La Gata #37 10/21/14 La Molestia
Full disclosure: I'm in one of my cranky, kvetchy moods and this episode didn't help. What's with all the talking? And where the hell is Fela? Ugh.
The least important stuff
Looks like the writers will be working my nerves again tomorrow.
Previous: Episode 36
Next: Episode 38
The least important stuff
- Rita's suitor is still around, but Rita is getting discharged so...whatever.
- The Meatball is still around. I think he's teaming up with Garabato, but he brought his gang to the pizzaria and took advantage of Meatball. Yelling. Threats...whatever. (Meh. This should probably be filled under "Important"...whatever)
- Esme and Jarocha have a long conversation.
- Esme and El Silencioso have a long conversation. The MNs should be kissing the ground you walk on. Blah blah blah.
- Augie had another attack, but he's not dead. Dorila made him chamomile tea that tasted like arsenic. This was right after he said he wanted to hire a hit man and be done with FDLSC already. Dorila has a quick line about always staying quiet. Will this turn out to be important?
- Virginia visits Esme. She keeps calling her "cuñada." Kind of sweet.
- A beggar woman asks Pablo for some money. He obliges. She gives him an origami flower. He invites her to lunch and tells her his troubles. The actress is really familiar to me and it's driving me crazy trying to figure out where I've seen her before.
- Damian seems to have become El Silencio's goon/muscle. He beats that bald guy to a pulp and Pablo and Esme are there to hear the confession: Augie was the "brains" behind Operation Selfie.
- Mariano tells Lowrenza that Pablo knows everything about Operation Selfie. Lowrenza doesn't deny it. Mariano has some lines.
- El Silencioso and the lawyer Osorio have a long conversation. The MNs will NOT mess with his hija. Give them the offer they can't refuse-Publicly admit their guilt, accept Esme in their home and announce her engagement to Pablo. (PS: Augie can refuse it, but...Lowrenza? Maybe not)
- The Martinez Negretes seem to have forgotten the most important plot point: The household does indeed revolve around Pablo. That's why we're all in this mess! But tonight everyone is screaming and bleating about it always being Pablo, Pablo, Pablo! Augie says he's always been a headache.
- Pablo confronts Augie and they have lines. Lowrenza breaks up the fight and Augie leaves. Parallel scenes with Augie drinking and renouncing his son while Lowrenza asks Pablo if it will help if she and Augie accept Esme and his engagement to her. Well, of course it will help. Lowrenza says they'll do it....but asks Pablo not to say anything just yet. She asks him to wait until the day of the gathering to actually propose. I guess he agrees? Anyhoo...he heads to Esme's house and FINALLY gets to meet the babies!!
Looks like the writers will be working my nerves again tomorrow.

La Gata #36 Monday 10/20/14 Stranger Danger!
Hello my patio peeps! Here goes the recap:
I'm going and you can't stop me:
Miss Kitty and Silencioso have a show down, he forbids her to go see Pablo but she won't listen and takes off with Jarocha and the babies.
At the hospital Pablo meets with Monica, who is there because Mariano called her, why did Mariano call her? Because he hopes that Monica can work her charm on Pablo and keep him away from Esmeralda so that he (Mariano) can get a chance to woo her. Good luck with that little buddy. The long and short of their meeting comes down to this: Monica loves Pablo, but she knows he loves Kitty and what do these women see in Pablo? He's not smart, he's not charming, ok so he might be pretty but as my beloved Judge Judy would say "beauty fades, dumb is forever!."
Miss Kitty arrives at the hospital and finds Mariano there, he tells her Monica came to the hospital-spent the night there with Pablo and that the two left together, he also tells her that Pablo does not want to see the children until he is in a better financial position. Kitty is hurt and leaves with Jarocha, Mariano is left alone with his thoughts and the voices in his head tell him that he and his father are the same-his father stole 20 years of a mans life and he is trying to steal the love of a woman from his brother, hey at least he is self-aware!

Capitulo
66: Who Let the Dogs Out?
Lascuráin
Mansion: Fernando took Isabully aside and told her that there will
be grave consequences for what she and her mother did to Ana. He
didn't give her a chance to say anything in the way of denial and
made it clear that he will not have his father's wedding day spoiled.
He then called the chauffeur to get started. He assured his father
that all was well before he went into the car. Zerobela then
pretended to faint and told her mother that Fernando threatened her.
Alicia was incredulous.

Blogger/Recapper Update: Madelaine's Health
Caraymates,
I have been in touch with many of you over the last week as
I have gotten updates from Blogger Madelaine’s family about her health. Many of
you have asked if we shouldn’t share the news more widely on the blog, and so I
am using this space to do so now. Most of you know Madelaine as one of our most
energetic bloggers, recapping multiple telenovelas at a time, multiple times a
week. He recaps and comments are folksy and warm. Her ever-ready, perfectly
matched song/music selections are infectious. Over the last few weeks she has
been unusually absent from the blog, battling what she thought was a tough flu
bug.
Mads and her family now know that her fight is much greater
than that. Sadly, she is battling stage four lung cancer. I know most have you
have already been sending her prayers and well-wishes. I ask that you redouble
those, as Mads goes through radiation and chemo over the next few weeks. If you
would like to send her a letter/card/note directly, please e-mail me by
clicking on my avatar.
I hope you are all well out there.
Abrazos,
Vivi

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #45 10/17/14 Let's All Celebrate this (un)Happy Occasion!
Sofia descends the stairs in a dress I have no explanation for. Why is she wearing black at her own engagement party? This might be something Silvana would do out of grief over 'losing' Pato, but no, she's looking hot in bronze. Note to Sofia, if you dress in funeral colors at your own engagement party, maybe your subconscious is desperately trying to tell you something. Pato joins Sofia and everyone applauds as they come down the stairs.
 |
Besides being ugly, half of Sofia's dress is missing.

La Malqueria, capitulo 40.
Ale is outside Danilo's old business. I knew he still was running this shady business. Suddenly Olga comes out and recognizes her. She grabs Ale and says your the one that made us lose everything. Ale wonders what she means by that. Olga complains that she's a maid now. Ale thinks it's a better job than the one that she had before. But Olga is not in agreement. She has to clean up all the messes the drunks make at the end of the night. Voices are heard and the girls hide in a doorway. Olga tells Ale after she stole the merchandise, Danilo's boss found out and sent goons to kill him. Luckily all he escaped with was a disability. Danilo's former boss took away all his businesses. So what Danilo said is the truth questions Ale. Olga concludes that Ale has seen Danilo. Olga says Ale can confide in her and tell her everything. After Ale escaped, Danilo beat her up and left her in the street without a penny. All because I would help you. And Carlitos. Ale wants to know where they buried her brother.
Danilo tells German it's not that he doesn't want to give them Ale's old address. He called her old neighbors and no one has seen her but they will keep their eyes peeled for her. German doesn't care and still wants to go. Danilo tells German he knows he doesn't like him but believes that her old neighborhood would be the last place Ale would go. He knows her well. Esteban asks him why. Danilo says that her old stomping grounds was a horrible place. And it was also where her brother died. She had a hard time there and I helped her. She has no relatives there anymore. Luisa comes running in with photos of Ale. Danilo attempts to grab them but Esteban gets a hold of them first. He orders for copies to be made and put up in town. Acacia mentions also putting up a description of her along with her scar. Cris says she never knew anything about a scar. German says she was careful not to let anyone see it. Acacia wants to go and start making copies to distribute. Esteban sends her and Ulises on that mission. Esteban asks German if he knows anyplace Ale would frequent? Luisa thinks perhaps the church. Off she and German go to look for Ale.

