Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #50 10/24/14
Old:
Manjarres offers Lucas a chance to work with him again to make lots of money. He claims it's legit, but Lucas ain't biting.
Dani cries over Lucas yet again.
New:
Paco and Araceli fight over the lawsuit. He doesn't understand why she would sue the Ripolls without his say-so. She doesn't understand why he is defending Sofia Ripoll and attacking his own daughter. Araceli says she just talked to Sofia. No lawsuit hasn't been filed. But... he might want to give it some thought.
Pato has taken Silvana's advice to be edgy and spontaneous. He offers Sofia a walk on the wild side! How about an Australian honeymoon! Or maybe they should go to Vegas and get married by an Elvis impersonator!
Chava and Armie talk about what happened (or didn't happen) with Araceli. Chava thinks Araceli would make a wonderful wife - for someone else. He still wants Sofia and he's going to keep trying but realizes that Sofia will make the final decision. He just wants her to be happy. Armie remembers the big kiss with Alexa at the airport. Back at the mansion, Alexa is remembering the same thing. While she's remembering, she sees her door handle moving slowly. Someone is trying to sneak into her bedroom! She thinks it might be Alan. She grabs a piece of ugly art and waits behind the door. The door opens slowly and Alexa nearly smashes Dani who has come into to whine about Lucas. Alexa lets her crying sister sleep in her bed.
Next morning at the factory Pato and Sofia talk about the lawsuit. Sofia thinks Octavio was a saint and never did anything wrong.
Fausto and Greta talk about Alan. Fausto thinks the guy was kind of a cockroach. Greta is shocked that Fausto has such a low opinion of that wonderful, talented and charming gentleman.
Chava tells Araceli he ain't interested. They are just good friends.
Alan shows up at the Ripoll house. He orders Aurora to go get Alexa. When she comes in he tells the maid to get lost and starts to rough Alexa up. Greta hears the screaming and tries to pull him off. The maids hide in the kitchen and watch through the door crack. See Greta, when you treat your help like crap they don't come running to your rescue! Armie sees what's going on and runs to help. He finally gets to give Alan a hard punch in the face.
Sofia tells Silvana about Pato's unusual honeymoon plans. Pato is surprising her, they might finally be really connecting.
Matias brings Pato a report and Pato tells him that he finally managed to get Silvana off his back. Matias tells Pato he's full of crap. He knows Pato is still stringing Silvana along. But one of these days Pato will get what's coming to him. Karma is a bitch and it's headed Pato's way.
Marisol, Dani and Lucas argue about the same old crap.
Greta tells Fausto to make sure Alan never sets foot in the house again. Fausto assures her he will make sure that the security guards know. In the meantime, Armie escorts (pushes and drags) Alan to the gates of the property. Armie and the security guard toss his butt out on the street. But just like skunk odor, Alan swears they'll never get rid of him.
This is all I got to see. Please feel free to discuss the rest in the comments.

