Lo Imperdonable #3 Wed 5/20/15 “Chance Encounters and Fast Friendships Set the Wheels in Motion For the Start of Our Love/Hate Saga”



Once he gets Sanson to calm down, Martin turns and asks Veronica if she is ok.  Their eyes lock and she smiles softly, barely giving him a glimpse of her dimples.  After the requisite several seconds of staring at each other, he takes Veronica’s hand and asks if it hurts.  She says except for the rope burn on her hand, she is fine.  She smiles again, thanks him and says he is “her hero”.  He continues staring at her.  They talk briefly about her over-confidence in handling Sanson.  Vero’s friend Mariana runs up to ask if she is ok.  Martin turns and introduces himself to her, but just as Mariana is about to tell him Vero’s name, the tour guide rudely interrupts and asks if they can continue their tour, thus depriving Martin of his first chance to find out Vero’s name.

Alfredo meets Martin at the club so he can sign some important papers.  He is glad to hear that Martin wants to join the club and notes that going there and meeting new people, like the girl with the dark hair he just saw him with, will help distract him and raise his spirits.  Martin smiles and turns, wistfully glancing in the direction where Vero headed off with Mariana, then saying to his friend:  “Yes, she is very beautiful.  She made a big impression on me…..But now I can only think about one woman, the one responsible for my brother’s death.  That’s why I came to this club, to get close to the Prado Castelos….To avenge my brother’s death.”  (Despite a lack of storm clouds, we hear another lightning strike.  “El cirquero” Mejia strikes again!!!!)

Amores con trampa #38 and #39 5/20/15 and 5/21/15

Have we had a slow episode yet?? Every night seems action-packed! Jarifa will keep us up to date with all the details. Look for her recap in the comments.

Labels:


Que Te Perdone Dios Capitulo 85- The Life-counseling Club opens its door's - Highlights

Schoolwork has been a dime and it's getting late around here so i will put up the highlights :



  • Diego has been injured badly as his  wounds mark the name "Satan" all over the place ( I mean seriously the slash and brash scene was extremely violent,  Faust just can't get the Karma of Dios any sooner). Fortunately the fast & furious Max & Abi arrive at the scene. Abi would like to report to the only god-forsaken authority available in town , Barragan but Diego refused.  Max brought the soon - to- be -  retired Mel  ( But not before Mel thought Max came to him  for Lucio's salvation) for help & Diego slips to Mel that the one who made holy turkeys out of him was none other than  Faust. Diego promises that he shall become the jury- judge- executioner  against the Feisty Reptile!



  • Renata has just shared her life haunting experience with Helena& Simona shocked to all ears as Ren mutters at last " Abi's NOT my goddaughter, she's my daughter for Christ's sake! "  Of course our two lovely women just about experienced the same things in their lives so they decide to focus on consoling Ren instead of raising barrels & flags, good friends i must say . Ren informs Ele & Sim that her dad was nothing but short of an ogre who has caused her daunting pain  cause she profoundly loved a peon but the peon is now dead as bonkers  ( I don't know why Ele & Sim are complaining , least they don't  have to pay child support to anyone well atleast not yet. They are not in the same lucky category as Malaria who only lives to extort )  We also don't have shortage of mother of the year speeches in this episode in order to make Ren feel better ( I admit some speeches almost moved me to tears but no action is getting old fast and i truly hate the fact that  Ren's still blind .)  Also later on a bench  in a church  Ren counsels Ele to meet some love too ,  Barragan is the perfect candidate  but Ele refuses because  the calamity of their pasts would only serve to doom them.  She also learns that Pab was Bar's son, responding with pity


  • Pat went to look for Ren at the hacienda but Faust invited him to take a drink instead to have a little conversation. I don't remember correctly but i think Faust was quite gleeful at the thought of Pat boinking his wife ( This romance is tearing my mind , just give us a real love story already. It's like we have close to no happy couples in this novela cause endless depression , unrequited love  , money- hoeing,  lying  & pretending must be  the motto of life in this mugroso town seriously the most happy person in this novela is Meliton who is Pro Herbalife  yet doesn't smoke weed)  . FACT : This town lacks Jesus!

La Sombra del Pasado, Capitulo 66, 05-20-2015.

Recap courtesy of HellaShelle

Here’s a quick and dirty recap, so ppl can talk. I’ll try to submit a clean, more detailed one later.

A furious Candela tells Simoneta to have Sev call her when he gets back. Sim has the nerve to look confused when Cande hangs up on her, even though she pretty much just told the woman that she’s her husband’s mistress.

Renato wants Silvia to know that he wants her to be a partner in the business, not just an employee, but if their past will be a problem, she should say so now. She’s kind of doubtful about the whole plan. It sounds good, but unnecessarily complicated what with basing themselves in SL rather than DF just Because of Aldonza! She tells Renato he’s not in love, he’s obsessed. Renato says he’s holding on to his slim hope regardless and he doesn’t want to change.

Lo Imperdonable #2 Tue 5/19/15 “From Oaths of Vengeance to Love at First Sight: Martin’s Heart Prepares to Run the Gamut of Emotions”



We start where we left off – with Martin at his brother’s graveside, in the pouring rain, his raw emotions a mix of profound grief and even deeper rage, screaming, asking his brother to give him the name of the woman who took his life, then swearing to him that he will discover the name of that woman, that he will follow the trail of the Prado Castelos, and that once he finds her….that woman will SUFFER.  (Cue another lightning strike and more ominous choir music.)  Martin slumps onto his brother’s grave and cries uncontrollably, while we see flashbacks of him proudly watching his younger brother (the only family he had) graduating from college with honors.

At the Prado Castelo’s sprawling finca on the outskirts of Mexico City, his nana is happy “el niño” Emiliano is back and remarks that the family is once again complete. They all decide it’s time to break out the champagne and celebrate his return.  Virginia wastes no time invading Emi’s personal space and telling him they’ll have to go party at a few new clubs.  He gently moves Virginia’s wandering hands aside and tells her there will be plenty of time for that, though he is clearly not interested.  Then he turns to Veronica and says what he really wants to do is go horseback riding the next morning.  His mom (who looks WAY YOUNGER than him) suggests they ride in a car instead, because poor sickly Virginia can’t ride horses much.  Emiliano quickly nixes the idea, and Virginia reassures him she will be fine riding a horse.

Lo Imperdonable #1 Mon 5/18/15 The Heart of Darkness


Row!
The men steer the open boat down the river, cascades and lush green expanses all around them.  The slender man, the only one not rowing and clearly an outsider, spots a gorgeous snake coiled around a tree on the shore.  He takes a handwritten letter from his pocket and glances at it.

Ride!
A lovely, smiling girl – Verónica – rides an equally lovely (and probably smiling) white horse.  

Make Whoopee!
Jorge and Salma snuggle in bed.  If this were the sixties, they would be lighting cigarettes right now.

But on the River...
The sky turns gray and menacing, the water turbulent.  Lightning flashes in the sky.

If you can't have them, frame them for murder! La Sombra Del Pasado #65 05/18/2015

This was a hard episode for me to sit through, I have a hard time watching tv/movies where someone dies and last night's episode just about did me in, below you'll find the recap but with less of the usual snark.

Aldonza gives Renato instructions to stop the investigation into who burned down her apartment, she does not want to cause more pain to the Lagos family. Renato agrees and later calls the detective working the case to tell him that they want the matter dropped. Renato will also be going back to umm is the town Santa Lucia? Gah, it's only Tuesday and my brain is fried!

Later in the episode the dream team (that's what I'm calling Pato, Silvia and Renato) lease the house where they will open up their office, they will also be living there, which is pretty cool because that house looks awesome.

Amores con trampa #36 and #37 5/18/15 and 5/19/15

It's another week with the Carmonas...and it's also finals week for me. I still have some exams to grade, so the recap will be short and sweet. I hope you all don't mind (and don't mind filling in where needed.)

I'm doing lots of scene combining tonight!

Isa threatens to turn Beto in for kidnapping. Facundo grabs her phone and tells Beto to scram! Facundo assures Isa that if Rocio is with Beto, she is well taken care of. Isa takes the opportunity to tell Fac that she loves him. She asks if he didn't feel anything when they kissed each other? He reminds her that SHE kissed HIM and no, he didn't feel anything. When he looks at her, he is afraid. She's a bruja(witch) and evil. She's worse than carne de puerco(pig meat)...and he apologizes to the animals for comparing her to them. After he leaves Isa snivels that she wants to change her cold and calculating heart and that Facundo is the only person that can help her do that.

