Me Declaro Culpable #14, 3/6/20: Guess Who is Coming to Dinner
If you guessed Paolo, you’d be wrong. Here’s what went down today.
It wasn’t pretty.
Ensalada Interruptus
Alba has forgiven herself for misjudging Franco and the two are having a lawyer-client conversation complete with hand-fondling. They talk mainly about how Ingrid has turned Gabe against her and there’s nothing she can do about it. She doesn’t blame him, since of course she is an assassin. He rejects that notion. He does admit that hers is a difficult case, but they will prevail. He tells her not to lose faith. He asks her to go out for a salad as friends, not missing an opportunity to put his arm around her waist and then both hands on her shoulders. Olga, the secretary cum spy recruited by Bertie makes a call.
Bertie has just returned from her treatment at the hands of Dr. Luciana Matasanos, or in this case Metaesperma. She knows she must rest but promptly cuts her off when Olga’s call comes in, who passes on what she just observed. Alba and Franco have barely enjoyed a couple of bites and a couple of “looks” when a dark shadow passes in front of them. Bertie sidles up to the table. She explains she needed to talk to Franco and since he wasn’t in his office guessed he might be here. She’s quite civil, pleasant and offers apologies to Alba for interrupting. Alba jumps up from the table (it hard to say why—feeling guilty?), ceding her place to Bertie. Alba excuses herself and Bertie sits down. After some back and forth as to who deserves the salad, Franco tells her she can have his salad, too, and gets up and leaves telling her to enjoy. Bertie samples the broccoli.

Me Declaro Culpable #13, 3/5/20: Natalia Gets a Clue
Good morning peeps, it is 2 am pacific so this recap will be fast and easy.
The bombshell: Natalia learns the truth
Paolo sends Katia packing, later he and Natalia hang out (the editing in this novela is terrible) he tells her that he spent time with Katia but that he is not interested in her any more, the conversation then moves to Paolo being disappointed because there are so many things that he can no longer do. Natalia points out that while that may be true there are things that he can still do and asks him what else he would have wanted to do other than play soccer. He tells her he would have loved to be a race car driver (men!), Natalia tells him he can still do this and takes him out for a drive. And this folks is when things go sour, so so sour.
Natalia is in the passenger seat, she's not wearing a seatbelt- dumb bunny, and is helping guide Paolo's driving, they then arrive at the scene of Paolo's accident and that's when Natalia realizes that she was the person who ran over him, she has a mental breakdown and cancels the rest of their plans with some lame excuse about having to do something with her mom. Guys, she wants us to believe she wants to spend time with that nut ball, is nut ball one word or two?

Me Declaro Culpable #12, 3/4/20: Confusiones
Some scenes are combined, some not explored fully, but you'll get the idea. My cable company/DVR has a title for each
episode. Today’s was “Confusiones” so
that sounded good enough to me. There are lots of
confused people in this telenovela and we all know who they are.
We open with Alba & Franco in the hotel room, still
arguing about what has just happened (see yesterday’s recap). She is ranting on, tells him that now she
understand “pro bono” and “I’m your bono, eh?” (yet they never really talk about the red
dress on the bed).
Alba tells Franco that Olga gave her the papers, with instructions
to bring them to Franco. Like the good
legal “runner” she is (not!), she did just that. We viewers do not question "why?" We just roll with it, or else we, too, will be confused. Just like these characters. But I digress ... Franco says he never had Olga do any such thing. Alba calls him a
liar. (awww, their first lovers’
quarrel)

Me Declaro Culpable #11, 3/3/20: Nuclear-Option Families
Bufete Monroy-Urzua:
Mauro tells Ingrid the judge has ordered her to undergo a psych eval, and she goes all poor pitiful me on him. He has clearly never been all the way around the block, because he falls for it hook, line and wishful thinking. He swears he is willing to make his son-in-law his worst enemy...if it's for her. Gawd, what a dope.
Alba brings Franco a sexy salad in his moonlight office, and he insists they share it. I hope she at least brought two forks. She confesses she has to hang out for a while because she's temporarily turned the Coffee Shop into an AirBnB for a lovelorn "friend."
Roberta shows up hoping for a romantic round two but overhears Franco and Alba giggling behind the closed door. She ducks down and calls him, pretending that Natalia's having a crisis and needs him right now, as in RIGHT NOW. Super Dad flies out the door and Mommy Dearest flies in, grabbing fistfuls of Al's hair and calling her every name we've already heard and at least one we still haven't, because it was so bad it got bleeped out. Any lip-readers out there?

Me Declaro Culpable #10, 3/2/20: Roberta Goes Hunting and Bags Herself a Man
Well, that wasn't all that happened of course. Nat was prevented from confessing; Julián did unspeakable things to her teddy bear; Roberta and Alba both showed their technical prowess with cellphones; Ingrid pulled some more crazy ghost numbers, but Roberta seducing Franco took the cake as they say. Remember when we all chortled that she'd need to get him drunk or drugged to fake a pregnancy? Not at all. Just come onto him in the office and he's your guy. Ready and able. Little soldier up and ready to fire. But let's leave that gruesome scene for later. How did this episode begin?
With Julián on a public phone, rasping with a Beelzebub voice, telling Franco his very own daughter is the one who hit the soccer star he's defending and left him for dead. Franco refuses to believe a cowardly anonymous caller, so Julián suggests he investigate. "You'll soon find out your darling daughter belongs behind bars."

