RICARDO'S LIVING ROOM
Ricardo 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. I live right behind, on this street."
Carina points to the west direction and Penha insists on registering the pointed side.
"Over there, right?" 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. Is it still Monica’s case?""Another topic.""I was at the police station and gave the chief a reprimand."Célio gets i
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?" Fábio gets
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
CASSIO'S LIVING ROOM - NIGHTCássio is standing on the phone talking to Luis. Sandra is sitting on the couch waiting for him."Hello, Luis. Cássio in the area, confirming our trip. I need to be at the market at 8:00 am, so we have to leave an hour beforehand so you don't miss your fair."Luis on the other side replies, "At 7:10 am is route A.""Deal, then. Let's sleep that tomorrow we will have to struggle. I always wanted to say that...""Clown..." Luis laughs and hangs up. Cassio does the same. Then he turns and sits down next to Sandra.She praises him, "My heart is overflowing with happiness when I see you like that, responsible, running after our livelihood...""Remember, darling, it's only until Célio tidies up the field. I still haven't given up on my dream of being a Brazilian champion. Until the soccer comes, we'll go as the packer to pay the bills.""Who knows, love, you don't think better... You can play your ball on Sundays with your friends. You don't have to be a prof
MONICA'S LIVING ROOMMonica and Carina break the hug.Célio responds cautiously, "Carina, we don't understand your irritation."Monica makes Carina sits, she calms down."Here's the topic, folks. I went to the police station to file the complaint against Miriam myself, and I told the officer that I was considering filing a lawsuit against the criminal."Monica reacts excitedly, "Is that so, Carina? How cool. You can count on me.""Well, Chief Roldão dodged it, avoided it, addressed me with cheap pick-up lines, but he didn’t make the bulletin against his girlfriend."Monica and Célio react in revolt.Célio protests, "It can't, people!""Chief Roldão is letting us down." Monica regrets.Carina goes on, "Tell me about it. I tried to reason with him, but he got angry and ordered the guards to arrest me.""Again? This is nonsense!"Carina takes a deep breath. She can't say that Ricardo went with her and was previously waiting. So she goes on, changing that little detail, "Then, out of nowh
