La Sombra Del Pasado #1 Discuss!

Hey patio peeps, sorry for the late recap, for those of you that don't know I have no internet/cable at home so I can't watch the episodes until Tueday mornings, apologies for the delay!

Ok, we start off with two babies being baptized, the first is baby Aldonza (named after her paternal grandmother), her parents are Roberta and Raymundo Alcozer. Roberta is a terribly unhappy woman, it seems like no one in town likes her and she resents the fact that no one other than her sister came to the baptism, everyone in town went to the other baptism for the child whose parents have much more wealth, even the parish priest sent a substitute, so that he could officiate the other ceremony. Roberta is very vocal about her dissatisfaction.

Que te perdone dios #20 Love don't pay the bills

Tia Mia's makeup is horrible. I'm sorry but every time they showed her on the screen all I could think of was "who ever did her make up needs a new gig", now that I got that of my chest let's get to the recap!

Diego and Abi are having a moment, he tells her that he loves her and she's all like "wha?"- Mateo is walking into the room and Abi spots him, so what does she do? She kisses Diego just to make Mateo jealous. Not cool Abi, not cool AT ALL. Mateo leaves the room slowly and poor Diego never even knows that he is being used, which blows by the way. Once Mateo is out of the room Abi pulls away from Diego and tells him that she's sorry but she is very confused, he is her best friend and she has no idea how she feels. Diego with tears in his eyes tells her that he will fight for her. My goodness, Valencia is a beautiful man. Sorry, I get distracted when I see pretty things. Ahem. Back to the recap.

Hasta el Fin del Mundo #127 Greta Goes to Work and the Celibate Lovebirds Really Need to Get a Room!

Casting Couch Rehearsal:

So, Paolo tells Alexa she'd better show some emotion because Guillermo is going to try out some new actresses.  Alexa, wearing a big bird dominatrix ensemble, stresses that she's messing up this gig like she's messed up everything else.  She explains that during her three days of leadership, the company tanked.  Paolo tells her to put the emotions that she's feeling into the scene.  When Guillermo returns, Alexa and Paolo repeat the scene for him.  Guillermo is appeased and says that she did much better.  After the rehearsal, Alexa stands up and Paolo almost kisses her.

Mi Corazón Es Tuya #148: Danger On The Home Front In More Ways Than One!



While Dana is considering how she’ll meet St. Peter, Ana worries how she’ll explain her dancing in El Chicago, and Fanny whines to Edith about her need for the right career choice, Isabela brews up a version of her kidnapping that points the finger at El Freek-ay de Enrique, incriminating him solely as plotting to avenge the financial ruin of his father’s company from cancelling a contract because of the shoddy product as well as his father’s heart attack, and, keeping her as clean and pure as the wind driven snow once a-a-a-a-gain.  

According to La Bruja ésa, the nut job seemed to be a brilliant co-alumna of Harvard so of course she wanted him for the presidency of the company.  He seemed to have a brilliant career ahead of him.  Then, while she was held in that cage he told her his plans to get even with everyone who had ever screwed him over in life.  “--That could then possibly include Fanny, couldn’t it?” asks Fernando.  After all she refused his advances while she was with Leon.  “—Perhaps he’ll get even with you by hurting her?  It could be that he blames her going to you as the reason he got fired.” Bela thinks to herself that “that wouldn’t be such a bad thing at all.….” Apparently that’s exactly the case cuz at the same moment Freek-ay is stalking incognito La Fannis on campus.  A security detail is called for in this case, reasons Ferd.

La Gata #118 2/13/15 El Fin: Was this the finale to "El Garabato" or La Gata? (™LN)


First of all, I want to thank Diva for taking on the leadership for both DQTQTQ and then for allowing me to drag her kicking and screaming into this mess. Mea culpa.

Eli-Thank you for jumping in there and with such wit and style. I can't tell you how many times in real life something has happened and I've thought "Oh the F*ckery!"

Lila-You are a pro. Special kudos to you. First time recapper AND it's with this dreck. Any recapping from now on will be a piece of cake.

I am excited that the team is sticking together for La Sombra del Pasado.

Finally many thanks to each and every commenter who stopped by. On a show like this, your support was SO appreciated. The patio has been an absolute blast and I feel really privileged to share it with fun folks like y'all.

OK, here's the deal, I watched the show last night, but I dropped my laptop.  I don't know what's up with the scheduled recapper.  I'm putting this up as a discussion page.  I will recap both 126 and 127 on Saturday morning.  In the meanwhile, please discuss the events of last night among yourselves.

I'll start off!  I thought it was hilarious that Igor had to perform CPR on Greta while simultaneously trying to kill her.

Mi corazon es tuyo, #147, Thursday Isa gets out of the cage, Fanny turns 20 and Ana continues to act like she's 15



I feel like whenever is my turn to write a recap, I’m sick. Two weeks ago I had a cold, and today I woke up with a tooth ache. I’ve never really had teeth problems in the past so this is new to me. The pain is still bearable, but I won’t be able to see my dentist in the next two weeks, so I’ll either go mad, or end up in the Emergency Room by then.
Either way, I’m afraid that today’s recap won’t be too stellar. Feel free to add the details that I’ve missed.


Jenny is afraid of Dorofeo and Johhny comforts her; he will protect her and he hopes that God will protect him in return.

Fanny and Lenin talk about how being born within a social class kind of seals your destiny. #stupid 
Lenin asks Fanny to give him Ana’s phone number because he wants to interview her (in reality he wants Ana to help him plan Fanny’s birthday surprise). 

Leon is drawing Fanny, thinking that tomorrow is her birthday.

Isa wakes up in the cage. Freaks remembers how Isa tried to kill him and how she said that the baby is his. Isa says she invented all that because he was trying to kill her at the time. Freaks doesn’t buy it and tells her that his father asked him to get his revenge on. For once Isa is the sane person in the room cage.

Yola keeps calling her daughter, who’s not picking up. She is very worried. She even calls Dorofeo, but he isn’t of much help. 

Fer and Ana talk about Isa and Freaks. They remember that Isa was present during Freaks’ accident, maybe he kidnapped her? Ana is not sure, she thinks that maybe Yola is exaggerating. 
Lenin calls Ana, wanting to talk about Fanny’s surprise party.

La Gata #117 Thursday, 2-12 Redemption

La Gata Patio PEEEEEPS!  Whaaaasssuup?  My time recapping this thang, that’s whussup!  Hallelujah and I only had minimal Lowencha and G-spot tonight!  Yes! 

This will be short, I don’t know about sweet because everything centered around poor little Carlos Horacio’s diagnosis  of leukemia.  While Victor is getting this difficult news Ines, Rita and Cha Cha are back at Victor’s apartment where Ines is grilling Rita about “Garabato’s” life, does he have a wife?  Why did the child call her abuela?  Ines begs and finally Rita breaks and tells her that Carlos Horacio is her son!

