A Que No Me Dejas (AQNMD) #32. Tuesday October 25, 2016. Discussion Page + Episode Highlights

Hiya Patio Pals! It doesn’t look like we’ll be getting a recap from Princess Juju today, so here’s a space for those of you who wish to discuss Tuesday’s episode. I haven’t watched it yet and won’t be able to do so right now because it’s 1 am my time. Apologies to all. If any of you is able to volunteer some episode highlights that’d be greatly appreciated. Cheers, everyone. Good night.


Our friend Alfredo, a.k.a Superalfie, has kindly provided the following highlights:


-- Gonzalo talked to Eulate Morales, the crooked bank guy, about giving the documents to Julieta and threatened him with jail time because he suggested he deposited the money offshore in the original “fraud”.


-- Leonel convinced Nuria not to be too hard on The Gonz about his double life. It is best to take her father’s side because it would benefit her and Leonel in their rise to power within the hotel consortium.

Vino el Amor -- Gran Estreno 10/25/2016 Chapter 1: Divide and Destroy



Chapter 1: Divide and Destroy


On a beautiful sunny afternoon in the vast wine country that is southern California two kids raced through the paths of the vineyard, promising that the later one at the finish line buys the candy. At another spot in the vineyard the girl's father stacked boxes of red grapes while her mother and brother came out to talk to him about going somewhere the next afternoon.


Marcos was a tall man in his forties with a direct and honest face. His fair complexion and dark hair insured his attractiveness and complemented his ease with people. His wife Marta was fairer still, with dark golden hair. They were a happy couple and good parents to Luciana and León. The boy was about eight years old, playful and intelligent.

A Que No Me Dejas (AQNMD) #31. Monday October 24, 2016. Papá Don’t P...Reach For The Gun!


(Cara de) Well, this explains the cray-cray!

At a glance


-- Adrián’s sainted Pops was never a saint! Bazinga!

-- Mr. Peanut Butter & Slime learns that he has been officially designated as Nuria’s baby daddy! Bazinga!


A closer look


At the beach of silent love and thwarted reconciliation, Paulina had a full two minutes to tell Adrián that she is carrying his unibrow baby but she squandered the precious time talking about the kiss she shared with Camilo and “omitted” to mention. Adrián doesn’t want to hear her anymore: You are dead to me! Shouting out: “I’m pregnant!” would’ve shut Adrián right up but it’s more aesthetically-pleasing to squeeze out a few pretty tears by the seashore while an adorable blond cherub consoles you.

Tres Veces Ana - # 122 - El Gran Final! Or they packed their overstuffed suitcases hastily and lived happily ever after!

Alas, all good (albeit slightly drawn out and convoluted at times) things must come to an end. Julie and I tag-teamed this one and it's below in two installments.

For my part I want to say that it has been an absolute pleasure to recap alongside such a wonderful talented team, and discuss along with such bright, insightful, imaginative and entertaining group of folks. You guys are the best. Thank you so much for making this a fabulous fantastic ride!


Part I (Julie) 


Everyone's come home from Facundo's cabin. AnaLet is missing. Ernestina is worried, but doesn't want them to keep anything from her.


Up in AnaLet's room, Leonor shows Mariano the blood-soaked dress (bosom bandage, per Jardinera) that AnaLet left behind. Just then, Mariano receives word that Claudia... "what?" Mariano asks his lawyer Samuel.


Ghoulieta receives a large envelope with a note from Inaki: "Here is the truth about the death of your son, Daniel." It's a tablet, with Inaki's confession ready to play. Ghoul and Viridiana watch, horrified, as Inaki says he killed Daniel out of spite for all that Daniel had and Inaki didn't.

A que no me dejas Episode 30 (10.21.16) Sweet lies (are made of this), everybody's looking for something, nobody looks for the truth...

Happy birthday to me! (tomorrow)

Nuria looks forward to nail Leonel as her baby's father
After Inés heart attack Nuria's wedding could be in danger, but she can not afford that or the baby could be born after just 4 months after the ceremony and no baby, as premature as can be, has ever born that soon after signing up the nuptial contract.

Gonzalo looks for forgiveness
After Inés heart attack, Gonzalo talks to Dr Flowers because he wants to see her, but she is still too upset weak to see him. The doctor recommends she is left alone, but still, he will see if something can be arranged. Gimme just 1 minute- Gonzalo asks - sure, what will you do with the 50 seconds left?

in that precise moment, Raquel comes out from Inés room, and even when Gonzalo asks her about his wife, she punished him with the whip of her indifference and doesn't reply. It is like he is invisible. Ouch!

A Que No Me Dejas #29 - Thursday October 20, 2016. Gonz gets the freeze, Leo is a sleaze.


