Amar a Muerte, 3/5/2019, Episode 83: (Non)Sense and Sensibility OR A Sinking Ship and Bailing Yeo(wo)man




Montilla is still in Johny’s office questioning Magda, the secretary. Once finished, he asks for a copy of Johny’s agenda for the day on which Susana was murdered. Montilla takes the cups of coffee and is about to leave when Lucía rushes in, but when she sees Montilla, she excuses herself and starts to leave. Montilla tells her he is leaving and regrets that Johny didn’t want his coffee. After Montilla and Magda leave, Lucía asks what happened with Montilla. Johny assures her everything is well, but wonders what is going on with her since she looks so upset. Lucía doesn’t know whether to call it a miracle or craziness…Jacobo Reyes is León Carvajal! Johny smirks and wonders if she is going to continue with that nonsense; those are ideas of the common folk. Lucía swears that this is different; she just came from talking to Lupita, Jacobo’s alleged wife. Lupita confirmed it; there is a different person in her husband’s body. Johny thinks it’s something that many wives say; maybe they got together and want money or he is lying to her. Lucía also went to see Camilo who also confirmed that LCJ (León/Chino/Jacobo) is León. Johny insists that Cami is Jacobo’s friend and is defending him, Lucía points out that Cami is also a scientist with an impeccable reputation; they call this transmigration of souls. Johny argues and tells her to think it through because he doesn’t have time for her stupidities…their boat is sinking and she comes with this nonsense. Lucía gives up and storms out.  (And takes her shark repellant with her)

TELEMUNDO Y MÁS (#1): Betty en NY, La Reina del Sur 1, y más: Week of March 4, 2019

Welcome to Page #1 (Monday edition) of the Telemundo y Más page, issued twice a week: Mondays and Thursdays at 8:00 PM.

Here are the current evening telenovelas (all times are Eastern Standard Time):

• 9-10PM—Betty en NY
• 10-11PM—La Reina del Sur - Season 1**

**The second season of La Reina del Sur will begin on April 22. To attract and  prepare viewers for Season 2, Telemundo is presenting a somewhat abridged version (la Edición Especial) of the highly acclaimed Season 1 in the 10 PM time slot beginning this Monday, March 4. I think the unabridged version is the best telenovela I've ever seen.  I suspect that even an abridged version will be well worth watching.  To make room for Reina 1, El Barón has been relegated to the 1:00-2:00 AM time slot.

Everyone is welcome to join in the conversation.  Since discussions of all the Telemundo novelas share the same page, please remember to put the name of the telenovela you're referring to at the top of your post, so readers can easily find the conversations they're looking for.

Amar a Muerte, 3/1/19, Episode 81: So Hard To Believe?


In the darkened theater, Lucia tells Jacobo, aka León, that what he's telling her is impossible.  How could he expect her to believe such a cruel thing?  Jacón replies that he's asked himself a thousand times the same thing.  She insists León died in her arms and she herself saw him buried.  Now he expects her to believe he was [like Dios] brought back and arose three days later?  "--NOT three days later--it was the same day!"  She accuses him of playing a disgusting trick on her.  He mentions things the two of them alone would have share: the origamis birds because she felt jailed and wanted to fly away; the dinner in Paris where she learned to eat snails; and the tea they had in Japan served by a geisha.  "--Come closer, Lucia.  I know that it is strange.  The body is Chino Valdez but the soul is my own.  I am León Carvajal.  It's name is transmigration of souls and that's what happened to me the day of my death."

Johny speaks to one of the security or police to trace Lucia's phone so he can "rescue her from a very dangerous man."  

Lucia races back towards the lobby telling Jacon that it's superstitious rubbish; a person dies and that's that.  He insists to her that it isn't that easy and it is something he had to come to terms with and accept.  She insists he's lying to her and is NOT Leon because he loved her and wouldn't dare pull something so nasty on her.  He already admitted he hates her.  He declares that he finally understood he had to accept it all when he watched his widow and his former right hand man and best friend discussing how they had planned his murder.  "--So how did you divine that?  He yells back that he didn't have to.  He viewed it all through the cameras he had placed throughout the entire house and watched it from that secret room they discovered a few days back.  One of those cameras was placed in her studio.  "--And shall I relay to you what happened next?  Because I have the time to!!"  "--I am not going to play your little game!!"  She races out into the street just as Johny pulls up.  She gets in and tells Johny to floor it.

Amar a Muerte, 2/28/2019, Episode 80: And the Truth Shall Set You Free…or NOT!



Previously: Lucía sent a message to LCJ that she has come to a decision and needs to talk to him right away. Mateo caught up with Eva as she was leaving Alacrán’s hideout. Eva’s lies didn’t help a bit; Mateo knows she’s been coming to see Alacrán.

Eva nervously stutters, so Mateo tells her not to deny it. Eva insists that she isn’t denying anything because she isn’t doing anything. Mateo knows she was with El Alacrán, the mob boss of the Cartel de los Sierra. Eva shushes him and tells him to calm down; she has no idea where he gets his ideas. When Mateo asks what she was doing there, Eva tells him she will explain…she continues with her pathetic story of getting lost; so Mateo orders her to stop and asks why she continues her lies. Eva wants him to stop yelling at her; and when he insists that she has been going there to see Alacrán with whom she gets along very well, Eva turns around and gets in her car because it is very dangerous there.

Amar a Muerte, 2/27/2019, Episode 79: Gypsies in the Castles, can Candy, Loopy and Juls get a place together?



