Me Declaro Culpable #26, 3/24/20: The Geometry of Drama
Point A to Point B
Drunk Roberta continues to insult everyone at the dinner party, and after every single member of her family tells her to go to her room, she grabs the car keys and an entire bottle of bourbon and heads out to Tiziano's bachelor pad, where she demands that he knock her up yesterday. Amazingly, he's up for it -- only not in the way she wants, because it turns out he had a vasectomy way before yesterday. He continues to swear his love for her -- why does she think he never married, anyway? -- and she continues to treat him worse than dirt. And now she's really mad because she got down with her dress on for no good reason.
Point A to Point C
Franco drives Gabriel back to Aqua House, where Gabe corners him for a "man-to-man" talk. "Are you in love with my Mom?" Franco comes clean, and Gabe says then dude, get a divorce already. What does it tell you when a 16-year-old boy is the only one who gives decent advice? The conversation is interrupted by the arrival of Pedro, who has invited himself to an impromptu slumber party.
Point D to Point E
Julian passes out after dropping Natalia's name but before dropping Paolo's, but even Katia can put two and two together and get homewrecker. She runs off to dish to Paolo, but he's not home and Dante won't let her in. Good doggie!

Me Declaro Culpable #25, 3/23/20: Where Has the Magic Gone?
Sorry, I just can't do short and sweet.
It’s been a long night for Nat and Paolo
They are still discussing the Always-There-Never-Wanted Julián’ phone call interrupting their unfinished Maximus Festivus Miraculum attempt. The fact that Julián said that it is now suspected a woman caused Paolo’s accident worries Nat. She asks Pao if that would make a difference to him? How? Well, Nat says, as she srolls through the list of her own probable reasons for it being a real accident. Pao’s not buying it. Man or woman, he’s in a wheelchair and full of anger towards the person. Nat wishes he hadn’t answered the call. He tries to sweet talk her back to where they left off. Nat says it’s not happening. The Magic Has Gone.
The KISS is Up and Hanging
Before Franco goes home, he stops by the office to hang his newest acquisition, Alba’s Awful Artwork, Executed in the Dark. Interestingly, he hangs it behind his desk, where he won’t see it all the time. Back home, he crawls into bed as far away from B-P Bertie as he can. The Magic is Gone. Meanwhile, Alba writes a letter.
Nat is entertained by a two-legged Paolo
While Paolo sleeps, Nat snivels watching him exhibit his soccer skills on TuTube. She climbs back into bed and whispers for Pao to forgive her, she didn’t mean to hurt him. He sleepily says she didn’t.

Me Declaro Culpable #24, 3/20/20: Where Were You When The Lights Went Out?
Greetings Patio Peeps. I got some bad news from the doctor yesterday and it disabled my brain temporarily. I forgot Anita was not recapping this Friday. And I deleted the episode. But here's what I remember, and I'm sure you all can fill in lots of juicy details in your inimitable style. Countin' on ya Patio!
Aqua House of Hell
Gabe is back in the Snake Pit of Tia Ingrid's house but he has a plan. He'll encourage her to set a place for Papi Javier at the table. After all "he's always with her, so why not include him at dinner." She's all chuffed and happy that he understands. But alas, the little whelp goes a mite too far, and suggests she talk out loud to her brother. Ingrid smells a rat, makes him stand up and sure enough, the recording phone on his lap falls to the floor. She's on it like a panther. With hands of steel evidently, she destroys the phone-- literally rips it apart in seconds. Amazing.

Franco: Thanks for sharing.
Paolo: I'm here for workies!

Me Declaro Culpable #21, 3/17/20: Denial is not just a river in Egypt
This is “fast and dirty”, Patio. I’m tired and stressed. On top of grandma day care, our son’s local wedding
this coming weekend has been rescheduled thx
to COVID-19 and ten-person gathering suggested limit (which I wholly support!!! #flattenthecurve). Crazy times we live in right now. The novios have scrambled to find an alternate solution, and now we have a long day trip tomorrow to
meet halfway between where her parents live and where we live, for a “pop-up”
wedding with only the parentals in attendance, and la nieta. Our week is as crazy as this telenovela. So here it is, Patio. Forgive me
for the lack of detail. I’ve got bigger
fish to fry.
Oh, and the local transmission of this show has been the
total pits the past two days, so there are parts I could neither see, hear, and
how does one recap a test pattern? Oh,
forget it. My give-a-darn meter is busted.
ALBA/GABRIEL/INGRID STUFF
Ingrid must work out at Orange Theory or Crossfit. She managed to get Gabriel off the floor and
onto his bed muy pronto. But hey, she hauled Luciana to the dump, so there we have it. Pedro shows up
to visit Gabe. Crafty Ingrid tells him Gabe
is asleep, has a slight fever, he’ll see him tomorrow at school. Then the bank calls and while Ingrid is
talking to them, Pedro goes on back to Gabe’s room, does not like what he sees,
and says ‘bye to Ingrid like everything
is normal. We learn later that he went
straight to Alba and told her Gabe is in danger; something is wrong over there in crazy town.

Me Declaro Culpable #20, 3/16/20: Bloodsuckers and Emotional Vampires, and a Little Poisoning to Boot
Wow. Watching these episodes is exhausting. Drama and über-drama out the wazoo. Except for Franco who just keeps saying "tranquilo, tranquilo". Well, he didn't look too tranquilo when he was laying hot and heavy kisses on Alba. And Gabriel was far from tranquilo when he saw what his mama, only four months a widow by the way, was up to with her lawyer. Ingrid claims to be "chapada a la antigua" [old-fashioned] because I guess I am too. Moving on from widowhood that quickly seems unseemly to me. But evidently in telenovela-world it's okay. At least that's what Franco, Gael and Julieta are all preaching. And they're supposedly in the "good guy" cadre.
But we start with fireworks. First the Beso Fireworks. Then the Outraged Gabriel Fireworks. Alba runs after him, pleading that he's the most important thing in life to her. She's been trying to connect with him, looking everywhere for him. Please wait and let me explain! Gabe isn't buying it. Nor does he now believe that she really misses his dad. How can he trust her when she always lies? Alba swears that she never lies! (How about lying to yourself, sweet lady?

