La Sombra del Pasado, Capítulo 93, 2015: Ok, so this is happening…Or not. aka Say what?!
”Short of It” at the end
The Long of It: Aldonza and Cris kiss it out and then sit because the man is using a cane. Cris tells Aldie he went to find Eman. He didn’t, but Eman won a competition, so yay. He found out about the sibling lie when he spoke to Dom. Aldie tells him they think his parents messed with the test he ordered, but they’re not sure.
Now that Silvia and Ren’s drama is on simmer, Pato has time to bring flowers to the ribbon shop. Irma’s glad he’s back because Lola’s a bit down. “Emmanuel?” “Emmanuel.” Pato’s ready to kick E’s delightful butt, but Irma tells him to slow his roll. It’s not worth it and the dude skipped town anyway. Irma’s totally Team Pato and Pato wants to take this thing with Lola all the way. He whispers his definition of that to Irma, who doesn’t slap him across the face, so it must be the other kind of “all the way.”
Lola is busy with Mari, reminding me of why I could cheerfully leave both of them on the side of the road. Mari starts by saying she’s put what Lola did behind her. Say what? Lola asks. She just came to talk, not to apologize. If anyone should be apologizing, it’s Mari. They go back and forth about who stole what kiss and what boyfriend and who’s jealous of who and, honestly, who even cares because they both need to go to the time out table and Mary needs to go to the time out therapy couch because she knows she’s a big ol’ lyin’ liar and she still—

Lo Imperdonable #28 Wed 6/24/15 "Everyone (including Martin) Tries to Figure Out If He Is Crazy.....Or Perhaps Just Crazy In Love"
Repeated Scene: Veronica storms out of the bedroom, then listens through the closed door as Claudia tries to pry from Martin details of his married life, telling him he knows she still loves him. He admits he and Veronica have problems, but only he can resolve them with Veronica. He tells Claudia she can't stay in his home. She says that wasn't her plan, but she has nowhere else to go. He offers to let her stay in their living room.
Lo Nuevo: NanC comes in and sees Veronica sitting in the living room and crying. She tells NanC she plans to sleep there. NanC offers her the second bedroom, since she prefers to sleep outside on the hammock. While NanC goes to prepare the extra room for Veronica, Claudia comes out of the marital bedroom. Veronica quickly wipes off her tears and tells her harshly that she took longer than expected to come to town to see Martin. She tells Claudia she always knew she loved Martin, but her shameless effrontery (descaro) surprises here. Claudia tells her she will always "be there" for Martin, even if he is married to Veronica. Veronica wonders if she will be his lover and reminds her he already has a wife, and if he didn't marry her before, well then why would he want to now. Claudia claims she is only there as Martin's friend and co-worker, and she has no place to go, but if it bothers Veronica for her to stay in the living room as Martin just offered her, then she will just return to the church. Veronica tells her to take the extra bedroom. Claudia tries to resist, but Veronica cuts her off and makes it clear that SHE is the "lady of the house" and what SHE says goes. Claudia says fine and tells Veronica that Martin wants to speak with her, then heads to the extra room.

La Sombra del Pasado, Capítulo 91, 06/23/2015: Everyone’s got a lost love
The Short of It: Cris and Aldi agree they should take some time apart. Eman actually tied for first place in the horse competition. Cande and PJ get everyone to PJ’s special reconciliation mass. Ren and Silvia don’t kiss, but they do make up. Silvia’s says she’s Team Ren now. Tomás and Pru meet at the church. Sev tries to assault Aldonza AGAIN! The Phantom Pain stops him. Joaquin finally sees Adelina again and lays a big kiss on her. Flavia confronts Adriano about being a murderer. Mari feels guilty. Irma’s worries about Mari and asks Lola to help. Everyone but Cris attends the mass…where PJ announces Cris and Aldonza are NOT siblings and hands out proof! Val passes out. Cris is already on a bus out of town.
The Long of it:Lost Love #1: Believed Incest Cris and Aldonza sit awkwardly in her living room. Aldonza prompts her husb…bro…Cris to talk. As much as he wanted to talk to her, the words won’t come. He just can’t see her as his sister. She feels the same. He apologizes for being so stubborn. If he had given up before, she wouldn’t be in such pain now. She says they were both stubborn. Cris thinks it would be best if they didn’t see each other for a while, at least until they get used to being siblings. Aldonza agrees. There’s nothing much more to say. He starts to stand and Aldonza helps him up. They’re kissably close and they both feel it. Aldonza moves to lead him to the door. She goes one way around the flower table, he follows around the other, but they’re magnets, so they meet again at the front landing step. They draw close…before they again remember that their love is forbidden now. Cris offers his hand for a handshake, but they just hold each other’s hand before slowly pulling away. Cris finally leaves and Aldonza leans against the door and cries.

