Carmen, Pamela, and Miguel are stunned when they hear Moacyr say that the solution to the family's problems is divorce.

Miguel even turns off the radio since no one is listening to any music, “Seu Moacyr, did the accident affect your brain?”

“Have respect for me, Miguel!” Moacyr is offended.

Pamela defends her husband, “Sorry Dad, but I have to agree with him! Don't you realize that divorce is the worst thing that can happen?”

Moacyr insists, “I'm warning you: when Adrian returns, he'll be foaming with rage and dying for revenge.”

Carmen rolls her eyes, “And you're going to leave him around here so he can get revenge? How many times has he sworn never to want anything to do with you again? It is time to make that oath count.”

Pamela asserts, “Dad, forget it, Adrian won't be with us anymore!”

Suddenly Cristina appears, “He won’t. I have already testified and filed my criminal complaint. Adrian will stay in jail!”

“Oh, Mom...” Pamela hugs her. Carmen does the same.

    João Paulo has difficulty understanding that Josias is alive. Melissa explains this to him with the didactics of a teacher.“Melissa, how did we come to believe he was dead?”“That's where the interesting story comes in: Josias was rescued by a farmer who helped him recover. But when Josias felt better to come back, he realized that the farmer was willing to keep Josias on the farm forever to take over the business when he retired. On top of that, his daughter was in love with Josias and her father wanted Josias to marry her.”“So he ran away.” João Paulo answers briefly.Melissa embarrasses herself because it wasn't just that, “Ehr... he got the farmer's daughter pregnant as revenge and then ran away.”João Paulo breaks his smile, “Oh, Melissa, I'm so sorry!”Melissa hurriedly responds, “At least Josias made it back, but instead of clearing up the misunderstanding, he's been into the shadows digging for information about the farmer who tried to kidnap him.

    On the other side, Frederick leaves the bathroom and goes to the living room, finding Josias scratching the back of his head, not understanding why Bernardo had hung up.“Some people are afraid of ghosts.” Josias jokes.“Let's listen to the radio news,” Frederick suggests.As soon as they call, they hear the song "Knockin' on Heaven's Door", a version of Guns 'n' Roses.But, just like the other times, the music is interrupted by the announcer, “We interrupt our programming for a piece of urgent news: real estate agent Adrian Barbosa, responsible for the attempt on the life of Moacyr Barbosa and his new wife, was arrested yesterday.

    Moacyr is disgusted with Adrian having the nerve to claim that Josias is to blame for being paralyzed.“How dare you say that Josias is to blame for me not being able to walk anymore?” Moacyr rages, “Who cut the brakes on my car? Who joked about turning off my wife's devices while she was in a coma? Who did we have to issue a security warrant to? Who kept swearing never to speak to me again and ending the father-son relationship? WHO?”Adrian swallows, “It all started in 1982—”“And this story will end now, in 1992!” Moacyr interrupts him, he doesn't want to hear the same old story again, “A cycle ends, Adrian. You will pay for your crimes, and you will never come back here. Forget that I exist, son, and try to be happy at least.”“Who will take care of you, old man?” Adrian appeals to cheap sentimentality.“Your uncle sent Diane as my caregiver, don't worry,” Moacyr reveals to an astonished Adrian.“Then that's it? Will we never see each other again? Did Josias get what he wanted?”M

    At Vaztrans, William questioned Sofia about the company’s finances, which are now in order since her parents stopped interfering.“Uh, I think the explanation is simple. With my father no longer here, we don’t have that urge to prove we’re always the best public transportation company in the city.” Sofia sat face to face with him. “I remember my father would always freak out when people mocked the old bus models we had.”“Yeah, and he would waste money buying expensive buses that we couldn’t afford to maintain.” William accepted this explanation for now. “So, Sofia, you wouldn’t be offended if I said your father was just playing at being a manager?”Sofia made a face. “My father managed Vaztrans since its inception. I’m here to continue his legacy.”“I know you’ll do a good job.” William leaned back in his chair. “I just want us to keep things this way now that we’re in control.”Sofia crossed her arms. “Great.

    Vaztrans, morning. Brand new buses come in and out of the garage, with drivers and fare collectors smiling in their new uniforms. In William’s office (which used to belong to Olivia), he scratched his forehead while researching and checking the financial spreadsheets. Sofia, greeted like a diva by the staff, entered the office. “Good morning to you too! Have a good day at work!” She approached the desk. “Good morning, Will! What’s with that long face?” “I’m not making a long face. I’m making a face of someone who doesn’t understand this accounting,” William replied, still looking at the monitor. “What’s the problem? Are we broke again?” Sofia’s eyes widened. “No.” William finally looked at her, with a mischievous smile. “We have so much slack that we could pay off one of the installments of the loan we took from Josias if we wanted to.” Sofia continued with wide eyes. “Oh, that’s incredible, right?” William kept smiling. “Sofia, you’re not getting my astonishment.

