Que Te Perdone Dios Capitulo 103- Highlights
I am putting up the highlights of yesterday's episode :
Read more »
- Max learns from Uncle Scarecrow that Porf & Fausto have each other for a long time and that his uncle was the only financier of his treatment but even so he'd rather be dead than to go with him cause Lucio's capture is now inevitable.
- Faust as twisted as always is cruelly telling Elena about the state of the children only to spew crocodile tears on demand as inside of his mind he laments " They're my kids" . (Pardon me but Faust Lopez Guerra is one of the most sick & twisted villians ever, I gotta go throw up in the toilet! I usually love the villians but Fausto makes my stomach wild) Meanwhile Mat & Abi are praying in which Mat begs God to not take away his second child away and if someone has to receive Karma may he be the only recipient . Meanwhile Abi lurks from behind sadly.

La Sombra del Pasado #84 6-12-15 In The Shadow of Death. . .
Greetings, Sombra Patio Peeps! We begin where we left off with the sadly not shocking assault of Severiano upon the pregnant and frail Simoneta Viviana! Sev sent her flying over the sofa and we all saw the dreaded trickle of blood from the ear which signals certain death. We don’t get a replay of that psychotic split between laughter and horror but instead Sev kneels next to S/V and feels a pulse which is presented to us audibly. He begins to squeeze, his face contorting and blooming crimson, his eyes bugging out and veins popping just as he did when he murdered Padre Sixto right in the church. Slowly the pulse fades as Sev looks skyward as if giving thanks, relief replacing the labor of snuffing out a life. Simonetta Viviana is dead!
Before I finish this sad and evil tale, I want to catch up
with the buff and hopeful Emanuel who has gone to San Miguel hoping to enter
the equestrian competitions with Solitario, his first love. He is further hopeful because he has just
declared his love to Lola and she reciprocated with words and deep, passionate
kisses. Ah! Life is good!. . . .Or so he thought. The same night Eman arrives in San Miguel he
is mugged by a couple of thugs, the details of which we were spared but we did
see them pull a knife on him and hold it to his throat! Yikes!
When next we see him, it’s the next morning and he’s walking along the
road trying to hitchhike back to Santa Lucia.
Now. I don’t know if
he had the cash to enter the competition on him, I’m assuming he did and the
thugs made off with it and his phone. Please feel free to weigh in, my friends. We at the Cougar Table and the whole patio
are just glad he’s not hurt! So, let’s
see what his second love, Lola, is up to!

Amores con Trampa #55 ... Isabela keeps falling deeper and deeper into passional insanity...
Refritos:
The animal protection folks arrive and announce they are
there because there was an accusation/complaint of animal abuse. They tell
Maria, grandma, et al that you can’t have animals like these in this area, and
that the complaint/accusation came from Isabela Bocceli de Velasco.
Said Isabela is with Frederick in her house… he wants her to
come along to some sale event. She can’t leave the house. He will go alone to the bank to solicit a
limit-less credit card (yeah right, like they will hand it to you).
Back in the ruckus outside, Facu won’t let the men take the
animals. He tells the guys that their
animals are well loved and taken care of.
Porfirio comes and seconds Facu’s statement.
The guys insist they have to take the animals away… grandma,
gusana and Jacinto get in the ‘leave ‘ em here!’ team. Andres is just a few yards
away watching the action…
Maria sneaks away… she is steaming angry and heading in a
direct line toward Isabel who is now with Conchita saying some yoga/spiritual
hymn… with headphones on… they don’t see or hear Maria until Maria is right on
top of Isabel ripping her headphones away.
Conchita gets stuttering scared while Isa screams bloody murder and
Maria starts following her around the huge fountain area. Isabel and Maria end up in the water… Maria
seems to be in her zone while Isabela keeps screaming/whealing and yelling for
help. COnchita comes to try to help her but only gets wet too. Now the threesome are dancing some strange
ring around the rosie game around one of the fountains.
Suddenly Maria all dripping wet comes in her house, still
angry. She won’t tell and it is not
until Grandma and Porfirio try to get her to speak… that she responds. She has a really weird scary voice as if she
were now a zombie… threats Facu not to leave the house… she heads right back
out. Facu is scared and runs after her.
Grandma does not let Porfirio do anything… Gusana approaches him and
says she understands him, not so the oxygenated blonde across the street.
Beto comes to Isabel’s store to visit Rocio. Rocio is glad
to see him and opens up to him, sayings he is tired of the life she is running
and the family she is living with. She
does not want to talk about the reality, rather close her eyes and enjoy this
very moment. They are about to kiss when a customer lady comes in asking about
the wraps that Maria had made and they sold at the store. The lady insists
asking Rocio to look in the back closets… Rocio assures her they don’t have any
more in the store. The lady leaves. Beto
asks if she was asking about the wraps his mom was making. Rocio says yes,
ladies come asking for them daily. IF your mom kept making them she would
become a millionaire.

