Lo Que La Vida Me Robó, #111, 4-16-2014: The Grand Re-Opening of La Escondida; María discovers a new career; Nadia realizes she and Victor have been Pedro's private porn stars.
Dear Caray Caray Friends,
I had to do this one quickly today. There must be a million typos, but I think I got most of the major points and even some details. Let me know if I missed something important.
Best to you all! Enjoy!
Julia R.
Lo refrito: Captain Robledo tells Refugio he should be proud of Esmeralda's hard work and intelligence and also tells him he has a new lieutenant to report to; Esmeralda trains her new dancers while María looks on; Pedro has sent Nadia flowers to congratulate her on her pregnancy. This is not a good thing given the fact that this means he KNOWS about her pregnancy.
Naval Base, Agua Azul: ATTENTION CAPTAIN ROBLEDO: FRATERNIZATION ALERT!
Refugio meets his new boss, Lieutenant Rentería. He is surprised to discover that said boss is a woman, and she quickly upbraids him for his insolence and attitude. He apologizes and insists that he's not machista, it's just that he's not used to seeing many women in the naval base. She informs him that she worked hard to merit her position and earned it through discipline, bravery, but most of all intelligence. She wonders if he thinks intelligence and beauty are incompatible--and by the way, does HE think she's pretty? Does he ever--with all due respect, he adds. Finally, she dismisses him and tells him to wait for her in the office and help her with her work. She reminds him to salute her when he forgets, and he leaves, but afterwards she is smiling to herself, and it's clear these two have some serious chemistry.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #28- Wed 4/16
De que no es gay, no es gay
Diana breaks off the non-gay-non-cousin liplock, in case Alonso comes back. Alonso, hiding out in the broom closet with Alberto, is furious.

The "session" continues, but Alonso isn't kicking them out yet.
Lupita admits to her mom that she lied so good, the class wants her cop daddy to come to show-and-tell.
Cop Daddy is getting a promotion to head of Homicide. Ummm…Eleazar…please don't bring homicide stuff to show-and-tell!
Diego shows up just after Diana and Sexter leave, but he leaves without stopping to talk to Alonso and Alberto. Alonso calls him while he's in the car, but Diego is hell bent on confronting Diana about the pregnancy test. The Als are worried, thinking maybe Diego figured out the truth about Oliverio on his own.

Ahole at cloob… Chabela and Geno comment about his ‘accident’. He tries to deny deny… assures them Isela and Mini made up the story. The ladies won’t buy what he’s selling, and leave.
Lupe and Perla at kitchen in Fonda, Perla ruins the potatoes with too much adobo (seasoned salt). Mati offers to help. Lupe has Mati, Perla, Tizoc and Frida in kitchen, and they all look mighty busy. Chuy comes down, is heading out. Lupe sends him with some deliveries. MA and Nepo come in. MA announces that Nepo will pay for some medical tests Mati needs. Lupe thanks Nepo. Lupe looks very worried and MA notices it.
Later, at hospital or Dr office, MA thanks Nepo more in private. Nepo again brings up the Lupe deal. Nepo tells MA he appreciates Mati… and him(MA) too. Dr and Mati come out. Dr summons MA to his office.
At A-hole’s, Mini still is trying to open the door to get in closet. Isela says they still don’t remember the date of Aureliano’s death. Mini is cursing.

Isela keeps whining that she can’t live without a plastic card… without spending money!
At Fonda, everyone is trying to help out. Lupe is in kitchen and Perla and Tizoc are serving. Perla stops by AS, who is sitting at a table on her own… AS keeps suggesting to Perla to take the etiquette class… Perla tells her what she wants is to be a model… AS says then her class would be even more useful. Perla suggests instead of paying AS with money, what about discouting the class fee from their food tab.

Recapper note: Hot diggety, we've got some SMART people in this one. I almost wonder if Ms. Suarez needs a review of the TN "rules."
Skipping the refrito and right to the nuevo.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo, capitulo 109. 04/14/14.
So my 7 year old decided to stop recording my novela and instead record hers. I was able to record west coast time slot so recap will be up shortly. Although I'm afraid short.
Okay we start off with Dim realizing that his mom won't be nominated for mom of the year. She and Tomas were in kahoots to destroy his marriage to Fina. He decides to leave but mommy dearest begs him to stay. He agrees if she were to tear up the check. Afraid not replies the Graceless one. Dim says I'm out and leaves.
Tia Pru tries to convince her big bro Captain Robledo not to send JL to the big house. The Captain says no can do. JL committed a crime and has to pay. Depending on how generous the judge is, it looks like 5 to 6 years in the slammer.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #26- Mon 4/14
De que salió positivo, salió positivo
Tad has something medical going on that needs more testing.
Irene returns to the waiting room and signs the paperwork for Vicente's operation. She and Alonso go to get something to drink, followed closely by Karina. Diana is pissed that Diego doesn't seem to care how she's doing. Well, you're not the one going in for surgery. Plus, you did cause a scene earlier, so….
Irene runs into Tadeo, tells him about her dad, and almost gets away, but nooooo…Tad has to turn this into one more opportunity for a "talk." Irene actually agrees, unfortunately leaving Alonso with la chismosa de Karina, who's just dying to know everything that has nothing to do with her. She helpfully tells Diego that Irene went off with "a man her age," and then has the cheek to ask "So, who's this Tadeo Vargas, anyway?" Diego tells her it's none of her business.
Irene and Tadeo have a coffee. Tadeo brushes off his reason for being there with "Eh, you get to be a certain age and you just gotta make sure everything's working." Right. 'Cause all the guys I know are SO good about routine preventive care. Tadeo says all he wants at this point is for them to at least be able to say "hi" if they run into each other, maybe forget the past and start over. He's noticed that Irene seems happier and he's guessing that has something to do with Alonso. He says it without any jealousy and Irene practically blushes, cause, yeah, she may be "of a certain age" but that just means she knows a fine specimen of man when she sees one. I say that as a woman of a certain age. We know quality. Tad gives her his card and his digits and tells her to let him know if she needs anything. Then he takes off. And that's how The Tad Show ends for this season. Next season will be all about Tad's mysterious health issues.

