Master Disaster Engagement Dinner—Or Troth and Consequences
Master Disaster Engagement Dinner—Or Troth and Consequences
CAP 30
The guests breathlessly await Don Fernando’s proposal to Isa-bunintheoven-bela. It’s as if nobody that’s anybody there can honestly believe he’s going through with this numskull and muy but muy passé, aka archaic, idea of marrying the woman simply because she was dumb/careless/naive enough not to use birth control. (Yes, I do marvel at a 21st century Super Brainiac Bidnezwoman in her thirties, with x-number of advanced degrees, not using birth control of some sort--especially when purposely seducing a handsome, successful bidnezman--if not to trap the sorry SOB into marriage. Duh, Telerisa!) Anyway, reluctantly DonFerd does his duty. Bela blares out a repetitiously resounding “¡Sí,sí,sí!” to everyone’s dismay. (ITA with Yo mama Yolanda—“Enough already! We heard ya the first set of Sí’s!)

Skipping the old and right into the new...
Acacia, Manuel and Luisa walk up to the river and reminisce about old times. He takes off his shirt and wants to get into the water. Luisa doesn't want him to throw her in the water like when they were kids. He chases her around.
Cris asks how the kids are doing. Everything is well now that German has agreed to run the hacienda. Norberto is so happy. Cris thinks Norberto should know that German is still painting.
Esteban silently gallops up to Acacia who some weird reason decides to change her clothes in the middle of the forest for all to see. He gazes at her nude body at a way no stepfather ought to.

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #9: 8/28/14: The Curious Case of Paco and the Mysterious Woman
Hola Amiguis. If Pato thinks he can ever be a detective, he's sadly mistaken. Pato couldn't get water out of a wet sponge. Here is an earworm for you while you read this recap. Watching The Detectives Shall we begin:
Everyone is at the Maestro's wake. Alexa is also there. Later, sitting next to her Mama, Sofia agrees that Alexa is fragile. Pato comes next and plops himself down next to Greta and Sofia. He starts with innuendo with Greta. Using pointedly simpering things like secret lovers, etc. and Greta gets uncomfortable and goes out for air. Pato thinks to himself he wants Greta to confess.
Pato thinks he is Hercule Poirot
Chava talks to Cuco, and Cuco wants to know since Chava has quit the racing, instead of continuing to do this chofer's job, why doesn't he do Mariachi, like his Papa Javier? Chava is really good. Chava gets irate, never, ever will he be like his Papa, a pox on the man!

Posting of Tuesday's Mi Corazón Es Tuyo# 27 by Julia and Jarifa
[Thanks to both Julia and Jarifa whose memories were near perfect in their assist to Eli!]
Isabitch got Fer to reluctantly agree to have their engagement party the next day and to give her a credit card for expenses.
Isa went to the house to try to suck up to the kids. Guille and Alex attacked her with water guns, making the non-colorfast dye from her blue blouse run all down her white pants.
Up in the playroom, Alicia, Sebas, and Luz made a drawing of a witch and put it on the dart board. It was obvious to anyone but Isa that the witch represented her, but she insisted on joining in throwing darts at it, which cracked them up.
Then Isa tried to drop in on Nando, but he was busy having a big smoochfest with Ximena in his bedroom so she let them be. I don't think Nando ever got yelled at for having his novia in his bedroom! Maybe Fer didn't know about it.
Isa spent a lot of time being snarky and rude to Ana in a thin veneer of politeness, Ana was ostentatiously overpolite back, and Isa babytalks to everyone, including Nic and Fer.
Ana had a little meltdown and cried on Fanny's shoulder. Fanny agreed to stay and not leave Ana and the kids alone with the witch.
Fanny's horrid ex-boyfriend overheard Laura and Ximena talking about how Fanny's in love with the quesadilla woman's son, and he attacked Leon when he came to the school to see Fanny.
Johnny came to the house dressed as an exterminator and visited with Manuela and claimed to Manuela that he and Ana are siblings (she wondered how they know each other). Manuela told him that the patron is marrying the tarantula, which of course makes him think Ana is available to him again. He and Ana got in a fight in the driveway and Fer arrived just in time for the rescue.
Fer took Nando with him to buy an engagement ring. The clerk had weirdly yellow hair. Nando told Fer all about his relationship with Ximena and he thinks he's in love.

=====================
Some points from last night:
After giving Ana the book , Isabela makes a comment about them being able to get along in a civilized manner for the good of Alejandro and the kids. As soon as she leaves the house, Isabela is calling her "la nanaca". In a later meeting with Ana, Isabela calls Ana on her dry skin, poorly conditioned hair and dark circles under her eyes and then askis if she hasn't been sleeping well. Ana says she has been having some nightmares about a really creepy crawly thing and Isabela tells her that disappointments in love cause insomnia and that the book she gave her can help her forget it and let go of the impossible. Finally she suggest a corrector for her dark circles, but then says that she realizes Ana does not have the ability to get fine cosmetics but is sure if she goes to her local store she can find a knock-off. And so it goes.
Nando ends up forgiving Ximena and so he finally has a girl friend and Fernando approves.
Jennifer is all upset and Nico does not know why. She leaves him at lunch without a word about what is wrong. Nico is desperate he does not know what is going on.
Isabela convinces Fernando she needs an engagement party like tomorrow. She will arrange it all. She needs a credit card in her name and also the most important of all: an engagement ring. Yolanda is all excited about the monetary prospects and actually claps her little hands.
Isabela tries to make peace with Fanny for the good of her dad and siblings. She actually clenches her fist when Fanny does not give her a positive reaction.
Next stop for Isabela is with the rest of the kids where Isabela tries to broker a peace and ends up getting shot with water guns full of some sort of blue liquid that stains her white outfit and joioms the kids yelling "Muera!" "Die!" at a picture of a witch not realizing they mean her. The twins later apologize about the water guns with their fingers crossed.
Next stop for Isabela is with Alicia, where of course Isabela calls attention to her zits.
Mi Corazón Es Tuyo# 27
Isabela's rage after each failed attempt is apparent.
At the end, Fernando takes Nando with him to get the ring. Turns out that even though Fernando has lost contact with his bro Diego, Nando has been facetiming. with him and knows all about what he has been up to and him coming to the wedding. Fernando makes the comment that his bro still has not forgiven him. Nando asks him whatever happened between them that they don't talk. We never hear an answer.
Earlier, Johnny shows up as an exterminator and tells Manuela that Ana is his sister. Manuela is all over him.Fernando is not with a guy like Johnny being around his house and tells Ana he does not want to see him in his house again.
Also earlier, Ana confides in Fanny what is going on and how much she loves her dad and how desperate she is. Ana gets a call from her boss at Chicago that he needs her to dance tonight and when she hesitates he reminds her of her debt.

Mi corazon es tuyo, Capitulo 29*, Thursday – 08/28/2014 - Sushi and champagne make for a great expecting mother
(*I think that somewhere along the lines we made a mistake while adding up the episodes, because this is now episode 29 and yesterday should have been 28)
Read more »
Back to last night’s ending: Nico
asks Ana to speak to Jennifer, since they did meet at the hospital, after all.
Maybe they can become friends and Ana can convince Jen to come to the party.
Ana agrees to help and gives Don Nico a hug, just as Diego walks in. He tries
to insinuate that there is something going on between the two, but Ana is quick
to set things straight. Diego doesn’t fight it, he knows that Ana has something
going on with Fer, not with his father. Again, Ana denies everything, although
Nico does mumble that something did happen between them in the past. Ana has
had it with both of them, though, so she leaves, after asking Don Nico to
keep mum. Which will be very hard, since Diego wants to know the whole truth.
Viewerville observes how Diego
might now get the chance to do onto others what others have done onto him – to
want thy brother’s woman must be a Lascurain habit.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #166, 8/28/2014
De Que Ellas Son Rehenes, Son Rehenes o De Que No Hay Pila,
No Hay Pila
Read more »
All, it’s been my great pleasure recapping for you all. I’m
glad Kat started us on this road. For the most part, it has been delightful. I
especially want to thank my fellow recappers, and this fantastic group of
commenters! Now, on to the recap!
Rod has taken both Natalia and Brigitte as his hostages
(rehenes) at gunpoint, and left El and his team unarmed and handcuffed to the
stair railings. He’s ordered that a squad car be left running for him. He
smacks Nat unconscious in the back seat, and orders Brigitte to sit next to him
in the front. Brigitte begs him to let HER go, and to think of their child. He
tells her he couldn’t care less (me importa un comino) about her and the baby.
Plus, she betrayed him! She swears she didn’t betray him. He doesn’t believe it
Nat wakes up, assesses the situation, and decides to play
hero(ine). She puts a choke hold on Rod, causing him to swerve and then stop
the car. He breaks free of her hold and threatens to pistol whip her again. He
orders them both to the floor of the back seat, and threatens to shoot them if
they cause any more trouble. They both cower on the floor, and Nat cradles
Brigitte protectively. Nat finds her cell phone and stealthily makes a call.
El and his team are free and El calls Captain Vermudez. The
captain is NOT pleased and won’t even allow El to go inform Carmen in person
that her two daughters have been taken hostage by a lunatic. El goes anyway,
and breaks the terrible news to Carmen with a hug, while Mushroom listens sadly.
Carmen is inconsolable and demands that El return her daughters to her!

