La Candidata Jueves, 8/1/17 Chapter 36: Gerardo or Your Family
“Vice
is nice but incest is best” could have been Caligula's motto; now
it appears to be Cecelia's., thanks to her mother, the Agrippinilla
of our tale. One can only imagine what her parents had been like for
her to push her own daughter into something as perverse as this.
Caligula and Nero would be proud of her.
- D.D.
Chapter
Thirty-Six: Gerardo or Your Family
Regina
looked inside Cecelia's home and from the door saw Emiliano in only
his briefs. She ordered him to get dressed immediately because she
was bringing him home. He refused. She told him to get dressed so
she could speak with Cecelia. He backsassed her by saying that
things were fine until she showed up. Cecelia demanded to know what
this was about and told her she would not be threatened in her own
home. Emiliano said they were busy. Regina got tough with Emiliano
and ordered him to get dressed so she could talk with Cecelia. He
insisted that they talk in front of him. Cecelia sent him back to
the bedroom so she could talk with Regina. After she smirked at
Regina in a Mean Girl manner.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #57 - 58, Mon Jul 31 2017: One Wedding and Three Murders
#57 Daughters and Mothers and Others
Mercy tells Paloma to keep a secret. Rosario asks whats that? We're just playing. Mercy gives Paloma an earring and says to guard the secret treasure. Rosario apologizes to Mercy for misjudging her. (Not so fast, Rosario.) Mercy says Joe will take Rosario to do some paperwork for her visa.
Dani the genius figured Laura was pregnant because Ryan was worried about her getting hit, and because he figures there must be a reason she told Ryan about the rape. She says he has a good head for bad things, and a bad head for good things. She says yes, she's pregnant, but she knows it's not his because she went to the doctor right afterwards. And good thing too, because otherwise she'd have had to, well, it's better if she doesn't say.
Leticia and Tadeo are arguing about the usual. She's sure he didn't "get it" from his coworkers because they're all machos, but she'll find out where it came from. She'll watch him. Tadeo doesn't want her spying on him.
Maria comes home in a bad mood. Leticia meddling in her affairs at school didn't do her any good. Tadeo says Leticia should leave both of them alone.
Leticia says she doesn't want to screw things up with Maria's friends. Suddenly Maria wants to do homework. Leticia wants to know if that boy was Maria's boyfriend and why can't she meet him? Maria says they already broke up. He's got a bunch of girlfriends. Leticia asks if she had sex with him.

La Candidata 7.31.17 Chapter 35: Cecelia Begins Her Revenge Against Regina
Regina tells Alonso that she is no longer scared of his threats because she now knows who he is. Alonso warns her that she doesn’t know what he is capable of but Regina reminds him that he doesn’t know what she is capable of either and declares that she will beat him. He wonders how because she’s young, and a woman, but asks if maybe Gerardo is her endgame though he notes that Gerardo won’t win either because he’s a loser. Alonso then declares that she is no one but his wife and therefore has no power to win. Regina reminds him that the people know the truth but Alonso explains that the people are easily manipulated and will believe anything they tell him. Regina reminds him that the people have woken up to corrupt politicians like him and will make the right decision. Alonso sighs and tells her that she doesn’t have the resources to win, especially because he will make it his personal mission to destroy her. Regina asks if he hates her so much but Alonso shakes his head and tells her that the people will hate her because he will make sure she loses everything she holds dear. Regina warns him to leave her family, and Emiliano, out of this, but Alonso laughs it off. He tells her that Emiliano will never forgive her for what she did with Gerardo but Regina reminds him that he did the exact same thing. He moves closer other and Regina asks if he’s so cowardly to hit her too. Alonso warns her not to cross the line but Regina confesses that she expected him to act exactly like he is acting. Alonso holds back and tells her that she is also nothing special, she is just his wife. He leaves and Regina breaks down crying.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #56, July 28, 2017: True Confessions…
Here is the recap, courtesy of RGVChick:
Scenes combined for continuity.
Casualties of the Battle
Back at the Cabrera battlefield, Laura tells Ryan that Mercy is demanding to exercise her rights to keep Paloma. Mercy, still angry, ensures Laura that she will fight tooth and nail for Paloma…she can’t let her go, but Laura insists that, whether she likes it or not, no one will separate her from Paloma. Mercy responds that she’d better prepare to live in her house for the rest of her life, because Paloma will not leave there. As Joe manages to pull Mercy away and in to the house, Ryan guides Laura to go sit down so she can calm down. Laura never thought this would happen with his mother, but Ryan points out that Mercy has been spending a lot of time with Paloma and has gotten very attached to her. He reassures Laura that Joe will talk some sense into Mercy, but is also worried that his mother is very agitated. He tells Laura that he needs to go check on her, but will be back shortly. As Ryan leaves, Rosario comes to check on Laura. As she is telling Laura that she left Paloma with Rita, Laura buckles over as she starts experiencing stomach pains.

La candidata Friday 7/28/17 Capítulo 34: Regina Starts the War Against Alonso OR: Marcia Learns What a Salary With No Work Makes Her
No-tell hotel room--It turns out that it is room service at the door. Wise Gerardo decided that they did need to eat before going to work even though Regina is in a rush. Since they are both without a political party now, Gerardo suggests that they work with the Political Force Party because they can provide them with opportunities to start to work together. Hmmm. . . Regina says then they will be continuing together as a couple as well as working together in the senate. Gerardo likes the way she is thinking. Regina thinks they will have to get their own party. That is why Gerardo thinks that working with the Popular Force Party is an excellent choice for them to start with. There is more laughing, kissing, canoodling on the bed with Regina's phone repeatedly pinging and ringing. She chooses to ignore it. Post-canoodling, reality demands attention. Regina checks her phone to discover that her mother is out of the hospital and has called three times, Natalia and Emiliano have called, too, as well as there being countless messages from Daniela. Finally, Regina and Gerardo take their hands off of each other and they leave.