Qué Pobres, Lunes 4/14/14 (#70): You'll Never Get Rich
I apologize; my Spanish is broken tonight and there were several scenes that sounded one way at first and then different when I replayed them... so there may be a lot of mistakes here.
Ahole offers Lupita a laughable sum for hitting her bike (which is AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT on Bingo Card #5, by the way, although in Ahole's mind it probably qualifies as sex... he did "bang" her, after all...). She tears up the money and throws it in his face (woo! more sex!).
Emiliano is calling for his mami. She tries not to react until Ahole drives away.
Vilma warns Saul that if he doesn't stop defending MA, he'll sink with him.
At home, Emiliano wants to know why Lupita was so angry with that man. He's not completely happy with her explanation that "he hit my bike," and she becomes impatient. He backs down, and she apologizes. It's just that he's never seen his mother so angry before.

Lo que la vida me robó, ep. 108, Friday, 4/11/14: Enemies
Dear Readers:
A version of this brief summary was originally posted with the comments to Thursday's recap.
Pedro steps out of the judge's office just long enough to tell Alejandro he must wait outside while his mother is being interrogated. "Why do you hate me so much?" Alejandro asks his tormentor. "Why are you so determined to do me harm?" Pedro's only reply is a smirk.
Pedro and the bent judge finish their brutal questioning of Rosario. Every question is an accusation. They try to get her to admit that Alejandro's father is really the late Jacinto and that Rosario was a slut who was sleeping with both Benjamín and Jacinto. She is forced to tell them her horrific history -- how Benjamín Almonte ripped away her innocence, killed her fiancé, and then had her accused of the crime; how she gave birth to Alejandro in prison a month and a half early and entrusted the baby to her father, and asked him to tell everyone she had died; how Padre Anselmo guessed the baby's parentage but didn't know that Rosario was alive until she had finished her 30 year prison term and appeared on his doorstep one night.

Weekend Discussion: Novelas en Ingles?
Is this a viable idea?
There were two unsuccessful attempts a few years ago to do English-language novelas by two of the smaller networks. They failed for two reasons:
1. Poor acting, possibly due to poor writing
2. Not ready for prime time in terms of gringo viewing habits

Que pobres tan ricos #69 Some revelations... Some direct accusations... Nepo's new associate... and Lupe's biggest secret might not be a secret anymore...
At penthouse MA sees the news report of Bambi on the tv and goes beserk when he makes the connection of Bambi on TV with the Bambi picture at Dona Queta’s stand. He starts moving crazy telling his family about Bambi. They don’t really understand what he is saying.
Lupita argues with Chuy, he won’t admit that Carm leaving was his fault, she did not respect AS & fam. Lupe rants at him that his asking Carm to stay behind and care for the RP was not right at all. Lupe won’t let Carmelita leave because of THAT WOMAN (AS).
MA and Saul in car, MA hopes police will catch Bambi soon, tells Saul about Bambi being Queta’s nephew. MA tells Saul he is thinking of using Bambi to take down A-hole. Saul says you are crazy if you trust Bambi, it would be like playing Russian roulette with a gun FULL of bullets. MA tells Saul he felt like being in a spy movie at his last meeting with Mini, even had to escape out the back door! If it wasn’t for Lupe… Saul asks MA what’s up with Lupita. Did you do the deed with her?? ‘Home-run at la Nopalera!!’ MA nags at him to not mock Lupe. Having no money does not mean MA can use Lupe. MA admits he is in love with Lupe. Have never felt before what he feels for her. Saul is in disbelief. MA calls him ‘insensible’. MA leave. Saul tells self ‘thanks for asking about MY issues! You worry about me so much!’
At her house, Dona Queta argues with Bambi about the news report she saw. Is he still doing #$)#$*?? Bambi denies still being involved in that stuff. She does not want to be dirtied in his pig pen lifestyle.
At market, MA arrives, asks Nepo AGAIN for his job back. Nepo AGAIN gives it back to him with not much resistance.
A-hole keeps looking at the photos of Lupita.. ‘more beautiful than ever’. Vilma comes in, she gets miffed at A-hole paying so much attention to Mrs Menchaaaaca. Vilma says she will find where Lupe is. A-hole says don’t bother.. I am soooo much smarter than you… all you have to do is investigate the licence tags of the motorbike. Vilma offers to go find out. A-hole says no, I will do it myself. Vilma insists in doing it only to get shoo-ed again by A-hole.
Now Tizoc is helping Lupe at Fonda. AS comes downstairs. Lupe immediately confronts her about Carm leaving. AS acts all the entitled ‘victim’. Carm, the ‘employee’, had an issue with her, not the other way around. Lupe says Carm is NO employee. They continue arguing about who knows the true meaning of ‘respect’.
At market, MA questions Trofeo about Dona Queta. Dona Queta comes in and gets to her stand and hides the framed photo of Bambi. Trofeo tells MA that in the news they are saying that the police is after Bambi because of money laundering. MA looks to Dona Queta’s spot, and is worried/concerned.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #25- Fri 4/11
De que lo atraparon, lo atraparon
The next morning, Alonso wakes up on the couch. Irene starts picking up some of the stuff she'd knocked around. She says she's feeling better, but she's sorry she wrecked his place. More hugs. She's apologetic, but Alonso says he's happy because she got through it. He agrees to let her clean up, since she says she's going to feel bad until she does.
Diego calls Natalia to tell her that Vicente is in the hospital and he won't be coming in to the office today. Diego gives her instructions about a folder that needs to go to the plant. Diana brings Diego a coffee and asks about Irene. Diego isn't sure she should be there, or what condition she's in. The doctor comes out to say the angioplasty is a go and takes Diego back to see Vicente.
Natalia worries about how Diego is doing and hopes Vicente gets better. As Karina walks in, Natalia tells her that Vicente is in the hospital. Karina calls Diana to see how she's doing.
Tiburcio goes to confession. He tells the padre someone's in the hospital and it's his fault. He backs up and tells the story about Irene and the baby…he was supposed to take the baby and give it away, but the girl figured it out and ran away….
Diego begs his unconscious Grumps not to leave him behind. "You're all I've got. Don't leave me!" Vicente mumbles behind his oxygen mask and passes out again.

