Imperio de mentiras, Capitulo 69 COMPLETE, Thursday, 01/07/20 The mother of all flashbacks... almost


We start with this gem of a dialogue, worthy of Shakespeare at the very least.

The scene: Leo and Dario, separated by cell bars, both unshaved, because of fashiouuuun.

“I’m going to ask you again, for a last time, pinky promise! Are you Eugenio Serrano’s son?”

“Find out on your own, you’re a big shot cop!”

“Now, 50 episodes later, I understand what you meant when you said we had a common enemy.”

“You don’t know where to go or what to think! You’re stuuuupid!”

“Am not! Eww killed Julia and Augusto, am I right?”

“Que estupido! Like I would ever answer that question!”

“It’s for you own sake, for your venganza! Or would you rather rot in this jail, without phone privileges? Let’s work together, things could change for you! You could have a reduced sentence.”

“By how much? 5, 10 years? Neah, this no longer interest me. Guard?” 

And it’s the delinquent who leaves the decorated cop shouting for him, while he strolls away smirking, not a care in the world.

Imperio de Mentiras, 1/5/21, #68: The Big Reveal - NOT


DarthDario's manhood has been assured for eternity as he's been told that Majo's preggers.  Hell no he won't reject her/it/them!  He loves the idea!  He assures Majo that he's never going to be the kind of psychopath papi that his papi obviously was.  BUT, speaking of psychopathic pappies...nobody but nobody, not even her sisters or mother (gawd forbid!) must learn about this--especially El Tio Ewwy--which of course means that the whole of DF will know posthaste, forthwith, aka, ASAP.   

Meanwhile, at the Cantu No-Can-Do casota, Elisa continues to mope; she remembers Christina's femme fatale fantasy regarding her mythical, hot, heavenly, and...er... bosomed-buddy relationship with Leonardo.  El flashes back to Cruel Chrisie's ultimate opportunity to save worthless Majo's gluteus maximus.   Either El abandons Leo for good. or Majo's going down as Dario Ramirez's willing accomplice (which we all know she was, the stupid twit).

Imperio de Mentiras Lunes 1/04/21, Chapter 67: Confrontations

No one here gets out alive.”

Mauricio told Majo that he had the proof of what had been done to Renata. She asked him to send it to her phone but he said he needed to show it to Renata. He wanted to see her, but Majo told him that was not possible. She explained that Renata had another crisis fit and was being heavily medicated. He began having a fit at this news, telling her that the medications were meant to make her forget what she knew. As he began stimming he told her that he was certain that Victoria ordered this. Majo said she would return when he had calmed down, but Mauricio insisted on talking to Renata. He flapped his arms a bit more before sitting down. [What medications are they shooting him up with?]

Imperio de Mentiras #66, 1/1/21: In Which Some Lies Are Revealed, But More Are Told to Keep the Balance

Ay, Caray! I didn't realize the show was on tonight, so I hope you like it quick & dirty...

JL assures a hollow-eyed Leslie that the whole Adri thing was just a reaction to Tere's nostalgia-bonking with Raymundo and the eyeful she just got was their goodbye kiss, honest. That man has no shame.

Accountant guy tells Fer that Augie always took good care of all of them and especially her -- Augie really loved her, he told him so himself. (So is Augie supposed to be a good guy now, or are we on our fifth team of writers?) Fer offers him part of the cash to help her get the settlement, but he says he isn't in it for the ducats, he just wants to do what's right. For sure we won't be seeing him again. He doesn't fit in with the plot at all.

Fab gets Majo to sign the Very Important Papers by showing her that Elisa already okayed them. Dramatic music. 

Adri tells Leo that it was Mario who tipped Cris off about Elisa's surrender. And that's not all -- now IA is investigating JL, when all he did was meet with Eugenio to talk him out of pressing charges against Leo when he got all up in his grill at Marcelo's funeral. 

No puede ser! Leo can't believe Cris suspects his brother. Has he forgotten how recently he suspected his brother? Has he forgotten that inexplicably enormous secret bank account? Have we? The writers certainly have. Maybe Sonia found it in JL's glove box and is now living it up on the Riviera Maya with her mom, El Pinqui, and Raymundo's dog.

Imperio de mentiras, Wednesday, #65, 12/30/20 The sick, the hurting and the insane

 Leo and Dario are in a fight for their lives. The gun goes off  and … Leo is on the ground, wounded, while Majo and Piedad look on in shock. Leo is well enough to asks Majo to call the cops, Piedad wants to call a doctor. Dario screams that he was only defending himself, while Majo finally calls for medical help.

Renata has been sedated by Creepy Oscar, who is back in the picture. Vic doesn’t know what got her so hot and bothered, wants a stronger sedative, since she’s afraid Ren might wake up and hurt her. She also wants the nurse to spend the night. Oscar says there is no need for another sedative, Ren will sleep through the night. Vic suggests committing her again, even Oscar seems to think this is too much.