Hey y'all! So Uni got scissor happy with this episode and edited 54 and 55 together. AHHHHHH!!! Below are 54 and 55 courtesy of myself and RGV Chick :) We don't know if this will continue until the end, as Familia is a month away and DV has less than that left so we are going to play it by ear for now.
Cut scenes are in blue and italicized.
Episode 54: Dangerous Liasons Lead to Strange Bedfellows
Laura (since her real ID is out?) tells Joe about the agenda and he is sure that she can get released if they give the DA a bigger fish to fry like Mr. Blake. Laura knows going into Blake’s house to look for the agenda is dangerous but she would do it, if she were out.
Some time later, at Furia, Joe tells Ryan about the agenda and he tells Joe that they need to go and retrieve it ASAP. Joe suggests they think it over because he must have security but Ryan reminds him that they can distract the guard and take advantage of the fact that Blake’s blind. Joe doesn’t think it would be so easy but…

La Candidata 7.27.17 Chapter 33: Regina and Gerardo, Engulfed in Desire
As a special treat, here is an earworm, courtesy of Urban: Anita Baker's Caught in the Rapture.
Hernan catches Emiliano and Cecelia in the act and decides to leave immediately though Cecelia holds him back and asks Emiliano to leave so she and Hernan could talk. Emiliano doesn’t want to but Cecelia asks him to and she will call him later. Emiliano’s guard takes him away as Hernan calls Cecelia sick before storming out.
Regina and Gerardo continue to kiss but Gerardo notes that she’s a little drunk. Regina assures him that she’s okay and fully aware but Gerardo is unsure. At that time, Regina apologizes for even calling him but Gerardo tells her that it’s okay though Regina’s head is spinning. She lays down against the headboard and he asks her to close her eyes. She obliges but then admits that what they are doing is not okay. He tells her everything is fine and Regina confesses that she feels the safest with him and the only place she wants to be with is with her. He smiles and kisses her but Regina is already falling asleep. He continues to kiss her as she drifts off before kissing her on the forehead and holding her.
Alonso’s driver continues to ask where they are going but Alonso instructs him to keep driving. He doesn’t say it but he realizes that he has nowhere to go and no one who wants him.

La Candidata, Miercoles 7/26/2017, Chapter 32: Mauro Becomes New Governor (or About Time Man!)
Alonso chides Cecilia for not knocking, “forgive me
Governor, I did not know you were busy” “yes I am busy with Secretary Sanchez”
then he tells her in his most condescending voice that when he has time he will
call her. Cecilia is frozen with complete shock at Alonso’s cold demeanor
towards her and does not move. So to show whose boss Alonso says.
“Did you not understand, or do I have to repeat myself?” of course all this was done in front of Lorena to Cecilia’s dismay. She leaves with tail between her legs. Lorena takes the opportunity to tell Alonso that Cecilia is dangerous and he should consider getting rid of her.

La Candidata Martes, 7/25/17 Chapter 31: Regina Renounces Her Party
Technology
is both a blessing and a curse in our lives. I've been having some
issues this evening with the equipment, so this is bare bones
tonight. I know you all deserve better, so my apologies for the
moment.
- D.D.
Chapter
Thirty-One: Regina Renounces her Party
Mario
sensed that someone was coming into the room. Regina entered just in
time for Mario to pull back from smothering Noemi with a pillow. He
said that her breathing tube had just become loose and put it back in
place. Then he got out as fast as he could as Noemi looked up at
Regina.

La doble vida de Estela Carillo, #53, Monday, Orange is the new black
Guilty as sin
Is Laura Oviedo ready to hear the
verdict ? Yes. Is the
Patio ? Hardly …
"We find Laura not guilty
of having tried to kill two good for nothing desgraciados. However, we do find
her very guilty of having stolen several stuff – someone else’s identity, a
child, the fans hearts with her ranchera singing…
Laura and Ryan are
devastated to hear the verdict, end even
more so when the judge pulls out the sentence out of his ass papers
right away : Laura is sentenced to 20 years in prison, to be served
starting right now.
More sorrow all around.
Chayo and LetMe are hugging and crying, Ryan looks desesperado, Joe impotent,
Mercy is quietly registering the information.
Ryan gets into a bit of a
screaming match with Mr. Blake, but he has to settle down fast or else he will
share a jail cell with Laura (as if he could be that lucky).
As she is about to be
taken away Laura faints because she’s pregnant afraid of what her life will be
like from now on.

La Candidata 7.24.17 Chapter 30: Emiliano is a Victim of Cecelia
Lorena immediately gets off Alonso and gets dressed as Mauro ushers her out. Regina slams the door closed as Alonso tries his best to keep a straight face. Regina approaches him, demanding to now what he is going to say about what she just saw, but he is quiet. Regina slaps him as tears start to form in her eyes.
In the hallway, Mauro follows Lorena as Cecelia and Magda look on. Cecelia and Lorena look at each other as Cecelia waves goodbye though Magda asks if she knows the problem she has just created. Cecelia tells her that she didn’t tell Regina what was going on, and doesn’t know who did, but Magda worries what a scandal like this one could do to his campaign. Cecelia tells her that it was his own fault before leaving.
Omar’s guard shoots at Jose but Jose takes out his gun as well and begins to shoot. Jose manages to get into the driver’s side as Omar runs down the stairs, demanding they stop them from leaving. Jose drives away as the guards continue to shoot and Omar calls them all imbeciles for allowing it to happen.

La candidata Friday 7/21/17 Capítulo 29: Natalia Tries to Escape/Regina: A Woman on a Mission
OR: Omar Goes Around the Bend OR: Too Much Coke and Insomnia Do Not a Pretty Cecilia Make
Cecilia's apartment--Hernán arrives at Cecilia's and in her drugged state she answers the door. He is not happy with her less than enthusiastic greeting and wants to know if this is how she treats her friends. Lifeless Cecilia has no time to fight with him and closes the door. Suddenly, she comes to life when she hears him shouting through the door that he has info on Lorena Sánchez. This time when she opens the door she is all perky. Hernán knows where Lorena lives and also that Larreta is not the only guy she is seeing. As a matter of fact, right now she is with somebody very special: the Gov. Voilà! He has a video on his phone of Alonso and Lorena having sex. Cecilia can barely look.
The hospital--It is morning and Regina and Gerardo have fallen asleep on a couch in the waiting area next to each other. They wake up and the doctor informs them that Noemí made it through the night but now she has an infection so they are running tests to see which antibiotic will work the best for her. Gerardo tells Regina that they need to be positive. Regina is worn out but does show a sign of life with a smile when she realizes that he spent the whole night with her. Gerardo wants to always be there in her arms but it is 6:00 a.m. and Regina tells him the time has come for him to get going because she needs him fighting in the senate. She cannot count on her fellow senators because they will do whatever Larreta or Alonso tells them. He will call her later. They have a quick kiss and he is gone but not soon enough. It just so happens that Mario has arrived and his first question to Regina is what was that guy Gerardo doing there. Barely hiding her annoyance. Regina pretends he asked about her mother and tells him that she made it through the night. Mario catches on and asks how his wife is. Regina adds that she now has an infection and is in isolation. Mario returns to his original question about Gerardo. Regina stands up and tells him that Gerardo came to open her eyes to what kind of a man her father is.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #51, July 19, 2017: The Trial of The Century Continues…
Here is the recap, courtesy of RGVChick:
Scenes combined for continuity. Flashbacks in italics.
Paloma’s Perilous Plight
Laura continues her testimony. She describes her first encounter with Blake as haunting...it is engraved in her mind and she still has nightmares. When she left Mexico, she never expected to see Blake again, but he managed to find her. Luisa shoots up out of her seat and shouts that Laura is lying, after which the judge orders her to sit down or she will be removed from the courtroom. The prosecutor accuses Laura of defaming Blake, a respectable businessman…a good man who tries to help people, but the judge stops him short and tells him that they are not there to pay homage to Mr. Blake; he then asks Laura to continue. Laura starts her story, “That day a frequent client came in drunk; and he was armed.”