Por Siempre Mi Amor #92-The Hypocritical Oath
I will do my best with this. I took some notes, but I'm still adjusting to the new DVR and remote and I accidentally deleted TONIGHT'S episode, so I can't go back and double check stuff. *sigh*

First off...
I looked up and perused both the Old Hippocratic Oath and the Modern Version. Then I even looked it up in Spanish. I'm pretty sure Dr. Dementa knows nothing about this oath. How does one graduate from medical school without knowing about this? I'm pretty sure that backstabbing counts as using a knife (see Old Oath.)
Let's see...how to put in words the things I saw tonight....
Isa is busted. Art is pithed. Marcela is outta there.
Feo destroys the tape recorder with his ugly clod-hopper shoes.
Marcela calls Art and wants to meet with him about some information she has. She shows the video to Art and Bruno. She throws a whole forest's worth of shade on Isa. Bruno really has his doubts. He can't imagine Gaby would be part of something like this. Art thinks the video doesn't lie. Art proceeds to get drunk. That's the way to problem solve, buddy.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo 107 - April 10, 2014 - Josefina Chooses Herself and Angelica Says Goodnight
Prologue
Read more »
How is it that we can become
so emotionally attached to a character in a television story that when the
character dies we are moved to actual tears?
I think it is because the component parts of our personal experiences—birth, joy, sorrow and loss, couplings, ceremonies and beginnings,
suffering, fear, triumph, divorce and heartbreak, sexuality, illness, old age
and death—are common to all human beings, regardless of culture. Together these experiences constitute our shared humanity. As we lose ourselves in a good story, the tale of a human life well lived, the
line between the stories we tell ourselves and those others relate to us becomes blurred. We feel loss at the death
of a beloved character in a television drama because we all know loss. It is terribly sad that everything is impermanent.
Josefina Chooses Herself
Dimitrio Mendoza, not-yet-reformed
scoundrel, stands high in the middle of Aguazul’s Plaza Mayor. Dramatically, he
declares his love for his wife.
“Josefina Valverde! Te amo!”
Dimitrio cries out in front
of the whole town. He loves Josefina in a way he never thought he could. He
begs her not to go but to stay, to be happy with him! He will love her forever.
Dimitrio jumps off his
precarious perch, runs to Josefina. He tenderly takes her face in his hands and
prepares to kiss her, but she stops him.
He wants to know does she
believe him? He loves her!
Josefina says, yes, she
believes that he loves her, but there is still something missing. Now, she
understands.

Que Pobres Tan Ricos #68: 4/10/14: Amor de Microbus!
Hola, Mis Peeps! I'm doing an on the fly recap again. Not too many details. I had some trouble with the convo between Frida and Mau and also some with Tizoc and his band. Please feel free to let me know what it is that I missed. I learn so much from Y'all : ) I am skipping the refried and getting right to the new.
Shall we begin with an earworm? I have selected one for Lupe from her past so to speak with Ahole, Love On A Two Way Street!
Vilma asks Ahole if maybe there wasn't a past ahem, woman he could have had a child with. I think he insults these women as low class and wouldn't want a child of theirs. He thinks about it for a hawt second and then decides, impossible, absurd! He is and I quote 100% sure that no such child exists.
Tizoc and Don Chuy are just about done cleaning up the kitchen from that fire. Don Chuy feels like a little man for the way he reacted to Carmelita. He looks like he's crying, but he tells Tizoc he's got something in his eye, yeah, right!
AS is at some salon complaining about the quality of their lotions, not like the ones in France or whereva when her former friends show up. They want to know why she is still in Mexico and not in Italia. AS claims it's for the wedding and the stuff she bought has to do with it, when they ask her of course. When is the wedding? Don't know yet, cause it depends on the Count and Countess, but will be sure to invite them.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #24- Thurs 4/10
De que no murió, no murió
CarLouse and The Shrimp hang out in front of the fonda while Louse reminisces about how Carmen's cooking was so awesome. If only he hadn't tried to use her as a drug mule and she hadn't gotten caught. The promise of empanadas is just too tempting for Shrimp and he tries to go in and get some…but he's stopped by the sight of Carmen in there with Eleazar and blames CarLouse for getting them caught in the first place. I have no idea what happened, but either Shrimp shoots his gun off by accident or Louse shoves him off their shared motorcycle on purpose. Shrimp ends up in the street and gets picked up by Eleazar and Morales. Looks like the gun did go off, as Louse ends up around the corner with a shot in his side.
Drunk!Irene goes over to Alonso's. And I'm glad it's Alonso's and not another hotel room with some creep. She decides now is the time to come on to him. Yeah, that's not awkward at all.
Carmen and Co. are worried about what it means that Louse and Shrimp were in the 'hood, but Eleazar says they should be safe and he won't rest until Carmen is cleared.

My name is Isabel De La Riva and I am married to Arturo De
La Riva, a so, so looking guy who is extremely jealous and not too bright. He was a widower with a young spoiled
daughter, named Aranza but I am not going discuss her too much at this time.
Art is an architect who works with his close friend, Bruno who secretly still
loves my pregnant best friend, Gaby, even though he is married to nice lady
from Spain, named Almudena. His mother Tita thinks that Bruno and Gaby passed some type of test but... They
just adopted a little boy, Uriel. Uriel lived with four other children in the hood with
Marianela, a simple pretty girl and a guy named Borlas. Bruno’s mom, Tita befriended Marianela,
Borlas and the kids while they were selling stuff on the street. Tit would feed the kids and eventually took
them in to live with her. She
built them an orphanage and all of the kids except for Uriel, live there and
are waiting to be adopted, perhaps by Almudena. Thanks to Tita, Marianela is
getting a good education at Tita’s alma mater. The uppity girls at the school tease Marianela and in order
to defend herself she slaps them around.
She always gets into trouble, its funny the uppity girls don’t. It’s probably because their uppity
Principal defends them. Well thank goodness; Don Gilberto came to his senses,
thanks to his new girlfriend, Agatha.
Don Gil went to visit Mari at school, it’s funny, the uppity Principal
said that a woman had come to the school to visit Mari. She lived abroad and didn’t have time
to stay and see her. Hmmm? Gil stayed and defended Mari. He even told the uppity Principal that
he was her grandfather and would make a donation to the school if Mari was not expelled. He was
able to talk to Mari and apologize for being so pigheaded and arrogant with her
in the past. She accepted his
apology.

