Cuna de lobos, Capítulo 18 Wed. 11/13/19: Two Hits and a Miss--OR--Skulking with Alvaro
As Alejandro looks up from kissing Miguel, he catches sight of a horrified Leonora who is exiting as fast as she can. He goes after her and apologizes saying he didn't want her to find out like this. She tells him she heard everything that he and Miguel said to each other. She doesn't want to hear anymore. She runs away screaming for him to stay away from her. Alejandro is visibly upset. Leonora sobs and screams at herself for being an idiot as she sits in her car. As she manages to drive away, Alvaro steps out of the shadows.
Ambar is talking to Francisco the best she can. She says she told him it was true. He answers saying that Catalina admitted to it all. Francisco asks her to forgive him and adds that he should have believed her. He informs her that Alejandro left in a desperate state and is rightfully angry. She adds that Alejandro had to know and to give some time. Francisco isn't sure he can forgive himself. Ambar dissolves in tears and tells him he always refused to believe her. With tears in his own eyes, Francisco assumes the blame for Ambar's current condition because everything she said was true. Ambar tells him that Catalina is a . . . Francisco finishes the sentence with "murderer."

El Dragón #32, 11/12/19: Underhanded Deceptions!
Hector
continues to make a scene Duarte’s office, accusing Duarte of using Natalia as
his lover. Arturo and his wife are mortified, crying out that it is not true.
He is finally thrown out of Duarte’s office. Arturo takes his wife out who is
in tears now. Duarte gets on the phone to report Hector’s behavior. The guards
throw Hector down the front steps. Arturo confronts him and socks him in the
face, telling him never to return to his foundation and to have nothing more to
do with his family. A female photographer is taking pictures of everything.
After
Mig gets through with Angel, Angel sits up and tells him that if it weren’t for
him, that Chisca would be dead, “didn’t Jorge tell you?” Miguel turns to listen
but says, “Don’t ever come back and see Chisca again.”

Cuna de Lobos, Capitulo 17 Martes 11/12/19: The Time Bomb of Truth
Nobody
in the world tells the truth all the time; life would be intolerable.
However, too many lies told too long are time bombs waiting to
explode. Nobody even thinks about the fallout until it's too late. –
D.D.
Catalina
removed the plastic bag and said “We still have much to talk
about.” She sat down. “What did you tell José Carlos? What
information did you give him?”

El Dragón #31, 11/11/19: Sex, Lies, Corruption, and Viral Video
Miguel
and Adela kissed while Jimena looked dagger eyes at her. Miguel
tried to tell Adela that he was not a romantic option for her despite
this “Because I can't make you happy”. He walked away from her.
[Coward!]
Hector's
wife, Ana, caught him in the act with Claudia and she lost it. He
made excuses. He held onto her until Claudia was able to make a safe
exit, feeling insulted at the excuses he made and telling Ana he
loved her. Ana then walked out on him. [Both of them should kick
his skanky ass at this point.]

Cuna de Lobos, Capitulo 16 Lunes 11/11/19: Confrontations
Confrontations
are sometimes best avoided. Unfortunately, they also tend to be
inconvenient, and with unpredictable outcomes.. – D.D.
José
Carlos walked out of the delivery room and removed his gloves. He
was greeted in her usual insulting manner by Catalina, who said, “You
are too weak. You have nothing to do with anything here.”
“You
should be thinking about Leonora,” he replied.
“Leonora
is Alejandro's wife.”
“Yes,
and where is your son?”
“You
are pathetic. You really want Leonora. Or are you doing this just
to annoy us?”
“Do
you really think I'm doing this in order to win the inheritance? The
reason I'm staying close to her her is to protect her from you.”
“Now
I understand it all. Leonora is the motive for your rehabilitation.”
“Yes,”
he said, looking her straight in the eye. “You know what else? I
am in love with her.”
“Oh.
There's nothing more ridiculous that to be in love with your
brother's wife.”
“One
day, when Alejandro abandons her – and that will happen – I will
be there by her and for her and neither you nor anyone else can stop
me.”
“That's
if your adored one continues to survive.”
He
glared at her as Francisco arrived and stood behind her. He was
shocked at José Carlos' expression. He then looked at Catalina as
she walked away.

