La Sombra del Pasado, Capítulo 130 (Mx 133): Little Ironies in the Night


You guys, it's been a pleasure. I've had such a great time recapping Sombra, I'm sorry to see it end. I want to thank the rest of the AMAZING recap team and everyone who sat on the Naughty Melon's patio for making my first recapping experience so awesome. For all of those reasons, and for all it's ridiculousness, I'm gonna miss this TN. On to the cap! (I'll edit later)


The Short of It: Everyone treads water as they find out Hum’s condition (not good). Sev takes expected advantage/action while Hum’s alone in the hospital. Pru and Val try to flee the cops. Also, Joaq tells Flavia he wants a divorce.

Lo Imperdonable #65 Mon 8/17/15 You oughta be in pictures!


In which:
Disgusting Aaron exchanges fire with a cop.  Both are wounded and Aaron gets away.  More vindictive than ever, he vows to kill Vero.
Poor sick Ginny seems to have Emi where she wants him... or does she?
Marty seems to have Vero where he wants her... or does he?
It's movie night in Mina Escondida – pass the popcorn!
And Nanciyaga STILL doesn't get it.


Jumping right in with the new stuff –

In Mexico City, the police send for reinforcements in the hopes of catching Disgusting Aaron (thanks, Mauricio!) when he comes looking for Magdalena at the hotel.  

In Mina Escondida, Blanquita, Polo and Matilde join the picnickers.  There are smiling introductions and hugs all around.  Vero scratches inside her cast with a knitting needle – the itching is driving her nuts. (The knitting needle is getting so much play that I'm starting to believe it's part of the plot, like maybe Vero uses it to stab Manny in the eye the next time he drags his knuckles onto the screen.)

Sometimes the truth can set one free. Right now it's just taking its time.

Chapter 25: Damage Control

An unseen assailant knocked out the bricks holding up the car Leo was working under. He shouted out in pain when the car fell on him.

Ivana now had to deal with her meddling aunt. She told her that Maria Dolores said that Daniel had no money. She demanded to know what Susana knew. Susana took an “I told you so” attitude and said she had proof. She played back the recording she made of the conversation with Úrsula in which she had called her out on their nouvelle probresse.

Amores con trampa #100 and #101 Monday and Tuesday 8/17 and 8/18

We had a Susana and a Margarito sighting tonight! Margarito has gotten pleasantly plump and Susana is still with the fists at the ready...just like Fac. I think that may have been the funniest fight scene I've ever seen.

Well, played show. You totally psyched me out! That whole scene with Conchita finding the envelope behind the painting of the Last Supper was a DREAM!!! Porfirio wakes up from his nightmare screaming “You found my secret!!” What could it be?

Isa catches herself singing the theme to AI3! Just like me! She sends Peloncha out to get the newspaper. Peloncha grumbles about how old fashioned it is to read the paper. People use their tablets these days. She looks up to see Porfirio. She’s afraid and prays that God take her away...but not to Saint Peter. Porfirio gets flirty. Peloncha intones “cruz cruz cruz que se vaya el diablo y que venga Jesús” (May the devil begone and Jesus come!) Conchita makes her way to the hedges...and she is not happy that Peloncha seems to be busting moves on her “territory.” Porfirio asks Peloncha if she’d like to make him a good hard-boiled egg. Cochita flounces away with Porfirio following.

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres Cap 24, Fri August 14, 2015- Maria Dolores and Ivana Get Their Daniel is Wakeup Call; But Will They Hang Up on the Loser?


~~Recapped by JDesdeNYC~~
Scenes combined so as to not annoy the recapper and reader

To Tell the Truth

Susana tells an incredulous Gerry that Daniel has threatened to throw her out of Ivana’s house after he and Ivana marry. Susana says she has to play both sides; while she will continue to pretend to support the Dan-Ivana marriage to Dan’s face, she thinks it makes no sense for Ivana to marry that worm and find out later he fooled her. Gerry still plays the “they should marry for the sake of the baby” card and Ivana shows up. Susana leaves and Gerry finally breaks it to Ivana that Maria Dolores wasn’t some “fling” (aventura) for Daniel.  Gerry saw MD come to the hospital, where Ivana was interned during her miscarriage scare, in her wedding gown looking for Daniel. Cara de impactada de Ivana.

Josefa still is angry and hateful towards Isela asking why she confirmed Honoria’s suspicion that she is messing around with Claudio.  Josefa plans to get rid of Orlando once and for all so Isela can focus on the “Get Claudio” mission.

