Lo Imperdonable #10 Fri 5/29/15 In Which Venom Is Spewed And Veronica and Magdalena Are Codemned
CASA PRADO CASTELO
Outside
Veronica wraps her arms around Martin's arm and tells her future husband that she has no doubt now that she's in love with him. Martin sees this as a red flag and release his arm from her grasp and gives her this "if looks could kill" face behind her back. He tells her that he doesn't get her - just yesterday she was telling him she needed time and now she tells him she's sooo in love with him and wants to get married. Does she really want it? he asks her. Of course she'd get married to him and if it were up to her it would be right then and there. She realizes that he's become serious and asks him why he has gotten so serious. Is he sure that what she told him about her parents doesn't bother him? Of course he's not bothered by it. She wants him to be honest - if he's not sure about marrying her then she wants him to tell her. She tells him that she'd understand. He tells her that of course he wants to marry her - now more than ever and as soon as possible.
Study
Emi wants Jorge to tell him what he talked about with Martin. He lets Jorge know that he told Veronica that he wanted nothing to do with her. Jorge thinks Emi is going to the extremes because Veronica rejected him once. "In business like in life you have to have patience" Jorge tells Emi. Jorge lets Emi know he didn't accept Martin's offer because it would mean the family would have a commitment with him and it would things for Emi with Veronica. Emi serves himself a drink and tells Jorge he should accept Martin's offer - at least it would save the company from a crisis. Emi tells Jorge he's no longer interested in Veronica because she's a fake and liar. Jorge snatches the drink from Emi's hand and tells him that he won't allow him to speak like that about Veronica. Emi tells Jorge that now he knows that Veronica and Demetrio slept together at Casa Prado Castelo. Jorge is aghast and can't believe this. Emi tells Jorge that Virginia herself saw Veronica with Demetrio on various occasions. Jorge can't believe this about Veronica who has always respected their home. Jorge is determined to go and speak with Virginia despite Emi telling him its not necessary and that Virginia isn't feeling well. Just then the door opens and Virginia walks into the room. Jorge wants Virginia to tell him all about Demetrio.

Escondida and Pueblo Nuevo both have their own charm - that's why he
moved there. Mariana agrees that the town is ummm exotic but she's a

