After being reported missing, it was discovered through surveillance footage that Bueno had gone overboard from Deck S while the ship was near Uruguay. A search operation involving the Uruguay Navy and Brazilian authorities eventually led to the recovery of his body five days later. The creator notes that the incident has prompted investigations by the senate committee and the Department of Maritime Workers to ensure the family receives financial and psychological support.