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #50 7.18.17: The Trial of the Century Begins...
Memories are in italics.
In the police station, Laustela worries that she may also get Ryan in trouble because of her false testimony but Ryan reiterates that they and Paloma will be happy, soon. Laustela is unsure but she makes Ryan promise that Paloma will never know she was in jail or a criminal. Ryan nods.
The news of Laustela’s arrest spreads like wildfire along the entertainment media. Everyone wants to know why she has been arrested and various sources report that she is an illegal immigrant, usurped an identity and killed a man on American soil, which is why she will be tried in the US.
Danilo and Horacio hears all the reports from Danilo’s office. They are both surprised by the news and Danilo now knows why she never wanted to return to Mexico. Horacio asks if Danilo is aware of the possible implications, especially because the man she murdered was also an American citizen. Danilo shakes his head and Horacio reminds him that Furia may be investigated and the police may find out about the money laundering. Danilo doubts it as Regia turn herself in for other crimes that have nothing to do with El Dorado.

La Candidata Martes, 7/18/17 Chapter 27: Noemi is in a Rush
Swords
are deadly, but often words are more powerful weapons than any blade.
They cut more deeply and can never be unheard.
- D.D.
Chapter
Twenty-Seven: Noemi is in a Rush
Teresa
got out of the car in front of her building and told the guards they
didn't have to bother anymore. She knew that they were keeping an
eye on her for Mario, Alonso, or both. She acted as though she did
not, presenting a cheerfulness that was actually due to the scandal
she had just caused, and went inside.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #49, Mon Jul 17 2017: Throwing in the Towel
Alt title: Snake Bites Snake
Danilo is getting nervous, because BunMan's phone has been disconnected, and Marcelino's going to want his money soon. Horacio says it's time for Plan B, but Danilo protests that he never even had a Plan A. Then Dani comes up with a plan right on the spot: since El Dorado isn't watching, Dani will just take on more clients and he'll get the money that way. (There's a flaw in his logic, but I won't be a buzzkill.) Horacio says that more clients means more problems.
Genesis interrupts Danilo and Horacio's meeting to tell them that Soto died overnight. Danilo shoots a disbelieving look at Horacio, who replies with an ever-so-slight headshake.
Ryan calls Laura, who has apparently finished her cigarette over the weekend. Ryan is worried about her, and Chayo is beside herself. Laura reminds Ryan that scaring Chayo could put her health at risk, but Chayo was apparently just as scared when she didn't know what Laura was up to. Chayo doesn't approve of what Laura's doing. Laura's disappointed that Chayo isn't supporting her, knowing all that Laura's been through. Chayo yells some more until Laura hangs up.
Then Chayo argues with Ryan. Apparently, although it's okay for Chayo to disapprove of Laura's reckless behavior, it's not okay with Chayo if Ryan disapproves too! Seriously, I just got whiplash. She says that they have to have faith that when Laura cools off, she'll think with her head.

La Candidata 7.17.17 Chapter 26: Cecelia Reveals That She…(Recap Below)
Natalia thinks she arrived at the worst time but Omar chides her for showing up unexpectedly, especially because it’s his house. Natalia reminds him that it’s their house but Omar reminds her that she gave up all her rights when she left. Natalia demands Marcia leave but Omar grabs Natalia and tries to throw her out though Jose immediately stops him. Marcia opts to leave but Omar asks her to stay because Natalia disrespected their house first so she has no right to demand anything of him. Jose leads Natalia up to her room as Omar orders them to get everything of hers out of the house and never come back. Marcia tries to leave again but Omar apologizes for what happened and explains that he has nothing to do with Natalia anymore. Omar hugs and kisses Marcia as Natalia shakes her head from atop the staircase. Marcia, though Omar doesn’t notice, seems to be throwing up in her mouth.
Teresa explains that Mario helped her a long time ago and they are now friends though she had no idea that he was Emiliano’s grandfather. Mario then explains that Teresa asked him to help her find a job and Teresa tells them that she will start working in his company soon. Ximena is surprised that her mother wants to return to the workforce but seems happy enough. Mario then bids them goodnight and asks Teresa to continue their conversation tomorrow. Emiliano kisses Ximena goodbye and then leaves with Mario as Ximena tells Teresa that she’s happy for her but can’t understand why she didn’t tell her the good news sooner. Teresa wanted it to surprise and asks Ximena to not tell Gerardo tell she decides. Ximena is unsure of this request.

