Diego’s Mad Mama has Julio tied to a chair and blindfolded, and Isabel drugged half out of her mind and hog tied to the bed in her lair.

Sueño de amor #46 Wednesday 5/11/16

So, here we go with a little bit of this and a little bit of that.

Pato is on the street and Anastasia approaches her. They end up on a bus where Anastasia wants Pato to get a message to Ernesto for her. She needs his help because she has no money: nothing. So far he has refused to give her anything. Anastasia makes sure that Pato sees a  gun in her handbag. Maybe Ernesto needs someone he loves to be in danger . . . Anastasia sure hopes that Patricia gives Ernesto the message. After getting off the bus, Anastasia pretends to shoot Pato through the bus window with her finger. Pato is left creeped out and alone on the bus.

At the hospital, the doctor is filling in Viviana and Luca about the severity of Adrián's problem. Luca and the doctor think that Adrián needs to go inpatient at a rehab center. Viviana is not too sure. Later at home, Ernesto agrees Adrián needs to be admitted to the rehab center. Adrián sees it as if they are throwing him away. Luca and Ernesto do their best to talk him into it. Adrián hysterical makes all sort of promises not to drink. Viviana is afraid they will mistreat Adrián and promises to take care of him rather than send him off to that terrible place. Ernesto sees Vivana as just stupid but then he has to stay quiet because it is all his fault anyway. Luca tries to convince Viviana and Adrián that Adrián's promises mean absolutely nothing. Seems to be enough blame to spread around.

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #45. Tuesday May 10, 2016. Misery Loves Company.

Hello Patio Pals! We’ll have to make do with a quick summary until a volunteer takes over this recapping spot. 

Adrián is in hospital with alcohol poisoning (congestión alcohólica). His pity party for one is getting old. Everything that happens to him is everybody’s fault but his own. He treats both Estrella and Salma like crap when they visit him at hospital. That should teach them to care. 

In Acapulco, Esperanza and Ricardo do a lame copy of the “From Here To Eternity” kissing-on-the-beach sequence. Agent Alegría informs his starry-eyed fiancée that he’ll resign as soon as he catches La Sombra. Wouldn’t an immediate resignation be more conducive to La Sombra’s prompt capture?

Sad, salty tears: Damian lives Yago #7 05/10/2016

This won't be my best recap but that's because in a few minutes my office computer is going "bye, bye" and I'm finally getting a new one!

  • Melina, does not get run over! She was shaken up but is in good health. she confesses everything to Jonas-including the fact that she pawned her wedding ring to get bus fare to see the shaman.
  • Jonas goes to Lucio for help in getting even with the shaman, Lucio and his goons pay the shaman a visit and trash his place- but wait for it...the shaman has Lucio's number and tells him that he (Lucio) may be able to fool everyone else, but that he can't fool him and that he knows Lucio is behind the suffering of Melina's son. Ooooooh snap!
  • Damian, Sara's and Ambar's dad makes his return. Sara and Lucio pretend not to know him but Teo and Katia are on the case and tell Yago that Damian is someone known to both Sara and Lucio, this will be important later.
  • We get a flashback scene where we see just how much of a conman Damian is, he catches someone's attention and is offered the casino heist job- so he never did it for Ambar, he was hired by someone else to do the job!

El Hotel de los Secretos #73, 5/10/16: You Want Macho? Just Dial Hotheads Are Us

Parte 1
All are totally upset by the fact that Andres has been unjustly dragged off to jail for the missing Belen’s supposed murder.  (El bocazota ése, with that size 13 shoe of his, has managed to insert same with a perfect fit).  Julio and Detective Ayala are wise that the judge is in cahoots with Somebody.  Julio sees red and blames Diego for Isabela’s kidnapping.  Why?  I, frankly, am not sure.  They figure that he’s hiding a dark, dark pasado since he really comes from Colombia and was on the lam for some shady deal that got him in trouble with The Law and over which Romulo and he apparently argued –and which may be the reason he might have administered the deadly arsenic to the old dude? And, perhaps it got the others in Romulo’s secret society to want to off Diego also, or at least to accuse his beloved of being an adulteress.  Julio wants to head off to strangle and mangle El Diablo de Diego just because, because if it hadn’t been for that devilish brute his sister wouldn’t be dead and his beloved wouldn’t have been raped!!  However, Ayala tells him no!  “--Use some common sense! Killing   serves not the Greater Good.”  This gets Julio thinking with the common sense part of his brain…maybe.

Yago #6. Monday May 9, 2016. Discussion Page + Highlights By Julie And Vivi.

Hello Patio Pals! We’ll have to make do with a discussion page until a volunteer takes over this recapping spot. 

Two of our Patio regulars kindly contributed this impromptu recap. Many thanks to both!

Highlights by Julie:

Katia gets her hands on Ambar's medical records and Yago finds out that Ambar was admitted to the hospital just days before (or after?) the heist and questions if it's a coincidence. (duh) 

Sara recalls that the hospital threatened to kick Ambar out because Sara's account was NSF. Turns out Sara's father kept her share as well as his own because his own welfare was more important to him than Ambar's. Lucio offered to pay Ambar's hospital bill himself.

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #44. Monday May 9, 2016. The One Where Nobody Calls The Police.

At a glance

-- Aranza gets kidnapped, beaten and raped because Osorio is running out of cheap ploys to raise the ratings of this train wreck.
-- Adrián runs away from home and spends the night drinking on a pile of garbage.
-- Nobody has the presence of mind to call the cops! 

A closer look 

In their luxury suite in Acapulco, Esperanza and Ricardo mingle limbs in slo-mo and fall asleep in a pillowless diagonal embrace. 

