I'm crying.
Look, check this out.
You won't believe. This one got here scared!
He arrived shaking his little legs like this.
Shaking all over.
-Looking like he saw a ghost! -Stop teasing me,
-this is serious. -Yeah, Dr. Átila is gay!
-What do you mean, gay? -Dr. Átila Argento.
What did he do? This.
He put his hand on my crush's thigh,
this yummy man of mine!
-I won't tell you a thing again. -Lino?
He drunk a little too much, got excited,
if I hadn't stopped the car, he...
-Whatever. -The car?
-Lino... -The car.
-Don't scare me. -Stop it!
Did Átila harass you?
I think we have to report it.
-Of course! -Who would believe me?
There's no proof, no one saw it, it's my word.
It must be that! Wait, wait, wait...
It must be that.
That botox devil
used it to blackmail the old man, Átila.
-It must be that. -Sure!
Of course, she must have some evidence!
That's what we must do. We can't pressure Átila.
We have to gain his trust!
Damn...
Átila? Gay?
What, Elvira?
What?
I know that perfume you're wearing. It's Lola's.
She gave it to me. I use it to please her.
Carol.
Ramona overslept...
and left the kitchen free for my poached egg.
Ugly face? Don't you like it?
No, I drank a little more than I should have yesterday.
It's amazing how a doctor never follows his own orders.
On top of that, old and doing something stupid!
You messed up, grandpa.
I heard how you treated Andrea when she came here.
That?
For God's sake, Carol,
your dad seeing a tranny, it doesn't make sense.
A trans woman, grandpa.
Your prejudice doesn't make sense, I don't get it.
Tomás is like a son, I can't keep my mouth shut
watching him get into a story that won't work out.
I see, if that's the case, when uncle introduced Lola,
you thought it would, right?
I won't talk about her,
-she's a thug. -Exactly.
You accept a thug, but not a trans woman.
Is that so?
I don't like that tone, young lady.
Grandpa, I want to understand how someone like Lola
can have so much power over you.
She won Lolaland after all, as a prize!
-That doesn't make sense. -I'm unwell.
And you should know your place.
It's rude to confront me like that.
Come on, grandpa!
I adore you and you know it,
but you can take this unpleasant conversation
along with that overcooked egg.
SCARS OF BEAUTY
Who is it?
Mail.
I'm coming.
Thank you. Where do I sign?
My candy, baby.
-Get out. -Relax.
-I swear I'll scream. -Relax.
Relax, for God's sake. Relax, I lied to protect us.
See the bright side,
my marriage is over, I'm free!
-You're a runaway. -Calm down.
Gabriel made up a lie. I know you handed my cell phone to him.
-I, I don't... -Calm down, I forgive you.
I forgive myself too, we can run away.
The Argentos got me
like a scapegoat in this story.
Believe me, honey. My candy girl, my candy girl.
-Candy girl. -I'll think about it.
-Let go, I'm late. -Late?
I just came, I opened up. What's this talk?
-Rog, let go. -Are you meeting Tomás?
Talk to me, you bitch!
You bastard...
Help!
It all looks like...
If you say Lolaland, Gabriel...
Nothing's pink here.
-Lolaland without Lola. -Better this way.
I did what you asked.
I asked grandpa about Lola getting in the family.
-And? -He freaked out.
He was rude to me.
He even yelled. You should've seen it.
It confirms it all. Rog and Benjamin operated on Rebecca.
Lola knew everything.
She blackmailed your uncle and managed to enter the family.
-Do you think grandpa knew? -He wanted to protect his son.
-Of course. -No way, Gabriel!
No, that's too much, covering up a crime?
He wouldn't do that.
Now,
Lola blackmailing Benjamin,
that's normal.
It seems they're all for sale.
You know Julia? My friend, ex-friend.
What? What happened?
I called her to work here,
she preferred Lola.
I can't understand Julia either, it's disappointing.
What?
What do you mean? Are you close?
Carol,
I didn't tell you before because she didn't want
to tell no one, to say anything.
She didn't want to tell my mom or you.
Julia and I had an...
-affair. -What?
I fell in love with her. I mean, I still like her.
But it's over.
Because she preferred to stay on Lola's side.
Stop right there!
What is it?
I have such a good taste!
Look at this!
Look how this outfit makes you look great!
