The Ice Princess isn't buying Gisel's making nice nice and, while I don't like Roseny, I have to admit I have a few issues with Gisel's about face as well. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that she snuck out of the house and made a few phone calls arranging for Silvia's house to be burned to the ground, or some such thing, to cause Silvia's personal emergency. But, low level psychosis aside, the person that really loses his grip and seriously cracks up is Geovannie and we're talking some serious mental instability here. I mean he's known Silvia for two weeks and, if she's not hiding from him, he will be able to contact her again in another two weeks. Geovannie sinks to the ground completely bypassing the chair and curls up into a crying little ball. The other chicos look down from their chairs and kind of shrug. It takes a lot to make a dent in this group. Then, struggling to his feet, Geovannie wanders a few feet away from the table before sinking down again and pulling his shirt over his head sort of like a turtle. Wow, this guy has some serious separation anxiety issues. Definitely the sort to lock his teenage bride in the basement so he'll always know just where she is.
You've got to wonder, WTF is the camera man doing under the table?
While Geovannie is going mental, Silvia is upstairs packing and Maria Conchita comes in and does the hugging, comfort thing. It really is sweet, kind of like what Tyra might try to do on ANTM, but never quite manages to pull off.
Downstairs, Geovannie has gotten himself together enough to actually sit on a chair and is playing with a butter knife, hitting it against a glass in kind of a vengeful creepy manner. Gisel, possibly recognizing the behavior from her own repertoire of creepy vengeful stalker behaviors, gets a little nervous and yells at him to stop. Geovannie jumps up and yells back and the girls start yelling some more. Finally, Jenn who is by far the loudest of the chicas, drowns the others out as she goes on about how overdramatic Geovannie is and how he just needs to sit down and relax. My blood pressure is going up just listening to her. I think Jenn's talented but holy crap, woman, take it down a notch. I definitely need some more tequila to cope with this stress.
Upstairs in the Zen like epicenter of peace and love, Maria Conchita is still hugging Silvia and gives her a necklace that symbolizes wings and flying. Then, Maria Conchita tells Silvia that if she's a good human and if she believes in herself she'll...pause, small choke...be happy. So, I guess Maria Conchita doesn't see stardom in Silvia's future, just happiness. But, Silvia seems to have missed the awkward pause and is just grateful for Maria Conchita's attention. Sigh. I'm going to miss Silvia.
Later that night, stalker Gisel tells us that part of her was sad to see Silvia go but part of her was happy because she had Berto to herself. She and Berto are dancing in the pool for some reason...Hey, why not? And her voiceover continues, saying Berto and she are very connected. Note to Berto: Honey, maybe you need to tell Silvia that you've only got another three weeks to live. If you're convincing enough, then just maybe you won't wake up to her standing over your bed wielding a knife.

This review cracks me up. Does the "under the table" cameraman get paid extra for having sit under the entire day, or does he just get the "perks"?

I have to disagree, I think Carlos can pull off the fuschia shirt, specially if it's as tight as that one. He is so dreamy! :) Hilarious recap Yenta, loves it!

Hola;
bmcl: I can't help thinking that working a camera on this set must be a totally bizarre experience...Don't mind me I'm just going to squat under your dinner for a few moments...
MichyPR: I wish that Carlos would sing on the show, but maybe the comparison with the actual contestants would be too painful...sigh...
