PSMA (Por Siempre Mi Amor) Recap #58 (Really #'s 77 and 78)- Let's make it a drinking game, everytime Cuca blows a gasket, you take a swig!
AD and Isa
are anxious about FeVer and 'Za who come home together. FeVer is rather smug
but hospitable. AD and Isa explain about why BrunBrun is staying with them
since 'Za states she saw his car out. Dena (my name for Almudena) and Bruno
enter and FeVer turns on the charm towards Dena who introduces herself and Brun
just gives a stale, "Que Tal." (kill them with kindness Brun.) The
gang heads to eat dinner in the dining room.
Soni walks
into the kitchen where Cuca is and she calls her name, thus startling our
lovely MAID(en.) You startled me, my apologies, I just wanted to see my dad.
It's pertaining to (cue) Marianela (who is walking into the room clad in a body
hugging mint/pink dress, straightened hair and stilettos. PLEASE no Maricruz
Olivares 2.0 with Borlas or Daniel as Oblivio. ) Cuca looks as if she has blown
her gasket of the day in this episode but is thougthbubbling about how Soni is
FINALLY going to talk with Gil. Soni (as if she can read minds) snaps her out
of it and asks if Gil is home once again. Cuca responds with a no but they can
wait in the dispatcho. They do so. Opp, Cuca has one more gasket to blow as she
prays to God.

Mentir Para Vivir #98 Tue 2/25/14 Breaking News! Ricky Turned Down SEX! Oh and Antonio Got Whacked.
Ricky and Mariano fist bump one last time. Sorry, bro...I'm gonna have to "leave ya hangin this time'", says Mariano as he slowly drops his hand. The
heart monitor blares alerting the staff that the priest has flat-lined. Ricky steps aside so the doctor can check Mariano’s
carotid artery. This makes sense because
the flat-line noise is not proof enough that the priest
has croaked. The doctor tells Ricky that
Mariano is a goner and makes no attempt to resuscitate him.

Lo que la vida me robó, ep. 75, Tues., 2/25/14: Metamorphosis
Tonight Rosario is transformed. Some of us may see her cosmetic changes as unfortunate -- in a reversal of what happens in nature, the fragile elegance of this pale moth folds itself into a sturdy enveloping cocoon.
Why does Rosario have to change her image to assume her new role? Alejandro believes she will be prouder of herself and others will respect her more now that her appearance reflects her wealth and status. Is he right? Maybe so. Perhaps we are sentimentalizing something that, in Rosario's world, is a stigma. Why should her appearance continue to telegraph messages about race and class that make her more vulnerable than she needs to be?

MA and Saul keep playing switched lawyer/customer in front of the late guy’s sec. Saul keeps MA in check, warning they have to be careful about reaching out too much, A-hole might find out he is in town.
A-hole at office angry about the board old hags that won’t name him President of the bizness. Adolfo comes in unannounced and asks A-hole if he is finally the big Cahoona… Not yet. Adolfo asks maybe MA is working on fulfilling the grandpa clause out there in Europe. Even if your cousin is a runaway he won’t lose the rights if he complies with the clause before A-hole.

Gwendy says nepo is seeing enemies where there aren’t any. Nepo came up with an idea of keeping the enemy near… Diego Armando comes by and gets a fruit drink from them and leaves. Gwendy still very interested in hearing what Nepo is thinking to do.
Adolfo gets to the reason he is there, you have not transferred the money to my account yet. Adolfo asks A-hole for 10% extra as compensation for the delay and for having to take the risk to come back. A-hole assures him MA will be the only one to pay for it all.

Adolfo leaves and Vilma comes and A-hole says ‘the time to get rid of that one (Adolfo) has come’.

Mentir Para Vivir #97 Mon 2/24/14 A human life is a story told by God*
*I couldn’t think of a snarky title
for this recap, so I chose this quote by Danish author and poet, Hans Christian
Andersen. It seems appropriate, all things considered.
Oriana
is hiding the copy of the CD in the cover of her luggage. She looks worried,
but she has to dissimulate in front of Alina, who comes to talk about Tito needing
a bath.
Jl
takes a good look at his copy of the CD and then leaves the house. John is
following him and as soon as JL notices, he stops his car and goes to John’s to
threaten him with his gun: if he doesn’t stop the spying, he’s a dead man!
At
Aresti Bretton Piero and Mariano try to make Ric see reason (part 253). Piero
calls him a hysteric, doesn’t think that his relationship with Oriana will last
if all he does is try to control her every move. Ric thinks he was on the right,
because Oriana met with JL behind his back. When Piero tells him that Oriana
and JL share a past and a child and they can’t stay out of contact, Ric reminds
Piero of his failed marriage (which means that Piero is not the best when it
comes to relationships). Piero gets upset (rightfully, in my opinion) and
leaves.
Mariano
tries to calm Ric, too, but then they talk about his relationship with Jacqui
and how nothing physical really happened so far. Mariano explains that he spent
all his life refraining his sexual needs, so now it’s very hard to act on
them. Ric thinks that if he truly wants a family, Mariano needs to learn to
listen to his instincts;but if he only likes Jacqui in a platonic way, he should just
tell her the truth and not let her get her hopes up.

This episode is a combination of Mexico's episodes 75 and 76. Deleted scenes are in italics. Some scenes have been combined.
Dafne brings Aranza's clothes and her dog to Javier's place. Aranza wants to know if it's true that Dafne is dating Esteban.
"Well, you're in love with Javier, right? So Esteban is free."
"I thought you weren't into him because he was poor. You always called him a loser and a fool."
"He's good looking. I wanted to tell you what was going on before you found out from someone else." Aranza protests that it isn't cool that Dafne broke the "woman's code" but Dafne counters with, "A woman has a right to change her mind." As Dafne leaves she turns and kisses Aranza's cheek. "You know I love you."
At Tita's, Mari is facing off with Borlas. He wants to know why Mari is involved with Daniel. She tells Borlas that Daniel is in love with her. And Borlas has failed her. Twice. He is involved with the wrong people and there will be no forgiveness from her.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo, Capitulo 74. 02/24/14
Refugio tries calling Esme put gets her voice mail. He wants her to return.
Maria is glad Ale is back. She wants to say goodbye. She's leaving before she gets thrown out on her ear. Ale offers her money but where she's going it will not be needed. When Ale asks her what she means, he notices she has slit her wrists. She passes out as blood is dripping to the floor. Ale calls for re-enforcements. He tells Rosario to get bandages while Victor calls an ambulance.
Next day, Refugio has fallen asleep waiting for Esme's return. He tries calling her again but gets voice mail. He wants to make sure she is okay. He gets a call from Angie and tells her he is on his way.
Maria asks Ale why didn't he let her die? Ale says what she did was really stupid. Maria says she has no one else but him. You all are ready to throw me out on my ear. Where else will I go? I am alone. I have no one and don't want to live without you. I prefer to be dead. Ale advises Maria to rest and they will talk later. Ale sends Margarita to watch after Maria. Victor asks if he thinks Maria would try it again? Ale doesn't know but Maria is not well. Ale turns to his mother and says he doesn't know what to do. Rosario understands his anguish but believes what everyone else on the patio has been saying. She did it to get attention. Maria knows once you bring Montse and your son, she will have to go. Ale says she has no one in this world. Rosario understands but reminds him that Maria and Montse don't get along. Macario agrees. Maria will only get in between you again. Ale feels bad since he has known her all his life. Victor tells him to wait until she gets better. Ale tells Macario to fetch Dominga from the hacienda and bring her back. Macario will do it gladly. Ale also wants him to bring Padre Anselmo. He wants to baptize his son by the end of the week. He also says he wants to take advantage so that he and Montse can get married again. The reason they got divorced was to get rid of all the bad mojo. Now they want to get re-married to start fresh. Happy faces all around. Ale plans to visit Montse and invites Rosario to tag along. Rosario jumps at the chance to hold her grandson again.

