Que Te Perdone Dios on Monday, January 19, 2015 "Let's Do This!"
Bruno wants Pablo to prove his worth (and that unfortunately doesn't mean he can have Ren.) Pab. is happy to oblige; cowboy hat and all.
Renata is stripping and dipping in the typecast Abismo de Pasion lagoon while Pab. pulls up and watches. He removes his hat and all attire to make a splash with her. They kiss and after their skinny-dip, talk about marriage. He wants to make her happy and unfortunately, her parents are against this. He refers to himself as a peon and she reassures him of her unconditional love for him.
Fausto and Helena (Maria Sorte) talk about marriage.. with Renata. After Helena leaves, Macaria (whose rump roast has been on pause for a minute pipes up and) says to Fausto he can't marry Renata because she is his! Fausto reassures Mac about their relationship standing and soon wants to make whoopie with Mac but she says she isn't feeling it. After he leaves, to herself she starts with her, "You won't marry Renata, you!" babbles and we all know where this is headed.
Renata and Pablo are getting into some tender and toasty loving with the embellishment of wind chimes. (Might I say Brandon Peniche has a nice rump roast himself? Yes I shall.)
One of the no-name maids who I remember as Lucha from PSMA and a kid talk about Renata having been out for quite some time and that Bruno hasn't realized. She who has been baptized as Lucha until she has a legit name says God forbid any tragedies occur.
Macaria snitches on Ren to Bruno who has commanded it and tells him about their plan they had the day before. Bruno gets handsy with Mac and she spills the soup; Ren is with Pab! Bruto is walking up the type-cast spiral staircase from Al Diablo con Los Guapos and gets his rifle. He's got some shootin' to do. Macaria is thinking out loud that due to her tattle-tale, Renata Riquelme will be an untouchable; especially in the aspect of Fausto Lopez-Guerra.
Ren and Pab. are in bed professing love while Bruno is riding on horseback to abruptly disrupt the love-nest.
The maids and Mac are debating; Mac's mom who is one of the no-name maids reminds her she is just a maid and that Fausto is a man-whore (see the song He's a Tramp from Disney's Lady and the Tramp) but Mac isn't having that truth be told enter her ears. The kid from earlier is just glaring at Mac, says some choice words and walks away triumphantly.
Bruno has interrupted the love making and Pab. defends himself. Bruno has hit him in the face with the rifle and pulled away Renata with brute force, leaving Pab. for dead on the wooden floor.
Brute is yanking Ren inside and she kneels on the floor in agony. Constanza comes to comfort Ren and chide Brute to the best of her ability. He drops the ball; Renata was coitally involved with a no-body! She did it because she loves him with all her heart and will marry him. Connie asks Ren if she is pregnant while Brute keeps bitching and is about to shoot Ren. when Connie puts herself in front and he has a hard time shooting. Instead, he shall forbid Renata from coming out of the hacienda!
Pablo who has a bandage on his head is being encouraged by his brother/friend played by Manuel Ojeda (I think) to go incognito for his own good. Pablo says he loves Renata Riquelme and will not give up.
Connie and Ren talk mother/daughter talk (she clearly is the empathetic parent, ladies and gents.) Ren says that Pab loves her as much as she loves him. Yeah, Connie's sympathy is not all there as she tells her to abort and Ren objects (not that she IS, she is just antiabort in general, right?)
Mac snitches some more to Brute about how long Ren has been with Pab (give or take 3 months!) As penalty for not having reported to Brute ASAP, MAC-Bitch-in-Training and her no-name mom are on the dole, given the pink slip and just plain fired!
Ren says she had fainted so that could be a pregnancy sign. Connie says they should get an analysis (if not the sympathetic one, the smart one.) and that she will help her (2/2 ain't bad!) I think an abortion is mentioned once more (damn it, day one and I'm already docking someone repeatedly,) rejected and then Mac is chided by Greg now (and held hostage with Ren until her canary song is done. I think that they have it on loop by accident and haven't an idea how to revert it.)
BrujoBroGuy and Pablo talk about Renata and leaving some more. He is going to have to forget her but Pablo is resilient in keeping Renata and his relationship on lock! That's my perfect-rump-roast man!
Lucio (Alejandro Avilo's character who is reminiscent of Rubio from La Malquerida )and Fausto appear to be socios and pretty much partners-in-crime. 'Sto and Vic raise shot glasses to 'Sto soon marrying Ren because you know, Fausto Lopez-Guerra always gets what he wants and when he wants it.
Mac drops the ball to Ren; she and her no-name mom are fired. Ren wants to get Mac her job back and Mac is in total accordance. Mac is encouraging Hopelessly Romantic Renata to go find Pab. and run away with him. This is impeded by Brutus Fatherus. Ren is on her knees crying and begging him not to harm Pab.