Now.  If Victor told little Carlos he has leukemia, I missed it.  We are served flashbacks from earlier in the day when Carlos Horacio (CH) saved Virginia and Vic tells him he has to fight but I didn’t hear him explain why.  Papa and hijo hug tenderly.

Que Te Perdone Dios, Cap 18: A Compromising Confession and a Game of Chicken

~~Parte 1~~
Cap #18

As we left it last time, Fausto was attempting to drown Diana in the river cuz if he couldn’t have her, nobody could—especially anybody younger and sexier like Mateo!!  As luck would have it, who should come trotting by on his white charger complete with a white hat, but Diego!  “—Let her go!”  He jumps into the river and forces Grey ‘n Grizzled Fuzzy to stop then and there!  “—Don’t you mess with me, peon!”  Diego steps back and Di races off to her bling-mobile with Feisty yelling after her to stop.  (She may be daring but she ain’t a total fool.)  Diego, meanwhile, unties Feisty’s hawss and shoos him away, leaving the crusty old homicidal maniac to hoof it home on his own--muy bad mojo.  


Back at the hacienda de Angel, Renata guesses that Abigail is mooning around the house cuz she’s fallen in love with the unavailable Mat.   Macaria sticks her nose in, having overheard the two of them and reminds Abi there’s no way some hacendado’s nephew is gonna ever pay serious attention to some servant’s kid.  Ren sends Abi away and gives Mac grief over speaking to “their” daughter that way.  “--Why not?    Did you really see yourself and Pablo together for the rest of your lives any more than me and your husband? I’m only trying to avoid the same suffering and bitterness the two of us have gone through our entire lives!  What for?  It cannot take place.”

Mi corazon es tuyo #146 More filler ... Fernando invites Ana to the beach and she is excited about it... Freeky has his first revenge victim in a cage.

Refritos:


Nando and Ximena and Edith at cafeteria, he tells them he did not want to hurt them.

Fernando tells all 7 kids that he is ready to propose to Ana, ring in hand.

Lo Nuevo:

Freeky escapes with the coaching of his ‘dad’.

Ana is visiting Jenny who admits she called her to come over because Fernando asked her to get Ana out of the house. Ana is a bit nervous, what could this ‘surprise’ be?

Hissabella arrives home in a huff, insults her mother again and calling her traitor several times. Hissabella says ‘don’t complain, this(I) is the monster you created!’ She again threatens Yomama not to become her enemy. Can’t kick you to the curb but you better stay out of my way! Ramona comes close to Yomama to give her some support. Yomama claims she is not to blame for what Hissabella is like. Ramona says God is witness that you repented for all the wrong you did. Don’t cry.

Jenny and Ana talk about how dedicated Angel was to caring for Aura all night long. Then they talk about Johny and the permits he is still missing to be able to open the business. Ana wants to call the house to check on the kids but Jenny says Fernando asked that you not be allowed to talk on the cell. He said for Ana not to worry. And asked Jenny to calm Ana down if she got into her hysterics. LOL! Ana proves his point with her reaction.

The kids suggest to Fernando to take Ana to the beach and propose there. Nando and Fanny even skid the proposal for him. The little ones huddle to talk if they agree with Nando and Fanny’s suggestion. But they add to do it like a treasure hunt with clues and hiding the ring somewhere. Even scuba diving… to search for keys… Fernando loves it.

Freeky leaves a dead-like nurse guy on the bed and takes off.

Fernando consults the ideas with Soledad, she gets excited about the whole thing. They all swear to secrecy. Fernando doesn’t even have to ask her… she will gladly take care of the troops. Siete also barks his agreement.

Ana and Jenny talk about how Johnny cares for Jenny. She is moved. The troops call Ana to come back home. All is clear.

At Chicago, Hissabella has made it in to the dressing room. She is looking for some evidence of Ana having been there.

Edith and Lenin talk at her room… She is nagging about Ximena. Edith feels that she will loose Nando. Lenin says its bad signal that Nando takes this long to ‘think things over’. Lenin tells Edith ‘when you feel, you don’t think.’ Edith is determined to fight for love.

Ximena is taking a web course on astrophysics. She tells herself she will show Edith she is not dumb like Edith says.

Edith changes the subject to Fanny. Lenin is not comfortable. Edith asks Lenin why he won’t give up on Fanny if she loves Leon. Edith says ‘there you go’.

Casa Ripoll
Alexa pouts over her sisters ganging up on her because of her mishandling of La Empresa.

Operaciones Renzi
Renzi is getting the low down there’s nothing medically wrong with Irma.  He assumes, rightly so, the the hubby must be fed up right about now. 

Casa Ripoll
Irkme and the kitchen maid are gossiping about Chocolate Ripoll when Miguelina and Fausto give them a dressing down.  We must support Chocolate Ripoll – never mind what the papers say and nary a word to Greta – are we clear?

Mi corazon es tuyo #145 filler, filler and more filler... Ana having 'nostalgia of the future' (could it be more like paranoia, Ana?) yada yada... my favorite part: previews and Luz asking: 'a que sabe la Gloria?'

I prepared a very quick one (one page and a few lines) and also included my longer recap. No need to read the long one, trust me. 
Johnny dances and shakes bootie for Jenny, shows her the tattoo he got on his chest with her name

After spending a hard night, Aura gets better at hospital, and Angel and Magda seem to get closer as well.

Fanny urges Nando to choose between Ximena and Edith, they are bickering at each other and annoying her.

Fernando talks to Fanny and Nando about getting ready to propose to Ana. Ana overhears only a bit of the convo. Ana wants to know what is going on when they come out… ‘deep Freudian stuff’. NOT!!

Fanny in her room is video talking with Lenin. Lenin recites to her some Amado Nervo poetry. Fanny goes to sleep remembering that poetry.

The kids watch the video taken by the remote car. Ana rants at them for watching ‘inappropriate’ stuff.

Isa is having a tantrum at her office, still complaining that she can’t open Ana’s video. Gordofeo calls Isa’s cell. Isa convinces him to lower the amount he wants, but then Isa tells herself she will not pay him anything after all.

Yomama arrives at Lasc Manor with a present for her grandson. Ana lets her in. Yomama warns her Isa is now more determined than ever to destroy Ana. Ana changes strategy: ‘best defense is the offense’.

Fernando shows Betty the ring… (Isa is watching it from door and is pointing finger angry, then runs back to her office to tap angrily that ‘this can’t be!!’ calls Ana: primitive, rustic, ordinary, arribista (social climber).

Gordofeo and his thugs visit Johnny. Calls him ungrateful. Johnny reminds him of when he locked him up with cockroaches. Johnny says ‘I don’t fear you anymore’. Tries to get Gordofeo out, says if the video gets to the police, he will kill Jenny in front of Johnny. Johnny warns he will call police if they come back. Gordofeo and his thugs leave.

