MALTHUS SNACK BAR

Cássio and Ed already sat at the table. Aurélio is standing up taking orders.

Cássio orders, "Two shrimp pies, Seu Aurélio!"

"Are you sure, Cassio? Last time you complained that it had released your gut."

Ed laughs.

Cassio reacts ashamed, "That's why I go in one. You can bring two for the smart boy here, who is growing up."

Ed makes a fuss, "NOOOOOOOOO!!!"

All customers look at the dramatic one.

Aurélio jokes, "After that, I'll even tune the TV to 'The Bold and the Beautiful'. There are some women..."

Ed crosses his arms, "O respect, huh, I'm underage!"

Cássio slaps his forehead and completes, "Bring a windy— cheese pastry for this unfortunate, Aurélio!"

Ed yells again, "YYYYEEEEEESSSSS!!!"

Again all the customers look at him.

Cássio asks ashamed, "Are you making me feel ashamed just because I brought you here?"

Ed nods, "For sure! Accept the consequences of your actions, man."

"And the consequence of your bad report is to eat. So don't change my mind and tell me righ

Annie and Monica pass by, greet the two with a wave and go straight to the counter.Aurélio receives both, but asks Annie, "Do you mean Jonas demands that you come with her now, Annie?""Stop, Seu Aurélio! Of course not, we promise not to touch on this unpleasant subject anymore."Aurélio smiles, "So I don't touch either. I just want to see you two happy, my daughter. I told Tito that.""What did you say to Seu Tito?"Aurélio looks up, inspired, "I want to see you, Monica, receive the Royal Hill Literature Prize; I want to see Célio's inauguration in a high public position; I want to vibrate in the stadium the first goal scored by Cássio; I want to be best man for Annie and Jonas wedding."Annie and Monica are thrilled.Monica praises him, "Oh, Seu Aurélio, what beautiful thoughts you have about us!""I think I'm going to cry..."

We're all here!""What's up, Célio?"Célio shakes the closed poster. Cássio and Ed leave the table and approach him.Cassio asks, "Dude! This is the..."Célio answers proudly, "Exactly. Da-rá!"Célio opens the poster. Carlos's chosen photo is on a blue background with a yellow slogan. For a beginner printer, the job was done well. Everyone is thrilled with satisfaction.Aurélio breaks the silence, "And you guys didn't want my contribution!""Thank you very much, Seu Aurélio." Célio says, "Your gesture will be rewarded."Cássio jokes, "He's already talking like a mayor!"Célio looks at Cássio. Annie and Monica admire it more closely.Annie says, "Miriam is a cow, but she knows how to take a good picture."Monica adds, "We have to show her. And show to Carina."Célio informs everybody, "Tomorrow I'm going to start sticking.""If Tito pays, I'll help," Cá

    MALTHUS SNACK BAR - DAYTuesday, everyone gathered at the snack bar to stick the posters. Aurélio is distributing tapes and glue to everyone. Monica, Annie, Célio, Cássio, Sandra, Jonas, Ed, Miriam, and Carina each take several posters.Cássio asks, "Ed, shouldn't you be at school?""I told my mom it's an extra activity that is worth a grade. You weren't going to leave me out, were you?"Cassio laughs, "Of course not, boy! Pizza for you later.""On second thought, I think I have a test..."Everyone laughs.Miriam boasts, "Guys, it's for nothing, but I know how to take some pictures very well. That's because you haven't seen the others—"Jonas looks disgusted, "Save us the photos of the shirtless officer, Miriam."There is general laughter, mostly from Carina, Annie, and Monica.Aurélio warns them, "Boys and girls, after you are done, everyone back here. I made that bauru that will support you as lunch, so you can take the whole morning if necessary.""But if it ends before lunch, we’ll

    STREET Célio and Monica put up posters on a street and obviously, the rest of the team left them alone. Monica looks around, "Where's the rest of the group? Have they gone to eat Aurélio's bauru?" "They must have gone to another street." Monica laughs, "Or they must have left us alone, on purpose. You'll have to be smarter if you want to take over as a politician, Cé. I wonder what your speech would be like." "I know, Little Monica, who will be watching me from the front row." Monica turns red. Then, she asks, "And will you be the second in line to receive my book's autograph?" "Yes, because the first one will be Annie." Monica reacts in shock. It's exactly what Fábio said. "Oh, what the hell, Fábio also promised that! I forgot..." Célio weaves a smile, "If you forgot, then you are no longer fixed on him, Little Monica." "Not a fixation, like Kid Abelha. I like him and he is thinking if he will forget Fábia Peres to ask me for dating." Célio uses extra tape, being angry, an

Ed is the only one who knows what's going on."Ed, stick to that post near number twenty."Ed asks innocently, "Worth a cheese pastry? I don't want the bauru."Cássio caresses Ed as an older brother. Ed walks away.Miriam complains, "Oh, I can't stand Ed's craze! Will we ever attend his funeral?"Cássio answers her angrily, "We all know that you can't stand Ed or anything, right, Miriam? You only stand Monica because she is the boss of the group."Annie and Jonas approach."What did this pervert say about Monica?"Miriam yells, "I didn't say a damn thing!"Jonas scolds her, "Schii!! Ed is right there.""And who cares?"Sandra ponders, "Cassio, you look weird today!"Cassio becomes cynical, "Who, me? It's nothing, dear. By the way, where's everyone?""Célio and Monica were alone.""Oh, how beautiful... So they immediately admit their love for each other and Monica

Annie says, "There have been people asking me how to help!"Aurélio replies, "They will produce a payment slip for us to pay the same bill for electricity, water, telephone...""One more bill for us to pay, but what to do...?"

