01x04 - Devolve Minha Vida

[bunniefuu]

I wonder if they'll send me
back, but I love this world.

I hate this f*cking world!

Previously...

This necklace is the
only thing I recognize.

You know I'm hemorrhaging here. Tell
me what you use when you menstruate.

So, if I convince the
priest, will I be uncanceled?

Is this boy really worth it?

- What did you say?
- Girl talk.

I would like to
end our marriage.

That's it, Paz. Enough.
You're going back to work.

Did you know what was here
before just going ahead

and buying all of this?

You lied to me,
Luíza. You're fired.

So from now on, you're
my manager, Tiago.

I'm in!

The feast, dear ladies,
has its setting.

But, Mr. Maurício accepted
us like his own family.

And, so gets to
monitor all our money.

- I'm a writer, did you know that?
- Your story is already a trending topic.

My time has come. I
don't feel prepared.

You're still playing with dolls, why
on earth would you think about this?

Hurry up, Pedro. Ask
Anika to chill with you.

TIME SWITCH

Good morning, prehistoric era.

Unbelievable.

This is how you intend to break your
fast? Won't this disagree with you?

All she wants is attention.

My godchild and daughter-in-law
has been rather inclined

toward strange
behavior as of late.

No?

I feel something
else is strange.

So, Otávia and me are
heiresses to a fortune

and I have no money in my
pocket. Strange, right?

Darling, we won't speak of such
things. It's quite uncultured.

Especially at the table.

That's right. You don't have to
worry. You have all the cash.

Cecília, I feel your comments are
always so very spirited, and...

Nothing spirited
about it, Pedro.

All women are able to make
their money and manage it.

If you knew anything
about business, you'd know

the plentiful times
are over indeed.

The harbor is no way near as lucrative
as during your father's time.

Or you could say, it's
just bad management.

'Cause if I had that harbor, I'd
clear profits you've never seen.

But why are you suddenly
so interested in it?

Are you lacking for
anything in this house?

And, uh, as for your old house,

all aspects of the
renovations are accounted for.

We'll only be using
the best materials.

All in rosewood.

All shipped from the capital.
And so, it'll take a bit long.

Excuse me.

You're not eating?
- I will, my love. Later.

Ready?

Otávia, wanna hit the beach?

Hey, you look good.

Are you that excited about
rebranding your image?

About the rebranding...

We need to suggest this
to my many Paz Lovers.

Oh, girl! If you're interested in
getting your account blocked again,

go right ahead.

I can get an intense orgasm everyday.
Maybe several. Am I dreaming?

Yes. You will get
several, at least.

Oh, heavens!

Please give me some of
these for Valéria, will you?

Paz never shared.

I have no objections, but
who... Who is Valéria?

Luli,

please play my favorite
video of Valéria Astral.

This diva is marvelous.

She's Valéria Astral.

A fortune teller, tarot master,

yeah, she's clairvoyant
and also a feminist lover.

She looks familiar.

Girlfriend...

Oh, hey, it's you?

Oui! I really want to
dress up again soon.

The costume is stunning.

Not really what I would
call a costume, dear.

This is my art. My persona.

I'm in drag.

I think I'll dress up just for
you. Exclusive and private.

Do you promise?

I would love that, Tiago.
Sincerely as your biggest fan.

You're better than Paz, sweetie.

- But she dresses
better, baby, believe it.

Who was that guy at
breakfast this morning?

Which one?

That weird guy who picked
up Maurício at the café.

Raul?
- Yeah, the guy with the blonde girl.

Wait, you must remember him, no?
He's our godfather's right-hand.

Otávia, I know we already talked
about my wedding night, right?

I said I was hammered,
which gave me amnesia.

Which shows why drinking is not for
women. They just embarrass themselves.

Oh sweetie, I have
much to teach you.

But I wanna hear
more about Raul.

Okay. He's a brute
who smells awful.

He's Lua's dad and
married to Bertha.

He owns that bodega
where Anika works.

