MALTHUS SNACK BAR - DAYAnnie is at the counter making her traditional snack. Aurélio, thinking about yesterday's promise, decides to start talking, pretending to be cleaning where it’s already clean."And then, Annie...

RICARDO'S LIVING ROOMRicardo introduces Penha as his sister to Carina. Carina believes and approaches her."Ah, yes, very pleased, Penha! I am a great friend of your brother; we met a few weeks ago.

Penha asks."Yes, we met at Mayor Tito's Assembly.Ricardo proudly adds, "And the following Sunday I bought the first painting."Penha makes the atmosphere boring, "Ah, you are the painter who outwitted my brother, selling a painting of R$ 50.00 for R$ 300.00.
POLICE STATION - DAYCarlos reacts cornered when Tito asks him why he arrested Monica for no reason. The policeman dodges and tries to disguise it."Mayor... Miss Silva has caused her arrest."Tito doesn’t get it, "What did she do that was so serious?""She came here to discuss my relationship with Miriam and how this is affecting Carina. The two are fighting and this is irritating me.""And you needed to arrest Monica for that? You just had to let her go; say you weren't going to discuss this with her. You were unfair, officer."Carlos counters with disdain, "Did you come to scold me too?"Tito stands up and frown
RESIDENTS' ASSOCIATIONTito returns from the police station. Célio is in his place, typing on the computer, making the entries, with more force on the keyboard."I know the computer is new, but I don't want it to break the keyboard so young, son."Célio notices the way he types. Tito smiles, Célio calms down."Oh, sorry, Seu Tito, the day started very badly."Tito sits down, "You have been coming here in a bad mood lately.

RICARDO'S LIVING ROOM - DAYCarina gets up. She is shaking, with a purple mouth.Ricardo is passionate, "Feeling sick just thinking about defending yourself?"Carina retorts, "Feeling sick at the possibility of me being arrested!""Carina, you can't leave things as they are. I would gladly pay for that loss, but now I'm going to let you learn to defend yourself."Carina shakes her head vehemently, feeling that she has been punched by the Truth, "No, I don't want to take any chances! Or he'll arrest me... Or he'll repeat that bullshit he wants to protect me from, calling me an angel like you do... Maybe he declares himself for good!"Ricardo is getting angry, "If he de
FÁBIO'S LIVING ROOMFábio is watching television, all stretched out on the couch. Fábia Peres enters as if she were from the house. And she is already approaching the owner of the house, leaning over him."Hey, you crazy, what do you think—"Fábia Peres kisses him, but he moves away from her, wiping his mouth. He complains of disgust, "What do you think you are doing?"Fabia answers calmly, "Kissing my boyfriend, well!"Fábio is incredulous, "Have you gone completely crazy?""Yes, crazy in love," Fábia Peres smiles."What if Monica arrived at that moment?"

POLICE STATION - AFTERNOONCarlos is calmer, typing on the computer. Carina enters and approaches his desk. Carlos sees her and gets up."Carina! Honey, how are you? Sit down, please. How can I help you, my angel?"Carina sits down but she strafes at Carlos with her eyes, "You can start by stopping calling me an angel.""Only I have this right.""What article in the Penal Code is that written in?"Carlos replies gallantly, "In the Code of Love."Carina rolls her eyes, "Is Miriam also in compliance with this code?"
BUS STOPWellington is waiting for the bus to go to the bar. Luis is still afraid of the most leaked information."You almost miss it, Luis!""My bad, man, it was my bad." He whines."If Cássio knew that it’s Ricardo who is helping us, he will understand everything.""You mean everything we know, which is little. We need to discover much more."Wellington puts his hand on the chin, pondering, "Yes. Tomorrow I'm going to research Ricardo."Luis is wide-eyed, "Are you going to tell them
