: Miguel narrowly avoids expulsion thanks to Franco Colucci , who manages to convince the Director to keep him at EWS. This highlights the complex, begrudging respect forming between Miguel and the Colucci patriarch.

“Rebelde is a good show... after every single episode you are hooked and can't wait for the next day to see what happens next.” IMDb

: This episode serves as a vital bridge in the first season. By removing Lulu, the show clears the deck for new authoritative conflicts, while the "Miguel expulsion" thread keeps the central tension high.

Community reviews often highlight the "addicting" nature of these mid-season episodes:

“It's a pretty good show. Just.. just a few ick moments so far.” Reddit · r/telenovelas · 2 years ago "Rebelde" Capítulo 79 (TV Episode 2005) - IMDb
