Que Te Perdone Dios #52: Discussion Page
1. Motor hits up the bars after getting rejected (reminds me of poor Germán in LM)
2. Lucio returns and threatens Benito after telling him Barragan questioned him about Fausto's accident.
3. Amanda, Vicenta, and Constanza chat about the happenings at the hacienda. Amanda and Vicenta remind a confused Constanza that Renata has secrets of her own.
4. Dianaconda slithers in Diego's direction to turn him to the dark side by making a deal that he needs to lie
to Mateo about what he really saw that time at La Enramada when Di and Fausto were getting it on so that Diego can woo Abii without any interference from Mateo. And so that Mateo will regret divorcing Diana.
5. Diego and Mateo talk. Diego almost regrets lying
and is about to tell Mateo the truth when Helena arrives and takes Mateo away so that he can have a civil conversation with Diana.
6. Diana "insists" Helena not make Mateo talk to her if he doesn't want to. Helena gives her support to Diana. Helena lectures Mateo about taking responsibility for "his" child. Helena reveals to Mateo that his father was
a jerk (that's at least partly the truth).
7. Helena reveal[s] a partial truth to Mateo about his dad, that he was not a good guy. She neglected to mention the rather glaring detail that Fausto is his dad. But she poured the guilt thick onto Mateo, to not leave his wife and child the way his own father did. Helena was distraught, saying how that man ruined her life, destroyed her heart.
8. Diego and Mateo continue their conversation. Diego lies and says the woman he saw with Fausto was Mia. Mateo remembers the "fake" kiss. Mateo wonders why Abi said it was Diana.
9. Julio and Eduviges declare their "love" each other. Julio wants to keep their relationship a secret from Efi. Julio plans his "business deal" with the sisters.

La Sombra del Pasado #32 - Wed 4/1 - In which the fools don't even recognize their own foolishness
Aldonza has no intention of going to the engagement party, which Adelina is happy about. As she is happy to see the pretty, pretty flowers…and the sweet card, "None of these flowers is as beautiful as you, but they try." Are they from Renato, or aren't they? What about Cristobal? Aldonza doesn't think so, since he was there and since he asked who sent them, and since he's on the verge of getting married. And really, Aldonza really doesn't want to talk boys…she'd rather clean house. Screw that! I say keep talking about boys if those are the only options!

Amores con trampa #3 1 Apr 2015 Animal House Party!! poor Petunia!!
Santiago tries to convince Facundo to invest in the builder company. Santiago’s company builds condo buildings.
Isa meets Margarito… then Porfirio almost hand-feeds her a boiled egg… gets flirty with her. Perpetua nags him.
Perpetua tells Isa that in their hometown they called him ‘el mil amores’ and ‘el todas mias’ (all women are mine)
They give isa some warm drink… jumirichi (I think it had a worm in the glass because she had something in her mouth when she spit on Perpetua.
Isa falls in the pool, Facundo jumps after her.
Lo Nuevo:
Santiago feels embarrassed. Isa gets a bit of a wardrobe malfunction… she runs back to her house with a hand on butt.
Back in their bedroom, Isa nags at Santiago for forcing her to go there with him. Why are you so interested in being friends with them?... She keeps whining and demanding he tell her what is going on. Insists… insists… you can’t handle the truth!!! You really want the truth?? Here it goes… the company is totally bankrupt. We are going to loose everything. The house, the company.. everything!! … that is why I need to get close to those rancheros. The govt paid them $10 Mill for their lands. If we can convince them to invest in our business, we can survive. He has tried all other avenues. No one will lend him a peso. ‘either the corn planting farmers… or the streets.’ Isa is in disbelief. Why me!??
As soon as we have their money they will have to leave penniless… He promises Isa that it will be as he says. He cuddles her in his arms.
Facundo gets a bit tlc from his wife and family. Maria comments that the neighbors are a bit misbehaved. Facundo mentions that the husband is not as strict/firm as he should be. Facundo will go to his business tomorrow and will talk with him. Facundo announces to his family that he is about to become an entrepreneur. They all congratulate him.
At Santiago’s office, Santiago is showing Facundo some videos. Serves him a whole lot of BS of visualizing Facundo and Maria playing tennis, on the Jacuzzi, with the family and the farm animals all around them… and will do good for the community… success!!! Santiago presents Esteban to Facundo. Facundo squeezes Esteban’s hand. Esteban plays his part telling Santiago in front of Facundo that someone just bought a condo from them cash. Santiago milks the lie for all its worth. Facundo asks how much should I invest. Santiago says not much… just some… 50 Million pesos (ballpark is about half of what Facundo has). Facundo impactado at the amount.

