Post by bunniefuu »

Come on.

Come on, damn it!

This will end up bad.

Come on, damn it.

I warned you, damn it!

Come on.

You won't get away with it.

Shut up, sl*t!
I won't go back to jail!

EPISODE: PRISCILA

Tell me.

Who are you?

Why did you come here?

You are the investigator,
aren't you?

Why don't you figure it out?

Good evening.

Miss!

We are looking for an agency,
"Perdidos". How is it?

-"Ausentes".
-"Ausentes".

This is the address,
but it's a candy store.

-It's here.
-Miss!

Help us, please.
My daughter has gone missing.

No problem. Take a seat.

-Excuse me.
-Go ahead.

Tell me what happened.

Your partner told us
you are the best in São Paulo.

She said you would find
my granddaughter.

My partner said that?

When did she go missing?

Yesterday, at 6 p.m.

She went to school
and disappeared.

Her friends haven't see her.
Her cellphone is off.

And she always answers it.

Do you get along?

What?

What are you suggesting?

I'm just seeing it
from different angles.

My granddaughter, Priscila,
is 16 years old.

Girls are difficult.

They argue, but it's normal.

And...

You and your daughter
live with your father?

Yes. I promised to my late wife

that I was going
to look after them.

What about the girl's father?

She doesn't have a father.
He died.

Does Priscila have a boyfriend?

No.

Man, let's stop talking.
I'll pay you anything.

I want you to find
my granddaughter!

Relax, I'll do my best
to find your grandchild.

I need to check some details
with my partner.

Give me a minute.

-Why have you come back?
-You can't say no.

You have to accept this case.

They said they would pay
anything.

If you leave me out of it,
they will leave.

You wouldn't let
a 16-year-old go missing.

I won't waste my time with you.

Listen.

Do you want
to play detectives? Fine.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Wake up, Waldir!

Priscila, 16 years old.

She went to school yesterday
and didn't come back.

Her mother called
her friends and family.

Nobody knows anything.
She isn't with anyone.

Morgue, hospitals,
police stations, everything.

Dirty work at this time?

Any problem?

No.

None.

Tai, check her social networks
and her friends ones too.

Boyfriend, groups.

Anything relevant.

They said she didn't have
a boyfriend.

People lie.

They are Priscila's friends.

We've told Celina
everything we know.

Pri has been acting
weird lately.

She's been avoiding us.

I wanted to make a prank to her.

I grabbed her cellphone,
and she got mad

as if I had done
something terrible.

Why did you do that?

She was acting mysterious.

She didn't want to talk about
the guy she was dating.

She was dating a guy?

She talked to some boy.

Who?

I don't know.

At your age, I didn't smoke
in the bathroom.

Shut up, if you will send me
to the principal's office.

I'm here to help your friend.

What's your name?

Nathalia.

Nathalia, don't take long
to tell me what you know

because things can get
more dangerous for her, okay?

Those brats
are not Pri's friends.

They wouldn't understand
what she's going through.

What's she going through?
Tell me.

I'm here to help Priscila.

Priscila was talking
to her father.

Her father? Isn't he dead?

You see, nobody listens to her.

That's what her grandpa says.

She found out he's alive
and wrote to him.

He didn't answer for months.
One day she received a letter.

-Who writes letters nowadays?
-Pri really liked it.

Her mother always
checks on her cellphone.

She wouldn't check on a letter.

-Priscila is with her dad?
-No. Impossible.

-Her dad is in jail.
-He is?

She's tried to visit him,
but she's a minor.

Are you sure the kid said

that Flávio is Priscila's dad?

How do you know his name?

One of the girls said
the guy she was talking to

was called Flávio.

They thought he was
her boyfriend, not her dad.

What does Geraldo do?

He has five gas stations
in São Miguel.

I see.

So it was him.

It was that b*stard.

He's trying to destroy
our family again.

We don't know if it was him.

I know it. I feel it here,
in my guts.

That b*stard took my grandchild.

How did she find out
he was alive?

Celina?

Did you tell her?

Yes, we were arguing.

She accused me
of being a bad mother,

she felt sorry
for him being dead,

and I exploded.

