Sueño de Amor (SdA) #103. Tuesday August 9, 2016. Lies That Build You Up And Truths That Tear You Down

With this red string I thee project to wed. Red for love. Red for heart. Red for ready to commit to you. Red for rededicating my life to you. Red for red-herring.

Hello Patio Pals! I’m away on holiday until August 22. Mini-recaps for Monday and Tuesday are scheduled to post the next day at 6 am EDT. Be well and see you soon, Sueñolandia dwellers! 

Ernesto tells Anastasia they need to talk about alimony and child support (pensión alimenticia). She says she doesn't want it or the apartment. Ernesto reminds her that Baby Luca is his son and a De la Colina. Ernesto wants his baby to have the best in life, live comfortably, go to the best schools and never want for anything.

Yago #49 Bombs are dropping all over the place, (not really)

Sorry it took so long. Recapping this TN is very time consuming because there is so much detail to it. Anyway, here you go.

We start off at Lucio’s office with Abel telling Lucio that Abel has joined forces with Yago now and he wants Lucio to do it also, he will bring him there dead or alive.  With sweat dripping off of his face profusely cuz it’s Mexico City and no one needs to wear a heavy jacket anytime of the year to keep warm, he opens it and show Lucio the bomb he’s wearing on his chest. 

Flashback to Ambar as a 10 year old, crying and hungry, she misses Sara, Damian trying to calm her down. He tells her that Sara abandoned them. Damian admits to missing her too. He also admits that Sara was his favorite, wishing that Ambar was instead, things would have been much easier if she were. 
Current day, Damian puts flowers on Ambar’s grave.

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #102. Monday August 8, 2016. Ricardo The Lionheart Has Nothing On This Ricardo!

Students, faculty, cancer-ridden ex-fiancée: I cancelled your coffee break and gathered you in this auditorium to gloat about my shacking up with this beautiful, voluptuous and definitely cancer-free blonde!

Hello Patio Pals! I’m away on holiday until August 22. Mini-recaps for Monday and Tuesday are scheduled to post the next day at 6 am EDT. Be well and see you soon, Sueñolandia dwellers! 

Esperanza has a lot of fever due to the cancer virotherapy. The little inspirational board that hangs in her bedroom says: “After a brief dream, to wake up eternally”. Juaréver that means. Pato and Pedro take turns in taking care of their mother.

Tres Veces Ana # 60 and 61 - In which Ana Le settles many of her debts



(Some scene consolidation below, don’t be confused) 

Skipping the rehash and going straight to the new material, because far be it from me to deprive you all of the episode that might just make you wish you could kick some of these characters in a shin. No finger pointing though (Llora). 

So we ended on Facundo confusing Ana Lu for Ana Leticia. Before Santicelo could collect his split personality brain cells and think up an excuse, Ana Lu gave him a huge break by assuming that Facundo had just mistaken Leticia with Lucia, since he probably just heard it for the first time yesteday! So she corrected him and invited him for coffee. Santi of course played along, and Facundo – quick thinking on his feet (he must have had a lot of time to do crossword puzzles and Sudoku in his cave) – did as well.
(Side note – what is happening to Ana Lu’s blouse there? Is it borrowed from Ana Le?)

Tres Veces Ana #49/54: Who Killed G.R.? And Who The Heck Is Ana Leticia?


Parte 1~

While Mariano is suffering guilt pangs for having fooled around with Valentin Padilla’s exploitative ex, Facundo is getting the second biggest shock of his life in seeing that his dead and buried son is no longer dead and buried, but very much alive.  Unfortunately, Santiago wants nothing to do with him or the past life he represents as Marcelo Salvaterra’s father.  (And, what a debby-downer!  A recluse ruminating in refuse. Santi can't help but wrinkle his nose in disgust.)

Facundo may be his father but he’s no father figure.  SanMarco cannot remember the man and seeing him does not arouse feeling number one in him.  He knows enough about Marcelo Salvaterra to know he doesn’t want to be that man or have any part of his life as his any longer.  Remedios was Santi’s biggest help, his biggest fan, and his only reason for having recovered. That won’t stop Facundo from trying to rescue him from his amnesia, and he tells him as much. 

Ramiro visits Mariano at The Realty Place and tells him he wants the truth about Gina’s death.

Sueno de amor, #101, Friday Alive! Alive!

Hello, everybody!
As Nandicta is away for a much needed break, I'll be in charge of Fridays for a while and so far I'm doing a terrible job. I just got back from my vacation, so I haven't had the chance to unpack, watch the show or catch up with the last week of recaps. So, I have no clue what happened yesterday, except to say that ADRIAN IS ALIVE (which I found out from Univision's site).
If you, guys, are kind enough to share a few of last night's happenings, I'll add them here, to give those who can't watch at the moment more details.  I'll do the same, if I get the chance to watch before the next show airs.

Later edit, courtesy of Pablo (THANK YOU, Pablo, you rock!)

Tres Veces Ana #56 and 57 - The Amnesiac of the Baskervilles



Hi all -- Sneaky is unable to recap for us today, so I am providing a short summary from memory below and if anybody has more details, please add in comments and I will update the main post later. Otherwise, discuss away!