La Malquerida #3: 8/27/14: A Jump In Time!
Hola Amiguis. Finally we have a leap in time! We are still in the past for the first little bit, but it gets better. I Keep Holding On here is a little ear worm for Y'all.
Shall we begin?
We left off yesterday with Esteban declaring his love for Cris and he'd like to marry her. Cris wants to marry him, but wants Acacia to accept him. For now it is enough for him to be close to Cris and Cris doesn't have to promise him anything.
Esteban attempts to get Acacia to go to work with him. Of course, she doesn't want to go with him. Cris says she'll talk to her, but Esteban tells Cris to let her be, she's a child and he goes off to work.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #165 - Wed 8/27
De que casi todos tomaron malas decisiones, tomaron malas decisiones!
In the lawyer's office, Diego explains to Nat that he's owed her the divorce for a while and hands her the papers. I believe cake is also customary…no?
Eleazar downs a glass of champagne in an effort to exorcise the ghosts of Carmen's past enamorados. Carmen declares she's alllll his and after some steamy smooches, retreats to the bathroom to get…ahem…more comfortable. Unfortunately, El is still having auditory hallucinations of the exes in question and starts checking the room for them. Carmen, in a gorgeous purple negligee set gets El back on track. They fall to the bed and I seriously hope the audible commentary from Los Ex playing in the background while the animated hearts float by was only for us and not playing in El's head.
The lawyer explains that since they were both in agreement to divorce in the first place, all they have to do is sign. Natalia refuses to sign and walks out. Hey, now, I'm SURE there's a mandatory declaration of "No te voy a dar el divorcio!" (I'm not going to give you a divorce) that's supposed to go with that.

He wants a hint so she tells him three letters… beginning with A… he guesses Ana. … Well, glad to meet you, I am Diego Lascurain’. Ana is shocked, takes his helmet off to take a better look… sighs… then she reacts and changes attitude to ‘servant’… even tries to help him roll his bike in…

Mi corazon es tuyo Tuesday 08/26/14 Time Warner blows
Please feel free to discuss the episode, I got a text from my sister yesterday saying that our cable and internet were not working, I've had issues with TWC in the last few weeks-after I asked them for a lower rate. Well, I get home last night and call them, it seems that the rep I spoke with a few weeks ago was able to lower my rate-by cancelling my DVR service and my internet and making my account a basic one.
After arguing with customer service last night I finally gave up and have to call them again this morning. My apologies for all this, I had no way of watching the episode and am beyond angry that not only was I unable to get a recap up but that a company I've worked with for years basically called me a liar and said the conversation I had with their rep did not happen the way I represented it. This blows.

La Malquerida #2: 8/26/14: The Fight is On To Save the Hacienda. Love is in the Air
Hola Amiguis! Tonight I'm doing a shorter recap. I had trouble with this one because of the whiplash scene changes and rapid fire speech. I think I got most it it. I've got another earworm Where Does My Heart Beat Now?
Shall we begin?
We left off last night with Esteban asking Cristina not to sell the Hacienda. He loves these lands and will do everything he can to help her save this Hacienda.
Juliana and her son her in his room, and I have to say this son has a talent. He's painted some beautiful Irises I think. Norberto storms in and isn't having it. He feels this is effeminate of this son, and takes a knife and destroys the picture. Juliana tries to stop him to no avail. He tells his son, be a man and go work the land. He goes.

We left off last night with Esteban asking Cristina not to sell the Hacienda. He loves these lands and will do everything he can to help her save this Hacienda.
Juliana and her son her in his room, and I have to say this son has a talent. He's painted some beautiful Irises I think. Norberto storms in and isn't having it. He feels this is effeminate of this son, and takes a knife and destroys the picture. Juliana tries to stop him to no avail. He tells his son, be a man and go work the land. He goes.

Hasta El Fin del Mundo #7 20140826 Fashion Advice from a Guy Wearing a Mullet...Really?
Ripoll: While Sofie
sits in her chair, Patrick rubs her shoulders and gives her a little smooch on
the cheek. Instantaneously, she runs
away as if he’s got the cooties. Later,
she arrives in the chef’s office and tells him how much she enjoyed the
bonbons. They still taste like the very
first one that was made at Ripoll. Chef
Martin’s recipes will be world renown, she says. She gives the chef a kiss which is much more
action that Patrick got for giving her a massage.
After she leaves his office, Chef Martin laments that he is a fraud.
Sofie returns home to Snob Hill and
finds Alex waiting in her office. Alexa
wants to sell her share of the business.
Sofie says that Ripoll is a family business and they are not splitting it
up. Alexa says that Sophie will lose
control of the board if Alexa sells her stock.
Meanwhile, across the street, Grumpy Puss Paco is arguing
with Chava’s mother. He told her
that he called Chava a traitor, and she is not happy about it. Paco believes that Marisol, like her brother,
is a traitor for trying to earn a living instead of showing their loyalty to
him by starving to death.

De Que Te Quiero Te Quiero #164- Tuesday 8/26/14
De que se han olvidado del testamento (y otras cosas), se han olvidado
Soooo. Last DQTQTQ recap. Can't say as the show is going out on a high note and tonight's episode proves it, BUT I have really enjoyed the camaraderie and conversation! Thank you again, Kat for getting this started. And thanks to Karen and Vivi as well for jumping in when the marathons began! Thanks, too to all the folks who commented!!!!In the interest of full dislosure: I didn't take one stinkin' note and I didn't pay close attention. I've organized by "couples" (used loosely.)
Carmen and El
The get busy "reconciling", but a radio call from Cenudo breaks up their fun. Rod has robbed a drug store.
Karina and Alonso
Karina begs to help her get HOTscar back. They discuss how the baby daddy thing is going to work out with Oscar in the picture. Alonso wants it to be clear that HE is the father. Karina promises that the baby will know that Al is his dad and Oscar is her husband.

Hasta el Fin del Mundo #6 8/25/14 The Unstoppable Force meets an Immovable Object
I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! I only got a chance to see the first segment of the show online, the rest I had to watch as broadcast. Univision had the 'D' team on closed captions again so the captions were lagging behind the dialogue on this episode. I apologize ahead of time if I missed or misunderstood some of the dialogue. Please feel free to fill in or correct in the comments.
Let's get to it!
Armando gets fired from his new job and discovers that his old boss has bad-mouthed him to all the other auto mechanics. His employment prospects look bleak.
Chava escorts Sofia through the gauntlet of news photographers and reporters crowded around the Ripoll factory gate. The reporters shout questions at them as they plow through the crowd. Sofia agrees to talk to the reporters inside the gate.
Silvana hands Marisol a Ripoll uniform. Marisol thought she'd be working in the offices. Silvana nastily informs Marisol that since she hasn't finished high school, she isn't qualified for anything but working on the factory line. Silvana grabs the uniform back from Marisol, "That's the job you've got. Take it or leave it." Marisol puts her hands out to take the uniform.

Hola Amiguis. Yes, I am recapping this TN. Before I begin, I want to let you know that I recap by ear and the actors' body language. I use no captions whatsoever. I have a little earworm for your listening pleasure as you read the recap, How Do You Mend
Shall we begin.
We begin with a loving family of Alonso, Cristina his wife and Acacia their daughter. It is clear they love this Hacienda. Cristina takes a picture of Alonso and Acacia who are about to go off riding. Cristina reminds them not to come back late because they are having guests for dinner, Juliana and Norberto. Acacia and Alonso ride all over the Hacienda and he tells her all about the land. It has been passed down to him from his great grandparents, his grandparents and then his parents. It has been in the family a very long time and one day it will be hers.
Meantime, Norberto and his sons attend a cockfight. One son isn't into it but the other is.

Lascuráin
Mansion: In the kitchen, Bruno bursts Manuela's other bubble
when he tells her that their boss will be marrying Isabruja. She is
incredulous, asking “He's going to marry that bloodsucking bitch?
How is that possible?” She is just as displeased with this idea
as everyone else and rants about it. Bruno then suggests she pack
her suitcase because Isabitch will certainly hand her a pink slip.