Lo Imperdonable #19 Thu 6/11/15 Who Needs Couples Therapy When You Can Settle Your Differences By Fencing
This will be a short and quick summary:
* Martin in confessional tells Padre Juan that he married the woman who caused his brother's death to get revenge on her. Padre Juan asks him - how can he be so sure? Martin explains that he's sure because she's the owner of the pendant. Her initials are V. Prado Castelo - Veronica Prado Castelo. Martin admits that Veronica is driving him crazy because she appears nice and good while in reality she's a damn viper. Martin also admits that he is in love with Veronica. "If you love her and she loves you shouldn't that be enough for you to forgive her?" Padre Juan asks. It's not enough for Martin who still wants revenge and doesn't care what it costs. Martin admits that he made this confession in confessional to seal Padre's lips. Padre Juan reprimands him for having stooped so low as to have sealed his lips this way. Martin knows he has no pardon and doesn't even know if he'll be able to forgive himself when he gets his revenge. He runs out of church with Padre Juan calling after him. Later, Padre Juan prays so God can guide him and give him words to tell Martin so he won't go along with his revenge.
* Virginia informs Salma that thanks to Claudia she was able to find out (via a fax sent by Martin) that Martin and Veronica arrived fine to Mina Escondida. Salma doesn't quite like that Claudia and Virgina have become friends because Claudia is a tad vulgar and extravagant. Virginia agrees that Claudia dresses a tad provocatively but she doesn't like to judge and believes that what matters is what is on the inside (yeah right, Virginia). When Virginia notices that Emiliano has entered the mansion she badmouths Veronica subtlety over Veronica not having been the one who sent the fax home to let the family know how she was doing.
* Cresnecio orders Manuel to apologize to Julio for having hit him. But Manuel refuses because 1. he's not sorry what he did and 2. if he apologizes then he'd lose authority with Julio and the other miners. Cresencio will give Manuel a pass on this but tells him it better not happen again or else Cresencio will give Julio permission to hit Manuel back.

Que Te Perdone Dios #102 – The Phantom is Here, Tragedy With Diana and the Bebés, Toño is a Thug and Renata is Blinded By the Light
I couldn’t watch last night,
so the refried is like new, and I’m not altogether sure why doorMat is being a
jerk to Abi – again. But when he has ever had or needed a reason, and when has
she cared? No complaints tonight about not enough action. What an episode!
At the hospital, Mat makes some comment about people bothering
him which Diana says is directed to Abigail. Porfiro, a.k.a. The Phantom,
inquires of Xi-ela if she knows anything about Dissociative Identity Disorder,
or in lay terms, split personality.
The Phantom refry scene segues into new material. He is
reading Fausto, Faust in English of course, which is hilarious. Xi-ela
(Angel Wings) hasn’t read it, and when he says it’s about a man who is unhappy
with his life and makes a deal with the devil, she suggests he should read
something more uplifting. He scoffs at the thought of a self-help book,
especially since he couldn’t find How to Live With Your Disfigurement While
Trapped in a Wheelchair in 20 Steps. Xi-ela doesn’t appreciate his sarcasm.
He says that he would make a deal with the devil to win her love. Cara de
impactada and fearful.

