Enamorándome de Ramón #22; Friday September 8, 2017; Fabiola and Ramón become “Novios” (boyfriend/girlfriend) or The Truth Comes Out!
Andrea falls asleep with the home video on. At first what
is on is another family party, but then it appears that Katy and Ricardo
accidently left their video camera on record while they were discussing the
life insurance policy. They go through the list of family whom they might
consider being the beneficiary. The idea of Hortensia gets thrown out
immediately by Ricardo because she doesn’t get along with their daughters plus
is so controlling. So they both agree on Juana being the beneficiary of the insurance
policy. They agreed that when the girls were old enough, they would change it
to their daughters’ names. But anyway, they decided that they would not die. Ricardo
signs his name, but makes a mistake on his signature. Katy says it’s good
enough because to write over it would make it worse and that was it. Unfortunately
Andrea slept through the whole thing!

La candidata Friday 9/8/17 Capítulo 61 Gran Final Parte 2 : The End----OR: A Day Late and a Dollar Short
Well, I have come full circle. When I heard that Caray was going to cover "La candidata" I watched the very last episode. The final scene of the last episode is what made me want to recap this novela. So, I am coming back to where I began and a very fine ride it has been.
Thank you to Urban, Alfredo, Anita, Cynthia, and Sandie for being a great recapping team to work with as well as all of the commenters and readers who stopped on by. All of you made this so much fun.
Campaign appearance--Regina's appearance is being held in front of the Monument to the Revolution. Regina arrives to the chants and cheers of the crowd. Escalante is there, too, when he gets a phone call from a very angry Gerardo shouting that he wants to see him. It is urgent. Escalante tells him he can't come because he is at an event. Gerardo demands to know with who. A drug trafficker? Who? Ignacio shouts at Gerardo to stop. Escalante's mood has changed and he surmises that Gerardo wants to play hardball. Gerardo better hope that nobody has listened to him so he doesn't have to suffer the consequences. Gerardo isn't afraid of Escalante's threats. Escalante calls him a fool and clarifies the situation: he does not threaten, he acts. Gerardo will see. Escalante hangs up.

Enamorandome de Ramon #21 9.7.17: First Kiss
Hey everyone!
Today is my recap day but I haven't been able to see Ramon this week because of Irma. I am sorry to do this but I just haven't been able to concentrate on the recaps. SANDIE was kind enough to provide a summary for you guys.
Thank you so much, Sandie! I greatly appreciate your help with this. Be safe everyone and talk soon :)

• Osvaldo playing Roulette at a casino loses $4,000 pesos and wonders why people told him it was easy. Seems very frustrated, and then Mireya shows up and asks Osvaldo if Susana is there and confirms that she is not there. They have a civil conversation, and she gives him really good advice about never coming back to casino. She is very friendly to him and tells him she likes him, and Osvaldo likes her back and plats a kiss on her cheek, she looks at him funny, but thinks nothing of it. He leaves with a smile on his face (dirty little boy)

La Candidata, Capítulo 61; Thursday September 7, 2017: Grande Finale, Part 1
Previously, the last thing we heard at Casa Barcenas was
a single gunshot and sirens in the background before the scene faded to dark.
This episode begins with the SWAT team everywhere, reporters abound, and chaos
seems to ensue. The only inside shot we see is what appears to be Noemi sitting
on the floor with blood on her abdomen. Reporters do not know who has been
shot. Was it Regina? Who? We see Cecelia coming through trying to find out what
happened, but the police are not letting her through. We see a gurney being
taken to a waiting ambulance. Finally we see Noemi walk out escorted by a
paramedic. Finally, we see Regina walk out. Both appear shaken, have blood
splatter, but safe and unharmed. Cecelia looks at Regina, closes her eyes as
they tear up.

