In the Argentinian series, El Encargado, Eliseo is more than just a doorman, he runs the building… and everyone in it. By day, he’s the guy manning the door who knows your dog’s name and brings you extra towels. But by night, he’s the king of manipulation, spying on tenants through security cams and playing puppet master with their lives – all while acting squeaky clean.
Season 1 kicks off with Eliseo finessing his way out of eviction by crushing a rooftop pool plan that threatens his comfy quarters (bye-bye infinity pool, hello power trip). Season 2 turns up the heat when Lucila Morris moves in – an activist queen with transparency on the brain and zero time for Eliseo’s games. But the real showdown hits in season 3, when Eliseo goes full tech bro and launches a sketchy doorman startup. Cue labor strikes, legal drama, and a very public unraveling of his empire.
El Encargado is a deluxe penthouse of secrets, lies, and luxury-level chaos.