Jorge asks Virginia what the hell happened between Veronica and
Demetrio. Virginia starts the crocodile tears and plays victim. "I did
nothing" she wails. Emi tells Virginia that he told his dad about Veronica
and Demetrio. Virginia wails "how could you?" "you are going to cause
problems for me" "Veronica hates me". Jorge tells Virginia that Veronica
doesn't hate her. They're different and that's why they fight. Emi
apologizes to Virginia and tells her that Jorge wants to hear her out
because he still believes Veronica is the innocent girl who he received
in the family. Virginia clutches her heart as if to remind them that
she's soooo sick... (oh please..)
Outside
"Something
wrong?" Veronica asks Martin. "No, I'm just a little anxious
to give the first steps of the long path that awaits us" he replies.
She tells him not to say it all so serious. "You don't know how anxious I
am
for us to be together alone, because since I saw you for the first time
I knew it was you" he tells her. She tells him that she knows he's the
man
for her. She loves him and there is something special that he
awakens in her. She swears that she has never felt this. "Never?" he
asks her. They are interrupted by a worker who calls Veronica's name
and
Martin looks away and tells her that Chucho is looking for her. She
tells Martin to wait for her in the house if he wants because they still
have a lot to talk about. Veronica tells Martin that she knows
that he loves her or else he wouldn't want to get married so soon. But
why does he resist? He doesn't get to respond because Chucho interrupts
again. Martin goes back inside and
Veronica leaves with Chucho.
Study
Jorge tells Virginia that if he asks her it's because he has a right to
know what happens inside his home and with the people he cares about
the most. Meanwhile, Martin enters the mansion and eavesdrop on the
conversation. Jorge isn't worried that Veronica had gone out with
whoever she wanted to because after all Veronica is a woman and had every right
to be with who she wanted. What Jorge doesn't like are the lies and that
his home wasn't respected. Virginia continues to play victim and wails
that she doesn't want Veronica to find out. She refuses to talk because
Veronica will make her life miserable. Jorge promises that this will
remain between the three of them. Emi tells Virginia that all he wants
is for Jorge to not be fooled by Veronica like he once was. Emi now
knows Veronica is a liar. Virginia tells Emi that if she told him what
she knew it was so he wouldn't continue to suffer. Jorge asks her what
she knew. Virginia spews her venom and says that Veronica always has to
pick up any man she likes. Jorge did think it was strange that Veronica
would be interested in Martin when they just met (he has a point there)
but to think the worse of Veronica.... Virginia tells Jorge that it's
the first time Veronica has been careless and realizes that she picks up
someone. Virginia says that Veronica always gets whoever gets close to
her and once she has him eating from hand she throws him away. Virginia
wails and whines that Jorge never believes her. He loves Veronica and
believes her. Virginia says there's no point in her continuing to speak.
She gets up to leave but Jorge orders her to sit. He wants Virginia to
tell him all she knows especially about Veronica's relationship with
Demetrio. Virginia explains that one day she forgot to take her heart
pills and went to get a glass of water. When she was returning to her
room she heard a noise from Veronica's room. It was like a moan and when
she opened the door she saw Demetrio in Veronica's bed. He was naked
and on top of Veronica. *flash of lighting* as Martin tries to take all
this news in. All he heard has definitely fed his thirst for revenge and
has confirmed to him that Veronica's the BAD WOMAN. We see an image of
Demetrio and Veronica making love which is probably in Martin's head.
Virginia swears what she says is true. She says that Veronica and
Demetrio were lovers.
Flashback
Demetrio enters Virginia's room through her window. She tells him that
she loves that he does these things for her - it makes her life more
exciting. Demetrio doesn't want to continue hiding their
relationship anymore and wants to speak with Jorge. Virginia doesn't
want Demetrio to speak with Jorge. She tells him that if Jorge finds out
about their relationship he'll think it's because he's interested in
her money and not only will he lose his job but Jorge will make doors
close everywhere for Demetrio. Demetrio tells Virginia that he's a
decent man and a hard worker and that should be enough for Jorge to
accept him. Besides Jorge knows he's not interested in money. Well,
Virginia is interested but only because she doesn't want to break off
with her family (oh please...really? is that the real reason?..)
Demetrio insists in speaking with Jorge. He's sure Jorge will
understand. Virginia says that Jorge is reasonable but is blind when it
comes to Salma. Virginia tells Demetrio that Salma has always wanted her
to marry Emi. And despite her telling Salma "No" she continues to
insist. If Salma finds out about them then he'll have her against him
too. Virginia tells Demetrio that what he has to do is find a way to
make a lot of money. End of Flashback.

Virginia swears on HER life that many nights she saw Demetrio climbing a tree to get inside the second floor of the mansion.

Vero enters the mansion and wants to get something to drink with
Martin. Martin excuses himself and tells her something came up at the

Jorge can't believe that Veronica would have done such a thing. Why? If
it was so easy for her to tell him that she loved Demetrio. "For sure
it was so you wouldn't change with her, Veronica told me one day that
her advantage over me, was that you wanted for her and Emi to be
together" Virginia says. Jorge finds all this hard to believe. Virginia
whines that she knew that Jorge wouldn't believer her. Salma enters the
study while Virginia swears that Veronica received Demetrio at nights.
Virginia says that even she argued with Demetrio. Salma backs up Virginia in
what she says. Emi wants them stop talking about Veronica. "How could
she disrespect us like this, she had no reason to lie and hide things, I
never forbade her anything" Jorge says. In fact right now she is with
someone who Jorge doesn't approve of. Emi says that he's so disappointed
in Veronica that he doesn't even know if he wants to continue having
contact with her. Jorge asks Emi to bring Veronica. Emi doesn't think
there is a point - they already know Veronica lied to them (That's
right, condemn her without even hearing her side. Idiot) Jorge says if
that's case then they'll unmask her and let her know that she can't fool
them anymore. Salma doesn't think Veronica should be called - what
matters is that both Jorge and Emi know the kind of woman Veronica is.
Jorge is still not sure what to believe. Salma asks Jorge what he will
do. Will he tell her what he knows? Argue with her? If he does that then
he'll have to kick her out. Virginia plays victim and says she didn't
want all this to happen. Salma says that she always knew how Veronica was
and says that both Jorge and Emi were blinded. Emi says he knows that
Veronica is a hypocrite and a liar. Emi angrily tells Salma not to worry - he
doesn't plan on marrying Veronica because she prefers someone else. Emi
leaves. Salma says that things happen for a reason and for her it's luck
that her son be disappointed in someone like Veronica. Salma doesn't
think they should hurt Veronica further. "If Martin loves Veronica and
she corresponds then it's better to have a wedding than a scandal" Salma
says. Virginia says that she sees Veronica interested in Martin and
asks Jorge not to argue with her - there is no point of it. Salma thinks
they should support Veronica so she gets married. Salma asks Jorge in
the name of the family for this subject not to be talked about again.
Salma doesn't want Jorge to tell Veronica and Martin about this.
Demetrio already disappeared from their lives. Jorge agrees to support
Veronica so she get married and distant herself from there. Jorge says
that he's truly disappointed in Veronica. Veronica enters the study at that moment and
asks if something is wrong.

