Pasión y Poder #12, Wednesday, 11-18-2015

Hey folks! Bad news. I did not get the very beginning of the episode. My DVR was set to start 1 minute early, but I guess Uni started the capitulo earlier than that. I will start the recap where my recording started.

Arturo and Augustin are talking at the office about Julia and her marriage. They are under the impression that it is a good marriage. Little do they know all that Julia has suffered.

Clarita is talking with Francisco at their place of work. Through tears she tells him about her friend Maribel who is sick and that she has no cure. He offers his help and gives her a hug. Franco sees this public show of affection and tells them to get back to work. Clarita goes back to work. Franco tells Francisco that even though he is David's friend, his Godfather can still fire him. Francisco tells him yes, like you said only Mr. Gomez Luna can fire me. He gives Franco a stare down that proves he is not afraid of him.

Antes muerta que Lichita #42 Wednesday 11/18/15 "Managing and Selling Images: Layers of the Truth"

Thursday night: Latin Grammies. More Lichita on Friday.

There was some question yesterday as to the meaning of "flor de quilombo" as Valeriana was warning Luciana that she would be creating a "flor de quilombo" if she were to keep going after Alicia. "Flor de quilombo" is Argentine slang (Lunfardo) for a big mess/enormous problem. Great job by the writers trying to include some Argentine vocab with the Argentine characters.

Now on to tonight . . .

Back we go to Alicia being told the way things are by Augusto. She will marry Alex or else she and her whole family will suffer economically. He knows all about them and their precarious financial position. Augusto wants her to act as a "tapadora" "front/cover" for Alex. She can save Alex's career and her own. She asks Augusto what if she does not want to get married? Augusto tells her he does not threaten (is he channeling Catalina Creel from "Cuna de Lobos"?) and gives her ONE day to decide. Does she want to lose it all or gain a lot more? Augusto motions her to leave, closes the door and laughs.

Elsa and Nacho are discussing with the municipal government representatives who have come to shut down their business. Nacho tells them he got all of the permits that were needed so how can they shut them down? Seems that for starters they do not have their "derecho de reventa" "resale right" (resellers license?) That is followed by picayune problems that these representatives have detailed. Elsa is convinced that somebody must have invented these complaints just to drive them out of business. Nacho says they will be going down to the the municipal government office to sort it all out. The government workers have them vacate the premises and have seals to officially close the business.

Yo No Creo en los Hombres #92, Wed 11/18/15: Isela and Ivana Confront Their Abusers, But Find They are Looking in a Warped Mirror

Max solemnly greets Clara and tells her the reason Leo hasn’t been answering her calls is because Alma revealed last night that she has cancer. Not only that, but she also told them that her cancer has advanced and she does not plan on getting treatment. Leo took it badly and slept curled up with Alma. Clara understands how devastated they must all be, says she will call Leo later, and makes a quick exit.

Up north, Doris joins Nana Chelito at the dining table, and scolds Chelito for eating all that delicious looking bread, when diabetes runs in her family. Chelito basically tells her she’s already old, and she didn’t get to enjoy the good things in life when she was young because she was always working—not even going out with male suitors. Doris wonders if that means that Nana has never done the deed. Chelito basically responds that she’s got her own secrets and it’s none of Doris’ business. Doris starts complaining that she’ll be in the same boat with Orlando ‘cause he won’t give up the goodies under wraps in his package. Chelito doesn’t understand young women today. In the old days, women would beat lousy men off with a stick to keep their grubby paws off them. Now, women don’t appreciate a good man who respects them. She asks if Doris doesn’t think she saw what went on (or didn’t) on that couch last night? (That’s right, Doris. You should be blushing.) If she wants someone like Ari, he’s there waiting for her. But don’t waste Orly’s time. Doris points out that these days, sex is no big deal if the two people love each other. Chelito’s advice is to enjoy the courtship, and allow love and respect to grow over time.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #62 Wed 11/18/15 (Mex 90) Here we go again

I almost thought Vitto had overplayed his hand when Fi said it was all too much, between Gianna being sick and her dad having just died and she might actually take of running because she couldn't handle being around any more sickness/death right now, but nooooooooo…she ended up promising never to leave him, as overheard by Diana.  Oh, what's he dying of?  They don't know yet.  They're still running tests.  But he's totes dying.  *roll eyes*  Well, what the hell, it's not like we love Fi for her critical thinking skills.