Ana visits Isa at office. Asks the tarantula what is her plan. Isa says … the obvious, to terminate her. Ana repeats her warning ‘Don’t mess with me’. Are you going to kick me out of Fernando’s company? ‘Orale! Make my day!!’ Isa predicts agony and a slow death for Ana. Ana says that only happens to bad people. Betty comes in and stops the cockfight just a moment. Ana warns Isa that if she does anything against her, Ana will get payback.

Fernando is in his office rehearsing his proposal when Ana herself walks in. Ana comes up with the excuse she misses him. He is delighted she came. She notices he is hiding something. Fernando tells Ana he is about to walk into a meeting.Ana keeps asking what he was hiding. Fernando says it is confidential and she will know at the right moment.

At the college, Edith ran into Ximena, neither is amused. Ximena keeps provoking Edith. They both hear a bunch of girls swoon over Nando. Nando is speechless at all the attention. Ximena and Edith join them. Nando explains Sebas put his picture in social networks. He is surprised Ximena and Edith might think that he is interested in fame and ego. He says he does not want to make either of them suffer. Ximena and Edith end up leaving him with the other girls.

At Lasc kitchen, Lenin asks Fanny what she is planning to do for her birthday. He mentions she is a Capricorn. She is a work of art of the Creator. He becomes a believer when he sees her, but most of all, he believes in love. They kiss. This time she does not pull back. She half smiles.

At house a bit later, Fernando has all 7 and Siete together in homework room. He shows them the ring for Ana. He wants to let them know in advance, but also wants their help and advice. He says this little box has the ring for Ana. The twins say ‘another ring! You have given her some already!’ Fernando announces he wants to propose to Ana. All the kids are elated.

Previews: Isa arrives at Ana’s dressing room at Chicago. Gordofeo is angry saying no one mocks him!!

Also, Freeky seems to escape the hospital and we see Torres telling Fernando and Ana about it.

Freeky grabs Isa from behind and we see Fernando worried.

La Gata #115 2/10/15 La Manipulación

This is your mother-in-law.

This is your mother-in-law on drugs (steroids to be precise.)

I started taking notes and then I was drawn into this...

...incredible (as in beyond belief) turn of events. It was like a train wreck and I couldn't stop watching. So I gave up notes after a while. Pabs and Esme fight for pretty much the whole episode with short interruptions for commercials and our other story lines. I'm not sure how to cover this. I definitely didn't take notes because this was the part that just left me gobsmacked. There's some condensing and combining for sure.

I know it was in the Refrito, but Meche says something to Dam about lying to Vicky. So he must have something up his sleeve, but poor Vicky thinks she's just been demoted to second fiddle. Not cool, Dam.

La Gata #114 Never trust a proven liar

I'm still working on watching the show-so feel free to comment while I try and get through this! Pray for me!

Okay, well, I don't know where to start but I guess I'll start by making a list of things Lorenza has done and gotten away with.


  • Kept Pablo and Esmeralda from getting in touch with each other-it was proven that she had a hand in this, yet nothing happened to her.
  • Was horrible to Virginia-at her wedding: Nothing happened to her
  • Was in on Esmeralda's kidnapping, got caught and nothing happened 
  • Was the master mind behind the whole Juan Garza plot and nothing happened to her
  • Tried to KILL HER OWN GRANDCHILDREN AND WHAT DID SHE GET?
NOTHING. A BIG OL NOTHING. IN FACT THE MOTHER OF THE CHILDREN SHE TRIED TO KILL NOT ONLY LIVES WITH HER BUT ACTUALLY CRAVES HER AFFECTION/ACCEPTANCE AND OH SWEET BABY JESUS WHY DID WE KEEP WATCHING!?

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #123 2/9/15 If the Ship is Sinking, Just Keep Bailing Damn It!


The Good Ship Ripoll Sails into Troubled Waters.
 
From Friday:
Sofia reluctantly joins Dani and Alexa in a sisterly "All for One and One for All" moment pledging to keep the factory afloat. Chava hides his official man card and asks if he can join the sorority too.
 
Yovet, lounging on the couch in a black leather number, calls Irais and insists that she come home and hustle up some grub for her. Apparently Yovet can't do anything except whine and apply makeup. Lots and lots of makeup. Irais tells Yovet to make herself a sandwich and stop bothering her. Both she and Matias have work to do.
 
Sofia has letters to write to clients, machinery to clean, products to sort and a factory to save, but still has time to make out with Chava. Priorities people, priorities.
 
Chava tells Armie that he is sure Renzi and Pato are behind all the bad happenings in the 'hood and they need to break into Renzi's office to find the proof.
 
At dinner with Pedro, Araceli threatens to sue the Ripolls over the recipes that Paco voluntarily gave to Sofia.

Que Te Perdone Dios on Monday, February 9, 2015.

Di and Mateo are talking and getting intimate when Fausto zones in on them. Simona comes out in need of a doctor and Mateo goes off with her; thus Fausto has the opportunity to smack Di around. She then lies fot her life and Fausto has subtle mercy on her.

Effie and Eddie are ready to hit the sack.

Di realizes that Mateo's love is genuine and that pisses Fausto off some more.

PatPrize and Ren are at the table when Abi comes in.

Di drives off leaving Fausto with the words in his mouth.

Two people are having sex (I didn't see who they were.)

Simona thanks Mateo for his help and showers him with good humor, compliments and smiles.

Fausto walks in to give Lucio money for all his trouble and a talking to.

MACgiftcard has something up her sleeve.

Two guys are impeded in an escapade by a girl.

In a bar, there is a bevy of men (too many, even for ny taste.) Diego and Lucio act as if they're about to fight forasomething when they don't and Fausto comes in.

Tia Mia and Di talk about Fausto.

Diego has just pushed Fausto's berserk button and is having the stuffing beat out of him. Lucio then beats up another guy because IDK and it's hiur typical Machista Bar Fight.

Renata is having nightmarea about Fausto beating her up ans rapinh her, then wakea up.

Abi is remembering her kissing Mateo

Mateo is as well.

MACgiftcard is in a frenzy.

Abi has gone outside and Fausto is accosting her .She doesn't tolerate it.

Connie has officially lost it. She shoykd have accepted Mel's help.

Fausto is about to accost the life out of a dormant Renata.

PatPrize and Mateo

Fausto eyes Renata's dormant self zome more.

MACgiftcard abuses Abi a bad amount.

Vicenta scolds Diego for having gotten in a fight and you know, typical stuff a Mexican grandma would chide you for.

Fausto is in the dark biding his time when Renata wakes up askinh who ia there. She squabbles with Fausto as usual.

Mandy has prepared a lovely meal for Mateo amd they discuss Renata.

Fausto and Renata are talking and yoi know it's weird because at one point Ren looks like she i going to laigh.

