You think so? It doesn’t make sense to me that there’d be a time jump in the middle of all this. All the stories are going so strong, how could they just pause like that? They’re only picking up speed. Unless…I guess…Lupe and Juls leave, Beltran settles down into his normal life, Jacobo…yeah, I dunno about that. I can’t imagine him doing anything that would just be background time skip level stuff, even if he’s on the run or in jail or something.
Did jacobo got caught by the police? I can’t wait until juls and val found out he’s their dad lmao
No, at least not right now, he’s being treated as the savior of the situation.
Yeah, that’s gonna be one heckova reveal.
And another anon:
as long as our girls didnt get hurt i can laugh about this. val really answered a video call in the middle of a hostage situation and juls really ran her ass across a shootout in a noticeable red shirt and no vest on lmaoooo why are they like this?
They’re such besotted fools. 
Lol, yeah, we headed into these last few days fearing all kinds of things and in the end they didn’t see each other and that was the biggest drama.
And another anon:
After this episode, I’m fairly sure Juliana and Valentina won’t see each other for a bit. I think now more than ever Juliana’s going to want to leave because she won’t want to cause Valentina more trouble through her association with Jacobo. And now she doesn’t even have a way to get in touch with Valentina, so I think she’ll just leave and probably tell Sergio. But I also think it’ll make their reunion so much sweeter!
Unfortunately, that sounds too likely. It looks like the Chino = Jacobo revelations are going to out and mess things up even more than they already out.
Did Juls find out Val is okay??
Yes, apparently through the policemen talking about it, but she didn’t see her. :/ And Val didn’t see her.
what happened?? dont leave us hanging! also how do you know what happens in the show before the scenes are uploaded to youtube?
If you use a VPN, you can watch live as it airs on https://www.lasestrellas.tv/telenovelas/amar-a-muerte
The police arrived, a shootout starts, Mateo arrives and has to hide behind a car as bullets are flying, then out of nowhere, Juls on her heels rocks up and she and Mateo hide together from the bullets.
Jacobo gets in to the house and saves Val in the nick of time but gets shot (through the shoulder, so nothing too bad).
BUT THEN THE COPS DON’T LET JULS IN. She’s just left waiting for news outside. Then she sees Jacobo/El Chino.
I know there’s a lot going on right now, but I’m stuck on the hospital scene, when Juliana tells Val “me encantas” (i’m crazy about you/i like you) and Val just lets out a giggle because she’s such a gay mess. Ugh, I love her so much.
That’s the thing about this ship, there are so many previous moments you can go back to that still mean so much! Let yourself be loved being a super favorite of mine to this day. And lol, yeah, she did say she always laughs at awkward times. ^_^
I actually talked about me encantas to a few people and I know I translated it as “I really like you”, and there are other much stronger translations which we eschewed to match context and character, but something somebody pointed out to me really stuck with me.
According to @pizzakissingpizza: The phrase Juliana used was “me encantas” and it’s like a step further than just “I like you” because it implies that the other person is the one causing that effect, whereas in “me gustas” which is literally “I like you” the person saying it is the one taking the step. So it’s just really silly and I don’t know if I explained myself (probably not lol) but the bottom line is “me encantas” is way cuter, so we all died when she said it
I love learning things like that.
Juliana is alone. But Valentina is alone too. Valentina is alone in the middle of all this people. Sergio left, Mateo support her but she doesn’t know it. I wonder why with all the staff she has lucho always enter and get her. And worst, the ones she thought were friends did that thing on social media. My babies are alone and they didn’t felt alone when they where together.
I know this was sent some days back but it’s even truer now! You’re so right, anon.
Val could tell Guille because she guessed he’d react well (they’d already had the convo about how it’d be okay if either was gay, clever Val floating that idea early on) but also because his rejection wouldn’t crush her, not the way Lupe’s would for Juls. Val doesn’t have anyone like that anymore, he just died and honestly, even when he was alive, he wasn’t there for her. Jacobo’s support is minuscule, it’s nice but she doesn’t know it’s her father offering tentative approval.
