DIEGO'S OFFICE - AFTERNOONLawyer Diego Cardozo's office is located in one of these office buildings located Downtown. It's not very spacious, it's just his corner. The central office where the whole family operates is located in another building and occupies the entire floor. Here Diego has his privacy; he doesn't even need a secretary. He has his desk, his computer, drawers, cabinets, and files that he organizes and keeps, a window with blinds... something very intimate and personal.Now he is in his place and on the other side of the table is Ricardo, listening to his lawyer about the progress of the case."We need to define at once who the people we are going to sue in court. Miriam Abreu is clear that yes, but this Chief Roldão... Neglect to fulfill his duty just because the accused was his girlfriend. And when he discovered the connection between you and your girlfriend, it went from negligence to total refusal, culminating in an unjust and arbitrary prison. Not satisfied, he th
MONICA'S LIVING ROOM - AFTERNOONMonica doesn't want Annie to answer Jonas at her home.But, Annie wants to see how her boyfriend is doing and she lets go of Monica's hand, "Let go of me, creature! My boyfriend is calling!""And will you attend as an obedient bitch? Here's your chance to leave the violent in a vacuum.""Didn't you hear a word I said? Someone aroused Jonas's anger and I want to know why!"Jonas shouts, "Annie, please! I'm hearing your screams, is Monica hurting you?"Jonas's cry was one of sincere concern. But, Monica was even more irritated. How dare he think I would do something bad to my best friend?So she shouts back, "You attacked Annie, you rascal! Not me.""The police are here with me, Monica, I demand that my girlfriend leave!"Carina, wisdom in person, with her serene posture, stands between Monica and Annie."We will let him in."Without waiting for permission from the owner of the house, Carina goes to the door and opens it. Jonas enters and the policeman s
STREETS - AFTERNOONCarina is walking happily down the sidewalk to shop at the Rio Market, thinking about the happiness she will be when she smashes Miriam like an insect in the Courts. With the help of her beloved Ricardo and the efficient lawyer Cardozo, everything will be fine.She still not understands why Monica emphasized Cardozo as "beautiful and sensual" if that wasn't the case. Was Monica trying to arouse Carina's lustful feelings for the lawyer? Hot as chocolate he is, but Carina only had eyes of love for Ricardo Oliveira.A view of the street interrupted Carina's meditations. She sees her archenemy Miriam riding her bicycle, with some urgency, pedaling towards her house, or Monica's house. Carina pretends she doesn't even see her so as not to say "good afternoon", and Miriam doesn't care either. However, she turns back, suspicious."Again this girl on my street. Will she be taking pictures like the other time? It's getting weird..."MONICA'S HOUSE ENTRANCEFábia Peres is al
GRANJA SQUARE - AFTERNOONEd is walking with Claudio around the amusement park. It seems that Ed is walking to try to overcome the trauma he felt when he was on Saturday when Carlos fired the revolver in front of him. Cláudio is talking to him."So, son, are you getting calmer?""Seeing that you are more relaxed makes me more relaxed, Mr. Reis.""Good. To leave any bad atmosphere behind, we voluntarily forgive the chief. It must have been a misunderstanding. And the mayor assured us that the damage will be paid for by him."In this they see Ricardo approaching with the classic silly smile, "Mr. Reis? My name is Ricardo Oliveira. I need to have a few words with you. Hello, young man."Ed does not answer back. He just looks at Ricardo suspiciously."Let's go to my trailer then. Okay, son?"Ed shrugs, "I wanted to snack on the pastry of the Gods, but Aurélio's snack bar is closed, I don't know why. Excuse me."Ed walks away. The two men shake hands and Cláudio takes Ricardo to his traile
RESIDENTS' ASSOCIATION - EVENINGTito and Célio are now getting up to close the Association. Ed, however, arrives tired of running, and pants."Ed", Célio warns, "I know you intend to tell an important piece of information that you heard 'by chance'. But, do you need all this drama? Did you have to run as if you were running away from angry dogs?"Ed stops panting and goes to the water cooler, playing offended, "Ah, you guys break the mood for drama. The way I got in was more fun."Tito chuckles, "You young people take everything for fun. You will learn when you are our age."Ed drinks water with the face of someone who disagrees with Tito, but Célio gives him a warning look so he doesn't speak some rude words.Ed then finishes drinking, throws (missing) the plastic cup in the trash basket, and says, "I overheard a conversation by that sinister mobster encouraging Mr. Reis to sue Chief Roldão."Célio and Tito are surprised. They understood who the "mobster" was."It's not possible!" T
WELLINGTON'S KITCHENETTE - NIGHTDiscussion between Wellington, Luis, Cássio, and Célio. They want to get into Annie and Jonas's problems again, except for Célio, who feels guilty about the last event.Cassio doesn't agree, "What do you mean, Célio? Are you going to let our friend Annie down?""We have to remember that Jonathan is our friend too."Luis shakes his head, "I'm not recognizing this 'friend'. He almost hit me because of a domino game. We didn't turn this guy into a violent one, he dropped the mask yesterday.""I agree with Luis." Wellington says, "And I think Annie is in danger if she continues to have a relationship with this nutcase."Célio already signs that he wants to leave, gradually moving away from them, going to the door, "Well, I tell you what we got with Seu Aurélio's reaction: Annie will be penalized with Jonas, she will become more attached to him and will even hate Seu Aurélio for having beaten her boyfriend. And then Jonas will talk about our party. Annie is
MONICA'S LIVING ROOM - NIGHTMonica is perplexed when Tito tells her that Célio is afraid to tell her that she is wrong not to lose her.She gets up, excited, and tries to reason, "Seu Tito, there is something that doesn't fit this story. For example, you say that I don't make Célio feel comfortable saying that I am wrong because he would lose me. There is the point: he never had me to lose me. I'm not his. I'm Fábio Dance's girlfriend.""The stray kid...""Stop! Fábio does not work because he has no need; he is not to blame if he was born into a wealthy family.""One hour there is a financial setback and they are in ruin; how will the boy recover if he doesn't know how to work at all?""He's not a donkey, something he knows how to do! The point is that Célio is still harboring empty hopes. I have to get this out of him. Now, being his girlfriend or not, I never wanted Célio to abstain from giving his opinions."Tito gets up, not believing anything Monica said, "Monica, you may need t
BUS STOP - DAYLuis and Cássio meet again at the bus stop. Another day's work.Cássio tells him, "Today I hope you don't miss another day at the fair.""Ah, I'll make up for it today. The Parque Débora fair is open day and night. Usually, I choose a period, but with yesterday... I'll even go back with Wellington.""Today he works at the bar. So, man, how's the investigation doing?"Luis meditates for a few seconds until he decides not to talk about Penha, as it’s not necessarily Cássio's business, "So far, nothing much. We have wondered if what I am doing would not be wrong either."Cassio gives a pout, "No, friend, your business is more relaxed. What would be wrong with selling cassette tapes at fairs? Even more with the fees all paid.""Yeah, where they charged the license, everything was paid for.""Everything paid for by this friend you don't want to tell me the name of."The bus starts to approach and Luis uses that moment to focus on it and not respond to Cássio. Still in this s
