Thony's Character

I know most find Thony to be an irritating character and believe me when I say I'm one of them, but I do think(or at least hope) that last episode's opening is foreshadowing to her becoming head of the Sin Cara Cartel.

Now I know that makes absolutely no sense given that Thony has not a clue on how to run a cartel, let alone how to be a successful criminal. However, this is a show that had a cardio-thoracic surgeon, who hadn't preformed a single surgery in half a decade, do a pediatric liver transplant on her own. So you know suspend disbelief.

Deadline recently did an article where they spoke on the future of the show. In the article, they mentioned that the show runners pitched some ideas on where to take things without Adan no longer being a part of the show and those ideas were "well received".

I get the feeling those ideas involved a more empowered Thony going forward and with Ramona's health in question I can see the writer's finding a way to place Thony in her position.

*There are some big spoilers under the cut at the veryyyyyyyyyyy end so be mindful* I'll put SPOILERS so you know when to get out!

In a earlier episode this season, Jorge's character did theorize that Thony likes the chaos of crime and that's why she's "there." I'm starting to believe that to be true.

In the beginning, when Hyak, Garrett and Arman were lording over her she did the best she could with the circumstances she was in. Personally, I think that's why Thony's character was more likable in season 1, she wasn't choosing this. However, at the end of season 1 she actively made a decision to stay in America. She wanted to run an illegal clinic at the back of their cleaning shop, all while both she and Luca are undocumented.

Thony not wanting to go back to the Philippines because of Marco made sense, she wouldn't have been able to divorce him given the laws there. To be frank, the show's writing never left me feeling she stayed in America because she was running from Marco, but rather she was running towards Arman. There were no scenes post Marco's death where she toyed with the idea of going back to the Phillippines to resume her career as a high powered surgeon and freely have access to the anti-rejection meds Luca would need for the rest of his life.

I can't remember which episode Arman got out of jail, 2 or 3, but in her first conversation at La Habana she begged arman to ask Bosco to move a couple of boxes through Sin Cara's routes. Thony was now actively choosing to engage in illegal activities even though she could go back to the Philippines where not only she could buy these meds legally, she could go back to work as a surgeon, but most importantly Luca would be much safer and not undocumented.

Thony's circumstances post season 1 are her own fault. I think that's why a lot of watchers are irritated with her character. Watching her judge other people, beg people to help her out of her own mess, shame people for not risking their livelihoods to help her or Luca has grown annoying. Season 2 was the start of that type of character writing, but I do think season 3 has been a bit of an improvement.

I know Fiona going to Russo was stupid, but I can see why she did it. Fiona has lived the entirety of her children's lives in America and no trouble like this has come her way. She kept her head down and focused on providing an education for her children. She wasn't perfect, but she surely didn't get into the crosshairs of criminals along the way lol. I can see why Fiona is on edge. Thony is afterall living under Fiona's roof and driving around in her car. I'm sure they split the bills, but still Fiona and by extension Chris and Jaz will pay the price for Thony's responsibilities. I mean Fiona did get arrested and deported because of the hospital fiasco. A situation that wouldn't have occurred back in the Philippines because the life saving treatment Luca needed was not experimental there. Funny how that works.

Ultimately, my hope is that Thony gets some power in her hands because three seasons of her getting tossed around and blaming other people isn't going to keep the show around. She needs to become more likable. Likable characters aren't synonymous to "decent people", but savvy, humorous, loyal, etc. This recent episode's ending with her and Ramona was a damn good start. I'm just praying that the writer's keep that tone going. I want to see Thony own her situation unapologetically and do what needs to be done. Jorge's line earlier about Thony liking the chaos seems to ne an accurate estimation of her character. Now I need Thony to commit to this life and actively make alliances/choices to protect her family, while she delves deeper into the life.

I know the Russo/Jeremy/FBI bomb is on the table waiting to go off, but I need it to stay ticking until season 4. I'm still praying we get a season 4 and we see Thony switch from working for the Sin Cara Cartel to one of the heads of the snake.

I can see Jorge surviving the season. He was in an instagram video with our little Lucas' last scene at Thony's house.

I'm not sure Ramona makes it out because Kate posted an instagram video while they still filming episode 10. that made it seem like she was now working on a new project. Granted my Spanish is not great, but I could make out her asking for well wishes on her new project.

I unfortunately don't think Nadia makes it out, because the actress posted a farewell insta. Then there was that picture that Elodie posted and then IMMEDIATELY took down. Yikes on bikes!

So my prediction is Jorge and Thony are the ones left standing to run the cartel. I saw Jorge's face on Russo's board, so I think moving forward they'll be doing everything they can to get out from under the FBI's crosshairs.

Maybe Ramona takes the fall to protect Jorge and to make sure Violetta has him. Either way, I just DON'T want Thony behind bars. I'm tiredddddddd of her being metaphorically on her back, always fighting to get up on her feet, I want her to end the season empowered. Last season ended that way, but I think given Adan's health coming into the new season they had to pivot.

