01x01 - Roberta e Marcella

Post by bunniefuu »

Are you sure?

What's the worst thing
that can happen?

I'm tired already.

What's up, man?

We've already paid
the bribe this week.

I'm not a cop.
I just want to talk.

If you want to buy something,
go to Jamelão's store.

I don't want to buy anything.

Look at that.

Calm down.

Check it out.
She looks like you.

She's identical!

Who is that?

This is Sofia.

She has a birthmark on her arm.

-You see that?
-Yes.

What do you want?

Do you have one like this?

What do I have to do with it?

What's the big deal?

-Let me see.
-I won't show you.

Just show me your arm.

Are you crazy?
I don't have a birthmark.

There's nothing here! Nothing!

I'll get you!

Drop it!

EPISODE: ROBERTA AND MARCELLA

Calm down, stay still.

It hurts.

-Edith, stop.
-Calm down.

Raul?

Raul Fagnani?

Yes. And you are...?

Sorry. I'm Augusto.

I need your help.

My daughter...

She is everything to me.
If I lose her, I'm finished.

-Marcella...
-Calm down. Breathe.

Breathe. Tell me what happened.

My daughter and my ex-wife
disappeared.

Their house is empty
and their cell phones are off.

I see. And how long has it been?

About four hours.

Did you call the police?

It's alright.

-Come with me.
-They told me you're the best.

Help me find my daughter.

Come with me.

How old is she?

She's nine years old.

Did you go to her school?

Yes.

Apparently my ex, Roberta,
picked her up earlier.

Right. And...

By car or on foot?

By car.

She kept the truck
in the divorce.

Waldir, write down
the license plate and the model,

the first step
is to find the car.

The car must be close.
There's always some trail.

Do they have any relatives
who can provide information?

No. Just an aunt who's now dead.

Me and Marcella
are her only family.

-Does the truck have a tracker?
-Yes. Of course.

Tell Tai the company name
and tracker code.

Does your daughter
have any birthmarks?

-Scars, tattoo?
-No.

I will need
a recent photo of her.

The first 24 hours
are the most important.

If you remember something,
even if it seems irrelevant,

call Raul.

Thank you, Raul.

Tai. Locate their car.

Getting old sucks.

My mother drove faster than you.

And her car was a Del Rey.

Did she?

You guys are adorable.

Raul, pay attention. She took
the exit next to Raposo.

Right in front of you.

Looking for a pickup truck.
Near the road.

You are close.
The car stopped at a farm.

There. There. Stop. It's there.

The key is in there.

Why would anyone
leave a car like this?

I know I wouldn't.

Someone cornered the car,
kidnapped them both,

and left the mess behind.

-What is that, Raul?
-Trick or treat.

There's no dent in this car.

Let's go.
We can't draw attention.

Our client wants discretion.

Let's go. You drive the truck.

-What about the dog?
-What about him?

Do I leave the dog here?

g*dd*mn it.

Come with me.

Calm down. Calm down.
Waldir will take care of you.

Damn, Waldir!

-Here, Raul.
-Great.

Is everything there?

Almost.

Here. Here.

Here, there you go.

-How cute!
-I'm starving!

It's dried apple, put it back.

Gross.

NUMBER OF MISSING PEOPLE
RISE IN SAO PAULO

MISSING

ONE PERSON DISAPPEARS
EVERY TWO MINUTES IN BRAZIL

Hey!

Listen.

Roberta picked up
Marcella from school.

They left in a hurry.

We found the car in this area.

Did you find any other
information about Roberta?

She doesn't post photos,
she isn't on social media.

-What kind of person is that?
-A shy person.

Or maybe she has
something to hide.

Waldir, search
the hospitals in the area.

And call the morgue.

Damn... You. Come here.

You stay here.

You're not leaving.
You stay here.

Raul. The girl is here.

-What girl?
-The journalist.

-Edith...
-No, Raul.

The agency needs advertising.

It's no use being the best
if we can't say we're the best.

Hi.

I am Maria Júlia Buarque.
From the National Gazette.

Sorry, I'm working on a case.

Can I go with you?

I can't write about
whereabouts investigation

if I don't know how it works.

"Missing person" investigation,
not "whereabouts".

-Missing person investigation.
-Yes. I've gotta go.

