Sueño de amor, Ep. 81 (7.7.16) Life is unfair, while some experience full blown cancer others enjoy full blown romances.
Recycling
Cristina Vélez Valderrama, the firewoman of education test the Gallos to see if they are worth the scholarship. After all, as in bad shape as the Palacios is right now, it will always be way better than Vasconcelos. Margarita encounters the kids on their way out and after greeting them inquires her friend why is she looking so gorgeous.
-Something happened since the last time we saw each other, right? Tell me, tell me... there's that spark in your eyes!
-I have found my daughter! With the help of a pretty handsome man, by the way!
-Yes? Great! And how is she? And how is that bastard of your ex husband?
-IN JAIL! -answers Ricardo from the open door claiming that their chat could be heard all the way to the patio.
Margarita melts herself (se deshace en halagos) in compliments to the Bombón and excuses herself to leave this two tórtolos (love doves) alone. The way you look at each other could make this office get on fire! Never fear my dear, the firewoman is here...
-How do you know Margarita? -asks Cristina
-Oh well, it is a very long story that I better tell you tonight with luxury of details...
-Tonight?
-Yes, I have plans for you... wink!
Esperanza tells Ernesto how worried she is and how bad that is in her condition because Pato HAD TO FINALLY ATTEND SCHOOL and to her bad luck, she will also be tested and she didn't study and she doesn't know the formulas by heart.
Ernesto only hears a buzz and sees Esperanza's lips moving, because his head has its own problems, somebody betrayed him and he needs to tie that end asap.

Yago, #31, Thursday 7/7/16: Buried Hopes
Lucio wanted everything that was Omar's. Well, it's happening now. Not only did he get Omar's girl, Omar's son, and Omar's family - he also got Sara's betrayal and a prison sentence. How sweet! Will he also die in a prison riot? Or will he be befriended by a helpful mobster who's willing to leverage Lucio's rage for his own purposes? I can't wait to find out!
It must be the next day, because Sara is wearing a different dress. Lucio's been sentenced to six years and a fine of 120 "salarios" for his fraud. I don't know how much a "salario" is, but I'll bet that 120 of them add up to more than a slap on the wrist. He stares at Sara in disbelief as he's marched out to the waiting van. She stares right back at him.
As the prison guards shove him around, Lucio reflects that this is especially tough coming from the person to whom he's dedicated the best years of his life. The other inmates welcome him with a ticker-tape parade (okay, a shower of trash) as he's brought to his cell. Lucio muses that betrayal has always been at his side; it has the face of an angel, and the name of a woman. He adds, somewhat redundantly, that its name is Sara. Weeping, Lucio tears Sara's visage off of the family photo he was allowed to keep.

Yago #30. Tuesday July 5, 2016. A Bunch Of People Not Careful What They Wish For
 |
| Sweetie, it's a misunderstanding! Your boyfriend fell on top of me by accident and the unintentional friction unzipped his pants! This is all very unfortunate! |
Hello Patio Pals! We’ll have to make do with a summary until a volunteer takes over this recapping spot.
Fidel’s men encircle Camilo’s men and point their weapons at Camilo. To everyone’s surprise, Selma arrives to the rendezvous. She has a gun and threatens to shoot Camilo for killing her daughter, Fabiana. Camilo wants to have a chat: “You’re on the wrong side! Let me talk to you first!” Selma is determined to kill Camilo but Fidel convinces her to lower her gun and he takes her away. The Mexican standoff is over.