TELEMUNDO Y MÁS: LA IMPOSTORA -- week of February 24, 2014
Here's your page for the week. Enjoy!
TELEMUNDO Y MÁS: SANTA DIABLA -- ¡Gran Final!
Gran Final
Sue in TN - you get the prize for having your prediction of the ending be the closest to what actually happened. Let's see how you did:
SUE- Humberto comes downstairs to find Santa is gone. He drops off willy with Willy at the hospital and then somehow figures out where Santiago is and heads to the warehouse.
ACTUAL - very close. Bert comes downstairs, finds Santa gone and takes willy to Begoña's house. Willy is at the hospital with Barb and Begoña is tied up in the warehouse with Santi but Paula is there.
At the warehouse, Santi is in a tux with his hair slicked back. He has made Santa put on a wedding dress and tells her to stop telling him that he is sick. Santa finds Begoña's phone and manages to mute the sound and call Bert with the phone behind her back. She gives Bert some clues about where she is but when she keeps asking Santi how he found this place, even he gets suspicious and finds the phone.
SUE - Pancho also heads to the warehouse.
ACTUAL - Bert heads off to the warehouse and Paula calls Pancho and gives him the information.
SUE - As Father Milton is about to pronounce Santiago and Santa husband and wife, Bert arrives. He and Santi have a life or death struggle. Bert loses. Bert lies Pietà-like in Santa's arms. She forgives him all his sins. He dies, redeemed at the end.
ACTUAL - Very close, again. Bert comes in just as Father Milton has said, “you may kiss the bride.” Santa uses her Diabla skills to elbow Santi in the neck and run towards Bert. In excruciatingly slow motion, Santi raises his gun, Bert pushes Santa away and takes the bullet. Bert just dies on the floor, doesn’t say much and Santa just calls for an ambulance. Very undramatic. Maybe they didn’t think Gaby Espino could handle a scene like you describe.
SUE - Meanwhile, Pancho - who has lost the most as the result of Santiago and who is the real hero of our story - ends up killing him. Then, he disarms the bomb by cutting the right wire.
ACTUAL - This was wrong. Nobody kills Santi, he is arrested and the whole bomb part of the story is ignored. Lucky that Santi didn't keep his finger on the detonator. Zero drama there.
SUE - Willy arrives. Comforts Santa. She goes back home with him and Begoña to pick up the pieces of her life shattered by the Canos. Pancho is done with police work and decides to leave Marrero
ACTUAL - The last part is right. It’s “meses despues,” “months later,” Pancho tells Lucy that he is leaving the police force and Marrero. He tells her that he doesn’t like women and thanks to Ulíses, whose grave they are at, he now understands his true self. Lucy is pretty calm about losing her chance at marriage. They say that they will always care about each other.
SUE - Other characters
Lucy joins Tránsito in the restaurant business
ACTUAL - Novela Maven was closer on this one. We see Tránsito singing her version of the Santa song in the restaurant (with improved decoration). I don’t know if the video has gone viral but maybe. Pancho asks her if she has seen Patricio. “No,” replies Tránsito, “it’s as if the earth (or her customers) have swallowed him up.” Lucy does not seem to be involved.
SUE - Ivan gives Victoria the Christmas she never will see. She dies in his arms
ACTUAL - 100% correct although that was pretty easy to predict.
SUE - Elisa decides to use the plane ticket and leaves for Canada, since there’s nothing there in Marrero for her anymore
ACTUAL - Elisa didn’t make the gran final.
SUE - Paula and René leave for Guatemala and a new life with René’s family
ACTUAL - Much weirder. In the “meses despues” we see Paula with a baby, presumably her baby. Willy is there but no René. Santa is pregnant. She is sad that Bert never knew that he had fathered yet another child but she is happy in her flat affect way.
SUE - Father Milton reschedules the baptisms and weddings he missed due to having a bomb strapped to his chest.
ACTUAL - I'm sure he did but we don't see that.
SUE - Francisca cannot accept that Barb is disfigured. Newly sainted Lisette says she can live in her home. There's plenty of space. Daniela decides to keep her baby because, in her mind, she doesn't want to reject her child as Francisca did hers.
ACTUAL - Not quite. Barb’s face is so damaged that even Alicia’s surgeon can’t repair it. She and Fran are living in the Cano house. Fran is annoyed at having to wait on Barb who has wrapped herself up in black, stays in the dark and keeps saying over and over, “Fui bella,” “I was beautiful.” This is driving Fran nuts. Those two deserve each other.
Daniela gives up her baby for adoption to a couple we’ve never seen before. [Too bad Arturo and Mara]. Padre Milton looks on approvingly. Daniela gives a little speech saying that when she saw her baby, she loved her but she knows that she is not ready to be a mother, etc. etc.
SUE - And speaking of Fran, she's all alone - her family either dead or gone. But at least she has that big home to keep her warm.
ACTUAL - see above.
Other stuff not in Sue’s prediction.
Ivan writes another book called, “Immortal,” about his love for Victoria and that also will warn women to get mammograms to get early warning of breast cancer.
Willy goes to see Alicia. He says that it is too bad she let her desire for vengeance be stronger than their love. They could have been happy together. Alicia asks if he will wait for her. Willy seems to indicate that he will but that seems unlikely.
Santi is locked in an asylum. He says “Santa” over and over. A nurse brings him food but he doesn’t want to eat - actually he can’t feed himself since he is in a straight jacket. The nurses carelessly leave the door of his room open ...
Santa and family have ordered pizza at Begoña’s house. The doorbell rings. Santa goes to get it. For some reason, the pizza guy is standing about 10 feet from the door. How did he ring the bell? Santa has to go down the walk to pay the guy. She looks up and there is Santi standing by a tree across the street. A car goes by. She looks again and Santi is gone. Begoña comes out and asks what is wrong. “Hug me, mother,” she says, “Todo esto debió ser un mal sueño, nada más” “All this had to be a bad dream, nothing more.”
“All this” what? The pizza guy? With this sort of enigmatic ending, we get the Fin and it’s over. I give this gran final about a C- . It had less drama than one of Carlos Ponce’s State Farm commercials. Aaron Diaz managed to make what my sister calls, “fierce face” but Carlos Ponce looked like he was just phoning it in. On to the next novela. I’m going to watch (and probably recap) En Otra Piel. Thanks for all the great recaps and comments. It was fun.