Vicenta and Mandy- Abi and Mateo are eating when PatPrize comes in and eats as well.

Mandy has served Fausto food at a baron table and taht is the end of the episode.

====
[Here are a few more details for you from ViviDC that merit being included. --edit.]

Mateo blabbed to Fausto that he and Diana have been seriously seeing each other for a year, not the short, non-serious flirtation Diana had led Fausto to believe. Diana's excuse was that she loves Fausto and wants to be his wife. She's getting tired of living in the shadows. Diana also swore to Fausto that she and Mateo have NEVER had sex. Fausto is her only man.Mateo would marry her. She pressures Fausto to get rid of Renata and marry her. Both Fausto and her aunt point out that he would be left with nothing if he divorced Ren. Her basic reply is if there is a will, there's a way. 

Fausto's reaction to this is to think real hard about Ren and their marriage, the benefits (money, power), and the lack of benefits (no sex, no kids). Hearing Pat telling Mateo about having to give Ren a sedative because of her nightmares, seemed to change his mind about raping her. Why? Maybe he likes his victims completely awake? Or maybe he realized Mateo and Pat would hear the screams and beat the crap out of him? Anyway, when she wakes up in the morning they argue about him being in her room, the long ago rape, why she won't have bis kids, and then he asks for her help help convincing Mateo to dump Diana. Ren is amused by this because she suspects Diana is his mistress.  

Simona took Mateo to treat the sick baby of a poor neighbor. She tells Mateo she has been nominated by one of the parties to run for mayor. Mateo thinks this is great, but tells her Fausto has been nominated by another party. This makes Simona more determined to run.

The couple getting it on was glasses sister and the mechanic. Meanwhile, the other sister was getting it on with Simona's barely legal son. Both had to escape through the window. Both were paid for their services by the sisters. The sisters' maid (Abi's friend) is the one who caught them, but she doesn't seem to disapprove. 

Diego and Benito were trying to convince some of the men at the cantina to leave Fausto and to come work with them. Lucio and Fausto didn't like this one bit. Fight!

Fausto paid Lucio well for being his whipping boy and taking the blame for kicking out Mat's mom. Lucio then revealed to Fausto that Macacria is planning to betray Fausto and tried to enlist him. Fausto tells Lucio that Mac has the gun they killed Pedro with. They plan that Lucio will pretend to go along with Mac's plan, and find out where she has that gun.

Meanwhile, it seems that Mac just keeps the gun in her bedroom just wrapped in a handkerchief, while she talks crazy holding it. When Abi goes out for a midnight stroll, Mac accuses her of having been out having sex with Diego and that she'll come back pregnant by a peon, just like Renata...She stops herself before she spills anymore beans.

Mateo, Patricio and Ren all decide to eat in the kitchen, leaving Fausto alone at the big table. This is in solidarity with Abi, who Fausto has now banned from the big table.

Ana & Jennifer's House: Ana, Jenny, Dana, and Johnny discussed their scheme to get her out of Chicago. She was sure they had Dorofeo where they wanted him because bribing a city official is illegal.

TELEMUNDO Y MÁS: Dueños del Paraíso, Los Miserables, Tierra de Reyes, etc - Week of Feb. 9, 2015

Welcome to another week of what are sure to be amazing recaps and smart comments inspired by the current primetime lineup on Telemundo.  

The March issue of People en Español (Yes, damn it, I subscribe --  Please don't judge me!) has a multipage feature on Kate and the retro fashions she wears in Dueños del Paraíso.  One tidbit in the piece really surprised me:

When it comes to judging an outfit for the show, her best advisor is her co-star, José "Chema" Torre [Adán Romero], who is not only an actor but also a Mexican designer who has just launched a line of tailored suits for men.  "I ask Chema, 'Does this look good?' and he helps me," says Kate.

Who knew?  Personally, I'd love to see Adán as a guest judge on Project Runway one of these days...

Los Miserables has us (well, some of us... well, me...) watching breathlessly, though perhaps with less emotional investment and a bit more cynicism than earlier, before we started thinking of it as Los Improbables and Daniel as that round-headed kid, Charlie Brown, with Lily as Lucy, eternally pulling the football away.  (Lucía who?)

Tierra de Reyes has its share of fans around here too.  The speculation about Arturo's hat(s) is proceeding apace, as is the bewilderment at the apparent obliviousness of Aarón Díaz to his facial expressions (which, to paraphrase Dorothy Parker, run the gamut from A to B). 

Stay warm and safe and have fun, folks!

Que te Perdone Dios

Ok, here we go! Full disclosure, I have a terrible headache and I'm recapping with no notes, if I miss something please feel free to point it out in the comments section. The recap also won't be as long or detailed as I'd like because this headache is kicking my butt.

We return to a nasty scene, Lucio on Fausto's orders is kicking out Elena (Univison's website has her name spelled as Helena), she tries to reason with him, and even asks him who comforted him while he cried for his son, Lucio seems to have a change of heart and tells the men to bring in the furniture that they had removed. Helena breathes a sigh a relief but that's short lived as Lucio soon says "The furniture belongs to Don Fausto, so that stays, everything else that belongs to this woman goes"- they then throw all her clothes, along with Mateos clothing outside. Lucio invites the two men that are with him to go eat some birria while they wait for the locksmith to come and change all the locks in the house. Well, he might be a rat bastard but at least he has good taste in food. Seriously, if you ever have a chance to have birria order two servings and dig in! Helena is distraught as she finds herself outside her former house with all her  possessions on the sidewalk.

La Gata #113 2/6/15 OFFS

I still hate this show.
I still hate Latoodle.
I am only mildly annoyed with Univision.

For the first time ever I actually hate the protagonista. Please don't be upset, gringo. I still adore Maite to my core, but it is awful how utterly stupid her character has turned out to be.

Don't be alarmed as I also hate the galán.

I might as well get on with this and put me out of my misery.

Leti and Virginia 2.0 discuss how wretched grandma is. She only likes Pablo. Poor girls.

Mariano and Pablo confab. Pablo wants to know about the fortune Fer gave back to the Martinez Negretes. It hasn't been touched in all these years and surely a lot of interest has accrued? Mariano has some bad news.

La Gata #112 2-5-15 Call CPS Quick, Fast, and in a Hurry!!!


La Gata Patio Peeps, the suffering is not over.  Let’s come together to support one another and do all we can to prevent PTSD.  I don’t know about you but I certainly need some positive vibes and some laughter cause there sure wasn’t much of that tonight.  This episode was surely two-in-one the way it jumped all over the place.   Please y’all, show this no mercy.  Don’t follow my lack luster example in this recap.  As they say on Fox:  LET IT RIP!!

About eight or nine years have passed and we open with a birthday party for . . .who?  There are eight or nine candles on the cake and the gang’s all there including Virginia, Pablito and Leti.

