FÁBIO'S LIVING ROOM - DAYFábio is disgusted, disappointed, and hurt after listening to a cassette tape revealing conversations between Monica and Célio."But, that idiot is deserving of another beating! But, now I can't just blame him anymore. And Monica? How could she do this to me? Asking me to arrange my family's lawyer as if it were her idea? Yeah, she knows that I would deny if I knew whose idea it was."Fábio had already pressed "stop", now he rewinds the tape, pressing the button very angrily, almost breaking it."Let's hear this drug right from the start! Without hiding anything from me!"Fábio presses "play", and the tape returns to show the conversation between Monica and Tito. Fábio goes to the armchair and sits down, attentive to the content.CARINA'S STUDIOMonica realizes that for now, she won’t be able to dissuade Carina to accept Ricardo's marriage proposal, after accusing him of being responsible for the recordings and tapes."I see that you are reconsidering now, Mo

MONICA'S LIVING ROOM - DAYMonica is sitting on the sofa, reading the printed sheets of her second novel, checking for errors that she missed. She takes out a pen and shaking her head, crosses out a word, "If I publish this book now, people will think I didn't even study in elementary school! How did I miss this verbal agreement error?"Her phone rings. Monica leaves the sheets and pen on the sofa and gets up to answer it, "Hello?""Monica? Are you too busy?"Monica is surprised by the harsh tone of her boyfriend's voice, "I'm reviewing my second book. Did something happen, Fábio?""When you vacate, come to my house, please.""Okay, honey, I'm done and I'm going to go there quickly. See you later."Monica stays on the phone waiting for "see you" from Fábio until she realizes that he already hung up on the other side. Oops! What does he want to talk to Monica about? She, curiously, returns to the couch and tries to follow her work.COR-DE-ROSA STATIONERYRosa is trying to solve a sudok

FÁBIO'S LIVING ROOM - DAYFábio is furious with Monica, demanding an explanation about why she insists on meeting Célio, and the worst: having lied about it to him."I'm waiting for an answer, Monica! Where are those pictures from? Are you going to tell me that you hid the spicy ones, the ones that were taken from the bed?"Monica approaches Fábio and slaps him. He, hurt, puts his hand on his face, where the slap went."You know, more than anyone, that I would never skip the biblical script. And Célio never hinted at such immorality."Fábio gives a small sarcastic smile, "I don't know why, Monica... But, I don't believe it. I don't know what to believe in anymore. And you know what annoys me the most? I figured that Célio would keep tempting you, visiting you... But, you hid it. When I didn't want to hear Fábia Peres, it was a chance for you to be frank with me and tell the truth. But, you lied to me.""Fábio, I knew you were going to be upset and this material was produced to ruin ou

MIRIAM'S HOUSE ENTRY - DAYFurious knocking on Miriam's door. She appears, in an apron, as she is making lunch."I'm making lunch— hey!"Miriam is surprised. In front of her is Ricardo, glaring at her. She doesn't understand what he does here."What are you doing here? How did you find my address?""Carina taught me.""Ah, I should have known..." Miriam rolls her eyes impatiently."We need to talk seriously, Miriam."Miriam reacts in disgust, "Neither you nor she has anything to talk to me about. I already got a lawyer. Now, only in court! Wasn't that what you wanted when I got sued?""What I have to discuss has nothing to do with the history of the broken paintings."Miriam understands that they have already discovered that it was she who took the photos of Monica and Célio, "No, no way! What we talk about now can be used against me in the trial. My lawyer advised me to avoid clashes with you both, so if you'll excuse me..."Again Miriam tries to close the door, but the other person

GRANJA SQUARE - AFTERNOONCélio is walking in the square, looking for Ed. When he sees him passing toward Malthus Snack Bar, he intercepts him."Hey, Ed, we need to talk."Ed looks at him with disdain, "Now do you remember that we are friends?""Nothing like that, comrade! We have always been friends. What's up, still upset about that conversation about Luís and Wellington?"Ed snorts, but decides to explain what's going on, "When were you going to tell me that Carina was dying in the hospital?"Célio sighs with relief. It was not about a controversial subject, "Ah, about that. I'm sorry, Ed, it all happened so fast. We didn't have time to tell you. We don't even know how things are going.""What do you mean?"They walk towards the snack bar, "Ricardo forbade us to visit Carina.""You must have made a mess inside the hospital. There you cannot fight; the place requires silence so as not to disturb the patients."Célio is uncomfortable with the speed with which Ed defended Ricardo, alb

FÁBIA PERES'S BEDROOM - AFTERNOONFábia Peres insinuates to Fábio, tied and in his underwear on her bed, that the two made love. But, Fábio refuses to believe it because he was falling drunk and does not remember anything."Are you going to use the old 'I drank too much and I don't remember anything' trick?""But, it's exactly what happened! I won't confirm anything. I wasn't in my mental faculties."Fábia Peres unties the other knot, freeing Fábio's left hand. He leans against the headboard, waving his arms to normalize blood circulation."Your clothes were left in the living room.""Stop making up details. There was nothing, Fábia Peres!"Fábia Peres laughs mercilessly at Fábio's despair, "This is what you want to repeat in your mind to convince yourself that it’s the truth when the fact shows otherwise. Now, dear, what's wrong with what happened? You broke up with Monica, you came to my house in seeking solace and... it happened... and it was so good..."Fábio gets up from the bed,

SANDRA'S HOUSE - AFTERNOONFábia Peres is going to tell Sandra and Miriam what she did to Fábio earlier."Fábio was so high that he ended up sleeping drunk in my living room. So I had an idea. I took him to my room, tied him to the headboard, took off his shirt and covered him from the waist down, and took a photo! A lot of photos. And one of us, I put on a nightgown."Miriam and Sandra burst out laughing, but not in mockery to Fábia Peres; and yes, because she had a brilliant idea. It was another one of her rare moments of lucidity."Girl!" Sandra exclaims, "What a sensational idea! We have already captured what you want: you will send the photo to Monica!"Fábia Peres smiles; the smile says it all. The three girls toast again and pour themselves more coffee.Meanwhile, Miriam says, "This morning Ricardo came to my door to ask if I took pictures of Carina. I think Monica told her what is going on."Fábia Peres is intrigued, "But, why would Ricardo bother?""Because the car that passe

RICARDO'S LIVING ROOM - AFTERNOONRicardo is shocked when Ed informs him that Luís has fled from Rhodia River. For what reason? "Did you ever speak to him, Edward?""No sir. I was just informed by Célio. And he asked me if I knew anything. Rest assured that our secret is guaranteed."Ricardo is more apprehensive. So Luís ran away because of him! And the fair? "Ed, I'm going to tell you one more secret: Luís works for me. Doesn't he have his tent at the fair, where he sells the tapes? I was the one who provided everything. If he had a problem, I wasn't communicated."Ed thinks for a few seconds, and then makes up his mind, "Do you have paper and a pen? Write down his father's address."Ricardo makes his classic little silly smile. Ed is being more helpful to him than Rubens! Ricardo promptly goes to the dresser and passes Ed a diary and pen. Ed writes it down."Thank you very much, Edward.""I just thought you might know. I'm becoming the pivot of something I don't even know what it is

Chapter 360 The end of a dream
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

MALTHUS SNACK BAR - DAYAurélio is teaching Luís how to properly serve customers. Wellington is sweeping. 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’

PENHA’S HOUSE - NIGHTPenha is disgusted by Ricardo’s unexpected visit just to ask if she is going to lunch tomorrow. 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

Chapter 354 Time to revelation
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
