Quiero Amarte (Week 32-Apr 27) Highlights & Discussion
Please
step into our voting booth. We invite you to select the size anvil for the
characters who have done the most to derail the happiness of our main couples,
Amaya/Max and Mariana/Iván. However, note this is not a secret ballot. If
you wish to amplify your choices with comments, you are invited to do so.
There are four sizes:
1. Full-body size (FBS)—the character will not recover and most likely will serve time in a confined space (this could include a coffin, e.g. Horacio Espinoza)
2. Rib-crushing size (RCS)—the character will recover but will be disgraced (e.g. Constanza)
3. Leg-fracturing size (LFS)—the character will be inconvenienced for having been mean or aided and abetted a major antagonist (e.g. Becca)
4. Nail-breaking size (NBS)—the character is unaware they caused any harm or interfered (e.g. Vale at her snotty worst)
We know certain characters have tried to wreck the lives and plans of other characters (like Cesar did to Lucio and Manuel), but let’s stick to the main protagonists. Dig back into your memory banks and pull out some who may have faded into the mists on Mexican mountains. Have Fun.

Que Te Perdone Dios #69: Love Means Letting Go, Or Maybe Not
• Abigail gives Diego another go at the marriage go-round; they and Renata agree amongst themselves to keep it secret for a while.
• Macaria threatens Renata to keep Abi by her side (and to fill her mind with gawd knows what trash about Ren) instead of leaving the rancho. Her only goal is to now needle Ren at every turn. Ren reminds her that she’s the servant; she’s to stop dissin’ her, and to start addressing her with “usted.” Mac needles her as only Mac can with “ustedito’s”. Grrrr!

La Sombra del Pasado #49 4-24-15 The Stolen Kiss!
We have a brief overlap of the conversation between Adelina
and Aldonza. Aldonza admits that she is
not happy but she will be one day, that happiness being contingent on making
Sev pay for all his offenses. The main
thrust of the scene is Adelina’s firm rejection of Aldonza’ s suspicion that
Cris is as perverse as his parents and her doubting her love for him. Adelina tells her to trust her heart; it’s
one thing that he is their son and raised by them but quite another that he
would ever hurt Padre J. Adelina tells
her never to forget that Cris loves her as much as she loves him!
Lic. Serrano wants Reanato’s resignation on his desk
NOW! Serrano shuts down Sylvia and Pato
and send them away so he can chew Renato out some more. Serrano is unmoved by Renato’s accepting
responsibility and asking pardon and tells Renato to get his cases in order for
his successor: there are lots of
candidates who want an opportunity like he just threw away!
Across town there’s another chewing out going on. Pru accuses Juana of taking the Humberto’s watch
and gives her an ultimatum: if she doesn’t
find it, she is fired! Hum intervenes
and rescues Juanita from Pru’s hypocritical claws.
Ay, Candela is still wearing what she wore the previous
night and we find her in her bedroom feverishly praying with a rosary. Dominga knocks and Cande tearfully bids her
to enter, affectionately calling her “Nana.”
Dominga sees Cande is distraught and crying. Cande pulls Dominga down to the bed where
she sits and holds her hand. Cande cries
that Jeronimo can’t die! Dominga gently
reminds Cande that she’s always been strong and she can’t get weak now. Dominga coos to her that she’ll draw her a nice
hot bath, it will help her relax, and leads her to the bathroom.

Amores con Trampa April 24 2015... the fashion show wrapped in deceptions, dissappointments and appologies. and one villain team mystery solved... i see duos of villains everywhere...
Refritos:
Pancha tries to convince Chabelle that she needs to pull Fel away from Car or she will have to get used to the 'farm channel' scent of the month.
Lo nuevo:
Carmen is showing Fel some of her modeling steps she will use in the catwalk... (eh... pastorela... eh... pasarela). Carmen is very excited about the modeling stint. Chabelle asks Fel if he is trading Pancha for Carmen. She says she can tolerate the Carmonas but she does not want the farmers to join the 'family'
Maria and Facundo in bedroom(they are wearing ALMOST matching plaid pajama pants)... she wants to talk to him about the knitting... he is excited to announce to her they will celebrate their anniversary in a BIG way. (are we talking elephants or giraffes instead of horses and goats now?)
Next morning the lovebirds are telling the rest of the family about the celebration plans. Mother Galla warns them they have to hide all the valuables for the celebration so none of them dissappear. El Gallo wants everyone to know what a great perfect wife he has.
nighttime... at Velascos, Chabelle is getting ready (quite ellegant outfit/jewelry) for the fashion show. Santi asks if tonight will be THAT special. why spend so much on HER outfit? She argues she feels useful and valuable for the first time in a long time. SHe does not think his presence would add much. He is happy to hear that, more time to spend with his Steffffi.
Maria and Carmen are getting dressed. Susana and Margarito (the pig) come in. the others ask her not to tell on them.
Maria and Carmen get to go out, Facundo only ranted a little about the length of Carmen's skirt.
Meanwhle Steffffiiii is with Estevan... they are toasting to deceiving Santi and the farmer and will end up with all the farmer's money... jajajajaja...
Maria and Carmen have made it to the dressing area of the fashion show. The designer is there to help Carmen get ready. He yells at all the makeup/stylists just lke a good designer would. He has a surprise. The last model is none other than... the white rabit!... nah... Wendy Thomas!... nah... none other than PANCHA!!!! Carmen not a happy camper, rather she looks like someone just took her ice cream away. To add insult to injury Fel came in with Pancha.
Santi finds Steffi's door locked. Estevan is hiding behind a plant while Steffi is tryng to calm down Santi who is miffed at finding the door locked.
Chabelle is working the next step of her plan... she tells El Gallo that his wife lied to him, she deceived him and never stopped working on the shawls. she is now at the fashion show. El Gallo looks like he just saw his favorite hen necking with the Gallo from three hen houses down.