Thanks to all of the recappers....

Xlint
PaquitadelBarrio
and yes, Jarifa who filled in for me in the comments often!  I really appreciate it.

Also thanks to all the commenters who came back everyday!

I also rely on CC and they sucked last night, so if I missed anything or didn't quite get it right...I apologize.


  • Chava is freaking out about finding Sophia.  He is harassing poor Fuzzy Tavarez.
  • Meanwhile, Armando is trying to convince Regina that Peralta is not the fine upstanding citizen that he portrays.  Regina's getting a fine upstanding paycheck from him, so she's going to be a hard sell.  
  • Speaking of the devil, Peralta is out on his yaght enjoying libations with Mike Stone (the American, who speaks english with a thick Mexican accent)...OK who in the hell is Mike Stone?  I don't remember him or wasn't paying attention.  Anyways, Peralta and Ricardo...(who in the hell is Ricardo?) accuse Mike Stone of double crossing them about the buying product from other dealers.  Mike throws in an English word every once in a while and swears that he did not double cross them.  Anyways, Ricardo shoots Mike in the chest and he falls FACE DOWN into the middle of the ocean.  Theoretically, one would believe that if the bullet wound doesn't kill him, he will drown.  More about that later.

La Sombra del Pasado #64 Friday, 5-15-15


Good Evening, Peeps!  Well, I thought I’d lighten the mood a little bit here on the patio with our beloved Casa de Caramelos, The Candy House!  You’ll see why.  Let’s get right to it!  This was a rapid fire episode (no pun intended) with lots of jumping around.

We have a brief rewind of the biddie and bile (Val) attack in the plaza.  Aldonza goes upside Vale’s head – WHOP!! – and tells her she’d better back down before she gets smacked down - again.  Vale tries to play hurt for the biddies.

Over at Las Animas Cande tells Sev he MUST come home!  Their grown son needs his diaper changed and she doesn’t want Aldonza doing it!  Hell no, there’s lots of moola  in play with his horsey deal.  He hangs up on her.  Simonetta/Viviana (S/V) is with him, he scoffs that she wouldn’t understand these situations with kids, not having any.  S/V tells Sev she DOES have a child and he doesn’t care about her life.  He tells her to shut it and don’t start with her drama!

Amores con Trampa #35 Facundo tries and keeps on trying to avoid trouble but he seems to be a magnet for it

Out of control, Santee fires Esteban in his house in front of Isabel
Outside Gallo, Gusana and Jacinto see Esteban get in his car… he looks down/upset.
Santee and Isabel in their bedroom, he is still outraged that Isa did not tell him Esteban was interested in her… She claims she would never pay attention to Esteban. She tries to walk away while he is still outraged, he won’t let her.  But she is not willing to tell him her secret… (she thinks noone will know..)
Fac, Gusana and Jacinto approach Esteban at his car window, Esteban tells them Santee fired him. Gallo says maybe its better for anyone to stay away from ‘those’.  (Jacinto, Gallo and Gusana keep whispering in each other’s ear and it sounds like it is birds chirping loudly)
Beto and Rocio are talking outside at Tia Clarita’s house. Rocio is asking him for explanations about the appearance and attitude of his ‘ex’ ‘Meche’.  (Tia Clarita is arguing with her pig, who is also named Clarita). Poor Beto, now Tia Clarita also wants explanations…  Seems ‘Meche’ has such a reputation of revolting/tough character. 
Gallo and Esteban come back in the office… Gallo has a new bug to place in Santee’s hair… he has just named Esteban his personal lawyer… Gallo wants to twist the knife ‘how does that feel?’  Santee starts yelling “GET OUT!!!” but noone moves…
Back at the Carmona house, the grandma and grandpa are arguing, as always.  Gallo arrives home.  HE is happy (still enjoying the blow he served Santee).   He has good news for Maria.  She wants to know if its Beto coming back. Not quite.  HE just hired Esteban to work for him at the office. Grandpa celebrates loudly, then asks ‘what was the good news?’ LOL!! Maria and Grandma don’t quite see the ‘good’ in the news. Gallo explains that the ‘good’ was the look in Santee’s face… he turned red as a lobster!
At school, Diego catches up with Carmen.  She is having mixed feelings about the photo shoot session. 
Francis comes and confronts Carmen… now that Feli and I will have a baby, you better butt out. Then Francis keeps the offenses telling that a cavegirl that smells like pigs would take Feli from her. Of course this was enough for Carmen to lose her cool so she slaps Francis right as Feli is arriving, so he questions what Carmen did (slap Francis) since Carmen knows that Francis is pregnant.

Que Te Perdone Dios #83 – Abi Still Wants to Marry Her Uncle, Renata Wants to Give Him Half of the Inheritance, and Fausto Wants to Kill Him. And He and Benito Get Fired.




Refry: Julian tells Black Hand (Mano Negra) that he won’t tolerate anybody, not even his own big-mouthed son, revealing their past and getting them back into trouble with the law.

At the funeral home, Amanda explains to Diego that nobody told him the truth because it wasn’t their secret to tell, it was Vicenta’s. And Vicenta didn’t tell because she didn’t want Diego to think his mom was a ho with the patrón, and to stain Diego’s memory of her. Having everybody believe that Diego was entering into an incestuous marriage with Abigail was Vicenta’s way of “honoring” her daughter’s memory, I suppose.

New: Vicenta is put into the ground with strange African drums and wails as background music. The music was intense, but out of place in little Real de San Andrés. I have no idea why, in this class- conscious nook of the world, members of ‘high’ society have turned out for the funeral of this servant. Even Eduviges, who has been so cruel to Motor, is there to pay her respects to the Hacienda’s chief vegetable peeler. Everyone attending the hija de la criada’s wedding was a stretch (because the groom was a dyed in the wool peon), but at least there was the Renata connection. Not so here. Anyway, Max steps up to Diego for some recognition for having saved his life, and gets a nod. Pan over the black-clad crowd to Abi. If the ceremony had been carried out, would she and Diego still have celebrated their wedding night what with Vicenta being assassinated and all?

5/14 #190 Hasta el Fin del Mundo - Lucas gets a new luke, whatever


This is my last recap for this TN.  It’s been a hoot!  I’ve actually enjoyed this one.  Even though the storylines often didn’t make sense, it sure gave us a lot to talk about.

Depa de Isadora
Gerry has delivered the Injection of Doom.  He and Aldo.2 leave Isadora out cold on the floor.  Oliver arrives, suitcases and all.  He finds his mother dead to the world.  He receives a call from Daddy Dearest and cries as he tells him he’s afraid mums is dead!  Gerry tells him to remain calm and he’ll be right over.

Later, Gerry has arrived with the good Doctor Santivañes.  Oliver is frantic and doesn’t understand why Morgana wasn’t there but Gerry explains it was her day off.  Doctor reports Isadora is dead from a heart attack.  Oliver can’t understand.  She’d never complained of a heart problem.  Doc explains this happens suddenly sometimes, with no warning.  Gerry thanks the doc, asking him to complete his duties and Gerry will take care of the rest.  Ollie weeps over his mother.

Depa de Irais
Matias cooks for his chocolatito bonbón. They make plans for a family with children and dogs…..zzzzz

There's really only gonna by a short version. Honestly, I'm thinking a long version will not be forthcoming. I'm tired. My students are tired. I'm trying to pack up my room and there's dust and bug carcasses are everywhere and I'm pissy and I don't have a Val or a Cris to slap around. I want an inflatable Val doll that you slap and it pops back up for more slapping.

5/13 #189 Hasta el Fin del Mundo - two days to go and we have new characters! A half-clad native and a half-mad felon.


Patricio, Alone with his thoughts
“That  old ‘Zorro’ did all this on purpose to bury me, and I fell in his trap like an imbecile.  And now I’m gonna have to pay for his crimes.  ¡Maldita sea!”

Casa de Armando
Nandito prays while we hear “Ave Maria” in the background as Armando looks on.  Oh brother. 