The Lying Santibanez Come to Blows

Alma reminds Claudio of his responsibility to the Santibanez family, as a close friend of the dead Daddy Santibanez, so he can take care of the Maleny/Dan abuse situation privately. Speaking of the devil Dan and Maleny argue about Max insisting on reporting Dan to the police.  Maleny says of course she won’t report him but Dan insists Ari clarify and retract to Max that Dan physically abuses his sister.  Maleny says Ari can’t do that and neither will Max believe her if she says the accusation is false.  Mal says MD is going to run into Max’s arms as MD will not return to Dan after all the lies he has told.  Dan says he’ll get MD back by telling her Mal was the one who got the fake judge for the civil wedding ceremony.  An outraged Mal grabs Dan’s face and tells him no way she’ll allow Dan to lie on her like that.  She will tell MD the whole truth because if Max leaves her, Dan won’t get to be with Maria Dolores. The siblings push and shove with Dan eventually actually abusing Maleny.  The avenging Max sees the abuse firsthand and Dan only stops after Max sucker punches him. Max insists that Mal reports Dan to the police.

Vero now understands Nanci's reason for calling her la mala mujer. Nanci must also believe that Vero was the slut who had been with both brothers. Vero is really angry now and orders Nanci not to get near her or her hubby again. Then she turns to Marty and demands that he put Nanci in her place or she won't have her (Vero) around anymore. She then storms off on her crutches. 

Marty turns to Nanci and yells at her for going around saying that she loves him. Nanci tries to hug him and tells him that it's true that she does love him. But Marty backs off and tells Nanci that he loves his wife. Nanci says that what she says is true. The patron is still keeping secrets that when they come to light will separate him from Vero.

Why, if you weren't a woman I'd. . . .! La Sombra del Pasado #128 (Mex 131) Friday, 8-14-15


Good evening, good morning, good afternoon wherever you are my beloved Sombra Patio Peeps!  Let’s jump right in!

We get another view of that beautiful, candle-lit farewell to Padre Jeronimo.  We are up close and personal with all the misty eyes bathed in the soft glow of tens of votives , warm embraces and a view from above as the crowd gently parts as Padre walks amidst them and takes his leave. 

Right away we see what the evil lackey, Javier is up to:  he’s going to damage a gate holding back the waters of the huerta’s reservoir, flooding it and wasting this precious resource!  Uuuuuf!

Humberto has returned home after his conversation with Cris and confronts Valeria about her monumental lie that Cris is the father of her fetus.  Hum shouts his outrage and shame at her actions and, of course, Val tries to play the offended one!  She’s so tired of his complaints!  He never has anything positive to say to her!  How in the hell can he when she is always talking nonsense!  He can’t understand how she could lay with that good for nothing Abelardo!  Well, Pru protests Val needed some comfort after Cris dumped her and Val tells her to shut up because she (Pru) is to blame for all this.  It goes on from there but Hum manages to yell at Val that for once in her life she needs to take responsibility for her own acts though Pru IS guilty of covering for her all her life and he’s sure Pru knew about this!  Val yells back if he wants to help her he should tell her how to get rid of this g.d. kid.  Oh no, she’s going to have the baby and HE’s going to see to it!  Pru looks on with eyes as huge as those figures in the sad sack/endearing paintings from the 60s.

Amores con Trampa #99 Porfirio's ghosts are closin in on him... and Carmen needs to get off the see saw.

 
Refritos: Facu offers to Santee to sell him the stock now… or you are screwed up for good.

Mysterious woman talks on phone with Frankee… asks him how is the investigation going. He is about to leave San Bartolo el Chico but the Samarripa cousins are making it a bit rough. She remembers them. And gives him advice to watch his wallet.  She insists he needs to find Porfirio Carmona.

Meanwhile Porfirio tells Conchita that he has only truly loved one woman… his wife…  he has kept on living with the hope to someday reunite with her… his wife was everything to him. The only woman he has truly truly truly truly loved.   (seems even the rooster is tired of hearing him say the same line).

Lo Nuevo:

Santee and Isa atrive home to see Felipe on a really-fun-looking electric one-wheeler. They all talk that Santee just sold his stock in the company to Facu… Isa is ok considering they can live on the money he just got until the new company he is starting is operational. He whiles a bit about bureocracy and government being real slow in Mex for these things… (I have a feeling he has some other thing that is worrying him).