Weekend Discussion: Misogyny and Sexism Need an Executioner
I'm in step with those who are watching Amores Con Trampa but still catching up to La Sombra del Pasado (cap 25) and Que Te Perdone Dios (cap 34), but the sexism is getting to me. I totally get that rural environments are often more sexist than urban ones and what's going on in ACT makes a certain amount of sense. However in the 21st century are the other two even close to reality anymore?

Que Te Perdone Dios #68 - Max Bites the Bullet, and Abi Gets Re-Engaged to Uncle Diego
Refrito: Simona walked home after over two months in jail. I
would have expected her to look thinner after so long on jail food, but she
seems healthy. She laments her ruined reputation to Barragan, who assures her
she still has a friend in him. She asks, “What good is it to be honest your
whole life if you can lose it in an instant by people telling lies about you?”
She conveniently forgets that she has lied, and lied to cover up her lies.
But hers was for a good reason, not like other liars.
Replay the meeting of Diana and Toño. She asks Julio, “What
are you doing with this character from the market?” which makes it sound like
he’s the guy dressed in the chicken suit. Julio: “He’s my son.”
New: Violeta shows up at Simona’s house. This part is a
little confusing, because she knocks even though she’s been living there alone
for the last two months, unless unbeknownst to us she reconciled with her bag-of-wind hubby Marcelino. She apologizes for not giving Simona a ride home. It
does seem like the least she could have done. Violeta says she lost the campaign.
Simona tries to be positive, but Violeta knows. Then Simona takes the blame,
but Violeta won’t have it. It’s the people who told the lies about Sim murdering Mia that lost them the
election. Simona: “The sun will come out tomorrow. Bet your bottom dollar.”

Hasta el Fin del Mundo #175 Mob Wife...Sophia is Engaged!
I don't have cable. The signal came in and out during the last 12 minutes of the show. Please fill in what I didn't see.
Now where was I before I was so rudely interrupted by Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday?
Ripoll: Peralta suggests that Sophia read the contract. Sophia says that she trusts him and signs the company away, I'm certain. Afterwards, Peralta asks her out for dinner. As they are leaving, Dani rushes in and thanks Peralta for putting up the ransom. Without it, she would've be in the Christian's unwilling bride. Dani leaves and Chava barges in. He begs for five minutes of Sophia's time. Peralta tells Chava he and Sophia have dinner reservations and he will definitely be trying to get in Sophia's pants. Chava becomes all enraged in stuff. He begs Sophia not to put that seducution visualization into his brainor ours.
Cruz Residence-Kitchen: Marisol is all pissed at Chava for literally c*ck blockin' Patrick! Chava asked Dani not to allow her to work late. Lupe tells Marisol that she agrees with Chava. It's dangerous for a chick to work alone at night. Araceli who is present tells Lupe and Marisol that she can't wait until Chava accepts her as part of the family.

La Sombra del Pasado #48 - Thu 4/23 - A lot of waiting
Aldonza is in shock. Padre J just left the house! She starts getting her shoes on and grabbing her coat and purse while she tells Cris they're on their way.
Pru succumbs to the temptation of her pretty phone…will she call Tomas, a.k.a. Papi Chulo?
Silvia goes somewhere that's not her house, but that's ok, Lardo has his new BFF the skeevy cab driver to hang out with him and wait for her to leave again. Thanks, Skeevy Cab Driver!
Silvia is at Renato's house, telling his dad that Renato is close to losing his job because of his trips to Santa Lucia. If he doesn't come into the office tomorrow….