Penthouse del Perdición – Dulliver grows a pair
Geronimo wonders when Oliver left the office.  Oliver explains he went to see Dani and then stopped by to see his mother.  He’s happy to say she’s no longer drinking and is in a support group.  Geronimo immediately pounces – She’s not to be trusted.  Isadora’s will power is very weak.  Well, Oliver has a lot of confidence in her.  He sensed a great determination on her part never to drink again.  Geronimo scoffs and admires his optimisim.  But this is not Isa’s first attempt at sobriety.  She’ll soon break her resolve and return to drinking with more gusto!  Oliver finally stands up to his dad, “From this point on, when you speak of my mother, you do it in a more respectful tone.  Even though you are separated, I hoped we could be a family.  Nothing would make me happier than to see my parents live in harmony.”  But Dad thinks that’s impossible.  He’ll always see Isadora as a sick person, a parasite who lives only on what he gives her.  She doesn’t inspire any respect in him.

La Sombra del Pasado #62 - Wed 5/13 - Longest bus ride ever

Lola runs into Emmanuel after his confrontation with the doc.  He tells her he's not Humberto's son, but he did learn something important…there is something turbio (shady) going on as concerns his parents.  *cough*thisonegotallthesmarts*cough*  Lola recommends a manita de puerco (twisting his arm) and offers to help, but if Doc was going to give up the goods, he would have done it already.  Em is going to start investigating, but he's got bigger fish to fry at the moment…Solitario is being sold off and he's determined to buy him!  Mari's going to get her daddy to give him a loan or something.  Lola doesn't buy that--nor I!  Em tilts Lola's face to look in her eyes and asks if she's jealous.  Lola denies it, huffily and walks away, also huffily.

Uriel gave Irma a pill and some tea and she's finally resting.  He asks Mari how she's doing with Emmanuel.  She brings up the "favor" of a loan for…well, it's complicated…there's a horse.  Uriel says Emmanuel would need collateral, and no, they won't accept the horse as a guaranty.  Uriel knows what "Don" Sev's horses tend to go for and he thinks Emmanuel needs to start with an economy horse rather than a luxury model.  Since batting her eyelashes has been unsuccessful at getting Uriel to change his mind, Mari is outta there with a swish of her ponytail.

Que te Perdone Dios Capitulo 81 - The Devil You Know

Hello, sorry for the delay but im putting this page up for discussion, I am still working of the recap.



Refritos: Ren is mumbling that today is the day their baby marries for love while Vic is wising her pride in Diego  since he will be the best man on Planet Earth from this day on , experiencing Abi's happiness to the fullest  till the throats go sour like Yellowstone ! Aww i just wish they would marry soon since Mat is slowly grinding my nerves no wonder Connie went crazy, she predicted the future! Anyway Diego, Vic and Dom share a triple hug like no others ( Hopefully it's not their last share of happiness before the Devil knocks on their doorstep soon enough.) . Speaking of Mat, Ab's just tossed bitter feet unto him cause there can be no more between them and Mat feels  squashed (  But Jesus Christ, Ab's so pretty in her dress while Mat should go hide in Antarctica)

5/12 #188 Tue Hasta el Fin del Mundo – Alexa’s plane has vanished! ¡Que te lo digo yo!

Lucas thanks everyone for his success --  mom, Abue, and Dani – yay.  Lucas is taking everyone out to dinner to celebrate.  Lucas dreams of everything he’ll buy when he’s successful, a house for mom and abue and a recording studio for Dani.  She tells him she wants nothing but to be with him.  How do you say Pre-Nup in Spanish?

Casa de Chava
Armando and Nandito are visiting with Marisol.   Armando tells her about his plans to go to French Guiana in search of Alexa along with Paco and Greta.  Marisol offers to babysit while he’s gone.  Just then, a news bulletin on the tele announces the jet carrying Alexa Ripoll has been reported missing and has presumably fallen into the sea. They’re all in shock and Armando assures Nandito Alexa has to be ok.

Armando gets on the phone to the airport as Sofia and Chava walk in.  Nandito is crying and breaks the news to them.  Sofia doesn’t want to believe it and breaks down.
 
Peralta the Conductor
Peralta air conducts Wagner and we can assume he’s celebrating Alexa’s demise.  Dulliver walks in with a sad sack look on his face and tells dad he wishes he could be as optimistic as dear old dad.  Geronimo insists Ollie has lots to be optimistic about – he’s a champ!  Not to mention the heir!  Ollie tells him money doesn’t buy everything in life.  He assures dad he’s very grateful for the opportunity he’s been given and is working hard to make him proud.  However, he just can’t get over Dani.  He can’t stop thinking of her and wanting her in his arms again.  He doesn’t know what to do or how to control his feelings.  Well, this is his lucky day.  Gerry says the time has come to recover Dani!  huh?  Geronimo explains he’s heard via his personal pilot that Alexa’s jet has vanished, and you know what happens when a jet disappears over water……uh, you get wet?

Ollie wants to rush off to see Dani but Gerry tells him to hold off until Dani finds out through the news.  She may not have heard yet, but when she does Oliver can console her and stay by her side.  Oliver worries this news will destroy both Dani and Sofia.  Gerry says, “It’s terrible that so much tragedy has hit the Ripoll home.  Hopefully this will be the end of their bad luck.”  He has to turn away from Olliver to hide his smirk.  bwa-ha-ha

Everyone's a whore, but not Aldonza La Sombra Del Pasado#60 Monday May 5th 2015

For today's re-cap I'm going to go character by character and explain what happened with them in last night's episode, it's gonna be quick and dirty and we will be missing the last ten minutes because my DVR cut off :/ 

Severiano and Renato

Sev thinks he can get whatever he wants and demands that Renato tell him where Cristobal is. Renato is all like "I'm not telling and you can't make me"- Sev threatens him but our attorney tells him to shove it, threatening someone can come back and bite you because it's not legal, he reminds Sev that he has a lot of crimes to pay for and Sev for his part seems to think that justice will never reach him. Die you evil roach. Just die.

 Renato later talks to Silvia and tells her that Cris and Aldi have gotten married, she's surprised to hear the news. Renato wonders out-loud how Cris got his address and he asks Silvia if she had anything to do with it, Silvia denies being the one who gave Cristobal his info.

Sidenote:What does Renato drive? It looks like a Dodge Challenger to me, but someone else said it was a Mustang? I don't care, I want that car, with Renato sitting next to me, cause he's pretty!

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #187 5/11/15 Pato's Gotta Pay!

This is my last recap because we're in the final week! I hope that I have given you more fun and entertainment than this telenovela has. These last few weeks I've wondered just how much better this show would have been if Pedro Fernandez had stayed on. The writing may not have been better, but Chava's "acting" certainly would have been. I want to thank all the commenters who have stayed with us for the entire run. Your loyalty meant so much to me and to the other recappers as well. To everybody who "lurks", I encourage you to join in and have a say. Recappers need to know you're out there. We love hearing your voices!


Thanks Guys! Let's do this again sometime.
On to the recap!

From Friday:
Chava looks at Lupe's picture. He thanks her and prays for her to help Marisol. He gets a call from Sofia who tells him that Alexa took off with that Rat Bastard Alan.

At the hospital, Pato yells at Silvana and threatens to kill her for ruining his pretty face.

Armie and Chava discuss Alexa's disappearance. Armie thinks she dumped him, but Chava tells him that Alan probably coerced Alexa into leaving with him.

Amores con trampa #31 and #32 5/11/15 and 5/12/15

Tonight was another great episode, though much of it wasn't what I would consider deeply important to the overall plot. I will be glossing over quite bit to focus on the more important things. Please feel free to add your 2 pesos to the conversation. Just because I didn't find it important doesn't mean it isn't and I welcome all the help I can get. This is a group effort.
Right to the new….
Santiago (Santi) and Esteban head for the upstairs office while Estefany(Estefy) makes her way to Facundo's office. Fac needs to be reminded how they met, but he finally remembers...she was there when he gave Santi that moquete (punch in the nose.) She introduces herself again and this time tries to give him a friendly kiss. Fac barely avoids it saying he's there to serve her, but not that much right now since he's busy (it really came off better in Spanish.)