Botel explains to Magdalena that he was drunk and didn't know what he

town what he knows about her. Botel says if that's the case then he'll
defend her and shut up whoever dares insult her. She asks how he will
shut Manuel up if they don't have a marriage certificate because they
aren't married. Magdalena didn't mind not being married as long as no one
in town found out. She's sure that now everyone will condemn her without

Veronica
wants to know what the is going on. Jorge asks her if she
realllly wants to know. (Dude, of course she does, that's why she asked)
Salma says they were talking about her - they are sooooo intrigued
about her relationship with Martin. They can see that Martin is
interested in her and Veronica knows that the house has norms she must
follow. Jorge says that at this point there is point in talking about
norms. Veronica wants to know what is going on. Jorge says that Martin
told him that he wants to marry Veronica and from what he knows Veronica
wants to marry him too. Veronica says yes she does want to marry him.
She doesn't understand why they have the long faces if they are talking
about her happiness with Martin. Or were they talking about something
else? Jorge says that Veronica made her decision without caring what the
family thinks. Salma and Virginia will leave so Veronica and Jorge can
talk. Before leaving, Salma reminds Jorge that they'd love to have a
wedding at the house soon. Salma tells Veronica that they'll talk later.
Salma and Virginia leave. Veronica tells Jorge that she's sorry that
he's upset that she loves Martin but she can't help it - she fell in
love. "Yes and verryyyy fast" Jorge says. Veronica asks Jorge if he
would have preferred that she accepted Emi pretending to feel something
she does not. Of course not. Jorge doesn't like lies. Veronica doesn't
like them either - that's why she says that she wants to marry Martin.
Veronica tells Jorge that now that they know Martin has a gold mine he
can't say that Martin wants to be with her because she's a Prado
Castelo. And if that were the case, Martin would be disappointed,
because the
fortune of the family doesn't belong to her. Jorge says that she's
mistaken - she will always be a Prado Castelo no matter who she is.

Thanks Mauricio, very much for taking the time to recap this - you do a great job with all of the detail in the conversations and I really do appreciate that:)
ITA with La Paloma's last paragraph about the abuelo, Manuel etc. down in the jungle. Not terribly interesting and very frustrating switching back and forth from the Prado Castelo home to the group in Mina Escondida. I mean the former is the central story so why keep diverting to the one of questionable interest, at least to me. Hopefully, this strategy will abate soon. Does it have something to do with contemporary lack of focus? The main story is interesting and I am very interested in following it, particularly since I've never seen any of the previous interpretations...why can't they stick with that??
Oh well, it's all pretend anyway!! Thank goodness!

Jorge is an IDIOT for buying Virginia's BS!
Martin is also an idiot for blaming his brother's suicide on Veronica!
Martin is also an idiot for blaming his brother's suicide on Veronica!
Yes, while Jorge did have his doubts at first he ended up accepting and believing that Veronica is bad and without even hearing HER side of the story. Sigh...
I LOVED the ending and the punch Veronica gives Virginia. Darn you Jorge for stopping a second and possibly third punch.

This has been a great read and all the details help me understand the story better.
I CANNOT believe that Jorge won't even talk to Veronica about this!!! He raised her, he loves her as a daughter, yet he chooses to believe in Virginia??
All this plotting behind Veronica's back is getting exasperating to watch. And when she gets the chance to talk, she's so vague about everything. No wonder Martin believes she's guilty, she seems so willing to marry him fast now that he has a gold mine.