Sueño de amor #80 Wed. July 6, 2016
Here they are: just the facts . . . ;)
So, we will pick up at Ricardo's, with Cristina left breathless after the kiss. They talk about where the kids are and about her ex being in jail. She asks if anything happened to him Ricardo. He assures her that nothing happened. He suggests they call each other "tú" after all they have been through. She isn't too sure about that and prefers "usted" so he does not forget she is his boss. He assures her he won't forget. (She is serious!!!) He just chuckles and walks away. As he turns she notices the blood at the nape of his neck. He had forgotten all about that. She makes him sit down and goes to get first aid items out of the medicine chest so she can treat Ricardo's neck wound. He just sits smiling waiting for her to come back.
At Margarita's, Kristel tells her family all about her wanting to get away from it all by goimg to study abroad in Barcelona if she gets a scholarship at one particular university she has applied to. Mario tries to dissuade her saying that you don't make a big decision like that so quickly. Her mother Silvana says she agrees with Mario but thinks if she leaves she won't be able to get rid of her (as in kill her). The you know what hits the fan when Kristel tells them she could be leaving next week if all goes as planned. She would like to be in her father's wedding though . . .

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #79. Tuesday July 5, 2016. And Now Wee Boys & Girls, Prepare Your Innocent Eyes For A Playful Session Of Torture!
 |
| Thank goodness this is a family show! Can you otherwise imagine the level of gratuitous violence and voyeuristic sadism? |
Hello Patio Pals! We’ll have to make do with a summary until a volunteer takes over this recapping spot.
One of Óscar’s thugs clocks Ricardo on the back of the head with a pistol butt and knocks him out. Ricardo comes to three seconds later and manages to defeat the baddies. Instead of getting his bleeding head wound looked at, Ricardo follows the fleeing thugs to a warehouse, turns off his cellphone after calling Cristina and asking her to take care of his kids, then goes in alone without calling back-up. Logic, common sense and self-preservation collectively committed suicide after this!

Yago #29. Monday July 4, 2016. The Sprinkler Sprinkled, The Hunter Hunted, The Betrayer Betrayed
 |
| Resting Iván Sánchez face |
At a glance
-- To put it politely: This fecal matter just got real!
A closer look
Lucio is arrested outside Casa Guerrero just as he and Matías were preparing to flee the country. Matías is distressed by the scene and keeps tearfully asking: “What’s happening, Papá?”. He bangs on the police car window and pleads with the officers not to take his daddy away because “he didn’t do anything”. Lucio reassures his son that everything is going to be alright. The poor kid continues to cry while Sara tries to console him. Yago observes the scene silently and thinks to himself: “There are moments that haunt you (perseguir) all your life and this is one of them. I know that I’ll never forget the sorrowful expression of Matías when he saw the man he thinks is his father being apprehended. I knew that my revenge would cause collateral damage (daños colaterales) but I never imagined hurting my own son”.

Tres Veces Ana #31: Murderess Most Foul and A Murder Most Fouled
Part 1:
Once again we’re ogling poor Jennifer’s descent sans benefit of parachute as Ana Leticia looks on. (According to The Splat Calculator at a body weight of say, 120 lbs., poor Jennifer’s fall from grace was the equivalent of being hit by a car going approximately 77 mph. ¡QEPD! ) A-Mimi, her feet back on solid ground once more, looks over her handiwork and drives off. Ho. Hum. And meanwhile…..
Mariano’s sexratary, Adriana, reports she’s been unable to reach his fiancée on either her cellular or at the house. It all goes to voice mail/ the recorder.
In Orlando’s hospital room, Evaristo gives our bruised and contused Orly back his cell phone –sans any files having anything to do with Ana Lucía. He warns our scared little suffering shakedown artist in training that the phone can now be traced by Ev’s tracking devices and so he’ll always be able to keep tables on him and his calls. To be certain that Orly keeps mum, he’s got his grandson there as his personal bodyguard.
At the same time, Santiago and the other architect Jen was supposed to meet with arrive at the job site. The guy tells Santi that he understood she was engaged to be married. Santi figures she thought he’d died or deserted her and it makes sense. They turn towards the entrance to the building and see Jen laid and splayed like a rag doll. Santi races over to her. She gains consciousness momentarily. “—It’s you! Marcelo!!” He has a few seconds to register that she knows him as Marcelo Salvaterra with a flashback to the visit to Iñaki’s new digs and his question to SanMarco if that name sounded familiar to him. Well it does now!