Esteban asks Santi if Fac slept with Isabel(Isa.) Santi thinks the only thing Esteban needs to concern himself with is that the Carmona's invested in the bankrupt business. He asks Esteban to leave. Santi has to prepare for a casting for his new publicity and marketing business.

Meanwile Fac is looking for hidden cameras in his office. Cameras got him into a lot of trouble once, but that is not going to happen again. Estefy turns on the charm. She tells Fac he's got a certain caveman like quality (rupestre...I went with that since I found it funnier) and is tender at the same time. He laughs that they say they use "ternura" when an animal is ready for eating. Oh she'll eat you up all right, Facundo. She invites him for coffee. Fac clearly hasn't learned a thing. Anyway. He tells her he's packing and getting ready to leave the city. Estefy plays him like a violin. She can't believe Fac would let Santi win so easily. She leaves and it looks like Fac is giving some thought to what she said.

Silvanna spotted Patrick and Regina getting on the elevator and she ain't happy about what she saw because Patrick was getting pretty handsy with his co-worker.  Anyways, when she comes home, she confronts him about it.  Patrick has his back turned and she hasn't yet seen his face.  He looks like Chava punched him in the face and then hit him with a brick a few times.  Anyways, when she does see his face, she suggests that Regina's boyfriend may have put a whuppin' on him, but he tells her that Chava did it on account that Patrick boinked his virgin kid sister and knocked her up.  Patrick thinks that the beat down he got was well worth it.  Now Chava will have to look at Patrick's face on his niece/nephew everyday.  Silvanna tells him that the Marisol got hit by a Mac Truck and the baby died.  Patrick's bummed because he really wanted to irritate Chava for the rest of his life, but he's ok with the death of the baby.  Patrick never wanted to be a daddy anyway.  Silvanna is surprised to learn that Patrick never wanted to be a daddy, because he acted all thrilled knocking her up.

Que Te Perdone Dios #79: Oh, Brother!! Can’t We At Least All Pretend?


The Formal Engagement Announcement party between Diego and Abigail has just begun.  Guests are enjoying their “tragos”—well, most are. Dr. Patricio Duarte is telling Mateo that he should at least pretend to be happy for Abi.  Mat admits it’s unlikely since he’s dying of jealousy and can only think of the best opportunity to kidnap Abi and ride off into the sunset with her—if he only could.  He hasn’t lost total track of his senses quite yet.  Pats tells him to can the silly talk and he’ll get back to him later.

Pats and Fausto nod to each other and are going to head together to Ren’s table when Pats spies his ex sitting next to her.  Fausto asks why he’s suddenly stopped walking.  He sees a jackal sitting next to Ren.  Who’s the beauty?  Pats used to be married to her, he answers.  Well, then introduce me to her, why don’t you?  They head to the table and Pats looks like he’s just smelled a dead skunk—only this one’s very much alive and seated next to Ren.  Fausto introduces himself and says he understands she and the good Doc used to be married to each other.  “Now let me guess why you let a beauty like this get away.  Hmmm….problems with sex?"  Everyone at the table now smells skunk…this time it's the one standing on his hind legs snickering at his own joke.

La Sombra del Pasado #59 Friday, 5-8-15 Oh, Those Crazy Kids!



Let’s get right to it.   Aldonza can’t take Cris as Marlon Brando anymore and runs out to talk to him but he has driven away!  Cris is pissed!  She doesn’t want to see me?  Okay, she’s not going to see me for the rest of her life!

Cande is with Vale carrying on over whether Cris is with that wench, Aldonza.  Cande calls Sev to see what he knows about Cristobal’s whereabouts.   Sev is with Sim and they have other priorities.  Sim tosses the phone away.

It's a pleasant evening in Santa Lucia.  Eman sees Lola and Pato leaving a restaurant.  It sounds like Pato wants to take a break from their little relationship.  Pato doesn’t think it’s working but he’ll try. He has a request.  Eman has taken a seat in the darkness watching the two.  Apparently he’s close enough to hear Pato ask her to give him a kiss.  Eman watches Lola and Pato kiss and then leaves, hurt.  What Eman doesn’t see is Lola’s underwhelmed expression as the kiss ends.   He doesn’t hear Lola tell him that he doesn’t have a right and not to do it again.  Pato doesn’t know whether she liked it or not.  Then Pato says “Puedo recebir tu òoscolo,” at which point Lola slaps him silly.  Just at that moment Don Mele approaches them.  He’s got a new attitude so he doesn’t comment on the wallop but greets Pato and engages in some word/accent play which I don't get.  Don Mele was going to  leave them to chat but Lola decides to go with him leaving Pato to rub his throbbing jaw and wonder what the heck just happened.

Amores con trampa #30, 8 May 2015... The Carmonas are moving back to the country... and that seems to be affecting the Velascos even more than the Carmonas

Edited to use Vivi's better translation 'back to the country' rather than the 'farm'.
Santee breaks it up between Rocio and Isa.
Gallo can't find peace, really taking it hard that its first night he is not sleeping with Maria. He needs a chance to fix what he broke or his heart will die of pain.
Maria in her room crying, looking at the photos. Beto comes by. But she is still very resentful of his keeping the truth from her.  He claims he could not throw his dad under the bus.  He did not want to hurt her or make her this sad.  Maria claims she had the right to know. He agrees. but he could'nt . He asks what will happen now. She has no idea.  He tries to sneak in some good word about Rocio but Maria won't have any.  She yells she does not want him near Rocio.
Back to Gallo. Yoya finally arrives. He tells her they were all worried about her. SHe is also resentful of him for what 'he did to her mom'.  He asks for a chance to talk.  But she feels very dissappointed of him for betraying her mom. He claims it was a mistake, a trap... She yells that today should be her happiest day. The guy she likes told her he likes her but they will never be able to be together because of what happened between Gallo and that woman.  Poor Gallo is worse than before.
At the Velascos, Rocio and Feli talk. He is playing video games. She notices he is not well. He tells her he told Carmen he likes her but she turned him down.  Rocio says you have to keep trying. They are also trying to split me and Beto... Just don't tell my aunt that you like Carmen.  They (aunt and uncle) are umbearable, they can't even stand each other.  Rocio is headed with Isa to see a psychiatrist.  But Rocio is not that hopefull they will be able to help them.
At Carmonas, Perpetua comes to check on Maria. She is still crying.
In living room, Gallo is sleeping in the couch, having nightmare that he is hearing Maria ask him to choose between Isa and her and he faints backwards. Suddenly the rooster yells and Gallo gets up all startled... but it is Maria coming, she wants to talk before everyone else wakes up.  She knows they can't push Santee out of the company or give him the money back. But they can still put their own house for sale and return to the country. IF you don't do it, we are through.
At Velascos, the rooster yells again. Santee wakes up but Isa is still knocked out.
Back to Carmonas (this is making me dizzy all the switching across the yard)  Beto is coming in the girls room, he wants to talk to Yoya, he tells her he wants to go back to school.  Yoya says it is the only good news she has heard lately.

5/7 Thur Hasta el Fin del Mundo Kiss My Wife (Check), Grab My Wallet (Check), Give Patrick A Beatdown (Check)

Blackmail
Alexa tells Alan he’s crazy if he thinks she’d leave everything she has to run off with him.  Alan can’t believe she’d prefer such a boring, married life instead of an exciting and adventurous one at his side.  Alexa can’t believe his ego!  She insults him, calling him a dreadful (pésimo) director and a patán (cad, uncouth).  He tells her that if she were to see “Amores  Estremos” (apparently the name of the film) she’d feel differently.  It’s turned out so well, that it is now in the hands of an important director, Cesar Baldomer.  He’s a worldwide porn film distributor.  He shows her the film on his iPad.  She tries unsuccessfully to grab the tablet.  He insists it’s a work of art.  He’d love to the face of her bf and her adorable son when they receive a copy of her pornographic film!  She pleads with not to do this to her.  He says she’d no longer be the fairytale princess.  Instead she’d be the fogosa (passionate) princess.  He thinks her boyfriend would go ballistic if he were to see this film.

