El Internado: Difference between revisions

 

However, things soon take a turn towards the weird and mysterious when one of the professors, Alfonso Ceballos (Paco Merino) tells Carol and Vicky that they are in danger of dying, and disappears a few days later. From there on, the teenagers start to investigate what happened to him, without knowing that behind of not only Alfonso's disappearance, but also Marcos' parents' disappearance and indeed the very past and future of everyone living in the school is an old conspiracy tied to the origins of the boarding school as an orphanage and the actions of a group of people trying to prevent that conspiracy from actually taking fruit.

* [[Abusive Parents]]: Jacques Noiret killed his own wife when Iván was 1 year old, and the next fifteen years he mistreated both his son and all of his girlfriends. This has many consequences in that Iván has a very hard time to connect with other people, and a time later Iván testifies against his father.

* [[Arc Number]]: 07 15 24 35 44 57. They appear in the third-to-last episode, but they become fundamental as they are required to make the healing machine work. Sharp-eyed fans realised why those numbers were chosen: they were the numbers of the first episodes of each season, starting with season 2.

* [[Badass]]: Fermín is this, all the way to hell.

* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: Iván pulls this off several times: the first to save María from an armed man, the second to save Julia from her former lover {{spoiler|(who is also one of the bad guys)}}, the third to save Julia from dying when [[It Makes Sense in Context|the top of the water she is having a hot bath in is suddenly frozen by Eva]].

** Héctor manages to pull this off in the end of the series, preventing a group of soldiers from shooting at the teenagers (amongst them {{spoiler|his nephew and niece}} Marcos and Paula).

* [[Slap Slap Kiss]]: the initial basis for Iván and Julia's relationship.

* [[Superpower Lottery]]: surprising for this kind of TV series, four characters have something that could be said to be a superpower. Julia (2nd season) sees ghosts and can talk with them, Lucas (4th season) can dream with the future, Rebeca (5th season) can see the bad things people have done by touching them and Max (7th season) is able to hijack people's dreams in order to talk with them.

* [[Tear Jerker]]: {{spoiler|Cayetano's death}} in between the 1st and 2nd season.

** Most fights {{spoiler|between Iván and Julia}} and {{spoiler|Marcos and Carol}}.
