* Pacino learns the hard way that messing with the timeline comes at a price, as his attempts to prevent Díaz Bueno from kidnapping Lola each have a worse outcome than the previous one: the first attempt results in Julián and Alonso being killed, the second in them being kidnapped and turned into children as a result of traveling in time in the Anacronópete without drinking the protective fluid, and the third has Díaz Bueno blow up the Ministry with a hidden explosive, killing everyone but Angustias.

It truly is the materialization of all of Salvador's warnings that History can always end up changing for worse.

* The underlying question that is always behind this: all the Ministry workers ''know'' that there are many catastrophes going on, that people are going to die for no reason at all, that they could save them... but they ''can't'', because meddling with that could cause even worse problems. It is surprising they don't get a load of workers with time off sick because of depression.

* Morán, a calm SerialKiller who murders mothers in front of their children and vanishes through a cabinet which is actually a time door.

* [[spoiler:Walcott]]'s death. He may have been a JerkAss but one could feel sorry for his radiation poisoning and his last will to Lola. It's hard to watch how he painfully succumbs to the radiation in his final moments.
** How Enriqueta deals with Amelia after she was caught stealing the silverware. It's a {{Foreshadowing}} for what's coming up in the next episode.

* Much like episode 10, it involves crimes, a SerialKiller [[AdultFear and children]] again. This time is about the infamous [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enriqueta_Mart%C3%AD Enriqueta Martí]], nicknamed the "Vampiress of the Raval", a woman who abducted and killed children to sell their organs.
** Enriqueta herself is very creepy, both her past and future selves. She has big dark eyes with a soulless look and sometimes speaks with a very calm voice.
** Julia Lozano's disturbing déjà-vu when she was abducted. It involves dead insects, children cries, blood...
** Also, the episode mentions the RealLife 1986 child abducting scandal, where Enriqueta participates, in which doctor Madrigal would order to kidnap grown infants living in poor conditions to give them into adoption for couples unable to have children.

[[folder:Episode 21 ("Change of Time")]]
* Where to even begin with this one...
** First, the stretching torture that De la Cueva, the 1588 Secretary, suffers. We only see a part of said torture, but it has been very crude, with the poor man's [[EyeScream right eye bleeding]].
** [[spoiler:Salvador getting shot.]] Yes, the restored timeline ends up reverting this, but [[spoiler:seeing such a beloved character die while trying to do the right thing is horrifying.]]
** Philip II using the Ministry to enforce his morals and control across all time after the Armada's victory. Try not to shudder at the changes brought by this.
** Some of the aforementioned changes: Ernesto is a cold-hearted bastard that thinks nothing [[TortureTechnician of torture]] and murder, Irene is a submissive secretary that struggles daily to contain her sexuality, Pacino was executed for a crime he did not commit...
** The parallels with Literature/NineteenEightyFour. For example, CCTV in 1588, Philip II's weekly speech, people pretty much brainwashed from childhood... Big Brother only changed historical records to fit the present. Philip II changes ''actual'' history to fit the present he wants.
** Alt!Maite and Alt!Elena's synchronized praying of the rather changed Credo that praises Philip II. Creepy as hell, even InUniverse: Alonso and Julián look scared when that happens.
** Julián being viciously punched and interrogated by none than his good old friend Ernesto. The alternate Ernesto bears very much to his [[spoiler:Torquemada]] ancestry more than ever.
** You think that the first torture scene was bad? Think again. [[spoiler:The Inquisition torturing [[BreakTheCutie Amelia]] with a freakin' '''''electric chair'''''!]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Episode 22 ("With Time on Our Heels")]]
* The beginning starts with an unexplainable large vortex coming from the Ministry's depths. While it's awesome to see, the vortex is seen dragging Alonso, Amelia and Julián to a time door. [[spoiler:This is what causes Julián's death and disintegrates him]].
** Amelia and Alonso's flashback to the UsefulNotes/SpanishCivilWar mission doubles as TearJerker too. The FridgeHorror of the war itself, the dirty trenches and constant enemy attacks, and Amelia screaming [[spoiler:"Julián!"]], who was lost in the chaos of the battle.
* As an episode that is a homage to Creator/AlfredHitchcock, suspense and tension is mandatory. The ''Film/{{Psycho}}'' scene may catch the audience off-guard or the homage to the surrealistic ''Film/{{Vertigo}}'' nightmare.
* Pacino beating and punching [[AssholeVictim the Soviet spy]]. We already knew about Pacino being a cop that follows his conscience to do his duty, but his violence is enough to scare poor [[BreakTheCutie Amelia]] and leave the room.
* The ending [[spoiler:with the builder revealing himself as an spy, takes a syringe from his toolbox and kills the Soviet spy whose body is seen with foam in his mouth]].
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Episode 23 ("Time of Spies")]]
* For most of the episode, Ernesto and the young Lola Mendieta stay at a Nazi concentration camp, tortured daily until they speak.
** Not to mention that when they first arrive, they see malnourished prisoners with black-and-white striped robes.
* Ernesto is given a lethal drug to kill Lola if she speaks. [[spoiler:He never uses it though]].

[[folder:Episode 24 ("Time of Spells")]]
* Being a travel back to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustavo_Adolfo_B%C3%A9cquer Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer]]'s time, a noted writer of suspenseful stories, could not avoid but have some of these.
* The aquelarre at the climax, with [[spoiler:all the townspeople]] gathered in a ritual, and [[spoiler:[[BrainwashedAndCrazy Alonso and Amelia brainwashed]]]] into joining them.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Episode 25 ("Time of Enlightenment")]]
* Pacino sees Marta at the Ministry's empty corridors, and after she turns around to see Pacino, her head begins to distort at high speeds with [[HellIsThatNoise an unnatural noise]]. [[spoiler:Thankfully it was a nightmare]].