La Sombra del Pasado #31, 03/31/2015
Severiano (Sev) saves Abelardo (Lardo) from the thugs that were beating him up. They jump off of him as soon as Sev says boo. Sev tells Lardo to get in the car and shushes the gang leader when he tries to explain that they were just playing with him.
Aldonza (Aldie) and Renato (Ren) are strolling through the streets. Aldonza has just shared her secret recipe for frying monsters in hell aka her big plans, but we were not privy to it. Whatever it is, Renato seems to think it’s a good idea, but wants to study the contract and local laws to make sure they can do it legally. He recognizes that Sev’s very powerful so they can’t jump into this willy nilly. Aldonza says she’s willing to put her life on the line for this. Renato says he wouldn’t recommend that as her lawyer…but as a man, he’ll walk into Hell with her if she asks. She smiles, thanks him and says that’s just what she needed to hear. In return he thanks her for her company. Um…seriously? I already feel for his poor, broken heart.

Amores con Trampa #2 31 Nar 2015 ... opposites attract... times four? Isa smells animals stinch, Santiago smells money!!
Isabel hysterical, not knowing what language the ‘rancheros’ speak. Rocio finds it amusing that the neighbors can drive her aunt that crazy. ‘neta?? que oso!’ Felipe actually glad they HAVE neighbors, no?... Isabel bans them from coming close to any of the neighbors.
Of course the dare makes it even more fun for Rocio… so she ends up presenting herself to Beto (who is obviously smitten with her) and his horse ‘El Pinto’, Beto offers her a ride, she gladly hops on (must not be that easy with the tight black leather pants). Isa comes out of her house and faints at seeing them.
Lo Nuevo:
Rocio leads the route. They are seen by the neighbors, who start gossiping since Rocio is Isabel’s niece.
Rocio and Beto have arrived at someone’s house. A young guy who is dressed ready for the beach is amused at seeing Rocio’s new neighbor, stating Beto is ‘very rural’.
Santiago gets home and starts shrieking at the sight of the horses. He finds Isabel fainted and gets scared. ‘Puchis, are you ok??’ She wakes up, asks if she is dead, she WANTS to be dead!! … They are in disgrace, it is the 7 plagues of the Apocalypsis!! ..
Rocio kisses Diego (who we find out later is her bf, at least that’s what she says) in front of Beto who is not enjoying. Rocio goes in Diego’s house after he invited her to his pool. Beto is not amused, so much not that he calls her ‘Loca’… (but he can't take the credit, Diego called her 'loca' when he came out the door)
Santiago (with wife) comes over to meets Facundo (with wife)… Santiago says they have a situation that concerns him. Isabel says ‘your son kidnapped our daughter!’ Maria and Facundo are surprised but don’t have much time to react, here comes Beto riding back (alone!). Beto says he dropped their daughter with her bf… Ok crisis over. Facundo moves on to the next item on the agenda… Let’s get along and spend some time together!! He tells Santiago that the government bought their lands saying they were going to build a major highway and an oil refinery in there. Facundo says they bought the house ‘cash’. Isa is about to have a stroke. Santiago is quick to recover and puts his hand on Facundo’s shoulder ‘welcome!’.

Mi Corazon es Tuyo #177, Grand Fin Part 2: A Rancid Ransom And A Happily (For Some) Ever After
Diego meets his match when nearly being run over by a beautiful motorcycling babe reporter who is there to cover this (totally unbelievable) stadium-sized baptismal “show” for the twin daughters Ana just had as the “event of the year.” Babe on a Bike apologizes for nearly creaming Diego a second time and, it is love at first bike as they share a painfully prolonged passionate lip-locking meet ‘n greet which is equally as unbelievable. But hey, it’s the fin and we are just happy to get this show on the long awaited road to …anywhere!
Meanwhile, Hissabela has changed her “look” and her disguise to Ice-Cream Vendor in a peppermint striped pant-suit worthy of a 1960’s magazine spread. No doubt she is still trying to poison all possible pipsqueaks populating the huge in-your-dreams kiddie guest list.