THE WISDOM OF THE DRAGON
Subtitled: I Do Not Make Any Of This Up
Week Seven – Mon Aug 18
A Dragon must have enough pockets to carry listening-device detectors AND great big revolvers.
A Dragon can reassure a damsel to not believe everything other people say about her; but he is likely to ignore that advice when it comes to what people say about her to him.
A Dragon might be able to be the younger sibling of a Black Falcon; unlikely in nature, but in the realm of telenovelas, a real possibility.

He used the Editorial to launder money that came from his other felonies and criminal associations… (DA asks her if she has evidence, since she was the one suspected guilty of those felonies) She says but of course, there is a notebook full of numeric codes of all his overseas accounts… encoded codes from his criminal associates, information about his relationship with those criminals… which I can perfectly decipher/decode…

Mi Corazon es Tuyo #25 When doing the right thing is doing the wrong thing.
Call out to Cynderella. Male Stripper alert. See the first 2 minutes.
Our story continues where we left off, with Fernando telling Ana that he’s going to marry Isabela. And she is shocked and embarrassed for having thought that a mere employee would be asked to marry him, apologizes quickly, and leaves before he can explain. As she leaves, she loses her shoes, he chases after her and finally catches up in order to explain. She absolutely will not let him, cutting him off at every start, and runs away. I absolutely hate when they don’t let someone explain themselves. What would it hurt to hear the explanation?

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #5: 8/22/14: We Are Family, I've Got All My Sisters With Me!
Hola Amiguis! I have another earworm for you in light of what occured during this epi. Sisters, Sisters!
I didn't take notes watching so if I missed anything please let me know. Take a look at these sisters! They look like close sisters don't they? But pictures don't tell the whole story do they? Shall we begin?
We start where we left off last episode. The arguement at the Ripoll table. With all the money that Alexa has spent in Spain, she must have lived like a Queen for four years. Sofia advises Alexa to go back there if she wants to. We'll get back to them in a tic.
Chava, Marisol and Lupe are at table too. Chava would really like it if Marisol would go back to school. Marisol argues with Chava and tells him it's a new century, not back in the day. She wants to earn her own money to get what she wants when she wants it. Chava is thinking of selling his race car. Here Lupe puts her foot down. Chava worked so hard for that car, and someday he'll get back to racing.

MA and Saul argue at fruteria office, MA can talk real fast when he is angry… he is mocking A-hole’s tone of voice… has been talking like that since he was a kid per MA, now I hate him even more… MA can’t wait to be able to beat the crap out of A-hole. Saul says hold your impulses… the ‘tipejo’ has a restriction order against you… wait until after the issue of the clause… MA says that’s the problem, each day I doubt more that A-hole will fulfill the promise to get away from Lupe and Emi… otherwise, why the restriction order??

(its kind of like raffle tickets). Rita says the day is getting close she will return to the US. DA asks her why so soon? Rita asks DA if he has thought about whether he is going with her or not.
MA tells Saul that he has been thinking of what Vilma said about the notebook… if she said not even A-hole would think of it, it must be very obvious place… Saul says what if he hid it in office? MA says its more probable she hid it in his house… if the house is empty, no one will find it.

De Que Te Quiero Te Quiero #162, 8/22/2014
De que son adolescentes, son adolescentes
I didn't take notes and I probably should have. Please fill in. Oh, and there was no mention of the will.
I'll just start with Rod, Al and the tribunal (for lack of a better word.) Al reports that Rod is perfectly responsible for his acts and should rot. Rod continues with his act. "Oh yeah?" he sneers "If I'm so OK, then why do I see Dead Al standing right behind you?" Rod says some other things and Al is pushed to his limits and starts punching Rod. Way to go, dude. Ruin the case. Rod is carted off to the hospital. I'm sure this is setting up for lax security and an escape. Al gets yelled at for beating up on Rod.
El and Luz manage to catch up with the Garcias. They happen upon Paolo and Mara (who are still attempting a little hubba hubba in the woods.) El announces his move to Mérida. Carmen haz a sad. Lupita is also upset and El tells her he'll always care for her. I seem to remember Luz says something to El about at least letting Lupita know he's not really moving, but El is sure Lupita will squeal. Carmen has to believe that he's really leaving.

Weekend Discussion: To the Manor Born -- How Much Does That Really Matter?
The class distinction that happens in telenovelas obviously fuels more than a couple of plot points per series. In the Americas there are no titles like those in Europe such as Sir or Dame for KBEs; Baron, Count, etc., in other countries, and there are equivalents in the Middle East. Here in the Americas it's usually about money or where you went to school.
In all our stories these things are used by those who choose to ignore that all human beings are the same in all important things. But so do people do this in life and it extends beyond how much gold is in your parents' coffers when you're born.
A college buddy of mine worked for a major global corporation for a number of years. He was smarter and more articulate than many of his colleagues. However, he didn't attend an Ivy League university and isn't a WASP; he's a first-generation American of Irish Catholic parents. That alone was going to keep him out of the board room. He didn't care about that once he got to the advertising department of his company where creativity was valued.
Do you think this is outdated or have you witnessed this in your own lives? Have you beaten it on occasion?
Be articulate, amigos.

Armando, ever the gentleman, asks her if she is okay cause he didn't know about the car. She just wants to go home. Armando tells Alexa he just loves this car, her Papa must have been great. Alexa asks if Armando is a chofer. Nopis, he's a mechanic and explains the racing circuit. She knows all about it she says. She went to races in Monaco.
While Greta is giving Miguelina hell, Fausto in the back is giving Lucas hell. Fausto has dealt with little ruffians like him before, grabs him by the scruff of his neck and throws him out. Kudos to Fausto!

Hashtag#: No, It’s The Other Woman!
Cap #24
We’ll skip the old and jump to the new…… as Fanny takes another ride on the wild side, literally, and is introduced to the scary world of public transportation. She and Leon go to school together on THE BUS.
Meanwhile, Ana, still troubled by Don Fernando’s giving her the cold shoulder, tries to weasel the reason out from Nando. He refuses to betray his father’s trust. Ana has another Tinker Bell moment in which I believe she’s telling herself it isn’t her fault that ol’ Don Hielo has made a sudden reappearance.

A Tale of Three
Campsites
Campsite #1: Luz & El
El and Luz continue to search for the Garcias, while El
rehearses the many different ways he can tell Carmen that he loves her. He’s
pleased to learn that Carmen has not yet been told about his work transfer. Unfortunately,
neither Luz nor Lupita realized just how large the comet viewing area is, and
the lack of cell phone service means that they are unable to coordinate to meet
up.
El uses old fashioned tracking skills to find them. He sees
the smoke from their lunch camp fire in the distance, but when he and Luz arrive
at the site, the Garcias have already moved on an hour ago, by El’s estimates.
With night falling, El decides to call it a day and set up camp for the night.
Luz is disappointed, but mother and son end up bonding and reminiscing, and the
woman El says I love you to that night is his mama Luz. As they snuggle down in
their sleeping bags for the night, they hear the faint sounds of a cumbia beat
floating through the air. El smiles.
Campsite #2: The Garcias & Company
Paolo’s mini green car is so loaded down with camping gear that
it’s not a surprise when a tire blows out. Since the Garcias always take lemons
and make lemonade, Carmen decides it’s the perfect time to fire up the grill
and make lunch, play some soccer, and chillax. The Gracias even convince Irene
to stay, with the promise that she can borrow some clothes from Abdul to suit
her boyish (caballona) figure.
The Mushroom does his best to avoid having fun. And there
are plenty of reasons for him to frown. 1) An errant soccer ball knocks over the
lunch camp fire, topples the food to the ground, and starts a large blaze. The
Gracias put it out and keep on moving to the final camp site. 2) A flare (sent
up by El in an effort to alert the Garcias to their location) falls out of the
sky and right onto Abdul’s tent, setting it ablaze. The Garcias decide to all
pile into Irene’s giant tent, leaving Mushroom all alone in his tent. 3) The
sky is too cloudy for the comet to be seen. The Garcias decide to dance cumbia
around the camp fire instead. 4) The sky opens up and starts pouring rain. The
Garcia’s snuggle up and keep each other warm in their tent, while Mushroom
freezes in his. Carmen allows him to share their tent, as long as he stays as
far away from her as possible! The Mushroom sulks.