La doble vida de Estela Carillo, Capitulo 48 - 7/14/17 Kill them, Regia, kill them a slow and painful death!
Personal Statement: violence is never good and people need to work
through their problems without pulling guns... except when they're
forced into sexual slavery and the likes...
Recap courtesy of Rgv Chick (I'm just copying your first comment here, because you hit on all the important points of the show in a stellar way and as usual, time is running out on me... I did add some of my own notes in italics, but this is mainly your baby! Thank you for helping out once again!)
Odious Isidro makes it to the top of my hate list. DNA results are in and he can't wait to get Paloma so he can take Paloma back to Mexico and resell her to get more money out of her. Although Blake is hateful at least he doesn't have anything bad planned for Paloma...he has already gotten on the foster parent list so Paloma can stay with him. Between Isidreadful and Blake, we have to go with Blake, sadly. What a nightmare.
But Isidrodious won't give up on using Paloma to get more money, he hightails it over to Furia and asks to see Mercy. Luckily, Genesis tell him she is not there. Danilow makes an interception and tells him he will take her to Mercy.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #47 7.13.17: Lots of Suggestions but No Solutions
Ryan hopes one day Mercy doesn’t regret all the mistakes she’s made.
Mr. Blake doesn’t think they need Isidro anymore but it’s best to keep him close, for now. Luisa agrees, as he knows too much, but warns Mr. Blake that he could become as unpredictable and dangerous as Fausto. Mr. Blake agrees and asks Luisa to go with Isidro tomorrow for the paternity test though Luisa doubts they would give him Paloma, even if he were the father. Mr. Blake nods but thinks they could take the opportunity to give Paloma a home either way.
At her house, Joe tells Mercy that he found Isidro but he’s staying at a luxury hotel and not a rinky-dink motel, like they thought. Mercy assumes someone powerful is helping him because someone like Isidro could never afford a luxury hotel. She orders Joe to take her to see Isidro, though Joe thinks it would only complicate things. Mercy reminds him they are already complicated and storms out with Joe in tow.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #46, Jul 12, 2017: Cat’s Outta the Bag—Run, Baby, Run!
Here is the recap, courtesy of RGVChick:
Some scenes combined for continuity. Flashbacks in italics.
LetMeBeAWidow Asks for Kids Support
At Chicano Hotel, LetMe is sitting on her bed with Maria beside her. She says a small prayer for TomAss (too late, he’s dancin’ to the devil’s tune or burnin’ to a crisp). Maria reminds LetMe that he was abusive and probably got what he deserved, but LetMeBeASaint responds that no one deserves to die in such a way. When Maria asks how and why he died, LetMe responds that they don’t know…the police told her that they found everything on him-- his wallet and money-- and they asked her if he had any enemies. Maria worries that if TomAss had enemies, they might go after LetMe. Tadeo comes into the room (quite annoyed and apparently not wanting to be there) and says, “Ok I’m here. Are you happy now?” He sees that LetMe is crying and asks her what happened, and sarcastically adds, “Who died?” LetMe tells him “Tom” and adds that she needs them with her now more than ever. Maria hugs her as Tadeo assures her that they won’t leave her.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo (LDVDEC) #45 7.11.17: Speak of the Devil and He Doth Appear...
Steve wonders how he and Ryan will open the door, as there are millions of combinations they can try. Ryan goes for the faster route: one bullet for the lock and another for the keypad. He then kicks open the door and goes inside the room, gun drawn, with Steve close behind.
At Furia, Laustela arrives and runs into Ausencio but quickly walks away from him. Ausencio, however, won’t let sleeping dogs lie and assumes she’s pissed because her single is not even playing at the rinky dink stations while his is a hit. Laustela is taken aback and Ausencio rubs it in her face: she is in a world of men and they will never allow her to reign supreme while they stay behind. Genesis overhears the conversation from the reception area and goes to see what the ruckus is about as Ausencio continues his monologue: women were only put on this Earth to cook and clean and have children. Laustela tells him to go back to the 12th century but Auscenio argues that she always reacts the same, angry. Laustela tells him that if he were a man, he wouldn’t be worried about a woman taking his place but she will show him who is boss. Ausencio goes to say something but Mercy comes and demands to know what the screaming match is about.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #44, Mon Jul 10 2017: Unwelcome Guests
La Regia is doing an interview at a radio station. Someone calls in with a question. Laura doesn't recognize his voice. (The captions say it's BunMan, but I'm not sure if that's supposed to be obvious. Laura HAS met him before.) The radio host offers to cut him off, but Laura okays the call. The caller asks who is the father of your daughter, because it's not Ryan Cabrera. The host tells the producer to cut the call. Surely this is just another one of those creeps who like to harass celebrities. But Danilo gloats to Ryan that the secret is out, and that could be bad for business.
At the Chicano hotel, La Toña and Fausto are using Nina to get to Laura, since she's the president of La Regia's fan club. Nina doesn't want any part of this plan, but Toña threatens to scar her face if she doesn't cooperate. Nina's game for that, so next Toña threatens to bring Nina's 16-year-old sister into the business. That does it.
Leticia goes to jail to see Chavalin, but he's been released and they don't know where he went. (I really don't think they're supposed to tell!) She is disappointed. She goes to the bakery, but it's locked up and there's no one inside. She slips a note under the door.

La Candidata 7.10.17 Chapter 25: Regina Puts Gerardo Against Her
Mario warns Isela to be quiet and patient as he takes care of the problem. He hangs up on her and goes into the living room to call Almiron. He looks around to make sure no one is listening and then tells Almiron that he needs his help ASAP to rescue his daughter. Noemi walks in and listens to the tail end of the conversation before asking Mario which daughter he is referring to and who he was speaking with. Mario closes his eyes and sighs.
Ignacio explains to Gerardo that he was able to spare Nayeli jail time in exchange for him burying the story about Cecelia’s connection to prostitution and the cabaret. Gerardo reiterates that he did kill the story but Ignacio shows him the news report from the morning paper. Gerardo assumes it was Rodrigo’s friend, the reporter, who did so without his knowledge but he wants to know what this has to do with Nayeli. Ignacio reminds him that favors need to be paid but Gerardo thinks this is just blackmail, pure and simple, and they should go to the police. Ignacio tells him that Nayeli will end of in prison if they do before going back inside his house.

La Candidata Capitulo 24; Thursday, July 6, 2017: Regina Confronts Cecelia
Ignacio and his daughter Nayeli come out of the police
station and she’s in tears trying to explain herself and apologize. She says
that the drugs were just for fun and entertainment, she really isn’t a drug
addict. “I just don’t know who you are anymore”, says Ignacio. How long have
you been into this? What kind of entertainment is this anyway?” “Oh Daddy, I’m
so scared!” Iggy says, “Help me out here because I no longer know what to do
with you.” He hugs her.
At the political event, Larreta is introducing Alonso,
but Regina isn’t there yet. She is on her way, but is keeping everyone in
suspense. Obviously, she doesn’t really want to be there. Shortly after Alonso
takes the podium, Emiliano motions to his father that his mother is there. He escorts
her in as Alonso announces her to the audience and she presents herself as the
first lady to be. Gerardo is watching on TV and is very upset and throws down
his remote. His secretary leaves the room after offering to do something to
help. He storms out as well. Alonso goes on at the event thanking his family
and talking about how he plans to fight corruption and violence in Mexico. (Yeah buddy, you are
part of the problem!) The audience applauds…

La Candidata, Wednesday 7/5/17 Capitulo 23: Teresa goes bonkers (or as I like to call it Regina Gets hit by a Triple Whammy!)
Regina and Gerardo continue to
kiss, they give in to their passion, but Regina’s brain is racing a mile a
minute and she stops and says this is bad.
“Sorry Gerardo, this
is bad”
“This is good”
says Gerardo
“This is what we
both feel; this is the strongest thing we have ever felt”
“No, the consequences,
did they see us?”
“I don’t care if
they did, only you matter and my daughter matter”
Regina begins to explain that she
can’t do this and uses Emiliano as an excuse. He needs her and she can’t do
this.
“Also think
about the war with Alonso, about the people in the senate, the people that need
us”
“Those are just
excuses”

La Doble Vida de Estela Carillo, #42, Jul 5, 2017: Desperate Measures…Drastic Results
Here is the recap, courtesy of RGVChick:
Scenes combined for continuity
TomAss Grovels
(Mexican version only: As he retracts his fangs and horns, TomAss enters LetMe’s hospital room and slithers toward her bed. Seeing him, LetMe cringes and, as she turns away from him, begs TomAss to please not touch her because his touches become strikes ....) TomAss pleads with her to forgive him and that everything will be alright; she just needs time to think (really, mister? how can she think after you jolted her brain??). LetMe turns away and cries as TomAss leaves.