    RESIDENTS’ ASSOCIATION - AFTERNOONRicardo insists on offering help for the police station campaign. Tito is embarrassed.Ricardo gives his typical little silly smile, "This is not the typical reaction of those who receive good news."Tito complains, "Boy, you are insistent; you really want to be part of it.""And I can't understand where the huge problem is in letting me participate. OK, I didn't look like some who are organized, but it's for a larger and collective goal.""Yes, the neighborhood is growing, and without adequate security, undesirable people are beginning to cause chaos."Ricardo wonders if the sentence was for him, "That's why. I explained to the police officer. Anyone who had a problem with 'cat' can't want a murderer or a drug user to harm him just because he wasn't a 100% honest citizen."Tito asks smartly, "Are you referring to yourself?"Ricardo shifts in his chair, "Nothing has been proven against me. If I wanted to do something serious, I wouldn't be here helpi

Did he intend to do that?"Ricardo laughs and Tito gets tense.He goes on talking, "Our officer friend, so predictable...""He has a huge reserve against you."Ricardo advances like a jaguar, "Okay, but you sir, who is the mayor of the neighborhood, will accept my help, right? You don't think about producing bills for more than a thousand families on this typewriter, do you?"Tito caresses the machine as if it is offended, "It's a relic that I want to keep. The Association's first Olivetti."Ricardo retorts, "The first and the last.""Look, young Oliveira, it's not that I don't want to accept your help, but there are things... Chief Roldão, for example."Ricardo gets annoyed, "What's with this guy again?""He is strongly opposed. He said that if he knows that you are helping in the campaign, he will ha

    BAKERY CASCAIS - DAYFábio enters the bakery and is amazed by what he sees: Monica prostrated in the chair, finishing crying, with Annie sitting next to her, comforting her and assuring her that she was not a bad friend for Carina. Jonas continues to serve customers, sometimes taking a look at both.Fábio approaches the two girls with concern, “Monica! What happened?”He kneels to her. Monica smiles slightly, touched by his concern, “It’s okay, Fábio. I was worse. I just remembered Carina and the worst step she’s going to take in her life.”“You are thinking about the lunch she has with the damn parents.”Annie explains, “It’s just that Monica is feeling guilty for not preventing Carina from going to that lunch.”Fábio caresses Monica’s hair, “My love, you tried, but Carina needs to make her decision. After all, everyone has to carry their load.”“She is going to suffer, Fábio. At least I asked her to keep an eye on the family. She could take advantage of the fact that she is going to

    PENHA’S HOUSE - DAYEverybody took the day to ask Ricardo trick questions. However, he felt it was not the time to answer or lie to the inquirers.He just weaves his classic silly little smile and avoids the subject, “Calm down, Penha, you don’t need to create conspiracy theories. The guy disappears from the bar for three days without giving any satisfaction. I thought he moved out of the neighborhood. I didn’t understand the disappearance.”Penha narrows her eyes, hardly believing what she heard. He kidnaps Wellington and then asks “why did he disappear?”“I hope he disappears. I always thought he was too good for your business. You were in danger of being reported by him.”Penha already knew the truth, since Wellington had told her. She just teased Ricardo, as if she had fun with it. She wanted to see his reaction.Ricardo was more nervous, tense, taking a deep breath, and “counting to three” so as not to reveal himself more than he did at the Malthus snack bar. Not with Penha.“Any

Nobody notices the window, where Ricardo is looking at the three with dismay.Ricardo goes back a few steps and enters the snack bar even with the “closed” sign on the door. The three men turn their attention to the door opening and closing and are surprised.“Ricardo?” the owner says, “We haven’t opened it yet, but we already have snacks in the showcase.”Ricardo looks with disgust at the snacks, “I don’t want to be a victim of the ‘Salmonella bar’ anymore. What are these two doing here?”Disgusted, Wellington drops the broom and approaches him, “You can ask us, directly. We are here!”Aurélio gestures for Wellington to calm down.Ricardo goes on talking, “And you, Wellington? Are you working here now? Aren’t you going back to the bar? Rubens is waiting for you until now!”Wellington looks at Aurélio in doubt, Aurélio responds affirmatively with a slight nod.“No, Ricardo, I won’

