On Saturday, the inauguration of the Happiness Slum soccer field is taking place.

The population is cheering and applauding the presence of Josias Rocha. The guest of honor is standing in the middle of the lawn, speaking into a microphone to the audience, as if he were the championship's top scorer.

William is sitting in the stands, pouting, arms crossed and sour while the rest of the family is standing and applauding.

"Dear citizens of Happiness Slum!" Josias begins the speech, "It is with great pleasure that I give you the soccer field that the community so longed for. With the compliments of Silva Constructions, we hope that our young people can have fun and thus not get involved in the world of crime and drugs. Have fun, kids, you deserve it!"

Everyone cheers and applauds in a standing ovation.

Melissa and other women are crying with excitement.

    On Sunday, Moacyr and Evandro show up at Adrian's house and find him sitting on the couch without a shirt reading the newspapers."Good morning, son." Moacyr greets him, "I missed you at mass today. Any interesting news?"Adrian drops the paper angrily, "No interesting job openings."Evandro picks up the newspaper that has fallen to the ground, "Job? You're not already successful with your job as a real estate agent? I saw your big car outside, what a machine!"Moacyr purses his lips and then complains, "Does this have to do with Josias working at Gomes Real Estate?""On his first day on the job and he insults me!" Adrian whimpers, "And that Bruno still helped. Everyone hates me at that real estate agency!"Moacyr laments with his head, "Son, with that childlike attitude, not even that Vera would want to marry you. Will there be time for me to meet my grandchildren?"Adrian stands up abruptly on the couch and walks in circles around t

You're scaring me.""Caio is spending his days at home, keeping company to Junior because his father is always taking his female fans to his house," Raymond informs with a grim face.Cristina laments with her head, "Oh, God. If Pamela wants full custody of my grandson, Melissa will think she wants war again.""But, that can't be!" Raymond exclaims, "Caio is calling me 'Uncle Ray'! I allow it because I don't dare to deny him. The boy is clearly in need of a father figure!""We need to talk to them..."

    Elisa gets annoyed when Melissa again asks about Marcelo and Stacy. The question is not whether this is true or false; is that Elisa doesn't even admit the hypothesis."You ask with past tense verbs as if that's a fait accompli!" Elisa complains through gritted teeth."I need to understand what happened to my brother." Melissa insists, "I can't imagine another 'Marcelo' other than your brother."Elisa shakes her head wildly, "No, it can't be my brother! Did you guys try asking Stacy?"Melissa rolls her eyes, "Of course not! She will never confess. Or she would be able to lie that it was Marcelo just to blame someone else.""My brothers are tired of asking Marcelo and he always denies it." Elisa snorts in spite, "This issue has lasted since 1986, they can't be able to hide it until now.""OK, Elisa, I won't bother you with this anymore." Melissa's tone doesn't make it clear that she's going to keep her promise, "I'm really worried about Will.

    Even though Elisa slapped Pamela, she's the one who wants to normalize things, "Now let's all control ourselves so we're not going anywhere! Pamela, stop being mad because you're pregnant!"Pamela massages the slapped cheek. Her look is still angry, "OK! Let's avoid any more scandals. The bottom line is that I came to complain about my son being neglected. When I agreed to share custody of Caio, William was supposed to do his part." She turns to Melissa, "If your brother doesn't want to take care of his son anymore, just let me know! Caio is calling my dad 'Uncle Ray'."Melissa is embarrassed by the information. She can't defend that, "Pamela, I ask for patience to talk to Will. He's still shaken by the breakup of his engagement and the giving up of his soccer career. His life is all in disarray."Pamela shakes her head and counters, "That's no excuse! He has the right to freak out if he was single and alone; but, he has a son! Caio is not to blame for any of th

    Josias doesn't dare to plead for William, since Beto is bursting with anger, and with good reason."Roberto, I understand you're angry." Josias tries to calm him down, "But I believe that leaving William out will be another blow for him.""And what will he do?" Beto counters with insensitivity, "Is he going to keep drinking until he gets cirrhosis? Is he going to keep fornicating indiscriminately until he gets SIDA or gonorrhea? And where is Caio in this story?""I just know that no one will be able to explain to Caio why he's going to stop living with his father again." Josias points to the important question.Beto, however, just shrugs, "At least this time he's moving in with his real mother.""Roberto, you already have another child on the way." Josias tries to change Beto's mind anyway, appealing to any objection, "I don't think your apartment can fit three kids."But, Beto has an answer for everything, "Don't worry. My mother-in-law sai

    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. "Speaking of which, dear, we haven't heard any news about Vaztrans being in trouble this year. Did you finally manage to control the spending?" Sofia looked confused.
