Lo Imperdonable #31 Mon 6/29/15 When you're in love, Green Hell feels like Paradise - or - The Protagonists Finally Catch a Break.
- • In the cantina, Marty rails about how Crescencio wants to control his granddaughters' lives. Botel thinks Blanquita will be okay because she has a father to look after her; but the Old Goat is Ana Perla's legal guardian and the girl has a lot of respect for him (le tiene demasiado ley a su abuelo).
- • Meanwhile, Vero warns Ana Perla not to make her happiness dependent on anyone else. She tells her to live in the present and enjoy what she has. "You're just like Magdalena," Ana Perla remarks.

"Oh man. She's gonna be sooooooooooo mad when she finds out"
"his conflict management strategy is heavily weighted towards avoidance, after all"
"A forced marriage would be an injustice, continues the newest feminist and human rights advocate on the block with all the fervor of the recent convert"
"Free as a Bird. In a cage"
I cringed when Veronica said "she has rescued the tender, loving man who was hidden within the beast" What kind of message is this to be perpetuated as romance?
Golly, with all you guys that have been saying Magdalena needs to dry up, it's old.
What is it with all the attention fixed on Ana Perla? I think it more about poking a finger in the eye of Crescencio.
The person with reason to mope, Julio, doesn't.
I was confused in the Pablo/Marianna exchange. Am I right in thinking that they left with Pablo thinking they broke up and Marianna thinking they were on break and not broke. So can Pablo go back and feel free with Ana Perla and the Old Goat? I mean I know that Marianna will cause problems, but I'm more interested in understanding whether or not PABLO did the right thing. I kind of think he did?
Tofie re Julio, YES! Love him. Ana Perla-- open your eyes! Thought Vero was going to give her a clue, but not yet.
Rebecca
tofie, Julio may not mope but he sure has that silent manly glare thing going. :)
I think it's more about poking a finger in the eye of Crescencio.
Let's all take a moment to reflect on that one. hee hee.
Rebecca,
I think it was Pablo's intention to break up with Mariana. As far as he's concerned, he has done so and he's a free man.
It was Mariana's intention to play along with Pablo (she has him hooked and now she's letting out the line and giving him some play, but when the time comes, she plans to reel him back in.)
Pablo's big mistake/act of cowardice was this: Mariana asked him quite pointedly if he was seeing someone else. If he had admitted that he was, things would have played out very differently. (For one thing, there wouldn't be an upcoming MOMA exhibit!) As long as Mariana believes she has no rivals, she will continue to attribute Pablo's rejection to his sensitive soul, to the pressures on him, to his fear of a hasty marriage... to anything but his indifference to her.
Or that's how I interpret the thing. :)
"How nice. Little Ginny is learning her way around deadly weapons."
My thoughts exactly. This can't be good... Thanks for the explanation of what "diana" meant - I didn't get what she was talking about. I thought perhaps she had named the target practice person on the paper "Diana".
Ana Perla gasps. The little bunch of yellow blossoms falls to the ground.
Poor Ana Perla. Like the flowers, Ana Perla's whole world has crumbled. I hope Martin sticks to his word and does something to intervene and stop this arranged marriage madness.
I agree with your interpretation of the Pablo and Mariana scene, NovelaMaven. Pablo should have been more clear with Mariana and told her that there was someone else in his life. Instead, he chose not to and now Mariana still thinks she has some hope with him. While he thinks they have broken up. It will be interesting to see what will happen on that NY trip.
A message to Magdalena: listen to Nanciyaga - she knows what she's talking about. And a message to Botel: SHUT UP (there were at least two times in this episode when I wanted to yell SHUT UP BOTEL at the TV screen).
As tofie says, you just "know something idiotic is coming out of [Botel's] mouth when it begins to move." I still don't know what Botel's game is though and what, if any, secrets he is concealing about Demetrio's death and whether he shares responsibility for Veronica's disappearance.
Yes, poor Ana Perla. I don't mind her quiet tears, but her bawling drives me up a wall. (Flat-out crying must be a really difficult skill for an actor.)
Carlos
The advice is as terrible as the fake club background. That was a great line.
Botel says---I know that a drunken bastard almost killed Martin. Ouch! That was a strong statement.
My granddaughters will do what I say. Ouch! That doesn't sound good either. Old Goat!
Oh! Oh! Emi will be on his way soon and V-snake taking target practice FOR SURE can't be good.