Back in Mexico City, Kristel tells Pedro that Salma’s pregnancy brought their family together. Silver linings and whatnot. However, Kristel doesn’t know where her witch of a mother moved out to. Pedro informs her that her mom was the one who sent the CCTV tape that got him locked up in the holding cells (separos) of the police station. However, he is still alive and kicking (vivito y coleando), so no harm no foul. Pedro receives the sympathy he was fishing for in the form of a kiss. A kiss for which he’ll get admonished, at some point, by Princess Confundida

El Hotel de los Secretos #72, 5/9/16: Mommy-Suegra Dearest

Diego's mother has a mild face, but the tight bun in her hair and the black satin dress give her a severe air. The collar that looks like a chain of medium-sized doilies adds to the incongruity. She tells Isabel that she had Isa nabbed in order to "save" her and Diego. Diego's been writing letters to his mommy. He's treated Isa badly and it's not her fault. He's a troubled boy. During her speech, she prepares a mixture of medicines in a small bottle. She assures Isabel, "don't worry, you'll learn to love my Diego and all will be well. He won't make the same mistakes again!"

Isabel struggles to get up, but is easily knocked over. "My Diego should have been a writer," his mother says. "You're exactly as he described you." She administers another dose with the mask and says that a little morphine and scopolamine will help Isabel "sleep better."

El Hotel de los Secretos #71, 5/6/16: Watching The People Get Lairy Is Not Very Pretty I Tell Thee!

What do you mean there are only 9 episodes left?
At a glance

A closer look

After the hullabaloo of Diego’s rampage and Isabel’s abduction, Ayala instructs his men to take the injured Julio away. Diego comes to and asks about Isabel. Ayala informs him that his wife has been kidnapped. How could this happen if Diego himself shot his wife’s lover in the leg? Ayala denies that anybody got shot. No blood, no witnesses, no case. Diego flips out and threatens to denounce Isabel for adultery.

Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 12 (May 9, 2016) First Half


NOTE to FOLLOWERS on our CAMINO
We have been asked by BlogMom to post twice a week. Seeing as we are about to fall off the front page, the recap for EPISODE #52 for Friday, May 6 is being posted here. Comments are most welcome.

We pick up the conversation between Dr. Javier and Fernanda where he left off in the prior episode. He was wondering why Carlos is trying so hard to get Fer to come back to him. He should be ashamed to face her after what he did to her. Fer explains that they thought Isabela was pregnant and Carlos didn’t want to leave her, but the pregnancy was all a lie.

Carlos now wants Fer to forgive him so they can be together again. Dr. Jay wants to know if she wants to. She says yes, he’s the love of her life, but she can’t just now because she doesn’t trust him. She’s lost her confidence in him. Jay doesn’t think he’s likely to deceive her again, but Fer says one never knows and then repeats the story of her mother keeping the secret for 19 years that she’s the daughter of another man and Pedro never knew that [but of course he does] and that Carlos’ mother just found out her husband has a mistress. She doesn’t want that for herself, living with distrust. She leaves him, pondering.

Carlos finds out from Dr. Marcos that someone named Isabela was nosing around and told Javier that she was Carlos’ novia. Carlos has to explain that he and Isy were novios at one time in the past, but he ended it. He doesn’t know why she’s going around telling people she’s still his novia. Marcos thanks him for clearing that up. Carlos assures him he loves Fernanda, even though they’ve had a quarrel.

El Hotel de los Secretos #70, 5/5/16: Diego Goes Ape ****

Ok so the universe hates me today, I've been trying to watch the episode but something is wrong either with my phone or the APP I'm using, and my freaking Kindle won't charge! I'll do my best to have a recap up- even if it's just bullet points. I apologize for the delay. Question for anyone else using the Univision APP- are you having issues trying to watch shows on it?

Yago #4. Thursday May 5, 2016. A Blast To The Past

This recap is brought to you by our recapper and Patio regular, CountxAlacran. Enjoy!

(Some scenes were merged) 

Short version: 
  • Naked Ivan Sanchez!  
  • Repeat of the previous scenes (Ambar dances with Yago, Lucio & Sara come to the island, Bruno promises Melina to reopen his old investigation regarding Omar. 
  • We get to see Abel’s point of view such as his bronca with the scratched car (He protected Omar from a bully) that ended in Abel reluctantly accepting Lucio’s offer resulting in Abel killing a man and betraying his supposed brother. In the robbery Abel dropped the gun but it was far too late for Abel to fix his mistakes because it had Omar’s fingerprints all over it. 
  • Yago & Ambar bond further as he invites them to his yacht despite Abel’s hidden rage and failed attempt of a nice date (Yago is unsure if using Ambar for revenge would be a great thing). Abel changes his mind about trusting Yago but Lucio pays him no attention.

Sueño de amor, Ep. 42 (5.5.2016) From teacher warrior spinner hope... to cliché weepy nosy counselor!

¡Feliz 5 de mayo!

Bienvenidos al mundo del revés, donde nada el pájaro y vuela el pez

Adrián and his terrible, horrible, no good, very bad life 
Adrián was hiding behind the boxes full of the most expensive glassware from around the world talking with Estrella on the phone, and she broke up with him for the ''N'' time. Then he is showered in insults because he is un ''estuche de monerías tonterías'' and Ernesto lists his ''achievements'': He likes K-pop spontaneous musical numbers, he had to repeat school year and was demoted to attend the poor one across the street, he is a drunk and a minor impregnated herself while he was drowned drunk. Sadly, that was the saddest thing and none of the above, because during the impregnation, he was not even aware and thus didn't enjoyed it! At least Salma can say that those 45 seconds of ''pleasure'' will ruin her whole life, but what about Adrián? 
Los De la Colina discuss abortion vs. adoption, and seem not to agree on any of them.