Carlos and little Virginia are doing well.  She is an absolute doll and yes, she is blind, and attends the institute.  He adores her and is a loving and proud daddy but little Virginia isn't the only one blind, as we shall see later.

Mi corazon es tuyo #140 Smile, Dorofeo!! you're on Dana Camera!! ... Ana and Bruno with the switched flower arrangement cards... and Nando gets a makeover

Refritos:


Ana is sending the kids off to school. Zeus is a bit distracted drooling for Manuela.

Fanny won’t let Ximena come to the college with her to avoid any ugly confrontation with Edith, even though Ximena tells her she talked to Edith and told her she is not trying to take Nando from her.

Ana, Johnny and Jenny watch the camera monitor as Dana is taping Dorofeo and the lawyer who just arrived.

Lo Nuevo:

The broache recording is working well, Johnny and Ana are watching Dorofeo and his thugs in his office. Ana is praying and focusing, they are crossing fingers that Dorofeo will fall in the trap…

Fanny arrives at school, Lenin starts reciting some poem from Octavio Paz (according to the teacher who is not amused at Lenin’s skill in reciting poems)… Fanny is not amused either and even gets reprimanded by the teacher for talking to Lenin.

Leon has arrived to present his thesis and his oral professional exam. He is obviously nervous.

Fernando is waiting for the meeting time, meanwhile he asks Betty to order flowers to arrive at the house for Ana EVERY DAY!!!... he also has a bit of fun with Betty and her relationship with Bruno ‘I get it… “I have everything to do with Bruno”’…

Meanwhile said Bruno is in the kitchen totally zoned out thinking of Betty while Zeus is flirting at Manuela right in his face. Zeus points to Manuela that Bruno seems to not care much about her…

At Chicago, the lawyer asks for a bigger pay for his services so Dorofeo can keep the Chicago open, “you know, inflation”. After some negotiation and rant, Dorofeo gives in and hands him a whole stack of money. Ana and Johnny are celebrating that they finally got Dorofeo where they want him. Jen is watching the door of the dressing room.

Isa arrives at the office, Fernando questions her on her state of mind… ‘are you really ok? Yesterday at the house you were acting… to say the least… wacko’. She gets a bit miffed that he questions her state of mind or her work quality. Hissabella gets Johnny’s full name from Fernando. Seems this is not Fernando’s best mood day… Torres arrives late and Fernando is a bit miffed about that and is not quiet about it…

Ana and Johnny and Jenny get a scare when one of Dorofeo’s thugs comes in the dressing room and seems to have spotted something in Johnny’s hands but Ana finds a way to cover it up with clothes and hide it from sight. After the guy leaves, they talk about Ana being Fernando’s gf and Jenny is a bit jealous that she has no one to call her his gf.

Hissabella is talking on phone to the investigator and sends them to investigate a Juan Gutierrez, alias Johnny, who lives in Ecatepec.

Yomama is confessing at church, tells priest she has hurt some woman named Anita Leal because her daughter made her.

La Gata #111 - Wed 2/4- La Muerte

Tonight, the quote in the heading is especially apt...
"Come, let us gather together and suffer, sisters and brothers." -- Alice 

With zero refrito, we go right back to the wedding in progress.  Pablo's hair is less sticky-uppy than usual.  Esme's locks gleam.  They remember their first wedding.

Gi monologues to the lighter…and gets busted by HatBro.  She just keeps flicking her Bic uselessly…that's not a euphemism.

The wedding continues.  Everyone smiles at each other.  Vicky is there, which explains HatBro's presence, sort of.  Maybe he doesn't like weddings.  Or needed to use the facilities.  Yes, Lo, you still don't love Esme.  We get it.  We got it the last fifty times you said it.  Mariano's back to a plaid bow tie…and looking at his mother like he knows what she's thinking.  And who doesn't, with that sour expression on her face?  Javier is there, looking only slightly less unhappy.  They close the deal with a big smooch.  Too bad, Gi.

Tue 2/3/15 #119 Hasta el Fin del Mundo – Chava “El Choferete” Cruz battles Greta “La Ogra” Ripoll; special appearance by Benito el Pigleto


That ain’t no K-Mart Special
Pawnbroker informs a very surprised Lupe that the bracelet is 18k gold!  Lupe had no idea and now doesn’t want to pawn it if it’s that expensive.

Meanwhile, scumbag Javier figures there are other fish in the sea.  If Lupita won’t have him, he’ll find someone else.  He dials up his old standby, Isa-idiota.  He really lays it on thick (Sra. Bonita, etc. etc.) but we don’t hear Isa’s side of the conversation.

Mi corazon es tuyo #140 Hissabella attacks Ana and Fernando... she swears to split them. Fernando makes an indecent proposal to Ana...

Refritos:


Bruno arrives to Betty’s for a 2nd helping. He is alarmed when she tells him she told Fernando about ‘em, but when he hears Fernando was ok with it he is ready for eh…. Dinner.

Johnny arrives at the kitchen, doorbell rings, Manuela sends him to open the door… it’s Hissabella!! Ready for trapping another craving into her web… she pushes Johnny right into the sofa... for some close-up greeting.

Lo Nuevo:

Johnny is trying hard to resist her… is able to avoid her kisses, but she keeps on pushing and flaunting her desire…

Magda and Angel arrive at some restaurant… she is ready for a romantic night… him, not so much, more like feels like he just needs to go badly…

Johnny is able to get Hissabella off him, only briefly… she swirls herself back on his lap… he is breathing hard… really working on resisting the temptation. He gets to stand up, she keeps flaunting herself as the golden treasure he never dreamed of… he admits she is really gorgeous and desirable, but… she keeps walking him to pin him against the wall/column. She grabs him by the belt loops and invites him to her apartment. He finally ‘gets it’ that the plumbing emergency was intentional of her… he finally gives in to the kisses…

Jen is worried at hime, remembering the conversation with Fanny about being able to adopt a baby only if they’re married. Jen is starting to like the idea of marrying Johnny if he asked her.

Johnny is able to resist and snap away from Hissabella’s grip… she is outraged that he is able to resist her. She is in disbelief when he tells her ‘I don’t think that Jenny will like it if I do this…’

In the kitchen, Soledad and Nando talk to the 5 younger ones… They hear the ruckus in the living room between Hissabella and Johnny… She is throwing things at him… Manuela, Soledad and the kids come out…

M: Everything alright?

J: No, not everything is alright!

Kids at unison : Isabella!!!

The baby is crying and they all hear it through the monitor, Hissabella announces she came to see her beautiful baby… and walks around all the gang right toward the library (why would she go to the library if she is going to see the baby who usually is in Ana’s room??? ) Isabella goes into library, followed by everyone. She breathes green smoke like a train locomotive (with sound effect and all) and launches after Fernando and Ana when she sees them kissing… The kids give Fernando a yell and Fernando is barely able to push Ana and himself out of Hissabella’s way so she lands on the couch… He (concerned) asks her if she’s alright… She says ‘NO! Of course I’m NOT Alright!!’

