Lo Que La Vida Me Robo #64- 2/7/14: You've Abandonded Me, Love Don't Live Here Anymore



Ahoy Amguis! I've been thinking about those of us sitting in that bunker of lowered expectations. We have made a nice accomodation for Ms Judy and Ms Fatima. They are sitting on a nice sofa with soft cushions with loosely locked arms, softly singing,  Kumbaya  and drinking chamomile to help themselves through this tumultous part of our TN. Ms Gloria is contemplating her recap for Monday, Ms Urban is working on her awesome prose, Ms NovelaMaven and Ms Elna June are having deep thoughts about these characters and thinking of a new collaboration, Ms Julia is putting her feet up and contemplating, Ms Eli is thinking of nonviolent ways to deal with Ale, Ms Elvira is thinking of the douchbaggery of Ale and how she'll deal with him next week, and me? I'm doing this recap on the fly. I have a new song for our star crossed lovers, that would be Ale and Monse, it fits their situation right now. Any subtitles you see in blue, please click on them and listen as you read the recap. Here is the second earworm for you  Love Don't Live Here Anymore. 




I am skipping the old and getting right to the new. Nadia gets tons of applause and a dozen roses and Pedro tells her to smile Stupid! I'd like to shut his stupid with a cast iron skillet. Addie comes up on the stage to tell Nadia that Monse has gone into labor.

Oh, my eyes, my eyes! Dimwit is sticking his tongue down Ginny's throat, although she doesn't seem to mind. He gets a call on his celly, it's his wifey pooh Fina, but he could care less and does more tongue calisthetics with Ginny.

Mentir Para Vivir #87 Fri 2/7/14 Everybody’s Back To Square One Or, Redux Sucks...Er Almost!


Lo Del Pasado:

Samuel and Wife of Joquin, aka Sra. Barragan, sit through the reading of the will.  All associates/employees of The Firm, including Jose Luis, and the widowed Missus, aka the Widda Barragan, drink a toast to the Ho King's memory (and an eternity in Hell beating bongos.)  Foxy Francisco, aka JL, knowing that Ho King's daughter is now running the bidnez, explains the “agreement” he had with her daddy and fears Uncle Sam won't honor it, but then realizes she's ignorant of her dead daddy's dealings and makes a breakfast date for the morning to discuss it further.  Meanwhile Sammy tells The Missus not to trust Foxy Franky around her daughter.

Lo Del Nuevo:

2nes asks Paloma to nix the extra security for Alina.  Dr. Varonese calls to let her know that JL won back his visitation rights.  He suggests allowing Berenice to have chat sessions with Lina to help her over her trauma re: her daddy.  She says she'll tell JL.  

In Santo Domingo, JL expresses his sincerest sympathies to The Widda, introduces himself to her, and, in between rude outbursts from Big Mouth Sammy, asks if she or her daughter will be running the bidnez from now on. Sammy tries an unsuccessful blocking maneuver by telling The Widda that JL's a useless meddler who's lost money on the last two ventures he's been in charge of.  JL calls him on it.  “--If that were the case why did you authorize me to go ahead with the real estate venture?  You even sent the funds to me personally.”  “--Because Joaquin told me to.”  JL looks over to The Missus. “--No, he didn't want any part of it.” Sammy accuses him of lying.  (Viewerville gets the sense that she doesn't care for Sammy anymore than her hubby did.)  Sammy accuses JL of lying.   The Missus sizes up JL like, hey, if Sammy doesn't like this Jose Luis guy, he should be pretty ok in my book.   She tells them this isn't the place or the time to discuss it.   JL excuses himself and walks away.  Sammy keeps giving Foxy the evil eye.

Por Siempre Mi Amor 2/7/14 US Capítulo 47

This is a recap of the show as was aired by Univision. It is a combination of the Mexican broadcast of episodes #53 and #54

Ally, Zenaida and the bikers are at the hospital waiting for news about Tita after her percance (accident.) Bruno walks in and says they are doing routine tests on Tita. He's a jerk to the bikers. Ally tries to apologize. They say they are used to it.

Ara has come to ask FeVier for help. He fusses at her for coming to see him at work. There are strict rules. He can't help her right now because he has a lot of work. Ara receives a text about Tita's accident. He tells her to go see Tita and they'll catch up later tonight at Sonia's. They kiss. (blech.) Every time he says "guapa" I want to hurl. I can't remember who said it, but I agree that it will be his downfall.

Weekend Discussion: Mentir Para Vivir Karmageddon Awaits!