Mentir Para Vivir #96 Fri 2/21/14 JL Offers Oriana Manna From Heaven
Lo Del Pasado:
Mariano and Jaquie decide to continue dating and see where it leads.
Lo Del Nuevo:
Oriana brings Alina over to Fort Falcon for the weekly visitation. Samuel's thug spies on JL and the family's arrival. Things are great till Jose Luis and Ori argue about his thinking Ricardo would show preference to his own children over Alina if Ori marries the guy. (At least Lina and he still are able to have a good time together without Oriana prejudicing the kid against him again.)
The Widow Barragán and the head of the Syndicate's Big Dude Council, Patrick, discuss how likely Jose Luis is to keep his word about handing over the CD and keeping mum now that she's offered to keep Joquin's promise to JL about giving him his freedom from the mob. Her only worry is that her sociopath-etic BIL, Samuel, will go off the reservation and that will lead to one of JL's trusted contacts handing over another copy of the thing to Homero de la Garza. Then they'll all be toast. Rosa, Joquin's widow, says the best thing to do is just forget all about Falcon, but Patrick says they can't because de la Garza is a bloodhound [pero de caza= literal, a hunting dog] who won't let go till he's got them all in irons.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo #73- 2/21/14: A Mystery, A "Secret" Revealed, and a Life In The Balance!
Ahoy Amiguis! So many points to ponder in this episode. Another mystery is revealed, there is a disappearance, a date, a "secret" revealed and a life on the line. Want to know more? I have another earworm for our, for now, happily back together couple, Ale and Monse. Have a listen! Tell It Like It Is.
This recap will be my usual off the cuff, on the fly recap. If I make a mistake please let me know. As usual when you see a blue link, click on it and listen to the music I've picked for these characters. Shall we begin?
We start with the refried of Ale, Monse, and the blurred bebe butt changing scene. Univision, really? As they they are leaving each other, that would be Ale and Monse, lots of besos (kisses), te amos ( I love you) and mi amors (my loves). Tia looks on and smiles. Monse tells her Ale signed the divorce papers and she couldn't be happier. Tia is quite perplexed!
EZ calls Tia Lottie to see if she received the flowers. She did, thank you very much, those orchids are just gorgeous. He asks the Tia to dinner, she would love to go. Gracie, the ice water queen, comes in and harshes Ms Tia's mellow. She tells Gracie that Monse and Ale made up, that's not possible says Gracie, Ale just signed those divorce papers and she's not beleiving a thingy Lottie is telling her. Lottie tells her Monse and Ale are sooo very happy. Gracie still doesn't get it!

Que Pobres tan Ricos #34 Friday Feb 21, 2014... AS is happily living the life she is used to, CHAAAAARGE IT!! to the corporate office (yikes!)... Mini discovers about A-hole and Adolfo setting up MA for the fraud...
Argument continues about whether AS stole the money. MA defends her, being a daughter of Mexican aristocracy does not mean she doesn’t have values. Chuy also believes AS would not do that to them. MA puts a face like ‘I wish I could believe that myself’.
Nepo and Gwendy arrive at fonda with Carmelita. They had locked the door because of the argument. JT comes out to explain.
Meanwhile AS has arrived somewhere in a taxi. (seems a high end spa where they already know her)
Back to Fonda. Lupe still upset about the stolen money. Nepo also in disbelief. Apparently Tomas is about to spill the beans about AS being a ‘person of interest’ but the menchacas quickly take Tomas away. Nepo will call his brother in law the police commander. He calls him.
Adolfo arrives at A-hole’s and is mad. A-hole was not willing to give him any time on a Sunday. Adolfo tells him Saul Ballesteros has been following him around. A-hole lets him come in. Again Mini hears the conversation between A-hole and Adolfo. Adolfo not willing to end up in jail. Adolfo demands A-hole to clean his name and find the money for the deal with ‘El Bambi’. A-hole will ask Vilma to take care of it. A-hole also mentions that it is an issue about MA. A-hole laughs when Adolfo leaves ‘darn imbecile, I wish I could see his face when he is arrested’. Mini does not hear this last line since she had to hide before Adolfo left the room.

Meanwhile AS has arrived somewhere in a taxi. (seems a high end spa where they already know her)
Back to Fonda. Lupe still upset about the stolen money. Nepo also in disbelief. Apparently Tomas is about to spill the beans about AS being a ‘person of interest’ but the menchacas quickly take Tomas away. Nepo will call his brother in law the police commander. He calls him.

Tonight's episode is a combination of episodes 73 and 74. The deleted scenes are in blue.

Pasado
Feo is choking Sucia
because she snitched to Art. Is she jealous! He will be bored with that stupid
girl soon. She didn't snitch it was her friends. Remember that they
are partners, but you sent Rodolfo's wife my picture. What kind of partnership
is that? How do you know that it's me? Ole Sugar Daddy was discreet, so you
would be the only one with access to pictures. Feo pretends as if he
doesn't know, but Sucia thinks that the apartment is bugged full of cameras and
Feo tries to persuade Sucia to think that The Raisin had other women, but Sucia
is not buying it. The problem for them is that Fab promised his aunt that
he would find out who the woman is in the photos and that will be problematic
for her. Sucia knows that he took the pictures and Feo admits that it was him.
He warns Sucia that it's better to work with him than against him because
he always gets what he wants.

- Ara tells Feo how she is defending him and he just loves her more and more each day (Barf). She is almost where he wants her.
- Art and Fab have a friendly, brotherly chat. Art wants to let his dad and Fab's mom clear up their mess. Art wants to know more about Javier's character and explains the whole kit and kaboodle, including that Javier is his daughter's boo, to Fab. Art shares that there are too many coincidences with Javier and Fab agrees.

Qué Pobres, Weds 2/19/14 (#33): Cold Feet and Sticky Fingers
Updated with new stuff in green.
Leo and Frida both have mixed emotions about leaving the Menchaca home. Frida says she'll miss "her people," but she's obviously excited about having stuff again. Leo admits that living in La Nopalera has brought out his creative side, but he still can't wait to get out of there.
Separately, but in unison, Lupita and MA both wonder and worry about the purpose of Vilma's visit yesterday. Maybe Ahole found out about Emiliano, or perhaps he suspects that Mati is hidden there.
JT gives Frida the equipment rental fee. (Net profit from the event was 1500 pesos.) They boldly state how much they won't miss one another. Then Frida kisses him and takes off. A moment later, Mati notices that JT is in good spirits.
After a particularly unsatisfactory shower, AS swipes the money. She has a moment of hesitation and prays for a "sign." The "sign" is a really big fart, which she interprets as meaning "go for it."

