[ominous music playing]
Inez. Inez, you okay?
[Marina sighs]
This is totally ill*gal,
what they're doing.
He's been going to school,
for them to take him away from me
-just because of one day--
-No, they're not allowed to do that.
You're his mother, correct?
Things are settled
for the moment, so now… [sighs]
I'll get you home and, uh,
I'll explain the rest on the way there.
Give me the keys, I can drive.
No.
Marina and I need to speak.
-Yeah, but we also need to talk.
-Bernardo.
No.
Just let it go, like I did.
The letters? Quickly.
[tense music playing]
[car engine humming]
Got him on your own?
Come on, buddy. We're home.
See ya.
[car door shuts]
Thank you.
That boy is everything to Silas.
And me too.
Without him,
I don't know.
Something that I don't…
really understand yet is,
the process that'll happen
in juvenile court.
Yeah, so, in the morning, first thing,
I'm going to file a motion to…
dismiss the minor at risk case
they started.
Thank you.
[ominous music playing]
Are those why you returned to the case?
I never quit the case.
You know that, right?
So will you,
or are we refiling
the habeas corpus for Jonathan?
Tomorrow, we can discuss that.
[music turns somber]
Most people would've done the same
in her position.
Who is the real victim?
Can we convict someone
for trying to escape a conviction?
She fought back.
She survived and she is here
asking for recognition that the crime
she committed was her only shield.
[moans]
We believe that justice has to be done
since it allows us to feel less helpless.
But the law…
[moans]
The law protects reasonable doubt.
[moans] The accused woman
needed protection from the man she k*lled,
who had abused her so callously,
constantly, and continuously.
Cruelly. Chronically. Cyclically.
That alliteration gambit I'm pretty sure
is a trademark move of your dad's.
[moans]
[moans]
Wanna bet he'll use the alliteration trick
in his speech?
Well, after 40 years
it's gotta be in his last speech.
-An old dog can't learn new tricks.
-You believe in the supposed retirement?
-I'm not having it. There's no way.
-Really?
The old man just wants
a big party in his honor. [laughs]
He'll come back before the month is over.
No. The great Antônio Franco
doesn't know how to lose.
[Murilo] Oh, yeah? Just him?
-Huh?
-No, I… I like to win, that's all.
-That's different, you know.
-Is it?
Tell me then, what more do you wanna win?
The Lantos.
Wow! The prize
your old man didn't get. Huh?
-Oh, take it easy, Freud.
-[groans]
So?
-What?
-Your turn.
-For what?
-What is it you wanna win?
Oh God, I don't know.
-You know I don't dwell on that stuff.
-Oh, go on.
-Mm-mm.
-Just say it.
It's not all that difficult to do.
-[moans]
-Do I have to say it? Hm?
Really?
Come on. Come on, I don't wanna be late.
I don't wanna give Dad
a reason to complain.
[applause]
Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you very much.
After working all these years in the law,
The legacy I want to leave
is not my voice,
or my victories,
or even the various missteps I've made.
What I hope to leave behind are my values.
Vigilance so democracy lives on.
Let us all remain vigilant because,
not one of us here
is immune to the villainy…
Or the vanity.
Of power.
[Antônio] The vigor
with which I fought the good fight
in defense of virtue and honesty.
And vulnerability.
My shame for not doing enough
to advance the cause of justice
in this world.
It's because of this that I made sure
I always pushed my daughter
to become an attorney.
It's my way of living on.
Thank you all. Appreciate it.
Thank you very much.
[jazz piano music playing faintly]
[women laughing]
Looks like Medina didn't show.
He's got zero patience for this stuff.
Yeah, Dani's the same way.
Gotta say they have a point though.
But I mean, It was beautiful
to hear him speak, you know?
The guy is a legend.
Wait, you're partners
with his daughter, right?
[Ana] Mm-hm.
[woman] So, does she take after her dad?
Better than him.
-[laughs]
-That's gotta be awful.
But she's more…
What do I wanna say?
She's really ruthless,
and has a kind of ethical flexibility.
[woman] Yeah, she was born
to be a lawyer, babe.
[Ana laughs] Exactly.
She's talented, alright.
But God forbid
if I was the daughter of a living legend.
[woman] I'd love a connection like that.
Think about it. Imagine spending
your whole career
trying to be seen
as independent of your parent,
and if you accomplish it, you're nothing
but a good old nepotism baby, right?
[woman] That's a good point.
[laughs]
It's just like they say, babe.
"When two flowers
are put in a pot together, [sucks teeth]
one's bound to get all the sun."
-Done?
-[woman] Let's go.
[scoffs]
"Two flowers…" f*ck you.
It was a done deal.
Judge Celso is a friend of mine.
But he got taken off the case.
They went and claimed
that I tried to sway him. With what?
Whiskey, a watch, nothing. [scoffs]
Now there's this new judge,
the guy's totally full of himself.
You know there's nothing
I can do for you, Ênio.
All prosecutions
go through Brazil's Public Office.
And they don't pay as well, right?
My only client these days
is Brazilian democracy.
-Hey, sweetie. Mm.
-Mm.
Your timing is perfect. Inez, my daughter.
-Ah, nice to meet you. Ênio.
-Pleasure.
Listen, if criminal charges
are already filed,
you need to have faith in the courts.
I'm sorry, Congressman.
I understand. Uh, I should go.
Who's he?
Ênio Magalhães. He owns a lot of land.
Jaú practically belongs to him.
A politician?
Huh. Only in his spare time.
His full-time job
is being a son of a b*tch.
In fairness, sons of b*tches
keep us employed don't they Dad?
This guy needs to be locked up, honey.
Now he's accusing some woman
of deliberately setting fire to his land.
He wanted to hire me
to advise on the case.
What was he thinking?
Too many American movies,
I think. [laughs]
And that's not all.
This guy thinks that he's above the law.
He very well might be.
-He has immunity as a legislator.
-Mm.
A few thousand acres in his pocket.
Did I hear there's an opening
for best lawyer in Brazil?
-Ah.
-Inez.
-[laughs]
-She's a contender.
Hi, Bernardo.
Hey.
Say a nice hello please, Bê.
Hey!
Bernardo's hit that stage
where just living is embarrassing, y'know?
-Mm.
-[Pedro] Yeah, but it'll pass.
I'm also preparing my heir. Right?
Yeah.
How's Murilo?
He's well.
Over there, doing what he is best at.
[Pedro] Preparing the field for you.
[soft jazz piano music continues]
I was watching you, you know.
Mm?
What did you see?
I saw you, on display.
Mm.
It felt like
I was seeing you for the first time.
Oh?
So, would you hit that?
-[whispers] Hot guy alert.
-Mm.
But I don't know. Mm.
Make a pitch to me. Yeah, gimme a pitch.
Hm.
My name's Murilo.
I don't really like my name, but…
but I'm used to it.
I love…
-sushi.
-Mm.
But what I love the most
is the pork sandwich from Guanabara.
They have this hot sauce
you can't get anywhere else in the world.
-Oh my god. I'm always saying that too!
-Right? Yeah!
Huh?
Parties, they're basically
a professional obligation for me.
My favorite part is
going home at the end.
I don't like wearing ties,
but what can you do?
I'm a lawyer, you know?
I just opened up a law firm recently,
yeah, with undeniably the most…
-Hm.
-…ambitious attorney in the city.
In the country.
-You must know her.
-Mm. Well, I've heard of her.
Uh-huh.
I think I like money
because growing up, I was poor,
and we always want
what we don't have as kids.
I'm planning on a beach house.
I'll get one. I need one.
Because there's no place in the world
where I feel any better
or more alive than by the sea.
And I wanna have a kid. Or two.
[Inez moans]
-Oh, that pitch was stupendous.
-Oh, yeah?
Take me home. [moans]
Should we get going? C'mon, I'm starving.
-Let's go. I'll buy you a pork sandwich.
-You've sold me.
[elevator dings]
Hold up, guys.
You're not leaving, are you?
Appellate Judge Melo is back there
and we might wanna say hello to him.
Go for it. Go on,
you're better at this than me.
-Mm.
-I'll be in the lobby.
Okay.
It'll be quick.
[sighs]
-Congressman.
-Oh.
We meet again.
Your father's
gonna be in your hair all day.
I need to apologize because I…
I overheard your conversation.
Is there someone
you're taking legal action against?
Um, an ex-worker, yes.
She set fire to a farm I own. For revenge.
A ranch hand
and an overseer died in the fire.
-Our youngest is in the hospital.
-Oh, I'm so sorry.
All I want is justice.
But, sadly, the case being assigned
to the Public Prosecutor
means it's down to chance.
Well,
I've been told the opposite by your dad.
-There's nothing that we can do--
-There's always something.
There's something.
You could bring on someone
with the expertise
to assist the prosecution.
[ominous music playing]
[grunts]
Let's go.
Eliane! [groans, cries]
Baby.
[Elaine] They're g*dd*mn cowards.
[man groans]
[Elaine] Shh. Hang in there, it's okay.
[hushes]
I know that b*stard is behind all this.
[inhales sharply] f*cking cowards.
I know they were sent by Ênio.
Did you tell them anything?
[ominous music playing]
What'd you say, Aldo?
He said this woman set fire to his farm,
that she wanted revenge.
Mm. And so now,
the congressman wants revenge on her.
Mm. Double premeditated homicide
with aggravated cruelty.
-Mm.
-And attempted homicide.
-Say it, Murilo.
-Well, this is their first conflict?
There'd been a dispute
with the local union.
Um, Ênio was planning
to expand his property, since,
he intends to raise cattle, so he wanted
to buy the land from the squatters.
And did she wanna sell?
-No. But, I mean--
-Makes sense.
Inez.
Inez.
She didn't wanna sell the land
and he was pressuring her.
Attempted land grab, that explains it.
No. No, it doesn't.
He was a victim.
His son has third-degree burns,
he's in the hospital.
[Murilo] No, I know. I know.
You get what I'm saying.
It appears he wants
this woman to be put in jail,
to grab up her land.
Don't dawdle okay?
I wanna get there early.
So your brother finally
can get a birth certificate.
Isn't Dad coming?
[ominous music playing]
[Ulisses coos]
Dad has been… [sighs]
He needs us right now.
But,
why've they done all this to Dad?
Is it 'cause of the fire?
-They think he's the one who did it.
-Well, he didn't.
This is a trap Mr. Ênio is setting
'cause he wants to take our land.
But we're not going, no matter what.
This is our house.
Yours, and your little brother's.
Have some more.
Who is going
to get a name today, huh, baby?
Who is it? João Pedro?
-No, let's call him something else.
-Mm.
It's in memory of your uncle.
[Marina] But it'll just keep reminding us
that they k*lled him.
Ulisses.
Huh?
How about Ulisses?
It's beautiful.
And it has two S's, like mine.
What does it mean?
It's the name of a sea-faring man.
One who's returning home after w*r.
Mm. You and the sea
still have your special bond.
-Where did you get that name?
-A book I read.
I know you're going to succeed, Larissa.
You'll have a brilliant career,
make a fortune,
and take me with you to the sea.
And Ulisses.
Dad'll come too.
Naming you Larissa was your dad's idea.
But even then I knew.
You should have been Marina.
Then you'd have the sea
in your name. [chuckles]
[dog barking]
[tense music playing]
Mr. Ênio's g*ons are here.
Take your brother and hide.
[vehicle approaching]
[chicken clucks]
-Move out the way.
-Wait! You can't come in!
-Get outta here.
-Keep them quiet.
Should've thought twice before
you burned those guys.
-We didn't have anything to do with it!
-After João Pedro died you wanted payback.
You know I would never
do something like that!
That's not what your husband said.
Of course, you tortured him
into saying whatever you wanted.
There's nothing here!
So what are these kerosene cans?
Coincidence? Speak the f*ck up!
-You'll have to explain it at the station.
-Let me go!
[car engine starts]
Mom! Please!
So, you're saying that Ênio
is involved in murdering a union leader,
who's the brother of the ex-employee
whose land he'd like to take over?
Murilo, I've explained it
about a thousand times already.
-Pay attention.
-Oh, I'm paying attention.
You, on the other hand…
It's a frame-up.
This guy, he k*lled João Pedro
in some kind of ambush.
Now he's getting rid of Eliane.
There's no proof
that he played any role in that.
Ah. And what proof is there
that Eliane set the fire?
My job is making sure
that the proof is there.
Inez, it's one thing to believe
that everybody deserves a defense.
Don't they?
It's another to get yourself involved
in accusing a poor woman
and potentially imprisoning her
because it's in the interest
of a politician.
[tense music playing]
Stop with the sabotage, huh?
-Hm?
-You've always done this.
-I've never done that.
-You just keep trying to compete with me.
Almost like…
like I've insulted you by being better.
Woah.
[scoffs]
Okay then.
I'm just gonna keep my mouth shut.
-But it just doesn't add up.
-Agreed!
-Mm-hm.
-We've got a done deal.
Biggest guaranteed fee we'll ever earn.
This is our ticket to politics, Murilo.
That's a dream of mine, you know that.
Mm-hm.
And this will allow us
to finally buy that house on the beach.
And then, I mean, who can say?
Make a good plan,
and in a few years,
we can take a sabbatical,
and try for kids.
[romantic music playing]
So, we'll plan on meeting up again in Jaú.
Okay? But remember that it's better
if you don't appear at the courthouse.
Okay.
Everything will work out.
God willing.
Well. Who knows if we can count on God,
but I'll do my part, I promise.
The woman's still in prison,
so the narrative's in our favor.
-Mm.
-To a jury,
when someone's in prison already,
they've been found guilty.
-This way, please.
-Sure.
[ominous music playing]
[elevator dings]
[Murilo] Nauseous again?
Mm.
Didn't sleep well.
It seems like you haven't been sleeping
this entire month.
-[Inez] Don't be dramatic, Murilo.
-No.
Seriously. Corpses don't ever win cases.
-So I've been thinking…
-Hm?
-If we win the case…
-You said…
If? Look she's human,
displaying human insecurity. Huh?
We stop by the courthouse for a wedding.
Just the two of us,
no fuss, no invitations.
Wait, but aren't you always saying
you think marriage is a lost cause?
Yeah, it'll be our first and only one.
-Mm?
-[laughs]
Mm.
Is that a yes?
-Well, first you have to win the case.
-Mm.
[upbeat music playing]
Right over there. Holding up?
Yes.
We don't have much time, I'm afraid.
Okay.
Eliane, sorry, this'll have to be quick.
-Thank you, ma'am.
-Mom!
[kisses, sighs]
JAÚ REGIONAL POLICE STATION
You're skin and bones, honey.
You been eating?
[somber music playing]
How's your brother?
He's at home with Dad.
Has he still been drinking?
I don't know where he goes
or what he does.
Yesterday, people came to our house
from Ênio. Trying to make Dad sell again.
Ênio's rotten to the core.
He's the b*stard who k*lled João Pedro,
who stole your father's pride.
He can't get the best of me, though.
What do you think of the lawyer?
Is she good?
-She'll get you out?
-She's good.
She said Mr. Ênio hired some big,
high-powered lawyer in São Paulo.
Yeah.
She's called Inez.
Inez something or other.
Let's just hope she's
on the side of justice, right love?
Because justice is on my side.
[somber music continues]
-Wow, I passed out.
-Yeah.
-Are we there yet? Where…
-No. About an hour yet.
[Murilo clears throat]
-We'll get there just in time.
-Yeah. Gonna be a close one.
-[message send tone pings]
-Coffee or Coke?
Both.
CHECK YOUR EXAM RESULTS
[Murilo] Fill it up, please.
-[man] Gasoline, or?
-[Murilo] Gas.
TEST PERFORMED - BETA-HCG
POSITIVE FOR PREGNANCY
[somber music playing]
C'mon.
Bring your brother.
[sighs]
[somber music continues]
JUSTICE
[Inez] Find a parking spot.
I'll meet you inside, okay?
Counselor Inez Franco.
Smoochie smooch?
Mm.
You're such a sap. God!
-Excuse me, Inez Franco.
-I'm sorry, I don't have any cash.
My mom wants you to take this.
-Who's your mother?
-Eliane.
[ominous music playing]
I'm not allowed to accept it.
This might count against your mother.
Please, she's innocent, she--
-This is ill*gal.
-I can read it to you.
-This might hurt her, please be quiet.
-"My mother, Eliane Linhares…"
-Be quiet!
-"…my father, Aldo Linhares are--"
What do you think?
Do you think I'll read it
and feel differently? 'Cause I won't.
The law applies to everyone.
Your mom too.
[tense music playing]
Where is he, what happened?
-[Murilo] Yeah, you're okay.
-[Ulisses crying]
-He's my brother.
-Hi.
She's with him, sir. She's here
because the trial is her mother's.
He's my brother.
[Murilo] Your dad's not doing very well.
Is there some way I can help you out?
[somber music playing]
[music turns tense]
Mr. José Rodrigues de Souza.
Your Honor, I object on the grounds
of perceived bias. Thank you.
Inez.
Keep it.
[tense music playing]
And the gallons of kerosene
that were discovered in the silo?
-For the tractor.
-All eight?
All empty?
Do you know anything about brush cutters?
No.
But I would love to learn.
Explain to me how you began the fire
that night at Santana Ranch.
I wasn't there.
They're only accusing me so they--
They? They?
-Mr. Ênio.
-And what interest would your boss have
-in accusing you--
-Ex-boss now.
He wanted to make us sell our land.
Is that land yours?
Ênio falsified that deed you're holding.
He wanted all the land to himself.
And anyone who wouldn't sell at his price
wouldn't hear the end of it.
His men came by our house constantly.
-To negotiate, right?
-To intimidate us.
His men showed up with shotguns.
m*rder*d João Pedro, my brother.
All to make us frightened.
But it didn't work.
We had decided we'd never sell.
But the court had already ordered you
to get off the land.
The court?
He's a congressman, Ênio.
I know you understand what that means.
Everyone's been bribed.
Witnesses, the chief of police.
-Some of our friends sold out to him.
-So you devised this to get vengeance.
Objection, Your Honor.
No speculation, councillor.
[somber music playing]
[Eliane] Our life.
Our history.
They're destroying all of it.
My brother was m*rder*d.
My husband, he's…
he's a broken shell. [cries]
He can't work anymore.
And our kids…
[cries]
They cut us down
like we were diseased trees
in somebody's pasture.
No more questions, Your Honor.
Counselor Franco has the floor
for questioning.
Eliane, I understand
the suffering you're experiencing.
It's impossible for you to understand.
All the way up there,
I don't have a name.
Not like what you've got.
You think that my life is meaningless.
-But to me, it's everything.
-No, Eliane, I know how you feel.
Sitting before me,
I see someone who's lived in deprivation.
Looking and seeing are different things.
You want me convicted, that's all.
Just another story to tell over dinner.
I DO
Then afterward,
you'll go to sleep in peace
and say that justice was served.
[somber music continues]
Eliane, I think…
I think we had a bad beginning.
The two of us,
we are indeed,
yes, in totally different positions.
But no, I'm not against you.
We're not at odds,
with me saying you're guilty
and you saying you're innocent.
-We are, 'cause I'm innocent.
-What we disagree about
is as simple
as the definition of innocence.
I understand you, Eliane.
[Ulisses cries]
I sincerely do.
Luiz Gama, here, in this very same court,
in the year 1880,
he preached the right to insurrection.
Every sl*ve who murders his owner,
regardless of the case facts or factors,
does so in self-defense.
Now, you are convinced
that you did not commit an injustice.
A crime perhaps, but not an injustice.
On your behalf, your husband confessed.
[Eliane] They forced him
to say what he said.
If you tell the truth today,
this jury of your peers will understand
your motives for doing this.
But they're not going to accept a lie.
[Eliane cries]
Socrates, when he was tried,
preferred an unjust conviction
to the abandonment
of his ideas of justice.
We must hear it in your voice, Eliane.
Don't you want this nightmare to end,
don't you want your family
to be free to live?
Have faith
in our system of justice, Eliane.
Lay it all out there.
You set the fire for the sake
of your family's right to justice.
Didn't you?
[tense music playing]
Yes I did.
f*ck!
[Eliane crying]
Please, mister.
In this state? There's just no way.
I'm not able to let him back in
if he's like that you know.
But my dad's unwell, sir.
It was a police officer like you
who did this to him.
Doesn't he deserve to sit
and hear what happens to my mom?
I'll bring out a coffee, but I need
to be standing next to you in there.
As a precaution.
[ominous music playing]
[Inez] The defendant says
her land was taken from her.
She suffered injustices so vicious
she was forced to retaliate.
She stood up there pleading with us.
With tears streaming, telling us
how she and her family felt helpless.
[Ulisses crying]
I confess,
I've also felt compassion.
[somber music playing]
I thought…
that in her situation,
I could've done the same maybe,
who could say?
But suppose I did, what would I be then?
I'd be a criminal.
Because it's criminal
to occupy someone's land
if the law has determined it's not yours.
To burn a person's land is criminal,
across all contexts,
no matter the provocation or reason.
And it's criminal
to m*rder someone callously,
clandestinely, and cruelly.
Have you thought
about what it would feel like?
To burn alive? Can you imagine?
Today, if we are to do justice,
we need to convict the defendant.
[Ulisses crying]
Not for vengeance.
But because we must believe
in the unwavering sanctity of the law,
which is the pact
that truly bonds our society.
Of course, if you decide
that the defendant's motives were just,
and you acquit her…
[Ulisses continues crying]
…then she is going to walk free.
[tense music playing]
In which case, you will be condemned
by your own conscience.
-[grunts]
-Whoa!
-Wait, wait! Put it down, man!
-[screams]
[people screaming]
Inez!
[officer] No! No, Don't!
Wait! Man don't do that, just think…
[Murilo] Just try to stay calm! Here!
Here, put this on the wound.
Keep pressure on it. You're gonna be okay.
Just stay… Call an ambulance!
Get an ambulance! Hurry up!
Are you Murilo?
-Huh?
-[sighs]
You can take a deep breath.
She'll be okay.
Could've been a lot worse.
The b*llet didn't hit any major arteries,
although she did lose
part of her left lung.
She'll stay in the ICU
for the next couple days.
When it's safe,
we'll transfer her home to São Paulo.
Okay. I… I'm a bit confused. Uh…
-This is a good report, isn't it?
-Yes.
The bad news is that we've determined
the pregnancy was lost, sadly.
I'm very sorry.
[tense music playing]
[baby crying]
[Ulisses crying]
[Marina hushing]
[car engine sounds]
[Ulisses continues crying]
[knocks on door]
Anybody in?
I think this is enough
for the next few days.
And your mother
was brought back to the station.
She'll have to stay there
until the proceedings resume on her trial.
If you want me to…
[somber music playing]
I'll find some way for you to talk to her.
[Antônio] Don't worry, honey.
It was two months ago. The frenzy's over.
There won't be any more articles
about this. Okay?
[machines beeping]
-You're staying here tonight?
-Mm-hm.
Well, I'll come back tomorrow
and we'll take her home together.
Great.
Bye now.
Did you find the notebook sheet?
No.
And I'm not gonna.
You shouldn't be thinking about a note,
or about that girl.
Murilo, if you won't help me with this,
you know I'll just do it without you
once I get out.
-I will find that girl, I mean it.
-[Murilo] Inez.
Murilo, I destroyed their family.
And for what? Because I…
because I'm determined
to be better than my dad?
-What I've done, it's--
-What about what they did?
It was fair. It was fair.
Please don't think like that anymore,
promise me, Inez.
Hm? You were the victim here.
Murilo, when I woke up and saw
what had happened to me, I agreed.
But
now, I feel…
How do you feel?
Just shame.
Utter shame, total shame
for behaving like that.
Only shame. I feel… I feel…
I don't know.
I can't tell what it feels like.
Then let me say what I said before.
You were the victim, you were,
and you almost didn't make it.
But I did make it.
I did make it.
And I won't stop until…
'til the guilty person has paid.
Okay, I'm with you.
I am the guilty person, Murilo. I am.
I am the guilty one.
Never repeat that to anyone.
Understand, Larissa? You can't.
Do you hear me?
If this woman survives,
she's going to hurt us.
And she won't stop
until she's finished what she started.
You need to take your brother
and disappear.
-No, Mom. What about the land?
-No, there's no land. We have nothing.
Is there still cash in the can?
-Some, but I don't--
-Can't you understand what I've told you?
Sweetheart.
Look.
Your brother only has you.
And you only have him.
If they're able to find you,
the court is gonna try and separate you.
Is that what you want?
No.
[somber music playing]
Then you've got to do
what I'm telling you. Hm?
Take everything that's left.
Get on a bus to São Paulo.
You won't get to go to the ocean yet.
I'll find a way to reach your Aunt Marli.
[inhales sharply] She'll take you in.
Leave everything else behind.
Even your name.
You see, Uli?
We're all the way in São Paulo.
And now there can't be
any more crying, deal?
Not for me or you.
[somber music continues]
Inez.
That son of a b*tch Ênio
got the case pushed through
and they convicted Eliane.
Go back to bed. You're still recuperating.
No, I'm fine.
They'll have sent her
to prison by now, so we need--
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Come here. Listen to me. Do you trust me?
Then forget this entire thing. Hm?
You cannot fix the world
in the condition you're in.
Yeah?
Murilo, I'm going to make sure
we don't waste time
rehashing this over and over again.
I am not giving up.
I will fix this mistake.
What mistake? What?
I knew that woman was innocent.
I forced her confession
but she's innocent.
Stop. Please! Please, stop.
Please, I can't!
Please, I'm begging now. F… for me.
[somber music playing]
Huh? Just look, look at how much you lost.
Look how much we lost.
Our baby was lost.
I'll go to the penitentiary.
I'm going to propose to Eliane
that I will be her defense attorney.
I will see that Eliane is released.
If you can't stand by me on this, Murilo,
then I'm willing to pay that price.
No.
I know that for what I did,
there's no excuse.
Your shame and guilt are pointless now.
What you've done, you've done.
I wanna make it right.
I made a mistake,
I got lost, I was… I was blind.
Let me just… [clears throat]
Please, I know that I can fix it.
Let me get you out of here.
Let me reunite you with your family.
What family?
[somber music playing]
My husband shot himself.
-You have a daughter.
-Let my family be.
Or I'll find a way to finish
what Aldo started, I swear to God.
I've come to see Aldo not k*lling you
as a blessing now.
You'll have a more miserable life
than even mine.
[music turns tense]
He's sleeping.
You haven't touched your meal.
When I met you, you weren't any bigger
than your little brother.
How is it that you know my mom?
I owe your mom so much.
Your mom saved me after my divorce.
Took me in
when I couldn't buy my own food.
She always took care of me.p
And today,
God is giving me a chance
to return the favor.
I can help with chores and things.
This house is your home too.
You are safe now.
Look, you know your brother
needs to be given a name.
He can't just stay unregistered.
He does have a name. Ulisses.
Ulisses?
-I chose it.
-Different, isn't it?
Your mother told me you like to study.
Is that right?
I'm going to talk with my boss.
She's called Elizabeth
and she was formerly a teacher,
so I'm thinking she can give us some help.
What if she asks
about how we know one another?
You pretend. Just pretend you're my niece.
-We'll say Ulisses is--
-He's my son.
A criminal complaint
against the congressman.
[tense music playing]
Were you also shot in the head, by chance?
-I owe it to Eliane.
-She didn't agree!
That's why I submitted the complaint.
If he goes down, then there's cause
to review her conviction.
Inez, look. Congressmen have immunity
against legal action like this.
You'd be done before you start.
Not to mention, you assisted him
in committing the very crime
-of which you're accusing him now.
-Do you think I don't know that?
-If I need to pay--
-You'll drag our firm down with you.
The daily scandalous headlines
weren't enough?
Let it go, Pedro.
If you'd put off filing for a while…
You know, we're still
getting established as a firm.
While we're getting established,
a woman who's innocent
-is locked away from her kids.
-Look, my vote is no.
And I'm in agreement.
No.
Murilo.
[tense music continues]
I'm moving ahead.
If you're not on board,
then I'll find somewhere else.
So, uh…
We've been having conversations.
"We," as in you three?
After considering, I'd be willing
to buy your share in the firm.
This is what you all want?
I'll buy it as well.
-Hey. These are the last boxes?
-Yes, sir.
Thanks. Appreciate it.
[sighs]
This isn't how I wanted things to end.
I didn't want things to end.
[somber music playing]
Oh sh**t, they left the rug behind.
No. No, I told them it stays here.
But the first time I had money
to spare I bought that.
Murilo, when we moved in here,
you wanted to trash it.
No, I adore this rug, come on.
-I'm always using it to work on.
-Me too when you're not around.
You want it that much, take it.
See? There, you're doing it again.
I disagree about one little thing,
and the world's ending. See?
It wasn't one little
thing we disagreed about.
You asked for me to stay quiet
while you destroyed yourself
with all this atonement stuff.
All I wanted was you on my side.
And you can't understand
that's where I am.
If you're on my side,
then help me find where the kids are.
I won't help you self-destruct, Inez.
-Well, that's it.
-Yeah. Yeah, it is.
I know.
[Murilo sighs]
Once I resolve this,
we'll be together again.
[ominous music playing]
And I will resolve it.
Then I'll be seeing you soon.
[somber piano music playing]
[elevator dings]
FRANCO VILLAR & ASSOCIATES
[indistinct chatter]
[woman] You could also make it
quite a bit thicker, you see what I mean?
Yeah, that's true.
Oh, here. Murilo,
you should meet the architect I hired.
This is Bianca,
she'll be redesigning the office for us.
-Hi, nice to meet you.
-Hi. You too.
Well, sorry to run off on you.
I'm in a rush, but we'll talk. Yeah?
Okay. The lobby here is pretty much
acceptable the way it is now.
Small changes, I'm fine with that, sure.
But let's head into the offices.
Wow! Gorgeous!
I told you that Elizabeth could help.
You've got a new life.
We can leave it all in the past now.
Except for what they did to my mother.
I'll never forget that.
How about you choose
what your new name will be?
Marina.
[tense music playing]
Larissa.
That sheet of paper, what was on it?