I remembered what you said. That every day is a special day.
Even more special
is to be Lola's partner.
Put that bag there.
Come with me.
If I was ever poor, I don't remember it.
It'll be really hard to go back to work
after this queenly morning!
Don't worry, I know my place, okay?
I love it when you play humble.
So cute.
You know, I've used this trick.
To conquer everything I've conquered.
Look at my castle. It worked.
Didn't I tell you? I booked with the TV producer,
Guto Mourão, Narcisa's best friend.
-Lola, do you think it'll work? -Of course it will.
TV needs to be renewed, Zuckerberg.
Come on, they love young people,
people, real people. Me!
You'll agree that there are no women with the charisma that I have.
Don't you see it in you? You were there, all wilted,
I just had to put on Lola's old rags and, look...
you blossomed.
That's what I want.
I want to revolutionize people's lives, Zuckerberg.
-How do you intend to do that? -With a documentary of my own.
From Joanópolis to the world.
It's Lola's turn!
Seriously.
I'm serious.
-Here, Andrea. -Thanks.
Gilberto,
this is the case of a 24-hour vehicle
-in front of her house, right? -Sure, let's do it.
Rog knows I gave the phone to you.
I was forced to pass it on to Benjamin's lawyer.
Benjamin and Rog must be in touch.
We think they're talking to each other, but...
-we can't prove it. -And the messages?
-Did you manage to recover? -Unfortunately not.
Did you call me?
Yes.
-I want to apologize to you. -No, no problem.
No need, sir.
Nothing's more noble in a man's character
than his ability to apologize.
Or to accept them.
Apology accepted.
Alcohol,
you know, it's unpredictable.
I know how it is.
I hope this doesn't sound rude,
but I wish I could
reward you for this embarrassment.
No need.
My word is also worth gold.
This story ends here.
Geez, I’m slumped.
I don't know, this foot bath,
the procedures made me lazy.
I'm not very productive.
I'm going home.
Let's go!
Hurry up, Zuckerberg.
But I still need to take a few more photos.
Is it okay if I stay?
-In my office? -Don't you trust me?
No... Of course. Leave everything locked up.
-Okay. -Okay?
-Everything in place. -All right.
-Bye! -Have a good rest.
Mrs. Gisela,
Gabriel is here to talk to you.
Let him in.
Please.
Gisela,
how are you?
Alone.
Watching the world chase my husband.
Do you really believe that?
Deep down I know you know the truth.
I know you want to help clear up this story.
-Did Rog look for you? -No, he didn't.
He looked for Andrea.
He tried to flee with her, she refused...
-he attacked her. -My God, is she okay?
She is, she narrowly escaped.
Rog is a dangerous guy.
Do you know about his passport?
Gisela, he'll try to escape.
Disappear forever.
If Rog looks for you, let me know.
And no matter what he tells you, don't trust him.
Promise?
What's up, big baby?
Came to see mom?
You are no longer welcome in this house.
By the way, who let you in?
It's amazing how you tremble when you see me.
Rog is cornered, threatening people.
Andrea went to the precinct.
-You know? -What do I have to do with it?
Aren't you the one who sends messages to him?
Give this message to Rog,
his days of freedom are numbered.
-I hate this western atmosphere. -Yeah, right.
-You live here. -Honey,
I've put up with this family for so long.
I won't leave like a homeless person.
Because I have rights.
I'm also an Argento.
Also, how did you enter this family? Was it blackmail?
-A scam? What was it? -Enough, okay?
You won't offend me anymore.
You know what? I'll tell you.
-What is it? -I tell him.
Don't fall for his talk,
-you don't have to. -I will, you know why?
Peace, that's what I want.
Look, it's hard.
It's hard for a mom
to expose herself to a son like I'll have to do now.
The truth, Gabriel, is that I...
was Benjamin's lover.
I...
cheated on your dad with that...
with that jerk!
But my marriage to your dad
was already ending.
Your dad, he barely looked at me,
barely touched me.
And Benjamin,
he was always at Rog's clinic when I worked there,
so kind.
Complimenting me,
courting me.
And I was needy.
We got involved,
we fell in love.
Love...
uncontrollable love.
That's it.
Sorry, son.
When your dad,
when he died,
may God rest his soul,
I felt that I deserved to live my story, to be happy.
