Yo No Creo En Los Hombres Capítulo 13 Thurs 07-30-2015 Will someone PLEASE tell MD what's going on?
Alma visits Max
and Claudio at the office. She’s surprised to see Isela there. Claudio explains
that Isela told him where Leo was, so she’s proven twice that he can trust her.
Alma wants to know if he will help Honoria deal with Julian’s case. Max notes
that his dad can’t really help because, as a judge, he has to remain impartial.
Weekend Discussion: Karmageddon Comes to Santa Lucia (La Sombra del Pasado)
We're
coming close to the end and the crap is flying so here is the
all-important discussion of the Karmageddons awaiting the evil ones
in our story. As usual we will ask the following two questions:
What
do you think the writers will do to them?
What
do you think they really deserve?
Contrary to my usual practice I am posting my thoughts in this article because of my current computer issues.
La Sombra del Pasado #117(US, Mx 120) 7/30/15 I suck at titles
Felt like word salad to me tonight. It's probably must me.
Aldonza vows to find out the truth about her father's death.
The search party that looks a little bit like a possee looks for Em. Mudo finds Em's shirt draped on a branch.
Candela whines because Cris is not at her side. He cares more about Em than he cares about meeee!
Ren tells Aldonza that it's going to be hard to solve Ray's death and prove who did it. It's been years. And if she's going to accuse Sev, she might want to have some proof.
Em is passed out near the waterfall at El Santuario. I wonder if there are any outtakes from this scene. I bet they're funny.
I'm filling in for LatinaInMd today with a quick and dirty rundown of last night's events. Latina should be back here next week. Yay!
The police come to the cantina (the same ones who had previously locked Manny in the Cave Jail) and Ireri tells them Manuel has been up to his old tricks. Inexplicably, they don't arrest him. Nor does Ireri want them to.
On the phone, Ginny tells Dr. F that the pregnancy test was negative. He's sad. She rolls her eyes.
Dr. F tells Ginny that Vero is awake, had a terrible fight with Marty and wants to go back to Mexico. Ginny tells him to do whatever it takes to keep her in Mina Escondida – even if what he does ends up killing her.
Despite Marty's vehement protests, Vero accepts Pierre's invitation to convalesce in his hotel. Unlike Claudia, she insists on paying for the room. Pierre tells Marty that he is no longer included in the invitation. Marty acts like a jealous ass. (How the actors kept from giggling during this scene, I don't know.)
Yo No Creo En Los Hombres Capitulo 12 Wed 7/29/15 The Clown seaps his glory
(Some scenes were merged out of context. .)
Hon goes to the hospital to check up on Vermin pleading for him to wake up in order to save their son from jailtime and bullies. Vermin suddenly does wake up and the doctor says that he will be ready to testify in a few days. ( You know it kind of sucks when an alcoholic has to save you from a mess)
Appearently Dan called Victor( The crooked lawyer) who told him that only the family can visit him now. Dan chastises MD for not telling the lawyer that Julian got beat up. MD is angry that Max got in between Leo & Clara but Dan advises MD to make Clara dump Leo otherwise Julian wont be the only one to end up in jail. His parents would not accept Clara anyway.
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.