Wow Wow WOw Mauricio. I didn't catch last night's episode and honestly, you covered in spades so not sure I need to. Amazing.
So the old everyone suddenly believes the person they lived with for years and years, admired, worked closely with is suddenly a ho and no worth their time. And won't even give them two secs to speak for themselves? Ok, then. We all need to put on our beanies, take a long sip of our margaritas and just take all this nonsense as the pure setup for the rest of the story.
And frankly, if I was Martin, who does NOT have the personally history with Vero, I'd be a bit perplexed as well with her at how sure and willing she is to just sign on the marriage certificate dotted line.

Mauricio,
Thank you for this terrific recap! I haven't seen the episode yet, but you wrote in such detail that I feel like I've seen it by reading the recap. And I love this line: "Veronica catches Virginia slithering down the stairs". Nice touch!
Like everyone, I can't believe that Jorge won't give Veronica the benefit of the doubt and talk to her first before jumping to conclusions.
I'm so tired of Virginia already; I don't know if I can take 100 more episodes of her whiny manipulations.

Thanks for this thorough clearly written recap, Mauricio. I especially enjoy your parenthetical remarks.
Well, the unpleasantness surrounding Martín just continues to mount. In addition to being a disgraceful ungentlemanly lout, we see that he is also a creepy sneaky skulker. I did however admire that sportcoat that he was wearing.
I was surprised to see Jorge and Emiliano going along with trying and convicting poor Victoria in absentia. Ginny could barely contain her glee at how effortlessly she is able to manipulate these two dolts.

Well, at least Salma doesn't seem to be completely in thrall of Ginny's wiles but for now they seem to suit her purposes.
"Virginia draws a heart around her and Emi with a black sharpie."
And also retouched Veronica's image in the same photo by adding a moustache and goatee... what a little scamp!
Gobluefan,
I also like the love theme for Ana Perla and Pablo very much.
Joaquín proves that it's not only women who look great in headbands.

Well, the unpleasantness surrounding Martín just continues to mount. In addition to being a disgraceful ungentlemanly lout, we see that he is also a creepy sneaky skulker. I did however admire that sportcoat that he was wearing.

thanks, Mauricio, for that detailed recap. I was at a concert last night and missed the show.
I must comment on the Thursday episode. I was delighted to see Osvaldo ( Big Sexy the sweet baboo of LM) last night. Uhoh, he does not look like a sweet baboo in this tn though. Yikes.Ginny is doing the bunny hop with a hot doc or a hot dude pretending to be a doctor. Hmmm,..He makes house calls, so I am suspicious. Carlos, Do any real doctors make house calls these days ?
Carlos I can only imagine your joy at watching the deliciously evil Ginny playing her evil games. So..she needs young (cough..sputter..meh) Emilinino for the cash , but Doctor Love is providing the cardio therapy.

DOes every telenovela use the love at first sight ploy? Ivan the Terrible is a hunk of burning love..especially when he is standing next to The Nino , but ..wait...what ???..Very wants to get married muy pronto ? QTH ? I am getting a little tired of this plotline.
P.s. Maybe we should keep an eye on the buttons on The Nino's shirt...that open neckline seems to be deepening. Hub glanced at the TV as he was passing through the room , saw The Nino, and muttered.his nickname for Sergio..."Lounge Lizard."

Thank you Mauricio, very well done.
"(Dude, of course she does, that's why she asked)"
Susanlynn, "Lounge Lizard" if perfect for Sergio, hehe
Wonder how many women Abuelo has destroyed, sick xxuk, and got him a willing protege.
I marvel at Virgina's craft and had everyone chasing their tails with ease. The genius of her play is knowing what doubt exist, planting a seed and allowing the blanks to be filled by the unwitting parties. She's better than ever in a group as rabble rouser.
So, Martin believes his brother was in love and killed himself over Veronica and she gave herself repeatedly to him, believes Demetrio still lives, yet Martin wants to marry and bed her. He is the most perverse nut job in this story, revenge my arse. No one even comes close so far.
While sympathetic to Magdalena, a little, she leaves one drunk for another and expects a different outcome and stays. Since she is concerned what the people think of her (or that the stoning threat real) why not take the first boat out of town? I'm not gonna be able to take her sniveling.
Someone needs to drop a rock on Botel's head and put him out of his misery. Worthless drunk and why would anyone speak to Manuel anyway if the didn't have to?

