## Biography

### Background

Andrea Agosti was born in Mexico. Her father taught her how to play drums and open beers before he left. Her mother remarried after he left. Her stepfather is Armando. She has a complicated relationship with him because he thinks she's a trouble maker. During the series, we learn that Andi had a loads of flings before she started to date Emilia.

## Physical Appearance

She wears nose piercings. She has tattoos all over her body that she covers with long sleeves and fingerless gloves, for the tattoos on her hands, when she goes to class. She also wears a necklace with her name on it.

## Personality

Andi has a strong personality. She's the kind of person you don't want to argue with. She is quite sociable by nature and makes friends easily. However, she'd rather be alone. In a group, Andi will fit in without any difficulty. She has a fiery temper, however, and is quick to anger. She's also touchy. When something bothers her, she will stick with her first impression, which makes her an equally narrow-minded and stubborn person.

In her family environment, Andi is very distant with feelings. She has trouble expressing clearly what she feels, which makes her look like an unaffectionate person who does not usually show signs of affection (with some exceptions) or say "I love you." She often has a hard time clearing her mind. In difficult times, she'd rather isolate herself while listening to music and practicing on her drumkit. She doesn't let anyone walk over her or her friends. When upset, she stutters and struggles to find words.

## Relationships

### **Emilia**

Andi met Emilia on her first day in the new Elite Way School, as she was the tour guide of the new students. It is immediately shown that they have a strong connection together.

At the beginning, Andi felt nervous around Emilia. When Emilia told her she "wasn't bad" at playing drums, she became shy and stuttered.

However, when Andi asked Emilia to join her band to participate to the "bands battle," Emilia replied that she might be talented but she doesn't think a first year could win the bands battle. Emilia told her she needed all the chances to be by her side, as it was her last chance to have a contract. After that, Andi started cold-shouldering her.

When Emilia realized it, she came for explanations. She asked her since when she had to justify herself about the choices she makes. Andi didn't hesitate to show Emilia her jealousy over her forming a band with Sebas and persuading everybody that they got back together. Andi told her she didn't need Sebas for anything because she is already incredibly talented. She adds that she was the most beautiful woman she has ever seen and that it was nothing compared to her voice. Emilia speechless, stopped her by kissing her. Then she left Andi, who was still shook about what just happened.

Later, they started to hook up without really defining their relationship. They even had an intimate moment, in which Emilia, nervous, admitted to Andi it was her first time with a girl. Andi reassured her. She told her they weren't necessary forced to have sex and that they could drink more beers, talk to friends or even dance a little more. Emilia kissed her and pulled her closer as a "no".

After the issues Andi's band met with the "Logia" Emilia and her had a fight. Andi told her that if she really wants to win the "bands battle" to stay with her in Mexico she didn't understand why she wants to keep their relationship a secret. Despite Emilia kept on begging for a second chance. Andi decided to end the "thing" that was between them. She adds she didn't want Emilia to call her back.

The day of the "bands battle" event, Emilia finds the courage to leave Sebas and made her relationship with Andi published, thanks to Laura, the singer of Colmena, during their performance. They finally define their relationship and kissed each other in front of the public and her mother who seemed supportive.

At the beginning of Season 2, their relationship is healthy. They're seen spending time together, kissing, holding hands and one time having sex.

Andi plays a song for Emilia, who says it doesn't feel like Andi. Andi is angry in response and they have a small fight.

Emilia confides in Andi about her fears of having to move back to Brazil if she doesn't win. So, she goes to Gus and plays him a song she wrote. He isn't convinced, so she decides to sing Andi's song.

After the meeting, Andi meets her and asks how it went. She tells her he liked it and they hug. Gus comes back out of his office, telling Emilia she forgot the sheet with the song lyrics in his office. When Andi sees it's her song, she walks away.

Emilia tries to talk to her about it, but Andi is still angry.

Later on in the episode, Gus makes them throw something from their past in the fire. Andi takes the sheet with the song lyrics and tells everyone Emilia plagiarized her song.

In response, Gus fires Emilia, who is very hurt.

In the next episode, Andi tries calling Emilia but her number has changed. Her social media accounts are also gone.

Her guilt about Emilia having been expelled combined with the pressure of having to go viral leads Andi to a drug overdose.

She isn't there in the next episode, but in the one after that, Esteban has a party. Andi returns and meets Emilia there. She refers to her as her ex when she asks Esteban why he invited her.

They talk and Andi tells Emilia she's the one who almost killed her. Later on, Emilia trags Andi out of the pool where she was sitting at the bottom. Andi says she almost died and Emilia thinks she's talking about what happened in the pool. Then Andi tells her what she really means and apologizes for putting that on her. They hug.

In the last episode of Season 2, Emilia knocks on Andi, MJ and Jana's dorm where the three of them are with Dixon. She tells Andi she wants to talk and they go outside to do so. They apologize to each other and Andi says she overreacted. They go in for a kiss but Emilia pulls back, saying leaving would hurt too much if they got back together.

They are seen together in the group several times later on in the episode, but don't have another one-on-one interaction.

In the post-credits scene, at the seniors' graduation, Emilia is seen talking to Celina. We see Andi watching them and smiling. When Okane is arrested and everyone follows him, we see them walking next to each other.

### **M.J.**

Andi and M.J. are best-friends. Andi enjoys teasing M.J. by flirting with her or joking about her inexperience, which makes M.J. a bit uncomfortable. M.J. doesn't judge Andi's sexuality despite the fact her parents are super religious. In fact, she loves teasing Andi about her huge crush on Emilia, the "beautiful Brazilian" as M.J. called her once. Moreover, Andi is known as someone who's struggling a lot about expressing feelings and M.J. seems to be the one who can actually tell when she's not fine. She sees behind her mask.

### **Dixon**

Dixon is a close friend of Andi since the beginning of the series, when they first met during the presentation of the EWS. We didn't see much scenes with them, but enough to know Dixon is comfortable with talking about his fears and feelings towards M.J. with Andi.

### **Luka**

At the beginning of the series, it shows that Andi likes Luka's open-minded personality. The fact that they both are queer, isn't their only similarity. In fact, they both are not the kind of person who open-up easily, they both isolate themselves, they're both reject affection and they both have father/step-father issues.

## Trivia

Lizeth Selene (Andi) admited that both her and Giovanna Grigio (Emilia) got emotional while filming a scene between Emilia and Andi for the last episode : The Grand Finale.

Selene said : "There's a moment where Andi express all her love in the cutest way you'll ever seen. A moment where Gigi got really emotional and started to cry because it was just so sweet the scene between Emilia and Andi... And me too, I should accept the fact I cried a little bit, because I am really sensitive [...] we were crying all along the scene, because it was a sweet and innocent and pure moment between the characters."
