La Sombra del Pasado #116 (Mx 119) - Wed 7/29 - The more things change, the more they stay the same
Melesio agrees to try to get Cris to come outside, but it's going to be difficult if he's with Cande. In the meantime, Aldonza and Don Camilo need to stay hidden. Jacinto walks them off to one side.
Sev lays the guilt on thick, saying he's going upstairs to check on Cande and Cris should stay put because she needs him. And then, for some unknown reason, he heads outside and drives off in the truck, never noticing Aldonza, Jacinto, and Don Camilo lurking by a tree.
My boss is out of town again and work caught up with me this morning, I'll have a recap for you all much later today...I've yet to see the episode and my phone is out of battery, I'll be back as soon as I can!
Yo No Creo En Los Hombres #11 Tue 7/28/15 Five SidesTo Every Story
Max grimaces during the little celebration for Ivana and Daniel’s engagement.
That night Danny gripe at Mama Ursula for planning the whole thing and insisting on an engagement complete with the ring that she went out and bought herself for him to use. (Better bite it to see if it’s real.) Mama gripes at him for bringing the guttersnipe social climbing wannabe to their place to screw her. “—That is the problem! You interrupted me before I could!” Maleny asks why he told Max what a lying, thieving tramp she was. He tells Mal that it was the best way to protect both of them and their plans since it was obvious Max was interested in her. Mama wants the Maria Deloris business over and done with. Not gonna happen, says Danny Boy. In fact, Mama is going to help him get her into bed with him or else!
Meanwhile, Clara asks MD why Dan didn’t show up at Rudolfo’s funeral. "--Why he was arranging for the money to help Julian and then his boss had him stay at the manse with her and their guests the entire weekend." Leo asks why Dan didn’t want her talking to his brother. MD turns the table on him and says it was his brother who told her today he didn’t want anything to do with her. (Yeah, but that conveniently avoids answering the original question: did Dan really tell you not to have anything to do with his brother!) Leo offers to intervene to clear up any misunderstandings but Mardi won’t allow it.

When bad things happen to bad people La Sombra Del Pasado #114 (Mx 116) 07/27/2015
Hi patio peeps, below is your Monday night recap, a big thank you to Kat, AKA best team leader EVER for putting up a recap last week!
We get some footage from Friday night's episode, mainly Aldi telling Humberto that she's the one that will be talking to E-man, he had several years to man up and never did, she's also not going to give him the opportunity to lie to E-man.
Aldonza leaves and Humberto asks Adelina how Aldi found out that E-man was her brother. Adelina spills: Aldi had her fathers remains exhumed so she could have him cremated and spread his ashes in ES, when they opened his coffin only his body was there, she then questioned everyone and connected the dots. Ade tells him that she even went to see Sev, and Humberto tells her that Sev is such a bastard that he would never admit to being E-mans father.
Last night the women claimed the spotlight. The men? Mere props. Supporting players in some cases, obstructing players in others. Verónica, Virginia and Magdalena were geographically apart but their stories were more intertwined than ever. Nanciyaga and Matilde were both responsible for saving a life, though Nanciyaga was a reluctant hero. (Even lightweight Ana Perla had a sweet, if parenthetical moment.) And the Virgin of Guadalupe was a featured guest star.
Verónica – ow!that hurts!
Nanciyaga has grudgingly worked her leafy magic; Vero awakens confused and in tremendous pain. Why does her leg hurt so much? And her head? Ay ay ay, what a killer headache! And what's that crap on her brow? Marty tells her about the fire and how she was hurt when a beam fell on her. She has a broken leg and a serious head injury. It was Nanciyaga who helped bring her back to consciousness. Dr. F couldn't tell them when – or even if – she would wake up.
Sometimes it just doesn't pay to get
up. Heat makes it worse, too. You can turn on a computer but you
can't always make it ovey your orders. Be back later with stuff to chew on.
– Dashiell Some, anyway. Here is the first third:
Chapter
10: Bad Feelings
Part 1
While
Fermin the Vermin was being hit by a getaway car, Maria Dolores was
fading fast. Daniel the Weasel had plied her with booze until she
was lying under him on the couch in the hunting cottage. He was the
hunter and she was his prey. A cell phone rang. Maria Dolores
recognized it as hers. It was Clara letting her know that Julian had
been arrested. He was accused of killing Rudolfo. She said not to
call Max and she would be right there. Daniel could not talk her out
of that. Thank Somebody.
The captions were off tonight, almost everyone was deep in the SBeC accent and my brain decided it didn't understand Spanish. I've recapped the first 30 minutes. I will finish it tomorrow when it's up on Hulu. The captions will hopefully be better.
There’s a rehash of Carmen taking down the casting information and Francis trying to goad her into a fight. Unfortunately, Carmen in unaware that Francis has removed the most important part of the poster. It’s a casting for models for a teeny weeny bikini line.