Later, he shows her photos and tells her to rip them up if she wants, he has thousands of copies waiting to be released.  “After all the pain you’ve caused me,” cries Alexa, “you still want to bother me.  You are a cancer in my life.  It’s too bad you didn’t die!”  He sarcastically says he loves her too, but even more after he’s seen how pretty she is in the film.  Alexa charges that the images on the film are bogus.  He must have hired body doubles.  She never appeared nude!  “Ah the magic of editing,” he glibly replies.  The girl he hired was identical to Alexa.  No one will doubt it is Alexa.  Not even her mother!  She begs him to destroy the film.  He’s sorry, but he can’t.  He’s waited a long time for this moment.  He heard about the important film she was making.  It’s fantastic she’s become so famous and is featured in magazines.  He’s so happy for her, and himself.  She begs and begs that he not release that film.  Here comes the offer:  No one will see that film if she agrees to come with him and star in his next film.  He’s got it all set up to shoot in French Guiana.  She refuses to go with him anywhere.  “Fine,” he says.  “Just be warned I will release this film to the media and make sure it’s spread throughout the Internet.  Your promising career and your relationship with your Yeti Mexicano will sink faster than El Titanic!”

Meanwhile, we see Nandito showing off a photo of Alexa in a magazine to his schoochums.

Back at the restaurant, Alexa gives in.  Alan has set up a press conference to announce she’ll star in his next film in French Guiana.  He’ll also announce he is now her director and representative.  He tells her to wear something despaparante (flashy?).  He walks away as Alexa weeps.

Weekend Discussion: Do Humans Need Love?


Poets, dramatists, composers, and artists have all made careers of glorifying Love. We glue ourselves to our screens night after night watching novela characters trying to make sense of this emotion that other characters either know less about than they do or.... intentionally attempt to deceive them about. However while writers, composers, singers, and actors do their best to promote Love – in all its forms – as the grandest thing in life nobody ever seriously addresses the big fundamental question: Do humans need love to live and be happy?

Que Te Perdone Dios #78 – In Which Diego is Engaged to His Half Sister, Punched by His Brother-in-law and Disdained by His Brother or Nephew



Refried: Patricio avoids mentioning that he knows something went on between Mat and Abi in Mexico, and Renata says how much she likes Xi-ela (in Daniela configuration) and Pat rants against Xi-ela (in Ximena configuration). Also, Mat and Diana discutir, he says don’t meter mi mamá, and she says mamá and Padre Tomás are on her side. He’s the one who started this war.

New: All members of Xi-ela are in their apartment, and Ximena complains that she gets bored on her week off from Porfirio. What, did she stop going to spas and such? Is that really how she sees this unique opportunity, as simply a week off from Porfis? Well, of all the places in the big, wide world she could go, she wants to go to Real de San Andrés. She wants to check out this place that Daniela likes, she’s interested in meeting Renata, and she wants to “help” Dani with the Pat situation.

La Sombra del Pasado #58 5/7/15 Descent into Stupid

I hope I can be forgiven. I was already dozing off before the episode even started, so I'm just going to give you guys a quick, out-of-order rundown of the action and hit the sack. We can all fill in details in the comments. Honestly, I kind of wanted to RPC the whole damn thing.

I felt ambivalent
Silvia came to see Cris and told him exactly where Aldonza was and where she was sleeping. Which Cris took to mean "sleeping with Renato"...not "she was tired and needed some rest so she took Renato's room while he slept in the guest room." She practically begs Cris to go to the DF and cause a scene so Aldonza will get out of Renato's life. Cris figures out that Silvia loves Renato.

Dominga and Irma discuss their idiot children. Lola is still wanting Emanuel, but she's with that Pato/Ganso/Whatever guy. Mari wants E-man too, but can't seem to see he wants Lola.

Joaquin and Eman have hangovers. They barely remember the night before. They decide Eman can stay with Joaquin. Good. Housing taken care of.

The police go to Las Animas looking for Abelardo. Cande tells them to come back in a few days when her husband is back. She alerts Sev to their visit.

Lardo gets permission from Tomas's parents to stay with them. He catches Pru and Tomas snogging.

I probably shouldn't be ambivalent about this, but Aldonza tells Renata about the wedding plans that didn't pan out because she caught Cris kissing his ex.

Eman does go visit Hum at the office. Hum at least knows he's safe.

La Sombra del Pasado #57 - Wed 5/6 - Nobody's sleeping tonight

As Sev begins to sneak out of his hiding place, gun at the ready, the unhelpful witness and the building super (one guesses) show up.  They're helpfully talking loud enough to warn off whoever it is they think they heard up there, which makes the super's baseball bat all the more ridiculous.  Sev slinks back under his rock as Aldonza, Renato, and the two new arrivals make their way out of the apartment.

Emmanuel, newly homeless, witnesses Pato and Lola dining al fresco on some yummy looking tlacoyos.  Pato tells the following joke:

5/6 #184 Hasta el Fin del Mundo – Alan, ‘member him?


New and Improved Casa de Chava
It’s morning and Marisol isn’t up yet.  Sofia suggests Chava let his sister sleep.  He sure hopes she’s in better spirits today.  As for him, he and Armando are planning to meet with Tavarez.  The surveillance videos are being reviewed and he’s hopeful Lupe’s murderers are caught soon. 

Peralta’s Office – Dulliver’s confused
Geronimo explains he’s designating office space specifically for Proyecto Magnus.  The first phase of construction has begun and before long, the first tower will be completed.  Oliver is confused as to why he needs an entire company set up for the project.  Gerry tells him he’s hired Patricio, to be in charge of the new company.  Dulliver doesn’t understand why he wasn’t put in charge of that company.  Gerry explains he wants Dulliver to work with him in the export/import business, his most important business venture.  As his successor and only heir, Dulliver needs to understand the business perfectly.

La Sombra del Pasado, 05-05-2015, Capítulo 56

Recap by HellaShelle!

Here you go: One recap, light on the snark, heavy on the smh and rolling eyes.

Long story short: Aldie bought into Cande/Val’s tired plot and went back to DF. Emmanuel called Val out and is moving out. Pru slapped Lardo in front of Irma, who asked Mari about it. Mari threw a mini fit because everything’s always about Lardo. Sim called Las Animas for Sev, but Cris picked up and might be suspicious. At the end, Sev is literally lurking in the shadows of the burnt apartment, listening to Ren and Aldonza discuss the situation.

Long version: My recording oddly skipped the refrito and a little of the new, so I come in thinking I’m going to see Aldie rolling her eyes at Val’s ridiculous ploy BUT NO!!! Instead there’s Val leaning on Cris’s shoulder, promising she never meant to get him into this mess. Forgive me, she sighs dramatically. She’s exiting stage right when Cris yanks her back, wondering where the heck she’s going, having apparently imploded his life.

Padre Jeronimo gets a visit from Satan and his wife La Sombra Del Pasado#55 May4th, 2015

Remember: this is a spoiler free zone.

Aldonza and Cris come to the conclusion that Candela did not tell them the whole truth but they swear that the news regrading their parents ugly past won't keep them apart and then they kiss.

Cris leaves and Aldonza picks on her aunt for keeping things from her, she wants to know if her dad ever figured out that his wife was sleeping with Sev, Adelina says Ray did find out but that he did nothing once he learned the truth cause he kinda died. Aldonza tells her that if she finds out that she lied and kept things from her she will never forgive her. That is so not cool. Why does Adelina have to suffer through this? She did nothing wrong!

The next morning Candela is off to torment, visit Padre J and bumps into Cris on the way out, he tells her that Padre J will be going home so her trip will be wasted, then he tells her that he and Aldi don't believe she told him everything that there is to know about Sev/Rob affair, Candela says there's nothing more to the story and Cris reminds her that sometimes people keep secrets when it benefits them. Cande looks pissed.

Hasta El Fin Del Mundo #182 5/4/15 INFERNO

I had extremely bad TV reception Monday night. I couldn't get any more than a second or two of good reception and finally lost the signal altogether. I had to watch this on Hulu without English captions so I'm sure I missed some of the dialogue. Please fill in what I missed in the comments.

From Friday:
We relive scenes from Sofia and Chava's wedding: The rings, the vows, the guests - Alexa looks like she jumped out of the shower in a hurry and just ran a comb through her hair. She looks awful. I notice Isadora is one of the guests, so apparently not all the Peraltas hate the Ripolls. The priest pronounces the couple husband and wife and we get a close up of DZ's sloppy kissing. Mercifully, he doesn't jam his tongue down her throat. Chava tells Sofia that they'll be together till the end of the world. The way he stalked her was there ever any doubt she'd never get rid of him?