Because she had no intention of going.Even with her clear body language: pouting, arms crossed and one foot hitting the ground, Ricardo does not undo the classic little silly smile.“Did you interrupt my movie... for this?”Ricardo sits in the armchair closest to the coffee table and puts his feet on top. Penha can see from the soles of one of his shoes that Ricardo stepped on ox feces.“Get those dirty feet off my coffee table!”“You haven’t confirmed me yet, sis. The dress that Carina chose is beautiful. Did you choose yours?”“Get outta my house now!”Ricardo threatens to rub his foot with his dirty shoe, showing that he knows the situation of his shoe.“Come on, sis, say yes! A family lunch, with dad and mom...”Penha is about to cry, she is very nervous. She just wants Ricardo to leave, “Please, Ricardo, stop this clowning! I’m not going to show up for lunch to h

    PENHA HOUSE - NIGHTAfter Penha and Wellington cancel the lease agreement, the two say goodbye and Wellington leaves. Carlos leaves behind, without saying a single word, just smiled mysteriously at Penha, as if he knew she had just slept with Rubens.Then she takes a forgotten flannel in a corner and begins to try to clean the spilled coffee on the sofa, as it has practically dried, staining the fabric. Rubens, sensing the empty house, leaves the room furious and in long strides.Rubens takes Penha violently by the arm and makes her turn to him. Penha is startled by being taken by surprise and widens her eyes.“Hey, what are you doing?”“What did that kid come to do here?”Penha tries to get rid of Rubens, but he won’t let her go.“Let go of me! He just came to end the lease! He won’t be living in the kitchenette anymore!”“Did you send him to the bar today?”“I was so shocked by his decision that I didn’t even remember!”Rubens squeezes Penha’s arm tighter and she screams more, “You

    WELLINGTON KITCHENETTE - DAYCarlos cornered Rosa asking her to explain to everyone how Penha is Ricardo’s sister. She gulps, nervous.Wellington looks at her more deeply than the others.Finally, she decided it was time to end the mysteries. She gets up to explain better, “Yes, people. It’s true. Ricardo is Penha’s younger brother. However, since they moved here and built the building, they have presented themselves as lovers.”“But, why is that disgusting lie?” Everybody notices Wellington’s afflicted and distressing tone.“Because Ricardo believes that by presenting himself as a boyfriend, he prevents other men from flirting and taking Penha to bed.”The girls are embarrassed.Annie blushes and asks, “Doesn’t Penha know how to simply say ‘no’ to the perverts?”“No. She deliberately accepts to sleep with anyone who invites her. She has a boyfriend who is in Europe doing a Master’s or Doctorate and doesn’t even dream that his darling is horning him.”Wellington is very ashamed of him

    RHODIA AVENUE - AFTERNOONMore people gather to see Célio’s rescue, which hung in the window of Wellington’s kitchenette. Even Aurélio and his clients left the snack bar to see.“Guys, these windows... Who was the idiot who bought these big windows?”Monica, Sandra, and Annie exchange mocking gazes: they all imagined it was Ricardo’s idea with the masons.WELLINGTON’S KITCHENETTECarlos strides in and goes to the window.“Hang in there, boys!”With another strong man, it was easier to pull Célio back safely. When they finally succeed, he can hear the palms and cheers of those present from below. Célio runs to Wellington’s bathroom to throw up, he’s still scared.Wellington and Luís laugh out loud. Carlos then notices the boxes and suitcases, “Hey, what’s going on here?”Wellington stops laughing and announces to Carlos, “Officer, I’m moving out of here. I don’t think is right to live in the place where I have to pay rent for my kidnapper’s girlfriend.”Carlos smiles in understanding,

    PENHA’S HOUSE - DAYPenha opens the door for Rubens, who hurries in and looks worried. She closes the door and signals him to sit down.“I was going to offer you coffee, but you need chamomile tea.”“This is no time for jokes, Penha! The situation is getting more complicated.”Penha purses her lips in indifference; everyday things are complicated. She sits in the other armchair, “Every day you live in confusion. You guys don’t seem to want to live in peace. And if I guess, it has to do with Monica and her friends.”Rubens doesn’t like the tone of Penha’s voice and replies harshly, “It has to do with that bastard Wellington who didn’t come to the bar neither Wednesday nor yesterday! What is he thinking?”Penha, on the outside, remains calm and indifferent; but inside, she is overflowing with relief. It was what she wanted most, for Wellington to get out of that snake’s nest, “You’ll see, he found a better job and couldn’t even tell you.”“We paid above the minimum!”Penha is irritated

    MIRIAM’S ROOM - DAYMiriam is talking to Fábia Peres. The two got on well again after Sandra’s advice. Cleverly, Miriam leads the conversation to the topic of lawsuits.“Oh, Fábia, you don’t know the worst: I talked to Carlos and he said that he won’t insist on objecting to his fate at the trial. That he will acknowledge that he was wrong and accept the punishment.”Fábia Peres is gaping. Then the officer who always behaved like a warrior, dropping the towel so easily?“What does the officer have in mind, Miriam?”“He said he doesn’t mind losing the case, as long as he can get Ricardo behind bars. He’s gathering proofs and evidence.”“And is Carina going to marry this guy?”“Hopefully, she’ll fall flat on her face when she finds out the whole truth on her honeymoon, with the police invading their suite, ha, ha!”The two girls giggle maliciously.“Girl, on the subject of the trial, I’ve been thinking about something. If the officer is not offended, I can ask my father to pay the compen