La Sombra del Pasado #83 6/11/15
Tonight's format is again inspired by Hellashelle.
The Short Version:
After getting busted coming out of Sev's office, Padre J and Dom think fast. She says Padre J was there to talk to Mel. Since Padre J had to make a phone call, Dom offered Sev's office for privacy. Cande, still smarting about the communion incident, tells Padre J that he and Aldonza should stay away from the hospital. Padre J assure her they will. He leaves. Dom asks how Padre J offended Cande. Cande tells her how she was denied communion. I believe Dom was about to remind Cande about slapping Aldonza in the church, but Cande interrupts her.
Read more »
The Short Version:
- Padre J and Dom make excuses. Cande barely buys them. Recapper snorts.
- Sev keeps Aldonza out of Cris’ room. Recapper throws stuff at the TV.
- Hum says medical stuff. Recapper wonders if it's really that important.
- Cris goes for a walk. A bloody mess and recapper nausea ensues. Recapper decides it probably makes Hums earlier doctor talk moot.
- Emanuel goes to San Miguel. He takes a shower. Then he gets mugged. Recapper approves his choice of towel. It offset the chest nicely.
- Mari finds out Emanuel is in San Miguel. She has an idea she wants to run by Valeria. Recapper curses.
- Silvia talks to Aldonza about “the kiss.” Aldonza insists it was more like their lips barely touched. Recapper shakes head in disbelief.
- Val goes to the hospital. She makes comments about Aldonza being slutty like her mother. Recapper blood pressure rises.
- Sim calls Lola. She needs help. Lola calls Hum. Hum figures out Sim’s condition. Hum tells Sev. Sev visits Sim. Bye Bye Sim?

Lo Imperdonable #18 Wed 6/10/15 A bloody day in Mina Escondida – Rub your arm if you're feeling the stress.
Sorry, folks, but LatinaInMd is under the weather tonight, so this is NovelaMaven pinch-hitting for her.
When we left the happy couple last night, Verónica had just discovered a huge bloodstain under a side table. Meanwhile, Crazy Marty was crouching over Demetrio's dusty grave and vowing to keep the (crazy) promise he made.
Note: Claudia has the night off so she can get her legs waxed.
Note: Claudia has the night off so she can get her legs waxed.
You're a guy who appreciates the classics. Am I wrong?
Pablo is fast-talking his way out of trouble with Crescencio, offering to capture a non-Kodak moment with a painting of his grandchildren. Despite the scorn of Manny the Hump (or maybe because of it), Crescencio seems to be warming to the idea. When Pablo proposes setting Crescencio in the middle of the picture as the patriarch of the family, the deal may well be sealed. Crescencio will meet Pablo in the cantina the next day at noon to discuss it.
The mail will go through, but it might be a little late.
Julio watches as Ana Perla begs M. Dussage to deliver a letter to Pablo, only to learn that he is already in Mina Escondida and anxious to see her. When M. Dussage points out that Julio is observing them, Ana Perla explains that Julio is not a threat: the abuelo asked him to keep an eye on her. Besides, he is an old friend. She smiles at Julio, who smiles back at her.

La Sombra del Pasado #82 - Wed 6/10 - Undercover shenanigans
Mmmmmm…lovin' the replay of Lola and Emmanuel's steamy scene.
Hum gives Sev an "I told you so!" both about Cris' leg and Roberta giving birth. And he calls him on lying about the injury to his arm. Hum is sick and tired of being asked to do surgeries he's not qualified to do, and Sev can bring in his own damn surgeon if he doesn't like Hum's attitude, damnit!

Que Te Perdone Dios Capitulo 100- Mac's got a Beanie & Marc's Scheißen Tag
I dont have much time to recap today so i will just do a short one today. This show can be described in few paraghraps anyway :)
In no particular order:
- Diego desires to learn the identity of his father from Padre Tomas ( He also now knows that Tom knew about Diego's heritage) but the Padre insists that he is bound by the glorious Secret of Confession. All holy rants ensue from both of them.
- Julian and Mano Mio Negra stack their money in their safe ready to collect their rapid earnings. There's also party in Casino Julian but Marc's at first what is to be lucky night later observes Violeta's performance and throws a fit. Fausto, Lucio & CountXAlacran observe Marc's rage with great glee and we share a troll- like laugh at the situation and Mano Negra defends the damsel in distress Violeta and shows Marc his place. Pussy Marc swears that Mano will pay dearly for his antics.

La Sombra del Pasado, Capitulo 81: People are losing their breakfasts, their youth, their minds, their lovers, their shirts and who knows what else!
RECAP BY HELLASHELLE
If you saw it, a taste: Aldie’s not mad about the hair thievery. She sneaks in to see Cris while he’s knocked out. PJ wants to steal a sample of Sev’s blood and forge his signature to do another DNA test! Tomas searches for Pru. When they find each other, Pru tells the truth about the lies she weaved, and Tomas weaves a lie to cover the truth of where he was. Mel struggles with guilt over Cris’s accident and fear of aging. Val struggles with morning sickness. S/V tries to get a hold of Sev. Lola and Eman kiss again, in a big way. Hum tells Sev that Cris might lose his leg!
If you missed it, a bigger bite:After Emmanuel admits that he and Cris are creepy creepsters, Aldonza gives him a huge hug and kiss on the cheek and thanks him. Then she smacks his shoulder and tells him never to do something like that again! It was in no way a good thing, but…she repeats the hug, kiss and thanks again. She doesn’t want to lose trust between them. He and C are some crooked shysters. Wonderful, but crooked shysters. PJ comes in to tell them they can donate blood now.
Teresa and her husband try to wake Pru up. She’s got a weak pulse and won’t fully come to. They want to call Hum, but she revives enough to slur a no.