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo #72- 2/19/14: Are You Happy Now?
I am putting up a discussion page for tonight's epi of "Robo". Eli has suffered a loss and is unable to do the recap. Please discuss, fill in and comment as you like. Here are some of the highlights:
Nadia accuses EZ of being Pedro's amante; look on EZ's face, Priceless!
Ale comes to Monse's house and says he signed the divorce papers, and he still loves Monse. Funny thing she loves him too. He feeds the bebe and smooches Monse. They are in seventh heaven, but are we? And how long can this last?
Fina wants to give Dimmy his freedom. Graceless comes and tells him Ale will want DNA proof of his being a sibling of Don Benny's but no matter, she can take care of that, and they will be in the money. She also slapped him and for a hot minute it looked like he'd slap her back, but he goes and Fina wants him to pack his suitcase, but it doesn't look like Dimmy is going anywhere.

Alina runs inside yelling for her mother to come see what just came. It's roses from...none other then Pretty Ricky thanking her for the “gift” she has given him. Alina doesn't understand why she got flowers since it isn't even her birthday. So what does it say asks Nosy Lina. Orinez tells her nun-ya business and sends her off to wash her hands.
Pretty Ricky, Mariano and Pierro talk about Mariloca's situation. Mariano, the good man he is, tries to defend Mariloca but Pierro silences him with a “Then why the hell did she bring the gun for”? Pierro wants to know when Pretty Ricky is going to divorce the crazy one. Soon replies Pretty Ricky especially after Orinez gave me a wonderful “gift”. I'm going to be a dad! Pierro wants to know why Pretty Ricky ain't jumping up with joy for knocking up Orinez. He says he doesn't feel much like celebrating knowing Fabs is still in grave danger.

Of course it's Orinez replies Pierro. Cielo offers his congrats and Pretty Ricky asks that they tell no one especially Tia Fidelia.

Que Pobres Tan Ricos #32- 2/18/14: The Return of the Stinky Suit!
Hola Amiguis! I am filling in for Marta for this Capitulo. Let's get started shall we? It will not be in order, I hope to keep it brief, it's on the fly from memory, and darn since MA put on that Luchadore costume we are back to counting at 1 again for the Stinky Suit. If he hadn't put on the Luchadore costume we would have been at day 28 for that Stinky Suit. So it's back to square one.
MA is being pounded in the ring. Pobrecito, but Leo and Frida have realized he is in the ring and go to help him get out of that ring. They go to Lupe. At this very moment the real Blue Tooth shows up, he was running late, so now finally Don Chuy realizes something is wrong. Lupe gets the news that MA is in that ring, she comes out at the same time that Don Chuy is trying to stop the fight. Lupe stops it by throwing something like water or juice in the opponent's face as they drag MA out of there and take him off.
To make up for the the stopped fight Don Chuy as the "Hijo de Sumatra" and Chilaquiles do a round or two of dancing. The vecinidad peeps aren't too happy and throw stuff at them in the ring. Everyone ends up leaving but some peeps want their money back.

Mentir Para Vivir #94 Tue 2/18/14 My Boys Can Swim Baby! I'm Going to Be A Father!*
On Blueberry Hill, Ricky, Jose Luis and Mariano continue the
brainstorming summit on ways to prevent Rhodalina and Oriana from
getting whacked by Sammy the Bull. The
CD is the only thing keeping him alive right now and he will only give it to
someone he trust. Rick is eliminated
because he is Jose Luis’ mortal enemy and keeps boinking his wife, Mariano looks like and angel, but
he has a big mouth and might go to the feds. Mariano says that Homero is a good man; Jose
Luis scoffs and says that Homero is trickier than he is. Jose Luis believes that the only way to
protect them is to lock them in the house.
After Jose Luis departs, Ricky and Mariano discuss how they will
convince Oriana to stay in the house and not send Rhodalina to school. Mariano thinks that Jose Luis will give it to
Rosa. Ricky’s tired of dealing with
criminals, assassins and smugglers…and that’s just his own relatives. Now he has to deal with Jose Luis’ problems
too? Again, Mariano suggests that they
involve Homero.

Por Siempre Mi Amor #53 US - Liars, Cheaters, Low-Lifes and Crazies Everywhere!
Hola, Peeps! I thought this was a suitable Tuesday funny:
This episode is a combination of episodes 67 and 68 in Mexico. Deleted scenes that weren't shown in the US episode are in italics. I hope I got everything right. These episodes had a lot going on! Some scenes have been combined.
Leftovers:
Katia tells Fabricio that his father is still alive.
Main Dish:
All these years Katia has been protecting Fabricio. She made up the lie that his father was dead to protect him from what people might say if they knew he was the son of a single mother. She claims her lover never told her that he was married.
"He denied me?" asks Fabricio. "Yes, I was in love with him. But he threw us out."
Katia saw him at the church service and he followed her afterward. He threatened that he'd tell Fabricio the truth and even wanted to force her into leaving town!

Qué Pobres, Lunes 2/17/14 (#31): In which MA loses a fight with a chair. Again.
AS notices that MA is constantly looking at his watch. She asks what's up with that. I don't think this is ever explained.
JT's concert comes to a premature end with an impromptu kickboxing match. Actually, it's more of a mismatch, since Tato grossly underestimates his opponent. Ouch! Chuy warns Tato, a bit too late, that JT knows what he's doing and he'll bust Tato's tangerine. But Chuy also tells JT, "Get out of the ring or I'll throw you out."
Upstairs, Leo, MA, and AS hear the ruckus and worry about Frida. Leo volunteers to check up on her - and admits that he'll also be looking for something to eat.
Outside, Tato tells Frida she's coming with him; she says no. He begs her for another chance; she says no. He vows to get her back.

Chapter
70: The Slings and Arrows of Outrageous Truth
Mendoza
Manor / Valverde Manor: Lady Monserrat had absorbed the full
impact of this ugly revelation about her mother. She sat with her
aunt in shock. Upstairs in Valverde Manor, her brother wept in a
most immature and unmanly manner, crouching in a corner. Lady
Josefina entered, concerned for him, but he ran, not wishing to speak
of this scandalous situation. She stood there in agonized confusion.
The
Following Day:
Unidentified
Drawing Room: Pedro Medina looked about the drawing room,
enquiring of Lady Nadia whether she liked the mansion. She was
surprised, saying she could not understand his desire to move. He
spoke of needing a better residence for when he would win the
governorship of their state. When she noted that it was too large
for the two of them he spoke of children and how he would want to
hear them running in the house. Lady Nadia informed him that she
would not give him a child. He threw it in her face that she wanted
to have children and how he always obtained what he wanted.
When he left her standing alone her resolve tightened, her expression
saying that what she would most want was to be rid of him.

