01x09 - o amor da minha vida

[bunniefuu]

[Victor] You talked about the
adventures you were having

with everyone you hooked up with
over the course of the year,

but you never said
one word about me.

PREVIOUSLY

- Is this a dream?
- [Bia] Yes.

[audience applauds]

I'm writing this story, only
now in the form of a film.

My only condition is that
I want to direct the film.

Let me explain something to you.

This production? I'm the
one who's paying for it.

[Gabriel] I can teach you
how to play if you want.

Can you talk? When
I get home. XO

[Luiza] Why? Where's Bia?

- So it's your ex who gets her hands dirty?
- [scoffs]

I think that's
really unfair, okay?

- Ta-da! This one is special.
- Ooh, delicious!

I feel so bad for not getting
here sooner. I'm sorry.

It's all right.
You were working.

- [Victor] I don't believe this.
- [Bia] Honey!

Come on, we weren't
doing anything!

Are you so dumb that you didn't
see what her intentions were?

You're making a film that basically says
that Marcelo is the love of your life.

I just want to keep
watching the episode.

The film has wrapped.

Vi?

- Vi? Are you okay?
- [knocks on door]

Yeah. I just think it would be
better if I stayed in here for a bit.

episode 9 the love of my life

[groans]

[sighs]

Hi.

I just wanted to tell you that
I was wrong yesterday, okay?

And you're right
to be pissed at me.

I... I wasn't being myself.

I didn't do anything, I
would never do that to you,

but I... I screwed
up, I let you down.

But I love you.

Okay? I didn't want
anything to happen.

I'm calling to say I'm sorry,
and I hope you will forgive me.

[grunts]

[door unlocks, opens]

Hi.

Hi.

You won't believe it. The burger
shop was packed today at lunchtime.

Just from normal foot traffic.

I think they thought
the prices were fair.

Word of mouth is starting
to work, who knows.

Nice.

That's cool.

Nice.

[sighs]

Listen.

It wasn't about sex, yesterday,
okay? That didn't even cross my mind.

I... I was just
lonely. I missed you.

But it's okay, I'll get
used to missing you.

I-I want to see you go super f*cking far.
I want to see you in Hollywood, you know?

And, to make that happen, you're not
always going to be able to text me back.

And... And that's okay, I'll
get used to this void I feel

- when you can't give me enough attention.
- You don't... You don't have...

You don't need to
explain yourself so much.

We're human, we make mistakes…

I made mistakes yesterday too.

[sniffles] I...

I cheated on you with the lead from
my film after I left here yesterday.

[sighs]

[crying]

I am... [sniffles]

I am so sorry.

[sniffles]

I don't...

I don't like... I
don't like who I was.

I'm not that person.

I don't want to be that person.

It won't happen again. [cries]

- Say something, please.
- What do you want me to say?

Anything. Anything.

Fight with me, yell
at me, swear at me.

But please, please
forgive me after.

Did you guys have sex?

[sighs]

- Why did you do this?
- [cries]

[crying] sh*t.

I don't know, haven't
you ever... [sighs]

Haven't you ever felt so-so shitty...
so shitty that it feels like

the only way to make things better
is to make everything worse?

[sighing]

Victor…

What-What the f*ck
are you doing?

Victor, for God's sake,
where are you going, Victor?

This is your house!

It's our house!

No, Victor…

f*ck, I'm... I'm your
best friend, man.

I'm... I'm your person.

You have to... You have to forgive me.
You have to give me another chance.

If only for our friendship.

I don't want to forgive you!

- This, right here, is over.
- No.

I'm going to my mom's.

- You leave too, okay? Pack up your stuff…
- No.

- …and I'll come back when you're far away.
- No, no.

- Let me by, please.
- Listen to me! f*ck!

Luiza cheated on you all the
time. You wanted to forgive her.

- Let me by.
- f*ck, w-w-well, Júlia dumped you.

A-And Paula treated you like sh*t,
dude. Giselle could hook up with anyone.

She f*cked a soccer player, a
country singer. For f*ck's sake.

- That's different.
- How?

You were the part of my
life that I loved the most.

You were my safe
space, my partner.

If everything crumbled down
around me, you were by my side.

[sobs]

You didn't betray me
by f*cking another guy.

You destroyed the belief I had

that our relationship was the
only magical thing I believed in.

f*ck, but…

that's so much responsibility to
put on someone, you know, Victor?