Pedro really is leaving! I think! Can someone translate this?
1.) Patrick
2.) Silvana
3.) Renzi
4.) Irma
5.) Marisol
6.) Alan
7.) The Mafia
8.) Araceli
Article also says that the leading candidate to replace him is David Zepeda.
Wow ! How are they going to redo the scenes and intros ?
The main action you missed later was:
1) After Alan outs her, Alexa comes clean to Greta that everything about her acting career was a lie. As usual, Greta lets her off the hook, and blames Octavio for deciding what careers his two oldest daughters would have, thereby ruining their lives--Sofia the biz administrator, and Alexa the actress. Greta promises to keep the secret from Sofia and Dani, then suggests Alexa find a new purpose, like finding a rich man to marry. I'm not kidding. Alexa and Armie take the symbols of her movie star ambitions and leave them out at an acting school for anyone to take.
2) The story about the stolen chocolate recipes hits the presses. Sofia loses it and accuses Paco and Araceli to Chava. He defends them and lets slip that he knew about Paco's story quite a while now. She accuses Chava of being a traitor for keeping this from her. Chava goes and accuses Araceli. She vehemently denies. Paco comes home and accuses her. That really ticks her off. She goes to the factory to deny it to Sofia's face and ! have tries to stop her. Meanwhile, Pato is trying to convince Sofia that Chava must be the enemy within and that his whole entrance into Ripoll was part of the plot.
Wow! Pedro is leaving. I cannot even imagine why he was signed to play the lead if the producers knew there were problems with him playing romantic scenes in previous TNs. I wonder if they'll write in an accident and plastic surgery to change actors. I haven't watched David Zepeda in anything because frankly he looks too much like a catalog model or a department store mannequin.
My opinion on the whole Pedro Fernández replacement rumor is what Diana said yesterday ". . .if you can't act/become the character then maybe you should just stick to singing."
In the realm of professional acting the whole jealousy/kiss thing just seems silly. It sounds like a publicity stunt that someone would have come up with in the 1950's.
I dislike so many of the characters now, that I am only watching with one eye so to speak. If they replace Fernández that might just be the the impetus to stop watching this tripe period. If they replace him because he wants out for this lame reason then they obviously miscast him or asked the wrong questions when they did cast him. Do they not have more respect for their viewers/fans?
Anyway, last night for me the highlight was Alan getting bloodied up and thrown off the prooerty. Greta was so ineffectual trying to save Alexa. Like she could not grab something and hit him in the head with it? Better yet, why didn't Alexa go for where she really coulld have hurt him?
At least Greta did state she readily believed Alexa's fantasies because it was easier for her.
Areceli needs to stick a sock in it already as well as Lucas.
Cynderella, maybe they had round trip tickets so that they could come back to Mexico and try to swindle more money from Greta whenever they needed to.

Remember, in a previous TN, Edith Gonzalez's character was injured in a horrible house fire set by her crazy aunt and months later, Ana Patricia Rojo took over the lead character.
I'm seeing the rumors of him leaving as a publicity stunt !
My favorite line was "See Greta, when you treat your help like crap they don't come running to your rescue!". "She grabs a piece of ugly art and waits behind the door" and "Armie escorts (pushes and drags) Alan to the gates of the property" also made me smile.
Jarifa, I also thoroughly enjoyed Alan's thumping at Armando's hands. However, he takes a licking and keeps on ticking. You would have thought being beaten to a pulp several times already would have taught him a lesson. Nopis. I fear we haven't seen the last of him.
Vivi, thank you for the added details. I have faith Sophia will give Chava the benefit of the doubt although she feels she has been ambushed by the story and by Chava's previous knowledge. Let's hope we see some of the fire Chava has exhibited toward Pato. Deep down he knows Pato is rotten to the core. Now he needs to go and prove it.
Greta telling Alexa she should marry a rich man made me cringe. Yes Greta, what wonderful advice in the 21st century. Ack.
"He claims it's legit, but Lucas ain't biting". Hmm, I was kind of hoping the little swindler would cave - I'm so anxious for less Lucas screen time and see a man introduced who is worthy of Dani and Marisol's adoration
Speaking of Marisol, Steve do you really see her as an antagonist? Yes, she has been open in coveting Lucas (heaven knows why), and she has tried to get his attention repeatedly despite his assertions he has a girl friend. Err, had a girlfriend, but I haven't seen anything to warrant being in Pato, Renzi and Silv's company. Perhaps you know something I don't :)
When an average looking actor without immediately apparant charm and charisma is given a lead role, they must project earnestness, honesty, humor and sweetness. While Pedro has done a realatively good job in these regards, his passionless, robotic romantic performance has left me cold. If we do not believe he cares about Sophia with equal parts love and lust, the character is doomed.
If he does leave, I wish he and his wife many more happy years together and hope he never rues leaving a role that many others would kill for (so to speak) as I suspect this will be his last.
I don't care for Zepada but I think they are somewhat similar physically, but believe Zepada will bring the romantic emotion so lacking here. And, he can rumble with the best of them. In the end, I think it might help the storyline.
As long as Matias doesn't leave, I guess I really don't care.
Diana
See Greta, when you treat your help like crap they don't come running to your rescue!
But just like skunk odor, Alan swears they'll never get rid of him.
Greta is a piece of work. Instead of hunting for a rich husband, how about Alexa go to acting school.
My favorites are Chava (when he’s not kissing) and Matias. I hope Pedro stays. Kirby, I like your idea of bringing in a kiss double.