I said that he was so good
that he'd rot in jail.

Sad drawings for a 16-year-old.

We keep underestimating
teenagers' feelings.

I'm so happy
for having the opportunity

to talk to the daughter
I didn't know existed.

Wait, he didn't know
he was her father?

When I found out I was pregnant,

he was in jail,

and my father
wouldn't let me tell him.

Of course not, Celina.

Kid, you are a special girl.

Your mom does not get you.

I'm so glad I can help you.

Of course I don't get her.

She won't talk to me!

But she talks to her dad.

I really want to see you.
Your dad, Flávio.

Dad, this is your fault.

You hate Flávio
and want to control everything.

Why didn't we tell her
the truth?

Because you were
just 20 years old, Celina.

And that b*stard too!

He's in jail for selling drugs

at a party full of teenagers.

When you asked me
to work with you in Defense,

what did I say?

What did I say?

Why did you put me
in communications?

Me, your daughter, why?
To cover up your crimes?

Honey, calm down.

-Melina...
-Don't lie to me.

Who do you sell
those unregistered g*ns to?

It's much more complicated
than it seems.

You are right.

I should have told you
the truth.

But I can't reveal
what's going on yet.

I can't work with you
here, then.

You are just like your mother.

Yes.

I'm just like my mother.

Wait, honey.

What do you want?

You have to understand

everything that happens in here
is not up to me.

There's something big going on.

First, the situation
will get worse,

but then it will be fine.

Things will change.

They will.

I'm with you, dad.

I'm with you. Wherever you are.

Why didn't we tell him
the truth?

He was a first offender.

You used your contacts
to ruin him.

I didn't want that bum
complicating your lives.

Or mine!

Excuse me.

-Tell me, Waldir.
-I'm in Brás morgue.

There's a black girl,
16 years old.

She doesn't have an ID,
but the description matches.

Description?

Can you look at her face
to check if it's her?

No.

Her face is d*sfigured.

Wait.

The report says
she was beaten and strangulated.

Just that.

What do we do now?

Does she have any birth marks?

What do you mean?
What's going on, Raul?

I need that information.

She has a tattoo.

Like mine, on her ankle.

A red rose.

A tattoo of a red rose
on her ankle.

Ankle?

Nothing.

Everything is fine.

Thank God!

POLICE STATION

You must be kidding me.

Who am I
to ask you for a favor, right?

We're friends
not only in good times.

Where are the good times?

Hello, Silvio, how are you?

Fine. I need a visitor's pass

for a prisoner called
Flávio Peixoto.

For today.

Really?

Until when?

Fine, Silvio. Thanks.

He was released
on Mother's Day reprieve.

-Damn! Really?
-Yes.

I'll send you his picture

and the address
of his mom, Ivete.

That's all I have in his file.

-Go.
-Thanks, Dama.

This place is very sad.

It is.

If his mom told us the truth,
he has to be here.

Pay attention.

Look.

There.

-It's him.
-Hello.

-Yeah, it's him.
-Hey.

Hey, wait.

Stop!

Damn it.

Hey! Hey!

Wait. Damn!

Stop.

Stop!

Where is she?

Where's Priscila?

If Celina
weren't Geraldo's daughter,

I wouldn't have been in jail
for so long.

He asked the judge
to leave me in there.

Why did you run?

Man, I was reprieved,
walking through "Crackland".

What do you think?

Why are you here?

I know some guys

that have a rough time
on Mother's Day.

I came here to help them.

I didn't know a thing
about this girl.

Celina didn't tell me
she was pregnant.

Fifteen years later,
the girl shows up.

What does she want?
What can I offer her?

We found some letters.

All of them were signed by you.

-That's not my handwriting.
-What?

-It's not my handwriting.
-It's not?

I swear, it's not mine.
I didn't write these letters.

Wait.

Write something here.

GERALDO IS AN IDIOT
I LOVED CELINA

What the hell?

Some cellmate of yours
took the letters

and pretended to be you.

Do you know who?

I spent 15 years in jail.
It could be anyone.

Damasceno sent me
the file on his cellmates.