Ivan the Terrible and El Nino!! LOL, Susanlynn, you crack me up.
Daisy, I, too, get why Martin would be suspicious of Vero's sudden "let's get married fast because you have a gold mine". What is this girl thinking? Of course now that everyone in her family, her beloved uncle included, is giving her the cold shoulder, she will want to marry Martin ASAP, but an accomplished woman like her should just move out, date Martin for a couple of years and THEN see if she wants to marry the guy.
Geez, that won't make much of a story, right?

Tofie, great point about Magdalena! She did leave one drunk for another one and she expects a better outcome? I don't understand why she couldn't go back for her daughter at a later time. Child abandonment stories in tn are the norm, but they rarely work because the excuses they give are just so weak.
Carlos, I agree that Martin is not the best of teh galans right now, but for some reason I can't feel much simpathy for Veronica, either. The way she talks about being independent and then proves the exact opposite with her actions is just wrong. It is a scrip issue, something to move the story along, but I still don't like it.
So, yeah, I don't like her for being such a love sick idiot and I don't like him for wanting revenge for such a stupid reason, BUT Ivan Sanchez is a hotty, therefor Martin will probably get a pass from me for most of his bad deeds.

Nope she (Vsnake) doe not even like the Studmuffin Doctor either. She thought-bubbled that when she becomes rich she will no longer have to tolerate the bastard doctor. So he is just another chess piece to her .
I thought I hated Grrrreta. This one, I wouldn't allow Onix to mount.

Hi Susanlynn,
I was initially somewhat worried that Ginny might be a bit too lukewarm and sickly to vex Verónica effectively but she seemed sufficiently frisky and cold blooded in last evening's episode to live up to my high expectations.
By the way, I've also been watching Outlander... Yikes!
Adriana,
"... I can't feel much sympathy for Veronica..."
Nor can I. It's a good thing that she hasn't chosen to be a professional poker player.

Mauricio,
Thanks for your recap! I loved your recaps in La Tempestad and I love them now!
As long as we are talking about miscasting, am I the only one who thinks Demetrio was a bit long in the tooth to be climbing trees to sneak into his girlfriends room?! That's a high school move not the administrator of a jewelry company!?
But the character who is cast PERFECTLY. For Em-Olds(thanks DaisynJay) BFF is Nicolas. He looks like he's ready to jump in a mini van with his family to go to Disney: the same stage Em-Old should be at. Actually that's too young for Em-Old. I see him visiting his first grandchild if he were really playing his age!
The actor who plays Pablo (Gretel's real life ex) would be perfect as a tree clinbing novio, or as just-home-from-studies-in-Spain Emiliano. OK my rant is over!:)
Thanks again, Mauricio!

Wonderful recap!
I must admit I'm having a hard time with this show. Martin and Vero are moving just too fast. I understand it from his view, wanting vengeance, but Vero is smart so why is she rushing? They've know each other like 3 to 4 days. If we knew she just wanted to get out of the house, like Virginia, then I would understand but all this talk of love is too much. I'm not feeling it.
Ana Perla has that hunky guy working in her house and all she sees is Pablo?! Damn I'd choose RF in a heartbeat!!

OT....Carlos...Today was The Outlander marathon of this past season's shows. I watched the first two shows of this season which I missed...Wow and Yikes, indeed.Shades of Highlander, no ? Don't forget that tonight is the season finale . I had to turn off the last episode..too graphically horrible.OMG ..talk about a vile villain...yikes. I am hoping that he gets his tonight.

Thank you for the wonderful recap, Mauricio, complete with clever asides. Just excellent.
So two weeks into the story and we are already like Olympian gods looking down from The Patio and amusing ourselves at the expense of the poor mortals. We are damn near omniscient. We get to yell at the tv at the Stupid Human Tricks (Don't marry her! Don't believe that minx in a headband! Don't go with him – he's nuts! Why would you say that!?)
Okay. It's true that even when you take their limited information into account, everyone is making TERRIBLE decisions. Maybe we'll need to stock up on the nerf mangazos.

Mauricio-good detailed recap.
All the nastiness has arrived. These people believe lies way to easily. Everything she acused ronnie of she did it. They are stupido to believe the lies. The same with the towns people. They don't know the whole story of magdalena (I think thats her name) leaving her abusive husband. How did her daughter get left behind? Anybody know?
Marty is as dumb as they are. He hasn't even done a decent investigation. stupid is what stupid does.

Veronica: Finish your drink and fasten your seatbelt, radar shows a smidgen of turbulence ahead.
As a matter if fact, if you can get the emergency door off just jump out, it would still beat the ride down.