La Gata #35 Fri 10/17/14 La Estupidez
With "La Terquedad" as a close second for title.
PART 1
The teacher in me seemed to think everything was an essay question. I did a little scene combining, too.
Is it really Pablow's fault? Why or Why not?
Virginia and Mariano lobby for Pablow. They try to convince Augie to make up with Pablo and let him back in the house. Augie is too wrapped up in the legal proceedings against him. No. Pablo is not coming back to the house. All he's done is slung mud on the family name and made enemies of the Elizaldes (Monica's parents.) They could have been great allies against Fernando de la Santa Cruz, but Pablow ruined that.
Is it nature or nurture? Choose a side and back up your argument with examples
El Silencio complains about Pablow shirking his parental responsibilities. He's a Martinez Negrete. That explains everything. Jarocha thinks El Silencio is just as stubborn as well, Esmeralda. This kind of pleases El Sil. Jarocha warns him that if he continues Esme will end up leaving the house. Jarocha reminds him that she and Esme know abject misery and they know how to survive. Sure things are nice at his house, but Esme would have no problem leaving if El Sil doesn't slow his roll. El Sil thinks he couldn't bear losing his child again. His whole reason for venganza would be gone if he lost Esme.

Parte 1~~
• Once the kids explain to Don Fernando all the nasty names Isabela called Sebastian and why, and once he hears that she actually pushed Seb down so that he fell on the floor, he sees red and races off towards their bedroom in search of his wife. “—How dare you insult my kids, put yourself in their mother’s place, not to mention throw Seb, pushing him so he’d fall to the floor!??” Isabruja lies that Seb is making things up to separate her from DF. He almost believed it, he tells her but not now after this. “—And, you are so far from being able to take their mother’s place!

La Gata #34 Thurs 10-16-14 Fallout from the Non-Wedding
RECAP BY LA PALOMA RECAP BY LA PALOMA RECAP BY LA PALOMA
Previously
The lovely Monica calls on La Gata, telling her God and Pablo punished her and humiliated her like never before. The love Esme and Pablo share is stronger than the hate and they must pursue that love. “Thanks for listening,” the shunned bride concludes. “God bless you and forgive me.”
The Dance of Love Continues
One can only suppose that Sra. LaToodle wants us to feel renewed with clean and almost comely Rita as a love object. The IV man appears in her room again, claiming that he is her clown and she is his circus. (His glasses are a little thick—maybe he doesn’t see so well.) She says if she could get out of bed, she’d beat him. The nurse comes to chase him off, saying he proposed marriage to the lady in room 14. So he roams the halls, preying on women.
Gata gazes from her window, asking the universe for Pablo’s location. No answer.
Pablo explains his mural to a group of gentlemen, proposing animals for the outdoor setting—cats in particular. He rhapsodizes to himself that he’ll immortalize his love for Gata, work through the pain he caused, and save money for his kittens—uhm, his children.

Hasta el Fin del Mundo #44 20141016 A Tale of Three Dumb Daughters and the Mother who Spawned Them
So anyway, Greta is upset that her daughter lost her
virginity, but Fausto encourages her to talk to Dani about it. Times have changed, says the man that has no children. Girls sleep around all the time
now. Encourage your high-school drop-out daughter to be loose. Whatever.
Greta takes Fausto’s advice and
listens as her ditsy daughter blather on. Greta gives
Dani the “sex talk” and advises her to be monogamous. Dani assures her that she and her boyfriend
love one another and that they used protection.
Dani asks how Greta felt when she had sex with Octavio because all
teenagers want to know about their parents having sex. I know I did. Yuck! Greta remembers her first time with Paco and
Sophia’s subsequent birth. Greta wants to meet the boy, but Dani says not yet. Dani hugs her mother;
they’ve bonded over the sex talk.
Across town, Lucas tells his Miguelina, his grandmother,
that he and his girlfriend are in love.
Luckily, he doesn’t subject her to the sex talk. She tells him that turning his life around
has rewarded him with love. He tells her
that she is his biggest joy. She has
been both mother and father to him.

La Malquerida #39, 10/16/2014: He Should Have Given Her Pants
Mexico Episode #44
Read more »
-German tells Ulises all about his terrible, horrible, no
good, very bad day. Ulises is sure that German can fix things with Alejandra—just
look at him and Acacia! He invites German to live with him—rent free, until he
finds another job or sells some of his paintings. German doesn’t want to be a
bother or a moocher, and doesn’t want to cause any discomfort since Manuel and
Uli don’t get along anymore. Uli insists, but warns that for the next few days,
Arturo will also be staying with them. (Hey, maybe they’ll have a pajama party,
like the girls…except they should be shirtless!) They realize they are both headed
to Benavente that evening—Uli to give Acacia a driving lesson, and German to
speak with Cristina.
-Ale is on the road, trying to hitchhike with no luck. It’s
hot and dusty, and she didn’t bring water with her. She sees a roadside truck
advertising freshly squeezed juice and goes up to the man and woman running it.
Unfortunately, they have just wrapped up, have no more juice left, and are
packing up the truck. They take pity on Ale and offer her an orange. She sits
by the side of the road in front of their truck, gratefully sucking on the
orange, and thinking about what to do next.
-Danilo happens to be driving by and gets a call from
Norberto. The signal is crappy, so he stops and gets out of the car, right
across the road from Ale! The writers have fun toying with us, as both Dan and
Ale have their backs turned to each other while he talks on the phone. Norbie
informs Dan that he has to rehire Ale and German because Esteban is the boss
and he says it has to be done. Dan agrees to it since Este is so influential,
and they need his support. He hangs up, finally turns around, and squints hard
at what he sees across the road. Viewerville has a mini heart attack! But all
Dan sees is the truck and their sign about fresh juices. The couple has offered
Ale a ride to San Jacinto and she’s hidden away in the back with the produce.
Dan drives off in one direction, they drive off in the other.

Hola Reinamaniacs!! There's some fun stuff going on on our favorite novela BUT the curse of the Red Diamonds has taken effect - both NovelaMaven and I are going to be unavailable all or most of next week. Mauricio has kindly agreed to do NovelaMaven's Tuesday recap and NovelaMaven believes that she can do Thursday. That leaves Wednesday. If anyone could volunteer to recap Wednesday's episode, that would be awesome. Witty headings are completely optional and the recap can be short and sweet. If you've never done one, this is your big chance. It's really fun. Thanks in advance.

Pablo tells Mariano maybe he could offer Gata the life he couldn’t. Then, he gives up and tells his baffled bro to take him to the church.
The Wedding of the Year
A throng of people flaunt their festive attire on the church steps. A group of girls in bright aqua could be bridesmaids, while the bride’s mother wears red and groom’s mother orange-red. The fathers have switched from sporting wear to business suits. Don’t hold your breath for a wedding with every detail—we seem to hit only the high spots here.