Qué Pobres, Weds 4/9/14 (#67): After the Fire
- Nepo tells Gwendy that it's best if they don't see one another for a while. She bravely pretends to agree, but goes home distraught. Carmelita says that if Nepo needs to stay away from Gwendy, it's because he has feelings for her.
- Macarena calls. AS suggests moving up the wedding another month (or having it in a month) and asks Mac to have her parents send them the money to set it up. Mac says her parents are still in Siberia and won't have access to their bank accounts. AS agrees to go ahead and plan the wedding now and wait for Mac's parents to pay her back. Leo is nervous about this, but AS is sure she knows what's she's doing.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robó, #106, 4-9-2014: For Pedro, the best presents do not come in medium-sized shoe boxes; Nadia tells Victor the truth; DIM makes a very public announcement
Lo refrito #1: Gracie keeps harping at Carlotta, informing her (again) that she'll regret marrying Basurto, that Josefina has left DIM and that Adolfo is her lover, and that she (Carlotta) would do well to stay on her diet.

Put A Ring On It, Alfie!
Lo refrito # 2: Adolfo and Basurto are feeling the aftershocks of the murder of Padre Anselmo. Basurto is really angry about what happened, threatening to kill Adolfo with his own hands for creating such a problem and being such an imbecile. He can't believe Adolfo went rogue and didn't tell him about Pedro's plans to kill the Padre and then also maligned and implicated Basurto himself. Basurto claims he would have arranged things differently if he'd known, but it was too late. He wants to know what happened to Padre Anselmo's ring? They need it as proof to show Pedro.

An anguished, guilt-ridden Adolfo cries as Basurto wishes him good night and leaves him alone with the box o' body part.

De Que Te Quiero Te Quiero #23
De que pierde la dignidad, pierde la dignidad
(Alt title: De que perdió la lucha, perdió la lucha)
It's gonna be wham, bam, thank you ma'am and haphazard. Sorry I just couldn't seem to take notes fast enough tonight. :-(
Alonso advises Diego to postpone the divorce for now. He also tells Diego it's important for her to get help. She needs therapy. And in true novela form he also cautions Diego not to do anything that might upset the delicate flower that is Diana. Dr arrives and says Diana can leave that afternoon.
Nat tells GVB how grateful she is to Diego. She wants to do something for him. GVB thinks a nice gift from her stall.
Alonso arranges for his friend Alvaro (another Al?) to be Diana's therapist. Grumps doesn't think Diana needs therapy. He thinks she needs Diego to be a better husband. He blames Diego and says none of this would have happened if he had been a good husband. Diego says they'll will do what they can for Diana to get better, but he's getting a divorce. He tells Grumps he's postponing the divorce but come hell or high water "De que me divorcio, me divorcio."

Tuesday 4/8/2014---- Por Siempre Mi Amor Recap #89---- I have no idea anymore!
RECAP BY CORAZONSALVAJE:
-Oso is in bed with a grindguard and hilarity ensues. Tita must really not like that snoring but who would LOL.
-Zenaida (you know, she looks like Marianela, are you sure she isn't Mari's momma?) and Balthazar are like a slightly saturated version of Tita and Oso and she lays her charm on while Balto (never too late for nicknames) lays it off. Someone's a knockin' at the door and they both go to answer it. (Balto takes his job too seriously.)
-BonBon is heading to his colorful car (has it always been green? I thought it was yellow when he got the newspaper about Fernando's "death") and his stalker/predator is on the move watching him and filming him. Coincidentally, FeVer s headed to see 'Za who is sitting at a table alone and he asks her out to lunch. She declines because she is going to go see Tita's Casa Hogar. He then says he will accompany her to it!
-Balto and 'Naida escort the inspector to see Tita and she talks with her.
-Tita is up in happy flames because the casa hogar has passed inspection and the grand opening is soon to come!
-Illeana and DanHairyChest are in the vecindad when Mari is talking with Agatha about heartbreak and she denies any and Borlas comes. Mari leaves with Borlas and after asking, Agatha lets him know what he did wrong and he looks as if he regrets being the sacrificial lamb.
-Isa is talking with Gaby about how happy she is for Tita and that her dream finally came true! Some talk later and Isa mentions going on a trip and that FeVer and Marcela are coming to catch FeVer in the act. Gabs says she doesn't trust Marcela one bit. (This plan can only go so well...)
-BonBon's being stalked some more.
-The inspector is with the gang at La Casa Hogar and Dena tells her it's named Casa Hogar Adalberto. Everyone is giddy with glee!
-Illeana and Daniel are in the car and she says if it's a casa hogar he can see the kids whenever he wants! Danny then agrees and disagrees. (I just have to say this; Illeana isn't bad for liking Daniel. The only real fault is that no one wanted to tell Bronce Mari the ugly truth or that Daniel wouldn't listen to Soni when she was clearing up stuff at the wedding. So in a way, it's Danny's fault for not listening and almost everyone's fault for not telling her. The truth hurts but only as much as a booboo unlike a lie or hidden truth which is like a scar on the chest. Illeana only liked Danny and spared her feelings until it was no longer necessary. At least she isn't like Daffne who flaunts her good around town like a horny scoutmaster!)
-Tita comissions Borlas to work at La Casa Hogar but he can't abandon studies!
-Cuca is talking with Gil about how he feels for Agatha (her nickname shall be 'Tha and just for fun, should Cuca be 'Ca?)
-The Narvaez/Guttierrez clan is having breakfast and are happy about Tita's casa hogar.
-Gil goes to see 'Tha and she says she isn't ready (Well get ready Cinderella 'cause Gil Charming's takin' you out tonight!)
-'Za and FeVer are walking and he lets her know he is going on a trip and she asks to come. He says she will be bored (I'm pretty sure she will be ANYTHING but bored if it's the trip I'm thinking of.) Bottomline, she isn't going.
-Danny, 'Tha, Gil and Ill(eana) are eating out and happy together.
-At the Casa Hogar grand opening, everyone is in ot their own thing and happy. However in this novela euphoria doesn't last long and FeVer and Isa pull telepathically pull each other aside to exchange the address of the trip (Venue) The gears in Art Dad's head turn as he sees those two ealk off and wonders what's up.
-Oso is in bed with a grindguard and hilarity ensues. Tita must really not like that snoring but who would LOL.

