Vernon pays the heaviest shame by crying out at the top of his lungs like a possessed man in the halls of LCN. Elza pretends she doesn't know her husband and tiptoes away.“What are you looking at? Get lost, move around! Mind your own business, you idiots!”“Who gave you the freedom to talk to us like that?” Melissa crosses her arms, “Did you drink, Vernon?”“You are the one who is drunk when you say that Isabel Freire will be your successor. A slum dweller cannot be on the cover of Maggiezine.” Vernon speaks venomously.“It turns out that Isabel no longer lives in the favela,” Melissa informs him.“That for me is the least. She will never be someone noble like my wife.”“Besides, where is she?”Everyone turns around and realizes that Elza had escaped, dying of shame.Melissa smirks at Vernon and the nut walks away with everyone laughing behind him.Flavia approaches, “Did I miss something?”“You missed your cousin humiliating Josias's stepfather.” Melissa responds with a smugy smile,

Following day. At Simeon's house, the family is having breakfast. Melissa has scripts for the upcoming episodes of 'Love Just Happens' on the table, next to the toast.Dora admonishes her, “Daughter, eat breakfast first.”“Sorry, mom. Isabel is very busy and I am helping her.”Simeon tries to sneak a peek, “What's going to happen in the next episode?”Melissa quickly pushes the script away from her father, causing the others to laugh.Alan drops the spoon on the plate, “I finished my cereal, Mom.”“There, son. Go get ready for school.”“What about me, Mom?” Caroline also wants to go to school.“You're only four, sweetheart. Next year we'll enroll you in a kindergarten, okay?”“Okay...” Caroline tries to drink the orange juice with her little hands holding the glass.Grandpa Carlos holds the glass, fearing that his great-granddaughter will drop it.Simeon analyzes his father, “Is everything okay, Dad? I am noticing you pale.”“I'm fine, my son. Get on with your life.” Carlos answers.S

Josias is unhappy that William has made such a decision about answering the phone. He still doesn't know that it was actually Jock who answered, being very rude to Dora.He asks after taking a deep breath, “Dora, how's grandpa Carlos doing?”“I still do not know. He's in the ER, but he needs a room. If I register him on my own, they will put him in a common ward.”“I understood. I will communicate with everyone here, don't worry.”“Thank you, Josias...”Dora hangs up and runs to the emergency room.On the other side, Josias slams the receiver on the phone and stands up. He runs to Tiago's room.“Master, what happened?”“A tragedy, Tiago! Grandpa Carlos went to the hospital. It seems...” Josias feels a lump in his throat, “It seems his time has come.”Tiago stands up abruptly, “Don't think the worst, Josias!”“I'm not thinking the worst, I just remember that grandpa Carlos is over eighty years old...”“Well, you can go to the hospital and we'll take care of everything around here.”“Do

Dora doesn't want Melissa and Angela to get into a physical fight, especially since David is on the latter's lap.She interposes between them, “Ladies, keep your composure. We're in the middle of the corridor. Melissa, I need you, let's ask for your grandfather's transfer to the private wing.”“OK, Mom, I don't feel like wasting my spit on some minx.” She strafes at Angela with her eyes and leaves.Angela takes a deep breath and tries to redeem herself with Vânia, “I'm sorry, ma'am. I came to bring my son for a pediatric consultation.”“I understand...” Vânia caresses David, “So this is another nephew of mine?”“I don't know how it would look, since he's not blood-related... but if you're the aunt of Josias's other children...”“My husband is the brother of Dora, Melissa's mother who was here. I am part of the family by marriage, but Josias considers me his aunt anyway.”“How interesting.” Angela smiles, “I know I screwed up, but I'd like to spare my son the unpleasant details. I don'

“And... cut!”Ends Lisandro's Show. The audience continues to applaud as Elza and Vernon try to get out of the way.Lisandro hugs Isabel, “Dear Izzy, thank you so much for coming. The public loves you.”“Was my apology convincing?” Isabel asks worriedly.“Of course. We have an excuse documented by my program. That will save you a lawsuit.”“And the worst thing is that Pamela Damascene's husband has a law firm that represents Rocha Constructions. Can you imagine the confusion?”Isabel hurriedly heads outside while Lisandro giggles.Backstage, she meets Uélton.“Mom, congratulations on the program, you did very well.”“Thank you, son. Are you aware?”Uélton sighs, “About grandpa Chuck? Yes, he went to the hospital. My father is taking care of the children.”“So come on, Flavia is already there to comfort Melissa.”Mother and son go outside the LCN to order a taxi.******Meanwhile, at the General Hospital, William is scandalized by Kelvin's presence.“What are you doing here, you idiot?
