Muted Netflix Summary
The story revolves around Sergio Ciscar, who likely killed his parents six years ago. He was arrested, and now, the judge has decided to release him. But, he is supposed to be in the eye of the officials. As a part of a greenhouse which is operated by an evangelist, Natanael Torroj, Sergio will be rejoining the society. Sergio’s behavior has been quite weird since the incident. He never spoke to anybody, and when the Police were recreating the scene, he didn’t speak anything.
He didn’t even defend himself. Therefore, his silence was considered as ‘Yes, he did it!’ which led him to jail. After rejoining society, a psychiatrist, Ana Dussuel, is all set to keep a strict eye on Sergio with the help of cameras. Her goal is to find out why he committed such a crime, and she also wants to know if he is a threat to society. Well, his behavior was so mysterious that she had to look after him to know the actual story behind the crime. Sergio tries to find his sister, Noah, who was there when he killed his parents.
Noah and Sergio separated once he got arrested, so it was quite tough for him to find her. He contacts her piano teacher, Marta, who likes Sergio and used to think that he was a nice person. Ana meets Marta and convinces her to help the team. She tells Marta that the team only wants to help Sergio by doing all this. Marta agrees and tries to get close to Sergio. Since Sergio liked her too, he started feeling safe around her and thought to open up.
Marta had a boyfriend, Eneko, who was against these investigations as he didn’t want his girlfriend to get close to a criminal. Well, his concern was somewhat right as a rumor spread that Marta was dating a criminal. This directly means that Marta’s social life was ruined. Anyway, Marta brought the videos that were on Noah’s phone, and these videos were about Sergio. The videos Marta bought had critical information regarding Sergio’s health conditions.

He was on medication before his parent’s death, and he revealed the same information in front of Marta when they were having a deep conversation. As the series continues, Ana to falls for Sergio, but she does not reveal this to anyone. However, the team was getting confused because sometimes, she made doubtful decisions. Her behavior and the change in investigation style were leading the team toward proving Sergio innocent. Later, the truth came out that Ana used to work under the umbrella of Blanca, Sergio’s mother.
Ana reaches her friend to help her investigate deeply and finally finds a bag full of Blanca’s videos. These videos were about Sergio and his behavior. Well, Sergio was an extraordinary child, but the only problem with him was his self-control. He was a violent boy, so his mother used to provide him with various drugs to keep his behavior on track.
Blanca’s videos were a great help to Ana. She found a secret room in Sergio’s house where she got all the drugs that Blanca used to give Sergio. Blanca’s husband was a biochemist who used to cooperate with several laboratories, so Ana now wanted to find out if the drugs were from one of the laboratories where Sergio’s father had contacts.
Now enters a sub-commissioner Cabrera who used to keep a close eye on Ana’s investigations and was constantly trying to vandalize her investigation. If you remember, her team was doubting her earlier, so yes, nobody had complete faith in her decisions. Therefore, it was easy for Cabrera to convince them. He convinced Ana’s second-in-command, Greta, and received the drugs.
Aguirre, the judge who was working on Sergio’s case, was involved with Cabrera in protecting those laboratories. The drugs were a very important lead to those laboratories. Those who come closer to Sergio abandon him in the end, and Cabrera successfully finds a perfect reason to end this case. Ana was desperate to find the truth, so she had no choice but to get her daughter involved in all of these. Her daughter was Noah.

Muted left us with several cliffhangers, and here we are going to read about a few major ones.
Was Sargio Innocent?
Ana involves Noah in the case, and Sergio, on the other hand, offers his grandfather’s royalties to his aunt in exchange for her phone number. When he sends a text, Ana receives it, and she arrives at his house. Marta, too, shows up as she discovers that Sergio didn’t leak her sex tape (the reason why she abandoned Sergio), but Eneko does it. After all, this, when Eneko and Marta leave Anna and Sergio alone, he opens up. He says that Blanca was planning to treat Noah with drugs too.
He and his father were against Blanca’s decision, so they had an argument in which Javier (father) pushed Blanca from the balcony. When he came to his senses, he felt guilty and jumped off from there. When Noah comes to know about this story, she immediately arrives at the apartment and tells the truth. She reveals that Sergio had a mental blockage, and he wasn’t in his senses. He pushed both of their parents from the balcony. She further says that Blanca was cold, but she was just helping Sergio as she loved both of them.

Who Jumped Off The Balcony, Sergio or Ana?
Noah’s main intention to visit Sergio’s apartment was to get her mom back. She just revealed what she knew as Sergio was confessing to her mother. Ana hugs her daughter and tells her to go back because Ana wants to stay a bit longer with Sergio. Ana was getting attached to Sergio’s condition. She understood that Sergio was too conservative and was struggling to adjust to society.
She related a lot to him, which means she certainly does not have a good connection with her family. Noah leaves the apartment as her mother orders her to do so. Sergio heads toward the same balcony from where he lost his parents. Ana follows him to the balcony, but then something absurd happens. One of them falls but who? It isn’t revealed who jumped or was killed.