Hasta el Fin del Mundo Recap #3-The Dress, The Dame(s), and The Discord that Detained Chava from Unemployment.
My computer keeps crash dumping so I will type this at school and have it read around 12:00 and 1:00.
EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-EDIT-
Sofia and Chava
Sofia lets Chava know he begins immediately and he is happy to oblige. Greta intervenes and says she has not finished interviewing him but Sofia insists he is OK and lays down the rules; no high velocity or victory cries since they're informal. He tones it down and they head out. Greta dislikes Chava since he's- Fausto interrupts and says Attractive, Sympathetic and of a Enchanting Smile. Greta says he is ordinary. Fausto suggests she has some chocolate Miguelina prepared since it will change her mind; Greta is up for the chocolate but her mind won't be changed.
Patricio's Cockamamie Scheme
In an alleyway of sorts are various thugs and a familiar face who comes out of a car; it's Patricio who has come to let them know what's up with the plan; They will track Sofia, kidnap her, bring her to a room or location of sorts and then he will come with cash which I'm guessing most likely will be a ploy and lead to Pat fighting to save Sofia. Sofia is to make it out of the kidnapping COMPLETELY unscathed physically and when they're fighting the thugs aren't fight by much and avoid hurting Pat's pretty little face. They know how to get the job done. They go their separate ways (for now. OK so his plan is save Sofia from harm. There's something else fishy about this plan but IDK how to word it. I mean it's supposed to make him look like a hero but right after they get to the rendezvous, Pat is immediately going to go in and save her? Wouldn't Sofia wonder how he knew she was in peril? Yeah that's how to word it.)
Lupe and Irma
Lupe is getting down like the old lady from Soul Train when Irma comes in to bitch about her troubles. Lupe offers to watch her son and says it would be sweet to have him around when Irma lets out the biggest bitching and yells that she came looking for advice and not be barrida y regada (IDK man, IDK. Also, From this day forward Irma will be know as IrkMe since she irks me. I'm getting a Karina from DQTQTQ vibe from her and Armando is a competent Alonso right?)

Sofia and Chava
Sofia lets Chava know he begins immediately and he is happy to oblige. Greta intervenes and says she has not finished interviewing him but Sofia insists he is OK and lays down the rules; no high velocity or victory cries since they're informal. He tones it down and they head out. Greta dislikes Chava since he's- Fausto interrupts and says Attractive, Sympathetic and of a Enchanting Smile. Greta says he is ordinary. Fausto suggests she has some chocolate Miguelina prepared since it will change her mind; Greta is up for the chocolate but her mind won't be changed.
Patricio's Cockamamie Scheme
In an alleyway of sorts are various thugs and a familiar face who comes out of a car; it's Patricio who has come to let them know what's up with the plan; They will track Sofia, kidnap her, bring her to a room or location of sorts and then he will come with cash which I'm guessing most likely will be a ploy and lead to Pat fighting to save Sofia.

Pobres, Wednesday night
EmiliAhole gets to infuriate Chuy by obnoxiously talking about leaving with his dad.
Mike tries to get the book of evidence from Mini. Good luck. She swears on some grim portraits of her grandfathers that she doesn't know, then proceeds to sexily pin him up against the window blinds. He amusingly struggles to escape.
Ahole himself oozes his greasy self into the Chuy house to drag off lil EmiliAhole. The little twerp reveals the phone his dad has been using to communicate with him behind mom's back. Basically, Ahole has threatened Lupita, saying if she doesn't come live with him he'll tell the judge she was neglectful. Also she understandably doesn't want the kid to be alone with his awful dad. But I say that ship has sailed. The twerp already sucks, let him rot!
Nepo has a confrontation with some young dudes I don't recognize.They make fun of Diego and he flies off the handle and must be restrained.
Mike tries to talk Lupita out of leaving with her son. He doesn't think the punk is in danger of becoming an "Alejito," but meh.
In the devil's den, EmiliAhole is delighted, Ahole makes some jabs about how great it is to see Lupita without suffering the odor of poverty.
AS is on the phone with someone, busily abusing the authority that she wangled bi forging her son's signature. Leo wanders in and rightly assumes that she's up to no good skulking in the kitchen. He tells her she should celebrate the impending arrival of her first nietuqi, but she's not buying it.
Mike tries to get into Ahole's place, and we are treated to the two of them spouting insults at each other for a bit.
Guendy and Rita gang up on Nepo about Diego and how he should accept that his kid has different dreams than his dad.
OMG NEPO COMES TO GUENDY'S ON HORSEBACK FOR A TWILIGHT MARIACHI SERENADE! it barely looks like him! She cracks up and loves it. He even gets the horse to turn prancing little circles!
Alejo teaches his son to be a jerk to the servant lady! If you don't like the food, send it back!
Nepo has a nice moment with his son. He apologizes and says he just wants to support and protect him. Meh, ok!
Alejo is reminded that he only has a few more days to comply with the will. Diego calls him the best dad in the world! He is rewarded with some fatherly advice. Guendy comes for a big family hug, it's all sweet, and even the fruit-stand flunky squeezes into the hug!
Mike visits Vilma in jail. He makes a good point - who are you protecting, Vilma? Alejo left you to rot! Tell me where that booklet is. She gives him a super lame hint - It's where no one would ever suspect!
Once they're alone together, Alejo wastes no time reminding Lupita of their nights of passion and gets a little handsy! He grabs her and gets super gross. She literally kicks him to the curb. She grabs him by the hair and beats him up. EmiliAhole walks in, sees it, and gives her a high five! Hah! He's excellently injured, and she celebrates when Alejo limps around the corner.
Minerva's mom signs over her shares to... Saul? She insists that the money is hers and hers alone!
Despite the beating he suffered, he manages to drag Lupita and the kid to a dinner with the board of executives dudes to show them off! The board is impressed, but reminds them that all three need to be present for the official meeting (about the clause).
Frida goes on a date with Tizoc. He tells her he loves her a ton and they dance. Whelp, guess he's been rehabilitated.
Mike tells Lupita what he learned about the location of the booklet. Surprisingly, she finds the thing under Ahole's bed! The cliffhanger, duh, is that he walks in and finds her in his bedroom acting suspiciously!
See y'all later, it's been fun!

Mi corazon es Tuyo, #23, 20 Aug 2014...Fernando commits the # 1 IDIOT MOVE of a man in his middle age crisis EVA!!! Bruno gets some truth serum under coaching from Ana and Nico
Refrito: Fer tells Nando what he feels for IsaSkank and they talk about Ana… exceptional… a bit different from Isa or big Fanny, but Ana gave Fer back the will to live… up until the moment he learned he was going to be a daddy… Ana is a wonderful angel who changed his existence.
At Lasc mansion, Ana introduces herself and the kids… Manuela almost messes up the whole plan… twice. They tell grannie that the painting is a cousin of Manuela’s… Ana says the story is long.
Lo Nuevo:
Nando asks Fer what he will do… no idea… no, that is not true. Have to do what is correct, the straight, ethical, perfect thing to do… you have to be aware of the consequences (of what you do). Nando reminds him of a variable that turns everything incorrect, imperfect… love. (now, who is the grown up and who is the teenager here? Sadly, it seems the melting process melted the brain cells in Don Hielo's head!!)
Back to Lasc manor… Luz tells grannie she wants to be like her mom (points to the painting) who is in heaven… everyone skips a beat… Manuela tries to fix things, but overdoes it a bit. Manuela tells grannie she is chef as a career, a very famous fine chef.
Back to Malinalco. Nando is talking about Ximena and how she used him, and what he felt… Fer says you are right when you say love is the variable that turns the world upside down… Nando tells Fer that Ximena apologized and then kissed him… and he admits it was his FIRST kiss… what did you do next? … kick her out… but have to say it was…. It was GREAT!... (Fer remembers his first kiss with Ana and smiles)
At Lasc manor… Nico reminds Ana what we are doing is for Bruno… but… it is wrong… Ana agrees that one should not fake who you are not…. Least of all in front of someone you love. Nico says he hurts to see that someone is so uncomfortable with themselves that they have to lie to their mom.
At dinner table, Bruno a.k.a. the man of the house and Manuela are talking to grannie. Grannie loves seeing them in love… (grannie has a name! its Ofelia!) Manuela keeps whispering bedmanners promises to Bruno and pinching him… LOL!
Luz questions to Ana why they are lying to grannie… Ana says there are some lies that are white lies, to not hurt others like in this case Bruno’s mom. Lichita turns it on Ana about the lie denying the kiss between Ana and Fer.. Lichita tells Ana to admit it… Ana keeps talking about brushing Luz’s hair.
At Malinalco… Fer asks Nando what about Briana, Alicia’s friend? She is a bit young… and he still is thinking of Ximena. Honestly, he loves Ximena. But he can’t date her after what she did to him. He likes Ximena and she likes him… but that’s where it stops. They laugh that it seems they are living parallel stories. ‘de tal palo tal astilla’ (the apple does not fall far from the tree)… Fer repeats to Nando he loves him very much… Nando says me too… and thank you so much for this moment… (embrace, kiss)