(End-of-Capitulo)
Avances- About FeVer and Isa, Arturo ponders and over
the road of redemption Marcela wanders. (and FeVer's lips on Isa's head
wander as well LOL)
Author's Notes- I apologize for it being the second half of the
episode only but in a way it compensates for the other time I only had
the first half and my witty remarks make up maybe?Labels: siempre

Que pobres tan ricos #66, 08 April 2014... Fire at the Fonda!! at Chalma, MA and Lupe get hot and steamy too
Emi by pool asks MA if he would like to have wife and kids… MA says it would be really nice, but have to fix some issues of mine first.
At Fonda, Trofeo and Chilaquiles ask Frida what is there to eat. Leo is freaked out, says customers are bottomless barrels… AS says fix them some tortillas… Frida and Leo convince AS to cook something. She goes to kitchen but not leaving her bottle behind.
Lupe asks Emi to go back to room. MA and Lupe are by poolside. They have another cute argument. He says she has not given him a chance to admire her looks(she is in swimsuit). MA wants to invite her to eat some tacos.
Back at fonda, AS is drinking her martini while cutting potatoes (for Spanish tortilla?) Frida keeps waiting on customers. Leo comes in, says customers want to eat something heavier like panzita. AS is wabbling… she throws stuff on pot… they will love this delicious dish! (LOL!) Mati says see? When you make up your mind, you actually can do something productive. AS says she could care less about her comments, like a fly flew by. Leo says can’t help AS because it is super-complicated. AS says use your head. If anyone poor can use it, you, who have traveled so much should too.
At Chalma room, Chuy tells Nepo about his ‘beatings’ when he was a wrestler. This is nothing, compared to that. Nepo is thankful to them for their hospitality. Nepo lets Chuy use the truck to go back home to get some things.
At Fonda, Leo is having trouble lighting the stove. The room is filling with gas. Then he lites a match… drops it, lites another one and the whole stove goes up in flames… he tries to blow (LOL!) he calls for his mami… AS shouts ‘ay santa maddona!!’ Mati is not much help either blowing from where she is sitting.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #22- Tue 4/8
De que lo está manipulando, lo está manipulando
Alonso encourages Irene to back away from the booze. I assume she does, since next thing we know….
It's the next day. Vicente is calling Karina to give her instructions to follow while he's out of the office, including bringing him a bunch of files to review. He's saying it in this annoyingly patronizing tone and griping at Karina for not saying anything more than "yes, sir." He hangs up before she even finishes telling him she'll get it done. In the middle of carrying out his orders, she calls Diana to apologize and see if they can hook up when she goes by the house. Diana tells her to bring some sleeping pills if she ever wants to be besties again.
The judge changed Carmen's charges and she can now get out on bail, once Diego pays it.
Karina calls Alonso to pretend she has insomnia and needs a prescription for sleeping pills. He says he'll leave a prescription for her with his secretary. Oh nooooooo!

Por Siempre Mi Amor #88 US 4/7/14 Yes, He Thinks He's Sexxxy
And yet again we have been subjected to Uni's scissors. This episode was a combination of episodes 126 and 127 from Mexico. I watched the first episode online, but did not watch the second, so this recap will contain deleted scenes from the first episode. Deleted scenes are in italics... again.
Leftovers:
Arturo picks up Isabel's phone and reads the text. Where? When? He asks her, "Who sent this text? What does it mean?"
New stuff:
Isabel lies that the text is from her client in Monterrey who is very, well, direct. She assures Arturo he has nothing to be jealous of since the client is old, chubby and has a wart on his nose. And yes, that description fits Javier. She hugs and kisses and whispers sweet nothings to Arturo. He forgets the text and they head upstairs. Meanwhile at the penthouse Javier gets no answer and gets mad. Ha. Ha. The joke's on you old chubby warty nose!

Diego gets a call from Alberto--he's got good news.
Irene shops for art supplies.
Eleazar hands the luggage tags and info over to Alberto. Diego shows up and Alberto tells them that with this evidence, they can at least get Carmen out on bail. Eleazar ribs Diego about being in luuuuurve with Natalia and Diego ribs Eleazar about being in luuuuuuurve with Carmen.
Oh, great. Andres is back from sailing around the world. Remember Andres? The guy who put Rodrigo in a coma. Remember Rodrigo? The guy who's supposed to be Diego's twin, only we haven't seen him since Week 1?
Irene and Diego get to eat in peace, since Vicente and Diana are both being grumpy. When Irene mentions Vicente threatening to "turn in" Diana, Diego goes upstairs to confront her. He tells her that he saw the security videos, but she asks if he saw her face. She turns on the waterworks about how humiliating it is for him to think so badly of her. He tells her he remembers smelling her perfume and he's sure it was her who planted the drugs in Natalia's desk. She counters that he's BEEN cheating on her since he met Natalia, or he would have told her who she was.

Chapter
104: Blatant Lies and Dangerous Truths
Pedro
Medina's Office: The not so lordly mayor reminded the good
Father Anselmo he is the only person alive who knows of the suicide
note left by Lord Joaquin. The good priest acknowledged this with
some degree of discomfort and gave his apologies for having to
depart, as he had important matters to attend to in his parish. As
he was about to take his leave the unlordly mayor attempted to stop
him by saying he needed to remain in Aguazul for clarification of an
essential point. The good father said he would be leaving in the
morning, then accepted that his presence would be requested again.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo #103: 4/4/14: As She Lay Dying...................
Ahoy Amiguis! Those of us left on the Patio are shaking our heads and wondering que the hell is goin' on here. We seem to be stuck in a never ending wave of sadness, but have faith. There is a new disturbance in the force, going by the name of Sandho, but, but we still have El Capitan and now Dimi, so never fear the Underdogs are still here! Angie is slowly going into that long goodnight, but is still trying her best to fix things before she departs. Let me start with an earworm shall I? I really love this song and it so fits everything that JL and Angie have been through. So relax and listen as you read this recap. I have a couple more inserted into the recap, so please take a listen to them too. Long Live . Shall we begin?
Ale gets the news from Vic that Lic Cervera has gone to that big law office in the sky! Seems there was fire at his office and well, everything burned including the poor Lic. Ale is thrown for a loop.
Monse goes to visit Angie and runs into JL of course. Angie is still asleep and JL doesn't like to disturb her. Of course Monse has to rub salt into poor JL's wounds, that he is horrid, all that trumped up crap he did to Ale and oh, Angie doesn't know about you being drummed out of the Navy does she? Yeah, and she doesn't have to says JL. JL thinks maybe Monse is using Angie as an excuse to see him, oh, yeah, that's the ticket! She gets miffed by this and goes off.