Mexico Episode 43
Read more »
-Esteban throws Norberto around the office and manages to
give him a good gut punch before Cris breaks it up and yells at them both to
calm down. She still refuses to back down on supporting German. Esteban tells
her to leave the office, in a way that tells her she better do it. Norbie
gulps, but luckily for him Esteban has calmed down enough to make his point
with words, and not with fists. Norbie will never raise his hand to Esteban’s
mujer again!
-Esteban can’t believe Norbie fired German and Alejandra.
The Association meeting is coming up in a couple of days. Panicked growers are
calling wondering if the meeting’s been cancelled. Esteban is the President,
and HE makes the decisions! He’s also the one who does all the public
relations, while German runs the operations, and Ale does all the
administration (it’s clear that Norbie does nothing). Norbie admits that German
was even going to write his speech for him. He seems to give in to Este’s order
to hire back German and Ale.

Quiero Amarte Discussion Space (Week 4 - October 13-17)
La Malquerida #37, 10/14/2014
Amigos- I'm running to an early meeting, and I'm not sure if Gloria was able to do a recap last night. If she does, I'll post it here later.
Last night:
-German did NOT get stabbbed! He takes the knife from Norberto, packs up his remaining paintings, clothes, and the car he bought with the money HE made at the Association (paid by Esteban), because Norberto never paid him for any of his work, and leaves with his dignity...to spend the night at the hospital with his brother. WORST DAY EVER!
-Norberto slimes all over Juliana, she rejects him, he says she'll come crawling to him when she needs money, he pays a visit to Julianita.
-Julianita gets roughed up by Danilo when she dares to dream about becoming the next Mrs. Norberto and leaving this life behind. He reminds her that she belongs to him.
-Dan calls Ale to make sure she dumped German and told him the lie about her dad sexually abusing her.
-Ale seems to be ready to fly the coop and leave her good man and new family behind.
-Both Juliana and Perla sign contracts on A2. Nuria lies to Ulises that she sold Juliana another space.
-Juliana and Manual try to convince German to give up his art so that Norbie will accept him back into the family. He won't budge.
-Acacia and Cris return home. Esteban seems determined to distance himself from Acacia. She's all over him seeking his approval for her reconciliation with Uli, and trying to get him to teach her some horse riding tricks/skills. He refuses the lessons saying he'll be too busy. She pouts and touches him too much.
-Cris returns the letter to Luisa. She's heartbroken but seems to accept that Manuel is not for her. She says Arturo is just a friend when both Cris and Acacia point out that he's a great catch and they think he likes her.
-Rosa has agreed to help Art and Luisa with their upcoming event. They're going to cook in Uli's little house. Art is totally going for it with Luisa. Uli approves.
-Norberto brings the full hospital bill to Cris and Este, and wants it all right now, so that Manuel can be released from the hospital today. Este thought the plan was for Norberto to pay and for them to pay him in installments. Norberto knows they don't currently have that liquidity with all the debts they've had to pay recently. Norbie doesn't care. AND he demands that Cris remove her support of German for the art show. Cris refuses. Este demands that Norb apologize to Cris for getting brusque with her in the hospital the other day. Norbie hesitates and makes the mistake of admitting that he actually raised his hands to Cris. Este loses it! He pins Norb against the wall and asks how dare he raise his hands to his wife!

Hasta el Fin del Mundo #42 20141014 Dude, Your Mom is Smokin' Hot and I'm Feeling Light and Frisky
OK Coral: Dani and Lucas go horseback riding. They make-out everywhere. The only thing that we learn from them is
that Dani is a virgin and that Lucas will wait until she’s ready to have sex. Their scenes were uneventful and were
only useful for catching up on my notes on the other scene.
Snob Hill: Aurora runs into the kitchen and tells
the family that Allan has arrived, but unfortunately he’s been beaten only within an
inch of his life. Greta calls a doctor.
(Alexa’s Bedroom) Alan explains to Greta, Fausto and Alexa
that he was out scouting movie sets when he resisted a robbery attempt. After
Greta and Fausto leave, Alan tells Alexa that Manolo and his thugs beat
him. They are still in danger and have
to leave town immediately! Alexa says
leaving town won’t cancel their debt.

Mi Corazon Es tuyo #62 Martes 14 Oct 2014 Hey Brujas!! how low can you go??
Refritos:
Fernando starts the breakfast flour food fight in the kitchen with the kids and Brianna… Brianna asks Alicia why he changed, Alicia comments that Ana had to do with it. He dumps the whole bowl of dry flour on Alicia’s head… she shakes it off…
That sounds like a really fun kitchen to be in…
Fanny and Laura arrive to visit Ximena, at first she is angry but when she finds out it is them she is really happy… (bipolar for sure!)
Leon and Reina the tricolor hair girl with Mau at the birthday.. he is depressed about Fanny. She confesses her feelings to Leon and kisses him.
Diego with Ana climbing rocks out in the woods somewhere… Ana asks him to give her some TLC… he helps her to the top of the rock, she yells for him to grab her, he grabs her alright and plants a smooch on her for good measure.
Lo Nuevo:
Ana gets a bit fearful, she does not want to drop down the rock on the rope… she starts praying… he asks for a kiss, she offers a slap instead. But she does go down alongside him. He teaches her as they go. Where did you learn to do this? The Himalayas. And then he mentions that a friend did not go down the ‘healthy/safe’ way. Then he metaphors about how people deal with their problems. ‘why di you jump like a toad?’ then she lets go and falls… he yells her name. he comes down. She’s alright. (is anyone getting the déjà-vu from the beginning of Refugio? Phew! Not the same outcome… thank goodness)
Diego cracks up laughing, she is not very appreciative of that. She yells at him to get her down already!
The girls ask Ximena ‘when are you going to leave here?’ ‘ when I stop being dangerous for others’. Seems Ximena has learned a few lessons, like money is not everything. Fanny asks if the meds are working. Ximena does not want to talk about that. Ximena changes subject, how about Leon? Now it is Fanny who does not want to talk about it. What about Reeky? Didn’t you dance with him? Yes but Equis! He is my boss and as old as my dad.. Hello!
Diego asks Ana if she thinks he would have invited her without it being safe. He keeps insisting with the I love yous. With me you will always be safe. She is starting to like this relationship better, gets more into the kisses.
Leon did not appreciate Reina’s kiss. He is totally clueless… Reina gets a bit flustered at his reacting like a teenage virgin kid. Do you need a dictionary? I like you very much. Since we were about 12. Leon breaks the convo up by telling Mau we are leaving.
Laura and Fanny tell Ximena they are worried about her. But seems Laura is not so much, ‘I have a life too, you know?’ Fanny looks at Laura like not approving where this convo is heading now.
At the house, Luz, the boys and Fernando are in ‘battle’ disguise with bandanas and face color to have a water gun battle. They sprinkle all over Alicia and Brianna who are sunbathing. Nando is reading a Stephen Hawking book. He is not into it but waves to Brianna when she calls him.
In the house, YoMama and Isa have discovered the post-hurricane kitchen. They are sickened. Isa tells YoMama Fernando gave the day off to all the staff. YoMama asks her if she will go see Reeky. Isa says he is the only one that will even notice her. Isa tells YoMama to clean (LOL!!!). YoMama finds a pancake whole enough to eat… she blows the dry flour off it (LOL! Must be desperately hungry)

La Gata #32 Tues 10/14/14 La Pesadilla
Alternate title: "AAAAARGH! He was so close to seeing Fela!!!"
It's another recap from memory. It's out of order. Please let me know what I forget and I can go back and add it.
Ines is out of jail (I assume on bail) and goes to see Rita in the hospital. She is repentant and asks Rita to forgive her. Rita does and assumes this contrite behavior means that Ines and Garabato have broken up. Ines informs her that that is not the case.