De Que Te Quiero Te Quiero #160 Wednesday 8/20/14
De Que me importa un rábano, me importa un rábano
Disagree with me if you will, but nothing happened.
They all got ready to go camping. The end.
But if I must, here's a rápido recap.
Paul sees an internet article about a comet.
Brat whines about working.
Lupita imagines Carmen's rage if she found out Lupita lied and told El that Carmen was with Paul.
El wonders how to get Carmen back. He rehearses "te amo."
Rod is taken from his cell for an evaluation. He stinks. They're taking him to the showers.
Paul interrupts a family B!tch about Brat fest with his telescope. Somehow a huge camping trip is planned.
Al talks to Rod. Rod tries to play crazy.
Lupita is pithed about the trip and doesn't want to go.
Rod asks Al about Brat and makes a lewd comment about her coming for a conjugal visit.
Lupita tells her mom about the lie she told El (that Paul and Carmen were an item.) Carmen is not moved. She doesn't want to be with a man who doesn't trust her.
El and Al talk about the evaluation. El just wants Rod in jail for a long time.
Rod calls Brat from jail and tells her she'll be back in jail with him soon.
Diego and Simona are still trying to decide on a location. He sees the internet article about the stupid comet.
Camping plans. Camping plans. Irene had a successful meeting with a boutique with locations all over Mexico. Camping plans. Paolo and Mara talk about *whispers in ear* en pleno bosque (in the middle of the forest?) Camping plans. Paul b!tches about the family cramping his peaceful comet watching style and turning it into a pachanga. Hell, they'll probably bring cumbia music. Carmen reminds Lupita to pack the Cumbia CDs and tells her she can't tell El where they are going. More camping plans. Irene and Nat shop for too much camping gear.
Rod provokes Al.
Lupita fibs about dead camera batteries so Carmen has to leave. She runs to Luz.
Diego shops for camping supplies.
Lupita and Luz cook up a plan in which Luz will ask El to take her to see the comet.
Al wants to be objective. He really doesn't think Rod is crazy. He calls Paul for a consult. They meet. Paul thinks Rod is completely responsible for his actions. Let him rot (I took some liberties with that line.) Meanwhile, Rod hopes everyone has believed his crazy act.
Luz call El and tells him about wanting to go camping and see the comet. He's on to her. He knows something's up. He goes investigating and sees the boys with all the camp gear. He figures it's a perfect place to confess his love to Carmen.
Simona packs and since Diego didn't think he should give her any hints everything she packs is kind of inappropriate.
Everyone ignores Brat.
Al reports his findings to Vicente. Vicente is saddened by the news that Rod will have to serve a sentence in jail, but agrees it's what Rod deserves.
Everyone finally gets on the road (Paolo's car looks like it belongs to the Joads.) El trained in Israel?? Qué? Simona is still asking where they are going. She doesn't seem to happy when she gets there.
Paolo gets a flat. Carmen wants to relax and fix some food and enjoy. Paul is miffed. Lupita panics. How is she going to alert Luz where they are?? There's no cell phone coverage.
Luz is with El wondering how she'll find out where the others are. El mentally rehearses "te amo." Luz lets it slip that Carmen still doesn't know about El's plans to move to Mérida. El thinks that's great. He can let her think she's losing him, THEN spring the "te amo" on her.
Simona has allergies.

Babies ruin EVERYTHING Mi Corazon Es Tuyo #22 08/19/2014
Hi friends, Time Warner is screwing with me again so I had no chance to watch the episode until this morning, it's gonna be a quick one!
Let us start where we left off yesterday, Ana and Fernando are kissing and are seen by Luz, who thinks this is major, major news and she runs to wake up the rest of the kids, man if someone woke me for that I'd be a very unhappy camper!
The kids come down to the living room and begin to question Ana and Fernando, were they kissing? Ana and Fer, deny, deny,deny, which is kind of horrible because they are calling little Luz a liar, the younger kids get sent up to bed and only Fanny, Nando, and Alicia remain, they ask their dad if he was kissing Ana and he maintains that they did not kiss but the kids are not buying it.

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #2 : 8/19/14: The Good, The Bad, The Badder and the Ugly
Recap by Cynderella
Uptown: Patrick awaits Sophia’s answer to his marriage proposal. Before she speaks, Greta, her mother, tells her that people don't have to get married. It's now acceptable to live in sin.
Downtown: Somewhere in the ghetto, as usual, the poor people are dancing. Who can blame them? Anyways, it’s Marisol’s 18th birthday party and she doesn't seem too happy about the guest list. Her mother invited all of the geriatric people in the neighborhood. Mom tries to cheer her up by giving her a present, but that doesn’t do the job either. She wants Chava! Suddenly, a horn blares and the crowd roars! Chava strolls in singing, accompanied by more old people playing instruments and wearing white mariachi suits. Oh joy! Nothing says PAR-TAY to an 18 year old like her middle-aged brother serenading her along with mariachis who are old enough to be her grandfather. Marisol and the crowd join in the singing and Chava wraps it up. A few more people give her gifts. Matias, the guy with the soul patch gives her a huge teddy bear and encourages everyone to have a good time! He announces that Chava and Armando are
unemployed. Well, the party is over. He's bummed the poor people out and that's not hard to do. Later, Chava and his mother discuss how the neighborhood business owners have been selling their shops. Tulio, his boss was got an offer he couldn't refuse.

Que pobres tan ricos Tuesday August 19: Alejo takes Lupita to court
Our internet is out, I wrote this on my lap top and sent it to my phone by Bluetooth
I liked.. seeing Tizoc telling Ana Sofia again: "We'll love our baby a ton. My dad raised three kids much happier than yours who grew up in a palace of money."
Because Alejo needs to prove he didn't force Lupita to marry him, he has his stooge lawyers draw up an accusation against her: that she has abandoned the conjugal home.

La Malquerida Starts August 25th. Pobres Recappers Phone Home..........
We have a new TN starting on August 25th, this coming Monday, that will be replacing Que Pobres Tan Ricos, entitled La Malquerida. If you would like to recap this TN, please email our Blog Mom at caray@mappamundi.com or me at navygurl75@gmail.com. I am going to give you some background on this TN first and then a brief synopsis with pictures of the cast. Shall we begin?
La Malquerida is based on a play and not the usual remake after remake of a previously done TN. This TN is based on a book of the same name as the TN by the Spanish Author Jacinto Benavente. He was a Nobel Prize Winner for Literature. The book was published in 1913. There were two movies based on this play. The first was an American Silent Film, entitled "Passion Flower" and was released in 1921. It starred Norma Talmadge and Courtenay Foote. The second movie was a Mexican Production, released in 1949, entitled La Malquerida and it starred Dolores del Rio and Pedro Armendariz. The Producer of this TN, Jose Alberto Castro has stated that he based this TN on the book alone and not the movies. Now on to the synopsis. This will be a barebones synopsis so as to avoid spoilers.

The Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez is abuzz with activity. Rows of gleaming semi trucks arrive with their cargo. Race cars are unloaded from the trailers. Mechanics go to work wielding wrenches, jacks, gauges and polishing cloths.
Race car number 86 moves down the pit lane and onto the track. The roar of the engines gets louder, the tires squeal in a fight between pavement and centrifugal force. The drivers shift gears, the heat from the track rises. We can almost smell fuel and burning rubber as the cars scream by. Chava Cruz presses in the clutch and shifts gears, then accelerates. His pit crew cheers him on. "Faster! Make them eat your dust!" Chava's mind and body coordination becomes almost a dance: clutch, shift, gas pedal, turn. Again and again. Chava speeds under the checkered flag. At trackside his pit crew checks the stopwatch and cheers. Chava pulls into the pit and stops. He removes the steering wheel, lets down the window netting and climbs from the car. He greets Armando, "You're the best mechanic! We're going to win BIG!"
Large disks of chocolate move down a conveyor belt in a dance of their own. Workers in white coats wrap the disks in paper and put them in yellow boxes. Wait... those disks look familiar. Is that Abulita? Yes! I have some of that in my pantry! (We're getting our product placement out of the way in the first five minutes. Thank you Nestle'.) Another worker calls to Sofia who's been inspecting the production line. "Maestro Coria is waiting for you to taste the new product." Sofia makes her way toward him. "Let's go Matias." She praises the workers, "Good work, girls!" and follows him off the production floor.