I'm learning new things already!

Do you prefer to stay here?

Go to Marcella's school,
see if you can find something.

Ten bucks?

It's for the bus ticket.
Keep the change.

Damn it.

Hi.

-Where's Augusto?
-Back there.

Augusto?

Hi. What's up?

We found the car.

What about my daughter?
And Roberta?

No.

Damn!

Damn, Raul!

Did Roberta have any enemies?

I don't know.

What if she's hurt?

Calm down. Calm down.

If you hired Raul,
it's because you know he's good.

Calm down.

I need to go to her house.
Do you have the keys?

No.

What about our deal?

That's it.

Thank you very much.

I trust you.

Right.

SEPARATED COUPLE
AUGUSTO - ROBERTA - MARCELLA

Never tell a client
that we will find a person.

He needed support.

What if I don't find
his daughter?

What if something
happened to them already?

What if it's too late?

I'm sorry.

I was just trying to help.

That repair shop...

It isn't a regular repair shop,
is it?

th*gs can be fathers too.

Can you imagine how it feels
when a loved one disappears?

Gone without a trace?

What do you look for
in a missing person's house?

Clues.

Are you looking
for something specific?

Alright. Let me tell you.

There was a dog in the truck.

Right.

But there's no dog food
or toys in this house.

What does that mean?

Raul!

Did you see any ashtrays
around the house?

The house smells
like cigarettes.

But nobody smokes here.

Looks like a man did it.

My grandma used to throw her
cigarette butt into the toilet.

Did your grandmother
also pee on the toilet lid?

Only men do that.

And this was a man
who knew Roberta intimately.

Roberta...

She must have some boyfriend
or an affair.

I'm right. Right?

Admit it. I'm right.

Maybe.

Do you think he is the one
who took them?

Do you know what I think?

You should ask less questions
and focus on your article.

Hello, Raul.

Roberta has a friend
who picks up Marcella sometimes

Her name is Daniele.

I'm sending her address.
She lives in Perus

Are you and Roberta close?

We're single moms.
We understand each other.

When was the last time
you saw them both?

Wednesday.

Roberta asked me to pick up
Marcella from school.

We think Roberta
was with someone. A man.

A boyfriend, maybe.

I never met him.
I don't even know his name.

Judging by her behavior,
he's not a nice guy.

She always does this
when she meets bad men.

May I know who hired you?

Augusto, her ex-husband.

Do you know Augusto?

No, I don't.

Sorry, but I'm very busy, so...

-Sure.
-Thank you.

Thanks.

Is he always moody like that?

Moody? I think he likes you.

Found it!

-What?
-Raul, come here!

Here, Raul.
That's him. I'm sure.

Zoom in on the tattoo.

Hello.

What's up, Husky Duck?
How's work?

We're in crisis.

People are throwing less trash
on the street.

I'm checking that situation
about your girl.

Hey.

That is our secret.

Here.

Thanks, boss!

This is a good one.

It's the last time
I give you these.

Stop smoking that trash.

Come here.

What does that tattoo mean?

The "1533"?

15th letter of the alphabet: P.
Then repeat the third.

"PCC".

I have known him for years, pal.

He was arrested
at the same time as me.

-Waldir.
-He is called

Fábio Tavares, the famous Fabão.

What are we doing here?

You're here
to observe and absorb.

SOFIA FAGNANI
MOTIVE

KIDNAPPING

Missing your old office, Raul?

COLLEGE DEGREE - RAUL FAGNANI

The office is better now.

CERTIFICATE - MARCO DAMASCENO

And those bruises? Work or fun?

My work is fun, Dama.

Tell me what you want.
I know you didn't miss me.

I came to bring you a gift.

Scotch.

Fábio Tavares.
I need the full criminal record.

It's not that simple.

Dama, it's just a record.

He kidnapped a 9-year-old girl.

Any other information about him?

Wow.

His criminal record
is a piece of work.

A member of the PCC g*ng.
Many criminal offenses in youth.

The Maria da Penha Law,

for beating his girlfriend.

What about his address?

He lives in the Copan building.
Apartment 322.

-Got you!
-Let me go!

Raul!

Help me!

-Hey!
-Stop!

What the hell happened?

I have nothing to do
with what happened in Pari.

What are you talking about?