Sueno de amor, #78 Hot stuff Ricardo Alegria in hot pursuit of an old lady with a cane
Side note:
It’s the
first time I’m watching the new credits. As of now I believe Espe and Ric are
still endgame, but maybe Osorio wants to do a poll or something similar, to
have the audience « decide » the ending. Ha! Like anyone would care
that much to actually vote…
Part 1
Crazy
Tracy of the Crazy eyes arrives at Anastasia’s house. The baby is crying, so
Ana hands her innocent little bundle to the lunatic who couldn't even love her own kids. Luquita better not
have a long memory, being in the company of these two might scar him for life.
They
start chatting about each others problems. Ana is worried about the DNA test,
Tracy is worried because Ernie tried to kill her. She needs to hide from him,
she’s desperate.
She
further explains how Murillo chickened out at the last moment, shooting into a
pillow and how he had a fake blood make-up kit in his back pocket just in case.
Tracy agreed to give him all the money and jewelry that she had in exchange
for her life. And now she’s dirt poor and has no place to stay. Could Ana help
her ? Please ?

Sueño de amor, Ep. 77 (6.30.16) While Esperanza almost dies, Ricardo lures Cristina to his bedroom (el muerto al pozo y el vivo al gozo).
We start this episode with a visit to the precinct, where Ricardo Alegría Sandoval (ex ''secret'' agent turned teacher) and Cristina Vélez Valderrama (the firewoman of education/life guru to raped girls), are reporting to Gilberto Rentería de la Fuente (tired of seeing Ricardo's mug even in the soup), the assault she suffered in hands of her ex husband Oscar Sousa Villaurrutia (women abuser slash bastard kidnapper). Luckily for her, super duper agent and justice avenger Ricardo Alegría Sandoval was there to save her in the nick of time and now he is getting a call from Baxter Bestertester (who will probably lose his job for doing things he shouldn't be doing), who has seen Abril Sousa Vélez somewhere in Colonia del Valle.
Since the girl is alive and there's no time to lose, the couple that used to hate each other but are now reunited by the circumstances, take off to look for her, leaving the report for another time (that if the writers remember to tie this loose end, if not, they'll forget about it and will never be mentioned like happened to Instituto Vasconcelos. Have you heard from it lately?)
Baxter's pictures show the girl and then an old woman grabbing her. Could it be that Oscar has a nanny to take care of her?

Yago, #27, Wednesday 6/29/16: The Bad Penny
Hi everybody. I was at Best Buy tonight, and I saw Lucio's new smart TV. Or should I say, his ex-TV.
Fidel's having a flashback. A young man is making a quick buck challenging people to a shell game in the park. A young Fidel watches for a while and decides to play. Naturally, he loses. The next customer, a young Camilo, also loses, but does not accept his loss as gracefully as Fidel did. He pulls a knife on the cheater. Fidel comes forward and asks for the honor of the first punch. They smack the guy up, take his money, and run off. Camilo thanks Fidel for his help, and a forevermore friendship is born. Oh and they both have lucky coins. Watch those coins!
In the present, Fidel fingers a coin and tells Yago that his best friend became his worst enemy. That man was Camilo Michell. (Fidel cuts Raul's corpse loose from the chair.) "You have your own revenge to complete," Yago acknowledges. "It's time to begin," Fidel says, stuffing the coin into the dead man's pocket.

Tres Veces Ana - Episode 29 - Evil plans and tearful good-byes
Mariano’s future love interest (we can only assume based on
the supposed amount of dislike being thrown around) Viviana is having lunch
with Julietta, who happens to be Daniel’s mother. Julietta laments her son is
not the same ever since falling in love with Ana Leticia. They spend some time
discussing her tragic fate of losing her husband after just one year and sounds
like in light of that Julietta is giving her a break. Viviana thinks that
perhaps Daniel might have another chance with Ana Le.