Brujo Guy and Pab. talk with Lucio about 'Sto proposing to Ren which is slowly enfuriating Pab. Pab is going to take Ren away with him tonight. BrujoGuy is inside the cabin while Brutus is going to burn his cabin from the outside
(SARA, DIVA, ANYONE ELSE! LA SOMBRA DEL PASADO PROMO! IT'S COMING AFTER THAT MURF LA GATA! WOOT WOOT!)
The cabin is burning with BrujoBro inside. Oh Noes all around! Brutus just drives off.
Connie and MAC-Bitch see the distant fire from the window and 1 of the 2 (isn't it obvious?) choose to make a big stink about it in front of Ren who runs outside to see what the hubbub is all about. Connie is afraid of all the possibilities so she lights a candle when Pablo appears behind her and says he is there for Renata.
Avance(s)- Brute tells 'Sto he can take Ren and 'Sto has cone to claim her.

This was a nice premiere. I'll keep on watching.
I hated the theme song though.
"Macaria (who is all Sabine Moussier'd up skin, make-up and hair-wise)"
Yes. I knew right away that Macaria would eventually be played be Sabine. Speaking about Macaria, she has pearly white teeth. They really stood out in HD.
I love the name Brute. I'm already hating him. I loved it when Fausto suggested burying him if he became a problem.
I knew Pablo would make it out of the fire. I loved the end where she shows up at the hacineda and frightens Mommie Dearest.
Mauricio, I agree about the theme song. I already miss hearing the theme song of La Malquerida.
Is Brandon P's character going to die (again)? Can't wait to see Sabine and Fabian again as well as Altair and Ferdinando V.
I'll try and post more tomorrow.
Wow, this thing is really cheesy. The acting reminds me of the silent movies in their earliest days. I lay that entirely at the feet of the director, ‘cause there are plenty of excellent actors here. And more to come! A lot of my faves are in this thing, so I’m going to stick with it and see if it grows on me.
The scenery is lovely, though, and I did appreciate that there is an actual crop in the field, unlike in Malquerida where everybody said they were growing cotton but all we ever saw were empty plowed fields. Nice grapes! And the hacienda is cool, kinda Moorish or something.
What I saw of it was pretty. I liked the hacienda and practically every actor on the Televisa roster is in this.
Thanks for recapping and getting us started!
"Might I say Brandon Peniche has a nice rump roast himself? Yes I shall.)" and "Macaria (who is all Sabine Moussier'd up skin, make-up and hair-wise)" were excellent.
I agree that the scenery is spectacular and what a cast! I also cannot wait to see Altair, Fabian, Sabine and Ferdinando!
TF "Is Brandon P's character going to die (again)?" Although what happens has appeared in promos for this, I will only say that he has died in everything I've seen him in. Sigh.
Susanlynn, Macaria is being played by the actress from Robo who lost her sight (and Alejandro Avila's wife).
Forbidden love between different classes. A pregnancy. Attempted murder. All the usual TN components are in play. But, I'm going to give this a chance and see what happens.
I am thrilled the new Susana Gonzalez TN is coming next month so I am definitely in on that.
CS, thanks for a terrific recap.

I heard Rene Stickler is also in this novela,i wonder if he will last in this show ,he is like Sean Bean of the novelas,always getting killed ,like it is a part of some ritual! I do not recall any novela that he survived,maybe it got out of my memory
I only watched the first ten minutes, but I plan to watch the rest of the episode today. I like the camera angles as the camera zooms down into the hacienda. I like Ana Bertha and many of the other familiar actors.
I know who Sabine and Fabian are, but who is Altair and Ferdinando ?
LM it ain't but who doesn't like a mother, daughter, stepfather love triangle instead of a stereotypical Boss Hog bully daddy, damsel in distress, cowering coward mother, Robin Hood in tights and Snidely Whiplash.
Poor Brandon Peniche, dude needs to change agents.
I REALLY disliked both the theme song and the ending song,i expected some better song like on the tier of LM or Robo ( El Perdedor) so in that aspect i am terribly dissapointed.
As for MO,his appearance is so far horrifyingly bad but i will give it time,remember personality is sometimes a better atraction than the looks,he couldnt even catch the attention of my Grandmother if he tried!
I cannot wait to begin recapping this tommorow,it does not seem so hard to recap this show since it does not contain much dialogue.In short ,the novela has a lot of potential and i hope it is not wasted.
.
I'm seeing ties of Norbie (if he had a daughter at all) in Bruno; if he who slapped his wife on several occasions, burned his son's arm, organized the kidnapping of mentioned son's best friend and maybe 1 or 2 more things I'm forgetting can be redeemed, so could Brute. I'm probably just not used to Eric delCastillo as a baddie (his worst was Clemente in NAM and lastly was redeemed.)
