* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Both Carlos and Pedro try to discredit each other as a CompleteMonster, and Eva is unsure who the real villain is.

UsefulNotes/WorldWarTwo has recently ended. Two sisters, Carolina and Eva Villanueva, board a luxurious cruise ship, the ''Barbara de Braganza'', which is sailing from Spain to Brazil. On the way, Carolina is going to marry the ship's owner, Fernando Fábregas, and Eva, an aspiring writer, is meeting an interested editor in Brazil. Just as they are on their way to the port, an unkempt woman rushes in their car's way and pleads for help: she is being forced into marriage against her will, and she will be murdered if her fiancé discovers she has run away. After some consideration, Carolina and Eva decide to help her and smuggle her on board. However, barely does the ''Barbara de Braganza'' set sail, Eva really witnesses the woman being thrown overboard, and the sisters are drawn into a multisided intrigue which, it turns out, has everything to do with them.

* StringyHairedGhostGirl: Rosa's ghost takes this form [[spoiler: or rather, the actress playing Rosa's ghost as part of Cassandara's revenge plan looks like this - the [[MaybeMagicMaybeMundane actual manifestation of Rosa's ghost at the end of season 2 is in fashionable suit.]]

* NauticalFolklore: An albatross crashing to the ship and dying before it sets off on its maiden voyage causes the captain a great bit of angst. Rightfully so.

* AmateurSleuth: Nicolás and Eva all the time. While Nicolás does at least have some legal authority as the ship's first officer, Eva is a simple passenger and shouldn’t be involved in any investigations at all. However, by the second season, everyone has resigned to the fact that these two are inseparable.

Two years later, the Villanueva sisters board the ''Barbara de Braganza'' for a voyage from Buenos Aires to Mexico. However, as one character ruefully notes, things tend to happen when they travel on this ship and this voyage is no different. The sisters are drawn into another web of intrigue involving espionage, corporate sabotage, and a deadly virus that could wipe out millions.