Que Pobres Tan Ricos #64 The trip begins... and the wrestling event starts at all fronts. Carmelita vs AS and Leo, A-hole vs Mini and Isela, and the main event: a baker's dozen dance at Chalma.
A-hole wondering who that mystery man could be. Vilma reassures him they will find out.
MA tries to ‘explain’ to Nepo… a long story, kind of cumbuluted… Nepo says what I have is time. MA begins…
All begun when I returned to Mex, … without papers, … running from the ‘migra’ … I was the only one born in the USA… they told the ‘migra’ here that I was here. … then I had to find where to stay… Nepo offers help… MA passes… Nepo insists, seems he is offering MA a place to stay… Nepo then says we all could go to the Chalma tomorrow… you should put land between you and your problems… enjoy a vacation… MA smiles forcefully, seems it is settled…
Perla shows Chuy her swimsuit. He gets a bit miffed, says she would be more dressed with a lettuce leaf… you want to parade around Diego Armando with that on? You are a ‘damita’ and have to demand some respect… She keeps kidding around… Chuy says he has always taught Tizoc to respect women. She keeps mocking him. He gets more irritated and warns her you will not wear this, not even for Halloween (jk, he said ‘not even as a joke’).
A-hole is about to celebrate/toast to those two witches gone… Vilma reassures him that she will not let Mini keep anything of his… Door bells… Vilma yells for Oyuki to answer the door. A-hole says she is acting more and more like his mom in law.
Mini and Isela walk in with a guy in a suit… Mini warns him that ‘you pay for everything in this life’… The guy in suit announces to A-hole that Mini is suing him for spousal abuse.
Nepo and Trofeo show MA the spot he will sleep at (seems just a little step ahead of the cold attic floor, I thought Nepo’s house looked a little better. Is this his office at the fruteria?? MA is speechless at seeing his new president’s suite… his cell phone rings. As MA is on phone, Trofeo asks Nepo if it could be that MA is interested in ‘la prima’? Nepo wonders too. Nepo tells Trofeo that he is trying to get MA to trust him so MA will help him with ‘la prima’.

Nepo and Trofeo show MA the spot he will sleep at (seems just a little step ahead of the cold attic floor, I thought Nepo’s house looked a little better. Is this his office at the fruteria?? MA is speechless at seeing his new president’s suite… his cell phone rings. As MA is on phone, Trofeo asks Nepo if it could be that MA is interested in ‘la prima’? Nepo wonders too. Nepo tells Trofeo that he is trying to get MA to trust him so MA will help him with ‘la prima’.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #20- Fri 4/4
De que tiene urticaria, tiene urticaria
Eleazar visits Carmen in solitary. He lies that the kids are all fine and tells her she's safer there, away from The General, and that she needs to be careful with her. He asks her about the bags and Carmen remembers that the tags were still on them and she saved them.
Diego visits the "security" department at Caprico and asks for an incident report and the security videos. He's surprised to find Natalia in his office and they make googly eyes at each other while she puts him through to someone to return a call. Outside, a grumpy Karina arrives…late…and gets stalled further by yet another call from Diana. Grumps is pissed that Natalia is in the office and refuses to apologize to Natalia. She tries not to provoke him and tells Diego not to fight with him on her account, but well, Grumps needs no provocation. Diego gives Natalia work-related instructions that she probably both understands and will be able to carry out effectively. Out at Karina's empty desk, Vicente does a little mental math and decides Karina + Diana = Trouble. As Karina skids to a halt in front of her desk, Vicente summons her into his office. She's still frantically scratching her neck as he asks her when, exactly, she touched the baggies, because he never saw her. Of course, she can't give him a good answer. "Diana's the one who told you to plant the drugs, right?" Karina confesses they did it together, but it was Diana's idea. Vicente is furious because they could have gotten the company in trouble. He tells Karina she'd better not call Diana and warn her as he storms out of the office.

Por Siempre Mi Amor #87: 4/4/14
Cable was half-way behaving tonight! Woot!
I combined some conversations.
Isa tells Gaby about the "trato." Gaby is gobsmacked. Isa thinks this can buy them time and keep Ara from marrying a little longer. Gaby wonders how much time will it take and Isa tells her however long it takes until she supposedly falls in love and leaves her husband.
Sonia can't believe that Cuca doesn't work at that job anymore. It took a lot of effort to find her. Javier thinks Cuca probably went back to her pueblo and won't return. Sonia is disappointed by his less than helpful attitude.
Mari is leaving school and Borlas has come by to visit. Mari's classmates and headmistress make fun of Borlas the naco. Ally and Uriel come to pick up Mari and they invite Borlas to dinner. Looks like it's Naco Stew for dinner tonight!
The orphanage is almost finished. Tita is thrilled.

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo 102 - 4/3/14 - Stolen Kisses and Post-Wedding Conversations
Wedding Fiesta
Read more »
Nadia and Montserrat discuss her pregnancy. Montserrat
repeats the old wive's tale that Nadia is having a tough time with her pregnancy
because she is carrying a girl child. Nadia repeats that she cannot have this
baby.
The wedding reception for Esmeralda and Refugio is lovely.
In a sweet touch of ironic whimsy, Angelica has seated her mother at Esme’s
‘special work friends’ table. Amalia has already left behind her upper class
snobbery to embrace the good-hearted Esme, but now Angelica is putting her to
the test by seating her with a group of pole dancers. Much laughter is heard on
the Patio.
In another part of the garden, Adolfo-fito and Dimitrio sit
by themselves at a table trading barbed comments. Dimitrio thinks that it is
odd that Adolfo is here at the wedding with Virginia when she is Dimitrio’s ex
and she got hurt. Adolfo points out that that is nary a woman at the wedding
who has not been hurt by Dimitrio, starting with the bride. Adolfo asks where is Josefina—Is she hidden
from Dim’s Navy buddies because Dimitrio is embarrassed that he is married to a
woman like her? Dimitrio responds that he wonders if Adolfo ever gets tired
of…being Adolfo. With snarky jabs like those, I think we can safely say that
Dim and Addled are no longer a happy couple. They look like frenemies to me.
With Adolfo breaking bad and Dimitrio leaning good, well, those two are now
coming from very different places. Never the twain shall meet.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #19- Thu 4/3
De que fue una trampa, fue una trampa
Diego thinks Grumps planted the drugs and happily announces that since Natalia quit yesterday, the drugs can't be hers. Unfortunately, she didn't sign any paperwork, so Grumps isn't buying it. Diego is furious that Grumps won't back off.
Karina gives Diana a non-update, since she's too scared to listen at the door.
Tadeo is back in his lair, pondering how when he looks at Irene, it's like no time has passed. He's right. Marisol del Olmo is babesome and barely aging.
Diego, in his car, is trying to get hold of Natalia, but she's ignoring his calls as she tries to find another job. He gives up and tries the fonda, asking to speak to one of her brothers, but before Abdul can talk to him, Diego's cell battery dies.
Natalia gets arrested on the way to the job interview she JUST set up, damnit! Diego arrives and tries to tell the cops she didn't do it, but they say they have to take her in because a report has been made. Diego rushes back to his car to follow the cops.