Not all of these are left, but the bad guys we have certainly have it coming. While lying is normally included on the list of crimes against Divine Law, it will not be mentioned here because everyone is guilty of that.

Muchas gracias to Adriana Noel and 5Ft Latina for filling in what I didn't catch.  Now, what do you think should happen to these evil-doers and what do you think the writers will do?

Que Pobres Tan Ricos #24- 2/6/14: The Baby News, The Assessment and Everybody Needs a Boost Every Once In A While!



 

Hola Amguis! Tonight's capitulo was full of slangy stuff I didn't get. If I missed something please feel free to fill in. This recap of course will not be in any order, scenes have been combined for better flow, I will start with the new.

MA is eating at a seperate table, sampling a taco, and still in his smelly suit. He must reek! Nepo and Emil are at another table when Nepo invites "My Name is Mike" (MA) to his table, but MA declines. Nepo goes back to work.

Mini is so happy after her Doc's visit, cause now no pregnancy will ruin that figure of hers, she's just a goddess! Isela reminds her that Ahole could get a divorce from her for failure to produce the heir, never mind a spare! So Mini herself comes up with a plan, as some of you surmised all week, Mini will fake a pregnancy and get a bebe from somewhere like in steal one. Isela will help with faking the pregnancy results, as in the pee stick, get ultrasounds, and a Doctor in the Pocket so to speak, in other words, one that will cooperate. Onwards and upwards. Mini and Isela go to Ahole's office to see him. They are outside the office and Mini decides she will tell Ahole she had a great checkup, all systems are go, but to take some time getting preggers, cause Mini is sick to death of Ahole's prowress if you get my drift, in other words she wants a break. She'll tell Ahole that it's slow and steady that wins the race.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo 63 - 6 February, 2013 - Maria Plots Murder



Maria Plots Murder


“There are glances of hatred that stab, and raise no cry of murder.”
George Eliot

Maria’s Perspective
I have been reading a lot, especially on the topics of war, planning and strategy, psychology, and Mexican oil production. No, of course I am not planning an act of domestic terrorism—do not be concerned or report me to the authorities! I mean merely to make the point that I have a good parochial school education to grade 12, and I am not stupid. I am well spoken. I can read. I can think. I can plan.  
Alejandro got me an iPad when we went on our trip and I had a lot of time to myself. Ale wasn’t feeling quite himself on our travels, so, with my new credit cards—Bless you, Alej!—I downloaded a bunch of books from Amazon and sat by the pool and studied. I asked him for suggestions on the topics I mentioned earlier and he absent-mindedly suggested Sun-Tzu’s “The Art of War”, Machiavelli’s  ‘The Prince’, and some books on psychology. I found my own books on the history of the Pemex pipelines.  
I am not worried about Ale’s grouchiness. To tell the truth, he has always been a moody man. But, he is MY moody man, and I have always been able to cheer him out of his sulks in the past—I can do it again. Nothing has really changed. I just have to continue to be patient. And to plan.
I am not crazy, you know.  I have not lost touch with reality. I know that Alejandro had his reasons for marrying that vaca rubia Montserrat. But they were stupid reasons. I TOLD him he was not going to fit in with the rich idiots in Aguazul by marrying one of their princesses. His life was meant to be on the Hacienda, with me. Believe me, I reminded him of that many times on our long trip!
I will admit, at first, I acted impulsively and perhaps unwisely when La Rubia came to Hacienda Almonte. When Tio Juventino said that La Rubia was a problem. I agreed. When he suggested that she be removed from the scene, I thought that this made sense. What, should I just watch while I see a rattlesnake make a den in the home of my mate? Por supuesto que no! I grew up on the rancho and I have common sense. On the Hacienda when you see a rattlesnake, you kill it on the spot.

Mentir Para Vivir #86 Thu 2/6/14 Reunir para Despedir

After all the over-testosteroned male posturing in the waiting room, Manolo pulls rank as the displaced cop from another town who doesn't even belong there, and says HE'LL be the one to tell Inés the news that she's being released.  I'm betting he's not going to try to use it to get some nookie, either.

Inés is happy but worrying about what's going on with Lina.

Doc Veronese checks Lina out, not even in an exam room, but in the waiting room of Hermosillo's Only Clinic.  She's fine, she just needs a sandwich and to go home to Paloma's.

Por Siempre Mi Amor #52 and 53- 2/6/14- If Looks Could Kill



Isa is worried that Sucia will fill Ara’s head with all kinds of misinformation Art is fuming that Ara has lied to him and has been communicating with Sucia behind his back and he didn't have a clue. Isa tells Art to calm down because at this point they don't know the frequency of the visits they have to get proof. She just saw them at the restaurant; it could have been a coincidence. Isa tells
Art to ask her. Art hangs up because Osvy is at the office. He is worried about Isa and wants to know why did she try to commit suicide.