We arrive where just where we left off. Sophia is begging Paco to assure her that Octavio was a good man. In order to save Sophia's feelings, Paco suggests that maybe Coria could have stolen the recipes on his own. Paco doesn't know if Octavio was aware of the stolen recipes. Chava butts in and says that there is no way that Araceli will prevail. Paco says that Araceli can win because he gave her power of attorney over everything he has including his intellectual property. Chava is shocked. After Chava dumped Araceli, she got all bummed out and looked sadder than usual. Paco gave her the POA as a birthday gift. Sophia says that Ripoll is screwed if Araceli prevails. Ripoll is broke an the lawsuit will destroy them. Paco promises to take care of it. He's going to revoke the Power of Attorney.

Gran Estreno de Amores con trampa- lunes el 30 de marzo 8/7C
Disclaimer: Most likely there won't be any recaps for this TN, but I really hated the thought of Caray not doing anything for the first week of a prime-time novela. Below is the sinopsis and a few character descriptions. If you would like to have at least a discussion post for the first week, please leave a comment. If the response is underwhelming, then we can forgo even a discussion.
Personal note: Ernesto Laguardia has stated in an interview that he is happy to be a part of a production that carries a message of family unity and responsible pet adoption/ownership. On the ACT site of Televisa viewers are encouraged to share pictures of their pets. I just think this is cool.
Producer: Emilio Larrosa (I admit I know nothing about him except that he produced Hasta que el dinero nos separe.)
Source material: Somos los carmona (Produced by Televisión Nacional de Chile)
Sinopsis
Translated (sometimes loosely) from the Televisa website.
The Carmona family lives a peaceful and simple life in the country in a small pueblo located in the interior of the Mexican Republic. The family owns important mineral mines in the region. They are forced to move to the city after the government buys their extensive property for a huge sum.

Let’s get right to it! Adelina is at Humberto’s office to complete the paperwork and get the keys for the Alcocer house. Adelina has asked Humberto a direct question: “Was that baby (girl) born dead? Yes or no?” Humberto answers with a question, “Why are you asking? You were there.” Adelina gets tough for a minute, refreshing his memory that he and Sev took the baby from the room, and then she pleads. Humberto looks at her evenly and swears by his daughter that “. . . this baby (girl) does not exist.” Adelina leaves, defeated and a lie lives all over Humberto’s face.

La Sombra del Pasado #28 3/26/15
Right to the new
Severiano(Sev) does an admirable job not letting on that he knows Simoneta Saavedra. According to her, she's here for business. Sev invites her to his study. When there, she tells him that she missed him soooo much! She swears she didn't let Candela(Cande) know anything! She's staying at a local hotel. She'll go back there and wait for him. (Seriously, what is it about Sev that has women clinging to him and going crazy?) As Simoneta leaves, Dominga sees her and you can tell there is recognition.
Pru and Humberto(Hum) argue about Aldonza. He's flattered that she would think a girl like Aldonza would go for him. Pru informs him that she put Aldonza in her place anyway and the news about The Stoning comes out. Pru also accuses him of keeping El Satunario at Aldonza's request and says that also explains why he was so willing to get a divorce. Hum gets angry and decides he's not going to share his bedroom with Pru anymore. He goes to stay with Emmanuel.

Que te Perdone Dios Capitulo 47 -Nobody can handle the truth! -Full Recap
New: Dr. Pat tells Di that he has advised Mat to wait to get divorced, but Diana says no, bring it on. His punishment for divorcing me will be to lose his child. Dr. Pat has to swear not to say anything. If there are Mexican HIPAA laws, then it’d be illegal to. But neither priests nor police officers are very discreet, so we’ll see about the good doctor. After he leaves, Diana stops crying and gets her game face back on.
Abi is loitering outside the Hacienda and Diego shows up. There’s a creepy scene of uncle telling niece how much he loves her, to give him a chance, he loves enough for both of them. In other words Diego’s usual spiel.