All her family members see her suffering but think her grief is like their own, something they’ve already handled, everyone’s too focused on their own things to make the effort to reach out. Say what you will about Lupe, at least she keeps on making an effort to reach out to Juls (though occasionally making things worse with her mindset).
And god, “with friends like these…” could not be more appropriate. I hope the breakup’s over soon, they need to be back with each other.
1/2 when i came out to my single brazilian chatolic mother, she was fine with it. she was okay with me being myself and being happy, even with the religious background. i was about to move to europe at the time, and when i asked her if she would come visit me, and be okay to meet any potential girlfriends there, she said yes. she seemed very happy with me leaving though, which made me sad. i was thinking maybe it was because she wanted to get rid of me, but couldnt kick me out
2/2 one day, i found her crying in the living room. i asked why, and she said a friend had told her about this guy who got beaten up for being gay. and then she said, this is why she was happy i was leaving soon. she was ok with me being gay, just not in our small city, because she feared for me. like any mother she just wanted me safe and healthy. i think i see a lot of my mom in lupe, i’d be in character with them being in the run, not wanting even more reasons for juliana to be targeted
Ah, that’s heavy, anon. Sorry you two had to go through that and thanks for sharing a personal story.
I think you could be right. Lupe’s been shown to be so loving and they really are having a tough time, that might be her approach to it.
The interesting thing about this show approaching this from such a fresh and thorough perspective is that they’re showing a lot of things UK/US media doesn’t much include anymore. Outright disgust, “I’m fine with it as long as it’s not my family”, “she’s had boyfriends, she can’t be gay”, “you’re confused, it’s a phase”, and now like you said, possibly “I’m not homophobic, I’m worried for you”, which is of course still not something wants to hear when in that vulnerable place, as if we ourselves aren’t aware it’s dangerous.
I truly think Luna didn’t do it but I think proving her innocence is gonna be one of the main plots from this season. I only hope Joanna believes her and Molly is there for her…poor Luna she deserves the world and Molly too, they have suffered too much btw is Molluna their ship name? I thought they didn’t have one.
Ah, sorry for getting to this so late. Oh, I didn’t know if Molluna was their name, but the other anons used it, so, I guess so.
The good thing about answering this so late is that I was able to get to the next episode. I believe her! She didn’t do it. This was one of our theories, right, that she’d left and then somebody else came in. It’d have to be that, once we saw it wasn’t self-defense.
Man, there was this one moment when Joanna thought Gerrilyn had done it and forced her way in to see and my hackles went up, she’s really going to break the law to go confront her dad’s victim? But yeah, phew, she settled down and I think…well, at first blush, she immediately went into protective sister/lawyer mode, but I think she’ll have doubts. She and Molly (who immediately threw a bag together to go to her girl ^_^) will probably waver through the season. Gerrilyn either never will or will be like, whatever, he deserved it, get my daughter out!
What is Juliana doing in the promo that has everyone saying shes going to the house? I havent seen her in any of the advances
It’s actually Lupe on the phone saying, and I’m paraphrasing someone’s summary to me, so I might be getting the words wrong, but the gist of it was that she was afraid Juls was in danger?
VAL u GAY DISASTER u r seriously picking up the phone IN THE MIDDLE OF A HOSTAGE SITUATION lmao what is wrong w u ??? those men have a GUN it’s a VIDEO CALL there’s no way to hide it ????. I can’t w her. But on the other hand, if she thinks she’s about to die the last thing she wants to see is Juls’ face so like honestly??? I get it.
You know what, when you put it like that? Same.
I genuinely CANNOT understand WHAT was going through her mind. Uh-oh, last time I didn’t pick up, she broke up with me, I gotta take this no matter what. Was she still mildly drunk and just…forgot about the MEN. WITH. GUNS?
I really want to know what Lucia’s reaction was to it all. The facepalm to end all facepalms, I’m sure.