Lo Imperdonable #16-17 Special Post #16 Final Scene (Televisa Uncut) & #17 Part of Opening Scene (Cut by Univision)
The above clip includes the complete final scene of Episode #16 as broadcast in Mexico on Televisa. The last 30 seconds were cut from the Univision broadcast.
Sorry all - I tried to upload the complete opening scene of Episode #17 but this would have been twice as large in memory as the #16 clip; so I had to edit it down to include primarily the part of the opening scene that Univision cut from the opening - the same stuff cut from #16, plus a bit more, as you will see below.

Lo Imperdonable #16 Mon 6/8/15 Honeymoon Hotel? No, Honeymoon in Hell!
The Church in the City – All you need is love
Jorge escorts Vero down the aisle to the grumpy groom waiting at the altar. The church is surprisingly empty – no budget for lots of extras, I guess. (Or maybe the Prado Castelo family is not quite as important as they think they are.) Oblivious Vero gazes adoringly at Crazy Marty. Marty continues to scowl, though now and then one corner of his mouth twitches up in that spasmodic parody of a smile.
Pueblo Nuevo – Burning for you
Ana Perla is so distracted by her daydreams of Pablo that she burns breakfast.
¿Inaceptable?
Mariana is sure that she and Pablo will be the next happy couple at the altar. Claudia is so verklempt at seeing Crazy Marty slip out of her clutches that she has to leave the church. Nana Matilde never stops beaming. Nasty Ginny rolls her eyes.
Veronica says "I do." But when it's Marty's turn, he hesitates long enough for Jorge to open his mouth like a fish – oh! bubble bubble – and look helplessly at Salma, for Matilde to throw up her hands in despair and for everyone else in the church to get VERY uncomfortable.

Amores con trampa #51 and #52 6/8/15 and 6/9/15
I've been perusing old Alborada and La fea mas bella recaps to get a better sense of Caray. I noticed a greater emphasis on vocabulary. It did start out as a blog for people who wanted to learn or improve their Spanish after all. I'll try to be better about including vocabulary. I'm going to embed the vocabulary, but also include a list at the end in case you are keeping your own. That way the copying and pasting will be easier. The words I include may not be super useful. They just caught my fancy for whatever reason.
Rocio wants to talk to Isabel about her mother.
The evening's schtick. Conchita dressed in traditional garb and serving dinner: Espetgueti boloñesa (which doesn't explain her French accent.) Porfirio complains. More chili and salt, please. Conchita is mortified that Susana is putting it in a tortilla. Egg jokes. Perpetul offers to fix something. She complains about Conchita the fufurufa (falsely hoity toity.)
Maria notices Fac is upset. He claims it's because of Esteban. Maria suggests they cancel the fiesta. Everyone protests. They try to explain "coma" to Fac.
Rocio wants to know why Isa gets to tense when they talk about her mom. Isa claims she's just sad. Rocio wants to know about the mass. Isa promises to arrange it. After Rocio leaves, Isa comments that Rocio can't find out the truth.
Maria asks about Esteban's accident. She doesn't understand how it happened. Fac doesn't either. We're all on borrowed time. Beto is just about to say what happened, but decides to just say it was an accident. Fac excuses himself. He's tired. He asks for Porfirio's blessing.

About SPAM and DISAPPEARING COMMENTS and SORRY, SUSANLYNN!
Dear friends,
You may or may not know that our blog is attacked daily by frenzied legions of spammers. These days most of them are witch doctors, but in the old days they were peddling limousine services and air conditioners. I have turned on comment moderation after a week, and am now deleting most of the spam by hand...
... but I just discovered that blogger has, in its own attempt to ease my burden, been classifying zillions of spam comments - but also plenty of legitimate ones - as spam...
... for instance, I just found a folder on the site called SPAM and in it were about 1,500 comments dating back a couple of years and a lot of them were from (sob) Susanlynn who is one of our longest-contributing and devoted fans...
... so, if you find that your legitimate comments are not appearing (ie you are not a witch doctor or an air conditioning salesman) write to me at caray@mappamundi.com and let me know.

