El Dragón #9, 10/10/19: Ready, Set, Go, Or You Bet Your Life!
As we begin we note Miguel remembering his meeting with the members of The Garza Gang 2.0: "--You all know what you have to do." Hacker Team tinkles the keys at top speed, careful to check each and every screen's speedy DOSsed lines of program and......"DONE!" Jimena dons a black wig. "No mistakes, no raising of suspicions.... " Peligros and Sr. Advisor dig up buried bags of bills, American. Sr. A. gripes it isn't Euros. Peligros says he's only following orders. (Purposely over-inflated Euros don't work in the U.S. of A. dumbs!t. Most of N.America insists on using good ol' American greenbacks, as the writers should know. Or when in Rome.....)
Adela drives Mig to an apartment building where Mr. Pol-Carlos-- lives. Mig receives the financial information (tributario) he needs to negate one of his possible competitors. The first is La Muralla who always gets what he sets his sights on. His contact is expecting Mig's call. Carlos wants to re-emphasize that he's being pressured by his associate/s (Who? Oh. His one associate: Epigemio?). They stand to lose everything if this venture fails. Mig assures him with the report he's been given nobody will lose a centavo.

La Usurpadora - Capitulo 19
Recap by Princess Juju
Wilson threatened Ernestina with death to keep her from calling Paulina and informing her of her mothers death, he later tells Paola that Ernestina wont open her mouth and Paola doesn't seem to believe him because in her own words Wilson can't "scare a three year old". Wilson asks her if anything they are going to do will hurt Paulina and Paola tells him to shut up because he's prettier when he's quiet.
In Mexico Emilio and Fernanda are wasted. Emilio drank a lot and did cocaine and he passed out while Fernanda suffered a medical emergency- she had her appendix burst and Emilio was unable to get her help. Emilio eventually wakes up, realizes she's in trouble and calls Juana for help.

El Dragón #8, 10/9/19: Missions Impossibles Or New Tricks For His Trade
As the elevator doors begin to close two guns from Sergei's goons manage to poke through. Miguel and Karina are looking at cooked goose dinner--theirs--but Mig has hidden talents he was taught in the orient and plies them now. Both goons (lookin' like midget versions of fans leftover from an '80's ZZ Top concert) are taken by surprise (not to mention dreamy crispy creamy Karina) as he two-hand triple throws them (is that a judo term?) upside down and out and onto the floor long enough to escape them and Sergei, and to meet up with Adela in the parking garage as planned. They drive to have their lunch with Ruso numero uno -Alexi?--after all. Alexi is totally down with Miguel's operation and they seal the deal over Mexican pizza and vodka shots?

La Usurpadora - Capitulo 18 - Booze and Drugs and a Funeral
Paola is still asking Olga to say her name when the episode starts, but she turns it around quite drastically by the end, channeling her inner Maleficent. She instructs Tina to proceed with the funeral arrangements and tells her that she will contact Paulina. Naturally not only is that a lie, but she also calls Manuel to tell him of the news and orders him to prevent Paulina from finding out. At her command he tells Paulina that Olga and Paola left the city for a while and are incommunicado. For some unknown reason Paulina, who spent the better part of the episode looking for a cell phone (there seems to be a shortage of those in their residence) to call home and then dialing non-stop, seems to have believed him. Additionally looks like no one questioned Manuel’s giant black eye, so Mexico must be lenient on such things in Presidential households.

El Dragón #7, 10/8/19: It’s not Personal, it’s just Business!
We begin
with Miguel and Jimena meeting and Jimena accepting Miguel’s offer. She puts
her purse on the table in front of her and immediately, Miguel opens the purse
and takes out her pistol, disarming it. “I want an explanation” says Miguel. “Do
you always carry a gun in your purse?” She apologizes and says that if she is
going to work in illegal business, she has to protect herself. Miguel responds
by telling her she is working in finance, not as a hitman. He further explains
that her security is on him and then gives her a pen to sign the contract. “Boy,
you sure know how to impress a lady,” she says. The secretary comes in and says
someone is waiting outside for Miguel.
The business
consultant who came to see Miguel discusses the different type of business that
he can run from there. An engineering business, a construction business, and
ecological business among others. Miguel says, “I need the Russians.”

