ACAPULCO CUERPO y ALMA snippet 7



On getting home with Aurelio, David and Lorena walk in on a party going on; a celebratory party for Aide on her upcoming wedding. She is very shocked to see Lorena on David's arm and naturally demanded an explanation; Elena, Cinthia and Sophie, and Aide's mother included. David calmly told them that Lorena was his wife again. Aide flew at Lorena in great fury, but David pushed her away from his wife, sternly telling her to behave herself. Elena called him aside, telling him he did wrong, hurting Aide and refused to believe what he told her about Marcelo. Aide poured insults on David and Lorena before leaving the house with her mother and sister in tears. David consoled an unhappy Lorena, cuddling her close in their bed as they went to sleep; her diamond wedding ring flashing on her finger.
Cinthia and Aide later warned Lorena that they were going to make life very unpleasant for her. Lorena coldly tells them she wasn't scared of them- Cinthia is furious when Lorena throws her own marital problems in her face. Elena is cold towards Lorena as well, to her distress. David assured Lorena that Julia was welcome back to their house; however, they both agreed not to let Julia live off them. She was going to be given a job instead. Lorena is not at all pleased to see Marcelo, who still feeds his mother with lies and dares to extend the hand of friendship to Lorena. According to him, he wanted nothing but peace between them(Yeah, right)
Lorena finds Julia at German's. Julia is stunned that Lorena is ready to forgive her, but is furious at David and Lorena's decision- she was to work with Power Girl selling condos at David's hotel.
Marcelo cornered Lorena on getting home; Lorena is hostile towards him, demanding that he tell his mother the truth about what he tried to do to David and how he almost raped her. He insisted that he did, but Elena didn't believe him. Alas, Elena was by the door and heard the whole conversation! Marcelo stared at her in horror and started choking like a caught fish...

Peter's last days in DAYS

Yes, it's officially confirmed, according to Kelly Moneymaker's tweet, her husband Peter Reckell (Bo) is leaving Days of Our Lives for the third time and apparently for good this time around. Since his co-star's Crystal Chappell departure( correction, firing) I stopped watching DAYS; I was simply too disappointed and furious at the abrupt end of Bo and Carly's love story and the fact KC refused to embrace a whole new chapter.
Now Peter, who's been in DAYS for over 20 years is leaving too. I don't have the honor of  knowing  him personally albeit a few tweets with him at Twitter and, like I said before stopped watching DAYS last February so I only hear a few bits and pieces about his storyline after Carly(CC) left, so I won't state the reasons why he's leaving since I don't know exactly. BUT I will say this; I am NOT surprised, DAYS is simply not the DAYS of the glory days; romance, pure angst, romance, romance and MORE romance! And there was pure romance when Bo and Carly were still in DAYS; it is, I repeat once more A RUIN. Peter is too good of an actor to be in a soap opera like that, hence the need to explore new ventures. We've been seeing him in CC's web-series "Venice" (his lovely and talented wife does the music for it)  and from what I heard, we will see him in CC's other web-series "The Groove".

Well, Days won't be the same without Bo, his character as well as CC's(though Carly was in DAYS for just 5 years) are very much memorable; the ruggedly handsome detective and the beautiful aristocratic doctor; they never failed to make their fans smile; even when they argued! And those lovely Carbo moments; their first kiss, the long awaited declaration of their love, the dance on the roof, the Mayan wedding... all so wonderful and hard to forget!




True, from 1992-1995 we viewers had his Bo recast Robert Kelker-Kelly; but I can't exactly say his portrayal of Bo Brady was the same  as Peter's despite his own brand of handsomeness and eh... abs ( hee, hee) and he and CC, though they had their moments didn't have the chemistry as with her and Peter.









And Peter and CC definitely had it which made the  end of Bo and Carly's story so sad and unbearable to the fans. But then again, Peter is a brilliant, BRILLIANT actor and I've always admired him for that, not just because of  who he was paired with- even though I am admittedly a Carbo fan. I like him as Richard in Venice mostly because I believe I'm seeing Peter as Peter, i.e how he is off screen and he's so kind, friendly and gracious to both the Carbos and the Bopes.









But life has to go on yet  with both CC and Peter's departure; I honestly can't imagine how DAYS will be like and I don't even care. But, like I told Peter on Twitter...












DAYS without Peter; CLOUDY Days ahead indeed...
