Line 7:
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.
* [[Action Girl]]: between the adults, Nora and Rebeca (and maybe María). Among the girls, Julia and perhaps Carol.
Line 21:
* [[Bilingual Bonus]]: the flashbacks conversations in German.
* [[Bittersweet Ending]]: sure, the students are healthy, Iván is with Julia, the Espí siblings are finally together and with Marcos, Paula and Samuel, the still surviving members of the Proyecto Géminis have been arrested but... {{spoiler|Carol, Marcos' greatest love, is dead}}, {{spoiler|Elsa, Héctor's former girlfriend, is dead}}, {{spoiler|Fermín died in the hands of María, with whom he had gotten married just two days before}}, {{spoiler|Iván has Alzheimer}} and {{spoiler|the school has been destroyed by the main characters in a ploy to distract the bad guys}}.
* [[Blessed
* [[Boarding School]]: it is where 99% of the series takes place.
* [[Boarding School of Horrors]]: not exactly like that for nearly everyone in the school (in fact it's quite nice). It gains this category for the main teenager characters when they realise what the hell is actually going on and the bad guys know that the teens are in the secret.
Line 41:
* [[Dawson Casting]]: [[Averted Trope|Averted]] at the start of the series, because the main teenager characters' and the actors' ages were quite similar - never more than 1 or 2 years older. Four years later, the difference was about 4-5 years.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Iván and Julia.
* [[Death
* [[Draco in Leather Pants]]: one of the greatest examples is Hugo, who was shown to be a very bad person practically from the first episode he appeared in, yet he has been regarded as one of the most attractive guys in the series.
** Jacques Noiret is also a good example. He was cruel to his son and even to Elsa when she was his girlfriend, but several girls and women like him. His eleventh-hour [[Heel Face Turn]] didn't help matters.
Line 57:
* [[Fake Defector]]: María is blackmailed to get information about the Organization. After a first half-assed attempt that fails completely, she confesses to Fermín what she was trying to do and then turns into this.
* [[Fanfic]]: [http://www.zonaelinternado.com/ ZonaElInternado] hosts a community of Fanfic writers (it's in Spanish).
* [[Fan Nickname]]: Amaia suffers the most from this. In an interesting case, the fans at Zona El Internado (the biggest community of fans for this TV series) called her Heidi (after [[Heidi
* [[Fetish Fuel]]: try to see those beauties such as Ana de Armas or Blanca Suárez in those uniforms and not think they look really hot.
* [[Flash Back]]: how many of the most important details are presented to the viewers.
Line 73:
** Carol appears in ''Una rosa de Francia'' and ''Mentiras y gordas'', this one also with Iván.
** Vicky's mother is played by Lolita, who is Elena Furiase's real life mother.
** One for the whole world: Jacques Noiret also has a hotel in [[
* [[Hoist
* [[Human Popsicle]]: the most important one is Eva {{spoiler|Wulf: she has been held in a criogenization machine since 1945 (the series start in september 2007 and ends in october 2008) and cloned twice so that her father could invent a cure for [[The Virus]] he had created and she had been accidentally infected with}}. Also, Julia becomes this for a few seconds {{spoiler|when Eva attempts to force her to go to the underground passageways and free her}} and nearly dies from hypothermia.
* [[Identical Grandson]]: Justified. Paula looks exactly like her mother at age 6 {{spoiler|and her sort-of-aunt Eva}} because she is a clone of her mother. Of course, Carlota García ends up playing all of them.
Line 81:
* Informed Judaism: Fermín. [[Justified Trope]] since {{spoiler|it's not convenient to be "too jewish" in a place filled with nazis}}.
* [[Irony]]: in one of the first episodes, Roque, with the help of Cayetano and Iván, pulled a prank on María where Roque simulated that he had hanged himself in the bathroom. In season 7, he nearly kills himself by hanging on the shed, but stops because someone enters the shed. The day before everyone is healed, he is found hanging from a tree. {{spoiler|He didn't actually commit suicide, but was killed by [[The Mole|Lt Garrido]] and he simulated his suicide so that he didn't get caught.}}
* [[Jerk
* [[Kill It
* [[May-December Romance]]: Marcos enters a relationship with Amelia, the 5 and 6-years-old teacher, after he realises that being with Carol would be very difficult due to his friendship with Iván. Amelia ends up being fired for having a romantic relationship with a student, but she comes back later. {{spoiler|She was being blackmailed into seducing Marcos so that the [[Big Bad]] could learn what the teenagers knew about the conspiracy.}}
* [[McLeaned]]: This happened to {{spoiler|Carol}} after {{spoiler|Ana de Armas}} decided to leave the series.