Al tells Gonz he warned him so many times.  Gonz tearful says he doesn't want to lose Ines. He can't lose Ines.  Al says he doesn't want to discourage Gonz but just like with Pau, he doesn't see how Ines will forgive him.  Gonz says he doesn't know what he'll have to do to get it, but he won't give up until Ines forgives him, but it may be too late as we see two doctors by Ines bedside, as they look over her medical charts, it appears to be grave news.  Meanwhile Gonz tells Al he needs to tell someone about this feeling that is burning him alive.  Al tells him to unburden (desahogate) himself.  Gonz confesses that he told Monica that Ines, was dying. Al shocked as why?  Gonz says because he was stupid and didn't want his lover to leave him.

Leo warns Nuria, that she needs to be careful about making bigger problems for herself. Nuria has no desire to side with her father after what he did, but Leo says now with all of his problems the Gonz isn't the big baddie he once was the other family is out of the bag, but now her Dad is pissed because he knows she (Nuria) is the one that set this in motion. Nuria thinks it's going to pass, but Leo thinks she shouldn't wait.  She needs to go seek her father out and let him know that in spite of everything thing, she will be by his side and support him.  Nuria doesn't know how Leo expects her to do that.

Tres Veces Ana # 120

Discussion page and Sneaky's recap tomorrow

Sneaky's recap posted below!

Sole and Leonore talk - Upshot, since Sole is blood Leonore has totes forgiven her.

Everybody is gussied up for Llora's thing and Abue gives Leonore a sparkly necklace and earrings.
The older gals send TioM upstairs to light a fire under BadAna and  when he knocks and asks is she decent she strips down to her teddy before she trills come in  to his immense discomfort. And then she shimmies back into her little black dress as he tries not to watch, and makes him zipper up while she makes some innapropriate remarks about what a hottie he is. This performance causes him to try to explain to her that there are different kinds of love and they shouldn't  confuse them, but BadAna isn't confused one little bit. She knows who she's in love with, the man she puts above all others. Marcelo, tioM guesses. Noo she usta be into him but its totes over now, he's not the man she loves more than herself, and she winds herself ever tighter around TioM inching closer and closer to his lips, do ya wanna know who it is? it's... it's...

A Que No Me Dejas #28 - ALL The Cats Are Out of ALL The Bags

Ines wants Elisa to leave. She’s not feeling well but Elisa keeps egging her on about how Gonzalo lied about divorcing Ines and marrying Monica and went so far as lying about her health. Ines wants Elisa to leave and she finally agrees. As she is leaving, Paulina comes in and asks what she’s doing there. Suddenly, Ines faints and hits the ground. Paulina goes to help her and Elisa runs out.

Adrian asks who came by and Odette tells him it was Paulina. He asks what she wanted and she tells she doesn’t know but it doesn’t do him good to see her. Adrian tells her she’s reminding her of his sister: she’s obsessive about him. Adrian tells her to never again decide for him or meddle in his life. He leaves, bothered by her actions.

The doctor tells Julieta that if she goes to therapy and behaves well she can get out faster. Julieta finally agrees and then the doctor asks what happened with her father…Julieta tells that her father’s death caused her great pain. He left her and Adrian alone…he stopped living after he lost all his money.

In his office, Adrian questions why Paulina came. He gives her a call but hangs up immediately. He thinks she’s with Camilo.

In Gonzalo’s office, Nuria is fuming. He comes in and she tells him that she knows everything about his affair and demands he force Monica and the kids to leave Puerto Esperanza. Gonzalo tells her to mind her own business but Nuria warns him that if he doesn’t listen to her she will tell her mom everything and tell Paulina he put Adrian in jail. She’s not willing to share any of her inheritance with them. She storms out afterward.

Tres Veces Ana # 119 - Twilight zone of Anas - sudden time jumps and radical opinion shifts!

Is everyone ready? Set...Go! And our star of the show deserves an extra collage today for her psychotic craziness, as well as Ms. Boyer deserves this for stellar interpretation.

Welcome to Gotham City and prepare to be silenced, lambs..... 

(Some consolidation below...) 

Ana Le manages to convince her sisters that she was very hurt by their behavior. She knows they came again only to break her heart. Llora, who already had a whip on the ready to beat herself up over such cruel treatment of Ana Le, needed no further convincing and even Ana Lu was moved. They all want to talk. Ana Le wants to start with the fact that she did not have anything to do with Marcelo’s accident – it was all Evaristo. She – Ana Le – was heartbroken when Marcelo supposedly died and Llora is a witness of that. Ana Lu does remember that Marcelo’s accident happened on the same day that he found Soledad, and Ana Le grabs onto this lifeline for her lie. With shifty eyes she repeats again how deep her love for Marcelo was and drops the bomb of the miscarriage.

