While the episode was angst as hell I notice a few things people didn’t praise on here and is that with all that shit going on Val didn’t drink. Also, she never stood to Lucho until he mention Juliana. She usually let him do things and I think both of this things are amazing as her character.

You’re right, anon. That was pretty tough as far as days go but she stuck it out and was even able to argue back against Eva’s literal conversion therapy idiocy. Usually in plots like this the characters are left with some doubt but she absolutely turned it around on Eva and stood her ground. She showed a lot of strength today, honestly, there’s some steel behind all that fluff. AND she did stand up to Lucho for Juls. A lot of standing up for Val yesterday. 🙂

I didn’t really mind the missed call so much, in the context of the ep. If she had answered she would have sounded so upset, she would only have upset Juls further. Though she does need to call her back, girl is justifiably worried.

Also about the phone call… people are going on about the name change but idk if that was an actual creative choice lol they changed the whole incoming call layout thing and telenovelas are not super accurate when it comes to that kind of stuff… (i might be wrong tho and it could actually be to reflect the moment they are going through, who knows lol)

Oh, I’d definitely say it was a change during a phone switch from the props people. Corrie had a bunch of different phones the girls used, for example, and it didn’t really seem to mean anything what user pic it was or what name was used. Literally what meaning would even be ascribed to that change? There’s no point in hiding what Juls is to her anymore. She uses Juliana when she’s worried about her all the time. If anything, it’s prettier and more meaningful. 😛

Lol here I am passing the time waiting for the new juliantina episode videos to be posted and I happen to walk past my mom’s room and she’s watching amar a muerte too. I got super giddy. I really wish I could talk to her about it but she’s very close-minded. I really wonder how juliantina is affecting her though. Sorry just wanted to share it with someone!

Aww! That must have needed a double take. 

I’d say that you could join her anyway and discuss the rest of the show, but I wouldn’t want you to have to put up with anything homophobic she might say. Very neat, though. If we ever get frustrated at how it’s going (which, at the moment we very much are not), we have to remember who the show’s actual audience is.

I like how Eva’s husband brought up the fact that she was perfectly fine having a f/f relationship or dalliance in her youth. But when it comes to her sister wanting a full on relationship with juliana she gets all concerned about how people will perceive it and the reputation it brings on Valentina and the family as a whole. Which I get to an extent being where they are however it is presumably 2018/19. Also Zeroty is slowly uploading their clips from yt to vimeo. vimeo.c0m/zeroty

But I think she’s actually not fine with that in her past, she probably regrets it and looks down on that of her past. The bigger thing is the affair she’s having with a cartel head. That seeeems like it might bring a bit more scandal. 

Also, cool, thanks for the heads up, I’ll add that as a note.
