Vino el Amor #134 (Univision 123); Wednesday, April 26, 2017: Cooperating Together
We begin where we left off yesterday with Juan’s phone
call to Lilian and Lilian telling Juan that she will do everything in her power
to destroy him. He warns her by reminding her that she was once in cahoots with
him embezzling from David. She says, “Oh well that was a long time ago.” Juan
says it still matters because he kept records of all the transactions they did
together. He says something like, “Why, did you think I was some idiot?” Before
he hangs up he tells Lilian that she had better stay quiet if she does not want
to ruin herself and her daughter, she’d better not mess with him!

• Castro finds traces of blood on some leaves/branches in the jungle. Col. SantaMarina determines the troops need to head west to find her on the road. Sure enough, Sanmarco (?) and his posse are headed the same way. Yolanda is boxed in by the army and the gang of narco-guerreros. Col. S&M approaches as Yoli’s being drug into the back of the narcos’ truck and shooting begins. The only one of them left to tell the tale is Richard.
• The colonel takes Yoli back to the base and punishes her. They take her to a mausoleum looking building and lay her on a slab. They chain her down and place a tarantula on her. Col. S&M says he’ll give her the antidote at the right time. They light a fire to make it hot as hades in there and leave her.

Vino el Amor, Lunes 4/24/17 Chapter 132: Women in Black
David told Ramón and the others
that Marta would have to decide whether to apologize to Lillian or to

Vino el Amor, #131, Friday Apr 21, 2017: Between a Rock and Another Rock
Lilian tells Marta, "you're a hussy just like your damned daughter!" This brings out Marta's little fists of fury. Bobby walks in and asks what's happening. Marta tells him everything's fine! David comes in and wants to know what's going on. Lil pulls herself up and says that Marta attacked her, she doesn't know why. David wants an explanation.
Bobby is very upset about what he just witnessed. Lilian says that Marta is a savage and was screaming at her like a crazy person. Marta yells at her not to lie. She demands that Lil tell the truth. (Marta, if YOU would tell the truth once in a while, it would be better for everyone. Like that time she overheard Lilian in the coffee shop.) David sends Marta to the employee house.
Alone with David (and Bobby), a trembling Lilian repeats that Marta came in angry and crazy. Then she announces that the sheriff was killed, and starts to cry. Although her grief is real, it also appears as though she is putting on a little show for David and Bobby as she mentions again that Marta came in and attacked her. Bobby tries to comfort her. David pulls Bobby away and tells him to watch TV (which is probably being pre-empted with coverage of the sheriff's murder). David says to Lil in English, "I'll be right back."

La Piloto #33 4.20.17: In Which Yolanda Asks the Right Questions...
• Yolanda tells one of the guards, Castro, that the party downstairs seems to be in full swing. Castro laments the fact that he’s not down there with the other soldiers but taking care of her; he also warns her that she shouldn’t try anything because they’ve told him about her. Yolanda then asks how often one of those parties takes place and Castro explains that it’s only when there is something to celebrate like taking down the narcos.
• From his office, Santamaria quietly observes the party as well.
• Amanda slowly caresses her stomach as Cindy’s mother does some house chores. Cindy then calls her mother to inquire about Amanda and her mother confirms that a doctor saw her and she’s doing better. Cindy tells her to warn Amanda that the Lucios are involved in what happened because she heard a conversation at the bar and they already know Lizbeth is alive but they are looking for her. Cindy will see them when she gets out of work but they shouldn’t go out or open the door.
• In the Cielito Lindo bathroom, Cindy looks at herself in the mirror and wipes her eyes before going out. She doesn’t notice Zulima come out of an adjacent stall and quietly wash her hands.

Vino el Amor #130; Thursday April 20, 2017: RIP Sheriff Brian Gutierrez
We begin where we left off yesterday with a little more
information. Brian tells Marta that he didn’t know Marta’s family was in town
that day Marcos was arrested. He admitted that Lilian told him to deport them.
She forgives him and tells him she loves him too.
Paramedics finally arrive after what has seemed like
forever to come get Brian’s body and tape up the crime scene. Marta continues
to cry and tell Carito that she lost her family for so many years because it
was Lilian’s fault.