  • Armando assumes that Lupe went to heaven and tells Nandito not to expect a dinner invitation for a home cooked meal over at Chava's anymore.  
  • Alexa is bitchin' about Armando to Paolo when she gets a call from Dani.  Dani informs her sister that Lupe was murdered.  Alexa's all shocked, but says that she can't attend the funeral because she has a movie to make.  She sends Chava her condolences and says that she'll call him when she is less busy. 
  • It's standing room only at the funeral and Lupe's body's not warm, but Greta is already making the moves on Don Paco before any of the other hussies from the hood can get to him.  Greta takes her place beside him on the itty bitty pews.  Marisol, Chava and Sophia sit across the aisle from them.  Marisol hopefully eyes the door, but Patrick never appears.  He's in bed with Silvana.

New Telenovela: Lo imperdonable starts May 18, 2015

After complaints that some of our plot summaries were full of spoilers, here is a brief one for the upcoming Lo imperdonable. If you want to recap, write me at caray@mappamundi.com - blog mom.

Martín (Iván Sánchez) hurries to Mina Escondida after getting an urgent letter from his brother begging to be rescued from the hell in which he's living. On arrival, Martin despairs upon finding out that Demetrio (Pablo Montero), his brother, has committed suicide. His sorrow is transformed into hatred and a thirst for vengeance against the woman who caused his brother suffering and brought him to death.

Full of resentment, Martín swears before the tomb of his brother that he will get revenge against this ruthless woman, he will cause her to fall in love and he will drag her to the green hell of this jungle in which he will despise her as she despised his brother.

The first clue to the culprit's identity is a medallion his brother always kept with him, engraved with the name "V. Prado Castelo." Martin returns to the capital, knowing that Prado Castelo is the biggest jewelry business in the country. He aims to grow close to the family. He makes the acquaintance of Emiliano (Sergio Sendel), only heir to the fortune, newly arrived in México after years of absence.

Martín meets Verónica (Ana Brenda) and Virginia (Grettell Valdez), Emiliano's cousins who were adopted by the elder Prado Castelo. Martín is struck by Veronica's beauty and her force of character. He is not, however, her only admirer: Emiliano has returned with the intention of marrying her, having loved her since childhood - not realizing the one who is obsessed with him is Virginia.

Little by little Martin falls in love with Verónica but believes the lies Virginia tells about her, including that she had caused Demetrio to fall in love and had then abandoned him….

Que Te Perdone Dios #74: Color Me Loser

[Man, am I  ready to wash my hands of all these crybabies and whiners or what?  --ed.]
Part 1:
While Mateo eagerly initiates his mulligan mating with true love Abigail (having just confessed that he’s as virginal as she because he’s never truly made love to any woman before her), The Spurned One, aka Diana, continues her harangue to Fausto insisting that Mat and Abi are long-time lovers and a waste of his pussy-whipped time and efforts.  

Them’s fightin’ words of course and Feisty warns Di not to get in his way.  Anybody who does gets trampled on.  Best for her to take her man and skedaddle on out of that hacienda pronto!  (What needs to skedaddle is that exaggerated A/M love-theme extreme!)

Amores con trampa #25 Alcohol turns people around... makes some sick while it brings the dark side in others


At the club, Yoya is confused, she never thought Diego would really be interested in her. Diego forces a kiss on her just in time for Frances to bring in Feli to see them. Feli looks angry but doesn't do anything. Diego gets them all to sit together only for Yoya to have to watch Francis kissing Feli all over.
Beto rants at Gallo about letting Yoya go with that 'pelafustan' (jerk)... Gallo is hessitant to do anything, says 'she looked so pretty!'...  Maria also says 'you know Yoya...' (meaning Yoya is very stubborn)  Perpetua says the same.  Porfirio just wants to watch tele...  Beto insists they have to go get Yoya. Gallo says lets wait till she calls again.  Beto insists, gets louder... says Diego is not that 'straight/proper'.  He tells them Diego is using Yoya to get back at him for taking Rocio away. Porfirio yells that the Carmonas are 'straight' and they have to show that 'tipo' (Diego) that he has to be 'straight' with them. Beto insists they have to go get her. Gallo and Maria and grandma worried, Grandpa looks a bit boozed up to really have any say or thought on the subject.
At club, Diego manages to turn off Yoya's cell phone (so the Carmonas can't call her).  She is spitting/(barfing?) on him, feeling bad for all the booze she has had.  She faints in Feli's arms... He tries to get her to respond.
At the Carmonas, Gallo is getting ansi by now... Porfirio thinks they are talking about killing a pig to make Carnitas... they explain its about Diego... Porfirio repeats one of his classics 'that is not good/right'.    Then Maria uses this situation to repeat her whinning about 'i wanted to go back to the fields'.  
Back at the club, this is all turning totally 180 degrees from what Diego and Francis wanted. far from turning to Frances, Feli still has Carmen in his arms and is really concerned about her, yells at Diego for letting her drink... Yoya is beginning to respond... but bends over when she sees she is in Feli's arms. Feli yells at Francis to take her to ladies room, Francis looks like she would rather peel a whole sack of potatoes than do that...
Isa calls Esteban and threatens him that if he is lying to her about Estefi and Santi NOT being together, he will be sorry. He hangs up with Isa and it turns out Stefi is there with him... he warns Stefi that Isa is more dangerous than she seems. He leaves, Stefi seems to have taken that warning more as a dare from the facial expression she puts...
Back to the club... In ladies room, Francis tells Yoya that she and Feli saw her kissing Diego... she even took pictures. Francis suggests Yoya keep Diego who is free... and assures her she doesn't even exist for Feli.   Francis comes out of ladies room... tells Diego the kiss he gave Yoya was not enough, he has to do his 'thing' with her on the way to take her home... Diego protests, that was not the plan, he does not even want anyone seeing him with Yoya.
In a flash, Diego and Yoya arrive at the Carmona's driveway... Diego tells Yoya he is beginning to like her for real (yeah right!... well, there is a chance he really means this) and kisses her again just in time for Beto and Gallo to see them... Beto goes irate, he wants to beat Diego to a pulp, but Gallo sends him with Yoya to go in the house and warns Diego that if he touched even a hair of Yoya he will be the one to hunt down (no stone unturned) and beat/kill Diego.

La Sombra del Pasado #54 5-1-15 MAY DAY! MAY DAY! THE TRUTH IS OUT!! (or part of it!)



Good evening, Sombra Patio Peeps!  Let’s stop in and see what the fine denizens of Santa Lucia are up to this evening, shall we?  We have a little overlap of Aldonza letting slip that something’s rotten, er burned, in the D.F.  Roberta’s apartment was destroyed by fire!

We interrupt this family discussion to join Cande’s screech fest with Cris, already in progress.   Please see Diva’s wonderful description from yesterday, #53.  Cande stomps out of Cris’s room.  Has anyone else noticed how dark Cris’s room is?  I don’t think it’s just the dark wood and deep blue paint job.  Candela is constantly darkening that poor boy’s door and this is not the last time she’s going to do it today, as we shall see!

It is a bright and lovely morning!  Pru has invited Mari for sundaes, ice coffee or such.  Pru is worried about Vale:  she’s been so emotional since the breakup with Cris.   Mari tries to plead ignorance but finally confesses that Vale came to her house nearly hysterical and looking for Lardo.  Mari tells Pru that Vale and Lardo are “half way” going together and Vale was upset because Aldonza saw her and Lardo kissing and Vale’s afraid Aldonza will tell Cristobal!  Pru is impactada!

Que Te Perdone Dios #73 - The Phantom of the Opera is Here, Inside My Mind

Refrito: Ren and Pat are seated at the blind restaurant. Max calls the Hacienda and Diana tells him where to find Abi.

New: Pat is loving the restaurant, and I have to agree. I think it's very progressive of this novela to show this experience. But there's no call for Pat to start emoting Mat-style, which he does. He spills some wine (that must happen a lot), and then Renata wants Pat to "see" her by touching her face. Before long they are "seeing" each other's faces with their "lips," in an all-out necking session. At least nobody can see them.