No Empty Threats, Or, ADmit It! We're All Just Swimming In Swill!
Simona
wishes Violeta luck with her job interview.
While Motor
and Toño chug a couple of chilled ones back at Simona’s place, Tony tells
Motor that Daddy Dearest is going to get his clock cleaned for dipping his wick
where others had not feared to tread. Motor
mentions Teodora’s rape and Tony isn’t pleased.
Diana, down
in the dumps and feelin’ dumpy, is still looking for love in all the wrong
places. She sits in Lucio’s humbling
hovel waiting for him to load her up on compliments. (Guess being preggers is not always all it’s
cracked up to be, Dee Dee.) Once she
leaves, Lucio goes rooting around in Max’s box of inherited jewels for a
necklace to please Dee with. The one he
comes up with looks like it could pay for all of Max’s cancer treatments and
then some.
Vi’s voice and
La Mano Negra convince Julian-lio that he should give her a two week trial at
his club. Mano looks like he’s
interested in her and chats her up a bit.
Fausto is
convinced that Max is “El Anonimo” and he pays a visit to Macaria having
decided that they should become lovers again—frenemies of sorts--she’s an enemy
equally vile, vicious, and conniving as he is, he tells her. He’d rather keep her close if they can work
together again. They seal the deal with
a seductive roll in the sack—her price for her loyalty. She promises
him again to let him have one go with Abigail as proof of her “loyalty” and
love. A moment or two after they’re done
doin’ the deed and in the middle of “afterglow”, Renata walks right into Mac’s
brick cottage unannounced and is looking for Abi. Feisty is forced to flee the scene by
sneaking past. Ren thinks she smells his
aftershave but Mac swears he’s been nowhere around her place recently.
Later in
the day Mateo gripes at Mac for knowing about his wife’s affair with his uncle
and never saying anything. Mac hides
behind the excuse that she tried telling him way back when they dated but he
wouldn’t listen. He asks if she knows
whether they carried on the affair even after they got married, but Mac plays
dumb on that score. But, not happy unless
she’s getting under somebody’s skin, she goads him by saying that Abi, as
nothing more than a maid’s daughter cannot expect any serious relationship from
her beauty and will probably end up some rich man’s mistress. Mat goes ballistic and begins shaking the
be-jesus out of her for it. “—Why do you
always say those terrible things about your own daughter??? Is that what you want? To sell her??? Huh?”
Feisty
walks in and saves Mac’s bacon. Mat’s
forced to stomp out of the kitchen knowing he’s too much of a gentleman to give
Mac the beat-down she deserves.
Across the
way, Abi brings Max back to his humble abode and waits with him while he vomits
and then puts him to bed.
Back in the
hacienda’s kitchen, Macaria plays Ms. Innocent and cannot imagine why Mat’s in
such a foul mood. She complains that
they’re both so obviously in love with her daughter and both of them get so
testy over it! Feisty grabs her by the
throat and threatens her if she dares trying to play both ends against the
middle when it comes to Mat and him.
They’ve just reconciled, but she’s not beyond his reach. “--Don’t threaten me! I’m not afraid of death or of jail.” “—No, I won’t bother killing you. If you dare betray me again I’ll gouge your eyes out
with my own hands so you’ll live in the same darkness as Renata! Ha, so you are afraid of that, aren’t you?”
Outside the
manse, meanwhile, Dee is moping on one of the benches in the back garden when
Lucio comes trotting up. He fills her
full of flattery and hands her the necklace to cheer her up. He races off when Helena comes up the
walkway. Hellie admires her
daughter-in-law’s necklace and helps Di put it on. She asks where it came from and Di says she
inherited it from Tía Mia. Hellie says
she honestly doesn’t know if she could ever trust Di again.
Di again swears by all that’s sacred that she
never was involved with anyone after she felt hopelessly in love and married
Mat; she then sways the conversation towards making mistakes and keeping secrets
and the tone takes on a guilefully menacing air. “—Everyone has made mistakes and some have
been kept secret. Haven’t you got some
secrets of your own? I thought there was
something in the hospital but I didn’t really hear well. I supported you despite not knowing what
secret you were hiding and I did it because I love you, Helena.”
Having finished
with weak-minded and insecure Hellie, Di then walks into the living room to
find Feisty lost in thought. All the
better to nag him over Abi once again. “—All