Got it? I was so young, I was so naive.
I had no idea I was walking into a snake pit.
I had no idea that that wonderful man
was going to become this sham,
this sham of people,
this weakling who just wants daddy's approval!
I didn't imagine
that behind that silly country girl
such a cunning woman was hiding.
Look, Gabriel,
I regret every day having fallen for that scam
shameless woman talk!
What is it?
Are you judging me?
What do you think I am? A slut?
That I cheated on your saint of a dad? Go!
Go!
Throw stones at me!
Come on, son! Do as Benjamin did,
point your finger at me, curse me!
-Calm down. -Calm down? No way!
You just accuse me, you just push me,
you force me to talk about my private things.
For what?
No mom,
no woman deserves to be treated like that.
I can't take this anymore!
I can't take it!
ÁTILA ARGENTO PLASTIC SURGERY CLINIC
Humanized screening.
They're investing in it as a differential.
I spent some time studying and it might work.
Okay.
I'll take a look.
I thought you would be more excited.
Sorry.
I met Gabriel earlier and...
whatever.
Are you like this because of your ex-fiancé?
No, Gabriel asked me to ask
my granddad how Lola entered the family.
I did it. My granddad freaked out!
-How did he freak out? -He freaked out!
Completely. I don't understand anything!
It's all very weird.
And not only that.
Gabriel told me that he and Julia were together.
Can you imagine?
-Did you think it was bad? -No.
-Are you jealous? -No.
I don't even think about him. Gabriel is gone.
-But... Julia! -But what?
Julia should have told me.
Acting like a friend the whole time
and seeing Gabriel behind my back. I'm really such a fool.
Amazing.
I get you.
I don't know if it's because of her that you're mad.
No, no, no... Let's not go down this path
-right now. Please. -Okay. We'll talk.
Seriously.
Was it or wasn't it a masterstroke to tell Gabriel
that we had an affair before?
-Man... -A bitch, a bitch, yes.
But never a murderer.
Benja, do you understand?
You and I, together, we're infallible...
Do you think so, Lola?
You mistreat me, then come to me to put out your fire?
Why do all couples fight?
To make peace.
That's the beauty of marriage, honey.
Come here. Come. You're going to be my lover.
What? What's this now?
It's much better to have a lover than a husband. Got it?
Look,
in front of everyone
we're still sworn to death, now, in bed...
in bed,
we're like hand and glove, got it?
So I gain Gabriel's trust
-and you your dad's. Got it? -It's no use.
-He won’t look me in the face. -It's time for you to show
that you're a real Argento, got it?
That you can take his place.
Your dad is already on his deathbed, isn't he?
Go. Grab it.
Grab what's yours, grab it.
Come here,
does this mean we're going to meet in secret?
You thug!
You like it.
Don't you?
I adore it.
I missed you so much.
-Me too. -Really?
I love you,
-I love you so much, Benja. -Me too, honey.
Hold on.
We thought it was someone else.
Rog?
I heard he was here.
And you, Tomás, what are you doing here?
I didn't know Rog was your husband. I swear.
-He lied to me. -He lied to me too.
You see? He's been lying to me all these years.
I was married to a man, Andrea, that I...
that I invented in my head.
I'm such an idiot.
I've always been very stupid.
No, Gisela, it's not your fault. Okay?
Andrea,
you were the person...
who reached me out a hand
when I needed it most.
And what did I do?
I humiliated you.
Please,
I'm sorry.
Come here.
It's fine.
He will pay for everything he did.
You shouldn't have left, man!
-I called you a thousand times -Damn it!
-and you didn't answer me. -Come on.
-Chit-chat. -I had to find a way.
Hungry, I had to get by.
Were you hungry? What is Andrea? A cook?
A cook? What is she?
-Lunch lady? -She's a traitor, a bitch! That's her!
-You shit! -Just look,
I want to get out of here, disappear, and I want my money.
-Don't forget. Look. -What is that?
Don't forget.
If I go down, you go with me.
-I turn you in. -What?
That little ass of yours. That little ass there.
Look at his little ass.
It'll be famous in jail, bro, isn't it?
It'll be famous.
-Tell me. -It will be my word against yours.
I happen to be an Argento.
And you,
you are a Rogenildo!
You piece of shit!
Who is a... Son of a...
You piece of shit!
Enough for me!