At the boutique, Maria tells Rocio that Fac is not the man she married. Rocio tells Maria that Beto told her about Maria left Florencio at the altar for Fac. Rocio asks Maria if she ever regretting leaving Florencio stranded at the altar. Maria gets uncomfortable and walks away. Both of them hear the bell announcing a customer. A man enters with a huge bouquet of roses. Maria thinks it’s Facundo, but it’s Florencio. He says “all these roses together cannot match the beauty of your face.” He hopes they can can at least make her ojitos de venado sparkle (I translate under duress because it sounds like crap in English: literally deer eyes. I guess I could go with doe eyes.)

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres #9 Fri 7/24/15 A Date with Fate and a Twisted Date
Parte 1~~
The
twist to the legal agreement, Maria Doloris and Isela learn, is that they lose
their jobs along with the old pervert, Jacinto.
MD gives the bad news to the rest of the women in the shop.
Meanwhile,
Esperanza learns of Julian’s gesture of offering to loan the money to Mardi for
the rental space to begin a seamstress/tailor shop and refuses it in her name.
Leo
mentions to Clara that it’s obvious that Julian has the hots for her big sis.
Josefa
fairly breathes down Isela’s neck as she makes a call to Max’s daddy, the Judge,
to whine about losing her job as part of the agreement.
MD is
working late that night on the dress for Ivana when Max drops by to give her a
bit of encouragement for the meeting the next day; she scolds him for accepting
terms she and Ise “would never have agreed to,” and he leaves with his tail
between his legs.
Lo Imperdonable #49 Fri 7/24/15 The one with the magical healing herbs
Hi. You get me again, for the third time this week, sorry mates! Anyhoo, I again kindly ask that you use a name so that we all know who we are talking to in the comments section, think about it, say you went to a dinner party and you're with a group of people you've never met, what's the first thing you would do? That's right, you'd introduce yourself. You don't have to use your real name, call yourselves whatever you'd like, I just want to know who is hanging out in the patio! And now your recap. Disclaimer: Events are NOT in order. Read more »
La Sombra del Pasado #113 (Mx 115) The Sombra begins to fade
Hola, mis amigos del Patio de la Sombra!Let’s dive right in!The episode felt staccato and that may be reflected
in the recap.
Adelina confesses her undying love for Aldonza’s father, the
late Raimundo Alcocer.Aldonza is
surprised and realizes this is the great secret Adelina spoke of some time
ago.Adelina still loves Ray because he
lives in her heart though she asks Aldonza to forgive her.It feels like such a sin to have been in love
with her own sister’s husband.Aldonza
thinks it is nothing of the sort and thinks her father would have been better
off with someone like Adelina.Aldonza
wants her to proudly display the picture but Adelina says no:it’s a torture for her.The dead should rest in peace.
Gonzalo has apparently confessed his tremendous two-day old
love for Flavia to Renato.Renato is
concerned that not only do they not have anything in common, but Flavia is not
legally divorced from her husband who is also a business partner of his (Renato’s)!Gonzalo thinks the pot is calling the kettle
black but Renato disagrees.Does
Flavia feel the same?She feels
something but she’s confused and trying to sort through her feelings about her
husband.Gonzalo throws the
Aldonza/Cris thing back in Renato’s face.Gonzalo is going to exercise his right to try to win Flavia’s heart so Renato
finally backs down as they realize they haven’t really greeted each other and
hug.
PJ counsels Jock that even if they get a divorce, in the
eyes of the Church, marriage cannot be dissolved!PJ says Jock should forgive Flavia, truly,
from the heart.
Tomas and his father discuss the trumped up assault charges Pru
brought against him.He swears it isn’t
true and they decide to consult Silvia.That way Pa can get a chance to meet this wonderful girl!
Cande has a fit over Cris’s torn shirt and learns he ripped
it in a fight with Renato over Aldonza.She has her tiring pissy fit which we, unfortunately, can see and hear
when we close our eyes.To Cande’s
screeched inquiry Cris answers, NO, he can’t get her out of his heart, much the
same way that she can’t get PJ out of hers.Cris leaves her to stew.
As is pointed out in the sidebar, feeds do not work in Chrome. As there are so many of us using Chrome, here are a couple of suggestions to get around that.
Amores con Trampa #84 Facu gets deceived by Santee, Esteban and Beto so he misses the meeting with the investors. Florencio arrives at MC. Rocio and Beto strengthen their love in front of Hilda and Francis
The Carmona kids and Alejandra and Andres playing with the
water and the hose. (was kind of cute Jacinto suggested playing without water
(just hoses) to not waste water.
