Trying to Translate
I'm trying to learn Spanish by watching telenovelas. Please share your comments about the shows, too. I know I'm not the only English-speaking person who's hooked on telenovelas!

Duelo de Pasiones shooting spree (updated in July)
Let's see, how many shootings have there been now on "Duelo de Pasiones"?
ALFONSINA - shot by Alvaro (and died)
ALINA - shot by Sergio
ALVARO'S TATTOOED JAIL FRIEND -- shot while trying to escape (and died)
CASTULO - shot by Braulio (and died)
ELIAS - shot by Sergio
EMILIO - shot twice by Alvaro
FELICIA - shot by authorities (and died)
GASPAR - shot three times, once by Sergio, once by Orlando, and once by Emilio (although Emilio's shot only tranquilized him, should that count?)
HOTEL CLERK - shot by Alfonsina (and probably died)
HUGO - shot by Alfonsina (and died)
JACINTO - shot by authorities (and died)
JOSE - shot by Orlando (and died)
MAXIMO - shot by Castulo
ROSITA'S UNFORTUNATE DRIVER (I don't recall his name) - shot by Castulo (and died)
SERGIO - shot by Emilio with his trusty tranquilizer gun (thank you to Sylvia for telling me about this one)
SOLEDAD - shot by Alvaro
WOULD-BE ASSASSIN HIRED BY HUGO (again, I forget his name) - shot by Alvaro (and died)
DR. Z - shot by Castulo (and died)
So by my count, Alvaro is most bloodthirsty, having five shootings to his credit. Emilio and Gaspar are the most bulletproof, having survived two wounds apiece. Gaspar wins if we count the time Emilio shot him with a tranquilizer gun.
Hmm. I've listed ONLY 21 shootings. It seems as if there have been 21,000 on this show. Who am I forgetting?
(Note: I missed about eight episodes because I was on vacation, but Sylvia kindly let me know about the shootings I missed. Thank you!)
