COR-DE-ROSA STATIONERY - AFTERNOONPenha is beating Rosa because she gave Fábio her phone number. Rosa is sprawled on the floor, almost losing consciousness, the hardcover notebook made a mark on her face.For a moment Penha thinks about leaving, but when she sees Rosa move, she remains where she is and asks with contempt in her voice, "Haven't you died yet?"Still lying in the middle of the notebooks, Rosa manages to look at her with disbelief, "What is all this about?""Who permitted you to give my phone to your friend's boyfriend? Because it's obvious that you knew who he was!"Rosa joins forces to answer because talking is hurting due to the blows, "I don't know why you were so angry. What, did he disguise himself as someone interested in renting a kitchenette and set up an appointment with you?""Yes! And in this building, on top of that. He cheated on me. When we were inside and alone, he stopped acting and asked me every question... Without an escape, I ended up saying everythi

CASSIO’S LIVING ROOM - NIGHTThere is a knock at Cassio's door. He emerges from the room in shorts and without a shirt, drying his hair with a towel; he just got out of the shower. When he opens the door, it's Jonas on the other side. Cassio is slightly surprised."Jonas! Come in, buddy. How are you doing in the morning?"Jonas comes in with a slight smile, "Very well, Cassio. What about your job?"Cassio closes the door and puts the towel on his shoulders, gesturing for Jonas to sit in the armchair while he sits in another."Everyone asks me that like I'm in an important job. Well, I'm just a packer of goods. People shop and I put the products in plastic bags and say 'thanks for the preference'. That's it.""I am very happy that you have joined those who work honestly."Cassio lumps in his throat. Does he know about Wellington and Luís?"However," Jonas continues, "I came here to thank you for the effort.""For the effort?""Yes, for the effort to strengthen our bonds of friendship.

CARINA STUDIO - DAYFábio pretends not to understand Carina's nervousness when she drops the brush on the floor, mentioning Ricardo as if they were not boyfriends."Did something happen, Carina?" He bends over and picks up the brush for her, "You suddenly went pale."Carina tries to compose herself, picks up the brush, and goes back to work."Sometimes I have these constant drops in blood pressure. I feel that no man will want me as a wife. No one wants a woman so fragile and feminine."Fábio holds his tongue in time not to speak nonsense! The truth is: he would like Monica to be calmer and more virtuous like Carina and Annie. This is the injustice of the world. Wonderful women like Carina and Annie always fall into the hands of bastards like Ricardo and Jonas. Why?"But, thanks anyway for the offer, Fábio." The painter continued, "I will think about the possibility.""Think about it. I'm going to leave the door open. If you need to, we are willing. Now, excuse me, I've already distur

GRANJA SQUARE - AFTERNOONWellington and Luís catch Ed, listening to their conversation behind a tree. But Ed swears he was just riding a bike. Is it true?Wellington and Luís do not believe even under some decree. Wellington strides up to Ed and pulls him by the ear.Ed cries out in pain, "OUCH, AHH! Let me go, you're hurting me!"Wellington replies in a fierce tone, "It's supposed to hurt you, you unbearable brat! What a habit of listening to conversations, you've been doing this since you were born! Don't fool me with this bicycle talk!"Ed starts to cry and Luís starts to worry."Well, drop it, that's enough. He won't repeat that.""Stop, I was walking by chance—"Wellington lets go of Ed's ear but gives him such a strong jerk that Ed falls to the floor with a bicycle and everything."You attackers! I will tell everything—"Wellington threatens him with clenched fists, "Go on, tell someone, and we'll spread it to everyone how you get the news! Get out of here, kid, disappear!"Ed,

CASA BRANCA HOSPITAL - NIGHTAurélio is being met by a doctor. Sitting on a stretcher, he has already had neurological examinations and some tests to know what was that piercing and sudden head pain."Mr. Malthus," the doctor says, after reading the report, "you can rest easy. There was no evidence of stroke or ischemia in your brain."Aurélio sighs with relief. He smiled, "Good news, doctor.""Yes. However, I advise you to keep an eye on your blood pressure, which can contribute to the complication and eventual fate. According to the story told by you, it was the strong emotion of the moment that resulted in this imbalance."Aurélio agrees with the head. And even more that Annie has signaled that she cares about him, he will relax. He needs.The doctor goes on, "You are still 42, but it’s good to keep an eye out. I will prescribe some medicine and then you can go home.""Thank you, Doctor.""You're welcome. Excuse me."The doctor leaves to see other patients. Aurelio looks up, thanki
