Lo Imperdonable #20 Fri 6/12/15 When The Town Doctor Leaves Town, The Town Priest Will Take Over

* Some scenes have been combined to help the recap flow better. 

Marital Problems 

Our lovebirds are having yet another spat, this time because Martin thinks Veronica wants to send a note home complaining about the terrible time she's having in Mina Escondida. He tells her to go ahead and leave if she wishes but if she does then she can't come back. Veronica isn't up for yet another argument with him nor does have time for one. She wants to send a note to thank her family for having sent over a suitcase with Pablo and to let them know she's doing fine. She assures him that HIS attitude makes her want to rush out of there but she won't leave because she loves him and vowed to be with him through the good and bad times. She won't leave until she finds out what the hell is his problem. She storms out of the hovel. 

Now alone, Martin is tired of this situation and gives a big sigh, and tells himself that he should have never brought Veronica to Mina Escondida because he'll never able able to make her happy. 

Motherly Instinct 

The gold has been packed in these HUGE boxes and Botel is asking Uspin for discretion. But I'm not sure how that's possible since the HUGE boxes are sure to catch the attention of just about anyone. Whatever. 

Anyway, Magdalena is awaiting to see if Veronica will show up with a note for her family. Botel doesn't think she should be trusting Veronica so much. At least not until she's sure Veronica is a good person. Magdalena doesn't give a crap what Martin thinks. For her - Veronica is a good person. Botel assumes Magdalena feels this way because Magdalena sees in Veronica a possible image of her own daughter. He advises her NOT follow her motherly instinct. ShutUpBotel.

Weekend Discussion: Love -- Reality or Poetic Delusion?




I actually know a few people who don't think love exists at all.  Some of them had highly toxic parents and a couple of them have had disappointing love lives (one I suspect never had one).  A few other people I know are so confounded by differences between men and women they refuse to believe it is possible to understand the other at all.  It's possible that they are too lazy to try.

Que Te Perdone Dios Capitulo 103- Highlights

I am putting up the highlights of yesterday's episode :



  • 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:
  • 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?
The  Longer Version (Some scenes combined.)
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.

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.

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.