Me Declaro Culpable #9, 2/28/20: Shushshsh; It’s the Fox vs. the Nag
We left off where Franco is informing LaLoca that he’s had
enough and he’s moving out of the house.
Read more »
(First a Fashion Note: Roberta is wearing a see through print
blouse with gathers between elbow and wrist and a black halter bra underneath.
She’s divided in half by a 5” patent leather belt. Her short, tight, black
skirt has seemingly been enhanced in the rear. It actually is quite a striking
ensemble, just not on her.)
Bertie is all Katy Bar
the (Barn) Door
She is trying to keep Franco from abandoning their home and
hearth. She runs through a mental list of all the reasons he can’t leave her.
He’s deaf to any of the reasons. She’s convinced that he’s leaving her for that
ZORRA. (Time out for vocabulary: zorra = whore, a puta, perra AND a fox. Foxes are
quite beautiful animals and women can be foxy. I’ll leave it at that and use “fox”
to describe Alba, for I’m sure we’ll be hearing “zorra” repeated endlessly.) In
addition, adds Bertie, she’s a killer. How could he have stooped so low. She
wants to know the truth, that she’s Franco’s lover. Franco says she’s pathetic.
He just can’t take it anymore, peeling her off of his jacket. She bares her
teeth, like an old nag and swears she’ll kill him.

Me Declaro Culpable #7, 2/26/20: The plot thickens
Here goes, Patio. First time to post on the main page. Yikes. If I mess this up, I hope one of the recapping team can fix it. Aaaack! I am sweating bullets!
Some scenes are combined, some glossed over. And if I misinterpreted any dialog, please correct it? Our characters were very busy today.
We open at with Natalia & Paolo at the park. She is doing a good job of walking in those 4-inch spike heels on the brick-paver/cobblestone path. Ah, to be young again. Her phone rings, and Paolo makes snarky comment that it's probably loverboy Julian. (it is)
Vile Julian tells Nat he has the phone number of the guy in Toronto who she H&Red (Hit and Ran) and encourages her to call the guy. While she is engrossed in her convo, Paolo leaves.
Alba apologizes to Ingrid for the chokehold (girl learned some life skills in prison that might serve her well, later on?). Ingrid rattles on that she never had a kid and doesn't know what that's like, but she has taken care of Gabe all his life and saw more of him than Alba has. Alba agrees, but I want my son. Now.
Gabe calls Alba pleading with her to get him out of Ingrid's Crazy House. He can't take it anymore. Alba says she will talk to the lawyer. (Awww, here is another excuse to see Franco)
Julian is coaching the fake "victim" on how to act and what to say when Natalia calls him. Dirtbag.

Me Declaro Culpable #6, 2/25/20: Screaming Meanies
Bufete Monroy:
Franco and Alba make an after-dark exit from the despacho. As he's handing her into the car to drive her back home -- i.e. the coffee shop, which is close enough for her to walk every morning with a fully laden coffee tray, but juarever -- he notices a flat tire. Turns out he doesn't know how to change a flat because all he ever does is hand porn and lawyer stuffs, so she does it for him. He calls her a little box o' surprises and grins goofily.
Meanwhile, Roberta is spying on them from her own parked car and just can't handle all that jack action. She hits the gas and tries to flatten Alba like a panqueque but only succeeds in pushing them into each other's arms. Well, so much for that plan.
Casa Urzua:
Julian is for some reason all alone in a house he doesn't live in, desperately trying to convince Nati over the phone not to turn herself in. She hangs up on him -- twice! -- and then refuses to answer his calls. He's just gotten out the requisite "no puede ser!" when Roberta crashes through the front door looking even more assymetrical than usual and starts chugging a bottle of whisky from the bar. They argue over who has the bigger problem, and of course Roberta wins because she's crazier. She peppers him with "sueltames" and "largates" and then runs upstairs and swallows the contents of every bottle on her nightstand.
Depa Duenas:
Ingrid flashes back to her brother's death scene, including a few small details we didn't know about. Apparently after Alba flipped the switch, she freaked out and switched it right back on again, but she was so overcome by grief and guilt and pretty tears that she didn't notice her husband was still alive. Ingrid rushed in screaming and chased her away, then very deliberately -- and permanently -- turned the machine back off. "Sorry, brother," she said. "I had to do it."

Me Declaro Culpable #5, 2/24/20: Three Hysterics and a Funeral
There was a lot of wailing, weeping and gnashing of teeth this episode. Roberta, Ingrid and Natalia were all fighting for the Hysteria Honors. I'll let you decide who, if anybody, won the grand prize. But let's start at the beginning....
The breakfast chez Paolo is going badly. He's venting about the horrid person who hit him and left him for dead, as an anguished Natalia listens-- and gradually realizes she's the culprit who ruined his life. Way to kill the mood, Paolo, not to mention her appetite. He's all over himself apologizing and she's all over herself getting out of there. Seems there's an urgent errand she has to run for her dad. Leaving Paolo and the breakfast behind, she flees at top speed. And in such a hurry she leaves her cellphone behind. Pal Dante thinks it's a ploy. "Hey, just means she wants to see you again." Paolo's not so sure. He's afraid he blew it with his angry rant about the accident.
At the office, relationships are equally fraught. Roberta is fixing Alba with a death glare, and chastising her husband for representing a heartless lady who "unplugged" her husband. Alba wisely departs, while Roberta is merely ramping up with more. When Franco quietly points out the lady has none nothing to Robs to merit that treatment, she snarls "Oh yes she has! She's come between us!"