La Gata #31 Mon 10/13/14 If you're stupid and you know it clap your hands!
I'm working on the recap (no internet at home so I'm having to recap the morning after the show airs and I'm on the West Coast, sorry peeps!), feel free to discuss the episode in the mean time!
Recap done!
The truth comes out:
Jarocha shows Pablo the video Rita made where she tells him that she along with his parents worked to keep him and Esmeralda apart and he finally learns that the babies are his. Jarocha asks him what he plans to do now that he knows the truth and poor spineless Monica wants to know if this new revelation means the wedding is off (dude, someone buy this girl some self respect!). Pablo tells her he has to speak with Esmeralda and runs across the street to confront his old love.
Pablo and Esmeralda are now face to face, he tells her that he knows the truth and then he makes the mortal mistake of asking Esmeralda if the kids are his. Esmeralda tells him that the fact he knows the truth changes nothing, what does he expect her to do? Drop everything and run back to him? Naw homie, that's not going to happen, because she explains, their problems are theirs alone, and it was not his parents and the lies that tore them apart, it was lack of trust, and she once told him he would regret the unkind words he had about the babies, he should be satisfied to know that the kids are hers and she's enough for them.

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #41 10/13/14 Broken Faces and Broken Hearts
This was a packed episode, lots of serious things going on as our story kicks into high gear. Sorry, I just couldn't think of snarky captions for the pictures.
From Friday:
After the dance show, Lupe' asks Paco if Sofia is more like her mother than her father.
Chava and Sofia talk before she goes home.
Alexa tries to call Alan but he doesn't answer.
Manolo's thugs punch and kick Alan.
New:
Now that all her daughters have gone out for the evening Greta realizes how big and empty the house feels. Fausto tell her she's experiencing empty nest syndrome. It was bound to happen sooner or later. As if in answer to her mother's sadness, Sofia comes through the front door. It's been a hard day. The workers were able to handle a crisis and now Pato and Silvana are finishing up at the factory. Greta notices a spot on Sofia's blouse. Sofia says she spilled a little of the tostado de pata she ate at Cuco's Place. "Tostado de Pata!??" Greta wrinkles her nose and waves her hand in disdain. Sofia tells them it was delicious! But she's had a hard day and now it's off to bed. Sofia runs upstairs. Greta wonders about the change in her daughter. Fausto thinks it's good for Sofia to try new things and have new and different experiences before she gets tied down to Pato.

La Malquerida, capitulo 36. 10/13/14.
Skipping the old.....
we're back at the fight and German aka big sexy questions Danilo on why he has possession of Ale's ring. Danilo says German has no right questioning him since he and Ale are no longer together. If he is in possession of it, it is because she gave it to him.
Esteban angrily walks towards Acacia and Ulises, then decides to slow his roll. He calls out her name and says he thought she no longer wanted to see Ulises. Acacia says they talked and worked it out. After all a girl can change her mind. Esteban says if she wants to believe Ulises, then he has nothing more to say and starts to leave. Ulises calls him back. He reiterates that what he told Acacia was the truth and he will demonstrate it. Esteban says he just needs to prove himself to her. If this is what she wants, he will respect her decision. If he breaks your heart again, I will be the first to be there for you.
German aka big sexy doesn't believe that Ale would give Danilo the ring. She never took it off. Danilo says he was the one that pulled her out of the hell hole she was in. (Ummm..not exactly as I remember. I believe you were the one who put her in hell, dipsh!t). so you know who abused her says German and starts fighting again with Danilo. Norberto runs up and breaks the fight. Norberto tells Danilo that he doesn't have to explain anything to German about his business. He no longer works for me or lives in my house. Danilo tells Norberto not to worry about it. They were having a discussion on his breakup with Ale. He's also jealous in my relationship with Ale. Do you think it's nothing replies German. I love Ale. Norberto says it's best they break up. That girl was a bad influence in German's life. German doesn't agree. He will always be grateful that she supported him. He walks off. Norberto says he was worried that German found out about Danilo's other business. Danilo assures him he will never tell anyone that Norberto visits one of his girls. I'm glad that you don't want Ale for your son. I want her for myself.

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #40 10/10/4 Plots, Parties and Punches
Greta talks to Alan privately. Alan claims he knew nothing about Alexa taking the necklace and pawning it. Though they are a couple Alexa doesn't tell him everything. He offers to contact his family and get the money to buy the necklace back. Greta refuses his offer. She just wants Alan to keep taking care of Alexa the way he has been. The Ripoll family will get the necklace back and give Alexa money so she and Alan can go back to Spain. Greta even offers to send financial support to Alan whenever he needs it. (I have to ask: What evil creature snuck into Greta's bedroom at night and sucked out all her brains? If Pato doesn't bankrupt the Ripoll's, Alan will.)
At the factory Sofia is on the phone trying to work out a deal with Ripoll's northern distributor, Mr. Armendarez, to replace the shipment of chocolate that was lost in the truck accident. Sofia tells him they can replace the shipment in a few days, but not overnight. Amendarez gets angry and abruptly hangs up on her. Sofia can't believe it! Pato tells Sofia that she's under too much stress. Isn't it time for her to let him handle things? He'll take over for now and she can plan their wedding.

Oh No, Bro'! Say It Ain't Sooooooo!!!!!!!
Cap. 60
Our worst nightmares have become reality if this be truth.....
Lo Del Nuevo:
• Johnny’s walking the streets on his way to the bus stop, mooning over losing Jennifer to Don Nicolas--like he ever had her to begin with….. Moon-Boy trips over a stand up cardboard cutout of some famous model/actress and now falls in love with her. (Is this guy certifiable or what??? What idiot falls in love with a cardboard cutout? Only the kind of clown with scrambled sk!t for brains—the Televisa kind.)
• Ana gives Diego her reasons for believing Yo Momma is her momma: the rare song Yo was croaking; the fact she wears cherry red nail polish; her being from Ecatapec where they believe Ana is also from—despite it having a population of a million or more people, as Diego is quick to remind her; her having had another daughter prior to Isabela; and the fact that Yolo plays the guitar. (Works for me!)
• Luz breaks in on the convo and Ana’s reminded that they all have to get ready for the quinceañera blowout right away. Once Ana and Luz leave the room, Diego calls up the new investigation officer for Ana’s case and gives her the lead on Yo-low.

La Malqurida, capitulo 35. 10/10/14
Skipping the old.........
Rubio asks Ale is she is going to work today. She pretty much tells him to mind his own and Rosa backs her up. Luisa tells him to go back to work. Rubio comments that all the women have attitudes today. Rosa asks him to accompany her to her room. She needs help with something and drags him by the ear when he protests. Ale asks Luisa what's with the 20 questions from Rubio? Luisa doesn't know either. He even asked her what time German left last night. But she didn't tell him. The girls share a giggle on German's escape from the window. Luisa gets a call and it's Arturo.
Manuel tells German aka big sexy about his new business idea and how Norberto is backing him up. He even talked to Norberto about his painting. Manuel wants to know if German found out why Ale broke up with him. German has a smile on his face and says they are back together. The reconciliation was the best thing that could have happened to him. Ale demonstrated just how much she loves me. We made love with such passion that it surprised me. I always thought something really bad happened to her. You still think she was abused asks Manuel. I believe that more and more lately replies German. But she doesn't want to tell me. I am in love with her and don't know much about her. I know nothing about her past or her family. The only thing she has ever told me was about her little brother that died. It must be terrible to lose a brother says Manuel. But after everything that happened she must tell you about herself. You have every right to know since you are together. Ask her to be honest with you. Especially since it is you who would understand anything.