A package comes for Ara.  Lucha signs for it.

Por Siempre Mi Amor- 2/5/14- I Always Feel Like Somebody's Watching Me- Episodes 51 & 52

 Dear Viewerville,

Due to technical difficulties J was not able to post, therefore I wanted us to have an opportunity for discussion of last night's episode.  I will recap tonight's episode.

Waaah waaaah waaah, Alejandro makes the patio ask "does baby want a bottle, a big dirt bottle?" Lo Que La Vida me Robo Cap.62, Wed. 02/05/2014

Some scenes have been combined and might be out of order, I'm doing this to try and get a recap up quickly, I have a doctors visit in the morning and have had a long week, so tonight I can't stay up until 3:00 am to do my recap, I do hope you enjoy and that I've covered everything!

Refugio, oh he disappoints me so:

  Refugio is a dummy, he falls into Ez's trap and agrees to have Ez pull some strings to get Esmeralda fired from the job she loves. I say he let's her dance, dancing half naked never hurt no one! Anyhoo, he later tells Jose Luis what he did and explains that the thought of Esmeralda dancing in front of other men drives him crazy, Jose Luis tells him that getting Esmeralda fired is a bad bad idea and indeed it is because Esmeralda soon finds out that Ezequiel is behind her losing her job, when she goes to confront him he throws Refugio under the bus and tells her he only did what Refugio asked him to do.

 Esmeralda storms out of his office, but not before she declares that Refugio is her ex-boyfriend. Hey, can we blame her? First he gets her fired, then he pretends to be be sad that she lost her job all while knowing that he was responsible for her being on the bread line. Yeah, I'd break up with my boyfriend if he did that to me, although I'm not sure if I'd do it before or after I gave him a beating. And I'm not even a violent person.

Mentir Para Vivir #85 Wed 2/5/14 Little Orphan Alina

Spy vs Juez
Homero pays a surprise after-hours visit to the judge.  “QTH? Whatta ya want,” cries the judge.  Homero demands justice.  He feels that if he hadn’t interfered, Alina would be home w/Ricky and Ines would be with Paloma.  But noooooo, judge had to have his little, miserable revenge (desquite).  “You ain’t all that,” replies the judge.  Homero advises him he’s got a good sized file of his errors:  petty vengeance, bribes, unlawful judgements.  He demands that Alina be returned to Ricky and Ines out of that jail ASAP.  Judge thinks he can do something about Alina’s plight (thank goodness), but Ines? No! He has a witness that says Ines kidnapped that child.  Furthermore, Ricky is purportedly behind a grand scheme that puts Ines and Alina at the tia’s beach house, supposedly on vacation.  Judge refuses to give up his source.  Homer accuses him of being more stubborn than a mule.  Furthermore, he’s a bad person.  (now that hurt!)

Qué Pobres, Wednesday 2/5/14 (#23): Grated Expectations

Alt titles:
- Managed Expectations
- What to Expect When You're Not Expecting

MA announces his intention to have an appraiser evaluate the property - land and buildings. Just in case it turns out the Menchacas owe more than 300K pesos. (Imagine if the bank decided to increase the balance on your decades-old mortgage.) There is much grumbling.

Nepo is walking on air. He's slept late and has breakfast ready when Diego gets up, much to Diego's delight. They haven't breakfasted together in years, apparently. This seems like a good time for a serious father/son talk, but Guendy arrives. Nepo gives her and Diego his good news about Lupe.

Guendy teleports to the Mechacas' and loudly announces the noviazgo of Lupe and Nepo to the whole family, because that's totally her news to give, right? The whole family congratulates Lupe (or do I see Chuy hesitate for just a moment first?). MA hangs back. Guendy notices and insists that he give his cousin a hug and kiss. MA obliges with an awkward hug.

Lupe asks the family not to mention this to Emiliano yet. Guendy makes a kissy face at MA.

In a silent-bleep-laden scene, Ahole suffers a brief equipment malfunction when he attempts an ultra-quickie with Min before work. She takes advantage of this pause in his fervor to ask him for a bank account and a higher limit on her credit card for "household expenses." Ahole ignores her chatter, gets his concentration back, bangs her real fast, and goes to the office.

