It’s the fifth season of Netflix’s Spanish teen show “Elite.” Samuel and Benjamn have to deal with what happened to Armando. To avoid getting caught, he panics and asks for help from his friend. Samuel tells the police lieutenant that he killed Armando in order to keep Benjamn out of the officer’s eyes. This is how it works: However, Samuel’s story is not true at all. In the same way that Benjamn is curious about the real identity of Armando’s killer, one must wonder about the same. Well, let us tell you everything you need to know about Armando’s death and his killer now. There are going to be spoilers down the road.
Who Murdered Armando?
In the beginning, Ari didn’t know that Armando was abusing her sister Menca. When she found out, she told Armando about it. Ari tells Armando that Benjamn will punish him for what he did, only for him to say that he doesn’t need her. Even when Ari is unconscious, he still hits her. Guzmán goes to the dock to check on Ari, only to see Armando hurt her. A flare gun is used to shoot at Armando. He runs after Armando and kills him with it. It’s hard for Guzmán to let Armando hurt Ari. So he decides to end the abuser’s life by killing him. Samuel and Rebeka help Guzmán take care of the dead body so that he won’t be charged with murder.
They tie Armando’s body and throw it in the lake. Guzmán is haunted by the death of someone, so he decides to go on a long trip with Ander by his side. There’s still the impression that Armando is on the run to avoid a murder investigation that could hurt them or their friend. However, when Armando’s body is found, their expectations change. Samuel has to report it to the police because of Omar’s insistence. The police start a formal investigation and suspect Benjamn of killing Armando, especially after they think about the possibility that he might have killed Armando because he hurt his daughter.
Benjamn thinks about reporting Guzmán as the killer even though he doesn’t know the truth and because he is on the road. When Samuel thinks about how Benjamn could hurt his best friend, he takes a stand against the man. As a last resort, Benjamn asks Samuel to admit to killing Armando, so the police won’t pay attention to him. Benjamn is afraid that his criminal relationship with Armando will come to light during the investigation. Samuel will get money, education, and other things if he tells the truth, as well as the help of lawyers to get out of jail. Samuel is someone who has always been short of everything he needs, so he accepts and confesses that. His confession also helps Guzmán not be a part of the case, which is good for him.
Samuel soon backs down from his confession and helps the police get Benjamn, who sold information about powerful and influential people to Armando. Finally, the police turn their attention away from Armando’s killer to the crimes Benjamn did, including the attempted murder or murder of Samuel. When Mencia learns that Armando was killed by Guzmán, she doesn’t have to be afraid to see him again. Armando was killed by Guzmán, so Mencia can start a new chapter in her life that isn’t afraid of the dark again. Samuel’s bravery in getting involved in the case to cut the trail that led back to Armando’s real killer, his best friend, is also a good thing to look at.
Armando’s death opens the door to a lot of bad things happening in the lives of a lot of people, from the Blancos to Guzmán, Samuel, and Rebeka. As Guzmán goes on his trip, we can hope that he will be able to move on from killing Armando.