Bertha's the crazy lady who keeps
shouting, and the child's name is Lua?

How could you forget that,
Cecília? Yes, it's Lua.

That girl followed
you everywhere.

Some days, I don't even
remember my name, honey, okay?

And there's even a really serious
event which I can't remember anymore.

The day that papa
and mama were k*lled.

Impossible to forget about that.

The sun hadn't risen
yet. We were sleeping.

I just remember hearing
Nenésia shouting.

Ordering us to get out of the
house because it was on fire.

Papa was supposed to be at the
harbor, just like every other morning.

But on that very day, at that very
moment, he was in his office instead.

Our poor papa.

You know, I'm sorry you've
had to witness everything.

You also. You cried
more than anyone.

And mama?

She actually got rescued.

They say she was incoherent.

Well, she died soon after.

And the only
request she made was

for Nenésia to take care
of us once she was gone.

And that's when Maurício,
the hero that he is,

put the blame on Mom and
brought us to live with him.

Wow... I admit, I'm so
afraid of ending up like her.

Totally crazy. She set
everything on fire.

Bertha, Mama, now you...

I don't know what gets
into these city women

to make them go crazy overnight.

Otávia, I don't
believe for a minute

any story about a woman
going crazy overnight.

It's easy to call a woman crazy when
she says what she's thinking, isn't it?

Even more so if she needs to
shout in order for people to hear

what she has to say.

- Have you ever heard of gaslighting?
- Gas-what?

Well, wanna hit the water?

Wanna hit what?

The water. Are you coming?

Cecília, are you going mad?

Bye!

Come on, it's great!

Come on, twerp!

Otávia! Hurry up!

Otávia, come on!

Yes, Otávia. Yes!

Hello, Paz Lovers.

Click that little bell
activating notifications

so you won't miss any of my live
stream and my very, very special guest.

Also, I'm gonna tell
you something about me

- that is gonna take
your breath away.

Can we talk for a minute?

Alone.

- Driver, let me off here! Thanks.
- What are you doing? How scandalous!

You know we're not getting off here.
It's a long way to the mansion.

- Yeah. We'll be having a quick drink.
- Good heavens, Cecília!

I'd never commit such a mistake
as to go into that pigsty there.

Fine. As you like. Then why don't
you go home and stitch with Mia?

You mean I should go home alone?

Yeah. You know the way, right?

Bye!

Are you recording?

Tyrannosaurus Rex. Brontosaurus?

And what... what
if they make a duo?

I know that I've got you
Because I'll never...

let you down. I'll never...

let you down.

So cute.

This is the most watched
video of 2006, sweetie.

It's only second
to "Baby Shark."

So Paz already... I already
knew the lyrics at that age?

Oh, sweetie, you did everything with
so much more ease than most kids.

You were a darl. I
guess you forgot.

But that's sometimes how
the Internet is, too.

We spend hours producing
content and it just flops.

Then, out of nowhere, this
little thing goes viral.

But obviously, everything
is destined to be.

And if we didn't make sure
to do everything perfectly,

then perhaps, we also
wouldn't have made it,

just like everyone else.

But tell me something, darling,
would you? Are you doing all right?

And is my Peanut still there?

You must hear the truth now.

I'm not really Paz.
My name is Cecília.

- I'm from 1922. I
know it's shocking.

At first, I didn't
believe it either.

And I don't know how
this would be possible,

but all of this is
happening for a reason.

I do feel somehow,
there's a greater purpose.

Oh, honey. My sweet girl.

Yes, your godfather
is up to something.

All I know is this.

When Cecília's parents were k*lled in
the fire, dirty stuff began to happen.

- What's dirty?
- The dirty is bad.

Maurício, his suppliers are being
extorted while workers make nothing.

Wherever he can, he overcharges.

The timing of César and
Estela's death helped him, huh?

Dude, this Maurício fellow
looks like a proper con artist.

You know how deceitful his expression
is if he thinks he's talking to idiots?

