Tino tells Alma that she has great technical ability as a drummer but she needs to play from her soul. Her name means "soul" in Spanish.
The beginning of the episode shows Alma preparing for her quinceanera (turning 15), but when she arrives on the island, she is an adult - ten years have passed of her living with her family's disapproval of her choice to follow her music. She is an adult who chose (and could afford) to vacation at Fantasy Island on her own.