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #158 - Mon 8/18
De que muchas corazones se están rompiendo, se están rompiendo
Simona asks Diego what Nat was talking about in the office. Diego explains that Rodrigo did a lot of stuff to break them up, but it doesn't matter, it's over, and he's ready to move on.
Alonso goes over the hospital to ask Oscar, aka HOTscar what his intentions are toward Karina. Reminder, Alonso…you're the baby daddy, not Karina's daddy.
Paul wants Carmen to be more supportive of Brigitte, but Carmen is just tapped out of compassion. El leaves Paul and Carmen to talk. Paul's surprised about Brigitte as well, but he doesn't want to just leave her to her fate. Carmen doesn't think she can handle it and Paul pats her ineffectually until she cries on his shoulder. He looks uncomfortable.
HOTscar tells Alonso he felt sorry for her, because she was so alone, and then started calling her. He apologizes for thinking Karina was "alone" since Alonso's presence proves she's not.
Paul goes out to tell El that Carmen doesn't want to talk to Brigitte. El understands her heartbreak, having watched the way Carmen raised all the kids. He asks Paul to help Carmen as much as he can. Paul wants to see Brigitte…

Qué Pobres, Lunes 8/18/14 (#160): «Permesso»
Not a whole lot of laughs this evening, but the best moment for me was when Tizoc said "Permesso" to AS.
Reruns:
Saul hitting on Rita; Trofeo spiking AS's coffee; Leo and Diego (who, I notice, is now leaving his shirt unbuttoned like Leo does); Ahole lies to Emiliano about making peace with Mati.
Isela insinuates to Mini that she's got something on Ahole.
New stuff:
Ahole tells Lupe that she can have her divorce, and sole custody of Emi, just as soon as he's reinstated as president of the Editorial. Lupe points out that this was their original deal and he reneged, so why should she believe him this time? He gets angry, recalling that Mati spoiled it the last time by showing up safe and sound. Then he recovers and remembers that he's supposed to be sad that Mati is dead.
Frida chats with Emi. She tells him that Mati is in heaven with her husband and her sons and Emi's grandmother Marce too. Emi tells Frida she'll be a great mom someday!
Isela and Minerva attend the wake. Mini is wearing a super-sexy dress; MA has to peel her off of him. Isela taunts AS about their rivalry to become president of the foundation. Three sheets to the wind and counting, AS calls Isela a rude bleeped name several times. (The Spanish captions don't say what it is; the English captions say "hag.")
Nepo arrives with a band to serenade Mati personally. (Is that really him singing? They should have had him sing much earlier.) Irked by Ahole's histrionics, Leo pulls him off of Mati's coffin so that he can sob on it himself. Ahole protests the "vulgar" music, not realizing (until MA informs him) that Mati loved this kind of music. Frida adds that this is what Mati would have wanted for her farewell party. Ahole dramatically pulls Leo off the coffin to resume his own loud outburst.
Saul corners Rita. He flirts with her; she tries to keep up with trite conversation. Gwendy watches, stunned, as Saul trots out all of his best moves at his best friend's grandmother's funeral.
In front of the former members of the board-of-zombies, MA tells Ahole, "not long ago, Mati said that Aureliano wanted to surprise us a few more times with new lessons to learn." Ahole replies, "how dare you mention the clause at our grandmother's funeral!" "Excuse me, but I didn't mention the clause. YOU mentioned the clause!"
MA thanks the zombies for attending and says the burial tomorrow is family-only. Ahole puts on a show for don Tulio et al. He tells MA he won't be at the burial. He can't take it. MA says that's no problem, because Mati wanted Ahole to take care of the divorce tomorrow anyway, so why not respect her last wish and stay away from the Menchacas forever?

TELEMUNDO Y MÁS -- Reina de Corazones: week of August 18, 2014 - PAGE ONE
Okaaaaay! Welcome to a new week of discussions about our favorite "novela loca." Last week had fantastic recaps and comments ranging from the law of spousal privilege to who would call their boss, "El Supremo," plus there was our weekly compilation of the Wisdom of the Dragon by Anita and an updated mystery list from Vivi. Speaking of compilations, here
is a link to last week's compiled recaps on Dropbox. (for some reason the text does not start right under the title. You have to scroll down to the next page.)
Sadly, though, we will only get four days worth of our fix since Thursday's capitulo is pre-empted by the Premios tu Mundo presentation. Bwahahahaha! If the volume of comments merit a second page, I will post it later in the week.
Can't wait....

Cap. 20
• Alicia and classmate are home intending to practice a cheer leading routine for the lacrosse team. The two girls bump into Nando who’s on his way out. Classmate sees hearts and flowers for Nando, still in neck brace and the retro head-warming golf cap, who is heading off to who knows where and for who knows what (not that any of us in Viewerville cares a whit whether we know what or where …..) Nando is perturbed and tells Ali and friend to watch where they’re going.

Lo que la vida me robó, Friday, 8/15/14: El gran final -- Always go to other people's funerals, otherwise they won't come to yours.*
*Yogi Berra
Mafalda's* dad tries to teach her a life lesson and ends up getting scolded for ruining a good story:
Papá: ¿Ves? Ponemos la semillita, la tapamos...La regamos un poquito...y dentro de unos días tenemos una hermosa planta.
Mafalda (muy indignada): ¡Ya tuviste que contarme el final!
[Dad: You see? We put in the little seed, we cover it up...We water it a bit...and in a few days, we have a beautiful plant.
Mafalda (very indignant): You had to spoil it by telling me how it ends, didn't you!]
*From the classic Argentine comic strip by Quino, excerpted from the collection, 10 Años con Mafalda.
Unlike Mafalda's dad, we've waited patiently for the chance to tell you how it ends. And here it is, brought to you tonight by Madelaine, Eli, Gloria, Julia Rold and NovelaMaven. [If you listen very hard, you can hear Urban, elna june and Elvira kibitzing in the background.]
By the way, we loved Act 2 so much, we decided to give you two different versions of it.
By the way, we loved Act 2 so much, we decided to give you two different versions of it.
So, my friends, roll your EZ-come EZ-go chairs up to your favorite table on the Patio of Lowered Expectations, and enjoy the show. Just don't try this at home!