Kirby: let's see if Virginia & Salma pull a Peralta to up their nastiness because I've got a feeling that the body count might increase!
Yeah Steve. Virginia is a nasty little beacuh isnt she? And she doesn't have hired helpers to go around killing people.. I have not really seen Salma's angle yet. I"ll guaranteeeee you it is not simply a Mother's love.
I am not sure why Jorge and Salma insist in their marriage plots, dont they have a reputation to keep? Cousin weddings are kind of screwed in the head for me and if Veronica got officially declared as a Prado Castelo it makes things worse. Just imagine seeing the exciting news in the newspapers: Veronica Prado Castelo became Veronica Prado Castelo like WTH. I am aware that Ver & Emiliano dont share the same blood but in order to lessen the scandal they would have to reveal the truth of Ver's origins which would bring up even MORE Scandal.
I am not convinced by the thought of Pablo & Ana Perla , I'm getting the feeling that we are being shoveled down with this plot. I will try my best to accept them but their crappy love song wouldnt help much.Why dont they reuse some songs from previous telenovelas instead of making new crappy ones.
I am getting angsted by Emi's ranting, how long will it take till he turns into an intelligent man made for cold buisness? Isnt that what the family expects from him?

Thinking about doctors, are either Botel or "Dr. Fernandez" real doctors? They don't behave like they are. And, in the case of Botel, he doesn't look like you would expect of a physician. Perhaps we will be getting more details about their backstory in future episodes.
Gobluefan,
I'm convinced that both are physicians. Lack of ethics or otherwise bad behavior seems to be pretty much the norm for male TN physicians, so their moral lapses are not reliably indicative of lack of credentials. Manuel pointed out to grandpa that Botel had healed or at least treated("ha curado") a good many citizens of the town plus we've seen him in what appears to be an authentic medical office. We've also seen Virginia privately refer to Dr. Fernandez as "that bastard doctor".

Ya Steve she (Vbad) thought bubbled something to the effect that she was anticipating the day she would be rich and not have to put up with that bastard Doctor. So it is just a you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours with Vbad and the (undercover) Doctor.
I am really surprised that Vbad and anyone can have a romp in the bed with the door not locked and not get caught, as it appears to be the norm in the PC Casa to walk into anyone's room unannounced. Sneak-around sex IS a lot of fun.
It will be fun to watch and see just how much HAVOC this one lying little ho can create with what resources she has available. She dam sure did Not want to see the heart Dr. Salma had chosen, as he/she would have given her a clean medical bill of health. Virginia Peralta :-)

@Kirby - if you rewatch that "house call" scene, you will see that when Dr. Feelgood closes the door the camera zeros in on his hand and he does lock the door.
Virginia Peralta obviously fits her too!
If Veronica is pregnant, let's hope Virginia doesn't cause her to lose her baby!

Mauricio, thanks for such an excellent recap. I shouldn't be surprised that V snake doesn't have an actual heart problem. I'm sure she does have a massive headache, however, from trying to keep all her lying stories straight. Sounds like she's been developing her "talents" from an early age.
Vero is not doing herself any favors here. I feel like the writers are just throwing a bunch of stuff up on the wall to see what sticks, and we're left with a mess to figure out.
I'm not sure Martin really knows what he's up to, either. His obsession with vengeance keeps popping up, hiding anything else in his life. Guess I'll hold on until they get to the jungle and try to break each other down.
The whole abuelo, Ana Perla, Manuel story line isn't catching my attention, even with Pablo thrown into the mix. The bad guys are one dimensional and stupid. Pablo could find more jungle mystique with Nanci than Ana Perla.

Speaking of Nanciaya or whatever her name: Is she retarded or just never mastered the Queen's Spanish? She speaks in third person or something. Thanks

Mauricio,, very detailed work! excellent!.
I am so angry now (after La Sombra's horror!) with this new tn. Why has everybody condemned Veronica without any trial? Why didn't they call her and accuse her and hear her defend herself in front of all of them? Oh, those lame excuses! And Tracy H. am with you there, Do we really have to endure 100 episodes+ of the antagonists getting away with all these evilness before we see the light in the tunnel/ Really. And I thought that Virginia's evilness ended in Robo. Anne

Excellent recap Mauricio!
I am not currently watching this but you guys are making me want to watch! Darn! I might have to give up one of my other TN's to squeeze this one in. We'll see. Either way I will continue to read the recaps and comments. Great work so far to the recapping team.
Hasta pronto...