Imperio de Mentiras 12/29/20 #64: Chaos, Criminals, And Co-Depency Reign Or I've Got Your Number

[This was done without the benefit of CC and perfect audio.  Please correct what I have incorrectly interpreted.--edit.]

Elisa is remanded back to prison to await her sentence for trafficking artworks and money-laundering.  It will be upwards of 25 years.  Leonardo goes berserk and quite loudly calls into question the judge's...er... lack of insight and moderation in sentencing guidelines.   To make matters worse, Fabricio and Victoria are the first to blame him for Elisa's conviction.  He's won and gotten what he'd always wanted from associating with her! Renata reminds her mother that Leo has been the only one trying to clear her name and begs him to get to the bottom of this injustice so El will eventually go free.

At the same time, Eugenio's lead henchman denies he or his gang had anything to do with Dario's escape.  Ewwy demands his henchmen find out then who did help Dario to break out of the prison van.  He is offering them $1 million US as a reward to whoever hands Dario over to him that by that evening.

Hitchcock couldn't think of psychos worse than these.


In the midst of a conversation about Elisa, Dario put Fabricio in a headlock from which he managed to escape. They talked about working together to bring Eugenio down. Fabricio said he needed a week to gain the old creep's confidence. Dario probably took that under advisement, as he said nothing in return.Read more »

Coming to a Screen Near You...in 2021

Greetings, Caraymates and Happy Holidays!

 

Another telenovela year comes to an end and I’m sure you are wondering what 2021 has in store for us. In last year’s “Coming Soon” pages, I listed some TNs that are yet to be seen, but have already aired in Mexico. These include: Soltero Con Hijas and La Mexicana y El Güero; so, we may see these some time next year. As for “new” TNs, grab a seat in the patio and let me tell you what I know (or have found). Before I start, I do want to put in some disclaimers—

The information you are about to read was gathered from a variety of sources including, “Univision,” “People en Español,” “La Opinion,” “Wikipedia,” “Forbes,” “Las Estrellas,” and "MediaVillage”.  The articles/webpages read are dated from as far back as Spring, 2020; so changes may have been made by the powers that be in the production companies (and I am not privy to the changes). As you will note, I have very little information about release dates, but this page will be updated periodically throughout the 2021 year with any additional information I come across. If you have current or more accurate information to share, please do so; it will be greatly appreciated and used to update the page. So onward we go---

Imperio de Mentiras 12/22/20, #61: The Big Cheese, The Big Squeeze, And A Chatty Sleaze Or Two



At the prison, Elisa's benefactor during her prison stay, she learns,  is none other than Christina, who reminds El that their deal is she keeps her distance from Leonardo, his family and his friends and then Chrissie Baby sees that Leo keeps his job, his reputation and no doubt his sheets warm.  Above all she's not to mention to anyone that Leo helped her to hide from the law.  El tells Chrissy not to let the door hit her where the good lord split her and if she never sees her again it would be too soon.  Chrissy just snickers "--See ya soon." and struts her stuff back the way she came.

In the barrio, Nieves begs Clara not to leave with Renata Cantu and Sofia.  Clara tells Mama to back off but in much richer terms.  As Ren's car pulls out, Jose Luis's car pulls in.  Nieves explains that  Poor LIttle Rich Girl Ren is El's sister, who just took Sonia,  who was there to speak to Leo to make a formal statement about someone who had hurt her; Ren has rushed the woman off to her house after learning that Sonia's preggers with Ren's dead hubby's baby.

Imperio de Mentiras Lunes 12/21/20, Chapter 60: Going Places

I am on leave for a couple of weeks; see you in the New Year My assistant presents just the facts for the duration. – Dashiell Hammett


Elisa surrendered to the police and asked Leo not to interfere. Christina must have been cheering in her addled head. She did not want Leo to talk to Elisa alone, insisting that she had to be taken to the reclusorio immediately. He asked her how low she intended to stoop. She told him she would allow two minutes. Her madness was obvious. She had classified Elisa as “dangerous” and an escape risk.

She closed the door and watched through its window as Elisa told Leo she said she would do this. She was innocent, but looked as though she was tired of running away. She had been forced into this by Dario. He was upset and unsure what to do. She was determined to fight and asked him not to abandon her. She embraced him and when he did in return Christina ordered Adriana and Mario to break them up.Read more »

Imperio de Mentiras #59, 12/18/20: You'll Never Walk Alone. Don't Even Try.

THE NIGHT BEFORE

Grand Central Love Shack

Leo finally comes out of the Little Policeman's Room to discover Cris has vaporized and Elisa is in a funk. She wants to turn herself in. He doesn't want her to. Adri and Mario walk in and say the coast is clear, so they group up into a convoy to go back to Mexico. 