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #39 Pato's Plans Starts in Motion
Our dear Mads is under the weather. So here is a quick and dirty recap from memory of Thursday night's episode:
Alexa cries to Armie that Sofia and Greta are giving her the money to go back to Spain, but she really doesn't want to go. Armie tells her to be honest with her family, they will understand. Alexa says she doesn't have the courage to do that.
Silvana's jealousy gets the best of her and she confronts Patricio in his office. She's in love with him and can't stand to see him in the arms of Sofia Ripoll. Sofia walks in to see Silvana crying but not soon enough to hear why. She takes Silvana away to talk privately. Pato sits at his desk planning damage control.
Dani and Lucas sneak away and have a make out session in the warehouse of the factory. Marisol tracks Lucas down and interrupts the kissing and heavy breathing to offer him some of the cornbread she made. (Girl, it's gonna take more than cornbread. Just sayin'...)
Silvana lies to Sofia. Silvana says she just found out the man she's in love with is engaged. She was talking to Pato about personnel issues and noticed one of the factory workers has a name similar to her (fake) boyfriend's and that's what caused the emotional outburst. Sofia buys it.
Pato talks to Tavares at the police station. It seems that Pato's fingerprints were found all over that stolen money. Tavares asks Pato if he'd like to change his story? Of course he would! And he does. Chava is now off the hook.
Paco re-opens his shop against the wishes of Araceli. He's tired of sitting at home and needs to be active. Araceli warns him to be careful.
Chava takes a walk and runs into Araceli. He confesses there is a woman who is always on his mind. Araceli guesses that it's Ceci, but Chava tells her the woman consuming all his waking and dreaming moments is Sofia Ripoll. Araceli can't understand why warm, passionate Chava would be drawn to a cold android like Sofia.
Patricio tells Sofia that he put in a few good words with Tavares and the all charges and suspicions against Chava have been dropped.
Irma can't get in to see her sick "friend" because he's been taken in for medical tests. She'll have to wait until morning. Irma wants to go home now, but Martina says if Irma leaves she'll go to Armando and show him the unique mole on her back - the one that both she and her brother have - that matches the mole on Nandito's back. And she will tell Armie that Nandito Ain't. His. Kid. Irma agrees to stay.
Alan is helping Dani with her English homework. He offers to help her with other subjects as well. As Dani walks upstairs he leers at her and says he can hardly control himself.
Sofia tells Chava that Patricio talked to Tavares. Chava isn't happy. He doesn't like feeling like he owes Patricio something. (I don't get this. Chava doesn't owe Pato anything.)
Lupe' is having a dance recital at Cuco's place tonight. She goes to the factory with Chava to hand out fliers. Lupe' is talking to Dani when she is spotted by Silvana. They have an argument and in the process of throwing Lupe' out, Silvana knocks her to the floor. Lupe's ankle is sprained. Chava helps her home and now has to help improvise something for the dance program. Lucas is going to help.
One of the Ripoll trucks has an accident and an entire shipment of chocolate is lost. (I cannot believe I had to type that. An entire shipment of chocolate... gone. Truly tragic.) The client waiting for the shipment is so angry he hangs up on Sofia. Now the entire factory has to scramble to get another shipment ready to go in less than 24 hours. Pato tells Sofia not to worry, he'll take charge. Uh-Oh.
End of Episode.
GET WELL SOON MADELAINE!!

Tonight seemed explosiva...or at least there were a few chispas.
Mariano's Opening Credit Tears-Explained!
Big brother convinces Pablo that he needs to marry Monica because daddy dear is in deep doo doo and only the social support of the Elizalde's (or some such name) will help. Later Mariano moans about what a bad brother he is. He's in love with the same woman as his little brother! And he convinced his little brother to marry a woman he doesn't love so Esme will be freed up for him! He can finally look at her as a woman and not as a sister-in-law!

Weekend Discussion: Past vs Present Telenovela Conventions: What's the best combination?
What would you rather see again vs what's happening now? What do you miss about novelas of 20 years ago?
Let's not get into discussions about series length; we have done that to death.
I personally would prefer scenes to be longer. Sometimes when watching novelas now I get whiplash from the quick scene changes after two or three lines of dialogue. It gives the illusion of more action happening when in reality no more information is communicated in that episode than in an episode shot 20 years ago.
Let's have fewer situations about pregnancy entrapment or at least demonstrate that it mostly doesn't work, We have all witnessed at least one example of this in real life and all know that the consequences aren't pretty. The Isabelas of this world don't usually get what they want.
Force producers to make up their minds about the period of the story. It really annoys me when they can't make up their minds and we have no idea whether it's 1950 or 2010.
Add yours, my friends.

La Malquerida #34, 10/9/2014: Splendor in the Guestroom
Mexico Episode #39
Amigos,
Poor Madelaine has had a relapse of the flu and is going to
the hospital to get rehydrated. Please send all your positive and healing
thoughts her way. Here is a quick mini-cap from memory. Enjoy!
Since Mads is always giving us great ear-worms to take with us throughout the day, I thought I'd provide one in the form of a fan video for our star-crossed lovers Alejandra and German, to the tune of Sabes by Reik.
Since Mads is always giving us great ear-worms to take with us throughout the day, I thought I'd provide one in the form of a fan video for our star-crossed lovers Alejandra and German, to the tune of Sabes by Reik.
Ale and German:
-German, aka Big Sexy, has made his way into Ale’s bedroom
and her arms. In the midst of a passionate kiss and embrace, he disarms her apprehensions
and fears by saying simply that he loves her. They make love, as he caresses the
scar on her face and kisses her tenderly on her cheek, neck, and then lips.
(Uni cut out some of this, of course.)
-As they bask in the afterglow, German suddenly grows
serious. He thinks now is the time for them to speak with the truth, and
nothing but the truth. Alejandra closes in on herself and says this should have
never happened. German calls b.s. on that. He loves her. She loves him. They’ve
just had an amazing love-making session. She’s a grown woman and they should be
able to speak about this. He never expected to be the first man in her life—they
aren’t living in the last century, after all. He talks about how at first she
was afraid of even letting him touch her. But he’s happy to know that in
addition to all the love they have for each other, they can also feel pleasure.
He thinks it’s good for a woman to both be able to give and receive pleasure.
He would like Ale to tell him what’s going on/what happened. He can’t help her
if she doesn’t tell him. Ale snaps that she doesn’t need help!

Mi corazon es tuyo, #59, 09/10/14 Yo, mamma!
This is mostly bullet points style, there were a lot of short scenes that I put together for better flow. I hope it all makes sense.
Ana hears a voice singing her mother’s song,
as she remembers being a little child and watching her mom sing and play the
guitar (fun trivia – little Ana is played by Pablo Montero’s real daughter; look
closely and you will see the resemblance).
Yes, the person singing in present time is Yolanda’s and
Carmen Salinas is doing her best to do justice to the song, but she doesn’t
have the voice for it (if Yolanda truly is the mother, then her voice really
transformed over the years).
Ana walks into the room and stares at
Yolanda, who’s wondering what’s wrong, has the nana seen a ghost? Kind of…
Ana
doesn’t reply, she just leaves, she is just too shocked right now.
Sisterly advice
Fanny finds Alicia’s scrapbook with I heart
Gustavo written all over and tries to warn her little sister that the guy is
bad news. But Alicia thinks that she knows better and he will NOT hurt her the
same way that he hurt Fanny. (Ugh, Alicia, Isa’s obnoxiousness is rubbing off on
you. Careful!).
Fanny thinks that Alicia should be interested
in boys her own age, but then she gets interrupted by Enreek's call, confirming
their date/ creepy meet up.
Fanny needs to run, please don’t forget not
to hang out with older boys, mmmkay, Lichita?