I think what caught me off-guard the most about LSdP is that it's taking La Gata's timeslot. I think it deserved later since it's just at or surpassing PSMA-level dark but as you can tell, Uni and sometimes Televisa just care about airing the higest rated shows as soon as possible and creating specific novelas just so they don't have to air certain ones.
Altair has been in Mentir, Abismo, and Guapos to name a few. She's very interesting and a great villain.
Diana
And i kind of doubt Bruno resembles Norbie in any way so far,Norbie was much more sociopathic and crazy in nature and he was redeemed only around the end,when his son got killed. Bruno acts on anger because he has a temper,he wishes to protect his daughter and the reputation of his family but has false positives on how to fulfill that role ,like Constanza( Ren's mom) said he actually wished for a son.
And i could just see the uneasiness when he was burning the house,he was not laughing away,it more felt like his soul was dying inside.
But his untrust and his temper and his superiority struggle will bite him in the ass ,i am sure of it!
But again,this is only episode 1,we shall see how his development goes on in the future.So far the only thing i cannot withstand yet is the crappy opening song LOL
ITA the scenery was gorgeous. I have to give a shout-out to Eric del Castillo - he looked fabulous in a blazer. This is my first time seeing him as a baddie. Brandon Peniche was a cutie in his short haircut too.
I like a lot of the cast, and I'm looking forwarding to seeing what type of character Fabian Robles will play. Not so sure about the story though.
I have an opinion that even if we have all of the best stars in one movie and the writing sucks to high heavens,it would be a waste of time,just like The Expendables ..
I've only seen Altair play rich bitch villainesses and Ferdinando, I've only seen him play pretty boy villains. Although I understand he was a pretty good guy in the novela where Silvia Navarro was in a grape field (?). I didn't see that one.
Bruto was doing too much! Shotguns, burning down the house etc.
McNasty was trifling too, snitching on Renata one minute but grinning up in her face the next.
Poor Connie probably wants to help Renata but doesn't want to catch a cup of crazy from Bruto, either.
Bruno did look as if he felt bad burning down the shack. Still, I'm not liking him. Not liking Mommie Dearest either after her suggesting abortion.
I frogot to mention - the scene at the lake when Renata was skinny dipping and Pab shows up and starts to get undressed was creepy at first. They made it seem as if Pab was gonna attack Renata. Then it turned sweet when Renata was happy to see him.
I too thought the dunking scene was creepy at first but it all went better when she finally saw him.For me it was a quite well done scene .
Romy
p.s. love the snarky recap keep it coming.
Looks great so far but 10-11pm isn't easy.
The ranch/farm hacienda and scenery was so lovely and had great appeal.
It is always hard to start with a whole bunch of new characters. I'm going crazy trying to figure out who everyone is and Spanish names are not always to catch on to. Nicknames are fine but even more confusing the first week or to. I guess that eventually I will catch on to all that are in the cast. Sabine and Brandon are about the only cast members that I know or can recognize right from the start.
I wasn't impressed with the theme song either.
One thought that did come to mind last night---In LM at one point Hector was talking to Acacia. Acacia didn't want to hear it and started to walk away. Hector reached out and held her arm to get her to stop for a few minutes and listen. Cries went up---He manhandled her. QUE? He didn't manhandle her at all but the father Bruno really did manhandle his daughter last night. WOW! What a mean/hot tempered brute.
Was that daughter Iran Castillo?
If Renata was Iran, I didn't recognize her at all.
So the writers are trying to kill off Brandon early on. He lasted most of the way through LM. Can't wait to see where this will go tonight.
the gringo
Does anyone know the title of Susana Gonzales' new tn And when it starts?
Romy
the gringo
Romy
I don't think it matches the "feel" of the opening credits though.
I have been wondering why they chose Iran to play "young" Renata when she's 38! My contemporary, so I'm not saying she's old, but if we're talking about playing a teen/early 20s, too long in the tooth. It's not like she and Rebecca Jones are dead ringers so they felt like they couldn't pass up using her. Just doesn't make sense.
Well, poor Brandon had his arm and hand bandaged in LM, and he has graduated to a head bandage in this one.
I , too, am wondering how we are supposed to buy Iran as a teen.
Ana Bertha looks beautiful in that green wrap. I want it.
Curly is a little weasel.
I'm liking MO better as a brujo/curandero. He certainly looks the part.
Saw this last night. Hated the theme song. I will be FF through that tonight.
Vivi, ITA, the actress playing Renata too old to be playing that role.
I can't wait for Mark Thatcher, the only reason I am watching this. Loved him in La Hija del Mariachi. Also have to agree on the rump roast on Brandon Peniche.
Hasta pronto...
