La Sombra del Pasado #94 - Fri 6/26 - Stakes are raised
That's right, Dominga helped the Padre find a document to use to forge Sev's signature. And if they want to turn her into the cops, fine. And if they want to fire them BOTH, fine…and if not, Dominga quits. Mel says they can't work for people who would go after a priest just for telling the truth. Sev calls them dogs, biting the hand that feeds them. He tells them to be grateful he's not going to go after them legally, but he wants them gone first thing tomorrow and he never wants them to set foot on "his" hacienda ever again. Cande and Dominga share a tearful glance before Domina and Melesio leave Sev's office.
Don Antonio has set Em up in what, to Em, is a palatial suite. Don Antonio wants Em and Solitario working with a trainer ASAP. Sure, Em rides well, and Solitario is gorgeous, but it's been mostly talent so far. What Em needs is technique so he can keep improving before he starts competing against more experienced riders.
Severiano promotes Jacinto and tells him Melesio is fired "por metiche" (because he's a meddler) and he and his wife are outta there for being "malagradecidos" (ungrateful). And BTW, Jacinto's salary won't be going up, at least not until he proves he can handle the job. Oddly, Jacinto doesn't get the hint that that was a dismissal, and that's because he has important news to deliver to Sev--"Um…a bunch of the guys came by this morning and, uh…they quit." I had to pause to laugh for several moments, 'cause that was just so delicious. And then I had to do a fake screencap because I'd paused it on such a great facial expression of Alexis Ayala's.
They what?!

Lo Imperdonable #30 Special Post - Two Unedited Clips from Final Sequence
Hi All,
Please be sure to read Mauricio's wonderful recap of Lo Imperdonable's Episode 30, which is posted immediately below this special post.
We wanted to include these unedited scenes within Mauricio's own recap post, but alas after much effort to upload one single 5-minute clip of the entire waterfall sequence to a new Dailymotion channel, it was soundly rejected. The single clip also exceeded Caray's size limit for videos. So, I opted to only include here the (ahem) "horizontal" parts of Martin and Veronica's "Waterfall Rendezvous at Sunrise".

Lo Imperdonable #30 Fri 6/26/15 Love By The Waterfall
Veronica and Martin are kissing passionately unaware that they have a group of children as their audience. The children applaud at them. Veronica wants to go inside so Martin can rest and get his stitches changed. Martin jokes around that he wants to thank their audience. This is the Martin that Veronica loves - the one who laughs, loves, and makes jokes. The kids ask the lovebirds for a birdie kiss and the two lovebirds comply to the children's wishes and give each other a peck on the lips.
Botel consoles Magdalena at the cemetery and asks her the stupidest question of the century. Is she feeling a little better? Magdalena stands up and yells at him that she can't feel better. In fact, she'll NEVER be able to be happy. She kneels down on the supposed grave of her deceased daughter and grief stricken she says that her daughter is dead.
At the hovel, Veronica sends Martin off to bed while she gets the supplies needed to change his stitches. Before doing as told, Martin has a chat with Nanciyaga. “Patron esta contento, pareciera que por herida se fue mala sangre” (Boss is happy, it seems as if the bad blood came out from the wound). Looking behind him, Martin asks Nanciyaga if that is what she thinks. “Eso sabe Nanciyaga, igual y no era tormenta lo que veia si no vientos que cambiaron para otro rumbo” (That’s what Nanciyaga knows, perhaps it wasn’t a storm what she saw and instead it was winds that changed direction). Martin asks her if she really does see beyond … (he mumbled something I could not get). Nanciyaga tells Martin that she talks to spirits when it’s noche nueva (nighttime) and there is no moon. They come and tell her things that she can’t say unless it’s necessary. He asks her if the dove is a message from his brother. She tells him that doves bring peace and are of light. He doesn’t know why he’s even asking her this since he doesn’t believe in these things. She tells him that he doesn’t have to believe since the signals present themselves anyway. He asks her if this is a good sign and she replies that it is but to not be so trustworthy. She leaves as Veronica comes back with the supplies in hand. He stares at Veronica and thanks her for giving him the opportunity to save their marriage. She kisses him. The two head for the bedroom.