La Gata #29- Thu 10/9 - La Afrenta
Silencioso reminds Esme that everything he does is for her to get Pablo back. From across the street, Pablo watches. Esme accuses Silencioso of trying to use her to get his revenge on Pablo and his family. He says that Augie has to "responder" (answer) for his crimes. Pablo has to answer to Esme for his crimes as well. He knows it was difficult for her to tell Pablo she wasn't going to see him again, but he hopes she'll feel differently tomorrow. Esme says she won't change her mind. It hurts too much to hurt Pablo. Silencioso hugs Esme to comfort her and Pablo says he really loves Esme, but she's just a tramp.
Monica tries to call him. She apparently had been listening to the audiobook of "How to Develop Your Telekinetic Powers" and summoned the phone to her side (it was previously on the coffee table). When she can't reach Pablo, she calls Lorenza, who tells her not to talk to Pablo right now because he's going through a rough time…he saw "that woman" and he's feeling confused and wants to break off the engagement. Monica starts getting weepy and Lorenza keeps up the fiction that no one believes--that Pablo loves her...but he's obsessed with that woman. Lorenza tells her to avoid Pablo's calls, turn off her cell, and Lorenza will email her when she's got Pablo's strings back on. "You'll marry Pablo, or my name isn't Lorenza de Martinez Negrete!" She's said this before, which makes me think that's not her name.

La Gata #28- Wed 10/8 - La Reaparición
Mariano sees that Lorenza is wearing a groove in the marble floor and asks her to confide in him. She tells him that she's worried because a man his dad had thrown in jail is out now and wants revenge. Mariano doesn't see what the big deal is because his dad is perfect, right? He tells her to calm down and stop crying. Once he leaves, Lorenza says she knows there's suffering on the way.
Pablo is up in his room staring blankly out the window. He's now seen Esme two days in a row, according to Mariano. He claims to be "embrujado" (bewitched). His love is stronger than he is, and even though he has no idea what her intentions are, he can't stop seeing her.
Esme, on the other hand, is telling Silencioso that she doesn't want to see Pablo anymore. It's too hard for her to pretend to be lighthearted when she'd rather be screaming at him. Silencioso tells her that if she loves him, she's going to have to fight for her love. Because if she doesn't, he'll marry Monica and be lost to her forever.

Mi corazon es tuyo #58... Tonight at the UFC event... Mama Bear vs Modern Wicked StepMom!!! Nico tries to free Jenny, Ana gets a new uniform and Fernando gets more enchanted with Ana
Refritos:
Leon crying over Fanny’s drawing.
Isa’s tantrum at her mirror and looking at the camera swearing vengeance… BWAHAHAHAHA!!!
Sebas telling Ana what happened with the twins, Isa and the school notebooks and him.
Lo Nuevo:
Outside the house, Reeky offers Fernando support. Fernando the dumb says ‘I am sure the office is in good hands with you’. Reeky tells Fernando he only has his dad but he had an embolism recently (it was your fault, embezzle!!) … but life goes on… give a kiss to your wife for me… of course… (DANG!!)
Reeky leaves, Fernando remembers Nando’s words while remembering moments mixed (before and after wedding with Isa) with Ana… ‘yeah I am a bitter old man’.
Isa continues moaning at mirror. Here comes Mama Bear…
‘You don’t mess with my kids!! You can do whatever you want with me, but with them… NO!! Give Thanks to heaven that you are pregnant, because you don’t know what I am capable of… you are not going to say anything?... how do you dare to hurt a kid like that?’ / ‘Fernando will hear about this.’ / ‘Orale! Sure! why don’t we start telling him about the issue of the notebooks or the fact that you enjoy humiliating the kids or that you hurt Sebas…’ / ‘don’t exaggerate, Ana! I did not do anything to him!’ / ‘ ah no? lets go see what Don Fernando says about you calling his son an ‘engendro’ … about that you said that he should overcome the loss of his mom… ‘ / ‘haven’t you got it? Sebas invented all this!’ / ‘Don’t tell me those things, Isa!! Let’s put Don Fernando to the test to see who he believes more, if you or one of his children… Let’s go! Orale!... should I drag you?’
Downstairs Fernando is in living room with Diego and Fanny. Fanny lets Fernando know Leon stopped by the office to see him while he was at the hospital with Nando and Ximena. Fer will deal with that tomorrow.Nico arrives. Bruno is there too. Fanny takes her leave to go to bed. Nico asks if he can join the whiskey round. Diego will wait for Ana.
Back upstairs. ‘So it is clear to you now. Right, spider? Don’t mess with my kids. ‘ / ‘you don’t have any idea who you are messing with, N A N A C A.’ / ‘ the one who has no clue who she is messing with is you, mija. And it is the last time you call me that way, because next time I will forget you are pregnant. How do you like that?’ / (Sebas is at door listening to all this, is scared and crying still) ‘ Do you really think you can intimidate me? Do you really believe you have power over me??’ / ‘ when Fernando finds out…’ (notice they both call him Fernando) / ‘When Fernando finds out, he will do what he promised me. This house is an absolute chaos. You think everything you do has no consequences? ‘ / ‘The consequences will be yours because…’ / ‘Don’t interrupt me, maid!! (ouch!).. The children are out of control… they are beasts. (ouch!!) and you motivate them to keep misbehaving…’ / ‘A ver, maestra’ (in this context is like saying ‘lets see ma’am!’ in Mex) ‘Don’t call them like that!’ / ‘Quiet!!’ / ‘they are no beasts or anything like that… they are better human beings than you!... let’s see, what they did was a prank. They are kids! On the contrary, you go steal their notebooks… who is the adult? The one with all those studies… the doctor degrees… ‘ / ‘let’s see… imagine that I slipped on the paint and had lost the baby (puts her hands on her belly) … that pair of ‘engendros’ are disrespectful… know who is the real one to blame?? You, Ana!! You, you and no one more than you!! (‘tu, tu y nadie mas que tu’ is a line in a famous song). Ana Leal!! The one that influences the kids… the one that should care for them, the one that should educate them!... ‘ / ‘Look, Isabella!...’ / ‘Quiet! I have not got to the punchline! Fernando knows perfectly that you are inept… and he promised me that the next time his kids misbehaved he was going to get a new Na-na! (Sebas gets even more upset) that simple! If you go with him with the tattle-tale, all you will do is put in evidence your ineptitude even more.’ / ‘ one! I just don’t believe you! … two! I can be all you say about me but I will never be a tarantula with no heart who utilizes helpless souls, including the one in your belly…’ / ‘ ah! Ya, ya! It would only be natural that you lost your cool one day… and slapped me… Oh, no! wait! You already did, right? (Ana looks down, a bit deflated/concerned) Because it would also be too bad that Fernando learned that you slapped his wife while she is pregnant. Remember you would not only lose your job… you would lose everything. ‘ / ‘ Alright… I will give it to you. I did screw that one. But nine months… or whatever you have left… pass pretty quickly, Chabela (a nickname for Isabela). What I don’t understand is that you utilize your baby to defend yourself… well, of course, you used it to marry him. You are capable of anything (whispers) you scare me, Isabela. ‘ / ‘ that is right, I am capable of everything… of everything!... to get you away from Fernando.’ / ‘ sure. I will only tell you one thing, and I will tell you slowly so it is clear to you. You mess with any of my kids again, and you will regret, Isabela, of having been born (where is Sebas to hear this?). Got that?’ (Ana leaves on a roll, and Isa is having another tantrum about hating the darn Nana)

