Antes Muerta que Lichita #13 Thursday 10/8/15: The Episode Where Lichita has Finally had Enough!
Alternative Title: Luciana Goes Through the Worst Day of Her life while Viewerville Revels in her setbacks.
Great episode so lets jump right in!
Luciana is somewhat impressed that Lichita figured out her fabulous tastes so quickly. Well Lichita is just soooo grateful towards Luciana for getting her job back. Honestly, she just hopes that sooner rather than later they could become friends. Luciana appears to think very hard but then rejects Lichita flat out. Luciana could never become friends with someone so low on the totem pole Puh-leeze! Luciana wants Lichita to work on gathering all there is to know about the Shoe Campaign (Grimwali??). Lichita sarcastically also offers to freely give her ideas and phrases in this report to which the ever confident Luciana rejects. Puh-leeze! What does someone like Lichita know about an elegant, sophisticated, shoe company like Grimwali(??).

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres, Capitulo 63 Thu 10/8/15: Weasels Get Their Way...Or Do They? (Also: Ivana sees the light?!)
Rewind on…
- Adrian going over Max’s predicament. Clearly I wasn’t paying attention last night, but as Vivi and Anon207 pointed out, the severity of Dan’s injuries weighs heavily on whether or not Max stays in lock up or can pay a fine for the awesome beatdown he gave Dan. If the doctor signs off on Dan’s injuries being worse than they are, then it’s up to Dan to drop the charges. (Meaning Max would be totally screwed.)
- Claudio trying to convince Dr. Medina to tell him what went down with Ursula and Hector’s death. He promises Ursula won’t find out.
- Ivana telling Jacinto to hit the road and Jacinto threatening to kill Dan as revenge. Ivana tells him where Dan is.
- Dan claiming his beatdown was all part of his plan to take Max down. Now he’s got Max and MD over a barrel.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #33 Thu 10/8/15 (Mex 45)
Anyhoodle...the recap. It's not even half-assed today. It's quarter-assed.
The super-duper condensed, hellashelle-patented short version:
- Fi cries about marrying Vito and about Pedro sleeping with Sonia and giving Aitana a ring.
- Pedro tells Fi he loves her and will fight for their love. Then he asks Fi if she will, too. (Um. I'm having flashbacks of the repetitious Gata over here....)
Benito drives Fi to her funereal wedding dress fitting.
Vito is there waiting with Raymundo. Vito talks to Ray about Fi. Is not so sure Fi loves him. The fact that she has not arrived for the fitting speaks volumes. Vito is canceling the wedding and the fitting when Fi finally arrives. It's been almost 12 hours and I'm still shaking my head. Vito is thrilled. This would have been a perfect time for him to keel over from a massive heart attack because of the shock, but the writers didn't see it my way. Vito wants to stay for the fitting, but Fi and the designer convince him that's bad luck.
The back story? Benito spent a lot of time trying to convince Fi not to honor her ridiculous promise. Fi told Benito about seeing Pedro "give" that ring to Aitana. That's why she's marrying Vito. She was crazy to think she could have Pedro. hmmm. The way I'm remembering it, there's very little logic to what she said. I'm forgetting something important, I'm sure. Weigh in patio.
So Pedro asks Benito to do him a solid.

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres Capitulo 62 Wed 10/7/15 Discussion Page - Mortal Kombat!!
UPDATE: Recap courtesy of Vivi in DC. Thank you very much!
- Replay of the brutal, but oh so satisfying beatdown of Daniel by Max. Ursula and Arango pull Dan’s bloody and unconscious body from the fountain, as Ursula wails that Max KILLED him and orders Isidro to call an ambulance. Max, realizing what he might have done and coming to his senses, tries to help Dan, but Ursula shoves him away, screaming at him. Maleny arrives homes and runs up to add to the screeching and blame throwing at Max and MD. Both Max and MD appear in shock, but hold each other close.
- The ambulance and police later arrive. Dan is taken away in a stretcher, and Max is taken away by the police in handcuffs. Maleny keeps berating him and MD all the way to the squad car, but MD and Max don’t hear her. They share and unbroken and meaningful gaze, until his police car is out of sight. MD follows to the police station, where, after finding out the severity of the charges against Max, she calls Claudio.