La Candidata Martes, 7/4/17 Chapter 22: Regina Give In
Too
often in our modern lives where appearances are everything one often
loses sight of one's true feelings. Most shrinks will tell you that
this is why they get rich.
- D.D.
Chapter
Twenty-Two: Regina Gives In
Alonso
tried to tell Regina that he was the man who loved her and supported
her, but she told him that for some time their relationship has not
worked.
“All
the trouble, all the pain has been your fault,” he said.
“No;
that isn't true.”
“Is
this divorce about me or for Gerardo Martínez? That imbecile is all
over us, near my house, in my face at all hours. He's responsible
for you forgetting your values, your principles,” he said, shaking
his index finger like a scolding parent.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #41, Tues Jul 4 2017: Uh-Oh, We're In Trouble
Laura asks Paloma to look into her eyes. Paloma can't see any evil there. They hug.
Laura tells Paloma that the lies were a trap to catch her, like the story where they try to trap the prince(ss). Laura cannot leave without Paloma. Paloma asks if a prince will rescue them. Laura says the princesses will need to unite and liberate themselves from the bad guy with the sunglasses. It's a deal, and they rub noses.
Leticia gives Ryan the envelope with the money. She begs him not to send Tomas to jail. Ryan is grateful. Leticia is confused. Ryan takes the envelope and shows it to Joe. They surmise that the money is Danilo's, and Tom must have found it in the warehouse where he works.
On the phone, Danilo tells Horacio that he didn't ask Marcelino for help with their thief. Dani will have to take care of it himself. Horacio reports that he was on his way to Tomas's, but his car broke down. And Ryan followed him. Dani is worried that Ryan will beat them to the money. He scolds Horacio for telling Asdrubal about the money in front of Ryan. Danilo orders Horacio to have Natividad pick up the money at Furia and take it to Morgana's show. There's a cruddy warehouse there where no one will snoop around.
Horacio asks what to do with Tomas, but Danilo has already hung up.

La Candidata 7.3.17 Chapter 21: Gerardo Will Do Anything For Regina
• Almiron orders El Cuervo to drop the gun but he refuses. He now knows that it was all a trap but Almiron warns him to cooperate or he will kill him and the rest of the police will declare that it was in self-defense. Cuervo obliges and Almiron chides him for killing a reporter, which is a serious offense in Mexico. He then orders his men to grab him and put him in the car.
• Emiliano, drugged out of his mind, tries to make out with Ximena but she pushes him away and goes to leave. Nayeli asks her not to, as things are about to heat up, but Ximena warns her that she could go to jail if something happens to Emiliano thanks to all the drugs she’s given him. She then storms out as Nayeli laughs.
• On the car ride back to the Senate, Daniela warns Regina that something is not adding up regarding Mario’s clandestine witness protection program. Regina tells her that it could be something so secret she doesn’t know about but promises to find out more. Daniela then receives a call from someone and answers immediately.

La candidata Friday 6/30/17 Capítulo 20: Gerardo Attacks Ignacio
OR: Alonso Suddenly Becomes Befuddled When Trying to Define "wife beater" OR: Magda--the Monkey in the Middle-- Reveals Herself to Be the Snake in the Grass She Is
Action at the Government offices--
Cecilia questions Lorena her about her politics, studies and preparation so she can use the info to start introducing her to the public via the press. Lorena throws a wrench in the works: she is not sure she will be accepting the position. Lorena is surprised to find out that Cecilia knew that Larreta was not in favor of her taking the position and that the info had come via the Gov. Cecilia knows that Lorena and Larreta are lovers. Lorena rightly concludes that the reason for her being offered the position was just a ploy from the Gov to get to Larreta. Cecilia then launches into a pep talk telling Lorena it does not matter why she was offered the position but that she should take it for herself; consider it a reward because she has earned it. Who knows about Larreta? He could trade her in for a newer model any day. She should not turn the position down and then later be sorry for her decision. Later, Lorena gives Larreta the bad news that she is going to do something for herself. She will be accepting the Gov's offer. She does not care how this affects him. By the way, she would do anything to get that job.

La Candidata Thursday 6/29/17 Chapter 19: Alonso Confronts Gerardo….in the Last 5 Minutes
Regina arrives at the office with her ear still
reverberating with Alonso’s insinuations that Gerardo, promising to support her
law is just using it to separate the two of them. She gets an update from
Daniela on the resignation of De La Garza and Gerardo’s statements in the
press. Daniela is worried that it might affect her image. Regina says there
will always be scandals. What she really wants to know is if they can trust her
friend (Andrés) on the police force. Daniela says they can. Regina will call
Sra. Galindo and Dani can call her pal.

Omar shows up at the governor’s office. He tells Magda she
must never speak of what happened the night before to Alonso or to anyone else
OR else…He’ll take care Natalia never says anything and Magda must make sure
Dr. Contreras never says anything either. Magda says to his face that she can’t
believe he attacked his wife so savagely—he could have killed her. Omar muses
that she might find herself in the same situation.
Alonso opens the door from his office to reveal the lovely décolleté
Lorena, her interview over and a cabinet position in her purse. She’s glowing
with pride. Magda shows her out and Omar goes in to talk to his son. He tells
Alonso he thinks Magda is too old to continue in her job. He repeats this
several times, to Alonso’s skepticism, remembering his mother yesterday,
wondering why that museum piece, Magda was still in his employ.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #39, Thurs Jun 29 2017: It's Worse
The guys at the restaurant who wouldn't talk to Emerson are more forthcoming with Ryan and Steve. Emerson is understandably disgruntled, but now they know that La Regia has been going around with Mr Green, who is running for mayor. They rush off to her next event.
Laura sings a song about the brave Latinos who leave their home and loved ones to look for something better. "We are all verses of a single song." She tries to follow up with a motivational speech, but Blake has Luisa cut the mic. Luisa tells the crowd there's a technical problem, then leads Regia off the stage by the elbow. The crowd is chanting "La Regia! La Regia!"
Steve, Emerson, and Ryan have a hard time getting near the venue because of the protesters picketing outside. They ditch the car and proceed on foot, but while cutting through an alley they run into someone that one of them previously had a rumble with, but I'm not sure who or when. Maybe it's the guy who harassed Genesis at the bar? He has his friends with him this time, so they brawl. It is very violent. Ryan fights like a Power Ranger, but the bad guy corners him and pulls a knife.
But then some angry Latinos show up and chase the "Yankees" away. The angry Latinos were on their way to demonstrate at Green's campaign event. Ryan's ready to go with them. Oh no! Emerson's been stabbed. But he still wants to go rescue Estela. Ryan must really be wound up, because he doesn't even think to argue with him. (And Steve is mad because he used his belt to fight one of the bad guys, and the bad guy took off with Steve's belt.)