- I'll show him an idiot.
- And what's your plan?

Oh, well he'll find out
what the Force really means.

This game isn't over.

Thanks.

Whew!

So you're telling me I've been
working to locate this girl

- and she was upstairs all this time?
- How would I know you meant Lua?

Cecília's basically known
the girl since she was born.

- I must find a way to talk with her.
- Impossible.

She's caused trouble. They
won't let her outside.

I want Paz!

And Bertha's screaming began
when the wedding took place.

Anika, that was the day we
switched bodies. Ceci and I.

And when there's screaming,
something's going on.

Ah!

Don't just do this just
for show, my friend.

You have to treat your ginger root with
the care and attention it deserves.

Then you add flavor. Just
a little bit of spice.

A little heat to tickle
your throat. Got it?

- What are you doing?
- Well, I thought it was bad,

but it's so much worse.

She says her name's
Cecília, she came from 1922,

and that she switched
bodies with someone.

- So, my Paz has gone crazy?
- Is this is one of those cases

where a celebrity is replaced
by a look-alike? A doppelgänger?

Nothing else would explain
why I'm being rejected.

My explanation is
more plausible.

The demon Tiago gave
drugs to my poor sweetie.

Why? Because he
wants my place here.

- You think so?
- Jesus had 12 followers.

One turned out fake.

Bertha!

Bertha! Bertha!

- Psst! What?

- Please don't!
- What's wrong?

Stop it! Are you crazy?
Here in the street?

I need to talk to one of them. One
of them screams when I'm around,

- the other knows my name.
- I already told you, you can't.

But I'm stuck forever
in this museum, Anika!

- Help me.
- If Raul hears about what you're doing,

he will m*rder us so you can't.

Do you or do you not want
your buddy Cecília to return?

I don't think I told you,

but I was fighting with Cecília
the last time I saw her.

g*dd*mn. Can you
believe that damn...

Hey guys, what's all this?

You knew we had this routine
check-up planned for today, my dear.

Yes, my baby? She knows very well that
I do much more than most mamas do.

I'm also an agent who
truly looks after her life.

Hi. Hey, what happened
to that wire transfer?

So, she obviously lies.

She can't hide it, poor
thing. Why am I so sure?

'Cause I know your schedule
for the next two years

and believe me this
was not on there!

This sucks. Our special guest
has just canceled her appearance

on today's live stream?

Whoa. What's wrong, honey?

You know Luíza.

All this worrying about
her daughter's health

makes me think a
lot about my mother.

Paz is truly blessed
to have such a mother.

What more could she need?

Look. It's true. She would do anything,
no matter what, for her daughter.

- Ugh, I hate her.
- Are you okay, Tiago?

Go straight to hell. Wanna take
a look? "When I think about this,

I'm probably not gonna work with
a lesbophobe who was canceled."

- She talks about you, sweetie.
- Not me. Paz.

I will do it alone then.

Not a chance. It's already
announced we're having a guest.

If you drop this what they'll say
is that you're a washed up loser.

- I'll be your
guest if you want!

Come on, Gabi. Please
stop being nosy.

Listen, girl. I'm not gonna say
anything about your last streaming event

because I'm not evil.

I was thinking of another person to
host the live stream as my guest.

Hmm?

Clairvoyant, astrologer,
fortune teller...

No, no, no. Listen here, not even to
meet and greet with Rihanna, okay?

Valéria Astral isn't ready for the public.
Believe me, because she's very private.

So very private.
Private's her main status.

Very well. Then today is the
day we will change that status.

- Listen, this is crazy.
- Focus, Anika.

This is how my team works.
We're gonna get great ideas.

There's just one
problem to resolve.

How could we even get inside
Raul's office unrevealed?

He always has the keys. Always.

I live right here in the back,
and I can't get in there.

Completely impossible.

What's impossible is living
without my skin-care.

Sometimes you're as obstinate
a person as Cecília.