Max calls Abi at her hotel and crassly uses his parents' death to generate sympathy, to get her to agree to have dinner with him. After hanging up, he calls her, "Estupida," a la Macaria.

At the secret casino that so many know about, Lucio joins Fausto and Marcelino, and proceeds to get the best of Marcelino. In an indecent proposal, Lucio suggests Marc bet his wife, since he has run out of cash. Elsewhere, Julian and 'Black Hand' (Mano Negra) are satisfied with their first night. Julian reveals that he's not into playing dad for Tono, and that Fausto should be given everything free to keep a good relationship with las autoridades.

La Sombra del Pasado #53 - Thu 4/30 - Nuestros Planes

Well, Aldonza doesn't know how the hell they'll make this work, but she's determined to try.  And Cris swears everything will be fine and he'll make her the happiest woman in the world.  We'll see how long that lasts.

Pato goes into Irma's shop and encounters a Mari-in-the-box, who he claims not to remember all that well from his last visit.  In retaliation for him not falling at her feet, she asks if he's bothered asking Lola's overprotective grandparents for permission to date Lola.  She implies that if he doesn't do that, pitchforks and torches may be in his future.

4/29/15 #179 Wed Hasta el Fin del Mundo – Something Wicked This Way Comes

¯Con la Paz del las Montañas te Amaré¯
Fireplace, lovemaking on the floor, candles, etc.  Sofia and Chava rekindle their amor.

Casa de Chava
Paco is sorry Lupe’s so disappointed with how things turned out but it was best for the truth to come out before Aracely and Chava did something crazy like getting married.  He hopes Aracely doesn’t have to be a single mother and that Pedro will help her.  However, Pedro is hurt that he didn’t know about the pregnancy.  Lupe is sure Pedro will forgive her.  After all, he was there waiting for her to return from the doctor.

La Sombra del Pasado #52 4/29/15

Dear hellashelle,
Please remember that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

The Shortest Version:
  • Cristobal wants to marry Aldonza. Yeah. It's a crazy idea. He gives her time to think about it though. He'll be waiting for her at noon tomorrow at El Santuario. If she doesn't show up, he'll leave her alone for good.. (If you are dying to know what happens, skip to the end of the recap.)
  • Renato talks Silvia into working with him on Aldonza's case. Recapper loses all respect for Silvia when she accepts his offer (Because really girlfriend, this is your only option? Working with the man you love to help him suck up to another woman?)
  • Renato's mother left him a ton of money. At least I assume it's a lot. He seemed gobsmacked and asked if there was some error. Surely that's code for "HOLY CRAP THAT'S A LOT OF ZEROS."
  • Sev slithers out of the accusation that he caused Padre's accident.
  • Valeria tells Aldonza that things are just going *gush*SO WELL*gush* with Cristobal and soon they might be *gush*TALKING ABOUT A WEDDING*gush* (Please note: "gush" is code for "the recapper is puking".)
  • Aldonza calls Val on her sh!t: Hmmm. That's interesting, Val. Because I saw you and Abelardo playing tonsil hockey outside the clinic.
  • Val yells at Abelardo because someone saw them kissing. In the open. In broad daylight. With no shame.
So yeah. That's pretty much the big stuff.

La Sombra del Pasado, 04-28-2015, Capitulo 51

RECAP BY HELLASHELLE
Paragraph summary: Hum realizes Sev’s a monster.
Long paragraph: Humberto is up in arms over Sev’s implied orders, but Sev says he shouldn’t take life so seriously. Especially other peoples’ lives. Besides, he’s only suggesting that Hum help PJ…to die well. Maybe this has opened Hum’s eyes a little because now he can see that Sev’s a monster and he tells him so. Sev says that may be, but they’re the same. The only difference is that Hum’s a hypocrite and Sev isn’t. Hum sits down and tells Sev that’s he’s starting to realize Sev’s much, much worse than he thought. Sev’s glad he’s figured that out because they still have to resolve the matter of El Santuario. He hasn’t pressed about it because he didn’t want to affect Val and Cris’s relationship. Hum notes that there is no relationship anymore, but Sev thinks that that might change. He has the gall to look to heaven and say “with God’s help” on this point, as though he didn’t just ask Hum to kill a priest.

Paragraph summary: Ren updates Aldonza on the apt and the job debacle.
Long paragraph: Aldonza calls Ren for an update. He’s promised the neighbors that they’ll come to a fair recompense for the damage. Aldonza wants to know where they’ll get the money. Ren again advises her to fix and sell the apartment. She doesn’t want to, but she’ll think about it. Yes, he says, but they don’t have much time. Meanwhile, she asks what he’s going to do about his job situation. He’ll look elsewhere, but he’ll take Pato and Silvia with him wherever he goes because they also got fired because of this whole thing. Oh, well in that case, Aldonza agrees, it’s the least he can do for them. He hopes Silvia’s open to the idea because she won’t even talk to him right now. Aldie advises him to give her time.

Que te Perdone Dios Capitulo 71 - 50 Shades of Dumbo (Discussion& Recap)

Sit tight as I work on the recap!  I have really  accustomed to the opening to be honest but i would have still preferred  this song : . What's your opinion?

On to the recap:



Refritos:  It's a repeat of the scene between Max and Dan. She after Max has mocked her supposed loss ( Just let it live by said Max)  proceeds to inform Max that the reason they travel without a Heli is cause his parents went to the otro mundo! Max is in denial of course.


Present:   Mat  who always has a never ceasing  head of imaginations & blunders furiously   reclaims Ab's in her face that he now hates her despite having loved her once. Ab's as much we are is pithed as hell cause Mat claims she betrayed Ren's trust and because Mat is  so ingenious with his imaginations he could build a Fausto out of Lego's but it would still inevitably transform into Satan  ( Imagine no more  Fausto's , one age full of darts wohohoo!)  .  Abi exclaims that she has not betrayed Ren's trust. Mat claims her intimate life is no concern for him but he still hates Ab's for being so cruel  and serene with him but especially cause he will never be hers.  Abi says to the thick-head she unfortunately has no heart to hate , she only feels love. Mat calls her a liar and Ab's after he having left squeals in frustration. Ab's 5 , Mat 0.

Que Te Perdone Dios #70 on Monday, April 27th, 2015. (Julion and Tono do take after each other alright!)

Mateo (Drippin' Wet) and Fausto

Mateo (unfortunately in board shorts and not a banana hammock like Jorge Aravena has done before) has hopped out of the pool and talks with Fausto. He thought Fausto had gone out with Abigail and he did' into the city. Mat is amazed and Fausto cuts what could be the beginning of an argument off. That was futile because Mat doesn't believe this sudden closeness with Abi.

4/28 #179 Hasta el Fin del Mundo – Beware the wrath of Geronimo


Casa de Chava
Chava  finds Aracely knitting away and confronts her, “I want the truth!  Who’s the daddy?  Me or Pedro?”  Aracely doesn’t know what Pedro may have told him but she assures Chava that he’s the baby-daddy!  She would never lie when it comes to “their” child!  She admits she took advantage that night, but this baby she’s carrying is the result of that marvelous night they had together.  Chava knows she was with Pedro shortly before that night.  Aracely can’t even look him in the eye when she admits sleeping with Pedro,  “It was a big mistake on my part since I knew it’s you who I truly love.  I know my cycle and know when I conceived.  I have no doubt you’re the father of this baby.”  Chava apologizes for being such a cad but this does involve knowing whether or not that child is his or someone else’s!  He can’t trust her assumption the baby is his. He insists on a doctor’s opinion.  Aracely brings on the waterworks, “Please believe me, this is your child!” waaaaaah.   Chava insists, “For the good of everyone involved, we have to be sure about the baby-daddy!  I can’t see myself living a lie my entire life that will eventually eat away (carcomer) at my soul!”

La Sombra del Pasado #50 4-27-15 She's Aliiiiiive!!!



