Maria is an unseen character in Façade. She is a Spanish woman living in Barcelona and is known for her affair with Trip.
Life
Not much is known about Maria and her life. She lives in Barcelona, Spain, and is a client in Barcelona. Trip likely met her during a business trip to Europe, and ended up having an affair with her. The affair ended presumably in a short period of time, though it is not known how it ended, nor is it known whether or not Maria knew that Trip was married.
Triggers
Main article: Strike system
Maria is a level two trigger word in the game, and as such, you can get kicked out for using it three times or using one or two other level two trigger words as well as it in the third stage. In the first stage, Trip will shut the door on you if you use it, despite level two triggers generally not being banned on this stage; it is one of three exceptions to this rule along with fuck and Vince. In the fourth stage, you can get kicked out for using it two times or using it and another level two trigger word. In the sixth stage, you can use it as it is considered a reasonable topic of conservation now that Trip and Grace are arguing, however, repeating it will not go anywhere, as they will remind you of your previous mention of it. You are free to use it in stage two and seven as well as the bonus stage, although saying it will not add anything.