Upcoming Telenovelas: Stevey's Notes (Pt. III) – September 7, 2017
PART III – TELENOVELAS
FARTHER OFF INTO THE FUTURE
Read more »
PRODUCTION #9 - Nicandro Diaz, fresh from El
Bienamado is apparently going to be doing a remake of famous telenovela
from Colombia, Las Juanas, so named
because it's a story about four women all named "Juana-(something)" à la
Anas in TVA.
PRODUCTION #10 – José Alberto 'El Guero' Castro, who should be ashamed of himself for how
little he did with a good story, great cast, and terrific setting in Vino el Amor, is hoping to try his luck
with one of my favorite types of stories, that with an 'antagonist-protagonist'
(think Teresa or Rubí but more evil).
The three classics he submitted to Lord High Ocampo were, apparently, La Sonrisa del Diablo, La Mujer de Judas,
and, my favorite, El Angel Caido. BUT... apparently she was having none of it,
and told him that his last remakes have been, well, porquerias and fracasos and
that he'd better find an original story to do, or he's off to the freezer to
join Emilio Larrosa. So we'll have to wait and see what he comes up with.

La Candidata 9/6/17 Chapter 60: One, two, three, four deaths? And the resurrection of a Narco or Cecilia finds that all doors are now closed!
Thank you Urban for allowing me to be part of this recapping team. I feel a little sad that this TN is coming to an end but am completely thrilled with the fact that I got such an amazing episode. Also thank you to everyone who visited us on this patio, and a special thanks to Jarifa, Alfredo, Cynthia, Urban (again) and Anita for your amazing contibutions to this Blog and La Candidata Recaps.
And now on to the recap......
Alonso chiding Emiliano, tells him
“Are you going to
run to tell your mother so she can ruin your life, when it’s just beginning? “
“You have two
options go to mommy or let me help you to get rid of this problem” (referring
to Ximena’s pregnancy)
In his office Escalante sends goons to go get Lorena Sanchez, she is being
held in her apartment.
Mario tries to convince Regina not to turn him in, he uses guilt.
Regina tells him “You think I wanted this situation, you leave me no
options” to which he replies
“let me talk, you
want the truth, then let me talk, you were born in gold crib, but I built that
crib., when you are privileged you are able to talk about morals quite easily, but
not me I was born in the worst of neighborhoods, where pain and violence live
everyday with you, that is how my brother died, he was very sick he could not
get a surgery because of lack of money.
My friends and I were always sick, because there was no potable water,
no food.”

PART IIB – TELENOVELAS IN
THE NEAR FUTURE

Here we go with the rest of the telenovelas that are now in production.
PRODUCTION #6 – ME DECLARO CULPABLE – PRODUCER: ANGELLI NESMA MEDINA
**No broadcast date for Mexico announced yet, but in production.**
I'm excited about
THIS story!! The name 'Univision' is already being associated with this
production (i.e. a 'Televisa/Univision' production). You guys might be
surprised to hear there is one country that isn't Brazil (or, of course,
Mexico) that has produced some really terrific novelas, most especially in the
new millennium. Indeed the number of productions that have been produced in
Mexico that were actually remakes of Argentinian originals is really quite
staggering, including some that I think a lot of people would consider so
intrinsically Mexican so as to be a part of the culture and country (Simplemente Maria is the one that comes
most immediately to mind), as well as some very prominent or popular novelas
from closer to our time (such as Amores
Verdaderos, Alma de Hierro, Rebelde, Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse, Una
Familia con Suerte, Un Gancho al Corazon, and I could go on). This decade, especially, I don't know how or
why, but Argentina has come out with telenovelas that are absolutely Awesome
(you'll please note that's capital “A'' awesome), and a true credit to the
genre. Giselle Gonzalez's next project is a remake of a recent Argentinian
telenovela and so is this one of Angelli Nesma Medina.

Enamorandome De Ramon, 9/6/17 Chapter 20: Hortensia the Horrible Hatches new plan to get rid of Ramon
Repeated scene: Luisa and Juana are talking about the trouble it would
bring to them if the witch AKA Hortensia found out that Juana and Fabi were
dating, if they were dating. Nosy Dalia is listening when she hears Juana say
that if it was between Fabi and Dalia she would prefer Dalia (fewer problems).
Dalia thanks her lucky stars.
New Scenes: Dalia does not hear when Juana says if she had no choice
Dalia would be it, but the best would be for Juan to find someone completely
different. She says that if Dalia and Juan got together and they had problems
their friendship (Luisa and Juana’s) would suffer. They agree to try to avoid
having problems in that case.

Chapter
59: Confrontation
Confrontation
is something many people fear and avoid. Usually it accomplishes
more than it destroys but there are many who are destroyed not by
what they discover about others but about what they discover about
themselves. This is what many people in power truly fear because
there is often no worse exposure than the one to oneself.