Cuna de Lobos, Capítulo 15 Fri. 11/8/19: Time Jump
Diego continues his sexual assault on Catalina at the abandoned warehouse. The scene changes and she is face down, still clothed, on a mattress with her hands tied behind her back. Diego lies on top of her also clothed and tells her how beautiful she how good she smells. She tells him he will pay for this. He says it will be a hard thing to do from a jail cell because he plans to destroy her just as she did him. Diego calls José Carlos, still in Sierra Leone, to let him know that they have some things in common that they need to talk about. He wants to take some information to the authorities. José Carlos suggests he goes ahead and talks to the police unless it has to do with his attack on his aunt or diamond trafficking. Diego informs José Carlos that the diamond trafficking has been going n for years now. José Carlos is well aware of that as well as Diego's contacts. Diego adds that he should know that his stepmother is the leader of the gang. José Carlos asks why is Diego telling him all of this. Diego really doesn't know but tells him to come to a judgment and to take the appropriate action. He hangs up and approaches Catalina with a gun in his hand. She has two choices, as he sees it, one is to turn herself in to the authorities and the other . . . he makes sure she sees the gun. As she tells him to kill her calling him a disgusting pig, he throws her on her back and points the gun at her face. She tells him to shoot her but he can't. Frustrated with himself, he swears and puts the gun down.

El Dragón #30, 11/8/19: Buying Elections and Playing House
Back to our regular scheduled programming faithful friends. Friday night is here, let’s see how where our writers leave us tonight.
Angel overhears Chisca telling Valentin that she misses him, and all that jazz. Valentin gives her lame excuses about why he hasn’t called, the divorce is complicated, his wife’s lawyers can’t find out about his relationship with her. They talk sweet to each other, and all while Angel is listening and you can tell that he is upset by the whole thing. Valentin brings the conversation around to Miguel and tells Chisca that she should find out what Miguel is up to so that he can help her out by talking to Miguel for her. She is so stupid over him that she doesn’t even realize that all he is doing is pumping her for information and that it doesn’t suit him in the slightest that she is on the outs with her brother. Angel kicks an errant beer bottle and Chisca hears. She is using the excuse of Adri and Valentin buys it. Angel sneaks back upstairs. How many times does Valentin need to bring up Miguel for Chisca to get a clue. Good thing she was completely out of the picture with this last mission, but I worry she is going to get more info from Jimena than Miguel. Angel is destroyed by everything he just heard. I wonder if he is smart enough to put two and two together, or if anger and his broken heart are going to hinder his brain cells from functioning.

El Dragon #29, 11/7/19: Dead Man Walking or Chisca, Too Much Chisca
Nice to see you all a day early this week. I am taking care of Thursday and Friday recaps this week, so as you know, buckle in for a looooong ride. No really, trying to keep it a little shorter tonight as I have to work early tomorrow. But if you have any questions about a scene, or dialogue that I didn’t cover, put it in the comments, I can always go back for more details. So lets jump in.
Last night we ended with Adela picking up the file that Miggy had on his desk with the background check he did on good ole Victor. Now we can all agree, I think based on all of your feedback that this was very warranted. But also, as we all assumed, once Adela found out, she was pissed. I mean, good thing he came back clean and all (although, in my opinion, the jury is still out). I do like the way she reacted however, telling Miguel that not everyone who gets close to her, is doing it to get to him, and that he isn’t the center of the universe. She ends by asking “Who are you Miguel?” Good question, one I think those of us on the patio have been trying to figure out as well. He isn’t 100% hero, nor 100% villain, yet in his stoicism we see very little of who he truly is, except a he-ho. Adela stumbles on a truth that Miguel won’t admit, she asks if he is jealous. And I think that Migs was looking for any reason really, to look into her guy. And at that point, Adela lets loose. She tells him that he is with as many women as she likes but he has a problem with her seeing someone. He says of course not, she can be with whomever she pleases. In fact, he would like to meet Victor. The best part of the scene though, isn’t even the words, its the looks that Miguel gives, he doesn’t like being told anything. And it look like Victor is coming to dinner… not really, he just says they should meet.

Cuna de Lobos, Capítulo 14 Thurs. 11/7/19: Diego Will Be Back
Below is AnonFri's recap for Thursday's episode.
Diego prepares to leave but Catalina appears, holding a gun to his head. She tells him that his mistakes have been costly to her. He tells her that her biggest mistake was actually underestimating him. They struggle for the gun and it goes off but neither of them were hit. Diego wins, throwing Catalina breathless on the couch.
Francisco heads into the building to see Diego. He yells out Catalina’s name from the street. Catalina tells Diego she had the opportunity to kill him but didn’t, so they’re both even now. Diego hits Catalina in the head with the gun and heads out through a backdoor while Francisco forces open the front door and finds Catalina hurt on the floor. Diego drives off in his navy car.