She called Pedro, in the midst of Vitto's fake "I'm dying" speech and told him NOT to call things off, and then later had a big cry-fest with him in the garden because she can't possibly leave a dying man, blah, blah, blah.

Antes Muerta Que Lichita #41 Tuesday 11/17/15: In which so much stuff happens!

Whew, this was a really busy one, guys!


Luci, initially delighted to catch Lichicienta in the act of cheating on Alex with some gross old married dude, is horrified to see her smooching Beto! She snaps some photos for evidence and then indulges in some angry selfies!
Luci in shock!


She goes to her mom and whines: "Who knows what twisted and perverted tricks that Alicia used to ensnare Beto!?" Her mom points out that as of yesterday she was all aflutter for Alex and mad at Lichita for getting him. Luci explains that yeah, she liked Alex and was done with Beto, but when she saw him kiss Alicia so passionately, the ground shook beneath her. In the most brilliantly sarcastic line of the night, her mom, who's seen this all before, gasps: "another earthquake strikes Mexico!"

Yo No CreoEn Los Hombres #91 Tue 11/17/15: Mother and Son Reunions

 (I’m doing this from memory cuz I’m in a hurry today.  If I got it wrong or left any out, my apologies.)


Daniel, smelling and looking like  sewer rat after slinking off from prison at his release, grabs hold of Maria Delores, pulls Julian out of his wheelchair and into the street, and then threatens  her and throws another guilt trip on her.  He then races off up to Josefa’s apartment, bangsing till she lets him in.  Julian is lying in the street but MD takes the time to help him back into his wheelchair and screams for him or somebody to call the police. 

Daniel finds the cell phone and calls Ursula to tell her to pick him up from there.  He then makes his way to Hosie’s kitchen and holds her off at knifepoint while grabbing food out of the kitchen.  She convinces him—one sewer rat to another-- that they should make a pact  to wreck MD’s and Max’s wedding by blurting out the truth about Claudio and Isela’s affair.  “—That news will stop the wedding for certain!”  He agrees.

Pasión y Poder #11 Martes 11/17/15


Chapter 11: Sex, Lies, and Seduction

Eladio left Monserrat's apartment just missing Erick, who ducked out of sight just time to to avoid being caught. Once Eladio was gone Erick took the long-stemmed roses he had brought and hit the wall twice with them. That was enough to scatter the petals all over the floor. He then rang Monserrat's doorbell and charged in, demanding some answers. She finally told him that Eladio Gómez Luna paid for the apartment.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #61 Tue 11/17/15 (Mex 89) Buncha lying liars

Benito can try to fake it all he wants, but Pedro heard what he heard.

Gael confides in Roxi about Osvaldo's threat.  She knows Osvaldo's capable of some truly assy behavior, but she doesn't think he'd come at Gi after everything Pedro has done.  She even apologizes for exposing them to Eloisa.  She half-jokingly says if he's going to break up with Gi, he'd better not kill her in the process!

Pedro goes to Gianna's room looking for Fi.  She's playing with her balloons, which unfortunately does not include inhaling the helium and inviting Pedro to do the same.  She's looking for Gael, but he won't answer his phone.

Antes muerte que Lichita #40 Monday 11/16/15: Alicia on the rise and Alex's secret uncovered.

Alicia's surprise presentation in kimono is a big hit - she then take off the kimono and underneath is a t-shirt and skirt, she says, and THIS is the heart of the Latina. (?) Anyway, Augusto loves the presentation and so does the client, who says: "This is much more original than the first one you showed me, I'm enchanted, it's good that Alicia and not Luciana is now our creative director." She gets applause.

After they leave (the client saying, "you robbed my heart,") Sandra screams at Alicia about pulling this surprise. Beto deflects the rage saying "I knew about it," which is not true, and Augusto points out that it was all a success so stop beefing. Alone, Elias congratulates Alicia: "you are truly a creative director and remember - it's better to surprise than disappoint."