Isabel finds Jacinto building a fence or cage for animals…
she asks if he will thank her for telling him what was happening (Beto and
Rocio were getting married)… Facu not so
sure it was for the best… Isa asks if he ranted on Maria (put her in her place)… Facu insists he does not want trouble or wars
with anyone… Isa keeps getting close to Facu… he suggests she go back home… Isa
tells him he can count on her for anything (and of course puts her hand on his
face just as Maria comes out of the house and catches them)… Maria acts all
proper/indifferent (you can keep him, I will give him to you for free)… Facu surprised and does not appreciate being
gifted around as if he were a box of candy…
Maria insists Isa can keep him… they keep going back and forth and Facu’s
cap blows… Maria leaves offended, Isa
pulls Facu back and asks him ‘if I do accept that ‘present’ what would happen?’ Facu is totally taken aback she is even
considering that possibility and runs in the house after Maria… Isa starts
feeding the goats… lol
Rocio is confronting Hilda for Beto… Rocio more than irritated and pushes Hilda
back and Hilda falls on a guy who drops his food… Rocio apologizes to the guy…
Beto begs Rocio not to get into fights with Hilda anymore… Hilda suggests Beto will end up with her, who
has no doubts or complications… Rocio
only came to the school to see Beto to tell him she loves him with all her
heart. She saw everything, so she has no doubts about him… no one will separate
them. She wants everyone to hear that no
one will separate them. She has a heart necklace to give him which reflects her
heart that she gives to him. Love you .
Will love you always. (sealed with a
kiss)… Hilda suddenly feels very out of place or the odd man out. Frances and her shadowgirls are there to
witness the scene… Frances starts whinning that she does not know when the
exclusive college became a neighborhood taqueria. Carmen also comes in. Rocio
leaves and Beto goes on to class.
At office, Esteban wants Santee to sign some docs. Santee
says he won’t be fooled twice, he will read the documents very carefully before
signing. Esteban asks him not to get in
trouble by doubting Facu. Santee starts namecalling Facu (charro montaperros). And
undermines the business savvy of Facu’s.
Then he starts talking about women when he looks at the Isa photo
frame. Then talks about Estefani and her
flirting… and then Mireya with her ‘confusions’… but all that is over… Now all
his efforts are aimed at the ranchero (Facu). And to recover what was his. He expects Esteban to help him. Esteban not
so sure.
Yo No Creo En Los Hombres Capítulo 8 Thurs 07-23-2015
Not one to be ruffled by the
appearance of the person she and her horrible spawn were just bashing, Úrsula
breezes over to dear Susy. She promises to scold the butler for not telling
them she was there and Susy notes that he didn’t offer her anything to drink
either. Ah, well, no matter they must get going. Max’s mom, Alma is waiting for
them to pick her up. Maleny and Úrsula nervously follow her out to the car.
Lo Imperdonable #48 Thu 7/23/15 The one where EXPLOSIVE stuff happens
Hello, everybody!
I had a very bad morning, probably the worst in ages, so I wasn't able to watch the show or write a recap as I had planned. I'm extremely sorry and ashamed, but these have been difficult days for me, as I received a couple of bad news and more might follow (friendly advice: never move to France - it will suck the life out of you and then, when you finally come out for air, it will suck some more).
The one VERY bright spot right now is that my baby is doing just fine, which is the only thing that truly matters, but all the rest is a mess, so I didn't have the heart to watch the show.
I am so very sorry to disappoint you all, especially after Eli's two stellar recaps (btw, Eli, great job yesterday, too, you bring it every single time - thank you so much for your hard work!).
Please, if you can, feel free to include whatever you want about last night's show in your comments and later on I might have the time to edit this post and add your stuff, too.
Now I have to go struggle with some French bureaucrats some more, as my day is only half over and who knows what will happen next. If only I had a gold mine somewhere deep in the Mexican nowhere land to go hide...
Adriana Noel
Later Edit:
Thank you so much, Vivi and Anon 09:48, for giving us the highlights of the episode. It seems like I lost quite an explosive show.
I will add them here, so that anyone who comes to the post later on, can find them faster. Read more »
The Legal Bits-Em's Case
Padre goes to see Emanuel. They talk about the robbery. Em says it was worth it to save Solitario's life. Padre waxes all kinds of dramatic. Fight the good fight! It's the biggest fight of your life and Sev is the biggest enemy. You aren't just fighting for yourself you're fighting for ALL the little people Sev has trod upon. God is on your side! You will win! At the end of the road you will find your origin and your destiny and you will find it mounted on your horse EL SOLITARIO!!
Emanuel gets sentenced to prison. They are going to transfer him to El Reclusorio Laa Vigas. I'm pretty sure the sentence said he would stay there an undetermined amount of time until the judge made a decision(?) Throughout the episode it was made clear that that was code for "he's probably not getting out any time soon." Slivia says they will get him out. Em knows he has no defense. Silvia and Pato are hoping that Em's wanting to save the horse's life will at least get him a reduced sentence.
