In the evening, Flavia is putting the dishes on the dinner table, but her brain is working above normal concerning the trip to Victoria. Uélton approaches her coming from work, showered, and wearing a woody perfume.He approaches from behind and kisses his wife's neck, causing her to almost drop one of the dishes, “Oops, honey! Careful, don't scare me.”“I didn't mean to scare you. I wanted to kiss you good evening!” Uélton reasons like a child.Flavia's uncertainty only grows and she blurts out without thinking, “Let's leave Reuben at the Rocha Mansion!”Uélton gets angry and grabs Flávia by the wrist, forcing her to turn around to face him, “Negative, my dear! Reuben will stay here at home with his dad! Why do we need to bother Josias at all?”“I thought he was your best friend...” Flávia tries to free herself while uttering this lame excuse.“No way.” Uélton scowls, “I want to spend more time with my puppy. Is this some crime?”“It's a crime when you're the same mental age as him!”

Isabel arrives home and hears crying coming from afar. She walks into the kitchen and is shocked by the scene of destruction.“OH GOSH! What happened here? Hello everyone, where are you, folks?”The door to the master bedroom opens and Flávia comes out, crying profusely, “Izzy... A tragedy happened.”“What happened, my daughter? Where is Uélton, where is my grandson?”“I DON'T KNOW!” Flávia kicks the china shards, “They probably went for pizza at Campos Pizzeria!”“I’m waiting for the explanation.” Isabel crosses her arms. She already understands that her daughter-in-law is causing unnecessary drama.“Reuben, even with me gesturing him to refuse, has decided to stay here with his dad!” Flavia talks like it's the end of the world.But Isabel just takes a deep breath and goes after the broom, “Is that it? Problem solved, daughter-in-law. We can go to the capital. Ray Chaves agreed to host us for free.”“Izzy, did you hear what I said?” Flávia turns to her with red eyes, “If I leave thos

The next day, Flavia is on the phone still in her pink robe, talking furtively to someone. She looks back, afraid someone will find her.On the other side, Maggie is also in a pink robe and still sleepy, yawning and going to the phone that rings stridently, “Who will it be at this hour? Hello?”“Hello, Maggie?” Flávia is shocked to be attended to.“I can't hear you, honey.” Maggie smiles slightly.“Mrs. Marçal, this is Flávia Freire.” Flávia speaks hastily, almost whispering, “I need to let you know that I won’t be able to go on the trip due to a scheduling conflict.”Maggie is surprised, “Did something happen, Flávia? Your mother needs your company. If you can't go, she can't go either, but we already have a whole schedule arranged.”Flávia smiles in relief, “Thank you, Mrs. Marçal, for your understanding. Perhaps the autograph session can be postponed for a few more days, that way we can resolve the pending matter.”“I need to tell my husband.” Maggie yawns.“Sorry for the inconveni

Wallace's session with Sandro continues. Wallace has already spoken more data about his past, reaching 1981 and 1982.Sandro ventures a question, “Wallace... Forgive my intrusion, but at this time, I think it was already clear to you that Pamela Chaves was not willing to be a straight woman. See, I'm not one to judge people by their actions, I just hope they know what they're doing. For me, Miss Chaves was determined to be the kind of woman that went against your principles. You started talking about Josias Rocha and your younger brother, but I want you to think: WHY DID YOU stick around?”“I loved her, Doctor,” Wallace responds wistfully.“But why?” Sandro wants to dig deep in this well until he finds mined water, “Everything in this life has a reason.”“I ain’t following you, Doctor.”Sandro straightens up in his chair, “You were willing to assume a child that Miss Chaves bore. I'm not a churchgoer, but I know enough to believe that it would be against holy doctrines. Did you expect

The next day, Wallace is in his underwear in the bathroom brushing his teeth, thinking about everything he heard from Dr. Almeida. Suddenly, he hears the door open and the footsteps of people entering.“Good morning, Uncle Wally!” Reuben screams.Wallace's eyes widen and he spits out toothpaste in fright. When he rinses his mouth and thinks about closing the door, Uélton and Reuben appear at the bathroom door and catch him with little clothes on.Reuben pretends he’s embarrassed and covers his eyes, “Argh, there's an indecent man here!”Uélton bursts out laughing, “That's right, son, never see a naked man, not even when you're Uncle Wally's age.”“Cover your eyes too, daddy!” Reuben sneaks a peek.Uélton covers his son's head, “It's different with dad, we're brothers. Wait in the kitchen.”Reuben goes into the kitchen with his eyes still covered and bumps into the first wall he finds.Wallace nods, “I see you're having a great time, huh? Are you teaching your son to enter other people