advertise Lupe’s Dance Academy. Aracely
shows up and tells Lupe that Lupe and Paco will be great together. Lupe tells Aracely that Aracely and Paco will be great together. Lupe will check up on Paco while Aracely
works on getting Chava completely exonerated of all charges and
suspicions.
Ripoll: Chava tells Matias that he’s in love with a
chick that is totally out of his league.
Later, down in the locker room, Matias opens his locker and shows Chava
his shrine to Silvana. Matias wrongly
believes that Chava is still pining for Aracely. He tells Chava that Aracely broke up with “the
northerner”. Chava tells him that
Aracely is no longer the object of his affection.
Sophia tells Silvana that she’s shocked that Greta gave her
blessing to the wedding. She’s even
withdrew the demand for Patrick to sign a pre-nup. Sensing that Sophia is not happy about it,
Silvana asks Sophia if she can handle continuing on with a sham wedding with
Patrick. Silvana knows that Sophia is in
love with Chava although Sophia hasn’t said it.
She encourages Sophia to find the man that she loves and express her
true feelings to him.

i appologize this was a bit rushed, had a steering committee meeting at church... anyway, here we go!
Way to go Orioles and Cards!!
Refritos:
Johnny with the receptionist..
Fernando admits to Nando he is dying of jealousy of his brother… Nando tells Fernando he has not smiled since he married DissaBella … no scientist needed to know you are not happy. Do you think you are doing any of us a favor to know our father is not happy and did not fight for the woman he loves?
Ana arguing with twins about both of them forgetting the Spanish notebooks… Luz tries to cover for them, zipped mouth. Ana suspects there is something they are hiding…
Lo Nuevo: \
Diego won’t tell Ana what he has planned…
Nando asks DissaBella how is the baby going. She says ‘I feel it’ (LIAR!!) .. Fanny arrives asking for Ximena. Doctor comes out, she had a crisis, had to sedate her, can’t keep her here for long. She will have to be transferred to the Psych unit. And for that he will need her mother’s authorization. She would be locked up in the Psych ward. Nando impactado.
At house, Bruno serves YoMama her usual martini and snacks… she gets the blues and tells him she feels very lonely… Bruno willing to listen and talk…
Fanny asks Fernando about Ana… Diego and Sebas/Alicia arrive to the clinic to support Nando.. DissaBella rolls her eyes in disgust. Nando very thankful, group hug with Frida and the kids, Fernando and Diego join in, DissaBella looks at them like ‘these are clowns’…
YoMama spills her upset feelings to Bruno about the way DissaBella treats her, tells Bruno how she grew up poor, she worked in everything, she used to run errands, took care of kids… she discovered eventually she could sing, she would sing in the public transport trucks singing with her guitar… (Now Bruno is the one that seems to be recalling old times)… Bruno tells her he too has had hard times, and Don Nico rescued him. yoMama notes they have much in common… she was rescued by her husband… he always respected her and is the best that happened in her life (besides my DAUGHTERS …[NOOOOO SAY IT ISNT SO!!!!])
Diego will drop Ana at her house.
Fernando tells Nando he is concerned Nando has already missed two days of school. I get it that you are in love… or I don’t get it. Ximena is always depressed or angry all the time, can’t find anything you two have in common. Nando keeps insisting love has no explanation… what do you Fanny have in common with a messenger… or you, Dad, with Ana who takes care of the kids… Fernando points that neither Ana or Leon are ‘ill’. Fanny says we don’t want you to sink. Ximena’s mom arrives. She has an attitude from the get go ‘how is my daughter?’ (Fernando looks at her like 'oh my!')

Hello Everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend! Lots of stuff happening in this episode. Let's get to it!
Old:
Fausto tells Sofia that everything about her - her smiles, her body language, her obvious happiness when she is around Chava - shows that she is deeply in love with him.
Alexa finds Alan in her room when she wakes up. Alan tells her that Manolo knows where he is.
Greta says she's changed her mind about the pre-nup. Pato doesn't have to sign it because Greta wants him to be part of the family! Not only that, she wants Sofia and Patricio to get married as soon as possible! Chava walks into the living room and hears the whole thing.

Chava gets the rug pulled out from under him.

La Malquerida, capitulo 31. 10/06/14. Esteban is sinking deeper into crazyville.
Skipping the old..........
Esteban gets onto Cris for allowing Acacia to seek out Ulises. He always finds a way for Acacia to go back to him. Cris tries to explain that Acacia went to seek the truth about what she saw at the event. Esteban tells her she has no idea what Acacia went through seeing Ulises and Nuria together. How humiliated she felt. Cris feels she and Acacia made the right decision. In regards to Ulises, I will stand by her side.
Acacia looks in the window and see Nuria telling Ulises it's time for bed. She's about to knock on the door, but Rubio stops her. He warns her she might not like what she encounters if she goes in. he offers to go instead and punch Ulises. She decides it's best to leave.
Luisa comes back happy from the event she and Arturo catered. She sees Rosa with a long face and asks if something happened to Manuel. Instead she gets a slap in the face. When she asks what's the slap for, Rosa says for lying. You were never in a relationship with Manuel. He said he would never be in a relationship with a servant.

La Gata #26 10/06/2014 Miss Kitty goes to the ball
Hi all-this will be quick and dirty but I think I'll be able to cover everything:
Esmeralda and her daddy (Fernando) who she still does not know is one half of her parental unit arrive at the ball and Kitty cat looks good! She manages to get the attention of several of the guests, all of them stunned by her beauty.
Shoe update:she is not wearing boots!
Anyhoo, among the guests are Lorenza and her children along with her husband-you remember him right? He is the one that gets off on stealing other peoples property and framing innocent people. We will get back to him later, oh and Monica is also there, poor girl, will her public humiliation never end? Will she learn to just say "no" to Pablo and run off to a place where it's okay to wear red shoes that look like crocs in public? Am I asking for too much? (Yes, yes I am, but I can hope,no?)
Mariano is the first to spot Esmeralda (aka: Miss Kitty) and he points her out to his mother, he has enough avocados to actually comment on how beautiful Esmeralda looks in front of his mother and enough grace to actually say that he is happy for her. Can you imagine Pablo having enough grace and character to say such a thing? Of course not because the only thing that matters to Pablo is well, Pablo. Whatever the case may be I'm now a Mariano fan.
Lorenza is not happy for Esmeralda and makes it her mission to tell every one at the gala that Esmeralda is gutter trash (her words, not mine!), like a snake she slithers around spreading her venom, she makes the mistake of telling the ambassadors wife (the ones throwing the party and those who invited Fernando and Esmeralda there) the same story, but this time Fernando catches her and tells her that she needs to stop spreading gossip, or else. She makes the mistake of asking what the "or else" is and she gets put in her place. In short Fernando tells her who he really is and that her family will be sorry for all the crap they have pulled. Lorenza calls his bluff and tells him she is not alone, she has a husband and two sons to protect her! Fernando tells her to call them over and maybe the would like to hear what he has to say, Lorenza finds Agustin and tells him that Fernando wants to speak to him, in the end it's the same conversation Fernando had with Lorenza, he promises to get revenge and to expose Agustin as a liar and a thief and an all around criminal, Agustin says he is not scared but it is revealed to us that his conversation with Fer upset him enough to almost give him a heart attack ( a well deserved one!)
While this is taking place Esmeralda is on the dance floor, as is Pablo along with Monica and when Esme tries to say hello to him he treats her rather harshly and tells her that they have never been friends. He is enough of a jerk that the French ambassador has to tell him to behave. Later Esme bumps into Virginia and the two bond with Virginia suggesting Esme take Pablo away so that they can talk and resolve their issues. Pablo arrives, is again a jerk to Esme and when it looks like there will be another physical fight Fernando arrives and takes Kitty away.
The next morning Lorenza wakes up and realizes that Agustin is nowhere to be found, he comes in looking like death warmed over and he explains that his worse fears have come to pass, Fernando has made a formal accusation against him and it's only a matter of time until their life comes crashing down around them. Lorenzas suggestion? Throw Kitty and Fer in jail for a good 20 years. Agustin says this wont work, Fernando is not the same trusting man he once was, Lorenza finally looks worried.
Felas tale:
Okay, Fela after seeing Rita runs away in fear, and can anyone blame her? Rita looks like the crypt keeper but worse. However after thinking about this for a bit I have a few points I'd like to make, follow me dear friends:

- At some point Rita had some sort of relationship with Fela, she has spoken of Fela as if she were a dear friend, however:
- Rita was somehow involved in harm being done to Fela, did someone pay her off to look the other way while an attempt on Felas life was made?
- Why did they try to kill Fela? Was it simply to get their hands on Fernandos money?
Whatever the case may be Rita helped or was part of a plot to kill a friend, and not just that but she took a small baby and used her as a pay check. May you burn in telenovela hell Rita.
That's all I have folks!

Capitulo
56: Life Lessons
Lascuráin
Mansion: Over breakfast Ana tried to make Nando understand that
it wasn't his responsibility to cure Ximena of her problems. She
emphasized that this would be up to Ximena's doctor. Fanny also told
him he couldn't cure her. Nando is under the youthful delusion that
love can cure anything, but even Manuela couldn't let him go on like
this. She explained that she had an aunt with a mental problem and
who ended badly. Ximena could end up the same way. Ana tried to
dispel that bad vibe, both she and Fanny telling Nando once again
that he can't handle this. Ximena has isolated herself in Fanny's
room and isn't eating and this isn't getting any better. She's also
stopped taking her pills. Ana then suggested they go upstairs to
convince her to take them, but Fanny had to leave for work. Ana
blessed her first, she left, and Ana turned to Nando and said they
should go upstairs.

TELEMUNDO Y MÁS: Reina de Corazones -- PAGE ONE: week of October 6, 2014
What a breathless week we've had, my dear Reinamaniacs! What's next?
First Izzy and then Lopez 2.0 tracked down one of the Giant Red Diamonds to the sticky-fingered EMT guy. Uh oh.
More Fodder for Crackpot/Crockpot/Colander/Sieve Theorists: Asunción changes her story when she talks to Estefanía -- She knew Estefi's father when she was just a teenager. (Oh ho!) It was later that she married Pedro (el payaso) Ortíz.
Victor leads Christian, The Worst Cop in Las Vegas (TWCILV), by the nose, convincing him that Navier is responsible for the death of the hapless Reina stand-in. Later TWCILV somehow stumbles on the fact that Navier is actually a Secret Agent Man.
Navier, with Boris of Belgium's help, is about to flee the country. At the eleventh hour, Greta spills the frijoles about Christian's murky past -- maybe they can use the secret to help Navier. Femme Fatale Connie Leiva lures TWCILV to her house where Navier is waiting to pounce.
Serious Reinamaniacs -- feel free to review previous recaps in the dropbox Jean has set up here.
So is it time for our show yet?

Weekend Discussion: Sob Stories and Snob Stories
The snobbery expressed in telenovelas reminds me of a lot of things I've witnessed in life. I've previously explained some of them, but the baby gift incident in Mi Corazon es Tuyo last night made me remember the following story:
My college buddy recently became a grandfather for the first time (I think he's freaking out about it). I remember when his older daughter was born his now-ex bought her a Laura Ashley nightgown in a thrift shop for $3. It looked absolutely brand new; I'm sure its previous owner barely wore it a handful of times before outgrowing it. She showed it to me and another woman and we commended her on her practicality (which in this case she had learned with their firstborn). She begged us not to tell her husband, who had an issue with thrift shopping. This is the same man who wouldn't have made it to the IBM boardroom for not having attended an Ivy League university.
For a while they drove leased cars (Lexus and Mercedes) until they couldn't afford to continue to do so. It was all downhill from there and he is still recovering. Much of that was her fault 20 years ago but I won't bore you with the details. Interestingly she came from a family with a lot of reverse snobbery.
Tell your tales, amigos, and you can change the names to protect the guilty.

Mi Corazon es Tuyo #55, Two Offers Made, Two Offers Accepted
We start where we left off yesterday with Bunny, (I like this nickname since we don’t know her name yet, thanks to whoever came up with it) making a motion to can poor Fernando. Who’s up for this motion? Vote? The other directors sit nervously playing with their pencils, (snicker, snicker), awkward! Ah, a name. Senora Linda Olalde. Fer says that he’s known her objections of him for a looong time. He knows that all the things that she dislikes in him as a CEO has also paid off handsomely for her in making her over $100 million, but she whines that it could have been $200 million by now. You are going down Fernando, and I will see to it. Not until you have proof of my failings, sweetheart, until then, I’m going home. Child's play! Fer closes the meeting and says adieu. Bunny Olalde snaps her pencil in frustration.

Mexico Episode #35

The Old: Cris realizes
that Juliana is so excited about going to San Jacinto because that man (German’s
bio-dad) is there. At the ceremony reception, Uli tearfully tells Acacia that
if she leaves, this time he’s not coming after her.
The New:
Nuria is right there to grab Uli’s attention, and Esteban is
right there to keep stoking Acacia’s ire. Like an overzealous basketball coach,
he tells Acacia how well she’s done—demanding her respect and her proper place
with Uli. Acacia is already starting to have doubts. It is true after all, that
the Municipal President was the one who pressured them to get going and placed
Nuria with Uli. Este dismisses all of that. When a man loves a woman, he does
the impossible. Acacia still has doubts. “Do what you want, but don’t say later
that I didn’t warn you.” Acacia tells him he’s right, and they leave.
Carmen sends Nuria away and talks to Uli. She tells him to
wait till he’s calmed down to talk to Acacia, but for now, he needs to
concentrate on his event/work.
At the hospital, Cris and German talk. She updates him on
the Acacia-Uli problems. German knows how important this day was to the both of
them and asks if he can help. They talk about their art. German tells her about
the paintings he sold to the renovated restaurant—Cris will go see them. Cris
is planning on finally doing that exhibit of her photos. She asks German to
join her, but he knows it will just cause additional fights with Norberto. Norbie
can’t know that he’s still painting. Cris offers to speak to Norbie. German can’t
continue to hide such an important part of himself—his calling/vocation. Cris
loves the painting he did of Ale. They clam up when Norbie walks up.
