“Don Armando tendrá que soportarme, y yo tendré que soportarlo a él.”

Una de las facetas que más amo de Beatriz es cuando está en su plan de venganza.

@supercool-here

there's other examples of his own misogyny when it comes to how he treats his affairs with women but the most interesting one is how he treats betty when the panama fabric deal discussion happens.

it's very much a precursor to the plan. armando is frantic for materials and mario's solution is a seller in panama but betty is warning armando every step of the way and he chooses not to listen to her. every single time she's tries to explain the danger or offer alternatives, mario interrupts them and armando doesn't let her finish. when she insists that at the very least the materials need to be nationalized, he later says 'betty they're gonna get nationalized just like you wanted'---as a weak attempt to say 'look, i listened to one thing now stop whining'. And then later, when he and mario are alone, mario's like 'betty's not on board' and armando says 'well it's not her problem'.

the woman he's depended on for everything up until that moment and its at the most crucial moment that he pushes her out in favor of mario. just like he chooses to believe mario that betty will betray him even tho betty has shown her loyalty time and time again.

Armando was delusionally positive in a lot of his decisions. He had blind and egotistical faith in his own power of decision. Anyone who dared to suggest that his decisions are actually counter productive was immediately shut down.

Betty was Armando's biggest ally, immediately followed by Calderón. Yet, Armando straight up ignores and condemns Mario when he suggested not to alter the collection's quality. He begs for at the very least keep the buttons good. Th buttons. Just that. And Armando fully refuses it. He denies it to Mario, his best friend, vixe president, and ally in his schemes.

País: Alemania

Nombre: "Verliebt en Berlín" (Enamorada en Berlín)

Año de transmisión: Se emitieron dos temporadas entre 2005-2007

Fue la primera adaptación europea.

La transferencia cultural de un guión original a otro contexto cultural se refleja en el nombre elegido para la protagonista Lisa Plenske.

Ambientada en el negocio de la moda, muchas veces frío y superficial. Esta joven honesta y educada, que vive en un suburbio rural de Berlín, intenta conseguir un trabajo en la gran ciudad y, sorprendentemente, se convierte en la asistente personal de David Seidel, director general de la empresa de moda "Kerima".

Como Lisa no parece una supermodelo, al principio tiene que soportar los prejuicios y los comentarios desagradables de sus colegas y, innecesariamente, se enamora del prometido David.

Just look at this beauty! I am so excited and happy to see so many familiar faces that I HAD to sahre!

What do y'all think? I'm thrilled to see so much of the original cast back! But I also feel a little sad to see so many absent. It feels so nostalgic, even though I literally only started watching this novela around 3 years ago. Feels like when you go to a highschool reunion and get to catch up with all those people who until now were only a memory.

Armando and Camila are close but Betty looks like she’s on the sidelines ☹️

During the attempted sabotage of Betty's computer, he explicitly says he gives his word to Olarte about giving him a better position if he doesn't mention him or Patricia to Armando once Armando finds out about th sabotage. Immediately after, when Armando tells to the whole board what happened, he says that he fired Olarte, and Daniel says "that's good, but there's still a chance for suing him."

Not only that, but this man saved Patricia's ass from being also fired exactly to use this later on himself to manipulate and coerce her into sex...

I've noticed how often Armando and Betty use the word "pedazos" as a reference to their metaphorical deaths.

Betty writes in her diary "la que escribé este diario hoy es un comprendio de varios pedazos de lo que fue una mujer", when Armando killed her.

Armando begs Betty to do the balance with such words "usted me quiere ver destrozado, me quiere ver vuelto pedazos?". And yes, she wanted to kill him in her illusions.

After the junta meeting Armando says "apenas estoy recogiendo mis pedazos", he is dead metaphorically.