[cries] I know.

But I'm... Victor, I'm here.

I messed up once.

f*ck, you won't
forgive me? It's me.

Victor.

It's me.

[crying] I'm...

I don't believe this.

Victor, don't do this.

What an idiot!
[sobbing continues]

[Bia] This is me now.

Causing the person I love the
most the same pain I felt.

The same pain that left me destroyed,
broken into a million pieces.

Making him feel
everything I felt.

For real.

g*dd*mn it.

[Gabriel] I was gonna break up with her,
but I needed to wait until I was in…

[Bia] After three weeks of basically
not being able to get out of bed,

I couldn't go on like that. I had
to resume my life, finish my film.

- [Gabriel] I need you.
- I never want to talk to you again.

[Bia] Fifty-seven.

I sent 57 text messages to
Victor that he never read.

Never responded to.

When I counted them and realized the
irony of the number, I stopped trying.

Fausto I really wanted
to show you my film…

Is Helena actually sick or does
she just not want to talk to me?

It's not that she's mad at you, she
just thinks you were kind of stupid.

And the two things that Helena hates
most are stupidity and infidelity.

How is he?

He'll be okay.

The burger shop is always full,

and I think it's helped take
his mind off it a bit, you know?

Take care of Victor for me.

I invited him to
karaoke with us tonight.

We'll have fun, okay?

[singing off-key] ♪ I tried
to make it worthwhile ♪

♪ I brushed off the issues ♪

♪ It would have been enough
But it wasn't for you ♪

♪ It lasted a little, tell
me why It took me so long ♪

♪ I'll do you a favor… ♪

Yeah, I don't really
think he's having fun.

- I tried.
- [singing continues]

PILLOWS - LIVING ROOM

[Bia] This is me now.

Finally moving into
a bigger apartment.

Trying to move on.

I've never seen you in
such a depressed state.

Yeah.

- [panting, moaning]
- [kissing]

Your lighters.

You left them here.
Do you want them back?

[whispers] I quit smoking.

Did you find a new religion?

People change.

I don't change.

[chuckles] You try really
hard to not change.

But I have no doubt you're
a different person now.

- Uh-uh. I'm the same.
- Mm-hmm.

[whispers] Really?

You didn't even ask me
to sleep here tonight.

Because I know
you won't want to.

In the past, you
always tried, at least.

- Sleep here.
- No.

[chuckles] See?

You don't want me to sleep here.

You're just sad and
wanted to f*ck me.

♪ Sometimes, in
the dead of night ♪

♪ I imagine us both ♪

[sighs] You're perfect.

[Bia] This is me now.

Busying myself the best I can.

And sometimes hooking up with
Gabriel to distract myself.

Are you sleeping here tonight?

It's a shame, but
I can't tonight.

I have to get up early tomorrow to record
some promotional material for the film.

[sighs] Lucas came up with it.

[whispers] Come here.

This is me now.

When Gabriel kisses me, I remember that
he's the reason Victor broke up with me.

And seconds later, I
remember that's not true.

It's my fault.

And I feel like a piece of sh*t.

Stay.

Please.

You're sad, and so am I.

Let's be sad together.

Or I can create another fake
profile to stalk you on your site.

[grunts]

I quit the site.

[chuckles, sniffles]

How about I make you a burger

and you tell me all about what's
happened with you this past year?

Do you want me to stay?

Be honest this time. Be honest.



[whispers] At least 95% honest.

My mind is on someone else now.

I loved you basically
as much as I did her.

If anyone could pull me
out of this, it's you.

[lighter strikes]

[whispers] It's working.

They all work.

They all work?

You can try them.

Yeah? I can?

ONE YEAR LATER

Marcelo ONE MONTH AGO

hello, yet another message
asking you to talk to me again

Select photo - Select video

GALLERY - pre-screening
invitation

THE LOVE OF MY LIFE
VIEWING: 8:00 P.M. AT CINEX

Hi, I know that we haven't talked
for approximately 487 days,

and you probably don't
even remember that I exist.

And you probably have
a beautiful family now,

with little Portuguese children,

but I wouldn't feel okay
if I didn't invite you.

Fausto 8 MONTHS AGO

really? are we never
ever going to talk again?

♪ Come on I'm on time ♪

♪ Never been late
for the limelight ♪

Hey. [chuckles]

They're here!

I need some photos
of him with Giselle.

- I'll come find you in a bit…
- Of course.

- …then Claudio Lemos. Come on.
- Okay.

- Who is Claudio Lemos?
- I'll be right back.

- Just relax, everything will be fine.
- [chuckles] I hope so. Thank you.

[Lucas] Folks, I am so happy, so
proud of our film, Love of My Life.

But I'm not going to stand
up here rambling by myself.

I want to invite the
team and the cast up here

to present the
film along with me.

[audience applauding, cheering]

I hope this feature film proves

that Giselle and Gabriel are
much more than influencers.

- They are artists.
- [chuckles]

- [audience cheers]
- Whoo!

Please put your hands
together for our two directors

who helped make Gi's
dream a reality.

Bia Martins and Claudio Lemos.

[audience cheering]

That's it, guys. Thank you
so much and enjoy the film.

[spectator coughs]

- I want to talk to you.
- Get your hands off of me.

I'm sorry.

What are you doing?

What is this? Who's that guy?

I wasn't satisfied with some
of the material you recorded.

Nor your editing.

So I called in another more experienced
director to change a few things.

To make the film the
way I imagined it.

But you didn't have the
authority to do that.

Sure I did. Do you need me to send
you a copy of the contract you signed?

Are you... Are you happy?

Are you happy?

Are you satisfied now?

Are you satisfied that you
won this little competition,

the fight over who is
most in charge of my film?

Bia, most of the time, I don't
even remember that you exist.

I wasn't part of
any competition.

I actually think
you are talented.

I respect you. You did a super
great job, you told a good story.

I just called in someone more experienced
to make it better, that's all.

But it's my story.

It's my life.

No. It's mine.

- [gasps]
- I bought it.

[Giselle] Long weekends
are something else.

Well, this is Marcelo.

He's ready to be
grilled by you guys.

This is me now, hoping
my friends will like him.

[Bia] I can't believe
they changed my thoughts

into her talking to the camera.

It's so out of style.

This is me now, divided.

- [panting] Is it just friendship?
- [funky music playing]

Igor's sweaty muscles left me
wet when I woke up this morning.

[sighs]

[music continues]

But Mauricio's touch
lights my skin ablaze.

[Bia] This is the worst
day of my entire life.

[Gabriel] Bia, please.

If you were just gonna cheat on me,
why did you want a relationship?

She's just crazy and jealous
of our happiness, okay?

She's obsessed with me.
She made everything up.

Trust me.

Trust in love.

[romantic music playing]

We are poetry, Bia.

We don't always rhyme.

However…

However, I'm forever
drawn to you.

[Marcelo] Congratulations.

You came from Portugal

Our... Our film.

Of course I came,
I needed to see it.

Congratulations.

Thank you for coming, Marcelo.

[song continues playing]

- It's really packed in here.
- I'll be right back.

Be right back. I have to…

[Gabriel] Bia?

It was Lucas,

he threatened to give my biggest campaign
to another influencer if I told you, okay?

He did the same to Giselle.

There wasn't much we
could do to protect you.

I'm sorry.

I love you.

Let's not throw away this
special bond we've built.

What's special?

Because this here, it's nothing.

I thought you were hot, I wanted
to kiss you on the lips, that's it.

You are extremely disposable.

Bia, it was a pleasure
working with you, okay?

I didn't work with you.

You replaced me.

Huh, is this your first time?

The first time someone
has replaced you?

[scoffs] You're young, huh, Bia?

Let me guess.

You're not from
Rio, or São Paulo.

You grew up wanting to be an
actress, idealizing what art is.

The thing is, you're
already getting old, Bia.

You're already getting old,
you're not so sure anymore.

[inhales sharply]

But you keep searching
for new opportunities,

because, deep down, you still
believe that you're special.

You're not.

And you're going to be
replaced a lot in this life.

Thank you for reducing
me to a stereotype.

[chuckles]

[inhales sharply]

You are not special for
being an artist, Bia.

This is just a job.

A job that has a lot of
parties with open bars.

So let's enjoy it.

What's up?

Are you okay?

Get me out of here.

All right. Come on.

[Bia, on GPS] Speed
trap reported ahead.

- Go slowly, it feels much better.
- [scoffs]

I like hearing your voice. It feels
like you're still with me, you know?

I'm glad you kept the car.

So many good memories.

So many.

Actually, I left
it with my brother,

but I picked it up today
because I was going to see you.

Who knows, I might have to carry an
old sofa, huh? Watch the sun rise.

[chuckles]

Where are we going?

To the airport.

Are you in?

You and me. Just us two.
Leave everyone behind.

Be happy.

What do you think?

- What about that ring you're wearing?
- If you want,

- I'll throw it out the window right now.
- Hmm.

If you ask me to, I'll chuck
it out. Want me to? [chuckles]

You'll never stop
womanizing, will you?

For you, I would.

[scoffs] How many girls
have you said that to?

Honestly? Just you.

But dishonestly… [chuckles]

…I said it to the person
who's wearing the other ring.

Does any part of you still
hate me for not going with you?

No.

And are you still mad at
me for cheating on you?

I don't think so. Not anymore.

And do you actually want
to? Are you being serious?

If you're serious, we'll go to the airport
right now and I'll get on that plane.

I'll go anywhere, Marcelo.

I have nothing left here.

The only thing I have
to hold on to right now

is that... is that this is destiny
saying that we should be together.

That love does exist, you know?

Love like you see in the
movies really exists.

That magic... magic exists.

Life is not f*cking boring.

I'm being serious, Marcelo. I
am... I am being totally serious.

Ball's in your court.

- It's destiny.
- It's destiny.

Let's go!

Let's go.

m*therf*cker!

[siren blares]

[brakes squeal]

[police radio chatter]

- Good evening.
- [Marcelo] How are you?

License and vehicle
registration, please, sir.

Please come with me.

I'm going to have to
do a Breathalyzer test,

but wait for me here, okay?

Don't even think this is
destiny giving up on us.

[Bia] This is me now,

saying goodbye to
Marcelo forever.

But without saying goodbye.

This is me now.

Going to the only
place I have left.

My mom's house in Brasília.

Making her happy by taking me to
the drive-in theater to watch a film

- that won't make me happy at all.
- Mom?

Mine.

Sorry for showing up
without calling first.

Mom?

- [kissing]
- [gasps]

- [screams]
- [gasps, screams]

[grunts] sh*t!

Sorry!

You guys, no, no,
you don't need to.

You really don't need to.
I... I'm already going.

I am so happy to meet you.
I've heard so much about you.

- [sighs]
- Listen, if I had heard about you as well,

uh, we would have avoided a really
unexpected part of our lives, you know?

Okay, well, this...
This is Silvia, Bianca.

Silvia... Silvia is my friend.

And Bianca is my daughter, who I've
already talked about a million times.

Hand me those plates

- so I can give Bianca a slice of cake.
- Sure. Here they are.

- Thanks. Thank you. Sorry, again. Thanks.
- Here, my love.

- Silvia, do you want a little slice?
- Yes, thank you.

Well, I-I-I'm going to
give you two some time,

because I have to go run some errands,
so I can welcome you better, honey.

- I'll be right back.
- No, Mom...

- Mom, you don't need to.
- No, I need to run out real quick.

I'll be right back.
I'll be right back.

I just wanted to say that
I think it's beautiful,

that I'm totally supportive.

That my reaction was... I think
I was just really surprised.

- It's all right.
- Okay.

It's just that I didn't... I didn't
know that my mom had this side to her.

I never thought my mom
had more than one side.

If I had walked in on my
mom doing anything else...

any other activity other than... than
watchi... I don't know, watching TV,

I think that I would
have been surprised.

I like your mother a lot.

Thank you. Thank you.

It's very... Is it very strange to
thank you for... for loving my mom?

Very.

Very strange, but nothing
about today has been normal.

[chuckles] That's true.

But tell me. Tell... Tell me
everything. I want to know everything.

Everything about
this relationship.

Oh, your mother…

She's excellent in bed.

No. No, no, no.

- No.
- Oh.

Almost everything.

[laughs]

[chuckles]

[laughs]

[Bia] This is me now.

The love of my life.

With my first apartment
that isn't falling apart.

Paying the bills with my
own money from my own job.

It's not film,

but advertising pays well.

They don't make movies about
paying the bills on time,

but nothing makes
me more excited now.

[Victor] This is me now.

The protagonist of my own life.

Following the legacies left by both
my mother and my father in the shop.

Hey.

Just in my own random way.

Péricles hasn't
written any songs

about getting an offer to open a franchise
of his restaurant in another state.

I just know that this
makes me feel love.

For myself.

- Yeah!