Ana: what happened?? (to the kids)

Nando: Johnny opened the door to her!

Alicia: And then she came in here and saw you two kissing!

Fernando is still concerned for Hissabella’s emotional status… (he is swinging his hands at her face to see if she follows them, he is also stuttering!!?? LOL!!) tries to get her to sit down and asks Manuela to bring her some water, but she walks out fast angry telling herself ‘I will separate them if it is the last thing I do in my pathetic life!’ (Fernando stares at her, not really knowing what to think about what just happened). Soledad asks if someone knows what just happened.

Angel asks Magda what she is after. She wants him to understand that she realized she made a mistake letting him go. She loves him! She wants them to try again!. Angel adds that she must think that having a new child would turn the page for her on the guilt she feels for the one she lost. She insists she just wants a 2nd chance. Insists she loves him and that she is suffering having lost him and is so sorry to have lost him. She gave him that xmas present to try to get close to him because she knows he is really dreaming of having a family. She insists she loves him. He can only tell her he is not sure if he still loves her. Magda insists… lather… repeat…

Magda changes strategy and has a proposal. She accepts he ‘believes’ he loves Ana. She accepts that he does not trust her or is sure he still loves her. She only wants a 2nd chance to be with him and to give him a child. He rolls his eyes… lather… repeat.

At the house, Fernando has finally come off the surprise trance and Ana sends all the kids to bed. Nando congratulates him one last time. Once they are left alone, they start smiling at each other in a very high school sweethearts-cootie way.

Ugh, this episode was lame, yeah sure Jarocha got kidnapped but I have no doubt that she will be rescued.

So we start with Pablo coming home and finding creepy doctor having lunch with Esmeralda, Pablo is not liking this and so he starts talking about what a wonderful day he had with the kids-the kind of day only a real father could give them. Whatever, Pablo. Whatever. 

Esmeralda frets because Jarocha is not home yet, Pablo tells her not to worry. She should worry because Jerocha has been kidnapped by Tilico, his good for nothing daughter and one of Garabato's former friends.These three don't understand the concept of team work and fight about everything, including how much each of them is going to get from the ransom money, Ines wants it to be split three ways but Tilico tells her he will determine how much Ines and Garabato's friend get. Team work guys, team work! If you can't trust the people you kidnap with who can you trust?

Que Te Perdone Dios on Monday, February 2nd, 2015.

Mateo mentions the kiss between them and Abigail saysbit was her first, so don't worry about it. I eavesdrop on their conversation and swoon; their relationship and love gonna pay off in the long run. Abi says she will always remember it (fondly) and Teo says he had never seen her like, Abi cuts in with, "as a woman?" "Yeah that and I promise never to sneak-a-kiss again." "OMG STAHP." "Well did you want me to kiss you? " (Cara de Yes I Did and Enjoyed Every Second of It.) Aaand here comes Mac in a lovely off-a-shoulder ensemble and syas that Renata needs her. Mateo says they can't leaveRen waiting and asks if she'd like him to go with her. She walks off, with Mac not far behind, yonder in a huff and with a smile, Mateo follows.

Renata says to Abi that with the receiving of the docs'n'deed she will be given "El Ramada(?)" as the ONLY owner (cue Fausto's poo-face) and tells her she knows Abi is capable of making it thrive. Abi thought El Ramada was Mateo's and he reminds her about having wanted to sell it and Renata once again chimes in with positive choice words. Now Fausto does; Color me surprised, my wife is she who pleaded to keep things under wraps? Mateo's expression just screams you bet your britches. Renata reminds him of Racing Day; Teo did it as a mega sweet surprise for her. So you two were in league together this whole time? (I want to throttle yiuto death right now but) I'm (too) proud of you for having swam circles around me in this aspect. Mateo keeps sweetly nudging Abi to accept it and Mac pipes up; Of course we accept! It's always been like my dream to be the Duena y Senora of El Ramada (I call BS on MAC from in the crowd and add that red lipstick with gloss makes her look bloody-lipped.) Renata then twists Mac's nipple a bit; then help me convince "your daughter." Come on Abigail, this is my gift for your 18th birthday. Fausto then says it's evident why he's so happy; his nephew isn't just a doctor but is a little casanova and Fausto himself has a valuable wife who is such a good example and lastly but least of all, Abigail who he whole-heartedly (burns at the crotch for) congratulates. He says she has always (been the flash of his mind while releasing himself) something to him and with that, a HUZZAH! and a toast! Applause all around. Ren tells Abi not to confide in anyone since there are a lot of people who will try to snatch it from her the first chance they get. Only you must hold uo that title you'e been given just now. Fausto calls Mac who still has the documents over with a motion of the fingers and  they're on the home stretch when Abi takes them since she wants Renata to take care of them.

Fausto and Mac take it (but not the D'n'Ds) outside. He is so mad and angrily says he is the only owner of El Ramada, understood?  She calls him Mi Amor and he gets mad; don't call me that. She wants to owen he is gong to divorce Renata and get with her; he call that an estupidez. Renata trusts me Fausto, like a sister and keep in mind I can manipulate Abigail. Then get to it damnit because I'm not going to become the laughingstock of the town! Mac suggests he change his attitude with her and she misses him most at night then walks away.

Tia Mia says that Abigail is more active than Diana to Princess Di herself and that she isn't even just trying to take Mateo away. Look at her go, she's got that mansion  that's probably worth a butt-load! Princess Diana then says she can't stand a second more and TM than says they can leave, just tell her when. Di than says she can't leave and needs to find a way to talk with Mateo.

Mateo and Patricio are now talking. Pat wants to know why he didn't tell him about having won the rancho from a horserace and Mat says that it was for a good cause. Pat then says that was a grand gesture on his part and that Abi interests him in more than he wants to admit. Don't get confused Pat, the confused one is you Mat.

At the table of Chatty Cathies, Eddi asks the girls if anyone else thinks Mat's gift was too much. Effie than says yes but Abi is like a daughter to poor (spinster) Renata. Simona (my favorite, Zaide Silvia) is in on the convo and tells them not to talk so low since there's nothing to hide (I think Mona has had a little too much to drink LOL.) Mona points out Renata loves Abi as if she were her own flesh and blood! The most logical explanation is that she would want to protect Abi and nothing more. Eddi (who I liked WAY more as Raiza on CI) says Mona es tan...asi. Effie than says tgat that's why the town loves her so much. Mona than says if people love her so much, it's because she always lends a hand to those in need and nothing less! Cheers to that!