NovelaMaven---I do love the recaps and am very grateful for them. I wasn't going to say anymore after Blog Mom's directive but now we have an anonymous comment that ends with must see tv which is often the way that I end my comments. However, I use
the name gringo and (there is actually a story behind that name) not anonymous. Anyway I thought that I chose my words carefully in my weekend comment and said nothing hurtful or derogatory. I just expressed my opinion that I thought the whole issue that had come up was ridiculous. Maybe Blog Mom didn't agree. I had already put the weekend comments behind me and was ready to move on and then the anonymous must see tv comment today. So I am just saying that is in not the gringo's post at 12:16PM
the gringo
I agree about Ana Perla's bawling. I also don't care about the way she bats her eyes in some scenes. Very annoying.
@Mauricio - I believe Emi referring to Ginny as a "Diana" is in reference to Roman mythology, where Diana is the "goddess of the Hunt" (but also of the moon and childbirth) - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diana_%28mythology%29
Actually, I don't mind the treacle all that much. In any event, you aren't likely to be burdened with it on your return, since word on the street (and by that, I mean in my own head) is that it ain't gonna last.
You expelled? ¡Jamás de los jamases! ¡Hasta pronto, amigo!
Dear gringo,
I appreciate your generous comment. And don't worry – we know and recognize the REAL gringo when we see him around here!
LatinaInMd,
You are too kind!
Maybe Emi was making a pun on diana/Diana? http://www.wordreference.com/es/en/translation.asp?spen=diana
I'll try to go back later and replay the lines to see if the context makes the meaning clear.
It was actually Virginia who said the word "Diana" not Emi. She told Emi she wanted to show him her "Diana" and Emi was like "What Diana?". That was why I thought she had named her little target practice person "Diana". You'd think she'd name it Veronica.
gringo - We all know it wasn't you who made the Anon comment.
Not a spoiler, just my thoughts (haven't watched ahead nor seen previous versions, but will understand if this is deleted) - I wonder if Pablo will go back to Mina Escondida and Mariana will follow him and act as if they're still engaged? She'll force a kiss on him which, of course, Ana Perla will see - after which she'll run home crying and agree to marry Cresencio's choice for her!

I FEEL YOUR PAIN- You go nancy girl, you and those spirits got it going on.
Botel need to go take a powder. He want even give an inch, not even that there might be the slightest possibility that this child might still be alive. He knows how nasty this man (her ex) was. He would do anything to hurt magda, he hated her that much. maybe he's (botel) being that way to keep her from a world of hurt because after all we viewers know that she is alive and he's playing a character that didn't know anything. So its good for effect. Its effecting me. He 's pissing me off. Stand your ground nancy girl, don't back down. That bond that magda and ronny
Is feeling it'll get stronger, and she gonna need moma cause marty 's gonna go dr. jekel n mr. Hide again, and moma can open up a can of whipass on him.
Pablo, I feel your pain, stupid he got himself into that mess.
I wont feel to sorry for ana perla if the guy gramps sets her up with is julio.
of course it sounds like he'd have to go through Martin to set her up with anybody cuz he(martin) look like he would go to war protect those little girls from crazy gramps.
Nina, glad you liked the recap. I agree that Vero is going to need her mama sooner or later. (Well, don't we all?)
Cynderella, I'm not sure which rule you think you are breaking. Is there one against making NovelaMaven giggle?
Mauricio,
That was why I thought she had named her little target practice person "Diana". You'd think she'd name it Veronica.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I would like to volunteer to teach Julio how to read since I have taught many Julios how to read..and write..and speak..and understand.
Carlos, I hope that you and lovely Linda are having a lovely time. I would appreciate knowing if your trip was enjoyable because I have been looking for an adventure. I met a couple at your favorite B &B at the shore who take a lot of train trips, but a trip down the Mississippi might be fun.
susanlynn, you are just so... so... GENEROUS to make an offer like that. (Be prepared to elbow the crowds away though) :-)
And what will you name YOUR target person?
Hi La Paloma, So glad you enjoyed the recap. I bet Magda (like susanlynn) would be a terrific teacher.
I thought the scene with the blender was cute. I'm happy that Vero is getting some happy time with her man.
I did laugh when slut shaming, wife-punisher Martin, and doormat Vero, suddenly both became feminists-- all about a woman standing her ground and choosing her own destiny. Uh huh.