And now, what if Bertha is simply crazy,
and then Lua just an indigo child?

Then I'm f*cked pretty bad. Then
I'm just stuck forever here.

And please, can we just
invent a fridge soon?

Well, I'm not sure what that is.

If only I would've paid attention
to movies, I could help myself here.

But I'm always just on
the cell. So addictive.

Hmm. Yeah. Well, cell phones
aren't the problem here.

The only true addiction
here is cachaça.

- Is what?
- Cachaça.

Let's see.

"CaipiPaz"?

You better ready yourself
for a miracle. My CaipiPaz.

I make it better than my husband
would and he invented it.

Hey Paz Lovers, how's everyone?

Today we'll do a recipe
that you already know,

and that my best friend
Anika will learn.

So, what's it named?

- CaipiPaz?
- CaipiPaz.

We've already cut the lime, now we're
going to muddle it in the glass.

- I'd like you to cut some more limes.
- Um, sure.

And so now we...

- Into slices?
- That's good.

And now we'll just add a little bit of
cachaça. A small amount. Not too much.

- I like it very faint and weak.
- That's weak?

It's weak, Anika. A
small amount of sugar...

- You put lots of sugar.
- It's practically none.

And now we stir.

And we can add a little
slice of lime or two.

The real secret for a CaipiPaz

is to muddle up everything in
the glass with the liquor inside.

Will you please try, Anika?

Hey, why the face?
Is it not good?

- Super delicious.
- Hey, it's delicious, guys.

Who are you talking to?

Is everyone having a good time?

Beautiful.

Hey there, hot stuff, are you
the one playing here tonight?

- Mm-hmm.
- What's your name?

Alice.

Can I teach you a song from
my time that's just mega hype?

- Sure.
- Okay, I think it's in E minor.

Show me.

Hmm.

One, two, three, four.

Ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai

How I like it Your
scent on my blanket

Oh, my, you are gorgeous.

You are beautiful to treat.

Why do you feel insecure?

I just don't feel like doing it.

Performing like this. Can
you even try picturing it?

No.

- I'm taking the makeup off.
- Tiago.

You gave me the confidence to
do everything. To truly be Paz.

You've done something I wouldn't
ever think was possible.

I never would've walked in
those banana-sized heels.

And I wouldn't drink muck like
that for a sponsored post!

You also made me smile for the cameras
regardless of what I felt inside.

It was you giving me the
courage. The courage to do it.

Just trust me.
Everything's all right.

The world must see you as
the marvelous person you are.

But it makes me really nervous.
I'm not ready for this.

We're going on the air. Quick.

There's nothing that my
manager and my best friend...

Four...
- Wouldn't be able to handle.

- Do you hear me?

Three...

Two...

Two and a half...

Go.

Hello, Paz Lovers.

I am truly honored to have the opportunity
to introduce you my extra special guest,

Valéria Astral!

Warm night...

I want your firefly eye blinking
the night That sings this song

I want your sap filling me now

Your serene air at dawn

Astrologist, fortune teller,

tarot master and clairvoyant.

Futuristic...

and feminist lover,
naturally, Valéria Astral.

I'm real blessed, you all,
to be here, Paz Lovers!

Paz Lovers, today I've come here
because I've got to speak the truth,

and Valéria's
helping me do that.

Yes, this girl did
all of her homework.

I studied the stars,
the hot G spot,

which I then cross-referenced
with Paz's star chart.

And it all makes
so much sense now.

On the day she was canceled,

the stars were completely
stacked against Paz.

Ah, the vibes were so dense,
I'm getting chills. Watch this.

So different compared to the
conjunction that came the next day.

That's Pisces, guys...

Aw. It's so cool! Just
please keep to the DMs

when that comes around
to play with Uranus.

Oh, the day after was like a
rebirth, wasn't it, Valéria?

That's right, girlfriend!

You know that the day after,

Paz would be like, incapable...
#lol, of saying any of that sh*t.

And if you don't
believe in the stars...