Get by on your own!
Forget about me.
What is it?
Benja.
Benjamin.
Benja, don't leave me...
Don't leave me alone.
Don't.
Benjamin.
You woke up in the mood.
If I don't take care of myself, who will?
Look, work from here.
Ramona is preparing a green juice.
You should drink it, you look very unhealthy.
I saw Benjamin leaving, his face was bruised.
What?
-Do you think I slapped him? -Of course not.
Benjamin and I are broken up, but we still make out.
Just sex.
I work miracles but I'm not a saint.
But like,
aren't you curious
to know where he's going and with whom?
This must be his thing with Rog.
It's typical of them to fight like that.
But Rog is on the run.
With whose help, cutie?
I won't get involved in that.
Then it'll be my fault.
Where's Ramona with my damn green juice?
Ramona!
Ramona, what is it?
Are you buying vegetables at the market to make my juice?
-Geez, where are you? -Do you have to shout?
You think you're the winner of the beauty contest, dear.
Because you won the beauty section of grandpa's clinic.
If you need tips, don't count on me.
Tip? Are you crazy? I don't want tips from you.
You want my finance department.
Don't you?
Take the opportunity to take some classes with Julia.
The poor guy is falling for her, you know?
-I saw it. -Alec and Julia?
When the two of them are together...
sparks fly.
Girl,
you could have a threesome, couldn't you?
Lola,
-you are ridiculous. -Ask your boyfriend.
Ramona!
I feel a little anxious, you know, Elvirinha?
I don't know if you saw Rog on TV.
-Did he look for you? -No, not yet.
-Cut and turn over three cards. -Okay.
There's an unexpected return.
He will look for you.
But there's a woman here,
very sensitive, which will help you.
And then comes justice, and justice is relentless.
Pay attention,
you must tell the police. It's the only way
to get this dark knight out of the way, got it?
But there are good things, too.
I see the path opening... What?
Prince?
Dance?
-Dance... Dancer? -Dancer!
Dancer! Javier, remember I told you, the dance teacher?
The school.
The school of fish, don't waste time, grab him,
kiss, grab, have sex, do it all.
I'm not the one saying it. It's the cards.
Doctor Átila?
Yes?
Excuse me.
Do you have a minute?
-Did Lola send you here? -No, she's in the shower.
Dr. Átila, I'd like to say that I admire you so much.
Even working for Lola
I don't agree with everything she did and does.
-Right. -I heard that you were blackmailed
so she could get Lolaland.
She told me your secret.
If you think you'll blackmail me too...
The photos.
On a flashdrive.
Unless she put it in the cloud, it's here.
I can imagine what you are going through.
I don't want to be a part of it.
I ask you, please don't tell Lola about this talk.
Will you give it to me like that?
-For free? -I'm doing what I think is right.
Excuse me.
Do it, blessed one. Do it!
Okay. Let me introduce you to my dad, wait a minute. Dad!
Excuse me. I want to introduce you to someone.
Look, this is Mrs. Elvirinha.
What a pleasure to meet the dad of dear Gisela.
I can feel your energy.
A man of science.
You won't believe this nonsense.
Science can't explain it all.
Blessed one, get me some water.
Okay, wait.
There is a disease that consumes you from within.
My daughter must have told you about my cancer.
That's not what I'm talking about.
But the reason for the disease.
Of the secret that you keep.
Really?
No, really? Sure?
-Sure? -Stop!
-Stop it now! -You know what you like.
Commit to that love. Let it out!
Just commit to it.
Maybe there's time for your healing to arrive.
What?
Can't you see your cell phone?
I called you many times.
I need to ask you a question.
And I need you to answer me honestly.
Can I trust you?
What? I don't get it.
Were you and Julia a couple?
What are you talking about?
Don't lie to me.
No need to lie. She can lie. I don't care.
Not you, say the truth. Did you have something with her?
Why didn't you tell me?
It was a long time ago.
I thought I didn't have to.
Who gossiped about me to you?
Lola.
-Sure. -Played a trick and it's true.
Wonder how I feel.
Who are you?
Who are you for real?
A guy who's completely in love with you, Carol.
I don't want things from the past to set us apart.
What do you mean? You're always hiding everything.
Sorry.
I hate lying to you.
It looks like another lie.
Can you please leave me alone?