Que Te Perdone Dios #46: Di's Elastic Tie That Binds
- Fausto's got more lives than Morris the Cat! He survived practiccally without a scratch, Com. Barragan smells something rotten. He does some checking with Meliton who refuses to tell him anything useful. He tries questioning Feisty, but meets another brick wall.
- Diego and his Abue are at logger heads over his wanting to know who his daddy was --and if his mother is still alive (?) Vee tells Diego the secret about the creep who diddled his mama for grins is gone and best forgotten. His identity will go with her to her grave. As for his ma, she hasn't heard from her in years(?) [Had a hard time making out the conversation here, especially since there were no CC's.]
- Mateo tells Diana she's ready to go home--alone. (Hey, Mia's house is empty I hear.) No way he's letting her guilt him over the D.I.V.O.R.C.E. (Too bad about the scars those scissors made. Get a shrink.) He's off to see his lawyer ASAP.
- Macaria visits her later in the day and offers to become her ally in hanging onto Mat cuz Fausto's HER man.
- Padre T tries convincing Renata that Fausto is a changed man. Why, he swore before Christ's image on the altar!! Ren says she's the one who's lived with the guy for 30 years, with all due respect, Padre. He was blowing smoke. They agree to disagree and she'll due some penance in the meantime for disagreeing with Dios's faithful messenger.
- Max learns why Toni told such a tall tale about him and Motor being each other's love toy and tells him to clear things up with his mom cuz he doesn't want that garbage being spread about him, especially in front of Dr. Mat and double especially with Abigail! He's got a thing for her!
- The ex-mayor finds one of his hit men hanging from a tree limb with a warning sign pinned to his chest. "You're next!" in so many words. Later on Lucio only half admits to the deed with Max.
- Max takes Lucio to his megamanse in the D. F. and introduces him to "Ximena" who is really Crazy Twin. CT freeks and makes a panicked call to Xi, who tells her to chill.
- Motor confesses to Efi and Edi's maid (Teo's BFF) that he's in love with Edi? Efi? (Glasses Sis) and needs her help to see her. She agrees and gets the message to her that night before dinner.
- Late that afternoon, Dr. Pat has another visit with Di and tells her one of the studies came back late. It now turns out that she is PREGGERS!!!!! To quote the guard at the gate to the Emerald City as he lets Dorothy and pals enter, "Well, that's a horse of a different color! Come in!! Come in!!"

Mi corazon es tuyo #175 25 Mar 2015... The church wedding! with more guests than expected... and several amusing extras
Jennifer rants at Johnny for borrowing money from some questionable guy to offer it to David for Aura. Johnny says don’t worry about that, only think you will have Aura in your arms today. ‘you haven’t learned anything’.
Diego, Nico and Fernando start to worry about Ana’s tardiness.
Hissa meets up with Arq and the limo at the top of a hillside. Hissa is celebrating/laughing ‘I want Ana to realize I AM the one that won in the end!’
Lo Nuevo:
Suddenly some heavy woman comes out of the limo. Hissa’s face is priceless… (wrong bride!!!)
Meanwhile at church Ana gets out of the limo. Fernando gets excited at seeing her from far away. He turns around and says ‘I can’t see her!’ and asks Nico how she looks. Bellisima!!
Hissa rants at Arq and Jairo (the driver) that they brought a different Ana to them. The wrong Ana asks them to bring her to the church, her bf is waiting for her. Hissa starts arguing with her. Ana 2 says ‘I prefer to be fat than to be crazy like you!!’
Hissa, Jairo and Arq get in the limo and leave the Ana 2 bride alone in the hillside!
At the church, Luz and Mau are carrying the train… Nico comments to Ana ‘you don’t know how long I have been waiting for this moment. ‘ ‘no more than I!’ is her answer.
A good opera singer is singing Ave Maria while Fernando is sighing as Ana and Nico approach. Ana blows kisses to the kids, the girlfriends, etc everyone she knows…
As Ana and Nico arrive to the altar, Ana makes a pose for Fernando with her hand on her hip. Fernando continues swooning at her. Nico hands Ana over to Fernando ‘Fernando, I give you Ana, whom I love as a daughter.’ Ana and Soledad have their moment too and Soledad gives her her blessing… Fernando watches very happily.
As Ana approaches Fernando, she whispers that he is ‘guapo’. He is speechless.
As the priest starts with the signal of the cross… Hissa is ready outside with a bazooka on her shoulder, talks to camera.
Fernando and Ana say their vows ‘… I, XXX, promise to love you, YYY, and be faithful to you until death do us part’.
Fernando and Ana exchange rings… Hissa is ready to shoot…
Time for the arras (symbolic coins).
Hissa shoots the bazooka but it malfunctions. She then starts ranting insults for Arq and points the bazooka up.
Hissa tries the trigger again and this time the bazooka shoots straight up. The explosion sound makes Johnny and Diego run out to the door as Arq is dragging Hissa away. Johnny asks Diego if he knows what that was. Diego says he has been in war zone… he knows that was the sound of a bazooka shooting. They even smell powder.
As the priest continues asking Ana and Fernando if they came willingly, etc… we see a barefoot woman in aura approaching them from behind. Both Ana and Fernando sense a presence so they turn around. It is Fanny Sr. she nods ‘yes’ to both Fernando and Ana… Fernando and Ana then ask each other if they felt/saw what they did. They agree that it felt like Fanny Sr came to give them her approval/blessing, it did not feel threatening at all. Fernando agrees and caresses her face.

