La Sombra del Pasado #33 4/2/15 ¿Fiesta o Pesadilla?
Disclaimer: I haven't been sleeping well this week, so this might end up being a quick job. I tried to take a nap this afternoon after work, but the neighbors are pulling out their concrete patio...with a jack hammer. That's not hyperbole.
This episode felt a little like filler-esque set up...but at the same time oddly tense.
Directo al grano
This episode felt a little like filler-esque set up...but at the same time oddly tense.
Directo al grano
- Severiano(Sev) instructs Abelardo(Lardo) to break into Dr. Humberto's office, locate the rental contract, take clear and legible pictures of and then trash the office to make it look like a robbery. Lardo gets a wad of cash for the job.
- Renato shares a meal with his mother. She is again overcome with a stabbing pain in her head. Renato begs her to take care of herself and see the neurologist. He will go with her. She finally agrees. His mother quips that he seems more like a father than a son.
- Adelina thanks Emmanuel(E-man) for helping to clean the house, especially since it's his day off. She worries what Sev would do if he found out. Aldonza and Joaquin arrive with new locks. Adelina's eyes are google as she watches Joaquin install the new locks. She thinks about her conversation with Padre Jeronimo(Padre J) when she admitted to only having an admiration and respect for him and nothing more.

Que Te Perdone Dios Capitulo 53 - Whats a Promise??? - Full Recap
Recap :Courtesy of TN4EVER
Refrito: Helena applies guilt with a trowel to Mateo, saying he’ll matarla en vida (kill her in life, make her as good as dead) if he leaves his wife and child. She is firmly on Diana’s side. “Even above my happiness?” “Yes. It’s the job of the parents to make sacrifices for their children.”
New: Comandante Barragan approaches Motor at the mechanic shop and asks if Motor had a chance to look over the car in which Fausto had his accident. Yes, he did and it does indeed appear that somebody le metió mano (put a hand in it, messed with it). Barragan says that whoever messed with Fausto’s vehicle also messed with the Padre’s. Motor is like, “That would be me.” But Barragan expresses his faith that Motor is innocent, that Marcelino framed him, and that they will find the true culprit.
Lucio is sitting at Mac’s table in her house when she walks in. She gets a little frisky, sitting on his lap and saying she never thought she would say it, but she missed him. I didn’t quite catch their whole conversation, but it seemed like he said she was full of it and she said yeah, I am. She asks after Max, and he says Max is safe in Mexico City. Lucio asks if she made use of Benito since she was missing Lucio, just like she makes use of him (Lucio) when Fausto rejects her. Then he grabs her in a choke hold and says if Benito caves to Barragan about their involvement with Fausto’s accident, he will kill Benito. I’m not sure why he needs to be choking Mac as he says this, but she seems okay with it and they kiss.
The twins are together, and Daniela says she wishes Lucio would go away because he makes her nervous. He’s obviously a criminal. “No worse than our father, and you handled him just fine,” says Ximena, teasing us with a back story that we don’t know yet. Anyway, Daniela needs to pull herself together and run the show for a while, because Ximena will be checking into a spa for some R&R before her hubby comes home from the hospital.

Que Te Perdone Dios #52: Discussion Page
Thanks to TF and TN4ever for the highlights recap. --ed.
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
Sev explains to Abelardo that he needs a discreet, reliable henchman…and preferably one who shuts up until Sev tells him to speak.
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!!
Refritos:
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
Recap courtesy of HellaShelle
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.

3/31/15 Tues #158 Aracely’s tears will continue……HASTA EL FIN DEL MUNDO!!!
Casa Ripoll – Casa de Lagrimas
Sofia is overwrought upon
learning her dad (technically stepdad),
Octavio, isn't the hero she thought him to be.
Greta explains how Octavio threatened Paco's life if she ever told the
truth about him stealing the chocolate formulas. But she can no longer remain silent. Paco should no longer continue to sacrifice
himself, she won't allow it! Even if it
means Octavio now has further reason to be angry with her (yeah, like he’s
alive).
Sofia can't believe the man who
raised her was capable of stealing her father's formulas. Greta confirms he unfortunately was and
Paco's love for her is so strong that he asked Greta not to tell Sofia the
truth. He didn't want to ruin Octavio's
supposedly irreproachable image in Sofia's eyes. “He asked me to tell you that Coria was the
one responsible for the theft. But I
can't. I've owed this clarification for some
time, for Paco. This family owes
everything we have to him.” Sofia wails,
“Then all those strict rules imposed on me by Octavio were all a farce!” Greta explains Octavio hated Paco. He never forgave her for choosing Paco. That may have been why he was so adamant that
they marry under those circumstances. He
and her mother forced her into the marriage.
She admits that as a husband, Octavio gave her many nice things. She had his affection and loyalty. As a father he gave them all his love. But there was a dark side to him. He was overcome by ambition and the need for
power. Sofia never would have thought
that of him. Greta is so very sorry to
have to tell her this and cause her so much pain. She's also sorry to have gone against Paco's
wishes.
Sofia can't take anymore and
leaves the room in tears. waaaaaah

Amores con Trampa #2 31 Nar 2015 ... opposites attract... times four? Isa smells animals stinch, Santiago smells money!!
Refritos:
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!’.