Then you're wack.

If you really never
look to the stars,

then have faith in
me. I'm a new person.

It would be inconceivable for me to
say those atrocities to Miss Maria

-or anyone, for that
matter. I swear.

No way, dude. That's...
that's bullshit.

How can it be that an age
with such wonderful things,

and delivery of hot fudge, and
amazing little orgasm devices...

- Ahem!

is evolved like this and people
are frozen in time for others?

So many feel the need to consistently
inspect other folks' lives.

Do we really need to do that?

And this culture that
cancels people willy-nilly?

Guys, I want you to listen.

Everyone deserves a second chance,
unless they're born an Aries.

I'm still learning how
to be an influencer.

But I understand that
millions of followers

also come with accountability.

So that's why I've come to tell you all
something about me that's very important.

I'm a l*sbian and
that's the truth.

Futuristic l*sbian.
- What?

I'm just so head over heels for
a woman. Actually, I love her.

What the hell?

You know this is
just a tactic, right?

You know this Paz b*tch is
straighter than my great-aunt Dalva,

who thinks lesbianism is something
you cure with herbal tea.

I will tell you the
whole story in a book.

Know when this book, which is loaded
with bombs, is gonna get published?

Shh! Only the stars can say.

Ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai

How I like it Your
scent on my blanket

But it's so terrible
To only have your kiss

As a memory kept alive
in a lipstick stain

Ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai

How I like it. Your
scent on my blanket...

Ooh! Mr. Raul!

- How's it going, Mr. Raul?
- What trouble is the little miss up to?

Ah, me? Trouble?
Never. Anika, tell him.

So I'm actually working.

I invented a c*ck.
And look, a joyous crowd.

Get down and go home. A decent
lady shouldn't be in here.

- Oh, so what am I then?
- Shut your mouth!

Wait a minute. Don't
speak to us that way.

You know we helped
with your bodega.

Perhaps you wanna try a little?

I made this caipirinha hot
and with a special touch.

It's called a CaipiPaz.

I don't know...

I... I'm like
Bluebeard... so lost.

Redbeard... Redbeard was
the conquering pirate.

And what's in this one?

Mint and passion fruit, sir.

- Yeah, I might have one more... of each?
- Keep 'em coming.

Just so I could be sure
about which one is best.

Great.

My honey would be really proud.

Look, she seems like
a different person.

She looks emotional
and sad, you know.

This b*tch is pinkwashing.
She wants her followers back.

Would she say she's a
l*sbian? It makes no sense.

Her audience would be the
self-righteous basic folks, you know?

The vanilla cis-het
type. It's just strange.

These kids on the internet
would sell their mothers, Maria.

Actually, she'd do best to sell
that mother dragon, am I right?

- She's also worthless.

Ouch.

There's a bunch of
mean comments here.

Even some threats.
That's shitty.

Really?

So you as well, Maria?

The most stone-hearted among us,

- fully taken by
the blogger chick.

One kiss and you
fell in love, huh?

Lime Tahiti? Or pineapple?

There's pineapple?
Or lime Tahiti?

Hmm?

Li... Ta...

Lime Tahiti is better.

Put it on the menu.

Will do, sir. Here, please
will you have another one?

Look you spilled something!
Good for nothing.

You close up here. I'm
going back to the house.

What... uh, what
about your drink?

Going back to the
house! My house!

Sir Raul!

Sir Raul!

- You left Mrs. Bertha and Lua's dinners...
- Go away!

- And now what?
- No idea!

- I forgot this.
- You're not serious?

I just forgot to
prepare for this part.

- I'm going. Quickly, quickly.
- No, no, no, no!

I'll be right back!

Please, one express copy, sir.

Good day to you.

Express. Hello?

Girl, stop replying to bots.

- What?
- Bots. Robots. That's a robot.

So even robots hate my guts?

No. To put it simply,
a few humans hate you.

And they set a bunch of
robots to call you names

and make it seem like
more people hate you.