La Sombra del Pasado #27 3/25/15 Things Get a Little Rocky
I will jump right in at the new stuff.
Cristobal (Cris) isn't convinced that Aldonza is the home-wrecker Valeria (Val) is making her out to be. And Val is going to have to forgive him, but he didn't come to fight about Aldonza and her questionable morals. He excuses himself and leaves.
Humberto (Hum) makes the rounds at local banks. At Banco de Progreso he is informed that his loan application was turned down because of his credit history. Humberto is confused. He doesn't owe anything that he isn't paying in due time and proper form (en tiempo y forma. With mad props to Wordreference forums.) He asks if Severiano (Sev) had anything to do with the rejection and the banker looks like he just pooped his pants a little. Poopy Banker doesn't know what Hum is talking about.

Mi corazon es tuyo #174 a lot of silly filler stuff... with a few cute moments... Hissabella is desperate, playing all her cards at once, and it seems she has 'the force' working AGAINST her
Lo Nuevo:
At office, Fernando is with Torres. He gets a phone call and can’t hide his excitement. He has a date for the church wedding. 28 Feb. (boy! They are rushing in MCET time!! I recall they reconciled Feb 11th!!)
Jennifer tells Ana she will try to focus on work to not think too much about what is happening with Aura.
At David’s place, Mónica, David’s wife, asks him why he brought her. He wants Jennifer and Johnny to suffer a while. He says the more they suffer the more they will pay to get Aura back.
Isabela drives to the location of ‘Las Merceditas’ and intends to run Ana over with a car to make her loose her baby. But the car starts to malfunction as Isabela tries to slam on the gas to run Ana over.
Fernando calls Ana on the cell phone to tell her they have a date for the church wedding AND he has the priest too (Padre Samuel). He even gets excited and talks like Ana ‘Si! Si! Si!’ Ana is excited.
Jumping beside the disabled car, Isa is having a tantrum because this attempt to hurt Ana ALSO failed. Some guy comes by and tells her she didn’t have antifreeze so the car motor stalled. Isa continues her tantrum swearing she hates the Lascurains and las nacas.
Back at the Manse, Fernando and Ana announce to the family, staff, Siete and dates of the older kids that there will be a church wedding soon. Fernando is using a bit strange language so it gets a bit silly. The kids get confused and suggest the new wedding is for Soledad and Nico. Soledad says ‘that doesn’t sound too bad’ (which gets a ‘say what?’ look and then a giggle from Fernando and Ana).(hey, with all the weird stuff we've seen in this novela, that is actually not THAT out of the blue... at least Nico won't have to worry about her surviving him by THAT much or wanting him to get BUSY with her ) Fernando clears up ‘no, its OUR church wedding’.

Quiero Amarte (Week 27-Mar 23) They Shouldn't Have Said "IT" Out Loud
Ay, Amaya, you shouldn't have said "IT" out loud. Not that you didn't feel it and Max didn't suspect it anyway, but the hospital hallway just wasn't the right place to tell him you still loved him (can't get him alone?--try the garden again).
Ay, Lucrecia, you shouldn't have said "IT" out loud. Not that it will stop Mauro or Eloisa from acting on their feelings, but telling Eloisa Mauro will never be hers since he belongs to you, divorce or not, will only embolden Eloisa (go girl).
Ay, Ivan, you shouldn't have said "IT" out loud. Not that Cecy doesn't know you have a beautiful, dark-haired wife you are crazy in love with, but asking her (well, ok, in all innocence), if Cecy knows a dark-haired beauty that is occupying your dreams was not a savvy thing to do (nor safe).
Ay, Doctor Guapo, you shouldn't have said "IT" out loud. Not that the Patio Peeps didn't see the resemblance immediately, but when you said you were from Guatemala, but born right in Chiapas, Mauro, Amaya and Lucrecia are in for a big surprise (we hope).
Ay, Cesar, you shouldn't have said "IT" out loud. Not that you aren't a prick, but do you really think your secretary is going to believe you can't stand having trash in your office is the reason she is to dispose of the bag, toute de suite. (she smells a dead rat).