Quite a bit of movement this episode.

First, as we suspected Ana Le is trying to weasel her way out of the predicament she created by accepting Ramiro’s advances. Nobody wants to hear her out though, except our gullible Llora. Before deciding to bare her lying soul, Ana Le goes into a rage attack and slaps Llora. Realizing that, should Llora talk about this, Ana Le will never get out of the doghouse, our scheming murderess asks Llora to keep the slap quiet from the family. After all, she – Ana Le – is going through so much. Marcelo is really alive and Ramiro knew this all along, so Ana Le only agreed to this relationship to get closer to Marcelo, who faked his death and is in hiding. Llora, of course, cannot believe this. She is instructed by Ana Le to go talk to Ramiro and say nothing to anybody else. So the joy of Llora’s tears and probably yet another break up with Ramiro is awaiting us in one of the next few episodes.

Sueño de amor, Ep. 100 (8.4.16) Unplanned, unwanted, rejected, ugly, abused, alcoholic, raped, neglected, kidnapped, dead.

Whoope! We made it to 100th! 30 more to go!

The refried made us watch again the agony of Erny and the morbid curiosity of Espy while they both saw Kracy giving water to Adrián. 

From there Erny went to see Ricardo with the purpose of terminate him. Only way to save his own son. You know that although Baxter has tracked Adrián down, Ernesto is desperate to get him back and gives in to Kracy's demands, trying to kill Richerd. But Ricardo, who can sell you an umbrella on a rainy day using his rhetoric, convinces Erny that Kracy is so crazy that she wont fulfill her promise after he is dead, so he is spared, and just in the heat of the argument, Cristina Vélez Valderrama (or CVV for short) arrives and tackles Erny down, making him lose his gun. Sorry, this was part of the conditions and I would do anything for my son (except go visit him in the rehab center).
I would even give my life for his. Now.

Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 24 (Aug 1, 2016) 2nd Half

So, two of our bad guys are locked up in a prison, not unlike the one Fer was in. She’s feeling sorry for Luis, who insists on calling her Luisa, after himself, because she knows what prisons are like. Carlos and many on the Caray Patio would do not agree, after all the maldad he’s caused, and which Carlos keeps enumerating. Luis deserves to be where he is and he deserves to get the best treatment from Apolinaro and his gang.

Luis, on the other hand, was feeling great as he made arrangements to flee the country, leaving this daughter he’s been fighting for, for weeks, in order to avoid prison. With glee he believes he’s off to Taiwan holding onto a cheap little necklace (not unlike the one Felipe wanted to give Fer at the beginning of this story). Taiwan is pretty far away to try to recoup a daughter he didn't know he had for 20 years and to whom he’s caused nothing but pain and sorrow. How nice the getaway was foiled by the hardworking police force.

Of course, Luis wouldn’t be where he is today had Carlos not been able to recoup the box of documents proving that Luis had ruined his family’s bank. So much for listening at doors and overhearing conversations—now I’m all for it.

Luis is last seen vowing to get out of prison one way or another and give Fer the necklace. When it is taken from him by other prisoners, his one-track mind focuses on the necklace rather than thinking about becoming a model prisoner and serving his time.

It seems to me that Luis is feeling sorry enough for himself than for Fer to feel sorry for him, too. What will Fernanda do about her feelings for Luis? We can only wait and see.

Yago #47, Wednesday August 4, 2016: Yago vs. Omar

Bullet points:

- Lucio gets Damian out of jail, much to the horror of Sara and Mati.

- Julia accepts Selma as her mama. (Fidel will have to wait a little longer.)

- Melina tells Yago she doesn't want any more to do with him. He can come back when he's ready to be Omar.

- Lucio looks for Abel at Camilo's request, but is unable to find him. Also, Lucio's been doing coke. Oh yeah, that'll totally help!

- Yago agrees to let Jimena, the pushy artist, exhibit her art in his bar. He offers her a wall for a new mural.

- There's some discussion about what to do with Abel. Also, Team Fidel/Yago agree to target Hernan next.

- Camilo impresses Mati and woos Sara. (Sara lets Camilo know that Lucio isn't Mati's biological father.) The flirtation leads to a poker game in which Sara is the prize. Sara throws the game, but when it's time to pay up, it's not clear if she can go through with it...

Tres Veces Ana #54 and 55 - A long lead up to an explosive reveal - the evil queen is banished from the kingdom, but keeps her head…for now



We start with a couple of Llora/Ana Le and Ramiro/Santiago repeat moments. (Aren't there suddenly more repeat scenes in these double episodes at the beginning?)

Marcelo gave a very firm and convincing talk to Mariano’s lawyer friend Samuel. Marcelo will protect friends and destroy his enemies and Samuel better pick a side and fast. Mousy Samuel agrees he is better off on Marcelo’s good side. In that case, Marcelo instructs him to give him the key to the security deposit box and transfer all the money Samuel laundered abroad to Marcelo under the alias they’ve used previously. Samuel will also indeed represent Ana Le in the divorce. Marcelo will get a different lawyer. Samuel will make sure things don’t go Ana Le’s way in this divorce and that Marcelo quickly regains his freedom. Samuel is not to talk to Santiago Garcia. To him Santiago Garcia does not exist. Seems there are a lot of dirty deeds between these two, as Samuel did not even try to argue.

