Corazón Que Miente, Week 6 (7/9/18) Monday Kickoff: Alonso and Mariela Lock and Load
Alonso overhears Rafaela
& Renata crowing about their success spreading the rumor about Mari &
Leo and confronts them. Rafi tries to take the fall – not out of nobility,
obvi, but because she’ll do anything for a buck – but Al’s having none of it. He
marches right over to Mariela’s house and kisses her for realz, this time with
her full cooperation. He tells her it may not be in his power to get her lands
back, but he will do everything he can – and oh, he loves her right down to his
bones. She feels the same. They both cheerfully admit their respective novios
are just placeholders, but she asks him to keep their relationship quiet until
she can figure out how to tell Leo. Probably not a super-good idea, especially
with Denise spying on them from the balcony.

Carla attempts to launch a
wedding-planning session with Florencia, who won’t come out from under the
covers. Not a good look for a bride. Santi stops by later on to give Flo the
groom’s-eye view, which is basically, “Do whatever you want coz I don’t give a
rat’s ass.” He goes on to make his feelings crystal clear: she got what she
wanted, he hopes she’s satisfied, but she should know he isn’t marrying her
because he WANTS to. (What kind of table decorations go with that theme?) I
have to admit I like nasty Santi better than whiny Santi, but I wouldn’t be the
least bit disturbed if the earth opened up and swallowed them both.

Por Amar Sin Ley, 7/6/18 Chapter 92 Viernes: Season Finale - The Pursuit of Justice
Chapter
92, Season Finale: The Pursuit of Justice
I'm
Christopher Mason. The practice of law is often tedious. It can
involve reams of paper on a single motion, many postponements of
decisions, and often arbitrary rules of evidence. It can also
involve danger. Closing a case doesn't always mean that it's the end
and even an important victory can be followed by terrible tragedy.
That is an occupational hazard in the pursuit of justice.
- Isabel drove out in Gustavo's car right into El Gato's line of fire.

Por Amar Sin Ley, 7/5/18 Chapter 91: A Killer Revealed and A Killing With Two Fates Sealed
Parte 1~
We return to the bar for Uni’s double dose of what we--along with Loony Leonardo--all suspected and have waited for lo these many endless weeks. It’s Alan calmly paying off the bawling, pathetic Pedro’s decrepit and morally lacking lawyer with a gym bag full of bills. Alan’s demeanor and expression is straighter than straight, a manner and mien only a sociopathic psycho killer could succeed at. He savors the memory of the murder he’s gotten away with in much the same way he savors the taste of his high-priced sipping whiskey. He thinks back to entering Carlos’s room once his cousin had finally gone, viewing the still sleeping slut, and then holding a pillow over her frightened femme del fatal hasta el final….until she lay lifeless. Poom!
In another part of the city, Ricardo, Roberto and Leo are enjoying happy hour together once again. Leo gives the other two the news about his having accepted a position in N.Y.C. with a high-priced legal firm and is taking Olivia with him immediately after their wedding. Rob is closed to heart-broken but bears up as he should. His best bud is soon to be a bye-gone. We’ll give him that and hope he matures a bit with this news.

Corazon Que Miente, Week 5 (7/2/18) Thursday Update: Backstage Cupids
Alonso gives up trying to make Lisandro jealous and admits he's the jealous one. (Isn't "I can't get your girlfriend out of my head" a really weird thing to say to your best friend?) Liso sweetly asks if he would give up his job and his family for her -- that's what he did. If not, he doesn't really love her, does he?
Liso can barely keep a straight face while relating this to Mariela. He's crazy about you, he tells her, and you're obviously interested as well -- why not give him a chance? Well, because of los terrenos, of course. But wouldn't you have a better chance at those terrenos if you got a little closer...? Mari replies that no, that's not her style: she prefers to go at things frontways (leading with her slapping hand, as we've seen.)
Renata pops into Dem's office with a copy of her "bank statement." Is it for real, or did she whip it up in the public library? He seems to take it seriously enough to show it to Rafi, who points out that Santi is not the son he should be trying to marry off.

Por Amar Sin Ley, 7/4/18 Chapter 90: A Game of Musical Suspects
BUFETE VEGA:
Read more »
Alonso drops in on Leo, Rob, and Juan, who are gearing up
for an all-night strategy session on the Linares trial. Each presents his prime
suspect: for Leo, it’s Alan, because of his resentment of Carlos; for Rob, it’s
Creepy Pedro, for finding out about her night job, with the probable assistance
of Tatiana, who was jealous of her big tips; for Juan, it’s
Carlos, because Sonia’s been after him forever, and where there’s smoke there’s
fire. (Seriously, Juan? Didn’t you used to be a DEFENSE attorney?) Al advises
them to come up with a coordinated approach and pointedly reminds Juan that
Carlos is their CLIENT. At this point my curiosity about who did the murder has
been completely supplanted by my curiosity about who needed the gluten-free
vegan pizza.
RECLUSORIO & VICINITY
Alan pulls Creepy Pedro’s lawyer aside for some
whisper-whisper. The next thing we know, said lawyer is advising Pedro that he needs to play it super-emotional at the trial. We know this is
bad advice but can’t help wondering how far things might go when someone is
actually being ENCOURAGED to jump across the table.