Chava looks aggravated.
Irma tells bored channel surfing pissy faced Aracely that she just needs nine or ten cats to live with to make her an official old maid. Aracely tells Irma that Irma is just like her but Irma says not for long since she is well on her way getting her "loves" ( Armando and Nandito back". She tells Araceli that Armando received her well and even invited her for breakfast. Aracely does not believe they will get back as a family but Irma says they will be because she is being so understanding and good (even offering to make them more comfy) that Armando will fall for her. Aracely cannot believe Irma has lost her love for "material" things. Of course she hasn't it is just part of her "game". When she gets Armando back, Aracely will see that she was right. Aracely reminds her of her legal situation and Armando's request for custody. Irma just calls her bitter and says she at least she is doing something to get her man back while Aracely is just bawling in the corners while Chava is having a good old time at the beach with that Ripoll blondie.Read more »

Mi Corazon Es Tuyo: Thurs. Mar. 19 Discussion Page

Ana asks Betty to let Fernando know.
Fernando arrives at hospital in a jiffy and Angel tells him and Ana that he was arranging for the OR. Sebastian has appendicitis.
Fanny is surprised talking to Edith and asking her what happened. Edith explains that she was realizing she was running from her problems instead of facing them. Fanny is happy to hear that.

La Sombra del Pasado #23 3/19/15
Directo al grano
Candelaria (Cande) tells Severiano(Sev) to tell Cristobal(Cris) what Aldonza did to him. In Sev's telling, Aldonza is a nutcase who stabbed him simply because he told her to leave Cris and Valeria(Val) alone. Cris doesn't buy it. Cande jumps in and tells him that yes, Aldonza is capable. It's in her blood. She's just like her mother if not worse. Cris wants to know why his father didn't tell him about this yesterday (remember? Cris asked him that what was wrong.) Sev didn't want to unfairly malign Aldonza (note the eyeroll from Cande.) Sev reiterates that Aldonza is mentally unbalanced, but if it will make Cris feel better he'll file a report with the police. Cris doesn't think that's necessary. Like Sev said...Aldonza needs professional help. Not jail. After Cris leaves Sev tells Cande what a stupid stunt she pulled. He walks away and ignores her insistence that they talk.
Adelina is glad Aldonza finally talked to Lola. Aldonza is glad she did too. Adelina is glad to see Aldonza happy again...not sad and wanting vengeance. Aldonza tells Adelina about Emanuel's visit and how Lola got jealous. Adelina thinks Aldonza needs to explain to Lola that Emmanuel is just a dear friend...but Adelina does think Emanuel is super guapo. Oh! Oh! It's practically confirmed that Emanuel is Roberta's lost child!! Aldonza says he's just like a brother to her! Aldonza doesn't want Lola angry at her because of Emmanuel.

Que Te Perdone Dios: Wed. Mar. 18th Discussion Page
Diana watched with raised eyebrow as Mateo and Abi shared short, sweet kisses, the yearning lovers looking solemn and not at all happy. As Mateo mounted his steed and rode away, Diana angrily confronted Abi and a full blown altercation, down and dirty, ensued. As screaming and hair pulling continued, Benito pulled the two apart. Threats were uttered...
The catfight between Abi and Diana involved a miracle--no wardrobe malfunction with Abi's strapless bustier. She must have been using some super two-sided tape to keep it in place.
Tia Mia came to visit Simona and discussed Tono as Julio's son (?). They gave him to Simona to raise, but now that money is short, Mia needs cash from Simona. Simona says she doesn't have it and Mia insists that the worried mayor find a way.
The twins were at work prepping for the takeover of Xi's life by Dani. Dani had large photo flashcards, but couldn't remember some people. Xi said no food for her tired and hungry sister until Dani was picture perfect.
Lucio, perched in a tree like the bird of prey he is, waits. Soon, Fausto comes in sight and Lucio shoots. Fausto falls off his horse and Lucio strides up looking vengefully and crosses himself.
Mateo soon arrives on the scene and comes to Fausto's aid. Not sure if the bullet is embedded in his head or if it simply grazed his temple. In either case, it appears, pitifully, he is still alive.
It just grazed him and Fausto still lives. Fausto tells everyone he fell off a horse, but Mateo knows the truth, and Fausto tells Marcial the truth. Meanwhile, Lucio thinking he's killed him, comes out of hiding and goes to Marcial's house and subtly threatens him. Marcial does not tell him that he just saw a living Fausto who told him he's sure it was Lucio who shot him and he's alive after all.
Mateo has decided that he cares for a desires Diana, but it's Abi he loves and he wants a divorce. He tells Pat, his mama, Renata, and even Abi at the end. But he still hasn't told Diana. He and Abi make VERY obvious googly eyes at each other over dinner, right in front of Diana!
After shooting Fausto, Lucio went to Macaria's and they said that Lucio had just grazed Fausto, per the plan. Lucio wants Fausto living in fear and sleepless nights. Not sure why. Probably because Lucio still loves Fausto. Later when Lucio threatened Marcelino, Lucio blamed him for making Fausto want to kill him. "You took my friend away!"