Aren't you cops?

Let's go.

Don't you dare.

Don't you dare.

How long have you been
dating Roberta?

Are you here because of her?

I really like her.

Where were you yesterday
and this morning?

I was...

-Working on a construction.
-Give me your phone.

Give me the phone, come on.

Show me your boss's number.

And pray that he answers
my call.

Tai, call this number

and check if Fabão was with him
at the moment of the kidnapping.

What kidnapping?

Who kidnapped them? Who?

We've had our fights,
like every other couple.

But I swear
I don't know where she is.

I haven't seen her
since the day before yesterday.

I swear. I swear.

If I don't find
this child alive,

you're screwed.

You're screwed.

I would never hurt that girl!

Raul, that's enough.

That is not
what your criminal record says.

I like Marcella.

We get along.

Was it Daniele who hired you?

It was her ex, that b*stard,

Alberto?

Augusto.

That's the name of the b*stard.

You should investigate him,
not me.

Hey, look.

Your alibi has been confirmed.

But wise up.

Now get lost.

I told you I had nothing
to do with it!

I should follow him?

I don't believe that guy.

g*dd*mn it.

Raul?

New people at the agency?

No. She's a journalist.

It's been three years.

It seems longer.

You look great.

You haven't changed anything.

Look, I'm in the middle
of an investigation...

See?

You haven't changed.

Don't worry.

I just need you
to solve this for me.

Calm down! Stop! Leave it!

Put it back!

Cut it off!

Let it go!

My friendship with Raul
goes way back.

How did it start?

I'm not part of your article,
got it, sweetie?

I just want
to understand him better.

He's not very helpful, right?

He doesn't care
if people like him or not.

I think you understood
him enough.

Just a second.

-You wanted to see me?
-Yes.

Did he kidnap my daughter?

I'm not sure yet.
He and Roberta...

What? Is Roberta...?

My daughter never told me
about this.

What a b*stard!

If he kidnapped my daughter,
I'll k*ll him.

Who's this woman?

A friend of Roberta's.
Don't you know her?

It seems not even
Roberta knows her.

-Raul?
-Just a second.

Look what I found.

She bought something
in this drugstore

one day before disappearing.

The drugstore is right
in front of this hospital.

-So what?
-I spoke with the hospital.

Domestic violence.

Did Fabão hit Roberta?

You're doing great today, Tai.

That man over there
can't hear any of this.

-Got it?
-Got it.

What now, Raul?

Now, let's rest.

How?
What if Fabão finds Roberta?

That's enough for today.

-Alright.
-Goodbye.

-Bye.
-Bye. Thank you.

Are you serious?

I can't review the case with her
asking a thousand questions.

FLIGHT SAO PAULO - ASUNCIÓN

SÃO PAULO'S EXPANDED CENTER

What?

Isn't your story over?

Is the investigation over?

Raul. It's Waldir.

Man...

Fabão is very chill.

He went to a cousin's house,
spent all night there.

He woke up early
and came to work.

He's working now.

-I was hoping that was it.
-Yeah.

What do I do now?
I wanna go home, take a shower.

You can go, Waldir.
You spent the night working.

Can you tell me
what you are looking for?

We were looking
in the wrong place.

What happened?

g*dd*mn it.

And he hired you.

He was not worried
about their disappearance.

He was worried
because they ran away from him.

Where is that b*stard?

-Raul?
-Where's Augusto?

He left about an hour ago.

They are not missing.
They are hiding.

Daniele!

And now he knows
about her because of us!

Help!

-Help!
-Calm down!

Daniele! Are you okay?

Come with me.

Come.

Sit here. Come on.

Who did this to you? Calm down.

Who did this? Augusto?

He rushed in
and started to hit me.

He said I knew where they were.

-Calm down.
-And did you?

They just wanted to leave.

Roberta found out that Fabão
beat his ex-girlfriend

and was afraid to go
through the same thing.

She has a cousin in Portugal.

She packed her bags.
But Augusto found out.

He found them, hit her
and tried to kidnap them both.

-I just helped them hide.
-It's alright.

-You did the right thing.
-He's crazy! Do something!

Tai, could you track him down?

No. Augusto turned off the GPS.

But I'll track his cell phone.

I need you to talk to him.
I'll connect you both.

