## Synopsis

Dangerous Affairs (2012) is a Spanish-language telenovela created for Telemundo, adapted from the Spanish series Fisica o Quimica and produced by Telemundo Studios in Miami. Gabriel Coronel plays Mauricio Blanco, a teacher whose attraction to a student becomes the forbidden center of the story, with Sandra Destenave as Carmen de Blanco, Jorge Consejo as Gilberto Verdugo and Yadira Santana as Guadalupe Lupe Guzman among the principal figures around him. The engine of the series is the secret pull between teacher and pupil and the mounting cost of keeping it hidden from colleagues, families and classmates, with each episode built from classroom encounters, rumors, jealous rivals and confrontations in the corridors of a school. Its single season runs 110 episodes of roughly 42 minutes, shaped as one continuing soap arc rather than standalone cases. The show sits in the tradition of the telenovela, with heightened romantic rivalries, sudden reversals and melodramatic emotion played at full volume. Its tone is high strung and sentimental, with a teen romance energy that will appeal to viewers who enjoy Rebelde and Pasion de Gavilanes and anyone drawn to school set romantic melodrama. The setting is a contemporary Spanish-speaking high school milieu rendered for a US audience.