Mi corazon es tuyo #170 Fanny and Leon reconcile, Alicia and Pablo are planning more trouble, Sebastian is in pain, Hissa gets served and Aura is not as orphan as we thought
Fernando promises Ana he will get DN back very soon. And tells her he fired Hissa. She thanks him with kisses.
Hissa walks with DN in her arms, tells him she really really REALLY likes his uncle Diego. That’s why we named you D. Diego goes in the kitchen and catches Bruno and Manuela in their ‘love dance’. She serves Diego some giant meatballs
Jenny and Johnny talk about Dorofeo and his possible sentence for the crimes (corruption, workshop arsen attempt). He asks her why she arrived with Ana and Bruno, she says he not a good liar.
Ana talks to Fanny on phone. Ana gets Fernando to call someone to find out if the car accident fatality is Leon or not. Ana won’t let Fanny think that Leon is dead.
Lo Nuevo:
Ana has a nightmare about Leon, swings her arm and hits Fernando in… wait for it… wait for it… THE NOSE!!! He is a nice gentleman and when she wakes up he tells her he is having some allergies and that is why he is rubbing nose.
The Lic. calls Fernando back. The dead kid is not Leon. Ana asks Fernando to call Fanny to tell her. He does. She is relieved.
Leon happens to be at a police station (called El Torito- the little bull) where the drunk guys are taken to. They are kept locked in for at least 18 hrs. Leon gets to call Margarita and even though she has Reina and Fanny with her, Leon only has a minute to talk so Margarita has to tell the girls where he is.
Morning. Again, Ana and Fernando’s bed is full with the three young ones and Sebas is sitting on the floor using a tablet and a voice software (you type the words and the tablet speaks them). They all start playing with it.
Ana writes ‘I love you, Mr Lascurain’.
Fernando writes ‘time to change clothes and have breakfast’
One of the twins writes ‘Hola Pareja!’
Sebas takes it back ‘Mi Corazon es tuyo’ (in a low pitch voice).. then ‘no more Don Hielo or Don Piedra’.
Fernando starts protesting and ends up crushed with all the kids and Ana doing ‘bolita’ on top of him. Even Siete is in the pile-up. Fernando lifts a hand and says ‘a hand that begs for help!!’

Guau Award - the two entries.
Que te Perdone Dios...
... in which Fausto, with the aid of his minion Lucio, teaches us how to get away with murder, all without displacing a single moustache hair or getting a single smudge on his fancy cowboy hat. If you work for Fausto, you’ll get the lash in the fields by day, but a shot of free tequila in the cantina by night. Old women, young women, they all love him! And if you don’t, he’ll rape ya! His blind wife (Renata), his on/off lover (Macaria), his ex-lover/mother of his child (Helena), his lover/niece/daughter-in-law (Diana), and his obsession/step-daughter (Abigail our heroine), all know this is Fausto’s world, and the rest of us are just hostages in it. Mateo (our galan) naively thinks his uncle (really, father) Fausto plays by the rules, but he’ll learn soon that Fausto plays by his own rules.
From Anita. Thanks!