Let’s pick up where we left off!  Abelardo bolts down the stairs of Aldonza’s apartment building, exits and crosses the street, five-gallon gas can in full view.  He stops and calls Sev to tell him the job is done.  Sev is pleased and instructs him to return to Santa Lucia.  When Sev takes this call he is already at the Police Station and goes in immediately to talk to the Chief, who greets him warmly.  Sev has stopped by to inform the Chief that a nasty rumor is going around that he is involved in Padre J’s accident.  No alarms go off for the Chief that he’s not heard this “rumor” before.  Sev reminds the Chief he has had problems with this family making false accusations before.  The Chief remembers.  Sev has come to get the Chief’s assurance that he will do everything in his power to do a thorough investigation and make sure the ravings of Aldonza don’t soil his sterling reputation and honorable name.  The charges are all the more painful as everybody knows nobody loves and respects Padre Jeronimo more than him and his family.  The Chief assures Sev he will look into the matter with the ultimate care and attention to the law.  Sev leaves and the Chief wears a look I can’t quite figure out; determined pissivity?  “Here we go again?”

Amores con Trampa #21 & #22 4/27/15-4/28/15

Today was a really trying day at work, but tonight's episode made me forget all my woes. Ernesto Laguardia just gets better and better!

Straight to the new!

María spent the night worrying. Facundo never made it home. They've fought before, but he didn't stay away all night. Abuela tells Maria to wait until he gets home and they can talk things over. Women know how to turn their husbands around. Maria laments that Facundo even turned off his phone. Her finger is swollen from calling him all night! Abuelo comes in and tells them to change up breakfast...except for the boiled eggs. Carmen and Beto also arrive and Carmen asks about her father. Beto is a chip off the old block and blames his mother (that's María) for Facundo's absence. Jacinto and Susana are the BEST!! Jacinto doesn't give a rip if Beto is bigger--he tells his big brother not to talk to his mother that way. Susana gets in there too...fists ready for action. Go girl! Beto repeats that if Facundo spent the night elsewhere, it's María's fault.

At the hotel Isa prays that God forgive her for what she's about to do. It's the only way for the family to avoid ruin. She snuggles up to a naked Facundo. He wakes up with a start. They both start freaking out. Poor Facundo tries to make sense of things "What happened? Did it happen? Did it not happen? Ay Dios mío! I don't remember!" Isa does "remember". EVERYTHING happened! She starts to apologize as Facundo begins to worry about María finding out. In comes Santiago!

Quiero Amarte (Week 32-Apr 27) Highlights & Discussion

Please step into our voting booth. We invite you to select the size anvil for the characters who have done the most to derail the happiness of our main couples, Amaya/Max and Mariana/Iván. However, note this is not a secret ballot. If you wish to amplify your choices with comments, you are invited to do so.

There are four sizes:
1. Full-body size (FBS)—the character will not recover and most likely will serve time in a confined space (this could include a coffin, e.g. Horacio Espinoza)
2. Rib-crushing size (RCS)—the character will recover but will be disgraced (e.g. Constanza)
3. Leg-fracturing size (LFS)—the character will be inconvenienced for having been mean or aided and abetted a major antagonist (e.g. Becca)
4. Nail-breaking size (NBS)—the character is unaware they caused any harm or interfered (e.g. Vale at her snotty worst)

We know certain characters have tried to wreck the lives and plans of other characters (like Cesar did to Lucio and Manuel), but let’s stick to the main protagonists. Dig back into your memory banks and pull out some who may have faded into the mists on Mexican mountains.  Have Fun.

Que Te Perdone Dios #69: Love Means Letting Go, Or Maybe Not


Abigail gives Diego another go at the marriage go-round; they and Renata agree amongst themselves to keep it secret for a while.

Macaria threatens Renata to keep Abi by her side (and to fill her mind with gawd knows what trash about Ren) instead of leaving the rancho.  Her only goal is to now needle Ren at every turn.  Ren reminds her that she’s the servant; she’s to stop dissin’ her, and to start addressing her with “usted.” Mac needles her as only Mac can with “ustedito’s”.  Grrrr!

La Sombra del Pasado #49 4-24-15 The Stolen Kiss!



We have a brief overlap of the conversation between Adelina and Aldonza.  Aldonza admits that she is not happy but she will be one day, that happiness being contingent on making Sev pay for all his offenses.  The main thrust of the scene is Adelina’s firm rejection of Aldonza’ s suspicion that Cris is as perverse as his parents and her doubting her love for him.  Adelina tells her to trust her heart; it’s one thing that he is their son and raised by them but quite another that he would ever hurt Padre J.  Adelina tells her never to forget that Cris loves her as much as she loves him!

Lic. Serrano wants Reanato’s resignation on his desk NOW!  Serrano shuts down Sylvia and Pato and send them away so he can chew Renato out some more.  Serrano is unmoved by Renato’s accepting responsibility and asking pardon and tells Renato to get his cases in order for his successor:  there are lots of candidates who want an opportunity like he just threw away!

Across town there’s another chewing out going on.  Pru accuses Juana of taking the Humberto’s watch and gives her an ultimatum:  if she doesn’t find it, she is fired!  Hum intervenes and rescues Juanita from Pru’s hypocritical claws.

Ay, Candela is still wearing what she wore the previous night and we find her in her bedroom feverishly praying with a rosary.  Dominga knocks and Cande tearfully bids her to enter, affectionately calling her “Nana.”  Dominga sees Cande is distraught and crying.   Cande pulls Dominga down to the bed where she sits and holds her hand.  Cande cries that Jeronimo can’t die!  Dominga gently reminds Cande that she’s always been strong and she can’t get weak now.  Dominga coos to her that she’ll draw her a nice hot bath, it will help her relax, and leads her to the bathroom.

Amores con Trampa April 24 2015... the fashion show wrapped in deceptions, dissappointments and appologies. and one villain team mystery solved... i see duos of villains everywhere...

Refritos:
Pancha tries to convince Chabelle that she needs to pull Fel away from Car or she will have to get used to the 'farm channel' scent of the month.
Lo nuevo:
Carmen is showing Fel some of her modeling steps she will use in the catwalk... (eh... pastorela... eh... pasarela).   Carmen is very excited about the modeling stint.  Chabelle asks Fel if he is trading Pancha for Carmen.   She says she can tolerate the Carmonas but she does not want the farmers to join the 'family'
Maria and Facundo in bedroom(they are wearing ALMOST matching plaid pajama pants)... she wants to talk to him about the knitting... he is excited to announce to her they will celebrate their anniversary in a BIG way.  (are we talking elephants or giraffes instead of horses and goats now?)
Next morning the lovebirds are telling the rest of the family about the celebration plans. Mother Galla warns them they have to hide all the valuables for the celebration so none of them dissappear.  El Gallo wants everyone to know what a great perfect wife he has.
nighttime... at Velascos, Chabelle is getting ready (quite ellegant outfit/jewelry) for the fashion show.  Santi asks if tonight will be THAT special.  why spend so much on HER outfit?  She argues she feels useful and valuable for the first time in a long time. SHe does not think his presence would add much. He is happy to hear that, more time to spend with his Steffffi.
Maria and Carmen are getting dressed. Susana and Margarito (the pig) come in. the others ask her not to tell on them.
Maria and Carmen get to go out, Facundo only ranted a little about the length of Carmen's skirt.
Meanwhle Steffffiiii is with Estevan... they are toasting to deceiving Santi and the farmer and will end up with all the farmer's money... jajajajaja...
Maria and Carmen have made it to the dressing area of the fashion show.  The designer is there to help Carmen get ready.   He yells at all the makeup/stylists just lke a good designer would. He has a surprise. The last model is none other than... the white rabit!... nah... Wendy Thomas!... nah... none other than PANCHA!!!! Carmen not a happy camper, rather she looks like someone just took her ice cream away. To add insult to injury Fel came in with Pancha.
Santi finds Steffi's door locked. Estevan is hiding behind a plant while Steffi is tryng to calm down Santi who is miffed at finding the door locked.
Chabelle is working the next step of her plan... she tells El Gallo that his wife lied to him, she deceived him and never stopped working on the shawls. she is now at the fashion show.  El Gallo looks like he just saw his favorite hen  necking with the Gallo from three hen houses down.

Weekend Discussion: Misogyny and Sexism Need an Executioner



I'm in step with those who are watching Amores Con Trampa but still catching up to La Sombra del Pasado (cap 25) and Que Te Perdone Dios (cap 34), but the sexism is getting to me.  I totally get that rural environments are often more sexist than urban ones and what's going on in ACT makes a certain amount of sense.  However in the 21st century are the other two even close to reality anymore?