Amores con Trampa #65 ...some planned invitees to the store opening, some not so planned invitees making plans to go)... and a nightmare from the past is coming back, Facu!!
Refritos: Santee comes in Estefi’s apartment and is outraged
at finding his wife’s furniture there.
He starts word-slamming down Estefi that she is a nobody, has nothing! Just
a leach dressed as waiter.
He says he will get her out of his apartment.
New:
Beto confirms to Rocio that it was Hilda who got a ‘brebage’
into her drink. Rocio laughs it off, still not quite believing or giving the ‘witchcraft’
credit. She swears she will love Beto no matter what witchcraft is thrown her
way. Beto says he wants to marry her
ASAP… he gets momentarily scared that the witchcraft worked and she does not
want to marry him anymore… Nah! Let’s do it!
At Carmonas dinner table, everyone seems a bit more up in
spirits… However, Maria stands up fairly quickly… Carmen tries to play
peacemaker… Maria says she just wants to concentrate on her store. Beto comes in. He says will spend the day tomorrow with
Rocio. Facu does not feel that is proper… but Beto says he will spend more time
with Rocio from now on… wait for it… wait for it… he proposed to Rocio!!.. All
the Carmonas suddenly are speechless, frozen in time.
At the Velasco living room, Santee seems a bit entertained
at Isabel’s bad mouthing the ‘gorditos’ relatives of the Carmonas. Santee starts getting slimy around her neck
and she seems to not really enjoy it. Santee wants to roll in the sheets. Wants her to warm him up… she says not even
burning the furniture. He keeps staring
at her and breathing hard… mentions something about a police investigation.
Beto and his parents argue about his getting engaged to
Rocio. He doesn’t get why they let him
date her if they are not ok with him marrying her. The parents angrily say they
don’t want to become related to the VElascos.
Facu angrily rants at Beto that he expected Beto to protect his
kids/family, not to go roll in the hay with that girl. Facu throws Beto out. Beto says if you think you
will stop me from marrying Rocio just because you kick me out to the curb, you
are sooooo wrong.
In their bedroom, Facu is scared they just lost Beto for
good. Maria rants at him for treating Beto like that. She argues ‘if you had been tougher on him
from the get go like I was this would not have happened!’ Facu does not want to argue. Maria just
leaves the room. Facu is upset that all
his matchmaking efforts are splitting up the people he wanted to get close to
each other.

La Sombra del Pasado, Capítulo 93, 2015: Ok, so this is happening…Or not. aka Say what?!
Recap courtesy of HellaShelle
”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 #29 Thu 6/25/15 Everybody has a grave to visit
Martin has his almost “Visit the grave and
complain” scene. This time he admits that he loves Veronica, so he needs to
make a decision. But what will that be? To some ominous choir music, he explains
that he doesn’t want to let Dim down, but he can’t take it anymore. Could his
bro send him a sign, show him what he should do?
The monologue finished, he calls for
Lorenzo to come help him. Lorenzo thinks that the dead always send messages, at
least that’s what Nancyaga says. Dim was a good man, he will send some help
from up above.
And there flies a white dove, settling on
Dim’s cross, which makes an impression on Lorenzo. Martin is not sure if he
believes in these kind of things, though (this, after he just asks his brother
for a sign – Dim and Dimmer).
Magda tells Jorge that she came to see
Salma, but since she’s away, she will leave now. He offers to give her a ride
in his car and forget about taking a cab the next time she wants to visit – she
can call and he will send his driver for her. As the two leave, Matilde is left
shaken to the core by her earlier talk with Magda about Vero.
Joaquin comes to search for Martin and
tells Vero that the miners are doing better now. She doesn’t know where her
husband is, but does he know where Dim’s tomb is? Could he take her to it?
Joaquin really doesn’t want to, the padrecito might get upset with him. Vero
doesn’t see why that would happen and she doesn’t care if the cemetery is far,
Joaquin could just show her the way and then go about his business. He
reluctantly agrees and they go on their way, unaware that Nancy is watching
them.

Que Te Perdone Dios #112 – Babies, Fathers, Weddings and Lucio 2.0
Fausto confronts Renata and Ex-Crazy Con at The Hacienda and
says he will never grant Ren a divorce. He threatens to tell Abigail the truth
about who’s her mommy, and Renata acts like she will stand strong and let the
truth be heard. This is messed up, because there have been many good reasons
and opportunities to tell Abi the truth over the decades, and the one that finally
moves Ren is that if she lets Fausto tell Abi the truth, then Fausto has
nothing with which to impede the divorce, and Ren can marry Pat. The whole guardando la verdad de Abi has been in Ren’s self-interest most of the
time.
Simona has summoned Comandante Barragan because Toño was
missing all night. She tells him that the night that Lucio was killed, Toño
came home drunk and said… Enter Lucio reincarnated! It's like he’s not really dead! Toño
has assumed Lucio’s position as capataz,
assumed his home, and most assuredly assumed his wardrobe. All that is left is
for Toño to be rude and make some hand gestures like Lucio and the transformation
into 2.0 will be complete. Toño obliges. He’s doing all this for Simona, to pay
off her debt, to protect her and because he is a MAN. He tries to act
godfather-ish with voice modulation and creepy kisses, but Toño as the latest
bad dude in town is not completely convincing. Not like his predecessor was.