Vino el Amor #129; Wednesday April 19, 2017: The Bad, the Ugly, and it just gets Worse!
We begin where we left off yesterday, with DisGrace and David
telling the family that they are now engaged to be married as they are so in
love (according to DisGrace).
Still at dinner in the restaurant where David proposed to
DisGrace, Miguel and Adolfo talk winery business, Adolfo asks for Lu’s opinion,
but Luciana is not listening to their conversation. Of course Lu is depressed
and thinking about what just happened with David and his engagement to
DisGrace. Adolfo in a fatherly way is very understanding and tells her she
really needs some relief from all this and it’s just better that they just all
leave the restaurant. Adolfo says, “You don’t know how badly it hurts me to see
you suffering. Now why don’t you finish what you were eating and you’ll feel
better soon.”

La Piloto #31 4.18.17: In Which Yolanda Realizes the Danger She's In...
• Lizbeth walks around the town and asks a man on the street where the police station is. He tells her that it’s a little far but, if she takes the bus, she will arrive in no time. She tells him she has no money and he tells he she will arrive by foot in about an hour. She thanks him and starts walking.
• Across town, the truck Olivia was stashed in arrives at its destination and she gets off when the driver begs to unload boxes in a warehouse. Olivia looks around but doesn’t know where to go.
• In Colombia, Santamaria and his men stop a few yards before the entrance of Salvador’s house. Santamaria takes out his binoculars and observes a guard with a gun at the entrance. He asks Rubio to bring him Yolanda and asks her how many men are on Salvador’s farm. Yolanda has no idea but she assumes its 6 or 7. Santamaria orders his men to surround the property lest there be some surprises waiting for them and to let him know when they can proceed. The men oblige and Santamaria tells Caicedo, quietly, that if he sees any “snitches” (sapos) around to kill them. Caicedo nods and tells Vasquez to get a move on.
• Arley confers with his men about his ammunition. He nods as Roberto and another lackey confirm numbers. Just then, John comes with Oscar and tells the men that they will have a grand party tonight so they can capture El Bochas. Oscar wants him alive so they can take his money and supplies but if El Bochas insists on being difficult then they can get rid of him. Arley agrees and John gives him a phone to communicate directly with Capitan Arguelles, who will let them know when everything’s ready. John warns the men that the ammunition is not to be played with and the men all nod.

Vino el Amor #128 (Uni # 117) - Tuesday April 18, 2017 - Vino el Plans for the Future
Miguel has got big plans for vinedo del competency. Vinedo del incompetency is falling apart and we're supposed to think that's because Luciana quit. Sure...
The real reason for vinedo del incompetency's incompetency, Duh-vid, is making another incompetent decision by planning a surprise proposal for everyone's favorite aunt Succubus.
As for the rest of the villains, Lilian is planning to destroy Gut, Gut is planning to destroy the illegal traffickers, and Perla is stewing about Juan and plans to get Carito to stew with her. Only Carito has other plans... to help Gut catch Juan and Perla.
Hang in there, we're almost at the finish line (which is episode #141/142 in Mexico and who knows with Uni since they are stretching this out to May 5). Looks like I should plan to have one more recap next week...I think we only got episode #128 in this one, based on the summary at Canal de las Estrellas. If it turns out I'm wrong, I'll edit accordingly.

La Piloto #30, 4-17-2017: Slip-Ups And Loose Ends Hurt Your Friends
Vasquez enters Yolanda’s cell and wakes her up just as Sargent Recaldo (?) abusively reminds him that Yolanda is Colonel Santa Marina’s personal property. He’s called away and El Galeno finds his cellphone on the floor under the bed for her and says make that call now before somebody else comes along and they make din-din out of the both of us! She does but there’s no signal.
In Villa Antigua, John and Oscar are still offering Pops Arguelles, the Rent-a-Cop, an offer he cannot refuse. Oscar tells him that they have a friend in common that they’re looking for and want to get in touch with, El Bolches, aka Eladio the Bald Bullyboy. Pops takes the cash and says he’ll let them know. “—Better be today. And BTW, smile for the camera—just in case you’re thinking of opening you’re big trap…DON’T.” Pops exits stage left as Arley enters. Arley tells him the stewardess, aka the Gone Gals, have been permanently exiled to the depths of “el más allá [the great beyond/afterlife]” otherwise known as that great airline in the sky.

Vino el Amor, Lunes 4/17/17 Chapter 126: When All Sex Fails, Play the Victim & Chapter 127: Surrogate and Departing Daughters
When we last saw the madness in
the vineyard, Luciana had knocked on the door and seen the deliberate
deshabille of Gracie, who did this deliberately to vex her. Luciana
apologized to David, said she would not seek him out again, wished
them happiness, and left. David started to follow her only to be
shrieked at by Gracie, who gave herself credit for such sexual
witchcraft that she could not believe that he would still think that
way of Luciana.

following two questions:
What

What
do you think they really deserve?