Ahole brags to Vilma about his honeymoon. She spitefully puts way too much sugar in his coffee. Again she voices her doubts about Adolfo. He's using the RP company to launder his money. It's very risky. Vilma doesn't like it. They could go to jail. Ahole replies that his own money is safe in the Caymans and in Switzerland; it's the RP money that's at risk. They're making a big profit, so what's the problem? "Yes sir, you know best," Vilma replies.

Ahole vows never to set foot in a prison. He neglects to make such a promise on Vilma's behalf.

February 4, 2014-PSMA (Por Siempre mi Amor) Recap #49 (and 50?)- He isn't just a lover, he's a fighter! (or) Damn that Esteban REALLY packs a punch!

RECAP BY CORAZONSALVAJE:

We begin today with a scene between Isabel and FeVer.
Now a scene with Gabs and St.Nick.
After some chatting, Isa has a flashback to her married days with Feo and the one moment we could be close to cracking this case like a walnut, she begins to think she's going crazy (but who wouldn't? After blatant feticide and being abused by Aranza, I know I would.) FeVer then excuses himself and asks a worker there a favor. He instructs to snap a pic when he is hugging Isa and the worker obliges. After some more chit chat, he goes for the hug and his head is apparently big enough to block Isa's view of the camera as his goon catches the candid right under her nose. (Just for the sake of wittiness and photo-op related jokes, SAY MIZITHRA!Mozzerella! Asiago! Brie!) Also, FeVer kisses Isa's neck slightly and she gives a 0.o type face.
A scene with Art Dad which cuts to Tita and 'Za and that snips into more Nick and Gabs.
Tita and 'Za.

Que Pobres tan Ricos # 22, 4 Feb 2014... Lupe commits #1 sin in TNs, acts on impulse with incomplete information. Nepo in heaven, MA acts like sore loser. Isela moves in with the newlyweds. Mini relieved, A-hole feels like Three's a crowd.

Refrito:
Grandma and Frida looking for ‘don’t know what, but its important’ Lupe comes over and asks what is going on, gives Mati some words of encouragement, you have your family who love and support you.
Lo nuevo:
Mati says her grandchildren are extremes. Frida is good although rebellious. Says Leo is very selfish, like his mom(THanks Vivi!)… OTOH grandson MA is the greatest, but A-hole is the worst… A-hole is the other side of the coin, he always has two faces, using the most convenient one every time. A-hole is the dark ship with white flag. The problem is the only ones that know him well are Aureliano and myself. A-hole doesn't even visit often so as to avoid running into Aureliano.

At Cabos hotel, right in middle of escalator, A-hole spots some guys coming in the other direction, and they were staring at Mini. He almost charges them as if they had made a pass at Mini. He definitely has anger issues to work on. the poor guys were just innocently looking at Mini. (why not, she is good eye candy for boys). Mini asks him how come he kept his fortune when MA was ruined by the scandal. A-hole won’t give details, changes subject to go visit the OB GYN to check if she is already expecting. Mini asks will you still love me when I am big and bulky? A-hole says I will always love you, but first things first!! (baby ASAP!)

As the birth of Montserrat's child approaches, everyone is drawn to Aquazul.

Montserrat has never left, of course.  She has passed the months of her pregnancy in the family home in Aguazul, suffering her mother's insults without the buffer of her father's love.  Carlota and Rosario do their best to make up for the affection that Graciela seems incapable of giving.  Montserrat's pregnancy has gone well.  She looks lovely these days. No longer in mourning, she is young and fresh in simple, floral dresses that easily accommodate, but don't conceal, the blossoming of her body.

Por Siempre Mi Amor #47 & 48 Let's All Help Isabel by Doing.... Nothing

Monday's episode was a combination of two episodes. I watched all of #47 and part of #48 online. They cut out a lot of scenes, some that I think were important. Everything that was cut out is in italics. I was scrambling to take notes during last half of the show. Because I didn't watch all of #48 there may be some other scenes that were left out that I didn't see and so I didn't include. What are you doing to us Univision!

Mary explains to the kids that although she loves them all very much she must leave because the police are looking for her. Borlas will be taking care of them. The kids let Daniel know that he'd better take good care of Mari or he'll have to deal with them. Big group hug. Mari lets Agatha know what's going on with her and the kids. Dante and Borlas watch her leave from behind the stairwell.

Esteban tells Ileana and Chris that someone tried to kill Ara and Isabel. The brake lines were cut and the air bags were disabled. What do they know about Javier?

Gabi tries to comfort Isabel. Nothing can ease her pain.

Gilberto plays chess with the Padre and tells him he has Daniel's future all planned out.