Que Te Perdone Dios - KarmaGeddon knocks tight even for God's favorites
Hello today (Even if this is not a Weekend discussion and it wouldn't merit because the show is not popular enough) I would like to create a special post , a post we all have awaited. We were always taught to be merciful to the bad guys even if the villains were possessive hot machos, the women were mostly not evil manipulating mothers which annoyed us to no end. But sometimes the villains do not teach us much heck they don't teach us anything ( Except to never forget keeping the shrinks our shrinks not shrimps) , they make us hate them and hate them until we only wish upon their demise. Such are the lunatics in our favorite dark,terror,brainless and you just gotta they have an untold amount of luck but soon their's about to run out or it already has.

Lo Imperdonable #28 Wed 6/24/15 "Everyone (including Martin) Tries to Figure Out If He Is Crazy.....Or Perhaps Just Crazy In Love"
(some scenes are combined)
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 #92 - Wed 6/24 - All…uh…some?...hmmm... A little bit is revealed
Padre J clarifies that what Lulu is passing out are the results of a test performed using blood samples from Severiano and Aldonza that proves that they are not related…and therefore that Aldonza and Cris are not related by blood…and therefore, there's no reason they shouldn't be married. So he advises the two families to make their peace, because this is God's will. Sev threatens Padre J, in front of all those witnesses, that he'll make them pay! Aldonza starts looking around for Cris.
He's on a bus, thinking that she'll always be the love of his life, even if she is his sister.

Lo Imperdonable #27 Tue 6/23/15 Manuel needs an anvil
Telenovela Death Watch 2015:
Cresencio is still alive (boo, hiss)
Manuel, also still alive- what does a recapper have to sacrifice to the gods to get them to kill these two off? Goats, cats, virgins? Where am I going to find one of those in Los Angeles? Sorry, I got distracted, and now your recap!
Veronica wakes up to find Claudia sitting in her bedroom like a creeper, she's rubbing Martins feet and this dos not sit well with Veronica, and can anyone blame her? Claudia explains that she found out about Martin being injured and that she came to help (oh do you have a medical degree missy?). Veronica tells her there's nothing Claudia can do there and if she really wants to help she should go to the church to look after the injured men, they need all the help they can get.
Vero gets out of bed and Nanci makes her a juice to help her get her strength back, Vero wants to know where the doctor is and is told that he went to get something to drink to freshen up, it turns out he also took the time to take a shower because he is headed to the church to help. Veronica looks at Claudia and says "I guess you're going with them to help, right?"- ah what a nice way to say "get the hell out of my house you skank". Claudia reluctantly says that yes, she will be going to help at the church, once she leaves Nanci tells Veronica that the perfumed lady (Claudia) holds things in her heart. Then she says she's going to make Vero and Martin a soup so that they can get better.

La Sombra del Pasado, Capítulo 91, 06/23/2015: Everyone’s got a lost love
Recap courtesy of HellaShelle
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
Hello my patio peeps! Below you will find your Monday night recap-please do not discuss the previews!
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.]
~~~~~~
Maria Dolores is a beautiful young woman of small means and greatly idealistic. She is also a contender and has the strength to get ahead when faced with adversity. She is a seamstress who exists within a sphere in which men surround her. (We, fortunately, can expect at least one or two will be a rotten lowlife.) With her job, Maria Dolores supports her mother, Esperanza, herself, and her sister, Clara. Maria Dolores’s boyfriend is Daniel. His life, however, is not a bed of roses. Daniel turns out to be rich, but is passing himself off as a poor man in order not to feel ashamed in light of his social class and above all, his mother, Ursula, who’s the matriarch of the Santibáñez family and prejudiced against the poor. (Grrrrrrr!) Ursula’s children, Daniel and Maleny, were trained to inveigle and maneuver rich people, the first being designer Ivana Duval, heiress and owner of a large (and no doubt successful) company; the second is Max Bustamonte, an attorney, who follows the law to the letter. (Gotta love those straight arrows, frustratingly dense as they usually are.)

Lo Imperdonable #26 Mon 6/22/15 Schmalz, Blood and Cyanide.
Marty splits open like a piñata and it's all Vero's fault.
Over Veronica's protests, Crazy Marty insists on going to the church to talk to the miners. Somehow Lorenzo gets him there (a gentle horse is involved but the details are left to our imagination). Marty limps inside, clutching at the wound in his belly. He tells the sick men that a doctor is on the way, and he promises to keep paying them their wages while they are recovering.
Again ignoring Vero's warnings, Marty pushes on to the mine, where he meets up with Crescencio and Joaquín. He has figured out the best way to repair the cyanide leak and will supervise the work.

Some scenes combined and condensed.
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.