Previously: Lucía told Candela to pack her things and leave. Vale asked Juls if she had sex with Sergio. LCJ went to see Mateo to talk to him about Eva, he thinks Eva was being coerced into the money laundering business. Mateo gave him a shocker when he told LCJ that Eva was also doing the horizontal mambo with Alacrán.

LCJ (León/Chino/Jacobo) doesn’t believe it, but Mateo assures him that he saw it with his own eyes. LCJ wants to know what Mateo heard, so Mateo tells him that Eva told Alacrán that if he died, she wanted to die too because she loves him. LCJ thinks Mateo must be mistaken. Mateo wishes he was mistaken, his whole life has been a lie…his marriage…and now he doesn’t even know if the child Eva is having is his. LCJ wants Mateo to talk to her so she can explain, but Mateo knows she will continue lying. He had already asked her about the money laundering and all she did was lie to his face. Mateo can’t trust her, what he has to do is go to the newspaper and publish his report….if they won’t do it, he’ll go to the competition. LCJ heatedly tells Mateo to calm down, the baby might be his and they could be blackmailing Eva. Mateo retorts, “Oh, yeah! They put a gun to her head so that she could be rolling around with that criminal! That’s what happened! Enough! I have to bring her down, that’s what I need to do!” LCJ yells that what he needs to do is not act on impulse. Mateo gets his laptop and starts to leave, but LCJ blocks his way.

Amar a Muerte, 2/26/2019, Episode 78: A Hard Fall from Grace



Eva arrives at Alacrán’s hideout and is patted down before she enters to see Alacrán. After she and the goons enter, Mateo cautiously comes out from the side of the building. He doesn’t dare go inside, but finds a scaffolding leading up to the second floor and starts his way up.

At Barb’s house, LCJ (León/Chino/Jacobo) laughs as he teases Camilo for trying to be a jokester in his old age since he is trying to make him believe that his daughter is laundering money for the Cartel de los Sierra. Cami chides LCJ for thinking that he would go there just to say jokes so that LCJ can have a good time. When Cami tells LCJ that Mateo went to his house, LCJ asks him to tell him exactly what Mateo said.  Mateo told Cami something very serious—the Carvajal Group is involved in money laundering. Cami asks LCJ to think about who heads the company if not Eva. LCJ thinks that the idea that his daughter is laundering money in the company that he built is crazy. Cami asserts that Mateo arrived at his house and he has evidence. This is a critical situation since LCJ has been marked as a sicario. LCJ wants to go talk to Mateo so Mateo can explain it to him, but Cami tells him he can’t; Cami is there so LCJ can tell him what he needs to do.

Amar A Muerte, 2/22/19, Episode 76: Goons And Gálans To The Rescue

Parte 1~~

 So, via Lucia's directive, the news gets out. Guillermo's stint in jail gets publicized nationwide with a sympathetic slant  (natch):  "--The young heir to the Carvajal news empire hoping to fashion his own road to success fell victim to a youthful and spirited horseplay which turned into a tragic accident.  As one can see (and of course, the liquor store owner and his wife just happen to be in the audience), the young man was not aware of what was about to occur and once he saw what his friend intended, he tried to avoid the gun play but the bullet went astray and tragedy struck.  Now all of Mexico is on the edge of their seat wondering what his fate will be."  Mrs. Liquorstore Owner angrily calls the news broadcast manipulative--and she ain't wrong.  Mr. Liquorstore Owner is thinking things over and seems to have a different twist on it all.

A bit later in the day, Valentina races into Montilla's office asking him to rescue Juliana from the same men who once kidnapped her mother.  He says he'll try but ain't promisin' nuthin'.  She races back out in a snitfit.

Amar a Muerte, 2/20/2019, Episode 75: DRAT, Now where did I put dem bullets?



Previously: Lucía asked Camilo if he thought she and Johny were León’s murderers.
Camilo laughs it off and assures Lucía that he could never think she would commit such a crime. When Lucía asks about Johny, Cami confesses that he thinks Johny is terribly wicked, calculating, and a game player, if Jacobo accuses him there must be a good reason. Cami adds that that is a conversation that Johny and Jacobo should have, it’s not any of Cami's business. Lucía asks Cami not to be a hypocrite, he is good friends, and probably an accomplice, with Jacobo and surely, Jacobo has told him that they had a relationship. Cami remarks that Jacobo is the problem. Lucía gets annoyed and asks what it is they want…do they want to drive her crazy? Cami denies wanting to make her crazy and reiterates that Jacobo is the one that needs to have that conversation with her.

At Beltrino’s house, Alicia watches one of Beltrán’s lectures where he presents information on Plato and his theory that purports the passing of certain psychic abilities from body to body after death. She continues to listen as a woman in the audience, Micaela Robles, affirms that the transmigration of souls does exist…because she is a transmigrant. Alicia is shocked, but writes down the name.

At Barb’s house, Barb has microwaved something for León since her cooking is a joke. She asks LCJ to tell her more about Vale and Juls, but LCJ doesn’t think he needs to go into detail. Barb cackles as she thinks about the face Beltrino will make when he finds out. LCJ scoldes her for laughing and asks if she thinks that this is really funny, Barb admits that it is, but she doesn’t think it’s a coincidence…it’s destiny. LCJ and Beltrino were meant to meet through the transmigration of their souls or through their daughters…or maybe one thing happened so that the other might occur. LCJ agrees that there has to be a purpose for all of this…maybe so that he can help Betrino save his daughter, but there has to be something more.