Lucio is getting his drink on and thought-bubbling that once Fausto realizes that the police found Pablo's remains because of Lucio himself, wait, I didn't say anything. It's that damn BrujoGuyMel's fault damnit. No one knows what Fausto and I did it to him.

Fausto has left the Chatty Cathies' ChaCha and is with his type of people getting his drink on. Cheers to Abigail, the prettiest woman in town!

Princess Di asks Mat if he can take her and TM home. Mat says he can't. PD then says the dead mosquito's kiss left him feeling gewd right? He iisn't having this right now, they'll talk tomorrow.

Meanwhile Vicenta and the servants are having dinner when she asks Benito where Diego is. He invited Diego to come and eat but he didn't accept so now he doesn't know. Vic is worried about Fausto firing him and Ben then says after all the fights he has fights with Fausto, it's inevitable. Vic says not even to joke about that and Amanda says that Renata will always be the one to defend him no matter what. Bentio asks Amanda when she will present herself to Abi and Vic then says when Mandy is good and ready. Mandy says she is hoping soon since there is a ton to talk about.

Mac has sauntered into Fausto's study for some smooching and evil interaction.

Pat'n'Mat talk about Renata and the conversation helps Mateo realize he is geuninely in love with her.

Quiero Amarte (Week 20-Feb 2) Highlights and Discussion

NEW DIRECTIONS

Our heroes, heroines, villains and villainesses are heading in different directions where they think they will triumph over their adversaries. None of this is pleasing to Viewerville. Please, Sr. Moreno, don't let your writers and directors run this novela off the rails. It's not too late for new recruits to become engaged in this wonderful telenovela. 

Let's review:

Amaya-has ended her romantic relationship with bon-bon Max in order to devote full time and attention to bringing his mother's evil and criminal deeds against her family members to light. She feels hypocritical to move ahead with their plans to marry if what she is doing will ultimately devastate him. To finalize the breakup, she intends to begin a relationship with nob-nob Cesar, whose immoral intentions she is now privy to. She plans to use him to get to Lucrecia. This is her new direction.

Max-has just been dealt a blow to the heart. Whether it is terminal or not is up to him. The love of his life, with whom he was sure he would spend the rest of his life, has cut him off with the barest of excuses. Max is not one to sit around with his arms crossed. He's going to get to the bottom of this inexplicable repudiation of his love for her, or he's not who he believes himself to be. He has a host of allies to turn to. This is his new direction.

Cesar-in his quest to be the Head of the Holy Mexican Coffee Empire, needs to secure his position as sole heir to his father's fortunes, dominate the business empire he plans to run and not least, his father's undying admiration (or it could be his dying admiration). He's not above using nefarious schemes to rob his father's company, do his mother's bidding (as long as it's in his selfish interests) and entertain thoughts of eliminating his only rival, Max. In the interim, he's content with taking away his brother's fiancée and marry her himself, despite his mother's objections. This opportunity fell in his lap (so to speak) just last week. Undoubtedly he will act on this swiftly. This is his new direction.

Lucrecia-thinks she has all her ducks well in hand and will pick off the ones that disturb her the most whenever she feels like it. Cesar, her favored child, though having no Montesinos blood in his veins, cannot be trusted completely. She has loved torturing Mauro with unending hopes of finding his beloved Florencia, has succeeded in keeping her son Lucio quiet about her transgressions, Omar permanently quiet, Emma permanently quiet, Juliana on her way to being permanently depressed, and Flavia unbalanced and self deprecating. Now she expects Amaya to come into her sphere and be subservient to her intentions, using her pious grin and behind-the-scenes machinations. This is her new direction.

Fausto gets the shaft, and it was awesome! Que te Perdone dios #10

The recap is up and totally done. I apologize for it being so late but all my recaps will be done like this, it is very hard to recap a show, especially a good one that has a lot of things going on at once, when I was recapping LQLVMR I would on occasion work will three in the morning to get it up on time, currently I don't have internet or cable at home so I'm recapping either before work, or after. You will always get a recap from me, unless I have an emergency, for now they will be posted late but I hope they are worth it!

So I've made up my mind that I really hate Fausto and so for me this episode was extra satisfying, let's get to it!

Fausto is visiting Diana and showing her a watch that he got Abigail for her birthday, she says that the gift is too expensive and far too good for a simple servant, the watch is something a woman like her should be getting. Fausto tells her to keep the watch but to make sure to wear it to the party. He then leaves.

Diana looks at her aunt and asks her what she should do, she is told to go to the party and wear the watch. Ummm, am I the only one bothered by the fact that Fausto and Diana has a mini-makeout session with the creepy aunt in the background? Gross. But even worse, what the hell was the woman wearing. Seriously. WTF. That coat was hideous! A true crime against fashion. do not get me started on her makeup.

Mi Corazon #138: It's In The Bag...Or Maybe Not


Cap. #138

It’s the Epiphany or Three Kings’ Day in Mexico—the traditional day when Mexican kids receive their Christmas presents.  While the twins mischievously put a fish on their big brother’s pillow, the police chase down Ana’s Three Wise Men thinking they’re hot on the trail of bank robbers who are using the same theme for their disguise [disfrazado].  

When the cops catch up to them in the SUV, Don Fernando tries to explain that they’re on their way to the hospital’s Children’s Ward, but the police don’t believe them because the supposed bag of toys in the trunk turns out to have the Lola costume in it, complete with Ana's bra that the police hold up to them as proof they're lying.

La Gata #108 1/30/15 The Plot Thins, No Thickens...Strike that....Thins...

Indulge me while I rant-cap (from memory...so it's out of order)

Most of the first 30ish minutes were crap and filled with flashbacks (*snort* I think I'm being generous.)
  • Refrito
  • Pablo looks at a picture of Esme the Revolutionary and can't believe he painted it. Neither can I. She didn't go revolutionary until he was in Valle del Bravo getting shot. Whatever continuity crew.
  • Apparently his work induces headaches and flashy flash-backs since he started clutching his head, writhing on the floor and moaning. (I may have done the same.)
  • Lo goes to see Fer. They exchange barbs. She didn't even thank him for not putting her in jail. Rude. Ruder still...she shoots the guy! Ok, she missed...still rude. Fer calls her a black widow. I remember that Meche came running. I'm pretty sure Dam came running, too. Did anyone call the cops? Hell no. Meche just said something about making sure Lo made it out the door.

Mi corazon es tuyo, #137 That's why presents always need to be wrapped



Hello, everybody. I'm going to keep this short, because I'm feeling a little bit under the weather and as I was writing the recap I realized it made much more sense in my head if I cut out some of the continued silliness. I hope I haven't forgotten something important, but feel free to add whatever you think necessary in the comments.

Refrito : Ximena/ Nando/ Edith triangle

Magda/ Angel/ Ana (who has no clue) triangle

Isa & Johnny (who has no clue, either, but loves the attention)

The new stuff:
We begin with a musical number: Sebastian is singing for Sarai, while all his siblings and most of the young cast (+ Manuela) dance – Luz is totally adorable and Nando is totally hot with his normal hair.