you managed to do was to drive my husband and her even closer together. In fact they are sleeping together. I caught her in his bed while he was taking a
bath!” “—You’ll have to help me drive them apart.” Not a chance. Your wife and your son and your
problem!! He asks her to keep her mouth
shut or at least to lower her voice. “—It’s
okay with me if they all hear me!! If
you’re going to drag me through the mud I will do the same. I’ve got no reason to protect your secrets
from my husband!” Of course, speak of the King of Rome and who should appear
wanting to know what secrets she’s talking about.
Lucio
finally arrives back home. Abi rudely gets
ready to leave him with Max and as he tries stopping her, she warns him to keep
his hands off her. He asks why she’s
always got to be so catty and rude around him.
All he wants to do is to thank her for going with him to the
treatment. He’d wanted to but Max wouldn’t
let him, he admits. “—I’m sure he’s got
his reasons!” she sneers at him as she walks out the door.
Hellie walks into the living room right behind
Mat. Instead of acting guilty as sin, Fausto artfully turns the tables on Mat telling Hellie and him that Mat had better not
take advantage of a decent young woman like Abi, especially under his
roof. He has no business as a married
man sleeping with her! Mat starts
snickering. “—You are telling me
that???!!! After hopping into bed with
everything in skirts your entire married life??? You who has admitted to having an affair with
my wife when we were dating???” At least
it wasn’t under Renata’s roof, says Feisty in his defense. Mat is quick on the uptake. NO, you simply were courteous enough to carry
on across the way at La Enramada, right my love?”
Di tells
him enough already! “--I will not allow
you to talk to me or this way! I swear I
have been completely faithful to you during our marriage. What do I have to do to convince you?” Mat tells her there’s not a thing in the
world that would do it for him now. There’s
no reason for you to console yourself in your mistress’s arms, she
continues. (Her tía must be smiling up
at her from Hell itself, Di’s acting is so flawless.) “—She is not my mistress!!” “—Oh, don’t tell me you did nothing but talk
all night long!” “—That’s exactly what
we did!” Feisty jumps in here and warns
Mat he’d better respect Abi or else! “—The
same goes for you! You’d better watch
what you do around her because I’m going to be watching you!” Mat and his Mama exit stage right.
Fausto
advises DeeDee to get her hubby and move the heck out of the hacienda or
else. Nothin’ doin’, spits back
Dee. “--You still haven’t begun to pay
for all the harm you’ve done me, Fausto!
And you know how I am going to collect?
I am going to make sure that that idiot Abigail is never going to get
it on with you! Never!!”
Upstairs in
Mat’s room, Hellie gives Mat The Talk about sleeping with a single girl. Mat plays The Troubled Teen and tries making
his mama understand that it was a harmless hug through the night and nothing
more happened. “--What the heck is wrong
since I’m going to marry her as soon as I get divorced.” And the two children? “--There’s a good chance they aren’t mine,
but if they are they will be taken care of their whole life long. But my kids or not, this marriage is at an
end!”
Hellie isn’t satisfied. She
continues defending Di’s supposed “luhhhhv” for him and he cannot understand
why she is. Hellie explains that we’ve
all made mistakes. Even I have. No, says Mat.
It’s not the same thing. She didn’t
cheat on one man while engaged to another!
It’s totally unforgivable! You
can defend her however you like, even though it’s going to break my heart. But there is no way I can ever stick it out
with a woman I despise as much as Diana!
And nothing and no one can ever make me change my mind!!
Naive Nieves and
Teo visit Diego in prison. (Yawn.
FF>>FF>>)
Lucio
worries over Max. He tries encouraging
him to make another play for Abi but Max nixes that in the bud. Lucio and he discuss selling the jewels for
his therapy rather than him doing any more “jobs” for Fausto. Lucio promises only one more and then nothing
else and Max won’t have to use his mama’s jewelry. But no, it doesn’t involve killing anybody
this time. (Some good news for a change. Right
Maxie?)
Abi
remembers Mac’s sob story making her believe that Fausto is her father and that he despised her because she was a maid’s illegitimate daughter. Fausto joins Abi in the garden and scolds her
for sleeping with Mat. She tells him it’s
her business. She’s a big girl now and
she’s not sorry about anything since nothing happened. He asks her what her feelings are for Mateo
but she refuses to discuss it with him. Rather,
she wants to know what Feisty feels
for her. (Ruh-Rohhhhhh!!!!!)