Mentir Para Vivir #93 Mon 2/17/14 Bad news travels fast and it’s really bad
Ruben, Cesar, Seb and Leo
are at the hospital. The doctor tells them that Fabiola has lost the baby and she’s
in danger, too – she lost a lot of blood and needs a transfusion. Seb mentions
the HIV and the doctor says this adds to her problem, too. Also, the baby wouldn’t
have made it anyway, because Fabi suffered from placenta previae (according
to Wikipedia, this is “an obstetric complication in which the placenta is inserted partially or wholly in lower uterine
segment” (for whatever it’s worth and for those who understand medical stuff
better).
Raquel is explaining to Jacqui
about Oriana and Ric’s relationship (apparently skipping the whole fake identity thing, since she's calling her Ines); then Lucina gives them and Oriana the bad
news about the baby. Oriana thinks it was all her fault, but nobody agrees with
her. In her own, particular manner, Raquel makes a comparison between herself and
Marilu – she was at once interested in Ric, too, but that didn’t mean that she
decided to go around trying to kill people; Marilully is just crazy and if she
didn’t like suffering so much, Oriana would enjoy the fact that now she will be
able to marry Ric.
I think Raquel kind of has a
point here.

RECAP WRITTEN ON THE FLY AND QUICKER THAN USUAL (my apologies).
Refried of Maria and Monse giving each other the stinkeye. Monse tells Bitch Maria that Ale is all hers, Monse doesn't want that douchebag anymore. Monse gave him a perfect out by filing for divorce, but the idiot wouldn't sign the papers! Bitch Maria seems uneasy about that. She tries to convince Ale to sign the papers, but now that Ale knows that he's the baby daddy, there's no way. Bitch Maria also informs him that JL won't be pressing charges.
Ale confesses to Bitch Maria that he's been an idiot, he's been wrong about anything and he hopes he can prevent losing his wife and child. He needs to get out of prison ASAP! Bitch Maria does not look happy about this.
Rosario is telling Tia how exciting and emotional it was when she outted herself to Ale as his mom, and how wonderful it was to hear him call her "Mom." She's going to try to convince Ale that Monse was never unfaithful.
Angelica's mom is worried about Angelica's wellbeing, with JL being in the hospital and not doing well. Mom wants Angel to look after herself, but Angelica won't be happy if she's not around JL. Angel tells her mom that JL is in pretty bad shape and needs her, and furthermore, if JL kicks the bucket, what reason does Angel have to keep alive herself? Off Angel goes to look after her hubby and her mom doesn't try to stop her.
Angel's dad visits Ale and they discuss his situation. Ale is starting to think that maybe JL and Monse were not betraying him after all. Angel's dad will help Ale get out of jail. Medina can help do it. Ale doesn't trust Medina, but Angel's dad asks, "You trust me, don't you?" Angel's dad wants to make a business deal with Ale—the lands that Medina is after, don't sell them, but let Angel's dad (don't recall his name) well, let Angel's dad oversee them and use them. It would be good business. Ale looks like he's considering it.

Que pobres tan ricos #30 Feb 14, 2014 Updated. The event day... some surprises, some chaos and out of nowhere, a knight in shining armor!! and for Mini and A-hole.. an unexpected request.
Chuy: Chamaca si, tacones no!
Nepo offers help… gives Chuy the money. Chuy confesses to Lupita. Lupita nodding at Nepo.
Lo Nuevo:
A-hole arguing with Vilma about the Nopalera property. Not normal for my grandpa’s ‘tastes’. Vilma would rather not go to a place like that ‘a woman with ‘class’ like me’. He suggests she go with a chofer or with some escort from the company. Mini comes in, A-hole gets sloppy with her, Vilma about to gag.
Lupita argues with Chuy about having accepted the loan from Nepo. Chuy says not time to get too proud. Chuy almost spills the beans about the ‘cousins’, Lupita signals him and he fakes choking. Nepo tries to make amends, but Lupita not buying what he’s selling. Lupita miffed at Chuy for not having consulted her.
By ring, JT and Frida, JT nervous, Frida calls her friends, apparently the equipment has not arrived. [ The guy on the other end phone gives her the excuse of having a hard time finding the place. Seems like the guy is Tato’s buddy. He asks Tato what to tell her. Tato says he is planning his own surprise for Frida.]
Back to fonda/ring. Listening to her phone call, JT smells a rat. But just then the guys arrive. They guys see the place with the ring and say its “a bit freaky”. JT and his friend go out with the guys to unload the equipment, Frida leans on ring and sighs in relief. Her ex boyfriend finally makes his entrance and she is surprised (and not too positively) to see him there. She just wants him to leave. He claims he was just worried about her. She is just helping these guys out. And yes, she is living there. He tries to grab her and JT comes to her rescue. They guy talks down to JT. They mock that JT is named ‘Tizoc’. Leo recognizes ‘Tato’ from up the steps and warns MA about it.
Lupita finally gives in and accepts and thanks Nepo for the money. Chuy hugs Nepo. Que Dios se lo pague. Lupita won’t have the ‘Dios se lo pague’, she will pay him for every peso. But she is thankful nonetheless. Chuy and Nepo relieved.

Por Siempre Mi Amor US #52 2/14/14-Worst Valentine's Day Ever
I have no idea what Mexican capitulos we got tonight. The notes that follow are based on what was aired by Univision. I'll flesh it out more tomorrow.
- Osvi and Tita plan to announce their engagement, but Art takes a page from Bruno's book (How To Be a Jerk and Alienate Loved Ones by T. Inpunchbowl) and spills all of Osvi's dirty laundry beans. Osvi has a son AND he never acknowledged him or gave him his name. Osvi swears he tried to take responsibility, but Katia disappeared and only recently showed up. Tita is devastated, breaks up the party and asks Osvi to leave.
- FeVier acts like a jealous girl and tells Ara if she's so bothered by Este seeing them together, then she should go console him.
- Ara confronts Ileana about letting Este in their room. Ileana swears it was Dafne and that she kept her word and didn't say a word about FeVier showing up. Ara doesn't believe her. Later Ileana confronts Dafne, who denies she did anything wrong.
- Este pouts and Chris encourages him to forget the capricious twit. (I'll rewatch and add more detail tomorrow.)