Amores con trampa, Ep. 1, Monday, 3/30/15: Cowabunga!
After
a few episodes, we can all settle in. We
know it's a comedy. These good actors
know that we know. I'm counting on the
writers to let the actors do their stuff without elbowing us too many times. (Did you get the joke? Huh? Huh? Was it funny?
Answer me!)
In
this first episode, the salt of the earth Carmona family mooooves to the city, where they meet the snooty familia Velasco. The Velascos happen to be in a vulnerable
position right now. Their construction
company is in trouble. Maybe the
bumbling Carmona family will be just the cash cow the Velascos need...
How
it all begins
Blissed out. A man and his cow.

Stumpy gets found out! La Sombra del Pasado #30 03/30/2015
Recap is done!
Renato is such a doll:
In the towns restaurant Aldonza is with Renato, she tells him that she needs his help but she has to warn him, she is going to be fighting against a very powerful enemy. Renato is down to help and Aldonza tells him very clearly that she appreciates his willingness to help her but that he should not confuse things: he is there as her friend and attorney-nothing else. Renato tells her he will be there for her no matter what and maybe someday things between them will change...Aldi (Aldonza) again tells him that she is not ready to have a relationship with anyone.
Candela is a witch:
But we all knew that, sadly poor E-man keeps encountering her and she takes every opportunity to be a b*tch to him. E-man came over to the big house to speak to Cristobal, instead he finds Candy who lies and tells him Cris is in bed, because unlike others he gets to bed at a decent time, she sends him away and makes sure to tell him not repeat his error again. Poor E-man, I hope that someday he stabs her in her sleep.
Cris is of course not sleeping, he is waiting for E-man to bring him an update on Aldi, Dominga finds him and asks him if he wants something to eat. He says no and asks if E has come around, Dominga tells him "nope". Emmanuel and Cris totally need cell phones-cell phones with passwords and then they could text each other all the juicy Aldi news. Cris tells Dominga that Emmanuel was going to bring him some news about a few umm horses, but Dominga is on to him and knows darn well that that's not the truth, she even asks in a round about way if maybe E-man was going to bring him news about a woman, Cris denies it. The phone rings and Honey Boo Boo, I mean Valeria is on the other end of the line, she wants to speak with Cris but he signals Dominga to tell her he is asleep, Val requests that Cris go visit her the following day.
Dominga is worried, if he is avoiding Valeria now what will happen when they get married and have to live with each other? She tells him that she has a bad feeling about the way things are going and Cris gives her a tender hug and kiss and tells her she should go back to the kitchen because he thinks her beans might be burning.
Legend has it...
That if you walk alone at night a grumpy grandfather will be jump out of the shadows and warn you against hurting his beloved granddaughter, at least that's what Melesio did to E-man, he saw him and Mari together and he tells Emmanuel that they looked way too cozy . E-man tells him that Mari is all over him like white on rice, like a frat boy on a drunk co-ed, like Bill Clinton on a chubby staffer, well you get the point. He tells Mel that he will clarify to Mari that he is not into her, and Mel tells him he better not hurt Lola, or else.
Elsewhere, Lola prays to the virgin Mary, she hopes Mari has not stolen that drooling fool also known as E-man from her.

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.

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.

La Sombra del Pasado #29 3-27-15 Three Caballeros and a Padre
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.
Operation happy family begins at the Mendoza breakfast
table. Sev and Cande are able to fit in
a mini inquisition re Cris's whereabouts the preceding night (when he was playing a
moonlight Romeo outside of Aldonza’s window); a vote of support for his version
of the Lardo beat down story and an assurance that he is free to leave Las
Animas as soon as he weds, all before the cornflakes lose their crunch. Cris wonders why the sudden change of heart
but he appreciates it and reassures Sev he will continue to work in the
hacienda until he marries. Cris should’ve
hung around one more minute and heard the ominous music and Sev’s vow to make
sure he stays.
Adelina gives Aldonza the lease and keys and quick as a
flash she’s off to find someone to help her get the house in order, waving
aside Adelina and Padre J’s attempts to find out where she’s going. Padre is very interested in the question Adelina
put to Humberto. She tells him that he “swore
by his daughter that the baby (girl) was born dead.” Padre doesn’t believe that for a minute: It doesn’t make sense to him that Sev would
be intent on carrying away a dead baby and he certainly doesn’t believe it was
because he wanted to give it a proper Christian burial. Padre wants to look more into the background
of this whole event and to do that he says he needs Adelina’s
authorization. Ah, Padre J. sure knows
how to keep Adelina in the game, doesn’t he?
