* DesignatedHero: Leonardo has cheated on his girlfriend repeatedly with Charo and Estela, tried to blackmail a priest, feels no remorse for all the deaths caused by the killer and is only worried about how it will affect the enterprise, treats everyone around him like crap, and is genuinely just an awful person.

* CreatorsPet: Tony quickly fell into this role, gaining more and more prominence within the show, to the point that he was practically the main character, getting away with more and more heinous actions which are condoned within the narrative, constantly fawned over by other characters and never shown to be in the wrong. He even got his own spinoff show.

We're treated to a lovely scene of a delirious Zacarias with bloodshot eyes, taking off his clothes, muttering nonsensically to himself and attacking anyone who comes near him.

* TooBleakStoppedCaring: Most especially towards the end. It's difficult to support which sides (the rich businessmen or the poor fishermen) after they have demonstrated that they've crossed many lines. Despite that the poor "won" and got their port back, they still lost their loved ones. Pretty much, Tony asked himself whether they won or lost. It's even worse that the boss of the rich got away with only a bruised self conviction.