Francisco's henchdude comes to pick up Lina's bicycle, but Ric refuses and Paloma backs him up. Paloma demands to know if Homero can't have him picked up already! But Homero's only mostly sure. What he is sure about is that we're nearly done with this schlock. And that Jackie doesn't know who he is, or that he was after her dad. "Or she's a good liar," Ric points out.
Mariano gives Jackie the tour of Hermosillo. She gets to see the Deer Dance in a plaza and then they go off to look at some pottery.
Mama Barragan shows up at Casa Bonito, where she's welcomed by Lucina. Lucina apologizes for not being able to give Mama B a room, cause they're all full up. After some confusion about Jackie's name, they establish that yes, she is staying there. Mama B looks anxious.
Mariano shows Jackie some Yaqui and Seri crafts in a little store. He talks about how long it takes to weave a basket that's nearly his size. Jackie asks about the Pitic festival. Mariano says that was the original name of the city and he'd really like her to stay and see it. He invites her to lookout point…makeout point?

Que Pobres Tan Ricos #29- 2/13/14: Let The Bouts Begin!
Hola Amguis! Another rapid fire speech capitulo! My Spanish may be "off" but please fill in what I missed. This is done mainly from memory and will not be in order so as to flow better. Happy Valentine's Day Y'all!
It is Day 25 of the Infamous Smelly Suit!
MA and Lupe, she found the papers and is about to look at them, when MA catches her. He isn't pleased and tells her it's not nice to nose through others' stuff. She is petulant at being caught and tells him she could have thrown it in the trash. MA insists this paperwork is to prove his innocence and que horror! this should be lost. Better guard it better she says. They both are in a huff as he goes.
This part had alot of slang so bear with me. Frida is telling JT she is trying to borrow some equipment, of the sound variety, to replace what she "accidently" ruined. JT thinks it's a trick, but she assures him it is professional equipment, but it probably won't be there until just before the bout, the people she knows are professional musicians and use the equipment too. (Thanks Marta) JT wants to know why she is so willing to help him out, cause she's responsible she says. JT thinks she's jealous of Vanessa his novia? She could care less about Vanessa, yeah, right, sure, sure, her face speaks otherwise. JT accepts the help.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo capitulo 68, 13 February, 2014 - Mother and Child Reunion
Mother and Child Reunion
A Screaming Baby
In the Mendoza mansion a baby screams. The rooms in the ancient house are large, graciously proportioned and beautifully furnished. The baby, Lauro Mendoza, is not alone, but he might as well be. His grandmother, an extravagantly dressed forty-something aged woman, rushes about the house frantically, making swooshing noises where her Spanx meets silk dress and tapping sounds as she navigates the antique clay floor tiles in her sky high heels.
Lauro’s grandmother, who is called Graciela, is mumbling under her breath in Spanish, incongruously carrying a full baby bottle in her hand. She seems to be made anxious by little Lauro’s incessant wailing, but she does nothing to comfort him. She does not offer him the bottle, or comfort or simple human companionship. She offers him nothing.
There is a knock at the front door. Graciela hands the maid the baby bottle and yells that she will answer the door. Two younger women, they are called Nadia and Josefina, wait outside. Graciela rudely responds to her would-be guests, bitterly complaining that the baby’s crying is driving her mad and that she is desperate for news. Belatedly, she invites the women into the house.
They tell her that Jose Luis Alvarez in in the hospital but that he yet lives. After she hears this information Graciela he makes a hasty grab for her handbag and nearly runs out the front door.
Lauro is still crying. Josefina wonders if they should have told Doña Graciela that Alejandro Almonte is in jail. Nadia says no, if Montserrat has told her mother nothing, then she has her reasons. Nadia and Josefina hurry toward little Lauro’s room to offer the child comfort and care.

Mentir Para Vivir #90 Wed 2/12/14 Historias y Reflejos de una Novela que el Viento se Llevo
Precocious Alina shows Ricky her nifty new camera! Oopsie,
there’s a pic of Moms and Pops kissing! Ruh-roh! Ricky, true to
form, blows a gasket. To his credit, he waits until Alina is out of earshot.
Ines tells him not to let his imagination go wild. JL suddenly
turned to plant a hot one on her at the same moment Alina took the
picture. She couldn't very well reject him and put up a fight with Alina
there. Ricky wonders how far she'd be willing to go for her daughter and
she tells him as far as she has to. He's wrong if he thinks she's going
back to JL. Ricky starts to whine about having to go to Paloma's in the
hopes of running into her. Ines tells him she doesn't want her daughter growing
up bitter. She reminds him she was once very much in love with JL but
although Ricky may not believe her, he
is the love of her life. She walks away and he asks himself if he'll
continue to be her love tomorrow or the day after?

Qué Pobres, Wednesday 2/12/14 (#28): The Poo of Reckoning
Alt titles:
- DaVinci's Magic Poop
- Incident of the Blurred Turd
(I feel a little guilty about going for the crappy jokes, but I just can't stop. I could try to dance around the subject, but I'd end up getting it all over my shoes.)
Adolfo tells the board of directors, or whatever they are, that he had nooooo idea that MA was defrauding the company, but that explains why MA didn't listen to any of Adolfo's suggestions and wanted to do it alllllll by himself. Adolfo will cooperate with the law in every way possible.
After Adolfo leaves, Ahole tells the board that he's been doing his own investigation, and he's sure that Adolfo was in on the fraud with MA. He doesn't have enough evidence yet, though, so he wants to keep Adolfo around for now. "Like my grandfather used to say, keep your enemies close!"
Later, Vilma worries that Adolfo might find out what Ahole is saying behind his back. Ahole is sure he's a step ahead of Adolfo. "He'll never even know it was me," he brags. Vilma tries to make a move on him. Oblivious Ahole thinks she's making a weird face at him.