Upcoming Telenovelas: Stevey's Notes (Pt. IIA) – September 5, 2017
PART IIA – UPCOMING
TELENOVELAS NEARLY HERE (OR ALREADY HERE)
Read more »
Let's hope for
the best for the future of our telenovela world. Without further ado, let's let
Stevey get to the productions themselves! Now, again, these are all TELEVISA
productions. Which of these will actually get broadcast in the U.S. or when, is
anybody's guess, but if he has ANY further information as to “yea” or “nay,” he
will make sure to note it in his summaries. Here he goes! :-)
PRODUCTION #1 – MI MARIDO TIENE FAMILIA – PRODUCER: JUAN OSORIO
**Mexican debut
was on June 5, 2017.** Currently broadcasting on Univision, but I had this
written before it started airing, so please indulge me, okay?
First off, I have
to confess that I can't stand Juan Osorio. I think he's a megalomaniacal idiot
living off of his past successes, who patronizes his viewing audience more than
he does anything else by not offering anything of any depth or real quality,
just his dancing spawn Emilio (the product of his liaison with the BSC Niurka
Marcos, a woman who had her own talk show where she interviewed her guests in a
hot tub, and whose general classlessness is almost impressive in its absoluteness—and
who appeared as herself in Mi Corazon es
Tuyo), ad nauseam (you'll have to forgive me here as I deplore nepotism). In
talks about his next production, the currently airing Mi Marido Tiene Familia, Osorio went off on this screed about the
genre and the deplorable direction that telenovelas were going. He decried productions
in the vein of La Piloto and, well,
pretty much anything that Telemundo is airing, really, for being all about
drugs, violence, random killings, and generally speaking, not-nice things, CERTAINLY
NOT what should be on television during “family hour.” He said HIS production
was designed to take the genre back to where he (being all-knowing,
life-giving, all-powerful, and all that stuff) feels it should belong, and away
from things like gratuitous S&M scenes and torture (as was depicted
recently in Sueño de Amor, produced
by…uh…oh…wait for it…YOU, Sr. Osorio…hypocrite much?).

Mi marido tiene familia Monday 9/4/17 Capítulo 10: Too Much Tequila
The bar: Blanca and her sisters Belén and Linda continue their tequila shots. They are all tipsy at this point especially Blanca. Blanca is is telling the story of what happened at the marketplace so many years ago. The pain was so bad that she didn't know when she left her little boy go. She kept calling for him as strangers took her to the hospital. She accepts that what happened was her and her son's destiny. Yes, destiny can be that cruel. Blanca thinks back again to the hospital how after her baby was born she was still asking for her son. She struggled to leave her hospital room to go looking for her Juan Pablo or at least to find a phone but the nurses held her back. After all this time, Blanca still feels so responsible even though her sisters remind her that she fainted in the middle of it all. Her sisters say she was not guilty of anything. Blanca is now sobbing. Amalia thinks it is time to ask for the check. Belén orders another bottle instead and yes! she will pay for it. Belén asks Blanca about maybe having a symbolic type of funeral with a gravesite at the cemetery so she could visit Juan Pablo. That just starts a drunk Blanca sobbing again but then she agrees slurringly that at least she would have a place to go and cry. After making another toast Blanca decides they should all sing. She needs to sing and smile but then she starts sobbing. She imitates her dance instructor laughs, sobs and has another shot. The sisters start to sing.
Imelda's house--Imelda is on the phone with Ana who stopped by to see her earlier but she wasn't in. Ana tells her that Tulio her son is at home. Does Imelda want to talk to him? Imelda insists on going over to Ana's to see Tulio. She wants Ana to send her driver for her and not tell her son she is coming. She wants to see if he will even remember who she is. Ana asks if she is sure. Imelda says she can always take a taxi. Ana looks upset.