Guau award! update
Turned out only TWO of you were willing to submit entries to my challenge. Both will get the free cd downloads.
I guess I didn't make clear what I really wanted, and anyway you were right, 150 words was too short. Here is an example I wrote of an old novela, it's 499 words. This is sort of what I was looking for. I will post the two entries shortly. Thanks.
Entre el Amor y el Odio
A recently deceased rich shoe-factory owner leaves his fortune to his nephew, the hero, and his ward, the heroine, with the stipulation that they, not previously acquainted, marry.
The villain, Marcial, tells the hero this ward (our heroine) had been shagging the decrepit old shoe magnate so after our hero and heroine marry, glumly, in order to secure the loot, the hero invites his evil girlfriend (who's also the villain's girlfriend, her name is Frida) to move into the mansion with him and the new wife.
The wife and the girlfriend both get pregnant. Our hero thinks he's the father of both, but actually his girlfriend's baby is the villains. The babies are born the same night. The baby born to the villains is feeble because his mother smoke and drank while she was pregnant!. The villains switch the babies in the nursery.
The hero thinks he owes it to the evil Frida to marry her, so he divorces his wife. The villains try to kill the feeble baby several times. Then they try to run the hero over, but the heroine nobly gets hit instead and almost dies.
Frida goes to the loony bin. When, later, she gets sprung, she tries to drown both boys in a swimming pool. The feeble one dies. Our devastated heroine tries to drown herself in a river but is rescued by a handsome feral Indian who takes her to a MONASTERY where she glides sadly around in a hempen robe. Then the hero is almost killed by a poisonous snake but the feral Indian saves him too.
Eventually the tide turns. Evil Frida’s skin begins to fall off; she has LEPROSY. Wrapping herself head to toe in orange scarves she sneaks into the hospital, covers her orange scarves with scrubs; poses as a nurse and kills a doctor in order to get morphine.
Meanwhile in the jungle the heroine is almost killed by an escaped-from-the-zoo lion but the feral Indian saves her, dying in the process.
The villain Marcial is almost burned alive in a motel jacuzzi, he survives but looks very gross so skulks around in a black cape and mask. Out for vengeance, he crashes an awards ceremony at the shoe factory. Swinging out of a tree, he sweeps up the remaining kid and takes him to the top of a huge statue. Frida (in her scarves) follows him up there cause she wants to stab him. The whole cast rushes up to the top of the statue in their formalware. The burned guy dangles the kid over the edge but Frida stabs him and our hero snatches the baby and Marcial pitches over the edge, and then Frida pitches over too.
Everybody rushes down to the broken villains on the stones below. A priest comes to give last rites but our villains reject him and each gives a long defiant speech before dying. Then there’s a big party.

La Sombra Del Pasado, Capitulo #21, 03-17-2015
Previously on LSDP: We are forced to relive Aldonza’s living nightmare. Severiano backs her into one corner after another while she squirms away. He finally backs her up against the desk and Aldonza grabs a letter opener behind her back. She warns him that if he takes one more step she can’t be held responsible for what she does next. Unfortunately for Severiano, he’s still living in the past while Aldonza’s determined not to relive it. This time she fights back by stabbing him!
Hoy: Humberto comes out in time to hear Aldonza declare that she promised her mother that she wouldn’t let Sev hurt her again. She flees the scene while Hum holds a raging Sev back. The red cloud in front of Sev’s eyes clears long enough for him to realize that he should deal with the stab wound and he demands loudly, rudely and repeatedly that Hum help him (even though Hum is already escorting him into the office so that he can stitch him up.)

Fanny’s car breaks down.
Lo Nuevo:
Bruno, Jenny and Ana are outside the workshop. Jenny recognizes the car as one of Dorofeo’s. Ana tells Bruno that Jenny had said Johnny sounded nervous.
Diego is working Isa with the aid of some tequila shots. Isa asks if he is there to convince her to return the baby to Fernando. Nope. He has to confess something to her. At Isa’s Diego has been feeding Isa a lot of nonsense about being attracted to her, and since she is attracted to him she at first falls for it… she has a moment of wisdom and accuses Diego of working for Fernando, trying to get her to return the baby or at least with Fernando’s objectives in mind. He has to convince her that he is not there to take the baby. Stay tuned…
Inside poledance studio, Dorofeo has Johnny tied at the tube… opening the gas jug… playing with a metal cigarette lighter and yelling at Johnny that he betrayed him. Johnny rebutes that he and Ana didn’t even know how much they still owed Dorofeo. Dorofeo continues yelling at him while Ana, Jenny and Bruno peek through the door. Bruno volunteers to go in and then figure something out once he is there, but he won’t let the girls go in since he knows Dorofeo has something against them. Dorofeo tells Johnny he will burn down the place and can’t leave witnesses. Johnny begs. Big Mike Picadillo is also tied to another tube. The thugs start spreading the gas… Bruno comes in and starts to shout lots of nonsense. But Dorofeo recognizes him as the butler of Fernando Lascurain. Ana and Jenn are outside, Ana is calling the police.
At the house Fernando finds out from Manuela that Ana and Bruno left because Ana got a call that was a ‘bronca’ (mess) that she had to handle right away. Fernando not thrilled that Ana did not come to him but he is a bit relieved to know she is with Bruno. Alex comes over to Fernando, he has a tooth ache.