Magos pathetically continues to more-or-less pole dance all around Luis, purported father of Ximena. He pays little attention. Turns out the blond in the photo on his desk is his girlfriend. [How did he get this job with an office so easily??] Mags is undaunted.

Yo No Creo en los Hombres #90 Lunes 11/16/15



Chapter 90: The Great Escape


Orlando and Doris talked. They needed to dispel all misunderstanding. She apologised for the needy message. He realized that since the change in their relationship he had been very happy. But he said he needed to get away from the nabe and from Isela. He needed a little time. “I wanted to live here in Chelito's town. With you.” That was the best news Doris ever heard. They went inside.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #60 Mon 11/16/15 (Mex 87-88) Los ricos también sufren. . .de la estupidez!

Ciao, Peeps!  Well, here's tonight's action and, in true Patio fashion, y'all should feel free to fill in because there was a lot of business talk tonight and I'm kinda wobbly on that stuff.  Anywho, here goes.  There was some jumping around so I have combined scenes and hope it's coherent.  Freddie hears Fiorella tell Simoneta that while she doesn't want to return to Pedro, because he's engaged, she is not sure she wants to marry Vittorio either.

Julieta tells Sergio she's going to Italy, Rome to be exact, with Santino Orsini.  Sergio is immediately jealous and thinks he should go with her but Julieta nixes the idea.

Freddie reports back to Dante about Fiorella and Gianna moving back into El Rancho.  She directs this little plotting session:  the goal is to keep Pedro away from Aitana AND Fiorella so that he can suffer the way she suffered when her Father died (kinda of an "off" comparison, but this is Freddie), and she wants to make sure Fifi marries Vitto so as to be rid of the opportunistic Italian heffa!  The first step is Dante's telling Eloisa about the hospital room Pedro has set up.  He trots off like a dutiful bull dog.

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres-Cap 89-Fri 11/13/15, Or New Year, Same Old Problems

RECAP BY JDESDENYC!
As usual, scenes combined, not continuous

Honoria Hangs on to Hope

Jenny tells Hon per her doctor boss, they are many techniques, devices and procedures that can help Julian have a child. The important thing is that Julian takes medical tests to find out if he's able to have children since his inability to move his legs doesn't mean he's sterile.

Hon asks Jenny if she would be willing to have children with Julian. Jenny reminds Hon that Julian has completely friendzoned her. He sees her as a sister and any children she has, he'd only be their uncle.

Pasión y Poder #9, November 13: So yeah, I went out with your sister, mi amor.

(some scenes have been combined) 

David and Regina are both "wowed" by the passionate smooch they have shared. She's drunk and admits that she doesn't dislike him like she had made him believe. He thinks she needs to rest and she stumbles into her room and falls onto the bed. He asks if she's alright and helps her get out of her heels. She pulls him onto the bed with her. But he doesn't want a repeat of what happened with Daniela. She doesn't realize that when he said "Daniela" he meant her sister and asks him if he has a girlfriend. He replies that he doesn't and then quickly changes the subject telling her that he'll call room service to bring her some coffee to help cure her drunkenness. As he heads to the phone, she pulls him from the back of his shirt, and almost falls down. He catches her and then helps her get back onto the bed. The two now sit together on the bed, and she tells him that for the first time in her life she's going to do what she wants. She then pulls him on top of her as they both lay down on the bed.

Over with the poor folks .. Maribel tells Doña Gisela and Clara that she'll have to use a part of her and her husband Jacinto's savings to pay for the medical tests that she needs to have done. She mentions how the doctor said that she didn't like what she saw. Doña Gisela thinks it doesn't sound good and urges Maribel to let her husband know what is happening. But Maribel doesn't want to let him know at least not until he returns from his trip. Maribel and Luisita leave. Clara annouces to Doña Gisela that she has things to do but we never find out what those things are or why we should even care.

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #59 Fri 11/13/15 (Mex 85-86) Gianna's Illness provides Fiorella an Escape from Hell Resort AND Free Both from The Dragon's Lair!