At Carmonas, Porfirio is dusting his last supper painting. Perpetua comes by and notices he is not hugry even for her boiled eggs.  He is acting strange and she knows it Maria comes by and Perpetua tells her about her concern about Porfirio. He is acting strange.  Maria undermines what Perpetua is saying. Perp wants to call the doctor.

Isa talks to Santee, she is talking a bit of nonsense, even tells him he should go find a job (yeah right, it will rain upwards before that, Isa) He talks about all the expenses and all the things she wants that cost money, even a lipo. 

At the gym, Estefi comes in. the trainer with beard talks to her, is a bit cold with her. Not a good day to get on her back.  She whines about Perpetua constantly scrutinizing her.  Estefi assures the guy that Perpetua might be smart but not as smart as her.  In comes the other woman and Estefi is running away from her and putting the guy in the middle. (not sure who this woman is but seems estefi owes her money or has tricked her into something, sorry have not watched much this week). 

At office, Felipe wants to talk to Facu about something, Facu has to poke him a bit before he opens his mouth.  Felipe finally does.  Wants permission to miss work, the end of year dance is coming up at the college.  Facu wants to hear more.  It seems there is some kind of king/queen of the dance contest where the winners can win grants/scholarships to go to  college overseas.

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres, Capitulo 23, Thu 08-13-2015: Dance of the Rat Fink

Quick refrito: MD almost swoons into Julian’s arms after he tells her her marriage license isn’t real.

Lo Nuevo: Ari catches up Maleny as she drives her sporty convertible out of the hotel. He’s freaking out a little because her mom caught them together. She’s annoyed because he’s more worried about losing his job than about their relationship ending, but tells him not to freak--her mom has no idea who he is or even that he works; she thinks he lives off of Mal. Alma calls her and tells her to hurry over.

Lo Imperdonable #63 (Tel #64) Thu 8/13/15 Let's get this party started!



Refrito
Aaron tells Malena that their daughter has been adopted by a very rich family, after he decided to fake his death.


The new stuff
Pueblo NuevoIf the engagement is so pretentious, what is there left for the wedding?
Pablo’s mom has very nice words to say about her son – ever since his father died, he proved to be hardworking and well behaved, making her extremely proud. If Crescencio accepts him into his family, he will have nothing to be sorry about.
Abuelo is happy with what he hears, all his remaining doubts are now gone. He asks for the party ceremony to continue. Pablo starts his speech: he asks the head of the family to give his consent and then both he and Ana Perla kneel, while Crescencio gives his godly blessing.
Sorry, this looks so ridiculous.
As Pablo slips a ring on AP’s finger, Julio looks on in anger and then leaves.

In the city
Aaron hugs Malena, promising her that their daughter had a very good life. He kisses her (both Malena and the Patio can barely stand it). Malena wants some more information, but Aaron has shared enough for now. He wants some money to pay his debts. After she obliges, he’s out the door, leaving Malena to shake with disgust and with the realization that Aaron hasn’t changed one bit.

La Sombra del Pasado #127 (Mex 130) 8/13

Too short, out of order, mostly from memory, probably not coherent and needing lots of fill in.

The Fetus (Thanks, Eli!)
Cristobal is now well aware that the fetus is not his. He leaves the gynecologists office in search of Val but Juanita tells him that Val is in San Miguel.

Val is given literature to read about the procedure and paperwork to fill out. She cannot interrupt a pregnancy after 12 weeks and will need to have an ultrasound. Val assures the doctor that she is not that far along and will bring the ultrasound report from her own doctor. The clinic doctor explains that the clinic will have to perform their own ultrasound. It's required by law. To interrupt a pregnancy after 12 weeks could be very dangerous for the mother and is a crime.

Chris is waiting at Val's door when she comes home. He confronts her about lying to him. Of course he has no memory of "that night" because NOTHING HAPPENED AND THE BABY IS NOT HIS! Val says she doesn't know what Cris's father told him...ooops! Cris is cara de why am I the last to know?? What? Cris is incredulous. "My father knew???" Cris tells Val it's her OB/GYN who spilled those beans. Cris is greatly relieved that he will never have to see Val ever again.

Lo Imperdonable #62 (Tel #63) Wed 8/12/15 "Party On While You Can, Folks, Because Your Happiness Is About to End!!!"