Que Te Perdone Dios #67: Pity Party for One?
Cap 67
• Abigail races over to the Montero place to help Toño through his drunken sob-fest.
• Abi learns Tony's pissed cuz he’s pissed to have learned that Simona lied to him all his life about not really being his mother. How would she feel if she found out the same? Abi frowns big-time. It doesn’t look very good for Renata’s Tale of Truth.
• Meanwhile, the cops do an end run around Julian-lio to bring him to Com. Barragan’s office for a sit-down. Comandante explains that there’s no proof Simona killed Mia. She’s about to be let free unless El Lio de Juli or his “sister,” Diana have some other complaint.
• Macaria and Fausto get into a game of chicken over whose threat is greater re: Who Shot J.R.—er…Pablo. He takes out The Gun from his office safe as she watches closely, wipes the barrel off, just in case after all these years there might still be a print or two of his, and then calls Barragan’s office to have him come over with information leading to the case. Rotten shame, he says, if you serve a life sentence for the murder of a man I killed! Just as Barragan arrives, the argument subsides as Feisty has won this battle of wits with Mac also. It's Jaque-mate. Checkmate! Vicenta is told through the closed office door to send Barragan home due to a “cancelled appointment.”
• Abi returns home and explains to Ren about Tony and his predicament. No way she’d ever forgive anyone telling her that the woman who raised her wasn’t really her mother. Of course, she adds, it would be just another lie of many around there for her.
• Ren visits Simona in jail to pay her respects and empathize with her over the rotten way Tony has rejected her. She returns home and promptly loses her courage over coming clean with Abi about being her real mother. She remembers Mac’s snide threats from earlier, Abi’s declaration and feels totally helpless.

4/22 Tue #174 Hasta el Fin del Mundo – Calling Patricio a Rata con Dos Patas is an insult to Ratas
Empressa Ripoll
Patricieeeeewwww continues seducing Marisol. In his mind, he’s just demonstrating what
sexual harassment in the workplace looks like.
Meanwhile at Casa Chava, Chava finally takes notice that
Marisol’s running a little late and decides to call her cellphone and it goes
straight to voicemail. He decides to go
check on her. Lupe is so proud of her
son, watching over his sister as though he were actually her father. Actually Lupe, it’s just that since he’s no longer
joined at the hip to his güerita,
he has nothing else to do. Luckily for
Marisol, he’d do anything to get away from Aracely.
Highrise Cantina
Irais and Matias are having a good time and she’s had a bit
too much. Jughead insists on drinking a
toast to “impossible loves.” Irais
insists on getting the check before it gets too expensive, blah blah blah. He agrees to take her to her depa and maybe
continue the party there.

Bullets! They are from memory, woefully out of order and short on detail. I'll come back in the morning and really recap.
- Simoneta visits Lola at the shop. Dominga shows up, too. Sim tries to introduce herself, but Dom refuses to shake her hand. Sim leaves and Dominga goes after her, almost knocking Aldonza down.
- The senior partner grills Silvia. Did she know Renato was in SL? She says she only thought he was helping a friend. Abelardo(Lardo) pipes up that Renato is filing lawsuits outside of the lawfirm. Senior partner instructs Silvia to get in touch with Renato and tell him to call them. Senior partner also wants her to get Lardo's contact info. Lardo apologizes for causing problems. Silvia calls Renato and tells him to call the senior partner. They are in deep caca. Lardo eavesdrops at the door.
- Dominga chases down Sim in the street. She wants to know what Sim wants with her granddaughter. Sim just wants to get to know her. Dominga asks Sim what will Lola think when she finds out her mother abandoned her. Sim doesn't think Dominga has a right to say anything. Dominga let Lola believe her mother was dead! Now Sim just wants to get to know her daughter.

Recap courtesy of HellaShelle!
Hey guys. I’m a little scattered this week, so I apologize if I forgot anything.
Re-re-cap-cap: Lola runs off, Eman calls after her, Pato tells him to back off. Sim/Viv runs into Lola, offers some generic comfort and invites her to dinner. Hum tells Sev he’s back on Team Sevil.
New Stuff: Hum tells Sev that PJ is on the Case of the Missing Love Child which worries Hum because he actually has an actual conscience that actually bothers him sometimes. Sev, in addition to an arm and heart, is missing that too, so he’s not worried; PJ can’t prove anything.

Don Peralta’s Office
Geronimo is worried Silvana will rat out Patricio and him to
the authorities. She’s a loose
cannon. She swears she’d never do
that. She pledges her allegiance to him
and asks him to allow her to return.
Welllll, Gerry’s not so sure about that.
She and her brother have caused him an awful lot of headaches
lately. Silvana, feeling his hands
closing around her throat pleads for mercy and asks for the honor of working
for him. She’d do whatever he asks. Well, ok, he’s gonna allow her to
return. Silvana just about bows and
scrapes, thanking him profusely. For her
first assignment, he wants her to speak with Cristian and warn him her life is
in danger if he talks.

I'm kind of tired tonight so this will be a quick and dirty recap. Let's get to it!
Monday's Episode:
Dani wants to think about something other than her harrowing experience with Iker. She tells Lucas that she is going to work and that she will see him there. They make out in the kitchen while their annoying theme song plays in the background.

The Ripolls gather in Sofia's bedroom to talk about Dani's ordeal over morning coffee. Dani tells them that psycho Iker didn't want money, he wanted her! He was obsessed with Dani and hired thugs to kill Lucas - but the reason he came to the Ripoll house in the first place was to kill Greta!