Johnny & Isa
She asks him to come to her place because she has a leak … in the bathroom. He is a little bit surprised, but he’s happy to do the job for the money.
Before he arrives, Isa causes a huge mess in the bathroom, by hitting the faucet with a hammer. The maid, Ramona, arrives just in time to witness the whole thing, which Yolanda hilariously calls one of the Chabelaventuras (Isabela’s Adventures).
Johnny arrives and sure enough, Ramona looks smitten with him, too. He gets himself soaked in the bathroom and almost slips on the wet floor. Isabela keeps him from falling, they embrace in the middle of the watery mess, with Yolanda and Ramona looking on. She is totally turned on and Jonny seems to be quite receptive to her charms, too. He turns off the main water source and fixes the faucet. He realizes that Isabela broke it with a hammer and asks her why she did that, but she obviously has no answer. After Johnny leaves, Isabela is furious with Yolanda because the plan didn’t work.

Angel & Marta
Angel explains that he fell in love with Ana at first sight. Marta doesn’t think they’re compatible, but she refrains from saying more, because she knows it would only be her jealousy talking. She knows that he’s a decent, honest, man, which means that he would never interfere in Ana’s already existing relationship. Yes, Angel admits, my love is platonic and it will stay this way. Why not turn to a more accessible woman, then, Marta asks and Angel seems torn and rather tempted, too.

Hasta el Fin del Mundo #116 20140129 A Replay of All of the Scenes that I Thought were Boring the First Time They were Broadcasted

  • Sophia tells Chava that she fired Patrick and rehired Silvana. 
  • Chava can't believe that he's in love with such an idiot!  He tells Sophia that she shouldn't trust Silvana, but he will support Sophia's decision because he's whipped.  Matter of fact, he wants tells her how much her really enjoyed gettin' some.  He was wondering when he could get some again. 
  • Sophia and Chava remember the time that they supposedly made love.  We can't be certain since we didn't get to witness it.  They say that they did, so we have to assume that they did until someone shows us otherwise. 
  • Iker recalls that he almost choked the life out of Greta before he was rudely interrupted by a phone call from his love-sick, psycho sister.  She told him that Sophia hired her back, so he doesn't have to kill Greta after all.  She would have called him sooner, but she had to call Patrick first in order to gloat about getting her job back.

La Gata #107 1-29-15 How Lo Can You Go?



Hey, y’all, I wish I could start snarky and wax wacky but this episode totally peed me off and if you watched, I know you know why and if you didn’t, well, I’m going to try to get right to the point.  First, let me run this other stuff past you:

Damian, Osorio and Fer discuss Lo’s fate.  She will pay but the time has to be right.  Pablo and Esme have to settle their differences and Virginia is going to marry today.  Besides, he wants to talk to Pablo and Mariano first.

Augie is laughing at Lo who is, what’s new, fuming and sputtering about her next venganza.  Augie asks if she’s going to Virginia’s wedding while she laments having lost Pablo.  Augie continues to laugh about the wedding and asks her in between cackles what are they going to say to people when Virginia has black children.

Fer has his talk with Pablo and Mariano, neither of whom can fix their mouths to ask that Lo not pay for her crimes.  This sends them, I guess, cause I wasn’t there, into a flashback fit and I get to see Lo in her clown pants (thanks, Diva).  She has shown herself to be heartless.  Fer will pursue charges against Lo “after the waters have calmed”.  I guess that means after the ho dies.

Que Te Perdona Dios 8: So Far A Few Half-Spoken Truths and Not A Lot of Consequence


Cap # 8

 2 Min. Review:  Feisty Fausto has handed the title to El Ramada over to Mateo .

The New:

The wealthy old maids, the de la Santa Cruz sisters (Efi and Edi)  are chatting with Ramona who is hitting them up for donations—actual materials rather than nasty, dirty money.  Only after reminding them she, and thus, the whole town know about their oversexed proclivities and their needing to untarnish their reps a bit, do the ladies agree to meet her with the charitable goods in tow.

Later in the day, Mat and Abi go for a walk and gossip.  “--Dunno what Uncle Feisty wanted with Diego.  Hope it didn’t have to do with lending me his horse so I could ...win…..”  "--Moving back here?"  "--Nope.  My practice is in Ciudad de Valle."  “—Whachya doing with El Ramada?”  “--Selling it.”  How could he??!! His Unkie Feisty will have a fit, she replies worriedly!!  (Yep and won’t that be fun to watch, sportsfans?)

Hasta el Fin del Mundo on Wednesday, January 28, 2015.

ArmieOnceAgainSexyInGreen is arguing with IrkSomeone but rather calmy and says once she gets better,they're splitting up and that's final.

Sofia runs into IkStian and she walks into Greta's room. Sofia spills it thay she is coming back to the Ripoffery and Greta's face lights up until Sofia drops the ball she isn't following a certain rule of hers and leaves the room.

Armie and Chava are talking about Tavares' interpretation of IrkSomeone's accident and Renzi in general while IrkSomeone is eavesdropping,

Grrrreta is on the phone with PatPrick taking about Sofia's return and Pato's possible but unlikely return. Blah, blah, blah, yada, yada, yada, Pato threatens spilling the beans that Paco Fernandez is Sofia's real dad and Greta has soiled her where-the-sun-don't-shine-orange silk big girl bloomers!

Chava and Armie talk somemore while Irma eavesdrops some more.

Greta tries denying thay Paco is Sofia's dad but Pato is no fool. She begs Pato to have mercy and will beg Sofi for Pato's job back.

Hopefully after changing her bloomers, Greta paces back and forth then talks to he mirror saying Pato cannot tell Sofia the truth

Fausto and Sofia talk about planning an independence party. Sofia says she will give Silvie a second chance since she is least to blame in this brouhaha. Now Fausto and Sofia are talking about her relationsships with silvie, PatPrick and Chava. Apparently SilvieBigButt and SofiBottleBlonde have been besties for years.

Fausto recognizes the nobility of Sofia's heart.

Dani and Alexa talk about Armie's relationships with  Irma and Alexa herself. Some blah-blahing laater and Dani made Alexa cry.

Fausto is checking up on Greta who needs to get her butt to sleep because she has body exams in the morning. She mentions about Pato's blackmailing I thonk.

Alexa and Dani talk about Silvie and Alexacalls Dani too noble-hearted.

Silvie with a glass of wine in one hand dictates to Cristian the next installment of their not that nefarious schemes.

Pato and Renzi are in Pato's apartment which is now the JerkCave.

Dude and Sofia are on the phone talking about saving the Ripoffery's reputation. She hangs up when Greta saunters in ready to vouch for Patricio and make Chava sound like a gold-digging jerk.
