 La Madrastra - ANTES DEL GRAN ESTREÑO - Everything you need to know: Quién es quién, the plot, the family trees, the writers, the directors and the producers

<em> <strong>This is will in the Primetime page, at least for the start. I just wanted to include some pictures, so I made it into a separate page.</strong> </em>

<strong>The original series</strong>

La Madrastra 2022 is the remake of the 2005 La Madrastra (starring Victoria Ruffo and César Évora) which was based on the 1981 Chilean La Madrastra (staring Jael Ünger and Walter Kliche). Other remakes are: Vivir un Poco (1985), Para Toda la Vida (1996), Forever (1996) and ¿Quién mato a Patricia Soler? (2014).

 We open on a repeat of Pedro's grand revelation to Sara that her father not is THEIR father Sevaranio Del Monte. He’s referring to her real father, Dante!! Cara de Impactada for Sara.

Elsewhere Rosa is reacting to Deb’s grand revelation at her wedding by screaming ‘Deborah’ about the way you would scream ‘Viper’! She gets all in her face. Prospi briefly tries to restrain her but then lets her go for Deb, as he instead turns his attention to the letters now on the floor. Adela takes Prospi's position trying to hold Rosa back but Rosa is almost immediately distracted anyway when she noticed Prospi go for the letters, she begs Prospi not to read the letters. Deb is much more interested in watching the fall out than she is in fighting with Rosa. Rosa insists the letters are lies but Prospi reads them anyway. The smile on Prospi face looks a little sinister…. but then maybe he’s just shocked and trying not to cry.

Sara thinks Pedro is making up lies to hurt her since she rejected him. Pedro asks if she really thinks she’s that important to him and she says yes and it’s sad he would stoop that low.  Pedro accuses Sara of being in on the scheme with Deb and Dante and coming to Santa Catalina to make idiots out of all of them to steal their inheritance. They trade insults and accusations and somehow even now, Sara jumps to the defense of dear ol' mom when Pedro basically calls her a whore. Pedro tells Sara to go ahead and ask dear mommy what the truth is, if she doesn’t believe him. You know since she can’t ask either potential father as one is deceased and the other is missing.

Deb and Pedro are fighting in the chamber of torture. What if Sara found out that you were willing to “sell” her to me? Pedro asks. Or that she is not Sev’s daughter? Deb’s reply is that she will tell everyone about his connection to Henry – before disappearing, Dante told her about his longstanding partnership with Henry, that was ruined when they decided to make Pedro part of their team. And if he plans to play Pedro el Torturador with her, all this info will be sent to Juan. For once Pedro is speechless.  

Adela thinks they should cancel their wedding with everything that is happening, but Sal is certain that now, more than ever, they need to stand together. Prospi and Rosa arrive, upset over the fact that Juli is in the hospital because she tried to harm herself (not exactly right, she tried to harm her innocent baby). Rosa apologizes to Adela (and this time she really means it), she’s treated Bryan so badly while Adela has always been kind to Jessica. She adds that she has to make up for many past mistakes, Prospi says there will be no vow renewal for now, without Juli it wouldn’t be the same. They don’t know how long she will have to be locked up, the doctors said she has a mental crisis. Sal and Adela want to postpone, too, Rosa says there is no need, but they both insists and Rosa is moved by their solidarity.

Adela mentions they have big problems, too, Rosa apologizes for not having asked but she is very worried for Julieta. Adela says they can all be in pain at the same time, heartbreak spare nobody.

This is no way complete so feel free, even more than free, to add anything I omitted. 

I confess that I had to spend way longer on the couch than I planned on  because there were way too may details that needed to be included as we head to the gran final and see justice done  on Monday 10/24. 

Pedro plays the victim . 

Adela finds out that Pedro kicked them out because  Brayan and Cornelio  attacked him. Pedro warns Brayan if he files a complaint,  it will be their word against his. Nobody plays with him.  (Ooo, he punctuates that  with a nice crunchy bite on an apple. ) Juan finally moves his butt along with Simón and Sara to Adela's and sees the damage that Pedro has done. Cornelio tells Juan that Pedro is not the person Juan thinks he is. Pedro pops up in the doorway asking Cornelio what kind of person is he then??? Pedro tells everyone that Cornelio and Bryan attacked him and tried to kill him.  Brayan surges to the front of the group and accuses Pedro of trying to kill him.  Juan is shocked!!!  Juan calls for Mateo and Lucas to come to the hacienda because Pedro kicked the Cruz daily out of their house.  Pedro warns Brayan  not go around defaming him or to be influenced by stupid Cornelio's plan for revenge. Brayan makes it clear that he doesn't lie and that Pedro played some dirty tricks on him and then tortured him. Juan grabs Pedro by the neck and  demands that Pedro tells him then and now what Brayan is talking about. Sara is stupid and helps pull Juan off of Pedro when he starts  telling Juan to let him go. Juan tells him he had no right to do what he did with the house. It technically is on land that belongs to him. Pedro says they did not have the right to do a sneak attack on him. If Brayan is so sure that he tried to kill him, let him prove it. Pedro then turns his venom on Juan. He is  surprised that he is not on his side but on "their" side. He understands that they are  the "defenseless" and the "innocent" while he is the "devil himself."