Me Declaro Culpable #19, 3/13/20: The Wait is Over, There’s a KISS
There is still room at the #frustratedwithNatalia table,
because she could still change her mind. Let’s get right to it.
The two Amazonas stop, in broad daylight, get the body of skinny Luciana out and rolled over into a pile of trash. Ingrid wants to hurry away. Bertie wants to say “goodbye” to her friend. She removes a fancy dinner ring Bertie had given her for her birthday awhile back to keep as a trophy. [Note to future forensic investigators: Will the ring be a key to identifying the killer? And what about Luciana’s shroud. I bet that could be traced back to the clinic.]

Julián gives Nat the
Heave Ho
Natalia starts out strong, but Julián’s barrage of emotional
torture and spit spray in her face seems to turn her back into her
jellyfish stage. Julián leaves her standing in the dimly lit office after
pronouncing that after all the love he’s given her, supported her, knowing all
her secrets and defects, he still loves her, but he’s tired of all the drama
and she’s A.L.O.N.E. [Note to Natalia: We are waiting for you to decide between
being forced to choose a sleazy jerk who can perform in bed and the guilt of
choosing a really sweet guy who thinks he can’t, all because you caused his
condition.]
Who’s Minding the
Dump? A dog.
Ingrid chats nonchalantly with Mauro on her cell phone after
escaping the manicomio with Bertie and now navigating through mounds of
discarded human detritus. She tells him they are ok and passes the phone to
Bertie.The two Amazonas stop, in broad daylight, get the body of skinny Luciana out and rolled over into a pile of trash. Ingrid wants to hurry away. Bertie wants to say “goodbye” to her friend.

Me Declaro Culpable #18, 3/12/20: On the bright side Luciana won't have to worry about her diet anymore
Patio peeps this was totes intense.
A few observations: Do we know what the cause of death for Javier was? Because with the bald head they make it seem like it's cancer, but they also made it sound like Alzheimer's, but now we are being told his illness was a result of being poisoned by Ingrid. This is sloppy writing, how much access to him did Ingrid have that she could continue to poison him on a long term basis? What herb could cause you to lose your memories like he did? I'm confused, can anyone help me figure this out? Oooh also, because of the way in which he died wouldn't they have preformed an autopsy which would have revealed that he had been poisoned? This is a case for Forensic Files! Now to our recap:
We start the episode where we left off last night, Julian and Natalia are having a screaming match, Julian is getting a little too close for comfort and thankfully before things can get worse for Natalia Gael shows up and grabs Julian by the throat. I'm sitting on my couch cheering for Gael, I want blood! Sadly for me Natalia manages to get Gael to let go of Julian without further violence and I'm sad, someone needed to punch his lights out. I'm not violent, I swear. Julian slithers away but not before telling Natalia that "this isn't over".

Me Declaro Culpable #17, 3/11/20: La Declararon Loca
No snark, this was a down-to-business episode with a lot of meat
in it. And backstory. No fluff. Enjoy. Daniela
Castro rocked her role today. What an actress!
She deserves an Emmy.
We open with Roberta pleading to Franco “don’t leave me,
don’t send me away, etc.” Roberta wants
to go home.
Later on, Franco calls Alba in the middle of the night,
wakes her up, wants to know how she is doing after almost meeting her maker,
compliments of Roberta and her butcher knife.
He feels bad about what Bertie did.
Alba tells him that just the sound of his voice makes everything
better. Awwwww….. (Methinks it’s his Argentinean accent that has her swooning. Well, that and his hot looks. But I digress.) This relationship is so going somewhere. And Franco, holding his cup of coffee at the
other end of the phone call, brings to mind one of those old Nescafe commercials on TV.
Conversation between Roberta and Daddy Dearest a/k/a Mauro ---
she tells him he is the worst father
ever, his lies, him hitting her when she was a little girl, etc. Mauro says her illness is fabricating all
that, creating false memories. Roberta
tells him that good fathers do not treat their kids the way you treated
me. You mistreated me, tortured me, made
me suffer, lied to me, left marks on me.
(not sure if
that means bruises or scars on her skin.)

Radio Mala Racha:
The "mysterious caller" goes on and on. And on. And on. Not only are there no peepholes in Alternate Mexico City, there are no kill switches either. Finally Alba flees in tears, followed by Franco, who tries to talk her down. You are innocent! I am guilty! I can't recognize my own wife's voice! Me neither! It all ends in an inappropriate hug as usual, inconveniently witnessed by Roberta through the glass door of the studio. If you're wondering QTH she could possibly be doing right there right then, join the rest of us. We will probably never know, because she does a 180 and disappears.
Casa Paolo:
Paolo and Katia are sharing fond memories on top of the bedclothes. She tries to kiss him and is rebuffed, which for some reason moves her to strip down to her Frederico's of Hollywood and announce, "I don't really expect anything to happen between us; I just want to be near you." Honey? If you're shoving that much cleavage under a guy's chin and he's still looking at you like he needs a Maalox, he's just not that into you.
Despacho Pro Bono:
Mauro has only just now noticed that no one ever comes to work anymore, especially "Juliancito," whose main client just dumped the firm because nobody was paying any attention to him. Where is the little toad, anyway? Olga blandly replies that perhaps something has happened to him. Mauro says he'd better hope something has, or something's gonna.