Sorry for the LOOONNNNGGGGG post :)

So many things happening in this BTS vid/trailer so I'm gonna make a list: (warning, spoilers ahead)

Well they confirmed that the theme of the season is Thony finding a way to survive after losing all her usual supports

Fi seems to question if fighting to get back to the US is worth it? (they're totally just saying that for drama; she'll be back lol)

My dream of a Thony and Nadia team-up is coming true, thank god. Let's just hope it lasts after they learn of Arman's death...

Thony meets Arman's parents, and I'm going to cry so much

There are so many clips of Thony looking absolutely devastated and distraught, though that's kind of standard for this show lol

Thony cleaning up a crime scene in a warehouse for Jorge feels far too much like a redo of meeting Arman in 1x01 and I hate it

Though it looks like this time she'll literally have to cut up the bodies to dispose of them, and damn that's next level

Ramona shows up at Thony's house; she seems to actually be the one in charge rather than Jorge, who is the younger brother. Which could mean the writers are going to redo the dynamic of Arman and Hayak, where Arman (Jorge) has no choice to put Thony in these tough situations in order to protect her from becoming 'useless' to Hayak (Ramona)? Though Jorge thinks Thony should already have been killed, which is exactly the opposite to how Arman was with her when they met

"Jorge is fascinated by Thony and who knows, it could evolve into something" It it evolves into anything other than her killing him, there's gonna be hell to pay

It looks like Fi's parents house is attacked by men with guns??? And Fi seems to almost be on the run in some shots? What's going on over in The Philippines???

JD is back yay

Russo is also back, and busy raiding La Habana

Thony holds a gun on someone who is kneeling in the desert, and also Chris looks to be out in the desert too??? What is happening

Jorge holds a gun on Nadia while she's standing next to a dead body in a body bag- is it Arman or just someone that they just thought might have been him?

Anyway whoa that was far more info about S3 than I expected to get at this stage, but I'll take it. Let's just hope this season isn't just about being 'intense', but also about grief and family and women supporting each other no matter what...

Throwback: Blondie-Heart Of Glass

Debbie Harry and Chris Stein of Blondie wrote "Heart Of Glass" in 1974 after hearing The Hues Corporation's disco hit "Rock The Boat." They rewrote the song multiple times and the version that landed on their third album, Parallel Lines, took inspiration from Kraftwerk, The Bee Gees, and Giorgio Moroder. Their fanbase accused them of selling out because disco was mainstream and their first two albums had a punk and new wave influence.  The criticism overlooked the band's live covers of Gloria Gaynor's "Honey Bee"  at their shows and a performance of Donna Summer's "I Feel Love" at the Blitz Benefit in 1978. This eclecticism would make itself known again when the band embraced rap music on their recording of "Rapture" and shout-out to Fab Five Freddy in 1980.

"Heart Of Glass" was Blondie's big breakthrough moment and it scored them American pop status and a number-one hit in the UK. They were international stars after the success of Parallel Lines which sold millions of copies. "Heart Of Glass" is one of the UK's biggest-selling singles ever and was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2015. Missy Elliott, Nicki Minaj, and Tricky have sampled "Heart Of Glass." Miley Cyrus and Chet Atkins are two of many artists to cover Blondie's classic single. In 2019,  BLONDIE: VIVIR EN LA HABANA the film about their show in Cuba was released. Chris Stein released his memoir, Under A Rock in June of 2024. Blondie's 2024 tour of the United States and Canada is underway.

Doja Cat Brought a Couture Glove Bag and Tequila Bottle to PFW For her latest Paris Couture Week style gag, Doja Cat kept things relatively simple with her outfit (an all-black cape look) but saved the drama for her accessory: a gloved-shaped purse wrapped around a bottle of tequila.The surreal handbag, which she brought to the Valentino haute couture show, was made from New York jewelry designer CHRISHABANA and comprises of heavily embellished pearls and delicate chainmail.Related | Doja Cat Wears Mustache and Goatee Made From False Eyelashes"I told [Chris Habana] I wanted something that felt like it was off the Paris Runway for couture but I wanted it to have a bit of a surrealist vibe to it," says Brett Alan Nelson, Doja Cat's stylist who accompanies her to the shows. "Together we ended up with this amazing glove bag, which really just hits on top of the head that it’s hard to get your hands on this couture."The bottle she carried was a Patrón El Alto, Patrón's prestige line of aged tequila. The bag also features a ring inspired by the Patrón bee."I always love some sort of organic gag, nothing that feels forced but seamless to who Doja is as a person and as an artist," said Alan Nelson. "My girl loves a tequila cocktail, so taking the idea of this couture level bottle of Patrón El Alto to Paris but making it an accessory that doesn’t leave her side.Chris Habana, the designer of the bag, added:“ Our studio had two main inspirations for the bag: One was from a West African wax print of a hand with long nails spraying a spray can while the other was from artist William Beaupre, who would take busts and embellish them with pearls and jewels creating encrusted android faces ... We also worked with fellow designer Kerin Rose Gold of A-morir to ensure that the pearl encrustation was graphic and clean. The end result is a glove/bag that can either be slung over the wearer’s or fitted on the hand.”Photography: Jacob Wester https://www.papermag.com/doja-cat-chris-habana-bag-2659314319.html
