick up with the closing moments of the last chapter, where Juan gloated at Susan and Luciana, calling them all failures and saying that their lands will be his shortly. [Refresh my memory, fellow flies on the wall, but didn't Juan barely make the grade back at university?] Miguel entered the scene to stop this, but Juan didn't hesitate to insult him and his sense of loyalty. Miguel didn't take the bait and neither did any of the ladies, although Susan and Luciana knew that David would be disappointed.

La Piloto #19, 3-31-17: The Shooters Get A Hooters And Dave's Still Got Squat
• Dave is suspicious about Simpson’s whereabouts at the time Zeki Yilmas was murdered. However, Simp-sone has a great alibi: he was sleeping with Monica. Of course Dave is supposedly overreacting and Simpsone makes him feel like a nosey peeping Tomas.
• John and Oscar have bought the local watering hole and called it “Beautiful Sky”. However, their new waitresses, the gone gals, are having problems fitting into their new uniforms: skimpy midriffs and hot pants that barely cover their minuscule bottoms. Yoli tells them to buck up and she’ll see about talking John into something a bit more concealing and less revealing. It could be worse…..It is that Oscar wants them so (pardon the possible pun) uptight they end up leaving. So don’t give in and she’ll try persuading the O’s big bro to get them something else.

Vino el Amor, #105, Friday Mar 31, 2017: Sour Grapes
Fernanda nervously says that she was nervous. Why were you so nervous? You studied. I don't know, I had a lot of things in my head. All you had to do is pass this exam, not to think of other things. Forget about seeing Tano for now. We're going to study until you pass this exam. And to prevent further distractions, I'm going to have your aunt and grandmother leave. NO! She can't leave! I thought your aunt would help you, but I see she didn't. Sorry, Fer, things are going to be that way.
Yes she helped me. I need her, she's the only one who understands me. Evidently that's not so, Fernanda. I can't believe you're not being serious about your future. Don't you understand the importance of going to university? I swear I studied, you saw me, we studied together. You are not taking this seriously enough. Don't you realize you're taking away all I have left of my mother? (You still have her earrings, Fernanda. I promise they're way better than Graciela.) He screams in her face, ENOUGH! Your privileges are over, and that's it!
Grace comes in and tries to calm Fernanda. Grace looks at the test results and praises Fernanda for beating her previous score. She asks Fer what happened. Fer repeats that she was nervous. "That's no excuse! I asked you to concentrate!" David exclaims. Grace points out that Fer did study. "Sure, but don't you see that wasn't enough? AGAIN you've exceeded my patience, and now things are going to start changing for you."
Fernanda is starting to panic and pant. She swears that she studied. David just shakes his head.

La Piloto #17 3.29.17: In Which Yolanda Realizes that Estela Will Always Be the Same...
• In an interrogation, the prosecutor reads Zeki his crimes as Simpson walks in and introduces himself. He tells the prosecutor that his boss in North America is in charge of the case against CAA and Zeki is to be tried in the US. Zeki tells them that if they want information on the Lucio organization, he needs immunity.
• In a mechanic shop, Yolanda tells Zulima that they have to leave Tres Fuegos as quickly as possible and she’d rather not tell her where they are going for her own safety. Estela runs out of the bus, screaming that she’s hot. Yolanda asks her to calm down and Zulima introduces herself. Estela congratulates Yolanda on finally finding a friend with class and introduces herself. She offers Zulima to see with her and they all go inside the bus.
• The DEA agents pick up the signal to Estela’s wire but they can’t pinpoint the exact location because they are on the move. Dave asks that they follow it and get every man on it because John Lucio doesn’t escape justice. Ortega reminds him that neither does Yolanda.
• In the bus, Estela tries to get information out of the girls and Zulima about where they are for the DEA. Zulima gets annoyed at how much Estela talks and goes to sit with Yolanda. Yolanda thinks she’s just nervous because she’s usually quieter and Zulima asks if it was a good idea to bring. Yolanda tells her that the alternative was to leave her and Zulima reminds her that she’s been anything but a good mother. Yolanda hopes Estela doesn’t betray her again.

La Piloto #16 3.28.17: In Which Yolanda Considers Her Options...
• In Dave’s office, Dave confesses that he doesn’t think they should use Estela but Ortega reminds him that they have no other clues or tips to find the Lucios so Yolanda is the next best thing. Simpson thinks it’s a good idea and asks if Estela accepted of her own free will; Ortega confirms she did for a reward. Dave is shocked to hear this but Ortega reminds her that she is the mother of a criminal. Dave asks Simpson about his meeting with the air control employee and Simpson explains the airplane disappeared from the radar and that’s that. Dave could’ve sworn he worked for the Lucios but Simpson doesn’t think so. Ortega goes to take Estela to one of the hotels the DEA uses and Simpson offers to take her so they can have a coffee.
• In her hotel room at the Lucios, Zulima does a ritual while remembering all the times John used her for sex and then threw her away like yesterday’s trash.

La Piloto #15, 3-27-2017: The Rumble And The Aftermath
• She gets into another plane—but has left her black backpack of who remembers what goodies-- and trawls off after John in one of his other planes while the shootout at the Narc-O.K. corral continues on the ground.
• Daverto sees the last plane racing down the runway and he has Simpson and some others jump into a couple of SUV’s to face Yoli down. Simpson is screaming about crashing into the darned thing. Dato is single-minded, if nothing else, and plays a high stakes death-defying double-dawg-dare-ya with Yoli. YO! lifts off at the very last second before crashing head on into the SUV’s.
• Yoli is all smiles at what she’s pulled off. Dave has somebody get hold of the flight tower near by or ??? He wants to know when and where the 2 planes and a copter land so the Feds can send in the troops.
• John gripes that the radios in his plane don’t work. He has to use his cell instead. He calls Oscar who’s got Arly watching over Rosalba. She’s dying/half dead and O doesn’t have the slightest idea what to do. Well, inform Yoli and see if she’s gotten off ok. O warns his brother that he’s not ready to risk life and limb for someone who he doesn’t know or care a fig about. John urges him to play nice till he can figure out what to do with the woman.
• Yoli tries with her radio but it’s worthless as well. She tries using her maps.