Antes muerta que Lichita #12 Wednesday 10/7/15
Lichita regains consciousness in the emergency room to her mother Elsa asking how she is. She had gone looking for Lichita because she was late and was the one who found her. Surprise, surprise: Magos is also there. When Elsa saw that everything including the new briefcase had been stolen from Lichita she signed with the lawyer who offered to help them. Lichita asks: so we even owe more money? They sure do. Elsa says that Magos will be taking care of that particular debt but Magos is still insisting on paying for it with her mother's check that they should go and get.
At Augusto's house, he, Beatriz, Dafne and Luciana are all gathered together. He is seated on his red armchair with Beatriz on one side and Dafne on the other. Augusto's new angle to get rid of Luciana is that she might be an impostor. How is he to know??? her passport could even be fake. Luciana cannot understand how he could not trust her. She is a Toledo y Mondragón. Talk to her parents. Do a DNA test. Beatriz jumps to her defense and wins.
Back at the emergency room they are getting ready to leave and Elsa is giving Magos and Lichita the "do not tell your father what is going on because we do not want to upset him" lecture. As a matter of fact he calls Elsa on her cell phone but she does not answer.
Roberto and Gumaro are spending their evening at their "model" apartment and Roberto is actually studying advertising. He has a real book and is learning the definition of certain terms like: spot, copy, branding, etc. He takes a break and quizzes Gumaro on these terms for the fun of it. They love these word games.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #32 Wed 10/7/15 (Mex 43-44)
Oh, good grief, Fi…of course Pedro isn't interested in Aitana! He jokes that he doesn't know who Aitana is. They're back to making plans about when/how to tell everybody. But Sonia has already headed back inside, so have fun with that, kids. Aw, we get so many parting kisses. *sigh* I'm taking that as a bad sign.
Gael and Gianna are talking about his visit with the psychologist. And how maybe it's not so weird to tell a total stranger everything about yourself, 'cause he told Gianna a lot of stuff when they'd barely met. They roll around with each other in the grass, but we are denied any lip action. Bummerrrrrrrrr!

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #30 Mon 10/5/15 (Mex 40) Roxi needs her throat punched, NOW!!
Gigi runs into the kitchen to continue working with Gael on her college registration stuff. The rabid racoon, Roxi, enters the kitchen hissing and spitting and tries to pick a fight about Gigi having been in the car the night Benito took her and drunk Aitana to the club. Since this doesn't get Gigi's goat, she grabs the folders with the college papers, pretends to read them, inserting her own childish venom and eventually rips the whole folder in two. Gianna screams and cries and runs to retrieve them, Gael right behind her.
Here's the other big sigh of relief. Pedro turns down Aitana's proposition to give their lurve another go. She thinks that after all they've been through, they've remade themselves and deserve to try again. Nope! Pedro doesn't have a head for "us", just for himself and the business. Sorry Charlie, only good tuna get to be Star-kissed! Pedro's outta there!
Sonia does a mini freak out over being pregnant and wonders who planted the spawn: Osvaldo or Fabio. Osvaldo enters the bedroom, she lies about being upset and proposes they make a little great grand for Granny. Ooops, coulda really used the tuna line for Sonia! Osvaldo has seen her use her feminine wiles too many times and they don't turn him on. Osvaldo's outta there! Sonia puts the pregnancy test stick under her pillow and texts Fabio: she's got to see him ASAP!

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres #59 Fri 10/2/15: A Break-up And A Make-up
~~Parte 1~~
At Ivana Enterprises, Doris and Maria Dolores have just learned that Ivana has a plan to defend MD in the lawsuit over the burning down of her tailoring shop. The question remains what that might be and might mean. She immediately calls Max to tell him she’s decided to fight the lawsuit rather than settle out of court. Max thinks she’s crazy to do that.
At the same time, Ursula and Arango wrangle a bit more with Josefa the Heifer (I love that nick. That’s a keeper! Muchas Gracias.) as Alma looks on. Josie trash talks about MD and agrees that she’s trash who jumps from bed to bed and the reason Julian came to bash in Daniel’s head was cuz he’s also been sleeping with her. Alma says she’s there to find out the real reason Daniel and Juli fought. She’s worried cuz Maxie is dating MD still. “—Yes, you should be worried,” advises Ho-si. However, Alma informs them all that Claudio assured her that Jul hasn’t been dating MD and that it’s nothing but a piece of gotcha gossip authored by Josefa. Ho-sí says she witnessed the two of them in delicto flagrante herself. Caras de self-righteous horror de Alma and Urrrrrsula.
At Bustamonte Law, Ltd., Julian thinks back to the romantic lunch with MD and their dancing together. Max appears and breaks his reverie. Juli comments that it’s really rough the way life can kick you in the butt in an instant.
Urrrrsula continues lying to Alma how MarDi broke up Ivaca and Danny Boy’s relationship by continuing to pursue him. The reason Dan went to see her again was only because she’d given him an invitation. She shows the mocked up provocative photo on his cell phone. Alma is properly horrified once more. He went to defend MD’s honor when he heard she supposedly had slept with him as well. Max says he knows better than that and so know worries. What he does worry about is that Dan’s done something that he keeps over MD’s head to force her. He asks if Juli might know what that would be. Juli stays cryptic. Giver her a lover’s support.
As Alma leaves, Arango mentions to Urrrsa that Maleny is capable of doing whatever it takes to get at the bottom about her papi’s death. And HOW would he know this. Arango stammers out that it would be the number of times he and she have been asked about it recently, right?

Lo Imperdonable #99 Fri 10/2/15 Hey Hey, We're the Monkeys – The Monkey Writers, that is.
Sure, he's a little awkward, but I'm still glad I picked him. |
Magdalena and Botel are really moving! [I guess those Arthur Murray lessons finally paid off!]
He's so cute. I'd totally go out with him if he asked me. |
Salma and Nicolás are grooving to the beat. You can tell they'd love to get up there and show Margarita what they can do.
Put the camera down, NovelaMaven, or I'll put it where the sun don't shine! Jorge looks on with his permafrost poker face and then turns away. |