Alan quite scared me in this episode,he should visit a manicomio once in a while! It would not suprise me one bit if he decides to join the Mafia out of revenge.That Pato and Alan scene back then surely was not filmed for nothing..
A.) Ultimas Semanas
B.) Ultimas Capitulos
C.) Gran Final
And not only that, he's not leaving until the end of NOVEMBER. A whole other month! They are already months ahead of us, and add that. The show would about be over.
All I could think was if he does this, he'll never act again. He does seem to have a really strong family life, which I admire.
I'd never watched his other telenovela, so getting to love Chava Cruz has been really a lot of fun. I was definitely looking forward to the rest of this show with him.
As for the supposed replacement of Pedro Fernandez ,David Zepeda would be the best.I can see him wearing a hat Lol and might be just be a perfect strategy for him to infiltrate the Mafia :) .But Pedro was not so bad for me,,for once i would have liked the ugly but charming guy to get the girl but if Pedro has to leave then so be it..
Is anyone going to watch La Sombra del Pasado? It airs on November the 10th in Mexico starring Alexis Ayala,Thelma Madrigal as the antangoists and the actors who potrayed Esteban and Aranza ( From Por Siempre Mi Amor) as the main protangoists. It also stars Susana Gonzales :) I cannot resist Mr.Ayala so i will happily watch it 😈
I am sick and tired of random accidents and memory losses. These things are even more annoying than the Bad Girl getting pregnant. Chava is the main hero of the story and he needs to be treated accordingly.If writers mess up the protangoists,they end messing up everything..
I do not know if this is speculation, or fact, but am passing it along.

I enjoy all your comments and insights. You're kidding, right?

Jarifa, don't go! Your comments would be missed!

Zepeda is in. As I said before I think this guy looks like a mannequin. I hope his acting is better than his looks.
Hopefully we won't lose many commenters because of this. It's already disheartening to work for hours on a recap and have only 9 comments.
Xint, I hope that most of us will continue to watch and comment - we may be small in number but we are supportive and appreciative.
I can only imagine the time and effort it takes to recap and you and all the recappers' efforts are truly appreciated. I am sure it must be discouraging to see so few comments.
Many of our beloved recappers and bloggers are not watching this so the number of comments has been considerably less. But, I believe others are watching and reading and hope they will come forward and comment.
I also believe there are some DZ loyal fans - perhaps they will start commenting once he is here. I hope so.

If they do not take care of this situation well,this could be an even worse novela than La Tempestad or Corazon Insoportable ...
I like David, and if it's not too stupidly done, I'll probably get used to it. I really loved La Fuerza del Destino, including the Álamos, Sonora, setting.
If it's true Pedro's health is poor, I am really sorry to hear that. To me, he looked healthy and not underweight. He's not a huge guy; he's in good shape, though. I came to think he's really appealing, and that can only be from the force of his acting.
So I would be more than happy for this to be a telenovela dream I'm going to wake up from. I really wanted to see how this shook out.
I was liking Salvador so much, I was interested in seeing his other telenovelas. It's really too bad.
The recaps have been stellar no matter what's up there on the screen. Xlnt, Cynderella, CorazonSalvaje, and Madelaine - Muchisimas gracias!
I count myself as a Zepeda fan, even though he drove me nuts on Mentir Para Vivir. Hey, DZ and Diego Olivares were mortal enemies on that one, so it could be fun to see them as buddies in this one. I second Diana that the comments could actually pick up with the change.

1. In Abismo de Pasion, after Damian (his character) made love to Elisa, Damian left her and walked along the beach wearing only his underwear. His muscles glistening in the moonlight.
2. The yellow underwear fight scene between Bruno (Z) and Alex.
3. Mentir para Vivir- his clothes fell off whenever the female lead was near him. He should have gotten an Oscar for that outstanding performance.
4. I can't leave out the incredible shirtless arm wrestling scene in the opening credits of Animal design Passion!

Wow, maybe now it will be worth watching and not having to look at ugly PF
Plus, the love scenes.