Leo asks Adri to pep Elisa up while he phones his mom, so she climbs into the driver's seat and says hey. El wants to know if Leo and Cris were a thing, but Adri waves that off. Elisa also feels bad that Adri and Mario are risking their careers for her. She doesn't want to make any more trouble. Adri tells her that she and Mario are Leo's best friends, and Elisa is the most important person in the world to Leo, and that's why they will never leave her alone. Elisa sniffs prettily. 

Can't-Do War Room

The New Can't-Do Trio are still hashing out what to do about Dario's mom when Ren suddenly remembers what she's been reading in the Caray comments all week: she has an apartment! Why don't they take Piedad there? Then she realizes Clara and Majo aren't listening, so she leaves them alone to work out their girl stuffs.

Majo tries to friendzone Clara, but Clara isn't sure she can deal. Majo goes on to give a pretty impressive explanation of trauma-bonding as the reason both she and Clara are attached to the wrong people. Clara politely does not point out that at least she never pointed a gun at her, bled all over her, or made her get naked on the phone. 

Mea Culpa Hospital

Elisa and Leo arrive for Velasco support duty, with Adri and Mario on their heels. JL pulls Adri aside and rips her a new one for showing her face in front of his family: "You make me feel dirty!" What a tool.

JL and Leo go off to sign some Very Important Papers regarding Leslie's treatment, and Sara comforts gloomy Elisa. She tells her she saved Leo from drowning in his own grief. He truly loves her, and so he will never leave her alone. If I were Elisa, I'd be starting to feel a teensy bit claustrophobic right about now. 

Leslie wakes up and asks for Leo. She wants him to tell her what's really wrong; she knows her parents will shine her on. "Be brave!" he tells her. "You have The Only Childhood Disease in Mexico, but you're young and strong and we're all here for you and we will never, ever leave you alone." Leslie starts to cry, probably because she realizes she will not have a moment of privacy for the rest of her natural life.

Imperio de Mentiras, Ep. 58, 12/17/2020: Blondie Dim Bulb on da run, but Psycho Booty Got a Gun

 

We have a repeat of Leo whisking off to check out while Crisbitch lurks behind and glares at the cabin where she assumes Eliesa must be hiding. She takes a revolver out of her purse.

At the Grupo Can’tDo, Fab is taking care of business when he gets a call from Ewww’s minion. A messenger will deliver the documents Fab is to sign—documents to certify and confirm shipments. Minion also tells him to look through Eliesa’s paperwork for pricing certificates and he is to duplicate the prices. They need the documents today, so, the messenger will wait for the signed documents. Fab walks out of his office and runs into Fer who hands him the documents which have just been given to her by the messenger. After he grabs them and turns to leave, Fer comments, “You are doing exactly what Augusto did, or rather, you are doing what your father wants.”

Imperio de mentiras, #57, Wednesday, 12/16/20 The hidden and the unhinged

 Just some bullet points this time, I'm typing the recap as I'm watching (and then putting scenes together, with a little bit of snark on the side).

Adriana gives up on Mario’s friendship because of JLow’s sick control over her. And then screams at him that he can't control her life. Yeah...

The happy Fabrapoodle family are waiting on the DNA results. Fab thinks Fer is a worthless whore (his exact words basically), he’s going to fight for Juanito if he's his son.

Imperio de Mentiras 56, 12/14/20: Upping The Anti As The Bad News Bears Come Knocking

 


Leonardo and Elisa are stuck at the roadblock being checked by the officer in charge. "My wife doesn't need an ambulance; she has a headache because she doesn't have the medicine I left at the hotel.  We just need to get that."  Finally, we've got a cop who can relate to spousal guilt trips;  he relents and lets them pull out of the roadblock.  Lucky for Leo and El (and the telenovela gods) that in this little corner of the alternate universe Mexico's police use walkie-talkies still instead of slick cell phones or laptops with Instagram and twitter-sharing options in their cop cars......

Back at Grupo Cantu, Renata still has her funky uncky Eugenio corralled and is laying her cards on the proverbial poker table.  She's seen the report where the type of nefarious operation performed on her is discussed in glorious detail.  All she wants to know is who the heck gave them permission to do that to her.  Ewwy diverts and skirts asking if she really thinks him capable of harming her.  She is his favorite of them all and knows this.  Truly, she's been off her meds too long and needs to continue taking them.  He kisses her and hugs her as Viewerville has visions of a mafioso's last kiss to the condemned.

Imperio de Mentiras Lunes 12/14/20, Chapter 55: So Little Time

Time is everything. We can't buy it back or sell it and it always has the last word. – Dashiell Hammett

Leo looked at Christina with suspicion. She said “We're going to talk about Julia and Elisa, but first I want to talk about me.” He was not looking for a crash course on black widow spiders.
