The supermarket is being set with Phil Collins's song "You Can't Hurry Love", but Wallace is not excited by the cheerful music. He goes to the office of the supervisor who fired Pamela last year.
"Sir, my girlfriend has already given birth and has recovered. Can she go back to work?" Wallace asks suddenly.
The supervisor takes a start and then pulls himself together. "Is she going to be pregnant with you again?"
"Not so soon, obviously," Wallace responds, feeling offended.
The supervisor disagrees with his thoughts. In his opinion, muscular and robust men like Wallace usually father at least five children.
Wallace takes advantage of the supervisor's silence and adds: "And I also need another job at this supermarket. Otherwise, I will have to resign."
The supervisor smiles very slightly and raises an eyebrow. How daring is this boy! "Well, Wallace, since you plan to grow in our company, I can refer you to another position. You with your big p
On Tuesday morning, Beto is having breakfast in the kitchen. To remember the time when Josias lived with him, Teodoro happily prepares a delicious breakfast.Beto is already chewing bread with scrambled eggs when Teodoro puts another frying pan with fresh, tempting-smelling bacon on the table. "Okay, Dad, I don't need anything else."Teodoro does not seem to have heard, as he puts on the table guava jam and buns. Then the landlord pulls out his chair and sits down. "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.""You still treat me like I'm eight." Beto is not complaining; he is talking with a wistful smile.Teodoro cuts a bun, fills it with guava jam, and hands it to his son without knowing if he wanted it or not. "So, can I already buy a camera to photograph the busted?"Beto starts to laugh. "I don't know. How are we going with Vera?""Vera is not coming very often." Teodoro explains, "She said that Pamela's mother was at the apartment
Pamela is drinking a passion fruit tea, sitting on the sofa in the living room of her parents' house. Coincidentally, Carmen is also there. Since Cristina made peace with her youngest daughter, the oldest daughter has also been forgiven.But, it seems that the owner of the house still holds the same opinion. Raymond steps down in a dress shirt and jeans, going straight to work. He just mumbled a "good morning" and left without paying attention to his daughter, who is shaking with anger and stress.After he leaves, Cristina takes a deep breath and asks her daughter: "Should I tell your father later?""Better not. I don't want him to know that I'm fighting with Wallace, I don't want him to be excited about looking for him to find out what's going on.""So he is not accepting the story of Caio and Josias," Carmen says."No, he wants me to stay with Caio, to challenge Josias in court." Pamela takes another sip, "But, I already said that I don't want to
Later, Tiago is talking to Romualdo about why they should hire Octavio. Romualdo has a skeptical look on his face while Tiago speaks excitedly."The boy is leaving college with new and modern ideas." Tiago argues with gestures, "And it would be a good incentive for him if he has a company that supports him so soon.""Is he not too busy with the monograph?" Romualdo asks with a slight smile."We will ask in tomorrow's interview," Tiago answers with confidence."You also said that it has to do with the loan shark that nobody knows the name of?" Romualdo leans back against the back of his presidential chair."Yes. He and Josias were high school classmates. If he joins Octavio plus Moacyr Barbosa, Josias will finally pursue justice for the murdered father." Tiago breaks his smile, "This crime cannot go unpunished. It's been three years...""Yes, those who killed Tony Rocha are under arrest, but the guy who ordered them to kill is still at large.
Inside the auto repair shop, Simeon is talking to the owner and his boss, resigning. Of course, he will not speak the real reason."It hasn't been easy for me, sir." Simeon tries to explain, "Now I'm living in Green Park, on the other side of town, and I'm taking two buses to come here."The owner comments: "It is a pity that we do not yet have a train or subway." He is a fifty-year-old man and is wearing formal clothes, "But, are you sure, Simeon? Do you already have something else to do, another place to work?""My future son-in-law is helping me. In fact, he helped me move there.""Ah, okay, I thought you hit the lottery. Green Park is not for everyone to live in." The owner laughs when he says that.Simeon also relaxes. The two continue to deal with his dismissal. Moments later, when Simeon leaves the small room of the now ex-boss, Jeremiah is hurrying away, but it is clear to Simeon that he was spying."Hey, Jeremiah!" Simeon cries out
Evandro is at the cafeteria serving his customers. Among them, Moacyr is drinking another cane juice and eating ground beef pastry.Octavio strides up and slams both hands on the counter, all cheerful and excited. "I don't drink beer, but I'm going to celebrate with cane juice! Evandro, serve me a very cold cane juice and see me that stuffed pizza pastry!"Evandro and Moacyr are infected with the boy's joy.Moacyr risks asking: "Any news?"Octavio does not know Moacyr, but he is so happy that he decides to answer: "Do you know Silva Construction Company? I will have the privilege of working for them as an architect! A nice girl just called me asking to come to the office tomorrow!""That deserves a little song!" Evandro opines. He goes to the radio and turns it on. Ironically, it is sounding "She Works Hard for the Money" by Donna Summer."Hey, I know enough English to know that this song is not talking about men," Octavio informs, and the r
Adrian is visiting Moacyr. Moacyr's new house is now furnished. The sofa and armchair are lined with white cloths sewn by Moacyr's late wife. Moacyr is sitting in the armchair while Adrian is standing in front of him, examining him as if he were a doctor. Moacyr's appearance is not good; he is pale and is complaining of a headache."Dad, we have to go to the doctor. You may be having a stroke." Adrian, despite being a sucker, is an extremely loyal son to his father.Moacyr smiles weakly, indicating that it is not so much. "I'm fine, son. I'm not indicating the classic symptoms of a stroke.""So that must be a lot of blood sugar." Adrian walks away and folds his arms, "Have you been eating again at Evandro's cafeteria? Watch out, Dad, you may be or maybe you already have diabetes. I, who am younger, don't keep stuffing myself with these fatty snacks."Moacyr licks his lips as if he wants to eat more. He smiles just like Teodoro: "Actually, I killed myself
Wallace is in mixed emotions. He doesn't want Pamela to think that he is cheating on her with Vera, at the same time he is happy to see that Pamela is jealous; because that would be an indication that she loves him."What is the matter, Pamela?" Wallace smiles very slightly, by the corner of his mouth, "Are you jealous?"Pamela takes another cup and throws it violently at Wallace. He ducks and the cup goes away, crashing into a wall."You bastard, idiot! And then do you complain that I want to marry Josias? He's not an idiot and blind like you!"Wallace gets angry and loses his temper with his girlfriend. "But, then, don't you like Vera's visits? Why do you consider her as her friend, after all?""I liked Vera until I saw she's having feelings for you and you're responding! You miserable dog!" Pamela roars feeling entitled to be jealous, when she goes to bed with Jeremiah whenever they can."That's enough! You are not going to the supermarke
Moacyr is thrilled with the news from Romualdo, that Adrian will have a job at Silva Constructions. He stands up and extends his hand to greet him: "Thank you so much, Mr. Silva! I'm sure my son won't waste this opportunity!"Romualdo hesitantly shakes Moacyr's hand. He does not want to tell the deluded father what he is planning for the indigestible Adrian.After Moacyr leaves, Josias and Melissa are almost having a heart attack when they hear the news."He what?" Melissa yells the exclamation, "Mr. Silva, don't spoil the mood of my day!"Romualdo smiles from the corner of his mouth. "Calm down, my daughter; the poor Mr. Barbosa came here practically to plead with his stray son to have a job, I couldn't resist.""And what is he going to do in here?" Josias asks incredulously, "It's because I don't believe you are going to give him anything to do on the construction sites. Adrian is too proud to work as a bricklayer assistant.""If you put h