Por Siempre Mi Amor #50 (U.S.), 2/12/14: FeVier Gets Busted, But the Raisin Gets Whacked
Mexico Episodes #61
& 62
Read more »
Alternate Title:
Fabricio Should Have Stayed in Monterrey, Away From These Crazy People
If I have time during the snow day tomorrow, I’ll look at
the Mexican episodes and add things that Uni cut out. But our condensed Uni
episode was filled to the brim with revelations and surprises!
Isabel is on the phone with FeVier making arrangements to
meet up tomorrow. Gabi just wants Isa to get to the point, and kick the guy out of her condo. When she hangs up, Isa tries to downplay all
the coincidences, which Gabi points out—he saved her life, then he turns up
working for their internet security company, and now he’s renting her
penthouse! He’s probably one of those obsessed stalkers. Gabi wants to tag along to the meeting. Isa
downplays again. Gabi has been watching too much Law and Order-SVU. Isa doesn’t think they should judge him just
because he reminds them of Fernando, but she does want to figure out a tactful
way of kicking him out of her condo.
Arturo reads the letters Katia left him. In them, Osvaldo
tells Katia that she is the love of his life. Had they met years earlier
(before he met his wife), then their story would have had a different end. Art
can’t continue to read the letters, nor can he believe it. He calls Dr. Elias
Caranza and asks him to come to the house right away. He shakes and holds his
head in disbelief.
That night, Sonia arrives home, still marveling that Fabricio
is Osvaldo’s son and Art’s (half) brother. Feo arrives and brags about how much
success he’s having seducing her niece. And now that he knows Aranza is inexperienced,
he is eager to plow that virgin soil and be her first. He is certain that she
is VERY in love with him. Sonia isn’t surprised considering he’s been pulling
out all the stops to romance Ara, just like he did with her (hmmm…a bit more
back story on these two). Ah, but you see, that’s not enough for Feo. He wants
to rob Ara of her will (voluntad)! He wants her to only see through his eyes.
Since Ara is balking on presenting him to her parents, he’s going to keep
trying to make inroads with becoming Isa’s friend. Who can resist Javier’s charms?
He’s not like Fernando. He’s educated, well-mannered, classy, and she owes him
her life. He loves the idea that Ara will be his (sexually) in the same place
that Isa was his mujer. S: “You’re such a pervert, Diablo.” He can’t wait for the day Art and Isa meet
their daughter’s novio, and even more for the day when they learn who he is.
Sonia points out that that will be the day he goes to jail. Feo is not worried.
He has a plan. All this nefarious talk makes them horny and they start making
out. All the while being recorded by the hidden camera Feo installed.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robó, #67, 2/12/14: Duel on the PLAYA
It's on!
“A man may shoot the man who invades his character, as he may shoot him who attempts to break into his house.” -Samuel Johnson
An action-packed episode, amigas and amigos, with some significant movement forward ¡por fin! in our drama! I'll skip the first refrito and get to the main action.
Alejandro's Beach House, Agua Azul: Victor and Alejandro discuss the meeting that Montse (actually, Gracie sending a text pretending to be Montse) proposed between Alejandro and herself. Ever-reasonable Victor wonders if Ale is going and thinks he should--maybe Montse has something to say that will clear up Alejandro's doubts. Ale responds that the only thing she wants is to protect José-Luis. Victor suggests that maybe Montse wants to protect Ale himself.
Unfortunately, Ale is still on an interminable tour of duty in his own private WAR OF BITTERNESS AND IMPLACABLE RESENTMENT and (why am I even writing it since we all know what he's going to say?) talks again about how Montse and J-L tricked him, laughed at him, and how his life is hell. It's a thorn in his manly breast. He maintains J-L should have talked to him (Ale) man to man when he (J-L) first came to the hacienda, but Nooooo--J-L had to go and pass himself off as someone else. Ale is upset because he confided in J-L and treated him as a friend. And once again Alejandro declares that what makes him the most enraged is the fact that EVERYONE ELSE KNEW.

Victor urges Ale to calm down for what must be the gazillionth time since episode 52 when the truth first came out, but, even at episode 67, Ale is still not listening and says don't tell him to be calm when an he feels like an idiot for being duped and how he can't forget what happened. He ends the scene by declaring that only thing he can do is make J-L pay with his life for destroying Ale's. I think he's said this before, but given that I know what's going to happen as I write, he means it even more than ever.

Mentir Para Vivir, #89, HIGHLIGHTS A photo is worth a thousand words
Yesterday I recapped by mistake Tuesday's episode (that's why you got that butchered version of Monday, but I hope I made it up to you all with that crazy hot video).
Cynderella already posted her snarktastic recap, so I won't go through all the details again; I just want to share some of the highlights, since this is an episode I quite enjoyed.

There is a new kid on the block
Ric and Mariano are in a bar, talking about the same old, same old. Ric is married, Ines is married and sick of men as of late; Ric is afraid Ines will accept the ex (who is actually still the current as far as I know) to make Alina happy; Mariano tries to cheer him up, but it’s obvious he’s just as annoyed as Viewerville is. Berenice shows up and Ric asks her if she ever talks to Alina about her father. Well, here is a bit of information worthy of a 1.01 Psychology class: when asked to draw pictures of her family, Alina either paints herself with Tito, mom and dad, or Tito, mom and Abuela Paloma – never Abuela and dad in the same drawing. How about that for some psycho-analysis?

Jacqui just happens to be in the same place and she trips and falls in
front of the bar where the guys are chatting. They jump to her rescue and offer
to take her to a clinic that is not too far away.
From all the bars and all the streets in all of
Hermosillo she just happens to injure her ankle in front of the very people she
has to stay hidden from. Funny how that always happens in telenovelas. Labels: mentir
Mentir Para Vivir #89 Tue 2/11/14 Revenge is a Dish Best Served Cold by a Little Girl Wearing Pony Tails
Diner: Mariano and Ricky are having high tea as they
briefly discuss the Breton marriage dissolution problem. Ricky is upset that Oriana hasn’t been paying
attention to him. Job’s counselor, aka
Mariano suggests that Oriana may not be into Ricky anymore. Maybe after being with you, she’s turned
lesbian. He also suggests that Oriana
may not want to wait ten months or longer for Ricky’s divorce to be final. They are interrupted by Bereniece. Ricky asks Bereniece if she has spoken with
Rhodalina about visiting her father. Yes,
she did. She’s shares that Rhodalina has
been drawing pictures of a her father, mother, Tito and herself lately. BUT, if she draws a picture with Paloma in it,
the father is not included. Ricky asks
what that mean. Bereniece doesn’t know,
but she is going to discuss it with the shrink.
After the nurse leaves, Mariano is left alone to talk Ricky down from
the roof. They are interrupted by the
sight of Joaquina and her clown car hair falling on the sidewalk outside of the
restaurant. They rush out to assist her
up and escort her to Mariano’s free clinic so that he can examine her
ankle.