Tres Veces Ana #118 - Por Fin, Proof Under the Hot Tin Roof


Color Guide:
Rehash and Recall in Red
Reader Reaction in Blue
Avances in Green
Aside in Purple

Rehash: Valentin is still recounting the tale behind Gina's death. Gina's attempting to convince AnaLet that nobody knows about her relationship with her uncle. AnaLet throws the bottles at Gina expecting her to swallow each pill.

Ramiro interrupts this scheduled flashback to bring us his unasked opinion. He thinks eureka, it was AnaLet! Tin has attained omnipatience, and calmly answers that no, he had intervened. And at this, we see the tranformer disassemble from his wheels, into a two-legged mop.

Do you wanna hear a bedtime story?

We're sucked into a flashion-back and zoom unto some legs. AnaLet and Gina are both wearing suede heels with an ankle strap. Our next model down the runway is wearing kicks, and apparently he brought boinks as an accessory, because down our first model goes. He gives our second model an over-the-shoulder look, in only the way someone of Charlize Theron's caliber could.

A Que No Me Dejas (AQNMD) #26. Monday October 17, 2016. Why Make Things Easier On Yourself When You Can Make Them Way Harder?

The birth of a Bridezilla
At a glance 

-- Paulina is pregnant but she prefers to play the martyr instead of telling Adrián the whole truth.
-- Leonel proposes to Nuria. They each mistakenly think they have played the other one for a sucker. Suckers! 
-- Someone please make Odette and her Skittles outfits disappear from Dejaslandia! 

A closer look

Paulina learns she has a bun in the oven. She laughs nervously. What is she going to do? She has no money, no house, no job, no Adrián... No problem! Camilo Fonseca, the poster boy for the Mexican branch of “FA” (“Friendzoned Anonymous”) is here to pick up the slack.

Tres Veces Ana, #117, Monday Oct 17, 2016: Three's a Crowd

Ramiro wakes up and is surprised to see Valentin and Facundo. He's even more surprised to realize that he can't feel his legs. Valentin laughs and says bwahahaha, before you marry Ana Laura you ought to see for yourself what it is to be "differently-abled."

AnaLu and Ana Laura are chatting intensely when AnaLet barges in, strikes a pose, and demands, "why are you suddenly all quiet? Am I interrupting something?" Ana Laura solemnly lets Leticia know that yes, she is interrupting. AnaLet asks what they were talking about. AnaLu smiles and says, "about you." Leticia continues to stand there like a department store mannequin.

Mariano asks Marcelo to leave, but Marcelo doesn't want to leave without AnaLu. He warns that AnaLet could have an attack of hysteria at any moment, and since he's signed the divorce papers, she's no longer Marcelo's problem. AnaLu's love is all he wants in the world, and he won't give her up.

Valentin gloats some more about Ramiro's paralysis, "your legs have become a burden," and says he and Ramiro will now be on equal footing (no he didn't say it that way) in their fight for Ana Laura's affection, though I don't think it's really a fair competition unless Ramiro drinks a fifth of tequila too.

Tres Veces Ana 116: Facundo Hires Dr. Demento and Two Halves Are Whole

Working on the recap - Edit.

Pate 1~~

[--This, Halloween and Rocky Horror Picture Show fans, was right up your alley.  It was definitely one to say “Get your freak show on.”—edit.] 

Refridito: Alone in her jail cell, a pensive Soledad misses and mourns her wrecked relationship with Ana Lucia and recognizes, finally, how selfish she was to have kept the girl as her own all these years; Ana Lucia, meanwhile is having another nightmare, but this time she dreams of the accident and awakes to the realization Ana Leticia didn’t try to help keep her from floating away in the river.  (Now, let’s see if it sticks in her craw or not like it does Viewerville.)

El Nuevo:
Ana Lucia hears Javier sobbing in the sheets and learns he’s crying over having seen his mother in Iñaki’s apartment a few weeks earlier and wasn’t even aware of it.  She abandoned them when they were tiny boys and he’s missed her and is angry at her but needs her in his life still.  They ask each other if either of them will ever forgive the mother figures in their lives.

The next morning Marcelo watches in amazement as Ana Lucia dangles in the fabric ropes.

Speaking of spellbinding, Mariano and Viewerville listen, enchanted by the piano music supposedly coming from Ana Laura’s adroit digitery along the ivories.  He heads outside and finds Valentin waiting for “his BFF,” Ana Llora, Queen of the quivering upper lip.  They argue and Mo tells him to roll his sorry assets down the lane and never darken his niece’s door again!  A Llora comes out and objects to her only friend in the world’s rough and unfair treatment.  Mo tries warning her that Violentin has ulterior motives—“--he is not who he appears to be”-- but TinTin moves in for a kill shot.   “—And you, puritanical Uncle Mariano. Are you who you appear to be?”
