FÁBIO’S LIVING ROOM - AFTERNOONCássio now has to watch soccer with Fábio to pretend the forced friendship with the other plan. But, he has one more mission to accomplish. After the two shout "goal" and the narrator calls the break, he strikes again."How lucky the goal came right at the break," Fábio says."So the team celebrates at halftime.""That's right. But, huh, I thought you were Corinthians."Cassio disguises himself, "W-well, when Coringão isn't playing, I accompany the other teams."Fabio smiles, "Good to know that you also appreciate Vasco."Cassio answers in his thoughts, "Only you, Fábio Dance!" Now he says, "And so, I didn't see you yesterday at the Assembly.""Ah, man, what an annoying thing! This gentleman who is playing as mayor is not going to change anything. Just hire a private company and have that square repaired, because if you are going to wait for the City Hall to look at this distant neighborhood...""Hope and faith, comrade, we’ll be treated equally. Now, wh
MONICA'S LIVING ROOM - NIGHT Fábia gets caught, but still wants to come out on top. Monica keeps her hand on her face. Fábia disguises it, "A woman's discussion, you officer." Carlos shakes his head, "A woman or a messy woman? I could hear it on the sidewalk." "Fábia was already leaving," Monica says coldly. "That's right, you cop," Fábia turns to Monica, ironic, "Good night, dear neighbor!" Fábia Peres leaves and Carlos passes inside. "Are you going to press charges, Monica?" Monica smiles slightly, "Chief, this is not important." "Carlos. Outside, you can call me Carlos. I'm not even in uniform, even though I'm armed." "Oh, Carlos... It will be hard to get used to. Sit down. Do you want some water, coffee...?" Carlos is kind, "Oh, no... I was, you know... I was going to Carina's house. But, as I said, I heard your scream... And that hand on your face, is that what I'm thinking?" "What are you thinking about?" "'Marimar' or 'A Ursupadora'." Monica laughs and ends up reac
FÁBIO’S LIVING ROOM - NIGHT Fábio asks Fábia Peres if Monica had anything to do with Cássio's plan. And the dishonest girl decides to slander Monica. "Darling, I’d never have an idea like that! And just with Cassio? I know you weren't intimate in childhood, you would suspect! Look, I can't prove it, but it must have been Monica. She wouldn't call Célio because it would be worse." "What a lack of self-love this guy has! Anyway, Fábia, I got it right from the start when he showed up here forcing intimacy, but I must admit that his way of touching the subject of magazines was smart." "But, I didn't speak to him, dear, believe me..." Fábio approaches her, "Yeah, Fábia, I believe. After all, you wouldn't have the mental capacity to come up with something so —" Fábio interrupts himself before Fábia understands what he is saying. He opens his arms and she runs towards them. The two smile and embrace. Fábia says relieved, "Forgive me, my love! I’ll never distrust you again. You are righ
MONICA’S LIVING ROOM - DAYMonica is in full swing on her computer, it's Monday and she wants to start the week with greater productivity, unlike most Brazilians. However, her concentration goes to the swamp when she hears a knock on the door."If it's Fábia Peres, I'm not!"Fábio's voice from outside, "It also starts with 'F'."Surprised, Monica gets up, goes to the door, and opens it. Fábio passes by and enters with his eyes hard and cold."Fábio, did something happen?""Yes, it did. It happened that you let me down, Monica."Monica is on alert, she knows that a bomb is coming, "What happened? Did I do anything to you?""Not directly to me, but to my girlfriend, Fábia Peres. Your neighbor."Monica snorts, "Don't remind me that this girl is my neighbor.""I see that you do not get along. I understand; you are in your right. But, that doesn’t give you the right, Monica, to plant doubts in the mind of Fábia Peres, even more denigrating my character! Do you mean that for you I am so desp
MIRIAM’S BEDROOM - DAY Miriam is sleeping like a saint, even though it was late. She turns from side to side and smiles, she is dreaming. She begins to embrace herself, dreaming that she is embracing someone. "Oh, Carlos, hug me... Oh, Carlos, what huge arms you have... Oh..." Miriam wakes up, opens her eyes, and... ... Scream! She comes face to face with Monica. "I'm not who you expected, am I?" Monica asks jokingly. Miriam gets up, "Definitely not. I was dreaming of something much better." "And it’s this dream we need to talk about. Girl, you are so distracted that you left your door unlocked. What if a thief appears?" Miriam, dreamily, leans against the headboard, "Nothing is gonna happen to me while Carlos is in the neighborhood." "If you continue in this Glen Close style, he will move to Várzea do Nego, dear." Miriam scratches her eyes, "Monica, what's so important for you to take my morning breath?" "Dear, yesterday Carlos was going to Carina's house." Miriam has two
COR-DE-ROSA STATIONERY STOREAurélio enters. Rosa is at her post, the store is still empty."Good morning, Aurélio. Haven't you opened the cafeteria yet?""I had no customers, so I posted the 'I'll be right back' notice."Aurélio sees Monica's book among Rosa's things. She realizes it."It's a really good book. I need to congratulate her.""Yes, and in my eagerness to protect her, I came up against a problem. To fill in the ISBN document, I need Monica's data. And I don't have all of them.""Oh, Aurélio, what a pity..."Aurélio suddenly smiles, "But... this would be valid for the national territory. The registration that applies to Royal Hill is much easier! It doesn't ask for a lot of data. It asks for more data from the book and I was able to provide it. That's why I'm going to pay the fee!"Rosa reacts with relief, "Ah, Aurélio, what good news! At least here in Royal Hill, she is protected.""Yeah, but I better open the game for her and remind her of the national register. If they t
MALTHUS SNACK BAR - DAYJonas is jealous of Aurélio with Annie.Aurélio's face turns cold and he defends himself, "Jonas, now I understand you. And, son, I didn't give reasons—""Cut it out, old bastard! You don't fool me. Do you think I care about the fact that Annie comes here to eat your awful snacks? Of course not! Brazil is still capitalist; Annie is free to eat wherever she wants. The problem is not the cafeteria, it's the owner!"Aurélio responds more firmly, "Jonas, since you want to talk like a man, then I'll send you the message: stop insulting Annie!"Jonas got surprised and sarcastic, "Oh, look who's talking! Who's tainting her reputation? I saw you two at the pizzeria, through the windowpane! And who else saw you thought a lot of bullshit!""Stop being ridiculous, that I'm a father to her.""She already has a father, her name is Paulo!""I didn't say I am, I said AS a father, my affection for her, for all of you, is that of a father, an uncle."Jonas shakes his head and is
CASCAIS BAKERY - MORNINGRicardo is still sprawled on the floor, looking like a legitimate drunken Russian. Carina and Annie become terrified, somewhat comical; they think they killed the guy."Jesus Christ," Annie cries, "It was just what I needed! One death on my back!""He was the criminal and now we are going to jail!""Did Jonas's dad leave?""Oh, my friend, I hope he left, otherwise he kills you!""And Jonas was leaving right now..."The door opens and Monica appears. She comes happy, "Girls, I have good news!" She sees Ricardo, "But, what happened?"Annie tries to disguise it, "Falling drunk!""Ha, ha, ha, it's really funny, Annie! Monday morning, and is he like that? Vasco team lost of turn unless he's mourning."Carina answers in distress, "Our fault, Monica. He wanted to chat with me and I rejected him, I was very afraid of him. Annie saw my amazement and wanted to defend myself by throwing a bottle at him. Then he let me go, but now it's like that."Monica crosses her arms,