It wasn't as painful
when Paz was hated.

But now it's me.
I'm in so much pain.

Some are actually
wishing me dead, Tiago.

Girlfriend, stop and
focus on the love.

Look at this one here,
"Thanks for opening up."

"Welcome to the Valley."

"I love you, Paz." See?

Please. I probably would have
watched Titanic twice by now.

Such a tragedy for all
involved, wasn't it?

What the papers are saying

is it was communists that
actually built the iceberg!

Have you any news about the
location of your wife, my son?

I don't know anymore
than you, father.

Last time I saw her
was at breakfast.

And now the chickens
have frozen.

My daughter-in-law is running
loose around the city in the night

and you are preoccupied with
the temperature of the chicken?

The crispy freshness
is just gone.

Otávia, would you
know her whereabouts?

I would say the inferno.

My angel, if you knew her whereabouts,
Otávia, you have to tell me.

Otherwise, you might be headed
for the inferno, my dear.

She and Anika are probably
drunk at the bodega.

And you're just telling
us about this horror now?

- I will go get her.
- No.

That establishment is not for
ladies at night. I will go.

I will go.

Hey.

It's you, Maria.

Well, you know, I'm
a bit old-fashion.

I think that seeing
each other is more fun.

I... I'm not a cell user. I
don't even use social media.

- Crazy, huh?
- I thought it was mandatory.

No.

It's not.

Hmm. Well, I put myself
in your shoes, you know?

To think you just
came out like that

and then you gotta deal with
all these shitty comments.

At the same time, I
don't know about you.

Since everything you've
done is a strategy.

I was being myself.

But I'm guessing in this time,
it's pretty hard to be that.

I feel like believing all of it.

I think the day you
called me those things?

That was a lie.

And the person that is right
here with me is really you.

The girl standing before
you would be precisely

the lovestruck girl you kissed.

Hurry. I'm in a
rush, if you could.

Most of my customers know

- this takes time.
- Many thanks.

What's this? Raul?

Godfather, I'm so
glad you're here!

Poor Raul fainted and I can't
wake him up. I've tried!

Wake up. Wake up.

Are you okay? Raul? What's
the matter with you?

I can smell the alcohol.

Oh, please! Get up at once.

I'm going...
- If you had at least passed out

for a noble reason! Come on!

Get up! Compose yourself
and go home now!

A lady shouldn't be
out or alone this late.

I look alone to you?

Sometimes it's
better to be alone.

And what did Tiago say?

That I can't post this
stuff on Instagram.

I thought influencers never
ate. Just air and sunlight.

- There's people
who can do that?

You actually have a
good sense of humor.

I loved the book you gave me.
I'm gonna need a new one now.

I've read Jane
Austen, Victor Hugo,

Narcisa Amália,
Conceição Evaristo.

Got more ideas?

- What is it?
- It's you.

Who are you really?

You are this influencer who
sells shake of the month Tuesday

and will cuss me out on Wednesday,
so how are you this incredible now?

You think I'm incredible?

Maria, I wanna tell you
something important.

I'm not Paz.

- My name is Cecília. I am from a time...
- I get it.

Paz is just a name you created for
your rich troublemaker persona.

And Cecília is the one who
kissed me the other night.

She's the one who's
in love with me.

And I'm in love with her myself.

Uh...

So, if we're doing
what I'm thinking,

and I'd like to, well,
it's my first time, so...

You mean... You mean
first time with a girl?

If I'm being completely honest,
I've been having some orgasms

- with a machine about
this big and wide.

- It's gold and...
- You're cute.

Hang on. Is the sun rising?

It's opening up.

That's it. It's happening.

What the hell is going
on with this bed?

Quick, say it. "To switch now!"

We've gotta!

- It's not possible.
- That's bullshit!

Here's me in an unfulfilling
horrible marriage,

having to deal with this godmother
you hate and your godfather's a crook!

Give me back my life, Cecília!

Really, Cecília! What a