Que pobres tan ricos #27 Tues Feb 11, 2014 . Lupe stops Nepo and MA from trying to get to her soft spot through Emiliano. Adolfo gets home(MA and Saul see him with A-hole), Saul confronts him and he calls A-hole in panic. Mini has good news for A-hole.
Not sure where Monday ended up, I was out for the count sick on a couch and missed most of it.
MA, Lupe and Chuy have some argument about the house and the remaining balance... again! but MA won't spill the beans about how much the house is worth according to the last document.
Chuy swears to MA they will pay him the 300,000 pesos and that's it!!
Lupe and Chuy leave the room and MA starts nagging with himself about him having had the finances education and they don't know sh.... (oops! they were still just around the door and they heard him, and now they exchange the hand gesture of the number 3 ... funny it was... and MA's face of a puppy caught in the pantry was priceless)...
At Nepo's stand/store, Nepo again is using Gwendy as a relationship counselor... he keeps pessimistic about Lupe not giving him much attention and spending much time with MA. Gwendy says dont give up. MEanwhile the guy that works for Nepo is telling Nepo about some melons they had ordered that arrived. And Nepo is laughing because they turn the joke on Gwendy(relating the melons and her bust size)... seems Nepo is trying to hook these two together... Gwendy not amused by the commentary/joking around.
Back at Fonda, Chuy very excited about the posters he had made for the lucha libre event at the Fonda grand opening. In comes Tizoc with the flyers he had made about the band concert at the fonda Grand opening. Chuy begins pulling out the cards that he maintained the family with the wrestling and the wrestling 'holds' (llaves) feeding them all along. They can’t agree so they call Lupita to decide for them. She puts her foot down, since neither of you got me any certainty/assurance for your events, either you two get to an agreement or the fonda opening will have neither wrestling or music. Tizoc and Chuy keep putting pressure on Lupita, but she gets irritated and tells them ‘you two settle it!! don’t count on me!’ and leaves in a huff.
MA scares Saul again when he gets to his car. Anyway, after another anxiety attack from MA where he showed more from his AS genes than his grandpa genes talking down of the Menchaaaacas, he asks Saul if they can stop by Adolfo’s house again. This time they are lucky to catch Adolfo arriving home… and to top it off, A-hole also gets out of the car and they realize A-hole and Adolfo are far from ‘can’t stand each other’ status. (if they only occurred to pull out their phone camera… stupid duo). Instead of getting some evidence, they argue about what they have to do as next step…

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo, Capitulo 65. 02/10/14.
Joaquin spills the frijoles on JL's whereabouts. His poor baby girl is dying and once she
passes JL will inherit a grand fortune.
JL and Montse will then be able to enjoy all that money. Ale puts 2 and 2 together and comes up with 586
and concludes that this is the reason Montse sent him the divorce papers. Joaquin informs Ale that the law is no longer
looking for JL. Angelica's godmother is
the sister of the Captain of the marina and she was able to get all the charges
cleared. JL was re-instated in the
marina.
JL finds out from Angelica that Montse and Ale are no longer
together. Once Ale found out about him,
he threw her out. He no longer wants
anything to do with her. JL calls Ale an
idiot. He can't believe that Montse lied
to him. What do you mean she lied to you
questions Angelica. JL says Montse lied
that Ale found out about him and said that he forgave her. Angelica wonders when he spoke with
Montse. Months ago before we got married
lies JL. JL keeps going on and on about
Ale's behavior. He asks if Ale is going
to recognize his own son. Angelica says
Montse doubts he will. JL walks away and
mutters to himself if he only knew this all before. Angelica, one of the smart ones in the bunch,
finishes JL's thoughts and says you would have married her and taken care of
her and her son. JL apologizes. You have no idea how much it hurts me to know
that Montse is suffering. Why did she
marry him? You still love her a lot
replies Angelica. Perhaps it's best not
to answer that. I don't want you to
lie. Anyways I have always known you
love her. I'm just grateful that you
married me in spite of the love you have for her. JL says what he feels for her is different,
but just as intense.

Mentir Para Vivir #88 Mon 2/10/14 Marilooney gives it her all and ... fails
It has come to my attention that I recapped the wrong episode last night. Because I didn't watch Friday's show and have no clue about what is happening in this tn anymore, I didn't even realize I had skipped one episode. The Friday episode is numbered 88, so that's why I made the confusion.
Here is a brief recap of what has happeend (many thanks to Vivi, who added her piece of work, too)
And, in the meantime, enjoy this video some more. Seriously, EVERYONE stop what you're doing and WATCH THIS! (Televisa galans wish you a Happy Valentine's Day). This is what wet dreams are made of.
Ha, I guess I can write a long Preview for tonight's episode, but I've spoiled you enough already!
Again, I'm very sorry for the mix-up.
Here is a brief recap of what has happeend (many thanks to Vivi, who added her piece of work, too)
- Ric and Oriana break up again, because she is not willing to wait on his divorce - regardless of that, she will still be married
- Joaquin's daughter, Jacqui, finds out about her father's affairs from her mom, Rosa; she is shocked and upset, she wants to go to Mexico to set things straight, see what really happened; her mother warns her to be careful with Uncle Sam
- Rosa agrees to free JL from his position, especially since he still has the CD; Sam doesn't agree with this, he wants to kill 'hem all
- Maddy offends Cesar one more time, when he refuses to work for the real estate company; later with Ric and Piero, Cesar expresses his worry about his parents being involved in said business
- Homero is wondering what will Joaquin's widow and his eldest daughter will do now that he's dead; will they continue the family business? also, he's thinking about asking Ruben to snoop for him
- Ruben thinks Cesar should find out if Raquel's child is his and Cesar agrees
- Marilu sneaks into Rick's room while he's sleeping and dreaming about getting it on with Ori. She gets a few sleepy kisses out of him, until he wakes up, kicks her out, and runs to the shower to wash her cooties off. While he does that, she rips apart his desk and bookshelves and finds Ricky's gun. She fondled it, looking crazy, and takes it with her. (Vivi)
- Sam asks the bodyguard to kill JL; the bodyguard tells everything to JL and asks for his protection, but JL couldn't care less - he fires the guy
- Tony and some guy, Feliciano, talk about the way the real estate business will work: fake invoices, poor quality materials
- Maddy doesn't want to hire Seb, she screams at Tony, putting him in his place
- Fabi isn't feeling too great; Seb apologizes once again and asks her to marry him; she says no
- Oriana and JL meet; she tells him he can see Alina twice a day, but first they have to convince the girl that he's not evil (Good luck with that!)
And, in the meantime, enjoy this video some more. Seriously, EVERYONE stop what you're doing and WATCH THIS! (Televisa galans wish you a Happy Valentine's Day). This is what wet dreams are made of.
Ha, I guess I can write a long Preview for tonight's episode, but I've spoiled you enough already!
Again, I'm very sorry for the mix-up.

Que Pobres Tan Ricos #26- 2/10/14: What Will MA Do? Nepo and Guendy Have a Chisme Fest!
Hola Amiguis! This capitulo was very fast this evening including the dialogue. I did this recap mainly from memory so if I got something wrong please let me know.
It is Day 22 of MA being in the same suit. I took off a couple days because in the beginning he changed his suit quite often, before he went on the run that is. So I think it is Day 22 of the same suit.
MA and Saul are talking about the million dollars set aside for the Menchacas. MA really wants the Menchanca's house now. Saul tries to talk him down. Look what Don Chuy has done, not only for MA but his whole family. Saul says by trying to take this house away from them, by some nefarious means, and chucking them out in the street who's to say they won't turn around and turn him into the cops? Has he thought of that. Even Lupita, what about her? She's been so kind, along with her Papa! All MA can think about is getting back everything that was taken from him, his life in Londres, etc. Saul is the voice of reason, and MA clearly is not listening. Saul even asks MA if he is willing to sell the Menchaca down the river for his own benefit? Saul also mentioned that MA would be the villian of the piece. He wants things his own way. Talk about entitled!

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.