Sueño de amor #99 Wednesday 8/3/16

So, here we are with our story ready to pick up right after Ricardo and Cristina reaffirm their love for each other and kiss.

At home, Anya is having a nightmare of sorts where all of her patients are gone and Pedro appears as a doctor trying to convince her that love can also be a profession (just like medicine) by having her listen to his accelerated heart beat which he says she caused. She awakens just as they are about to kiss and laughs at herself for being so crazy and seeing Pedro as a doctor in her dream.

At the Guerrero's, Pedro tucks his mother Esperanza into bed. They say good night and he turns out the light.

Yago #46: The Perfect Weapon

Full recap is up now. Enjoy!

Flashback: Abel comes to Casa Guerrero in the middle of the night, beat up and bleeding after getting in yet another fight. Omar lets him in and takes him upstairs, trying not to wake the rest of the family, but Melina wakes anyway. She sends Omar for the medical kit to tend to Abel’s wounds, and gently warns Abel to stop getting into these fights. He’s going to get himself killed one day. He has to learn to control himself. She assures him she’s concerned about him and that he’s family. Abel is touched, and tells her what his grandmother told him—that he’s the family black sheep and a lost soul. Melina tells him, “Your grandmother doesn’t know what a big heart you have. And I don’t think you do either.”

Abel voiceover: “Omar’s family healed my old wounds. Ones I never thought were possible to heal. They believed in me, and made me believe that I wasn’t the monster that everyone else thought I was. But they were mistaken. The monster was only sleeping.”

Present day: Abel meets Hernan in an abandoned warehouse, prepared to follow Camilo’s orders and interrogate someone. Abel stops cold when he sees the someone is a terrified Melina. Abel tries to get out of it and asks Hernan to let her go. He points out to Hernan that he knows the lady. Hernan, the Killing Machine, doesn’t give a damn. Abel’s there to get info out of the old lady, by any means necessary. Abel is more than reluctant, remembering how kind Melina has always been to him.

Tres Veces Ana #52 and #53 - FlashBack To The Future

(All flashbacks discussed will be in italics)

Leonora has a flashback to a conversation with Facundo (aka Funky Dodo):
Funky says he plans to go back to Costa Paraiso. He asks her for forgiveness. She forgives & thanks him for a beautiful experience. Not wanting it to end, he asks her to go with him. He feels the family denied her the life she deserves, one that he'd offer her as his woman. She claims she had the chance, but was never brave enough to reach for happiness & feels she doesn't deserve it. He says it's her life, but he wants to thank her for helping him discover a heart that still beats. But due to her resistance, he can't resolve the sadness she feels inside. She nods and they bid each other goodbye.

Ana Let discovers her as he leaves. She confronts Leonora about her involvement with her FIL (father-in-law) and tells her she should be ashamed of herself.

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #98. Tuesday August 2, 2016. Adrián In A Gorilla Cage, Ernesto In Debt to His Rival And Maggie In Suegra Hell!

Oh hell no! I didn't invest months of cougaring to land this  young thang only to have his mom sleep in our bed!

Hello Patio Pals! I’m away on holiday until August 22. Mini-recaps for Monday and Tuesday are scheduled to post the next day at 6 am EDT. Be well and see you soon, Sueñolandia dwellers! 

Montserrat Izquierdo viuda del Pozo, mother of Félix Tiburcio del Pozo is visiting from Tabasco (actual Tabasco, not the Tabasco where we exile telenovela characters). She is a mustached woman whose vestimentary inspirations are Madonna in “Like A Virgin” and Hyacinth Bucket from the BBC’s “Keeping Up Appearances”. She plans to live at Casa Manzanares for the next 2 to 24 months. She is overbearing, haughty, meddlesome and nit-picky. She laughs like a hyperactive hyena, eats like a medieval serf during famine and relishes mocking Margarita for her advanced age.

Yago #45 More cold blooded killing

I don't know how to make this any shorter, there is too much information I would be leaving out in order to do so. 

We start with a flashback from Omar, he’s about 10, Jonas walks in on Omar in the midst of a huge mess in his workshop, yelling at Omar, how he could do such a thing. Omar denies culpability, but his father doesn’t believe his denials. They go outside, Jonas asks if it wasn’t Omar, who did it? Omar sees a smirking Lucio in the distance, but like a good friend, Omar takes the fall for him. 
Yago is heard saying that there’s nothing worse than be accused of something you didn’t do. Poor Omar has had a lot of that in his life. And the latest is from Matias accusing Yago of killing Ambar. And just like when Jonas wouldn’t believe in the goodness of Omar and Omar’s denials, Jonas is repeating it with Yago, and told Yago to leave. 

Well, even though Julia left her conversation with Katia in a huff, saying she didn’t want to have anything to do with Selma and Fidel, she now is taking the time to read the letter Selma wrote to her dead daughter Fabiana, the letter that  Katia snuck from Selma’s book and then gave to Julia. It says:
