My granddaughter.
I believe you have my verve.
I just need you to pass the key test.
No. No.
I can't.
I can't remember my past,
but she raised me.
Daphne's my mother.
What a disappointment!
Mama!
Police! Freeze!
Mama!
Mama!
Cut!
Are you okay?
Lauro,
I don't know about "Mama."
It's a bit of a stretch.
I don't know if Isabel would call
Daphne "Mama."
Isabel will say whatever she wants.
But I'm insistent.
Bravo, Carla!
You nailed it!
Daphne's end was sad,
but the scene was beautiful.
Congratulations.
Come on, you loved k*lling me.
I followed the script.
No.
That little grin wasn't on the script.
You were fabulous, Carlinha.
The Daphne you created for me
is a fabulous one.
Thanks, Laurinho!
So you're Destiny's Rebound's big villain?
Villain?
I wouldn't use that term.
It's too...
Strong.
Annihilating.
Very telenovela.
The three of you have been
working together this whole time?
I knew there was something behind
all that arrogance, Roberto.
Now I should congratulate
both of you on your performance.
Thanks, João Marcelo.
Thanks, João Marcelo.
It's really a lot of criminals
for such a small family.
I bet Chiara is also a part of this mob.
Chiara's nothing but an incapable hustler.
Incapable!
Then who k*lled Maristela?
-Excellent question.
-Witty.
Surgical.
A bit of history.
I was paying my employee
when Maristela, nosy as usual,
overheard the conversation
and ended up seeing something
she shouldn't.
She didn't leave me any other choice.
My employee knew
she was going to the country
and managed to catch her on the road.
But he didn't see that she was
with Geraldo and the baby.
No!
And I almost lost you,
my dear granddaughter.
Just because she was too nosy!
And now...
this nosy officer comes to interfere
in my family and in my company's business.
You came close.
You prick.
It was you all along. How stupid of me.
What about Inácio who pretended
to be Geraldo to investigate Chiara?
So...
Geraldo was Inácio?
You missed that one?
It was obvious.
But I recognize you were pretty cunning
to hire Isadora
to seduce João Marcelo
and take him away from here.
Along with that parasitic mother of his.
I want our family to be only you
and me, my granddaughter.
We don't need interferences.
Of course, we'll always have
our faithful allies,
Tobias and Isadora.
Something isn't clear.
Is the van in the accident
the same one that's been snatching
bodies for years?
Yes, Roberto. Why don't you explain
the bodies and this bathtub?
Ultralux's secret formula is produced
with an extract of human bone marrow
that has very high levels
of hydrolyzed collagen.
And it's nature's best antioxidant.
Beauty has its price.
That's not news.
But I don't expect idiots to understand.
Only you, Isabel,
are able to understand
the greatness of our legacy.
You're better than me, more cynical.
You see life as a telenovela
that works around you,
where people are nothing but characters.
I believe you have my verve.
I just need you to pass the key test.
This is a trial by fire
You will say if
Untie her.
What is the key test?
k*ll the chief
and everything will be yours.
Do I have to?
The show's almost over,
and she was barely featured.
But she disturbs a lot.
And she knows my business secret.
But you wanted to tell!
And what will happen to him?
It's up to you
to solve this problem.
I want him...
Alive. I want him alive.
Then prove you deserve
everything I'm offering you.
And k*ll the chief officer.
Look, I know I look crazy,
but I have some boundaries, okay?
I can't k*ll someone,
not even if it's make-believe.
And to be honest,
inheriting a moisturizer factory
is not exactly what I consider
to be an advantage.
What a disappointment, Isabel.
No, no, no! No, no!
You will die.
You will die.
You will die.
What is that?
Cícero!
For the love of God!
-It's the extra!
-Bruna!
Take it off.
You won't run away.
Roberto, you won't run away.
Roberto.
Isabel is like a ninja.
He who laughs last, laughs best.
Where did that woman
in the sheets come from?
My God, Marta.
What can I do with a situation like this?
We wait for the last episode.
DRAMATURGY
-Thanks a lot.
-Thanks.
It's a typical interview, basic questions.
Let's go, Carlos?
From telenovela protagonist
to wronged actress,
from fine French fiancée to a hustler.
Grazi, the audience wants to know,
what's your next stop?
Hollywood.
Get close, we have an exclusive.
Walter sold the rights
for a remake in English
and he requested me.
As Isadora?
As Isabel.
Prepare the camera.
-Lucrécia!
-Carla, darling, talk to us.
-Sure.
-Look who's here too!
It's the real destiny's rebound, right?
How was working together after so long?
We k*lled each other.
Yes, we did.
Really?
-On screen!
-On screen!
Bye.
Lauro, please talk to us a bit.
Everybody in this show
got an exceptional twist.
I assure you there was no twist.
But don't steal that option from me.
I'm an actor, Lauro.
So gorgeous.
The audience at home is anxious to know,
what can we expect of Isabel's departure?
Coming from a helicopter? Is she abducted?
Does she go back in time?
Give us a spoiler!
I have no clue.
Wonderful. And the drama here,
it ends today too?
Lucrécia, there's no drama out here.
Reality or fantasy?
Is Destiny's Rebound the greatest
psychedelic trip we've lived or not?
Without a doubt.
And I've seen it all.
Wow! Thanks, honey.
I'm getting married!
I'm a heiress! I deserved it!
Focus on the girl!
I missed you, Brazil!
I'm glad to see all of you again!
Don't be jealous.
Now I'm the protagonist
and you're just some extras.
I'm kidding.
-Welcome, Isabel!
-Thank you.
You could have ironed
those napkins at least.
You're funny today, aren't you?
I don't know which one is the most
unrecognizable one, Isabel or Marta.
Do you really think Isabel
is coming out from there?
Oh, she is.
It's not the money.
This portal is beautiful.
I'm surprised by your good mood.
Trancoso, honey.
-A month?
-A year. A sabbatical year.
I can't picture you
not bossing someone for a whole year.
-Elba Ramalho lives there, chill.
-See?
I'd love to boss Elba around.
Poor Elba.
-You could have ironed it.
-Don't touch my lace.
Excuse me. Are you the groom?
-Are you nervous?
-No.
I usually get nervous at the premiere,
not when the telenovela ends.
When the show aired,
you've been together for a while, right?
-No.
-No?
We were never together.
We hooked up once, a while ago.
She never remembered me.
But now I feel she's starting
to fall in love.
-You feel it?
-I see she loves that guy.
Felipe, she loves the guy from the show.
Jorge, the guy is from the show...
Isabel, who loves the guy,
she's from real life.
And I'm the guy in real life. Get it?
Cheers.
What do you think?
No!
Do you like it?
Good luck, man.
Thank you.
Thanks.
Good evening.
Thank you all for being here.
All of us, writers,
dream of doing something disruptive.
Thirty years ago,
I managed to create something original
when I wrote my first telenovela.
I was there!
Since then, I've been making many works
I'm proud of, but I must confess
I hadn't had that feeling again
of really creating something new.
With Destiny's Rebound,
I could experience all of that again
in a crooked, crazy way,
without any planning, and nearly failing.
But I could live all that again.
It was the craziest experience of my life
as a person and as a writer.
I couldn't have lived this alone,
so I'd like to thank each one of you
that was beside me
in this crazy adventure.
I'd even like to thank Isabel,
who nearly k*lled me,
but who brought me the extraordinary.
I don't know if I would survive
another telenovela like this one.
But I must confess
I had the time of my life.
Thank you.
DESTINY'S REBOUND
It's starting, guys!
So, he died?
What now? What's left?
I don't know what is left,
but what is left of him
will be good enough to make
many little bottles.
Mr. Roberto was so against waste,
there's no doubt
this would be his last wish.
Excuse me.
What about the ghost?
What ghost?
As a police officer trained to deal
with any kind of situation,
I get the chills just thinking of it.
It's the scariest thing I've ever seen.
I never thought Lauro,
who thinks supernatural telenovelas
are the cheesiest thing on earth,
would get to this point.
Now that this mystery is over,
it's time to reveal another secret.
What kind of lousy joke is this?
Can you give me that box?
Geraldo.
Geraldo.
Geraldo!
Are you listening?
No, I'm not, I'm not Geraldo.
I'm Inácio.
I found out you were Geraldo's mistress.
We were young.
And you hated Maristela to death.
That stupid girl?
Their deaths were never properly solved.
I suspected you were involved.
When I started searching
I received threats.
Threats? Is that my style?
Now I know you didn't threaten me,
my father did.
But I didn't know then.
I asked Romeu to help me,
I faked my disappearance
and came back as Geraldo,
counting on Isabel's support.
So, all of you knew?
And I made a fool of myself, is that it?
It's better to be a fool
than a m*rder*r.
How would you react
if I confronted you directly?
I was afraid
I was sleeping with a criminal.
Always passionate.
But never a m*rder*r.
Inácio!
Inácio!
I think you owe me an answer.
I think I deserve
a more romantic proposal.
Do you want me to kneel?
I thought that wasn't your thing.
It's not.
But I think the audience deserves it.
-The audience?
-Yes.
All right then.
Okay.
For the audience.
Isabel.
Will you marry me?
Yes.
Wonderful!
This is the last episode.
Is there a way out for us?
A happy ending.
I would be happy if you were real.
If your love was real.
If you were no longer a character,
but a person.
Is there love
after the telenovela's ending?
Oh, João!
We won't live happily ever after, my love.
I will marry you.
But you will disappear.
Excuse me!
It was beautiful! I nearly cried.
I learned, I can even do love scenes now.
But no one's watching.
I'm practicing.
Wearing your wedding dress
and going to church won't be a problem.
No. Not at all.
Lauro must be laughing,
he always said I was a hidden romantic.
Everyone in Brazil
will see you coming out of the closet!
I'm an occasional romantic.
Just so I can leave.
WE ARE BACK
-Do you want it? Then take it!
-I want it.
-Marry me.
-Of course...
not.
I love our evil couple.
So evil.
Why don't we go fool some other losers?
My bad girl!
This is the first day
of the rest of our lives.
Maybe the only one.
But definitely the happiest.
WE ARE PRESENTING
Hold this for me.
Let's go over there. Wait!
Guys, let's make some room.
Clear the way, please.
Yes, clear the way.
Please, guys.
I can't keep saying...
Help me. Yes, that way.
And you, come here.
-You look amazing.
-Thanks.
You...
You...
What's happening?
It's the commercial break.
What is that?
It's the reason
for everything in this world.
Why are they all still and not us?
Me, because I don't belong here. You?
I don't know.
It's the first time you're not still
during the break.
Maybe...
Maybe you're starting
to not be a character
and becoming a real person.
Okay, and what happens
after the commercial break?
The show goes back to where it stopped.
Then we get married,
we kiss,
the words "The End" appear,
the show's over,
and I go back to reality.
And I'll come with you.
I don't know.
Didn't you say
I was starting to become a real person
instead of a character?
So?
Your love made me see life
the way it isn't,
but how it can be.
I want to come.
I want you to come too.
I love you, Isabel.
I love you.
Me too.
Me too what?
I love you too.
You said, "Isabel, I love you."
So I answered.
Did I?
-When?
-Just now.
Did you forget? During the break.
The break?
You forgot.
Isabel?
Do you take João Marcelo as your husband?
No.
No.
No! No!
-No!
-Isabel?
You're not ready yet.
If I say yes, the wedding will take place,
the show ends,
I'll leave, you'll stay,
and we'll never see each other again.
Life isn't a telenovela, I don't get it.
You'll get it.
We only need more commercial breaks.
Then I'll stay here,
and together we'll find a way
so you can come with me to the real world.
How we can do it?
Trust me.
I love you.
I love you too.
Let's get out of here. Come!
What's going on?
Where's the "The End"?
Lauro.
Where's the end? There's no end?
Look.
You're geniuses! Marketing wizards!
Thanks, Lucrécia.
I'm so happy to have been
in this telenovela.
It's not over.
It's good it's over, right?
Right?
It has to be over,
I have a job far away, in English.
What's going on?
Isabel ended the end.
Metaphorically, poetically?
Lauro's shows always end with a wedding.
If there wasn't a "Yes,"
and if no one caught the bouquet,
it means it's not over.
That's up to the writer to decide.
Lauro. What now?
The show goes on?
Yes or no?
-Lauro?
-Laurinho?
-Lauro
-Guys, take it easy.
-Lauro?
-Laurinho?
Lauro, come on.
I'm here.
Igor, bring him a bucket of ice!
Lauro, are you okay?
Lauro?