 Here we go!

1. At her apartment, Sara first makes Juan's cup of tea and then talks with Juan and finds out that Pedro is the owner of Campo Verde. That is where all of their clients are going.  Psycho Pedro was also the one who stole the money from the company and their father.  Juan admits that he lied to protect him. Sara is looking less than impressed. 

2. Prospi is angrily telling Berta and Rosa that Mateo will not be putting a foot in their home again. He also announces that as far as Alondra is concerned, he does not want her near any of the Del Monte boys either. He now knows that Sal was right about those damn Del Montes. 

3. At Adela's house, Adela tells Jessica that she never had any kind of friendship with Pedro. It was all about the work but she does remember one time when he did come by the house. She remembers Pedro  threatening them by telling them to get used to leaving the hacienda because  that if the  hacienda  had too much of something, it was  hired help. She tells Jessica and Brandon about the threat and how Pedro seemed like somebody she didn't know. Jessica finds that weird. Adela goes on to explain that Pedro has always been different from his brothers. As for Brayan, he told her he wanted to quit working at the hacienda, but never told her why. Jessica wonders if Pedro threatened him which gives Adela something to think about.

Sara walks in on Deb and Juan and contradicts her mother’s jibberish, by saying that she and Juan are going to unite for their son and their family. She heard all of Deb’s words, and she’s back to talk to her brothers. She promises to Juan none of Deb’s words about her are true. Juan believes her. She wants to speak to the others first, but she asks Deb to talk later at the apartment.

Juli accuses Rosa of always pushing her towards Juan. They could have never been happy together. Juan doesn’t love her! Rosa admits she wanted her daughters to be happy no matter what and realizes the one who loves Julieta is Mateo. But Juli can’t even hear his name, she hates him and the child she’s carrying so much! Rosa is shocked by these words, but Juli doesn’t care. Maybe Rosa can finally see the magnitude of her mistake.

Crazy-eyed again after Deb destroyed his parents’ portrait, Simon looks almost catatonic while Paloma tries to keep him off the edge (who needs a baby when you have a Simon, am I right, Paloma?). Think about the present and our future, Paloma says and Simon’s answer is to remind her and the Patio how much he hates Deborah (as if any of us ever had the time to forget about that). He does wonder about what she said about Paloma’s father, but Paloma insists her dad is Salvador. They kiss and Paloma promises to put back the portrait.

We return to Juli’s downfall and once again hear her arrogantly declare to Mateo that the baby is his but no one is ever going to know, everyone will continue believing the child is his nephew/niece. Juli comes into the main room and immediately starts making her denials when Juan demands to know how she could have done this! Juli tries to convince him that the baby really is his and what they all overheard was her lying to Mateo because she’s tired of his harassment. Juan isn’t buying this for a second. Juli looks to Pedro who gives her the nod and she continues to attempt her case. Everyone else looks shocked very uncomfortable. Juan and Juli go back and forth until Rosa predictably tries to intervene and defend her little princess but Prospi cuts her off and instead demands that Juli tell them all the truth once and for all. Whose baby is it? Juli surprisingly acquiesces to daddy’s demand and admits the baby is Mateo’s!!! But she hates him!! (Note to Juli and people everywhere, don’t sleep with people you hate, that’s weird!) In fact, she detests him as much as she hates Juan! Juan says the typical how could you do this? I don’t even know who you are anymore! Pedro thinks Juan should calm down and show Juli some understanding!!! (LMAO) Cause you know, she lost everything overnight and was desperate and all – the way he says this, his tone of voice, it’s hard to know for sure if he’s defending her or mocking her. Juan does the opposite of calming down and starts screaming and Lucas jumps in with additional accusations of how Juli separated Juan from Sara. He tells her that she was just obsessed with beating Sara. Juli tells him to shut up, all he ever does is follow Sara and Juan around like a little puppy desperate for a little affection. Mateo jumps in and tells Juli not to speak to Lucas like that and Juli unleashes on him asking him if he's happy now.

As you all probably know, La Madrastra starts on October 17th. I will recap the Gran Estreño, whether that will be 1-hour or 2-hour (if it's a 1-hour Estreño, I will also recap #2). 