Quick Note:  Hi everyone, I'm back and happy to report that we made the move across country without a hitch.  First, allow me to give a quick shout out and thank you to the rest of our recap team for pinch hitting for me these past few weeks.  They all did a great job, as usual.  Also, I managed to catch up yesterday on my reading of all recaps and comments and in the process I realized (since I watch the Mexico broadcast) that at some point Univision combined two episodes, so that Univision's episode #62 last night was actually episode #63 of the original Televisa broadcast in Mexico.  I noted this in my title for any of you that read our recaps but watch online copies of Televisa's broadcast.

On with the recap.  Some scenes are combined.

Lo Viejo:  V-Snake feels awful, but it's no surprise.  Daniel warned her of the effect of the medicine he gave her to cause her a medical crisis and gain even more sympathy from her family.  She whispers to him a plan for squeezing all the juice out of this manufactured "crisis".  Vero tells Martin she has to go to Mexico City and can't wait any longer because she is worried about Malena.  Malena runs to the shower to wash away the filth left on her body by her rapist husband Aaron.

Lo Nuevo:

Martin promises Vero that he will speak with her doctor about going to Mexico City, but if the doctor says it's too dangerous for her, then he can't do anything about it.  She tells Martin she needs to go to their room to rest.  After she leaves, Martin tells Alfredo how happy he now is with Vero, but confesses he still has to learn to control his jealousy.  He worries that Emi still loves Vero even if he plans to marry Virginia.  Alfredo reminds him Vero loves him, but he needs to control his jealousy or he will lose her forever.  The doctor shows up.  Martin tells him about Vero's wish to go to Mexico City and the doctor agrees to examine Vero.

Yo No Creo En Los Hombres Capitulo 22 Wed 8/12/15 - Where 's the acid when you need it?


( Some scenes may have been merged out of context out of context. UPDATE :  I am feeling a bit sick so I am just going to point out the important stuff. If I missed out something tell me in comments.)




Josefa the Antique Bullying Bitch with a case is spreading the rumors to the neighbors about the civil wedding being fake . She challenges Julian who is flabbergasted by all of this to tell the truth but Julian who is also assisted by Doris  lie that this is just  a big fat lie. Espy berates Josefa for constantly telling lies about MD but time will show The Heifer her place soon enough ( Does that mean she's getting the white jacket? ).  Josefa promises them all that her claims will be proven soon enough.   Isela now alone with Josefa berates her for lying but Josefa assures that the rumors are true cause she knows exactly what she has heard from Hon.

Espy asks Max how much they owe him but Max assures her that the most important thing is to support MD who is by the way looks half-dead from despair. Max and Leo leave. Clara & Espy later console MD who doesn't say a word.

Doris is leaving but Julian asks Ari to take away Jenny ( The Anonymous Alcoholics Girl)  away. Jenny says that she will stay to prepare some food for Espy.  Ari tries to take Doris with him but she refuses cause staying with him is getting dangerous. She would much rather walk to her house alone  than leave with the douche Ari. ( Way to go girl!!) .  Ari points out that she could tell the truth but she didn't cause she loves him but Doris tells him she kept quiet to not bother MD more.  She leaves proudly and it turns out that Orly and Julian were listening to the whole conversation. Julian threatens to not tell MD anything otherwise Ari will repent it for all of his life. Jenny by bad luck restrains Julian.  Orly gets mad too but Ari reminds him that he knows how the things are much to Isela's shock.




Max comes home and Alma tells him that Maly has been calling nonstop but Max promises to call her in order to not molest us further. He also informs Alma and Claudio of  Dan's latest antics and Ivana's pregnancy.  Claudio says that it was not a betrayal cause he was not with Ivana when he was marrying MD and despite his marriage he could have taken care of Ivana's child.  Leo tells Claudio that Dan lied to MD about his job and virginity.  Max points out that not caring for things is Dan's motto of Life, he cannot even take care of himself. Claudio repeats again that they have meddled enough in the situation but Leo says that he will meddle in it if that is required cause if you love a gal you gotta respect her!

Arango is taking the incredibly disobedient Maly to home. She wants to go have some teenage fun but Arango shall give her a cent no more .  Maly slips that no one cares for her, not even her BF and Lover.  Arango calls Ursula who reprimands Maly for her stupidities.  At the same time Max calls : He is coming to the house.  Arango panics because in her state Maly could spit out of her infidelity.  Later Maly arrives back in the house by force.   Isidro informs them all that Max has arrived. Ursula goes to take care of the situation.  She assures him that she and Maly had nothing to do with it.  Ursula feigns care for MD's situation and confides that   she was only looking out for the health of her grandson.