Que Pobres tan Ricos... #159... Mati's farewell... A-hole believes he is at the finish line... but Mati still had some aces up her sleeve...
Isela swears to Mini that even if she spent money out loud, they would never stop being rich…
Mati and AS have a bit of emotional convo. Roberto was a gentleman… but a mother knows what she has and her son was useless and never valued what he had. AS admits he had it all… Mati admits that was their mistake, to give them everything without asking anything in return. Mati recognizes Rob was not faithful either. Mati tells AS that part of her bitterness is due to that. Even if you deny it. Mati asks AS to not waste what she has left of her life… even though you have your status back, I know you are not happy. AS argues she is. Mati says when my grandchildren move on, you will be alone. So use the opportunity and enjoy your children while you have them. Please hear the words of this old woman… not for anything but because I have more experience. Mati leaves AS in tears.
Lupe and Emi… she is ranting at him, he swears she won’t let him see his dad. You don’t love him, but I will keep seeing him, even if you get mad at me.
Mati goes to see Frida (this already sounds like goodbye speeches/final lessons of life) Frida tells Mati that she is ready to go on trip to see all of Mexico.. Mati tells her she has to stay and deal with a couple things and then will catch up with her in a few days. She has to leave another issue resolved. She wants to go on that one trip she has left feeling totally at peace. (oh my…)
Frida and Mati tell AS they are heading to Switzerland… AS has a fit with the idea. Mati tells her it is a pleasure trip they have been looking forward to… Leo and MA are also at table. MA is curious, why the idea of the trip. Mati says she has traveled with MA to London and with Leo to Broadway… AS rants that Mati has never considered her opinion… MA can only wish them to enjoy themselves. Mati says no circumstances can separate people. With Love, you can face anything.
At Menchacas, Chuy catches up with Lupe. He did not want to say anything in front of Emi, but he did not like the fact that Emi left school with A-hole without her permission.
At clinic again, Mati is back in, nagging that she does not want more tests… MA asks her to let them pamper and take care of her. Mati says ‘only because you ask, but I feel grrrrrreat!!’.
Carm talks to Lupe… when your dad finds out A-hole and you are married… Lupe is still hopeful her divorce will be done today and she won’t need to tell her family.
Frida and the nerd friend at school. She tells him she is going on trip. He knew she would not fulfill her promises… he should have known better…
Doctor and Mati… she has to rest a bit before leaving… Doctor leaves her alone.. (YIKES!!!) we see nurse legs … but hands are a bit too big for a nurse woman… nurse puts a pill on her hand… gives her a glass of water.
Nurse leaves the room… and we find out it is A-hole.
Something happened or the pill is slow to take effect. MA joins Mati… she is a bit tired. He rolls her chair out of the place running LOL!
At RP house, Leo is watching Frida pack. He seems to want to go along. She says he has the commitment to help MA out. He says not same option A trip to Europe vs Option B staying and working.
Mati and MA share a cute moment looking at a spectacular view of the mountains and fountains… MA glad she is better. He sees her happier every day. She says she is at peace, Life has allowed her to recover not only her sanity but the time to enjoy her loved ones. MA says he was pained to be away from loved ones for so long. She says what matters is that you came back fully grown and mature.. .now you can care for your family. MA says almost everyone accepts him as before… only Emi he is still working on. Mati says we are all one great family (the Menchacas and RPs). That is the biggest valuable we take from life, the love of our loved ones.
Leo and Frida are still packing. She brings up the subject of his relationship. Leo says he spoke to Mati and she was taking it ok. Frida says we have a great grandma. Leo can’t close the suitcase. He nags about it and leaves. Frida finds an envelope that says ‘Fridita, don’t open this letter until you get to your destiny’… (yikes!!)
Mati and MA… she now talks as if she is saying goodbye… she then talks about Aureliano and her always wanted to have a daughter. Mati says ‘the more love you are capable of giving, life will be as beautiful as you want to dream it to be’. (Mati dies right there on her wheelchair, MA doesn’t even notice… he is saying it is a great feeling of peace…) (we hear a song)…MA gets desperate and yells for help. (editor’s note… we will miss you at the patio, dear Mati…)
Frida has the envelope in her hands when she gets the call from MA… she is shocked, puts hand over mouth.
At hospital, Leo and Frida arrive to hug MA… AS is sitting… no need to get upset. We have to wait for news. Doctor comes out. Mati has passed. MA is shocked… Frida hugs him, AS breathes a big sigh.
At fonda, Gwendy and Carm talk to Lupe to coordinate the menus for the wedding.
MA talks to doctor, does not understand what happened. Doctor is also puzzled, she had a heart attack, and even though she did not have any other signs, she did not respond. So sorry…
MA asks Leo, Frida and AS to be strong. AS will make the arrangements for the service at the cathedral… MA will take care of that. He tells them that Mati asked to be watched at the Fonda. AS protests, but MA says it was her last will and it is not up for discussion. AS says ok but then there is no use our friends to find out about the watch since the would not go. MA says Mati’s true friends will be there.
Rita asks Gwendy if she will get a bachelorette party… Gwendy is confused because Rita asks this when she is Nepo’s ex. Rita says she is indifferent to Nepo now. She is glad that DA would have an ‘ally’.
At A-hole’s… A-hole is anxiously waiting for a call to get news of her passing. MA calls him. A-hole fakes not knowing, asking MA if his call is about the divorce. MA is very sad and says have very bad news, want you to find out from me. Mati has just died. A-hole is shouting a skid about being upset when he is smiling from ear to ear… They hang up .’’how sad… I did it!... I got rid of that mummy!... finally she is in heaven’’
DA tells Nepo he will eat at the Menchacas to talk to Rita a while. Nepo is not quite ok with it… thought DA was going to study at Nuevo Leon… DA says he wants to take the opportunity to go to the United.
At fonda kitchen, Lupe is happy telling Carm that Gwendy is so happy with her wedding. Lupe says she will shower a bit before MA gets there. Carm asks if Tomas will go with them. Lupe says yes, but she can’t wait another day… MA arrives very somber… Lupe can tell something is very wrong. MA tells Lupe and Carm that Mati died. Lupe is teary eyed, hugs him hard.
Nepo asks DA.. tell me the truth..the real truth… are you happy?... not that much. Nepo still is reluctant to talk about ‘that’. DA says ‘that’ has a name. Nepo says ‘that which you are… is something I still can’t understand that well… please understand me… I was educated another way… very macho…’ DA says I know… Nepo says ‘put yourself in my shoes (the only ones that matter to you, jerk!)… when one finds out that your child is … like that… well….. I love you my son… I love you very much’.
MA tells Carm and Lupe that he was with her in her last few minutes… and he can tell she went at peace. Chuy and Perla are very upset. Carm too… the mother, mother in law, grandma and friend we all dream of having. Lupe does not know how to tell Emi. MA says it won’t be easy but sometimes children know more than we do about these things… Lupe goes upstairs. Emi can tell she is crying… Lupe tells Emi that ‘your grandma got ill… she had something in her heart… and she won’t be with us anymore… she died, mijo’… Emi gets upset quick. Lupe says all we can do is remember all the nice moments we lived together, about everything she taught us when she was here… and to pray for her.’ Emi is ok with it.
The watch is on. The place is full, all men are in black suits, they are praying the rosary led by Carmelita.
There is a huge portrait of Mati on one wall… there is not a dry eye in the whole place. Chuy talks about the deep pain in his heart. La Donita left us. His wrestling friend tries to cheer him up a bit. Chuy says she was just enjoying time with us, she was laughing… The son of perro A is also there to comfort him. Chuy says Mati left the papers of the house with him. Now he can breathe easy that no one will get them out of there. He will always thank Mati for not leaving them alone. AS is protesting that they are watching her at the ‘colonia’… AS is nagging about the ‘customs’ of the salt cross and onion they put under the coffin… Even Leo says those customs don’t offend anyone… AS keeps nagging. MA leaves her, he’s had enough.
DA comes and Leo hugs him. A-hole makes his appearance. ‘my grandma Mati… granny… why did you leave us, granny?... you were always my model… you left me all alone in this world… why, God??... why granny?... My God! Why did you not take me instead of her?? She deserved to live more!! She did not deserve it!!’ Emi approaches him and A-hole continues the skid ‘she left us, my son, she left us for good’
Nepo arrives to the wake… Trofeo behind him… Nepo remembers when he helped Mike to pay for Mati’s tests… he never thought she was so ill… and she was so pretty, truly… he has brought some booze to help deal with the sorrow… he rants at Trofeo to not take it all… Gwendy comes to them… Nepo does not know it is her… Gwendy tells Nepo ‘we have to love and pamper each other all the time, we never know when it will be too late…’
A-hole keeps feeding crap in Emi’s brain… tells Emi that last time Mati talked to him at the office, she was no longer mad at him. A-hole says he wants them to be a family and live together. Lupe joins them, she is not happy that Emi is alone with A-hole. (too late, Lupe…damage done already)
Trofeo offers AS some of his cup… She is not happy about it until she tastes the ‘coffee’ then her eyes pop out…
Mini and Isela at their house… they can’t believe Mati is being watched at the Fonda. At least after this, A-hole can fulfill the clause from the grandpa. Isela says she has lots of money now, besides, she has another ace card under her sleeve. Mini asks her to spill the beans, Isela won’t.
Leo tells DA that just when grandma and him were getting close and he had discovered that she was very understanding and knew him more than he thought, she is gone … DA tells Leo that Rita is inviting him to go with her to the Uniteds.
A-hole keeps his skid with Lupe… losing Mati is like losing his mom all over again. Now more than ever he wants Emi to go live with him. Frida comes to them… Lupe sends Emi with Frida. Lupe rants at A-hole not to keep looking for her… A-hole starts making smart remarks about her being prettier… no divorce… He warns her that if she keeps pushing for divorce, he will have Emi tell a judge who he wants to live with… Besides, A-hole can sue her for abandoning the home… He basically warns her that she has no choice but to come live with him at his house. When he can fulfill the clause, he will give her the divorce.
Previews: A-hole thinks the ‘clause’ is in his hands… but surprise, surprise!! The notary tells him that Mati left a statement that the ‘marriage’ he had with Lupe was forced, so it is not valid for fulfilling the clause. (YOU GO MATI!!!! ‘otra vez fria, hah, A-hole??’)
I will try to edit this tomorrow… but it was not as bad as I thought … it was nice for her to go at peace even though we know in reality A-hole did kill her…)
Mati and AS have a bit of emotional convo. Roberto was a gentleman… but a mother knows what she has and her son was useless and never valued what he had. AS admits he had it all… Mati admits that was their mistake, to give them everything without asking anything in return. Mati recognizes Rob was not faithful either.