Is anyone interested in recapping with me? 2 people would be ideal, 1 person is doable.

Depending on how many people will join the team, I am willing to recap either one or two episodes per week and write small summaries for another one. (For more details on that, see the first comment.)

Here's the plot (I'll write it in the Antes del Gran Estreño post I'm going to make anyway) in case you're unsure whether you'll watch it or not:

During a trip to Spain, Marcia Cisneros (Aracely Arámbula) is accused of murdering Nicolás Escalante (Gabriel Soto) and is sentenced to 35 years in prison. Esteban Lombardo (Andrés Palacios), her husband, considers her not only a murderer but an adulteress who killed her lover to cover up her betrayal, so he abandons her and files for divorce. Marcia is certain that the murderer is among her ex-husband's friends, so she studies law while in prison to reopen her case.

Twenty years later, a lawyer manages to get her early release and she returns to Mexico to clear her name and be reunited with her children, but they believe her dead. Lucrecia (Marisol del Olmo), Esteban's older sister, placed a portrait of an unknown woman in their home and the children grew up adoring the woman in the portrait. Marcia summons all the suspects, who are shocked to see her, but to win over her children and investigate each of the suspects, she changes her name and introduces herself as Marisa Jones. Marcia forces Esteban to break up with his fiancée in order to marry her, thus becoming the stepmother to her own children.

(Source: Wikipedia)

If you're interested, please write a comment here. Specify the day(s) you would like to recap too, so we can organise the recapping schedule (see the first comment for more details).

Thank you in advance and I hope to see you on the La Madrastra patio.

 It's that time again! Karmageddon arrives at Santa Catalina to deal itself to the evil ones we have discussed and analyzed to a degree that Freud and Jung would applaud. The cliffhangers have been going in every direction and the evil ones have been so active that last weekend would have been almost too early for this discussion. The usual questions apply:

• What do you think the writers will do to them?
• What do you think they deserve?

If I have forgotten anything in the following, please advise so I can revise. This should include all data through episode 69.

This is in no way complete. Please feel free to add anything I omitted. 

In  keeping with the equestrian influences at the hacienda:  WHOA!!! is all I can say after this episode .🐴

The Important Things: 

1. Simón AKA BigBabySimón  confesses to having killed his father.  (but his story doesn't quite match what Agustín saw and was "encouraged" to forget    Hmmm . . .) 

Juan goes BSC hearing BBS (Big Baby Simón) confess and throws him on the floor. Paloma goes to comfort BBS as Lucas and Paloma insist that BBS is upset and confused. All Juan wants to know is how did he kill their father. An hysterical BBS explains that he and Severiano were arguing in the SUV and he was threatening his father with telling  everyone that he was not the perfect husband but had his share of  lovers. Then something happened. He didn't know what and the SUV was thrown to the other side of the road landing on its roof. The driver was dead. He remembers his father complaining that he was stuck.

1.  Pablo violently rouses Deb from her sleep to warn her that they will all becoming and soon will know that Sara is not Severiano's daughter but Dante's. He tells her that she did a real good job in bringing Sara to their hacienda to fight for an inheritance that wasn't hers. He asks if she is going to deny that, too. When she says nothing he asks if the poison also affected her speech. As he goes to leave calling for Juan to tell him the truth, she screams at him to shut the door. Pedro returns to her bedside saying now they are understanding each other. Pedro informs her that her lover confessed the whole thing as she was asleep in the hospital. Now it is his turn to do some business with her. She knows that they both have a lot of vulnerabilities but reminds him not  to underestimate her. Also, since Sara renounced the inheritance, she has no money. He laughs and asks if she thinks that money is something that he needs. He emphasizes that he isn't her. The fact is that Sara has something in her womb that is much more valuable than the inheritance and it should never be born.  Deb looks really shaken as never before.Read more »

Sara thinks Pedro is making up the affair between Deb and Dante, and when he says Aurora told him, she is even more certain it’s not true. Pedro thinks she should investigate the matter, because it could hurt them all, but Sara insists they are only friends. Pedro reminds her Deb’s long string of lovers, Dante could be one of them. But defending Deb is where she’s an expert.

Mateo reads the DNA test several times and then says that Juli’s kid is not Juan’s, it must mean it’s his. He wants to go tell Juan immediately, but Julieta Baby warns him that this could hurt Juan, Juli has to be the one to admit the truth.

Juan refuses to believe Pedro is an assassin, but Corni insists, even if he doesn’t have the proof. Juan think his resentment is making him say these things, Corni realizes Juan is defending his brother like he has always done, but Pedro is a monster! Bryan tells Corni to calm down, then Modesto says he was aware of it, too, but had to keep quiet to avoid even more conflict.