Thanks Mauricio, very much for taking the time to recap this - you do a great job with all of the detail in the conversations and I really do appreciate that:)
ITA with La Paloma's last paragraph about the abuelo, Manuel etc. down in the jungle. Not terribly interesting and very frustrating switching back and forth from the Prado Castelo home to the group in Mina Escondida. I mean the former is the central story so why keep diverting to the one of questionable interest, at least to me. Hopefully, this strategy will abate soon. Does it have something to do with contemporary lack of focus? The main story is interesting and I am very interested in following it, particularly since I've never seen any of the previous interpretations...why can't they stick with that??
Oh well, it's all pretend anyway!! Thank goodness!

Thank you Mauricio for your wonderful recap. It was my weekend treat.
I'm glad to see Virginia has some spunk and is not just whiny and petulant. It was a surprise that she wants to oust Salma. I'm not quite sure how that would work even if she did marry Emi.
Now that Martín thinks he knows that Demetrio and Veronica were lovers, isn't it kind of icky to bed your brother's girlfriend?
And speaking of icky, Abuelo's obsession with Ana Perla's chastity is waaaay beyond overprotective.
Ana Perla's aunt lucked out when she married Joaquín. He was my hero this episode.
Martín certainly is an accomplished eavesdropper.
Adriana Noel, MartÍn's hotness has cut him some slack. We'll see how far it can go.
Gobluefan, Onix is almost certainly a border collie or border collie mix. It follows he's from the most normal family in the show so far.
So far, I'm enjoying the Pablo-Ana Perla interaction. They're very cute.
I really, really hate Manuel.
CountxAlacran, Pablo and Ana-Perla's "new crappy song", as mentioned previously, should really be considered an "old crappy song". The song, though simpleminded, is OK with me though I don't like this singer.
Barbara

Hi All,
I don't watch LSDP, but I couldn't help but read Lila's Friday recap and the Weekend Discussion. How absolutely disgusting. I could never stomach watching that novela.
All I can say is, please don't quit on this novela prematurely and cut Martin some slack. Give his story with Veronica a chance to unfold. I think you will be pleasantly surprised how tame but interesting their storyline is, especially compared to the disgusting rape/incest, etc., storylines I'm reading about in the recaps of LSDP and QTPD, another novela I refuse to watch.

Thanks for the great recap. I know that the weekend is over but if it makes a difference, I red the recap yesterday---It's been busy for me and I didn't have time to recap. I'll make it short.
This is only episode #10 and I've enough of Virginia already. I can't stand that little viper.
Dr. Carlos---Do you do house calls? No matter, just take her away or keep her occupied and out of our hair. I'm sure that you love her by now or at least are interested. Just take her away please!

I suppose the reason we must be dragged trough the mining town muck is to set up the Mag abandoned daughter/Vero abandoned story.
I could care less what happened in Vero's distant past. Vero is from a very affluent family with loads of resources. If she has been an adult for 8 to 10 years and has not bothered to find/ investigate her Mom, then I share her total lack of concern, especially in light of the fact that her parentage is a sore subject which seems to be thrown in her face daily.

Question of the Day: What are Virginia's parents doing at the moment?
Just dont tell me they're turning in their graves cause that's doing something too!
Just dont tell me they're turning in their graves cause that's doing something too!
ITA Barbara about Gramps obsession with Ana Perla's chastity. That was my thought exactly, locking her in her room? Almost brainwashing the poor girl. What are you doing you nasty looking old perv? Saving her for yourself or her brother?
ANON 12:00 AM- some things are done for effect. to invite her in and listen at all the accusations and then watch her defend herself, that wouldn't have been good storytelling, they have to keep us coming back for more so they do this and then they just drag it on and on and on, and we keep seeing the antagonist you know getting their way and it gets kinda depressing at times but eventually the good guys win, but after a lot of damage has been done. And sometimes this makes the good guys look kind of stupid cuz you're thinking "what were they thinking when they made this move or that move"? this stuff makes you yell at the TV.

Virginia really showed her claws on Friday's episode. I bet she will get worse and worse as the story unfolds.

Joaquin was my hero in this episode as well. Too bad Jorge didn't have enough sense as he did.

Vero: If you are marrying some guy and he has not told you he loves you 47 times THAT DAY, the wedding should be off.