AS protests, but MA says it was her last will and it is not up for discussion. AS says ok but then there is no use our friends to find out about the watch since the would not go. MA says Mati’s true friends will be there.
Rita asks Gwendy if she will get a bachelorette party… Gwendy is confused because Rita asks this when she is Nepo’s ex. Rita says she is indifferent to Nepo now. She is glad that DA would have an ‘ally’.
At A-hole’s… A-hole is anxiously waiting for a call to get news of her passing. MA calls him. A-hole fakes not knowing, asking MA if his call is about the divorce. MA is very sad and says have very bad news, want you to find out from me. Mati has just died. A-hole is shouting a skid about being upset when he is smiling from ear to ear… They hang up .’’how sad… I did it!... I got rid of that mummy!... finally she is in heaven’’
DA tells Nepo he will eat at the Menchacas to talk to Rita a while. Nepo is not quite ok with it… thought DA was going to study at Nuevo Leon… DA says he wants to take the opportunity to go to the United.
At fonda kitchen, Lupe is happy telling Carm that Gwendy is so happy with her wedding. Lupe says she will shower a bit before MA gets there. Carm asks if Tomas will go with them. Lupe says yes, but she can’t wait another day… MA arrives very somber… Lupe can tell something is very wrong. MA tells Lupe and Carm that Mati died. Lupe is teary eyed, hugs him hard.
Nepo asks DA.. tell me the truth..the real truth… are you happy?... not that much. Nepo still is reluctant to talk about ‘that’. DA says ‘that’ has a name. Nepo says ‘that which you are… is something I still can’t understand that well… please understand me… I was educated another way… very macho…’ DA says I know… Nepo says ‘put yourself in my shoes (the only ones that matter to you, jerk!)… when one finds out that your child is … like that… well….. I love you my son… I love you very much’.
MA tells Carm and Lupe that he was with her in her last few minutes… and he can tell she went at peace. Chuy and Perla are very upset. Carm too… the mother, mother in law, grandma and friend we all dream of having. Lupe does not know how to tell Emi. MA says it won’t be easy but sometimes children know more than we do about these things… Lupe goes upstairs. Emi can tell she is crying… Lupe tells Emi that ‘your grandma got ill… she had something in her heart… and she won’t be with us anymore… she died, mijo’… Emi gets upset quick. Lupe says all we can do is remember all the nice moments we lived together, about everything she taught us when she was here… and to pray for her.’ Emi is ok with it.
The watch is on. The place is full, all men are in black suits, they are praying the rosary led by Carmelita.
There is a huge portrait of Mati on one wall… there is not a dry eye in the whole place. Chuy talks about the deep pain in his heart. La Donita left us. His wrestling friend tries to cheer him up a bit. Chuy says she was just enjoying time with us, she was laughing… The son of perro A is also there to comfort him. Chuy says Mati left the papers of the house with him. Now he can breathe easy that no one will get them out of there. He will always thank Mati for not leaving them alone. AS is protesting that they are watching her at the ‘colonia’… AS is nagging about the ‘customs’ of the salt cross and onion they put under the coffin… Even Leo says those customs don’t offend anyone… AS keeps nagging. MA leaves her, he’s had enough.
DA comes and Leo hugs him. A-hole makes his appearance. ‘my grandma Mati… granny… why did you leave us, granny?... you were always my model… you left me all alone in this world… why, God??... why granny?... My God! Why did you not take me instead of her?? She deserved to live more!! She did not deserve it!!’ Emi approaches him and A-hole continues the skid ‘she left us, my son, she left us for good’
Nepo arrives to the wake… Trofeo behind him… Nepo remembers when he helped Mike to pay for Mati’s tests… he never thought she was so ill… and she was so pretty, truly… he has brought some booze to help deal with the sorrow… he rants at Trofeo to not take it all… Gwendy comes to them… Nepo does not know it is her… Gwendy tells Nepo ‘we have to love and pamper each other all the time, we never know when it will be too late…’
A-hole keeps feeding crap in Emi’s brain… tells Emi that last time Mati talked to him at the office, she was no longer mad at him. A-hole says he wants them to be a family and live together. Lupe joins them, she is not happy that Emi is alone with A-hole. (too late, Lupe…damage done already)
Trofeo offers AS some of his cup… She is not happy about it until she tastes the ‘coffee’ then her eyes pop out…
Mini and Isela at their house… they can’t believe Mati is being watched at the Fonda. At least after this, A-hole can fulfill the clause from the grandpa. Isela says she has lots of money now, besides, she has another ace card under her sleeve. Mini asks her to spill the beans, Isela won’t.
Leo tells DA that just when grandma and him were getting close and he had discovered that she was very understanding and knew him more than he thought, she is gone … DA tells Leo that Rita is inviting him to go with her to the Uniteds.
A-hole keeps his skid with Lupe… losing Mati is like losing his mom all over again. Now more than ever he wants Emi to go live with him. Frida comes to them… Lupe sends Emi with Frida. Lupe rants at A-hole not to keep looking for her… A-hole starts making smart remarks about her being prettier… no divorce… He warns her that if she keeps pushing for divorce, he will have Emi tell a judge who he wants to live with… Besides, A-hole can sue her for abandoning the home… He basically warns her that she has no choice but to come live with him at his house. When he can fulfill the clause, he will give her the divorce.
Previews: A-hole thinks the ‘clause’ is in his hands… but surprise, surprise!! The notary tells him that Mati left a statement that the ‘marriage’ he had with Lupe was forced, so it is not valid for fulfilling the clause. (YOU GO MATI!!!! ‘otra vez fria, hah, A-hole??’)
I will try to edit this tomorrow… but it was not as bad as I thought … it was nice for her to go at peace even though we know in reality A-hole did kill her…)

De Que Te Quiero, Te Quiero #157, 8/15/14
De que por poco me dormí, me dormí
Can anyone recap for me Tuesday (August 19th)? It's Open House and I won't be home til late.
The beginning bits may be a little out of order.
Alonso's secretary is a dirty, rotten spy. What does Al care if Karina as an admirer? The sneaky broad managed to get Oscar's name and to pass it on to Al. Al calls the hospital, but Oscar the camillero (hospital porter/stretcher-bearer) is on his break.
Mali mentions that Brigitte is starting to show. She gets a tongue lashing from Brat. Carmen reminds Brat a child is a gift. Mali feels bad for setting off Brat. Poor Mali.
Simona is good at business. Even Vicente likes her. Nat pouts. Somebody said conejillo de Indias (guinea pig) at the meeting, but I didn't catch the context. I think Irene was concerned about Telerman not having a lot of experience with fashion textiles and using Eskenda as the guinea pig to expand their business (I completely made that up, but it sounded good didn't it?)
Rod goes to the airport. He is cleverly disguised in a white cap and shades. Reina fans know that only BLACK caps fully disguise the wearer.

VIERNES PARTE 1
Reina wants to start a new life. Esmeeth will get everything ready for her. Navier interrupts the conversation, but Reina just says she's thanking Esmeeth. Navier notes with irony that Esmeeth is always there at the right moment and her boss must be very proud. He and Reina leave and Rocky comes in. He asks if she's going to say anything to Bolivar. She tells him no and that if he does it will cost him his job.
Laz arrives home. Miriam in the shower. A text from Putz arrives. Laz's cerebral hamsters begin treadmilling.
Estefy admits to being the one that hired the thugs to beat up Putz. No one is going to hurt Greata! Victor overhears and Estefy tells him that Putz was blackmailing Susana and threatening to tell Greata about her real mom. Estefy wanted Putz to understand that you don't mess with her. Victor approves and says he would have done the same...well, he would have done something a little different. He is unable to elaborate since his phone rings and interrupts. It’s Bolivar. We don’t know what he said, but Vic looks serious.
Miriam is out of the shower and she’s not happy with nosy Laz. She tells him Damian is a friend from rehb. Laz is no dummy. He begs her not to get involved with Putzy Trash like the Putz. Miriam concludes that Laz wants to leave her and go off with rich Greata. He can get rich and she can’t. Greata can’t even make love to him! Why Greata and not Miriam? For LOVE, Laz responds.
Izzy at the bridal shop. Connie tells him she’s a modern woman and willing to have a “free” relation with him. He agrees and asks her not to tell anyone about their “free” relationship.
Navier takes Reina to his apartment. Reina asks why they are there. He explains that he called Vic and told him they were giving their statements to Esmeeth. Reina doesn’t like when Navier reports things to Vic as if he were his trusted man. Navier clarifies that he is REINA’s hombre and she is his woman. Doesn’t she think they deserve to be away from all the crazy for just a moment. He’s not afraid of bullets. He’s only afraid of not being able to make love to her forever. Love on a short sofa. Shirtles Navier (drink.)
Laz looks for work. Miriam thinks Laz said he loved Greata just to annoy her. Laz is actually surprised by his feelings, too. Miriam makes the lame “she can’t make love to you” argument. Laz says a woman is more than just a body to him and Miriam doesn’t believe him. She knows he’s an ardent (fogoso) and passionate man. He pushes her away and tells her that thanks to her and the Putz’s shenanigans, he and Greata are kaput.
Greata cries alone. Susana comes in and asks what’s wrong. Greata says she can’t even dry her own tears. Susana asks if she’s crying for Laz. Susana explains that Laz had nothing to do with the beating of the Putz and that Laz is a good guy. Greata doesn’t believe it. No one who gets involved with her has honorable intentions. Who is going to love a paraplegic like her? Susana says everyone deserves a “gran amor”, even Greata.
