| Locked Up | comment |
Also known as Vis a Vis in its native country. This show is a Spanish drama/thriller set in a women's prison. It is produced by Globomedia and originally aired on Antena 3 between April 2015 and June 2016, when the channel decided to bring the series to an end after a ratings decline in its second season. As of July 2017, the series has been Un-Canceled, as FOX Spain is set to produce a third season after reaching a deal with Antena 3's parent group Atresmedia. In the UK, Walter Presents (a branch of Channel 4) has picked up both seasons for online viewing. Their airing is in Spanish with English subtitles and was renamed Locked Up.The story follows a naive young woman named Macarena Ferreiro (Maggie Civantos). She has been imprisoned for fraud and embezzlement, pending trial. Potentially, she will spend up to seven years incarcerated, for crimes she claims to be innocent of. During the course of the show, Macarena attempts to prove her innocence. Failing that, she wants to acquire the money to pay her bail: one million euros. She adapts to the harsh realities of prison very poorly, and immediately puts herself in danger when she is witness to the murder of another inmate.The situation is not helped when Macarena discovers the location to millions of stolen euros. This leads to a race against time as Macarena's family hunt for the money to pay her bail, before prison inmate Zulema Zahir or her boyfriend 'The Egyptian' disover its whereabouts. The Ferreiros become embroiled in an increasingly dangerous situation, as The Egyptian threatens them outside the prison, and Zulema threatens Macarena within it. | |

| Locked Up / int_146f8df0 | comment |
Situational Sexuality: Macarena insists for a long time that she is straight. However, she eventually ends up in a relationship with Curly. Lampshaded by Saray, who says that Macarena is just using Curly because it's convenient, but that she loves Curly for real. | |

Poor Communication Kills: And it literally did with poor Casper. Macarena left behind a phone she was using to contact Fabio in the bathroom where Casper was taking a shower. After Zulema sees it, she accuses Casper of ratting them out to the police and shoots her dead as a result without letting the desperate Casper explain herself. | |

Great Escape: Zulema conspires on various occasions to escape from prison. The first time involves The Egyptian hijacking an ambulance convoy while Zulema is in it. This was unsuccessful. The most recent is when she and a few others make a hole in the laundry room and escape through tunnels. This leads to them getting out at the end of episode 16. | |

Ice-Cream Koan: The closing scene for season two finale fades to black while the screen shows the text: "A liquid is a state of matter with no particular shape. It changes easily and is only defined by the container that contains it. The human body is 70% water". Apparently to justify Macarena's decision to stop her successful escape, one that Inspector Castillo himself came up with the idea for, and turn herself back to the police.Or something. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Macarena's attempts to adapt to her situation invariably seem to make it worse. At least at first. As part of a deal with Saray, Macarena loudly tells Curly that she is disgusted by her, and does not want to be her girlfriend. This leads to Curly standing up in the middle of the canteen and shouting to everyone that Macarena knows where the several million euros are hidden. | |

The Bus Came Back | |
| Locked Up / int_927b2f11 | comment |
The Bus Came Back: Near the end of the fourth season. Having spent eight monts at the hospital, Macarena has finally recovered from her injuries and attacks a male nurse for taking pictures of her intimate parts before returning to Cruz del Norte, where she has an emotional reunion with Rizos and joins the other inmates, who all gleefully welcome her back, in their mutiny. | |

Momma's Boy | |
| Locked Up / int_97ee273 | comment |
Momma's Boy: Palacios lives with his mother. When he gets suspended after Tere falsely accuses him of sleeping with her, he asks Fabio if he can still come round and pick him up for work like he normally does so that his mum won't realise something's wrong. | |

| Locked Up / int_a0db7803 | comment |
It's Personal: After thieves hold Fabio's wife hostage, he becomes obsessed with finding them and bringing them to justice (despite her pleas not to). This leads to them returning and blinding her. This costs him his job as a detective, and nearly his marriage. | |

Alas, Poor Villain: Casper is only shown acting antagonistic on her own accord only once and otherwise her criminal actions are a result of Zulema's influence. It's hard not to feel bad for her ultimate fate especially considering she was innocent of what Zolema accused her of. | |

Hookers and Blow | |
| Locked Up / int_ad786c6b | comment |
Hookers and Blow: Anabel's speciality. Outside of the prison, she ran a brothel. Inside the prison, she arranges 'conjugal visits' for other inmates and smuggles drugs in via various... orifices. When Anabel takes possession of Casper, she also strongly implies that she intends to prostitute her. | |

Prisons Are Gymnasiums: During her time in solitary confinement, Macarena attempts to work out and build her strength. Subverted, since this causes her to hurt her wrist during push-ups. In the second series, Cruz del Sur is kitted out with a newly refurbished gym. Macarena spends quite a bit of time there and even wins the intra-prison boxing tournament. | |