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #38, Weds Jun 28 2017: Sold Out
Blake tells Laura that Paloma is the best way to hurt her. He calls for Luisa. Laura knocks him down. Luisa pulls hm out of there, and he says that Laura and Paloma will pay.
Mercy (still wearing that hat indoors) disapproves of Ryan being out of the hospital and trying to help Estela. He asks Mercy to call the lawyers who worked on his case (for killing Pedro Carrillo) to track down Rosario's sister.
Mercy is worried that Ryan is too weak to fight the bad guys. Ryan says that Steve and "someone else" is helping him.
Ryan's "someone else" is Danilo, but Danilo is reluctant to help - until Ryan says that they've got Paloma too. Then Danilo is on board with going to El Dorado - except that he has to pretend that Ryan is forcing him.
Laura tries all the usual ways to get out of the room. In the bathroom, she pries a towel bar loose, but Luisa is waiting for her. Their battle is extremely brief. Laura loses. Luisa calls "Johnson" for some "medicine." (Perhaps she means Johnson & Johnson. Hah! I kill me.) Luisa expresses a desire to [bleep] Laura's pretty face. She gives Laura a shot, and Laura goes to sleep.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #37, Tues Jun 27 2017: The Butterfly Effect
Danilo's Russian Roulette game is a dud. Natividad urges him to call it a night.
Blake meets with Senator Wolverine, er, Senator Logan, who assures him that the Justice Department will leave Furia alone in exchange for El Dorado's generous campaign contribution. Logan suggests that Blake leverage his entrepreneurial success into a run for Mayor. His blindness will work in his favor, and he'll improve the party's image. (I hate to ask which party this is.) Logan thinks that if Blake becomes Mayor, he can get Logan closer to the Governor and important people all over the US. (Sounds like Logan is a state senator, not a US senator, but he should still already have access to the guv'na.) Blake agrees to go for it. Logan says he will have to figure out how to win the Latino vote. (These two guys realize they're speaking Spanish, right?)
Joe meets with Chavalin in jail. Sounds like the police have found evidence against Chava, which will complicate his defense. Joe assures Chava that Estela asks about him every day. (She must be doing that during commercial breaks.) Chava says Estela has never visited him in jail.
Paloma, Rosario, and Paloma prepare to move out of the ranch. Danilo objects, mostly out of concern for Paloma. He offers to move out instead. She can have the ranch as payment for being La Regia. (Paloma asks if Ryan will be moving in. No, but she can ride the horse someday.)
On the phone, Blake tells BunMan that the charges against Furia will disappear. In return, Blake has a request that takes BunMan by surprise.

La Candidata Martes, 6/27/17 Chapter 18: Alonso's Attempt to Win Regina Back
Politics
does make strange bedfellows and a lot of dangerous liasons.
- D.D.
Chapter
Eighteen: Alonso's Attempt to Win Regina Back
Alonso
marched into his office, complaining that he was alone. Magda
followed him, telling him he was not.
“You
have Cecelia. She's loyal. She's efficient. She plays on your
side.”
Alonso
looked up, but Natalia's arrival stopped him saying anything had he
been inclined.
“Good
afternoon,” she said.
Magda
gave her a cold look and got a dismissive one in return.
“Leave
us,” Natalia whispered. Magda obeyed.
“Hello,
Mother,” said Alonso as Magda left the office and closed the door.
“Yes,
your mother is now becoming a museum piece.”
“Don't
talk trash about Father, please.”
“Don't
tell me you're going to defend your father's actions against my
lover.”
“Ex-lover.
It's better we don't talk about that, isn't it?”
“You're
right,” she said, not agreeing but not wanting more conflict than
necessary. “Totally. I'm condemned by your father. That man
wants to think he's the exemplary husband but in reality.... I don't
want to talk about this. As soon as you've made your bid for the
Presidency I will separate from your father.”

La Candidata Capítulo 17; Monday, June 26, 2017: Regina Rejects Gerardo’s Love
At the hospital, Regina continues to grill her father
Mario about his involvement with this healthcare scandal. He tries to pin it on
Omar and says, “It’s just business.” Then she asks him about Cecelia. “Who is
Cecelia, really Dad?” His machines start going faster and Mario starts getting
more uncomfortable. The doctor comes in to scold Regina and ask her to leave
because Mario is prohibited from having visitors because he is much too weak to
handle any kind of stress. Reluctantly, she leaves his room.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #36, Monday Jun 26 2017: A Pocketful of Ryan
Estela thinks she and Ryan need to break up in order to survive, and tells him not to make it even more difficult. He tries to get out of his hospital bed, but she begs him not to and says she loves him.
La Toña is still at Blake's place. She's tied up and wearing a gag, but Blake tells her he knows she's the one who tried to have Laura whacked. He understands why, but he reserves to right to be the one who gets revenge. He promises that he'll make Laura suffer until she begs for death. (He strokes Toña's hair creepily throughout this speech.) Unfortunately, Toña will have to wait here until he's done.
Luisa interrupts to tell Blake that La Regia is going to be on live TV. This is their chance to find Laura! They hurry out of the room where Toña is being kept. Toña struggles against the ropes binding her hands behind the chair.

La Piloto #79 6-23-17: Estela La Bella Gives All; Col. Humpty Dumpty And El Presidente Presumpty, Have Their Great Fall; And Zulima Gets Away After All
Kirby had some excellent pointers I'd thought Anita had put up also which I wanted to at least give credit for but I didn't see them to add in or to credit for Thursday, 6/21... --ed.
Parte 1~~
• Yolanda’s hiding under a bed in someone’s cell in the cell block where the lights have gone off. Meanwhile crooked guard gal is telling the inmates they’ve experienced a power failure in some areas of the prison and must stay in the main area till things are sorted out.
• Col. Santa Maria isn’t quite sure where she’s hiding but is certain she’s there and he’ll find her. “—You have to admit I’ve shown plenty of patience with you. (Maybe his twin in another parallel universe, but not after that branding iron trick of his.) If you’d only behaved the way you should have we could have been the perfect couple and gone off to Venezuela together.”