    At Rocha Constructions, Josias and Alan faced a dilemma: should they start a war against the Borges brothers? Thierry noticed their initial hesitation. “If it’s too much for you two, forget it. J.J. and I will manage on our own. Maybe Daryl can help us.” The mention of Daryl made Josias react, “Wait a minute, Thierry. We never said we wouldn’t help you. On the contrary, I feel the same way: that truck was deliberately sent against the supermarket to cause that accident.” “Yeah, a way to force J.J. to choose between focusing on the farm or on Vasconcelos. No one but the Borges brothers was interested in that.” Thierry smiled slightly. “The problem is we have no proof.” Josias put his hands in his pockets. “The truck was on the street, there are no surveillance cameras nearby.” Alan asked, “But J.J. decided to stay with Vasconcelos, right?” “Exactly. That was our way of getting back at them.” Josias nodded. “So, our only form of investigation will be to observe how Reynaldo Borges

    Just out of spite, David was taken to the Happiness Slum police station, where Dylan was now interrogating him and pressing him against the wall. David was shaking while handcuffed, thinking he might have a chance to escape. “What is going on here? LET ME GO! This station is not equipped to handle my problems!” Dylan sat at the desk, keeping one of his subordinates nearby, standing by the door. “Oh really? It just so happens that it’s the opposite: Commissioner Tavares said he doesn’t want to see your face at the headquarters!” David was horrified by the remark. “What does that mean? We can’t allow such abuse! Call my dad immediately!” Dylan, grinning with delight, leaned back in his chair. “Mr. Souza, it was your father who ordered us to remove you from the Rocha Constructions building.” “That’s IMPOSSIBLE! My dad never ordered Alan’s arrest!” “Isn’t it because Alan Campos Rocha has never given the police any reason to detain him?” Dylan asked ironically. “And on what charges

    At the management office of Lafayette Supermarket, Thierry was signing a fat check for a member of the Cintra family. The man, who was the victim’s brother, was staring at everyone with disdain and arrogance. “You have to understand that we can no longer shop at this supermarket, right?” he kept saying. “My poor brother used to come here because the wine prices were cheaper, but now... we’re going to have to resort to the little store closer to home, even if it costs more!” Nadia was outraged. “Mr. Cintra, don’t be arrogant!” Mr. Cintra raised his chin at Nadia. “I can sue you for this too, you know?” “No, you can’t,” Thierry emphasized, tearing the check from the invoice and hastily extending it to him. “Take it and get out of our sight!” “You are in the wrong and still want to play the victim!” Mr. Cintra simply felt entitled to cluck. “Thank goodness my brother didn’t die! Otherwise, we would tear this crappy supermarket down! It was much better when the Ramos family ran this

    The next day, Daniela was talking to Dr. Matthew Hogan at General Hospital. “Alright, Daniela,” he said with a smile. “I hope we don't find anything serious in your tests.” “Could I... be pregnant?” Daniela asked in a whisper. Talking to Matthew inevitably reminded her of Silvana Hogan, his mother and a famous obstetrician. “My mother is now retired and enjoying the Bahamas,” Matthew said kindly. “If your test results indicate you’re expecting, we’ll refer you to the appropriate department.” “Thank you so much, Dr. Hogan!” Daniela extended her hand, and Matthew shook it. A few moments later, Daniela was walking through the corridors, thinking about the possibility of being pregnant. She even placed her right hand on her belly, already imagining herself carrying the heir of the Reis family. She smiled mischievously as she recalled the countless nights of passionate love where Pedro ravaged her mercilessly, only stopping when the alarm rang the next morning. How could she not

    Melissa worried about her parents' objection regarding the twins getting involved with their paternal family. "Mom, Dad, I understand your concern." Melissa broke the silence. "But in a way, they're right. I don't have the right to completely cut them off from Kelvin. Besides, they have another little brother." Dora looked at her wristwatch. "At this hour, Mary must be in the penthouse, keeping an eye on Anthony." "Oh, did they say they were going to do that?" Melissa smiled slightly. "Yes, someone texted them asking for it. Probably Kelvin," Simeon replied seriously. Dora explained, "Daughter, let's hope Daryl doesn't take advantage of the closeness to poison our grandchildren's minds." Melissa was alarmed. "What are you saying, Mom? I won't allow that!" "No, I know you won't allow it." Dora frowned. "That's why I hope you visit Kelvin and set some boundaries." "If I bring this up, I'll unintentionally be starting a stupid war," Melissa retorted. "They know their boundaries.

"Dear, before we were interrupted, you were saying something about me being right to be suspicious of Suzy Cogo. I knew that smartass was planning something!" Alan scratched the back of his neck. "I feel like she was the one Everaldo mentioned in the prophecy." Sofia's eyes lit up. "That's true! Suzy is the only one investing out there! Do you think she will want a slice of Rocha Constructions?" "I sincerely hope my dad doesn't agree to sell any shares. I won't do that. Better warn Caio." Alan became serious. "Well, I'll have to put up with her at Vaztrans." Sofia sighed, feeling discouraged. Alan turned to his wife with curiosity.