Enamorándome de Ramón, #19, Sept. 4, 2017: The Kiss That Almost Was
Here is the recap, courtesy of RGVChick:
Some scenes combined for continuity
[Previously: As Ramón approaches, Fabiola runs to him and gives him a big hug, but he stands firm with a serious look. Fabiola’s mood turns somber when Ramón confides that he has come to resign from his job.] Despite Fabiola’s efforts to convince him that he needs to stay because she already lost Juana and doesn’t want to lose him too, Ramón is adamant that he must leave his job for fear of causing more problems…and his mother asked him to. There have been too many problems and they know Hortensia won’t let up. Fabiola fears that Juana won’t see her either and thinks it unfair. She is disappointed that they’re giving up. Even though Fabiola asks him not to leave if he cares for her, Ramón is still apprehensive about the possibility that Hortensia will show up at the shop and have him sent to jail. When Fabiola sees that Ramón is not budging, she pleads with him to stay because they will be down a mechanic and he will be hard to replace. This makes Ramón wonder if it’s Fabiola or the “owner” who is asking him to stay, but Fabiola assures him it is both; nevertheless, Ramón says “no” to both and walks off to go talk to Antonio. Refusing to be defeated, Fabiola quickly texts Antonio warning him that Ramón wants to leave and asks him to please not let Ramón go.

La Candidata 9.4.17 Chapter 58: Who Will Survive and What Will Become of Them?
Hey all! This is my final recap for this novela and I wanted to say a few words to those who were with us every step of the way.
First, I’d like to thank my fellow recappers, Sandie, Cynthia, Anita, Jarifa, and our leader, Urban. You are all amazing and talented people and our team was stronger for it. We battled some crazy scheduling (I couldn’t have remained sane without your help) but we came out stronger on the other side.
To our faithful commentors, SpanProf, Lynette, Loriloo, Steve, and many others, I thank you for taking the time to leave behind words of encouragement for now and the future about this twisty tale. It’s you guys we do this for and it’s a gift to have found so many kind people to share it with.
Please know that this patio was very special to me and I hope to see all of your again very soon (hopefully another Giselle Gonzalez production) ☺
_________________________________________________________________________________
Regina now knows that Noemi was telling the truth and Cecelia is, in fact, her sister but Cecelia tells her that Noemi barely knows 10% of the truth. Gerardo tells Regina that he came to tell her this but Cecelia stops him because only she can tell Regina the truth. Cecelia confesses that she has known Regina is her sister, her whole life, and she feels relieved because she finally told her the truth. Regina reminds her that she slept with Alonso and Emiliano, whilst knowing she was her sister, but Cecelia explains that she was able to do it because she hates her. In fact, she reminds herself how much she hates Regina and that has given her the strength to do what she has done and she can do a lot more. Regina asks her to leave but Cecelia refuses and tells Regina that she is not better than her because they are sisters and that means they are the same, no matter how much she denies it. Gerardo tries to get Cecelia to leave and screams for Daniela to call a doctor, as Cecelia doesn’t look well, but Cecelia announces that she’s good and they aren’t calling anyone. She stands in front of the door and blocks their way.

Upcoming Telenovelas: Stevey Weighs In (Pt.I) - September 3, 2017
This Post comes from our beloved commentator Stevey, observer of all
things telenovela, which fits right into all things CarayCaray. His discourse
will be posted in three parts over several days: Part I—Behind the Scenes at
Televisa (a must read, in my opinion); Part II—Upcoming Telenovelas
(some sooner than you think); Part III—Telenovelas Farther Off in the Future
(or never). Be advised the opinions expressed in this post are entirely Stevey’s
and not necessarily those of the CarayCaray blog.
Note of caution: some of the narrative in Part II especially, contains information that could be considered spoilers, so use caution if you don’t want to read too far ahead (Anita has marked tell-tale storylines with a à.)
PART I - BEHIND THE SCENES AT TELEVISA
Hi everybody! First off, I'm SO sorry that this has been so unconscionably late in getting to you all (Stupid life! Slow DOWN a bit now and then, will ya??), but I really never DID forget about you, and I've actually been working on this for quite some time now (as you will, undoubtedly see), both as a result of my own loquaciousness (read: long-windedness, not knowing when to stop or shut up, etc.), as well as the fact that these situations are always constantly evolving, or at least changing. I also always want to make sure as much as I can, that anything I put out there for you guys is actually a verified FACT (no 'Fake News' here!), HOPEFULLY by contacts within the network, but if not, through viable sources, and this sometimes isn't always that easy to come by. There's actually been all kinds of network drama going on over at Televisa in regards to telenovelas, an inordinate amount, really…lots of unhappy actors, and a lot of producers gnashing their teeth and clutching their 'stress balls' more tightly than usual. But I hope you'll enjoy what I've got for you all.

