A lot of the people (mostly girls 🙄) that criticise Carla for breaking up with Polo because she’s “biphobic” are male identified and need to get over the fact that Carla has the self esteem to end a relationship with someone who betrayed her trust over some dick! (Idc if he was exploring 🤷♀️) and it was obvious from the start that miss Carla always called the shots and doesn’t play about cheating and betrayal. Carla tried to save their relationship with Christian and Polo ended that relationship with his betrayal with Christian. 🤷♀️
Lu and Guzman, had the potential to represent the social dynamics of the “ELITE” 🤷♀️ Lu had more legitimacy than Guzman in terms of status and birth. Although foreign, she is a diplomat’s daughter, upper class white Latina who probably comes from a descendant of Hispanic conquistadors in her family tree, hence her status and wealth. Guzman’s family was rich, now corrupt and he’s only claim to his status was by his adoptive family. The show did a disservice to Lu and what she meant to Guzman. It made sense as to why they were together, he needed her on his arm to be fully accepted into “their” world. That’s why Guzman was so insecure and made those unnecessary xenophobic, classist remarks because he knew he was not “equal” to Carla, Polo and even the foreign Lu. If his birth parents didn’t overdose, he would’ve never been apart of that world. Albeit toxic there should’ve emphasized on why Lu believed her and Guzman were the power couple she always thought they were.
Guzman and Nadia is not the pure 🥺🥺🥺 they keep pushing around. Guzman “changed” for his love for Nadia but can’t even defend her when Lu says something racist and islamophobic around her 🤔 💀 it’s built on chliches so your expected to like it but it’s ultimately Guzman has a soft spot for the poor Nadia, after trying to set her up to get raped and humbled for Lu and only stopping coz she’s drugged 🙄 and he falls for her so yayyyyyyy Nadia is the therapist that helps the deranged white boy 👏👏👏 bad boy x good girl is so cringe and disgusting when the “bad boy” is only soft for ONE person 🤮 “he’s toxic but his love for y/z tho 😍😍” Nadia’s character had a lot of potential if they used this romance to highlight problematic social issues and ideas but yeh it kinda peaked s1. I felt like Nadia could’ve been a better change in Guzman if she pushed him to unlearn his toxic masculinity and beliefs but I also don’t want her story to be revolved around a relationship.
Polo x Ander would be too self destructive to work 🤷♀️ And they prefer their friendship
Polo x Ander x Guzman - This friendship was sooooo forced pls 😭 they grew out of eachother and Guzman just wanted to control them 💀 Ander checked out a long time ago and Polo stayed because he’s a coward. It should’ve stayed in primary school and just brought up for nostalgia 🤷♀️ Polo x Ander were obviously closer because they wanted Guzman to back off them so yeh
Christian x Ander, Samuel x Omar >>>>> GuzmanxPoloxAnder
We didn’t need to see Samuel simping for Carla after he used her to find the truth 🤷♀️ these rich toxic girls are no good, especially with their corrupt fathers, you learnt that with Marina, Samuel 🤦🏾 this bitch had Nano incarcerated and snitched on Christian, nearly killing him💀 Samuel falling for Carla’s damsel in distress victims card made him very nieve again 🙄 Samuel’s and Carla’s arch in s3 would’ve been better off exposing Theodore, Carla’s dad. Their dynamic would work since Carla wants her freedom from her father and Samuel would get justice for his old school and somewhat satisfaction for the pain that Carla’s dad caused which lead him to the hell that is Las Encina’s. Side note- Samuel’s character would’ve been better following his s1,ep1 arch, when he was outraged at Marina’s father for covering up and causing his old school’s collapse, but instead they made him fall for the rich, white damsel in distress girls like Marina and Carla, evading them of their actions and consequences 😐
Lu x Nadia was bad writing 🤷♀️ if you thought Nadia couldn’t get any dumber, she befriends and gives half her scholarship to Lu... the same girl who gave her a reason to even apply for her scholarship 😭 pls Elite, Lu never even apologised to Nadia and will likely ditch her when she encounters a group of “Latinos por Trump” in New York 😍
Valerio and Nadia had potential with the chemistry they had and I bet those too can actually kiss better than Guzman and Nadia mess...
Omar needed to leave Ander for his own mental health and independent storyline but the writers prefered Omar as Ander’s punching bag 🤷♀️ Omar getting accepted by his parents in s3 is a better storyline that should’ve been used than his struggles with Ander and Malick 👏
Cayetana and Polo should’ve been had the Bonnie and Clyde arch to thow everyone under the bus and get away with some short of bit of a happy ending 🤷♀️ Valerio was only included into their relationship because him and Lu were done and his Christian 2.0 story was done 😘 It would’ve been interesting and fun to watch Valerio using and betraying Polo and Cayetana, as Valerio’s s3 arch instead of the reused throuple relationship. I barely believed the throuple because Caye seems possessive over Polo and would do anything for him...even having threesomes 😐 yunno she kinda parallel Christian with the whole joining a throuple for one person 🤔