Por Amar Sin Ley, 7/3/18 Chapter 89: A Turn of the Tables
• Benjamin begs Leticia to call Carlos Ibarra to represent him. Obligingly, she does call him.
• At a nearby watering hole, amidst jolly jostling dancin’ fools, Alejandra, Roberto and Victoria pat themselves on the back for successfully playing Cupid. Rob looks at Vicky and suggests it’s too bad others who’ve been in love with each other for a long time are prevented from enjoying mutually their relationships. He adds he meant it regarding Ale and Ricardo’s situation, nothing more. She comments that what they had was nice but she’s given up on this and has determined Ric’s not in her deck of fortune-telling cards. She’s going her own way and leaving Ric in the dust.
• Gustavo says good-bye and thanks for the celebratory din-din Isabela toiled over to celebrate his win. They make plans to go to Luis’s game(?) the next day. They share an unsuspected and passionate kiss good-bye. He leaves but with the biggest sh!t eating grin we’ve seen on his face for a long time--if ever.

Corazón Que Miente, Week 5 (7/2/18) Monday Kickoff: Grown-Up Emotions and Kindergarten Coping Skills
Mari’s pager interrupts her sincere
promise not to out Lisandro, and they both dash off to the clinic to meet the
ambulance carrying Alonso and Julio. I
didn’t catch the point at which she agreed to continue playing girlfriend, but
the deal is sealed when she plants one on him with a theatrical “mi amor!” for
the benefit of a sour-faced Alonso.

Santi catches Renata staking
out Alonso’s bedroom and gives her some sass. (Renata’s baby-doll voice,
presumably meant to match the baby-doll pj’s she sports as daywear, is really
starting to get on my nerves.)
Noe and the fam settle into
their new digs at Case del Rio. Carmen tells Amalia that she’ll be needing
“nutritious food, and lots of it,” provoking Cirila to fly out like a spittin’
kitten and set her straight.

Por Amar Sin Ley, 6/29/18 Chapter 87: Too Much Kiss-Kiss, Not Enough Bang-Bang
DEPARTAMENTO ELENA:
We open with Elena doing a face-plant on Ric. After a long,
audience-discomfiting moment of galanbesoparalysis, he gently pushes her away.
She’s still Alien Elena, so she understands. They take turns apologizing to
each other. It’s weird and somehow also boring. “Is this about Alejandra? Do
you still love her?” “Yes, very much.” She asks for a few minutes alone and
cries crystal tears while looking out from the balcony. No venganza-face or anything.
After Ric goes off to play Romper Room with his oversized
toddlers, she gets on the phone with Carlos’s tame lawyer and tells him “things
have changed.” Hmmm.
OFICINA VICTORIA:
Flush from their matchmaking victory, Rob pops in to ask
Victoria out. She is noncommittal until he says it’s to visit his Dad, then she’s
all in. Nicolas is a tipazo! “Well, you can’t do better than me, then – I’m
the new, improved version!” He asks her again when she’ll give him an oportunidad, and she says maybe someday.
He judges this microthaw to be a significant indication of progress, while the
rest of us just slowly age in place.
BUFETE VEGA:
Gus and Alonso are working late on the Ramiro Dorantes case.
Gus says fraud is not his specialty, so he’ll need some help making the case
airtight. Al promises to be there for him. He also reminds him that when things
start to go bad for Ramiro, his brother will not take this lying down. They’ll
all need to be extra-careful, which
is telenovela foreshadowing for “there’s gonna be a shoot ‘em up.” Shall we
nominate our favorite victims?

Episode #19
Noé goes with the police quietly. The ladies are very agitated.
Ren is still in the garden with Santi. She’s sure Mariela means nothing to Alonso (as Santi hinted) and if she did, Ren will just snap her fingers and she’s gone. Oh, says Santi, sort of the way she did with him?
Leo is trying to find some inspiration for his next project, but is called home to help out with the latest crisis.
Karla urges her adult son to not get involved with that tal Mariela. He should know she’s bad news and bad news travels fast around town (especially if Karla is driving the train). Liso laughs at her proposition and blows her off, even after hearing that Mari slapped his sister a little while ago. It was all because Flo told Mari to keep her hands off her boyfriend. Liso is very skeptical. When Mari calls, Liso answers, to the consternation of his mother.

Por Amar Sin Ley, 6/27/18 Chapter 85: Indecent Proposals
Olivia joins Alan for dinner. Alan, the Quicksand Kid, the poster boy for Beta males everywhere, sits down and while waiting for their cocktails, offers the woman he supposedly loves and wants to spend the rest of his dull, lusterless life with--a beauty with whom he's shared a few, passionless lip locks that led nowhere--(drum roll)...not a diamond ring hidden at the bottom of her champagne glass nor baked into her dessert. Nope. He regales her with ---wait for it--a set of shiny new keys to his apartment!!! (Cue the crickets!) er...was that a whoopee cushion Viewerville just heard?
Oli, to her credit, is polite as always, and perhaps not so disappointed--rather more than less relieved it's only a set of keys. (Alan, you are so predictably tacky!) She is more than a bit peeved and stutters that their relationship hasn't come to that bend in Proposition Road yet. In fact, she'd hoped he saw her as more proper than propositional. He asks her just what really happened in Cancun since she's come back from there a totally different woman. (Sure, thing Al. You've dug yourself into a hole. No reason to stop digging now.)

from guilt. This can be because of the teachings of childhood, a
life-changing experience, or a feeling of inferiority. That makes it
a powerful tool in the hands of the wrong people. In our today's
story Guilt is a tidalwave.
- “Show me how you used it,” said Carlos after he handed the pen to Octavio.
“I don't remember; it happened so fast. He was very violent,” Octavio said as he fumbled with the pen.
“Show me how much force you used.”
Octavio stood up and picked the pen up from the table.

- Nuria appeared behind Daniela as she argued her rights with Octavio. She stabbed her in the back at the waist, then took advantage of Daniela's shock to stab her in the stomach. The weapon was obviously a kitchen knife.
“Nobody takes my son away from me!” she yelled visciously as her victim fell to the floor. “Least of all a monster like you!”