Get out of here. I want to be alone.
I'll tell you the truth.
Julia and I...
Sorry to barge in like this.
I was attracted by energies, are you okay?
No need to be a psychic to see that you're upset,
-I can see the smoke coming out. -We're just talking.
We don't know each other yet.
Elvirinha, my pleasure.
Excuse me.
-Geez. -Where did you come from?
I was with Gisela.
That's it, guys. See you next week.
Don't miss class. Did you hear, Paulete?
Looking for Andrea? She's not here.
No, actually, I already talked to Andrea.
I wasn't fair to her.
Not even with us.
What do you mean?
I don't want to waste more time.
Guto, TV producer,
called and will schedule an interview for next week.
Next week I might be dead.
Schedule it for yesterday,
-find a way, Zuckerberg. -What is it?
Why the rush? You're so busy.
Is it just me
or are you getting in the way of my TV show?
I am not.
It's because...
Television, Lola?
I'm not sure if you need to expose yourself like that.
I'm only going to expose what's necessary, Zuckerberg.
My poor childhood, my determination since then.
I was always so different from those people.
So superior. You know what I'll say?
That I came to Rio on a shoestring!
Girl, I worked so hard.
Counting every penny to buy a hair cream.
I went everywhere by bus.
In short, I am a regular folk, got it?
Will you say that you were Rog's secretary?
Would I give Rog the spotlight? No way!
Look, we'll think about this topic tomorrow, okay?
-Okay. -You can go.
So the mysterious little boy
that you didn't have the guts to introduce
was my ex-fiancé.
It was Gabriel.
Won't you say anything?
No need, Gabriel told me everything.
Now, Alec...
Have you been together?
Why didn't you tell me?
I was afraid you would get it all wrong.
I'm sorry.
I was getting it wrong before.
Now, I got it right.
-I thought I knew you. -I'm your friend.
-I love you, Carol. -Such a boldface.
This earring.
These clothes!
You only came close to me to be close to Lola.
You're worse than her.
Because unlike you,
she won't hide herself.
Are you okay?
I am.
I'm fine, it's fine.
It was Lola, wasn't it?
I don't want to talk, Benjamin.
Why not?
You are alone.
You're suffering, I know. I feel the same.
I am here.
I'm here, you don't have to be alone.
Neither do I.
I shouldn't...
Trust me.
I came to see your place.
Can I?
How beautiful.
Son, here, look.
Let's put a curtain on this window.
Too much exposure.
Here.
Look what I brought, I embroidered it.
I'm worried about you.
You are not well.
No one is, mom.
Can you imagine the harm you'd do
if you told Carol?
Fortunately, I passed by and heard that talk.
I won't lie to Carol anymore.
-I don't want to deceive anyone. -Would you put us at risk?
If she finds out what we did,
everyone goes to jail.
-You, me, your dad and Sofia! -Tired of doing everything
-that Sofia orders. -No! It's not for Sofia.
It's for Becca.
For your sister.
My daughter.
Never forget that, my son.
Never forget it, we need you...
to do justice.
To do justice.
What's this? Were you beaten up?
That's none of your business.
Look! Are we having a special night?
We are, daughter.
Look!
Anything else?
Ramona, set another place at the table.
Doctor Átila loves a thriller.
I'm so curious to know who the mystery guest is.
Fuck you, Lola.
-What is this? -What is it?
-What? -I won't be
-getting insulted! -Sit down!
-What is going on? -What is this?
Good night.
What are you doing here?
Your dad texted me and told me to come.
Guys, he's the mystery guest!
-What's up? -You are my family,
the people I love most in this world.
Even with the disappointments.
But I haven't been honest with you or with myself.
What is it?
It's a new cancer
-What is it? -that we don't know?
-What? -Shut up.
-What the hell is this? -Lola, you are a monster.
-What? -You are the real disease...
that I helped to transmit by doing your bidding.
Out of fear, out of shame.
I knew that this thug was blackmailing you.
I may have little time left to live,
but I want to die on my terms.
It doesn't matter what others think anymore.
Wait, dad, wait. I don't understand a damn thing.
What is Marcelo doing in our house?
Marcelo will start visiting our house more often.
If he still wants me.
Marcelo...
is the man I love.
-What? -The man I want by my side.
That's it, loved ones.
I'm gay.
Sorry.