El Dragón #28, 11/6/19: A Happy Pill in Everyone’s Future
We start out with a slight rewind of Hans and Jimena’s
arrival at the Pritken lab gates for what he hopes will be a little private
comfy time.
When Trejo and Peligro, posing as the lab guards aren’t quick enough at the gate, Hans gets out to harangue them. He wants to know who they are. Trejo explains he’s subbing for the regular guard. Hans wants to know his name—Trejo answers Ricardo Aceituna (Rick Olive). Hansie demands this imbecile with the funny name open up the damned gates. By this time Trejo can’t delay any longer and complies. Our intruders are still inside, Mig trying to hurry up Flaco since there are only two minutes left. Done and done. They exit the restricted lab as we watch the timer go down from 5-4-3-2-1 seconds, to .... whew, they make it past the laser just as it turns from green to red.

Cuna de Lobos, Capítulo 13 Wed. 11/6/19: Unruly Loose Ends
Catalina is meeting with Diego in her office. She has noticed he has seemed stressed lately and things and he is losing control. As he protests to the contrary, Catalina reminds him about Ambar and then Luis's accident that almost cost her the life of her daughter in law grandchild. He is just not cutting it and now there is the situation with Sabrina. Catalina feels that he needs to go on vacation. He wants to know if he is being removed from the business because he feels that he has been loyal in spite of knowing what he does. Catalina takes that as the second time he has threatened her. He disagrees insisting he isn't that stupid. Visibly upset, he wants to know what he can do to make things right again. She gives him a task. Luis the reporter was snooping around yesterday. She wants him to make sure that Luis understands he isn't to come around her or her family again. She still is offering the "vacation." A knock on the door ends the conversation. It is Leonora who has come to get her for a photo shoot.

Cuna de Lobos, Capitulo 12 Martes 11/5/19: Sabrina Full of Grace
Lies
and long-term deceptions are the poisons of life. It doesn't matter
whether people are rich or poor as long as they are honest with
themselves as well as others. No monster ever wants to know that is
what they are and many are not born to this, but become so because of
what they do to others. Too many of them do not see this happening. – D.D.
Ámbar
fired several times, aiming just a half meter beyond Catalina's left
shoulder. Catalina – as cold-blooded as ever – barely flinched.
“No,
no,” said Francisco.
“Tell
me the truth,” Ámbar said. “Tell me.”

El Dragón #27, 11/5/19: Locked up Twice, is there an Escape?
We begin
with Chisca’s arrest and getting her mugshots. She thinks she can just say she
is a Garza and get off easily. But she gets thrown in the slammer anyway
without a phone call. Her cellmate bullies her around and finally Chisca goes
to sit down.
Miguel
and Duarte are talking about Hector and discussing what to do about it. Miguel
says he can’t help him.
At the
Garza home, Dora and Rosario discuss dinner while the TV is on. Dora is
horrified as she witnesses Chisca’s arrest on the news. She calls Miguel who is
in the midst of talking to Duarte. Then he makes a deal with Duarte as Duarte “offers”
to just say the word and get her out. Miguel is stuck. He is now indebted to Duarte,
one favor for another.

Cuna de Lobos, Capitulo 11 Lunes 11/4/19: My Cup Boileth Over
Secrets
and lies are a poisonous stew that left simmering too long will boil
over the top, leaving a gaseous pollution in the air. These are not
the stuff of wolves, who work together and love their cubs, but of
reptiles and venom. Reptiles do not care for their young and are
barely conscious of them; they act only in their own self-interest. –
D.D.
Luis
went to the meeting arranged over the phone and it was with Ámbar.
“So
you have evidence that Doña Catalina is a murderer? Why call me
instead of the police?” he asked.
“You
know who Catalina Creel is. It's a miracle that I'm alive. She
tried to kill me when I discovered that she and my husband were
lovers. I was kidnapped, taken to another house, put in the garage,
fed an overdose of tranquilizers, and thrown into a car trunk. I
don't know what would have happened to me if I hadn't managed to
escape.”
“Does
anyone in your family know about this?”
“No.
They are all convinced that I abandoned my husband. But she is only
concealing her crime. She thinks I'm dead, so that's why I asked you
to come.”
“I
don't understand why you called me; remember that I'm only a
journalist.”
“But
you interfered in what was happening. You were at the new line
celebration. You know they are criminals. You know about the
trafficking in illegal diamonds.”
“Because
at that moment I was in the middle of an investigation –”
He
stopped as Dora entered with coffee.
“Thank
you, Dora.” She turned back to Luis. “You can talk; I trust
her.”
Dora
looked at Luis, then excused herself and left them to talk.
“I
don't have more to say,” Luis said. “I had to abandon the case
because of my boss's lack of confidence and because I had no proof of
anything.”
“I
can help with evidence. Catalina and my husband think I'm an idiot,
an imbecile who knows nothing, but I know what I'm doing and how to
do it. You and I, if you help me, can do this so Catalia pays for
everything she's done.”