I also always want to make sure as much as I can, that anything I put out there for you guys is actually a verified FACT (no 'Fake News' here!), HOPEFULLY by contacts within the network, but if not, through viable sources, and this sometimes isn't always that easy to come by. There's actually been all kinds of network drama going on over at Televisa in regards to telenovelas, an inordinate amount, really…lots of unhappy actors, and a lot of producers gnashing their teeth and clutching their 'stress balls' more tightly than usual. But I hope you'll enjoy what I've got for you all.
(Note: For anyone not interested in
these things, wait for Part II – Upcoming Telenovelas, where I actually talk about
the upcoming telenovelas.)

La candidata Friday 9/1/17 Capítulo 57: Mario Asks Cecilia for Help--OR-- El Cuervo Has a Good Laugh--OR--El Chulo Is Not Just Another Pretty Face
A deserted alley--El Chulo asks if Alonso wants it all to end like this. He doesn't understand why Alonso thinks he is betraying him. Alonso makes money from his businesses. Alonso is angry that Gerardo is about to get out of jail. Somebody, and he doesn't know who, made a move. El Chulo swears it wasn't him. So, who did? El Chulo doesn't know and doesn't want to know. He is interested in making money and not politics. He tells Alonso that he can ask Escalante to verify that fact. Alonso asks what Escalante has to do with this. El Chulo smirks and states that Escalante is behind the finances and reminds him that Escalante is the public face of his money laundering business. Alonso concludes that Escalante is behind it all. El Chulo says he always has been. El Chulo quickly pulls his pistol and asks if they are going to get back to business or what. Alonso gives the sign and all the weapons are lowered and put away. The stand-off is over. El Chulo is still smirking.
Gerardo's Jail Cell--El Cuervo is giving Gerardo his money's worth filling him in on Mario and his prostitution/extortion business. Mario has an associate: Isela owns a cabaret where the girls come from. El Cuervo worked for them. Gerardo adds that Mrs. Barcenas discovered that he was selling protection to them. Yes, but he didn't end up with much money because it is an organization and the money ended up getting divided up just like here in the jail. El Cuervo has something to confess. Before killing Pacheco, he had information that if sold to him was going to make him a millionaire. The information was about Mario's dirty businesses with the most important fact being that Mario was Cecilia's father and Isela her mother.

La Candidata, Thursday 8/31/17 Chapter 56: Regina Learns She Has a Sister and Who She Is
Repasando lo de ayer
Read more »
In his office, Alonso learns from Magda of Omar’s accident.
She promises to call the hospital for an update. Marcia runs in, breathless, to
tell Al she knows exactly what happened to Don Omar. Magda leaves them. Mario
arrives at the government offices and also wants to see Alonso, but Mauro stops
him since he is busy with one of Mario’s “girls.” Mario is startled that Mauro
knows about his prostitution ring. They start a game of one-upmanship daring
each to reveal the other’s secrets to Alonso—especially the one about Cecelia
being Mario’s daughter and the other about Mauro’s sexual preference. Mario
backs down as Mauro urges them to go tell Alonso right then and there.
At the prison hospital, a hand passes money to a guard and
some prisoner passes in to stand by a sleeping Gerardo. It’s El Cuervo, the
dirty policeman who shot Pacheco (who later died).
Noemi is ready to tell Regina the truth about her father’s
other family, one he’s had for a long time. Regina chalks it up to her being
soused.
Recontando lo de hoy
Alonso’s Office – Marcia declares that Natalia pushed Omar
down the stairs. Alonso doesn’t buy her story. He says right to her face that
just because they had a couple of rolls in the hay she’s to be believed? How
could she be that stupid, she’s nothing but trash. He tells her to disappear.
She claims she was only trying to help Omar through the betrayal by Alonso’s
mother. Al’s ire rises at the mention of his mother and would probably have
strangled Marcia if Cecelia hadn’t interrupted. Al tells Cece to get her out of
there and maybe get her a job at their mother’s cabaret. Marcia screams in
defiance, but Cece drags her out.