La doble vida de Estela Carillo, #35 Friday, 6/23/17 Everybody wants a piece of Estela Carillo
Estela reads the note that Ryan got from El Dorado: they want his Furia shares and for him to break up with Estela
Ryan says he will NEVER leave Laura. She is forced to acknowledge that thanks to ED he is alive. But why would ED want to stand between the two of them? Wanting access to Furia is one thing, but why are they targeted as a couple? Ryan thinks that his brother might be involved, but Laura doubts it. Nevertheless, Ryan thinks that she should stay away from him.
Laura is thinking about talking directly with ED. Ryan thinks this is a situation that men should handle (huh?), but she is sure that women are strong, too. After all, the person who tried to kill her and hurt him was a woman, La Tona. Ryan asks for the truth once again. So Laura tells him how she used to work for La Tona as a prostitute. She believed Fausto's lies, but he just left her in La Tona's hands. The first few months Osiel used to beat her every day, but after a while she managed to convince them that she was Ok with her situation, even if she was broken inside. She remembers how at one point she wanted to call her aunt but La Tona told her that the old lady was dead. When Laura cried she was just handed over to some random guy.
Ryan is crying as Laura is talking. She tried to tell him once, at the restaurant. He is sorry she had to talk about the past, and he thinks Fausto is Paloma's dad. She denies it and wants to go. He asks her to come back, kisses her hand and says how sorry he feels for everything. She quiets him with a kiss.

La Candidata Capitulo 16; Thursday, June 22, 2017: Pacheco Investigates Cecelia
At the Martinez home, while Emiliano and Ximena are
making out on the sofa, the nurse comes running in to tell Ximena that her
mother is out of control. Emiliano decides this is a good time to leave.
Gerardo and Regina are sharing a tender moment together
and they move in for the kiss---which does not happen because Regina moves away
and says she can’t do this. Gerardo says, “Don’t you want me to kiss you?”
Regina says, “Yes I do, but the problem is, I can’t do it this way. I need to
resolve the problems in my own life.”
Gerardo’s phone ring. It’s Ximena calling to tell him it’s
an emergency with her mother. She’s going crazy, asking for Gerardo, and the
nurse can’t seem to get her under control. She asks her dad to come home right
away and he agrees. Ximena and Teresa hug and Teresa starts to calm down.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo #34, 6-22-17, Ryan loses a round in the Cartel Tournament of Roses; Calao is out, QEPD
Anita,
here, substituting for Alfredo, so he can enjoy his vacation away from the
confusing life of Doble Agent Estela—oops, sorry, not a spy thriller. Actually, it should be called the Triple Life
of Estela Carrillo or even the Quadruple Life of Estela Carrillo, most of which
we know nothing about and are learning nothing much. Laura Oviedo is another
case in point. She is also a mystery woman--with a child. A mystery so great
there are people out there trying to kill her. So she hides with the new
personna (with papers) of Estela Carrillo. This identity is beginning to
unravel and though she takes the stage name of La Regia, no one is fooled by that
little twist. In fact she’s in further danger since she, her voice, the
gossip and scandal surrounding her are
now front and center.
Part 1 of 3…Some scenes combined for the sake of continuity.
Assassination Attempt
A laser is trained on the middle of Ryan’s forehead as he starts his car in the Furia parking garage. Either the laser, the shooter or his van are off target and Ryan ends up shot in his abdomen (Miracle #1). The van takes off and Ryan falls out of his car. Security comes running calling for an ambulance, stat. (Miracle #2).
The Abused Covers for the Abuser with the Magic Word “Baby”
Tad, Maria and Lett’s duffle bags are packed and on the floor in the middle of Tom’s spacious living room floor. Apparently Tad has persuaded his mother to flee the house of her now escalating abusive husband (in name only, except for one time, cause she’s pregnant). Tom returns and demands to know what is going on. Lett tells him they are leaving him.

La Piloto #77 6-21-17: Yolanda was--is--still--in Peril
Dear Alfredo--Hope you are having a wonderful time. Wish you were here, instead of me.
Although I watched the episode last night, there's not much I can remember without a re-run (which I might do later).
I remember Yolanda being reunited with the baby--she gave him Arley's name (I think).
I remember John showing Sonia some horses and her getting a phone call from Sinesterra. She urges peace among all the rival factions.
I remember seeing a lot of mothers with babies all about the same age. Is it something in the water?
I remember Yolanda not having maternal instincts and the warden noticing she didn't know how to burp a baby.
I remember DEADave not being successful in getting immunity or some kind of protection for Yoli and the gang and not wanting to tell Yoli, but decides to go visit.
I remember Yolanda holding baby Arley and having some flashbacks.

at him he is sleeping like a baby and is clueless as to the turmoil he has
caused”. They continue to argue about what is best for Emi, Regina wants to

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #33, Weds Jun 21 2017: The Fast and the Furias
Danilo taunts Ryan, "Now you've lost two Estelas." Danilo and Laura do a press conference. Dani shows off Laura's ring and says blah blah blah. Laura looks like she has a bug in her mouth, but if she opens her mouth a bomb will go off.
Steve tries to apologize to Genesis, but she says it's too late now - it's been a month. So now we know her statute of limitations.
Another Furia artist named Ausencio Granados grouses to Morgana that the press is more interested in gossip than in music. Morgana brags.
Milton comes along and has plenty of questions. Morgana is eager to answer, but the questions are for Ausencio. Oh holy crap, her boobs are almost up to her chin. I mean... I get that she's trying to maximize, but there is a limit. She warms up her voice hilariously.
Milton asks Ausencio some pointed questions about his narcos corridos (gangster ballads). Ausencio is evasive. He says sure he knows some Salgados, but they're not THE Salgados, they're just some guys from Guadalajara. He says he's got a bone to pick with La Regia for challenging him about his songs. This inspires Ryan with a great idea to end all of this forever. (Great! So, like, just five more episodes left, correct??)
So La Regia faces off with Ausencio in front of cameras, and they have a debate about the ethics of glorifying narcos, the false virtue of machismo, etc. Eventually Ausencio says something obnoxious that I don't catch, but it's something in the general category of "do you talk that way to your husband," and La Regia slaps him. (Just a regular slap, not a bitch slap. Unfortunately.) Danilo revels in the press's attention.
Tadeo invites Valdo to the house. Tom went to San Bernardino to see about a job and will probably come home drunk. No one else is home. Tadeo says he and Maria got accepted by a school and will start in a few days. Tadeo is nervous around Valdo.

