* BreakTheHaughty: Natalia's bitchy behavior stems from her desires of fame and money. However, by the second episode of the first season, the hacker exposes her as a thief for stealing the school's savings to buy expensive bags for herself, turning most of the student body against her.

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Sofía telling Raúl, after finding out that he kept a secret from her Quintanilla ans Susana's affair, that the worst part wasn't that he lied to her but that she believed him. These words are suspiciously similar to the lyrics of ''Music/RicardoArjona'''s song "El Problema" and, to some extent, Luis Miguel's song "Culpable o No", both of them coincindentally mirroring relationship drama.