Wife, free to good home La Sombra Del Pasado #90 06/22/15
Take my wife-please!
We get a replay of last Friday night's episode. Cristobal, having received the false DNA results calls Renato over to hand over his wife. Yep, cause that's how things are done in 2015. He tells Renato to take Aldonza and make her happy because he's not able to. Renato tries to argue and says that Aldonza does not love him, Cris won't take "no" for an answer. Renato must make Aldonza fall in love with him!
Dude, to quote the little old ladies from the Progressive commercial, that's not how it works, that's not how any of this works! He also tells Renato to rush the divorce and Ren tells him the process will take as long as it needs to, he's not going to speed it up. Cris makes Ren promise not to tell Aldonza that they met. In the hall Candela takes it all in. Her plan worked.

New Telenovela: Yo No Creo En Los Hombres/ I Have No Faith In Men
"Yo No Creo En Los Hombres/ I Have No Faith In Men" replaces Que Te Perdone Dios on July 13th and that's in the 10PM Eastern time slot. [FYI: it won 7 premios for acting and directing at the 2015 awards. So, although it is another in a long and seemingly endless list of refritos Univision chooses to serve up, this could be another diamond in the rough. Could be...... as a telenovela taken from a Caridad Bravo Adams novel (one of Martai and my favorites!) whose screenplay is written by Aída Guajardo (nominated for best screen adaptation). Some familiar and strong actors are in this one: Flavio Medina, Rosa María Bianchi, Azela Robinson, Alejandro Comacho for a few. Gabriel Soto and Adriana Louvier (Best Actress 2015 Premios) are the two leads in this one.]

Amores con trampa #61 and #62 6/22/15 and 6/23/15
El Refritito
Porfirio overhears Fac the human talking to Fac the horse. He says to himself "Oh Facundo. If only you knew how much your mother loved you. Ah well. The past is best left in the past. It's painful and we shouldn't think about it." (I really like Ignacio Lopez Tarso. Such a good actor.)
At the boutique
Abuela is making sure Rocio knows how much she dislikes Santiago. Maria is worried about Santi. Rocio is too. He takes a lot to heart and Rocio doesn't know how much longer he'll be able to take it.

Lo Imperdonable #25 Fri 6/19/15 Let's Rub Our Arms To Help Us Get Through This Mess
- The miners from both La Moreneita (Martin's mine) and La Perla (Crescencio's mine) both get intoxicated from drinking water contaminated with cyanide. This is due to Manuel the idiot not having changed the filter when he should have.
- Manuel is released from prison and Crescencio tells him about the conditions Martin put to forgive him. Oh and Manuel will sign and come with him to give Martin the document where Manuel promises to behave.
- Ana Perla was still upset with Pablo but the two end up kissing and making up. Pablo will go and break things off with Mariana when he gets the chance to go to the city.
- Emiliano is stressed at the office and Virginia (determined to turn him into an alcoholic because it'll be easier to dominate him) serves him a drink and tells him it'll make him feel better. He at first declines but ends up accepting it and chugs it down. He later serves himself another drink.
- Veronica finds out Demetrio is dead from Joaquin. She goes and asks Martin about it and Martin accuses her of having been Demetrio's lover. She denies and gets mad at him.
- Botel offers to compensate Dr. F really well with money if he replaces him in Mina Escondida for some time. Dr. F says he needs the money and will think about the proposal. For now he'll be in Mina Escondida for 15 days. Claudia shows up and Botel takes one good look at her and how she's dressed and tells her to ummm wear something a tad more comfortable for the trip.
- Virginia realizes how sending Claudia over to Mina Escondida wasn't such a good idea because she could cause problems between Martin and Veronica. Virginia says she has to do something about that.

Que Te Perdone Dios #108, Double Vision: Max Does A Double-Take of Ximena's Fake
Renata walks into Fausto’s bedroom and pretends not to see Diana and Fausto aiming pistols at each other. To Fausto’s credit he doesn’t lie about Di being there. Ren asks her what the heck she’s doing in her hubby’s bedroom. Di says she’s there asking why Mateo hasn’t gotten home yet. (Yeah, like why not just go downstairs and ask the staff, or anybody else in the common areas of the house, right?) Di and Feisty lie about her leaving the room to rest up in her most delicate condition and then hiding in the corner with the gun still aimed at him.
Ren plays blind and dumb and leaves. However, once she gets back to her own bedroom she’s impactada at the sight of the two of them wanting to obliterate each other and wonders if they’re still lovers or what.
Back in draw-down central, Feisty’s fractious doxie of a daughter-in-law gets dissed once again. “—You should never have survived our accident. You ought to be in Hell about now.” “—Yeah, but the Devil left me alive to get rid of you for him.” “—Don’t you know you can’t harm me?” she tries shooting him in the foot but the revolver is empty, just like Fausto had warned her it would be. “—There’s not a person born who can get the better of me!” he informs her. She gives up—but not in. “--And? Now what?” He’s not going to bother killing her, especially not in his house, dirtying up his room. She claims he’s just a pitiful wuss. He slaps the crap out of her and then moves in on her; they launch into hot and heavy tongue swallowing. (I honestly don’t know how these two actors manage not to break up into uncontrollable giggles and guffaws after a scene like this…..)