La Piloto #76 6-20-17: Yolanda is--was--is--in Peril
Our dear Alfredo is on vacation and has left a big hole in coverage for the next two weeks. Most of the days will have to be filled in by viewers. Anita will be back after she sees the episode. She did not like the previews from Monday night and decided not to watch last night (thank goodness).
Highlights--
Yolanda meets S&M on a lonely country road. The nurse and "Santiago baby" are in the back seat.
Mama Estela and Arley are hot on the trail.
S&M makes her drive to the latest Lucio hideout (which we now know is an abandoned school--huh?) He tells Zuli to watch the nurse and the baby until he decides what to do with them.
He hangs her up and fires up a brazier. He takes off his coat and gets busy. He looks hungry, maybe it's a barbecue.
Arley goes in and makes Estela stay put. Estela doesn't stay put.

La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo, #32, Tuesday Jun 20 2017: The Gift Horse
This is just a mini-recap. Don't hesitate to add details in the comments.
Laura and Ryan are still in the stable when Danilo comes home. (Steve tried to warn Ryan, but Ryan was ignoring his phone.) Dani doesn't catch them because Morgana has arrived to pick a fight with him. Steve texts Genesis to ask for another chance.
Laura sneaks into the house, while Ryan waits in the stable to get the all-clear. Before Dani can go into the house, Marcelino Salgado arrives with the horse. Laura comes outside to greet them, and her hair is miraculously dry!
Danilo makes a big show of gifting the horse to Laustela, in front of Morgana. Later, after everyone has left or gone inside, Morgana decides to harm or mar the horse. Steve sends Ryan the all-clear, but as Ryan tries to leave, Morgana intercepts him. He makes an agreement with her and tells Laura so, but doesn't tell her or us what that agreement is.
Joe tells Mercy he's one signature shy of a divorce, but is interrupted by a phone call from his wife. The kids want to see him. Joe says he's too busy with work.
Next day, the doctor tells Leticia thatshe might have a tumor, and on top of that, she's pregnant. But she tells the kids she got a headache from being nervous and angry. And she wants to know where Maria got the money to buy the phone. Did she steal it from her father? Maria says she wanted to punish Erasmo for leaving them. Tadeo and Leticia scold her for giving Mexicans a bad name. Leticia says Maria has to go back and apologize. Oh and Tomas hasn't come home yet.

As Susana is about to explain to Regina about her being
deceptively recruited into this prostitution ring and forced into this life, held
captive, who should appear but the super-pimp daddy himself, Mario Barcenas.
Poor Susana is mortified to see him show up at Regina’s office door and put two
and two together and figured out that pimp-daddy is also Regina’s daddy. Susana
goes running and contacts Cecilia for help.
Mario wants to know what is going on and Regina briefly
tells him. “Well did she give you names or places,” Mario’s inquiring mind wants
to know. Regina tells him that they were barely getting started when he showed
up and she got scared and ran off. “Well, maybe she will return,” says Mario. “So
what are you doing here?” says Regina. Mario says, “I have something very
urgent to discuss with you.” They go back into her office.

He wants BunMan to call off the deal with Marcelino, but BunMan says that's crazy because Marcelino is throwing all kinds of money at them. Dani thinks Porfirio could be just as profitable in time, but BunMan doesn't want to alienate Marcelino. Danilo is emphatic that he does not want La Regia's daughter killed.
Let us pause for a moment to admire Danilo's one good quality. Time's up!
BunMan reminds Dani that he should be glad if Paloma is out of the way. That will take Ryan and "Estela" out of the running and then Dani can just knock up any old chick and get his 20%.
Dani really doesn't want anything to happen to Paloma. He tells BunMan she's locked up in a van and she'll be dead in an hour. BunMan tells him to quit wasting time and go find her, then.

La candidata Friday 6/16/17 Capítulo 12: Omar Threatens Natalia
OR: "Mujer honrada, la pierna quebrada y en casa" (An honorable woman is at home with a broken leg.) This classic Spanish proverb is alive and well in the misogynist world of "La candidata".
Alonso accuses Cecilia of lying to him. He never told her to do that. Cecilia thinks back on it all. Mauro told her and she thought they were Alonso's orders. That is why she got close to Hernán; to control him. She asked him to withdraw the information he was going to publish. Alonso wants to know if Mauro also asked her to sleep with Hernán. Cecilia just looks at the floor.
A very upset Emiliano, in the middle of Hugo's medical emergency, calls Regina. He says he is at Hugo's house and Hugo is dead from pills he took. Hugo's mother is blaming him for it all. Regina calls an ambulance. Emiliano needs to stay put, Regina is on her way.
Gerardo gets home and Ximena is there in tears. She comes clean about lying to him the night before. Her mother was not home when he called and she ended up going out herself. She informs Gerardo that Teresa is up to her old tricks: she is asking her for money again. Furthermore, she said that Teresa wanted to make a pact not to tell him about it. Teresa also hit her. Then she started taking everything out of the house saying she was going to sell it all. She cannot/does not want to live with her. Gerardo discovers that Teresa followed Ximena back to his place and that Teresa stole his father's watch. He shakes his head in exasperation.
Natalia informs Omar that she does not want to/cannot get back together with him. Omar says it is her choice. If she chooses to leave him, he will kill her. He will not allow her to expose him in front of everybody. It is bad enough that she came to stay at their son's house. How much more is she planning on humiliating him? Natalia thinks he should be in prison for killing Javier. No, he will be in prison for killing her, the damned ingrate she is. Natalia threatens to scream. Omar doesn't care because nobody will come to her aid. The time has come for her to end her tantrum. Come home with him or he will kill her on the spot. He proves his point when he takes out a gun.

La doble vida de Estela Carillo, #30 Friday, 6/16/17 The worst idiot narco wannabe in history
Paloma and Rosario
surprise Laura with a visit right outside of Furia Productions. There are a lot of fans
there waiting to see Regia, between them Nina and Fausto, too. Fausto sees Palomita
and says « mi hija » (did I hear right?)
Steve is trying to win
some time for Ryan, who is still in the restaurant basement, dealing with the
slowest computer ever. He finally finds some documents, but has to run before he's able to make any type of transfers.
Laura as Regia meets with Marcelino, the leader of one of the cartels –
she promises that she was forced to sing. Danilo, aka the New El Dorado is also there. Laura is disgusted to see what new role Danilow is playing.
LetMe and Tadeo come to take Maria back to Tomass' home. She doesn’t want to go, but
Erasmo says she can always come visit him, but can't stay for good. Maria reluctantly agrees to go, but wants to say goodbye to her
dad first ; as soon as she’s alone, she steals the money she found the night before, because she
feels that her father is failing her (or is it her entire family?)