Por Siempre Mi Amor #86-April 3, 2014-Este's Right Punch and Daphne's Wet Dream is Este's Nightmare
The deleted scenes are in blue- online episodes 122 and 123.
Isa and Ara are having a verbal
dispute about Javier and Ara and Javier getting married. What else is new? Isa
thought bubbles to her meeting with Javier about selling her apartment, which
ended in his word against hers, and he reminds Isa that Ara won't believe her
especially with the Gaby stunt.
Ara moved up the wedding to stop Isa from interfering and to have another reason to whine. Isa begs her not to marry Javier. She has endured 20 years of suffering as if in a spell under scum like Javier.
Daphne and Este discuss the wedding that wasn't. Este couldn't allow it. Daphne wants to know the truth, is he worried as a friend or does he still have feelings for her.
Javier is on the phone with Sucia about Fab. He hopes that Dan doesn't remember meeting him at the costume party. Sucia wants to see Javier but he is having a bad day!!!! Woohoo!! He didn't get married.
Daphne is still bitching about Este being involved with Ara and her life. She cries her crocodile tears and tries to guilt trip Este. She says that Este is dissing their relationship. Daphne tries to tell Este that Ara is marrying Javier for love and not to help her parents. Este doesn't believe that, and neither does Viewerville. Daphne is jealous, why, because he DOESN'T love her.

A super duper secret wedding: Lo Que La Vida Me Robo Episode 101 Wed. April 2.2014
Ohemcheese!It's a wedding, a super duper wedding! I'm glad to finally get an episode that's happy and peppy, we need the pep! I got off late from work and missed the first few minutes but here's what I did see:
Amalia and Angelic surprise Esmeralda with a wedding and an awful wedding gown, if someone tried to put me in that I'd be all like "naw homie, that's not happening" but that's just me, Esmeralda on the other hand LOVED the gown and was thrilled to have a last minute wedding, also something I would not be cool with, but mostly because I want an army of midgets at my wedding and that takes a lot of planning.

Qué Pobres, Weds 4/2/14 (#62): Vilma Plays Dress-Up in Mommy's Closet
Vilma will stay home with Ahole while Mini and Mom go out, allegedly for Mini's pre-birth counseling to prevent psychological birth trauma.
Saul visits MA at the market for rehash. He dIdn't find any more proof in the stuff Mini provided, but he has some people looking at Ahole's bank transfers to Adolfo.
MA says no, the papers for the house haven't shown up yet, and it's just as well because he'd be tempted to do a stupid thing and maybe that would be more trouble than he can handle right now. Saul teases MA for being in love. Nepo overhears and asks, who are you in love with? MA says he's in love with his job. He introduces Saul, who picks lint off of MA's shirt like a fussy spouse. "We're not that close," MA tells Nepo.
Mati asks how Emil did at his polo match (??) but it's not till next week. (I hope she's referring to the show-and-tell at school). He asks her about the wordy papers she swapped out with his drawings mixed together with Leo's. She reminds him not to tell anyone else about them, because those papers have magic powers. They can be good or bad depending on whose hands they fall into. They can even be dangerous. Certain things can change people and bring out their ugly side and turn love into hate. "Don't worry about them," she reassures Emil. "I put them somewhere no one will find them. They're like a treasure map!"

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #18- Wed 4/2
De que la odian, la odian!
Natalia, rather than just calling building security, decides to go check on Drunken Diego. At least she took Abdul with her…but only out to the street to get a taxi. Building security lets her in when she identifies herself…verbally!...as Diego's secretary. You call that "security"?! The same "security" guard lets himself get called away by a guy who says there's some dudes making graffitti on the side of the building so that Diana and Karina can sneak in and plant the coke. Which I kinda hope turns out to be baby powder or artificial sweetener.
Apparently, Eleazar likes to grocery shop when he's drunk. And take said groceries to Garcia Central Station. He's like the Santa Claus of cereal. Luz ends up coming over and gives him a hard time about being drunk in front of the kids. He keeps talking about the grocery run as a "mission" his mom sent him on. She makes him apologize for being drunk, but he accidentally lets out that Carmen's in solitary.

Por Siempre Mi Amor #84- April 1, 2014- Finally!! One Anvil Drops, At Least Three More To Go!
Recap by CorazonSalvaje:
Arturo and Marcela
talk on the couch and she says he's got a friend in her. After their talk is
over, she thought bubbles that she is going to do what it takes to steal him
back. Sonia has come to see 'Za and is re-assuring her about something when
Daffne comes down and mentions Arturo's possible conviction. She shows her
condolences.
Gonzalo is in jail
thought bubbling about whether he is going to need to sing like a canary (more
like jailbird) about FeVer and around comes the warden who says the less important
prisoner in cell block D has a visitor. Gonzo asks if they're sure it
isn't for him and warden says he is sure.
'Za and Isa are talking.
Gonzo is thought bubbling some more and
in come anvils'r'us with a knife and wood. It looks like one of the jail thugs
is whittling and some horrible things I can't make out occur (either Gonzo got
stabbed or double wood up the wazoo) Next thing you know, Gonzalo's dead
and covered in newspaper. (Now THAT'S an anvil!)
Dante is calling FeVer and letting him
know the doggone dark deed requested is done and Gonzo's dumb, dim and
dead as a doornail. FeVer lifts an imaginary brindis and they gloat over
victory #EleventyBillionTwentyFive.
'Drea and Mau get the news Gonzo's dead
and the bearer of bad news suspects it was planned. Mau concurs.