Ciao, il mio bella gente!  Andiamo, eh!  Tonight is all about getting Fiorella and Gianna back to El Rancho Angeles, along with a few other developments.  To summarize:

Freddie snoops in Pedro's office, finds documents related to the swindle of Maximo's brother and Freddie's Father, Gabriel Angeles.  She is convinced, therefore, that Pedro is not only fully aware of the swindle, but an accomplice!  Dante vigorously disagrees with her but Freddie is convinced Granny brought him up to speed and now he's covering for her.  Freddie vows that Pedro and any other Angeles involved MUST PAY!

Assvaldo and Sonia meet with Fabio in a restaurant to recruit him to join with them in their "bring down Pedro" scheme.  He doesn't even need to fully hear them out and asks them if the whole thing is a joke or if the conversation is being recorded.  Fabio flatly refuses:  he WILL NOT be involved in sinking Pedro nor allying himself with the likes of them!  Fabio looks like he wants to laugh right in their faces and doesn't look the least bit intimidated when they threaten to tell his wife and send some of the "hundreds" of damning photos of him and Sonia to his wife.  We'll have to find out how this one turned out later!

Antes muerta que Lichita #39 Friday 11/13/15.... Alicia is a hit with the board members.... and makes an impression when she presents her work to the Oki Oki owner... Roberto shows more jealousy, ALex shows more concern



The guy from the board that Alicia just saved from choking says a toast for Alicia … Roberto and Alex take notice… Of course Luciana whines and rants about all the attention Alicia is getting when she got a piece of bread thrown at her chest… Augusto whispers to Alex that this is a significant moment…


Magos and Ximena converse about whether Ximena liked the ‘guero’


Alicia and the board member guy dance… Another board guy comes and wants to dance with Alicia as well. He talks to Alicia about her desire to continue and expand her advertising career… he agrees that the API is very related to that… another board guy comes and wants to dance with her as well. They all have a different subject to do small talk with her… Roberto still taking notice from a few feet away… The guy talks about Alicia’s drive to grow her career… Roberto finally has had enough passive attention and comes and cuts off the other guy to dance with Alicia… he is a bit sarcastic in his comment about all the attention Alicia has got.


Luciana and Chuchette comment on Alicia’s dancing and dressing skills… they say even though she looks fine, she can’t dance or behave elegantly.


Alicia and Roberto still dancing but arguing… basically he is jealous and she is trying to defend herself. He is trying to control his impulse to kiss her… she rants ‘don’t you dare’. She notes to him that he once was behaving totally the opposite with her.


Augusto sits with Bea, they also have noticed Alicia’s attention by all the board members. Augusto gives her a bit of a speech about the ‘image’ they should present to everyone… then they ‘fake’ embracing for everyone and the press flashes all over.


Now it is Luciana dancing with Roberto… of course she likes the attention from the photo flashes… He wants to hear more about Alex’ accident… she won’t say anything beyond what he knows.


Alicia and Alex are dancing too… she is afraid that when the ‘fake engagement’ ends, they will end up labeled as liars…


At the office Braulio and Brisa are talking… she gives him two months worth of rent money. He says he is surprised at her remembering the rent and her accuracy.


Back to the party… The board leader is giving the press a speech. Alex takes center spot and asks Alicia to join him. HE gives a speech about advertising 101… and the challenges facing them…. Suddenly something is going on… everyone is eewwing and awwwwing… Alicia suddenly looks down and gets freaked… Bea brings her a coat to cover up… (?? Not sure, my guess is someone spilled something on her and made her like she had an ‘accident’)


Back to the office… Brisa says that with her rent payment, she has the right to claim half of the space… he feels deceived…

Muchacha Italiana Viene a Casarse #58 Thu 11/12/15 (Mex 84) Parallel lines ... who meet, side by side, by side.*

I've been trapped in a massage cabin at the Suspension of Reality Spa and Resort.  What?  No, don't send help!  Just send room service.

Alas, the massage cabins have neither cable nor Internet, so I do not have a recap prepared for you.

When last I saw sneaky two shoes, she was hopping on the back of an ATV with a mysterious stranger.  As they drove away she called back to me "I don't know if I'll be back in time to recaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...." So we're just going to have to play it by ear.

In the meantime, grab a frozen drink with a little umbrella in it (assuming Benito hasn't drunk them all) and discuss away!