La Usurpadora - Capitulo 17 - What’s in a name? Turns out quite a bit for a jealous twin.
Paulina, having been dragged back to the hotel, is told to pack as they are leaving for Mexico immediately. Back in Mexico the grandmothers broke in to Lis’s room, found her next to an empty bottle of pills and are at a complete loss as to what to do. Thankfully for them, Gema shows up to save the day. She also has a phone and knows which discreet doctor to call. One of the perks of being a presidential child is that in case you attempt suicide, a doctor will come to pump your stomach at your residence, which is exactly what happens. Lis will be fine they are told. Everyone breathes a collective sigh of relief.

bad news about Lamberto.

La Usurpadora - Capitulo 16 - Romance on steroids develops multiple personality
We are officially less than 10 episodes from the finale, guys. Put your seat belts on, because this one had some sharp turns!
Despite Paola’s efforts to run out and catch Olga, the latter did make it to meet Paulina. They rehash some of the same old: Paulina is happy at the house with this family, who all thinks she belongs there. Paulina always wanted a family, so Olga is happy for her. Olga thinks this is destiny sending her Paola, so that she could give her the love she couldn’t give previously. She needs some time with her and doesn’t believe Paola is bad. Love will save her, says Olga.

El Dragon #5, 10/4/19: The Truth Kills
Last night we ended with Miguel following Karina off the yacht to her place and them mutually seducing each other, But dang…didn’t take long to forget about Asya. On the other hand, that little stunt is going to cost him because the guys taking the pictures were none other than agents for some government entity. I am guessing the IRS type since he was talking about looking good in front of the Director of the Tax Office. And Miguel is about to become the “Pez gordo,” or fat fish.
We pick up with Miguel still in Miami, I guess the night in bed with Karina gave Miguel enough references to get a meeting with the Russians, because that is where we start this Friday night episode. Miguel's business plan seems too good to be true…a large network of money laundering for various organizations without charging them a penny and without risk. They, of course think it’s too good to be true. But Miguel seems to be operating like a bank. He cleans the money but in turn earns his cut through investing in the stock market. So that’s the plan. He tells the Russians he is trying to run this plan on an international level. The agent played by our friendly Alejandro Avila (Victor, Rulli’s best friend from LQLVMR) is trying to go undercover to see what he can find out from Mr. Sanchez Morris while quite obviously, scoping out Miguel the entire time.

La Usurpadora - Capitulo 15 - "Denial ain't just a river in Egypt"
So Carlos is in Paulina’s room excitedly announcing that he will travel with her to Colombia. Paulina either panics or also has a secret crush on Carlos, because she does a very poor job of coming up with any excuses at all, and ends up acquiescing to his request. Not only that, but Carlos ends up inviting himself to sleep in one bed with her (because “while he has no problem falling asleep, he does not want to sleep alone”), but promises to behave. They are found still lounging in bed in the morning by Lisette (already made up with her goth style lipstick and eye shadow), who runs downstairs to inform the early bird breakfast crew – Piedad and Arcadia. Arcadia is over the moon, but Piedad looks less than pleased with this news. It doesn’t help that Carlos arrives and reveals their mutual travel plans.

El Dragón #4, 10/3/19: Putting Plans Into Motion
Lucky for Bernal that Miguel was at that meeting and saw him in front of the protesters. As soon as the shots were fired Mig raced out and grabbed his schoolfriend and dragged him to safety. Bernie asks what brought Mig there and he admits he was attending the Party of the Privileged. Bernie complains of all the treacherous crooks that were there attending with him who were all involved in his sister's death. They race to Mig's car and are only momentarily stopped by a group of policemen in their kevlar. The head cop takes one look inside the fancy car and Miguel's super serious and determined expression and Bernal's wounds, then backs off. (Viewerville supposes this will be a precursor of things to come.)
Meanwhile, Chisca learns they've run out of blow. Well, then, time to go to one of Granpop's hiphop one stop shops to grab a pack or two. She's stopped by one of Gramps's goons. By order of her brother she's not permitted to enter the club. Really? She backs him into a corner and begins to seduce him then suddenly screams and slaps him as trying to get fresh with her and makes a big scene in front of the other goons. First goon backs off. She tells him he won't say squat against her and slut struts in and later out of the club with her bag of boogey.

La Usurpadora - Capitulo 14 - Woe is Paola. And Arcadia. But Paulina is supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Tearful mother-daughter reunion quickly turns into accusations of abandonment. Olga finally tells the story we’ve been waiting to find out: Paola was born needing a surgery and Olga did not have money for it. She was also sick - same mysterious ailment she has now, which was exacerbated after the delivery. She looked for help, but didn’t find any, and so had no choice but to give Paola up for adoption.
