'', playing housekeeper "Clarita." She joined the cast when the production was almost completed, and received a character that the writers initially considered a minor one. Her character was drafted as a humble Paraguayan; Scápola proposed instead to make it a native of the Córdoba Province, and always fussing about the house's condition. As it was her first major success in television and she did not spoof the slang from the Córdoba Province, and many fans mistook her for an actual native of the province. She was fluent in slang because her grandparents lived in that province, and she had already tried for it the film '' Rancho aparte''. Mercedes Morán made a brief cameo in that soap opera as the mother of her character. Scápola got pregnant during the airing of the program, so the scripts made her character become pregnant as well. Her son León was born in 2013. Scápola returned to work in the 2014 soap opera '' Guapas''. Her mother Mercedes Morán works in it as well. As they both enjoyed the cameo in ''Graduados'', their characters are again mother and daughter within the plot.