Que pobres tan ricos #61... If I had a penny for every time a leading lady or leading guy act stupidly after being on receiving end of stupid people's demeaning statements...
Repeat of Lupe turning down Nepo: not now, not tomorrow, not soon, not ever! (no ahorita, no despuesito, adelantito tampoco… nunca!) We are just not compatible. I won’t marry you.
Does that mean that you are breaking up with me, lupita?? (DUH!!!) Nepo claims the earlier proposal did not count because he did not have a ring at the time. She says it doesn’t matter. HE is depressed. She feels bad, says she and her whole family appreciate Nepo and his family. Nepo insists ‘if you care about me as I care about you, and you don’t really want to marry me, I understand… but… one condition…(gesturing tiny with his fingers) Nepo offers to run with the expenses of the trip. He will treat everyone to the trip and when they return, friends like always. (so he got his way, he is coming along for the trip, she leaves and he starts gesturing ‘Yes!!’ like he has a plan for the trip…)
Mati fixing MA up to go to work after he overslept. He asks Frida what time she got home. She nags that she is grown up already. MA seems to be irritated, but he claims he is just worried about her. Leo jumps up, whinning they won’t let him sleep. AS whines that this is just like the camote salesguy and tamale vendors waking her up with their scandal. Mati and MA and Frida all shout in chorus just like the street vendors just to annoy Leo and AS… (that was funny…)
Later Frida and Tizoc run into each other in the bathroom, he reminds her what happened last night, ‘amor eterno’ and all that… she seems to be depressed, more like wanting to forget.
Later on Tizoc runs into her again and asks her for another kiss… she is annoyed by the request, she claims it was fun last night, but she is not ready for compromise. HE is though. She says what happened last night should not have happened, and I am not a ho… He says he knows that, she is no ho, she is the ONLY one. Frida keeps backtracking… she only wants friendship. He says he gets it, she still considers him beneath her… She tries to say no that’s not it.
Later on, at work, Nepo and MA are talking about MA’s ideas for Nepo’s business… he only asked MA for a ‘proposal’. MA seems to have a complete business and marketing plan and this all goes over Nepo’s head. He just wants to get the business to go well. So now it is MA that is calling quits on the plan. (seems Nepo insisted in MA helping him with the Lupe issue, MA walks away protesting).
Perla talks to Tizoc, she wants to ‘defend him from Frida’… she leaves saying ‘leave it to me, I’ll fix it.’ He stays there worried…
MA continues counting the money and saying he will make a payment on what they owe the Menchacas… (wait, this is a repeat of the scene we saw last night)… Perla attacks Frida, grabs Frida by neck. Out come from different doors Tizoc and MA first, then the rest of the family. AS uses the opportunity of the chaos to steal some of the money from MA’s stack. Perla tells everyone Frida got involved with Tizoc… everyone has frozen faces… (this scene was totally repeated from the ending of last night).
At hospital seems A-hole is demanding he be released, the doctor says that is not a good idea, your friends Pepe and Tono could be impacted. Get used to the idea that you won’t be able to have intimacy with your wife for a good while. Vilma starts talking silly about transplant of those organs is no easy task. A-hole insists in leaving, Doctor hands him his release papers to sign.
AS questions Frida if she got involved with the ‘cumbanchero’… She nags at Frida that they all lost their dignity… MA notices the money in AS’ cleavage and takes it saying ‘seems the whole family lost some dignity! Right?’

Lo Que La Vida Me Robo, Capitulo 100. 04/01/14
Robledo informs Pedro that Ale will be released from prison. Pedro tries to show who has the bigger....avocados and starts yelling, but Robledo proves he has the bigger set. He can go over his head and call the Attorney General or even the President of the Republic. He reminds Pedro that he has a bigger pull with the government then little man Pedro.
Ale explains to his attorney that JL is taking the fall for the burning of the dirty money. The attorney thinks it's great but Ale is having a hard time swallowing his guilt. He doesn't like the fact that JL is being punished for something he did. The attorney reminds him to keep his mouth shut or else it would look like he was indeed involved in drug dealing. Ale knows and wants his attorney to personally represent JL in the criminal proceedings. I beg you to make sure that he doesn't end up in jail. Oh and don't tell him that I am footing the bill. Just charge him a small percentage to fool him. His attorney agrees, but can't assure him that JL won't spend anytime in the big house.
Rosy tells Padre that Ale is not upset with him for losing the letter. Montse comes in and brings good news. She spoke with Robledo and he believes Ale is innocent. He has seen a report where it details all the injustice that was committed against Ale. He also says that he will be opening up an investigation on Pedro. Padre wants to know if she told him about the letter that he lost. She says not to worry. It will be Maria who is brought in for questioning in regards to the letter. He is issuing an order now for her to present herself.
Ale also suspects that his cousin and her lawyer friend have been giving information to Pedro about him. His attorney agrees and thinks that Fabs is nothing but trouble. He also wants Ale's permission to investigate Sandro. Something just doesn't jive with him and his contacts in Miami can give him the scoop. Of course replies Ale.

Por Siempre Mi Amor # 83 US 3/31/14 Too Many Predators, Not Enough Prey.
Monday's episode was a combination of episodes 116 and 117 in Mexico. At this rate we should be caught up with and in sync with Mexico next Monday. I hope. As always, deleted scenes are in italics.
Leftovers:
Tita comforts Mari after the wedding incident that Mari herself caused. I don't get this. Mari attacked Ileana, Ileana was publicly humiliated, Dan was kicked out of the party and everyone sympathizes with Mari. Seems to me Mari's the one who acted like an idiot. Yes I know Mari's heart is broken, but that doesn't mean she should act like a 5-year old and everyone should feel sorry for her.

Qué Pobres, Lunes 3/31/14 (#60): His Windsong Stays on Her Mind
- Mini and Mom go to La Nopalera to inquire about MA. Lupita, Perla Ivette, and JT all deny knowing any Ruizpalacios, but Mini's keen sense of smell assures her that she's in the right place. She also thinks Lupita looks familiar, but dismisses the possibility that they've ever met. After she goes home, she calls MA and he swears up and down that he's in a very nice place that's nothing like la colonia. Mini doesn't believe him and tells Isela she'll be going back to La Nopalera tomorrow. Isela protests, remembering how the men on the street stared and whistled. "They were undressing me with their eyes!" Isela insists.
- Tato insinuates to Frida that, hypothetically, a really classy chick, maybe someone Frida would know, like maybe even the type of chick that Frida's brother MA was engaged to, could like him just the way he is and he wouldn't have to go marching in parades or handing blankets around to poor people just to impress her. Later it occurs to her that Tato must have been the person who revealed their location to Minerva.