-They are 17.
-I know. And?

Only one was released
on Mother's Day.

Reginaldo Mendes.

He was arrested ten times
for sexual offenses.

He's a b*stard.

Damn it.

Find anything about him
and send it to me.

-About Flávio too.
-Done.

You didn't believe Flávio?

I knew you wouldn't leave soon.

Could you help me?

Only if I don't have
to leave the computer.

You don't.

What do you need?

To figure something out.

-It's like a code.
-I love codes.

Show it to me.

TOURISTIC BRAZIL
GUIOMAR. CO1308

-This?
-I know it looks dumb.

But it's important for me.

Raul, isn't this girl
too young for you?

What?

No. Not at all.

What is she doing here?
She isn't a journalist.

She's not taking notes.
She isn't asking any questions.

Edith, you have the soul
of an investigator.

She lives in a kitchenette
without furniture.

She has no family or friends
in São Paulo.

Her ID is fake.

What is she doing here?

Raul.

Check this out.

Flávio and Reginaldo
are exemplary prisoners.

Flávio was never in a fight
or used drugs.

And he's studying.

Reginaldo was converted
in prison

and has a support group
for prisoners.

He had an address
that no longer exists.

Why am I not surprised?

He goes to church now?
Which church?

It is a new denomination,
created inside.

Sacred Church
of Divine Purification.

I know there are some
around here,

but I don't know where.

Find that out.

If it were digital,
I would know by now.

But it's just for ex-cons.

-If you give me more time...
-We don't have time, Tai.

Sure.

-Wait, what time is it?
-I don't know.

It's eight o'clock.

What's going on?

Damn it!

I sometimes think

about how she would look like
at this age.

She disappeared here,
in São Paulo.

She was looking for her father.

How can you stand
working with this?

Have you signed them?

Raul, I'm trying to move on.

It's been over ten years.

Nobody suffered more than me.

I still suffer.

But a time comes when...

I know she's still out there.

I know it.

I can't forget her.

I can't.

ANGELO SEMI AVENUE
DEI, 213

You figured it out?

It was easier
than what I thought.

I thought, what could this be?

CO 13.08?

Corinthians 13, verse eight.

"For we cannot do anything
against the truth,

but only for the truth."

Let me hear you say "Amen".

It's fine, Tai.
But what does it mean?

It's an epigraph
of the St. Clare's Convent.

There are only three
in São Paulo.

But I found out
there's only one Sister Guiomar.

Tai, you are unique.

The best!

-Thanks!
-Bye. Take care.

Dad!

Dad?

Dad?

Melina!

You have the same face
as you did when you were a kid.

Guiomar.

Your father came here once.

He asked me to welcome you
in a good way.

If you ever came.

Do you know anything
about my father?

You have me and the Lord.

Have faith, and you will never
be alone.

How long have you known
my father?

For over 40 years.

We belonged to a generation
that needed to trust

in their partners.

There wasn't a way out.

My father left me a postcard.

He wanted me to find you.

Do you know where he is?

I'm sorry.

I don't know.

I'm here if you need me.
Do you have a place to stay?

Yes.

I can sell it to you for 40.

Hello, Tiribu. How's the accent?

Perfect.

It looks nice.

When you left Pinheiros' prison,

you went to a sect for ex-cons,

-right?
-I've been saved, bro.

Hey, cutie,
do you want to pick one?

Yes, sure.

What about this one?

Wow!

-It's pretty.
-How much?

-For you, 20.
-Twenty?

This sect you went to...

Who was the pastor?
What was his name?

Pastor Jair is really good.

He helped many brothers
get well.

Do you know the address
of this sect?

The shameless sinner,

do you know him?

The one who sins
and blames the Lord.

"No, Pastor!
When I cheated on my wife,

when I k*lled,
God wasn't there!"

That's a lie!

God doesn't leave us!

Glory to God!

Take care, boy.

May the peace be with you.

My agent friends,
do you want the blessing too?

We do not.

You look like agents.

The House of the Lord
is open for everybody,

-no judgment at all.
-Thanks, Pastor.

We just want information,

Do you know Reginaldo Mendes?

-Reginaldo Mendes?
-Cabello.

Cabello? Sure, I know him.

Today, Cabello is
a worker for the Lord.

He has done an amazing job

with the brothers
that are in jail with him.

Fine.

Pastor, there's a 16-year-old
that's in danger.

I know Reginaldo had
some problems in the past.

Yes, but he's in jail now,
you should know that.

He was reprieved
on Mother's Day.

Really?

Yes.

If he shows up here,
I'll reach you.

It's really important for you
to know

that they found peace here
for the mistakes they made.

-Sure. Thanks, Pastor.
-You are welcome.

God bless you.

Excuse me.

I like him.

You know where to come
when you are free.

Better salary, for sure.

What?

Was I the only one
who disliked the Pastor?

Maybe because he's a pastor
from the suburbs, and you are...

What?

I think he means
you are a spoiled girl.

Cut that off.

If you are more than that,
feel free to talk.

I won't listen to this nonsense.

I play along with him,
but he's done.

-Yes.
-Come.

Eat it at your place,
it will get cold now.

-Hello.
-Hello.

-Everything okay?
-Yes.

-A crazy meat, please.
-Yes.

Already?

-Seven bucks, right?
-Yes.

-With a soda, eight.
-Sure, take the money.

One question.

Yeah.

People from the church
eat here, right?

A man has got to eat.

Do you know this man?

Maybe, but...

I don't remember
anybody's features.

Do you have any granddaughter?
Any daughters?

Yes, a daughter
and three grandchildren.

Do you know what this man did?

Everybody here
went to jail sometime.

But he's a good man.

You know him, then?

Let's go check inside.

We are breaking in?

Damasceno will eat you alive.

We are already here, right?

Leave him!

Raul?

Shut up!

I wanted to ask you
more questions about Reginaldo.

-Let's go inside.
-I don't want to bother you.

-Have some water or juice.
-It's not necessary.

It's not a problem. Come.

It's here, right?

The Lord is my shepherd,
I lack nothing.

Come.

How long have you been
doing this? Damn it!

God is with us.
He gives us strength...

Talk, b*stard. How long have
you been kidnapping children?

How long?

I will fear no evil.

Pray, b*stard, pray!

Kneeled before...

Was it you?

Did you reply to the letters
she sent to her dad?

I just wanted to help her.

One, two, three.

God asked me to.
I did what He wanted.

Did you r*pe her?

Talk, b*stard!

Stop.

Now, she's with Him.

Stop!

Raul?

-What?
-Stop.

Stop!

Stop, brother!

She's with Him.
She's with the Lord.

-b*stard, did you k*ll her?
-She's with Him.

She's in the house of the Lord.
She's with Him.

Have some coffee.

-Thanks.
-Excuse me.

I'll go get something.

Priscila?

Relax.

Damn it.

You found her?

Tell me.

Let's go for a walk.

Turn here.

-Let's go, damn it.
-This will end up bad.

This will go wrong.

Come on, damn it!

-Speed up, damn it!
-Relax.

I warned you, damn it!

Go!

Come on, sl*t!

You won't get away with it.
You won't.

Shut up, sl*t.
I won't go back to prison.

Are you okay?

Come. Where's the kid?

Where's the girl?

Tell me, where is she?

Relax, it's over.

We are here to help you.

It's over.

Trust me.

She's here, she's fine!

Everything is fine.

Come.

You almost got k*lled.

What were you doing there?

Honey?

God!

Are you okay?

I'm sorry, mom.

I'm sorry.

Thank God.

I thought I had lost you.

I thought I had lost you.

Waldir?

When I see a sad image
like that one,

I think we need to see

the purpose
behind every sacrifice.

Why did you call me, Guiomar?

Because you were right.

I'm sorry, kid.

Look.

I didn't know
whether to give you this statue

or just wait for you to forget.

But your destiny...

is yours. Only yours.

I can't intercede.

Your father gave me this
when he came to São Paulo.

He asked me to give it to you.

My father
never had faith in God.

He could have left me
many things,

but a saint?

Saint Lucy,
patron saint of the blind.

Of the blind?

Of the blind!