Hello? Hi, Raul!

Glad you called, I'm desperate!

Augusto, I'm raising
some hypotheses.

Could you come to the agency
to see some things?

Hello? Raul?
I can't understand you.

I'm losing the signal.

Raul, the signal is very weak..

Hello? Hello?

It's alright, sweetie,
it's going to be okay.

It's just a friend of mine
who helped me find you.

Everything will be fine.

It's not alright! Let us go!
Augusto, stop!

Tai, did you track him?

Life isn't like the movies.
The phone has GPS.

The location appears
as soon as you connect it

They are driving
to the Marginal.

You can go now. I'm monitoring.

Fine. Let's go!

Stop the car, Augusto!
Let us go!

What do you mean, Roberta?

I spent a lot of money
to find you.

Stop it, Augusto.
I won't come back to you.

You cannot separate
a father from a daughter.

-After everything I've done...
-She's not your daughter!

She's not your daughter!

She's not your daughter!

Mom, I'm feeling sick.

Are you going to back up here?
Are you crazy?

It's a one-way street!

Hold on.

-I'm going to puke.
-Keep your head up.

-Calm down, baby.
-Don't touch her!

-Shut up!
-b*stard!

Baby, everything will be fine.

Stay calm, baby.

-Calm down.
-Everything will be fine.

Don't worry.

STOP AT THE RED SIGN

Let us go! She's feeling sick!

She's feeling sick,
can't you see?

-Let us go.
-I'll pull over.

If you try anything,
if you try to fool me,

I will k*ll you, Roberta.

There! There!

Augusto!

Damn!

-Mom!
-Let her go, Augusto!

Let me go! Mother! Mother!

Augusto!

-Let me go!
-Let her go, Augusto!

-Augusto!
-Calm down, baby.

-Stop! Stop!
-Mom! Mom!

Go away. Go.

-Calm down.
-Stop right there.

-It's over, Augusto.
-What do you want, Raul?

You've done your job,
you found her, now get lost!

Think about your daughter.

Look.

Drop your g*n and let's talk.

You haven't done anything
against her yet.

I would never do anything
against Marcella!

Then nothing will happen to you.

Put the g*n down. Listen to me.

Put it down and let's talk...

The hero has arrived!

What do you want, idiot?

You stole my wife,
what else do you want?

To be my daughter's father?

Fabão, stop.
Let me solve this thing.

He will not lay a finger
on my wife.

Come on, you b*stard! k*ll me!

k*ll me and you will
never see them again.

You will be in jail forever.

It's all her fault!

After all I've done for you!

You run away with the thing
I love the most?

Stop! Our marriage is over.
Accept it.

Shut up!
I don't want to hear you!

You can't take
my daughter away from me.

-Augusto, stop.
-Stay away, Raul!

-Augusto, calm down!
-Stay away!

-Please...
-Or you'll pay for this.

-Father, please, stop!
-Calm down, baby!

Let him go!

Let him go!

Daughter...

I'm sorry, baby.
Forgive your father.

You shouldn't
be credited for this arrest.

You're too old to play the hero.

Your friend will be in jail
for a while.

Unlicensed weapon.
Kidnapping attempt.

Go get some rest, Raul.
I'll take it from here.

Marco Damasceno. Police chief.

Maria Júlia. Journalist.

-What about him?
-Leave him alone.

Enough arrests for today.

He's becoming a better person.

Don't try to undermine my work.

Get some rest, Raul.

Are you really
going to Portugal?

I need a fresh start.

For me and her.

I will miss you.

Thank you for everything.

Thank you.

DIVORCE PAPERS

Is there more
where that came from?

There's something
I did not understand.

The dog.

If it didn't belong to Marcella,
Roberta or Augusto...

Why was it in the car?

He climbed into the truck
to search for food.

And ended up being
adopted by Tai.

Sometimes, even the underdogs
have a good day.

Take a look.

-What is this?
-That's all I know about you.

I spoke to the people
at your newspaper, the Gazette.

They confirmed that there is
an employee named Maria Júlia.

She is covering a congress,
in Asia.

Do you know how many people
I've helped find?

How many people depend on me?

Did you really think
you'd sneak into my work,

my team, my agency

and I would not investigate you?

Tell me.

Who are you?
