01x08 - The Woman Who Knew Too Much

[bunniefuu]

Sweethearts,

if you are watching this, that means

I… I've failed.

I've lost control.

But I…

I don't want you to ever feel

the way I felt when my father was gone.

Okay?

I want you to know that…

I've always tried to be there for you,

to be present.

To be with you.

But sometimes,

in order to protect those

you love the most,

we have to make…

…the most difficult decision.

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

24 HOURS EARLIER

Are you serious?

You really stayed?

You didn't use the tickets?

You're in danger, you know?

You want to protect yourself,

not me, don't you?

You're just worried about yourself.

You made up that story about my dad.

You had me believe he was a dirty cop

who sh*t my mom!

What kind of man are you?

He was your friend!

You're just a clerk.

Who ordered my father k*lled?

Did you do it?

- Hey…

- Who was it? Was it you?

I stopped them from k*lling you, damn it!

Who are they, Carvana?

f*ck, Verô! This is su1c1de!

An orphanage that raises kids for crime?

My dad was investigating that sh*t,

and you put him in that nursing home,

so he would be a vegetable, didn't you?

You kept me close

so you could keep an eye on me.

- You know nothing.

- So tell me!

- Tell me!

- Tell you what, damn it?

What do you want to hear?

That your dad is not the hero

you made up in your head?

Júlio was part of this.

He wanted to get out

when you joined the force

because he didn't want you

to get dragged into this sh*t.

- Stop lying.

- Your father was involved in this.

He tried to speak up and get out,

but no one gets out alive.

I'm tired of your lies!

- I'm tired.

- So am I.

I'm very tired.

I don't know what else to do.

How did you end up in this sh*t?

You do one favor here and another there.

And before you know it, it's too late.

If you refuse, you're dead,

just like your father.

No one gets a fancy invitation.

What are the names, Carvana?

Tell me the names.

I want to know them all.

I'm a small fish.

Brandão is one. So is Anita. Who else?

They are everywhere. In the police,

in the justice system, in politics…

- Who are the bosses?

- It doesn't matter.

f*ck that. You know who they are.

I'm out.

That badge is your shield.

Shield?

- I'm not afraid of dying.

- What if they k*ll your husband?

Or Rafael?

Or Lila?

What if they k*ll Lila?

They are hundreds of miles away

from you and your mob.

They're far away by now!

By now,

they know what pastry Lila had

after dinner!

Get real!

They even know you've been

to the old orphanage!

- Is there a new one?

- f*ck, Verô! That’s enough!

All I wanted was to protect you,

so I wouldn't lose you.

Take it.

It's unregistered.

Go somewhere safe, lay low for a while.

Take it, honey.

Mom!

My babies! I've missed you so much!

- The hotel has a pool, Mom.

- Does it?

We swam all day.

Rafa is teaching me a few tricks.

I'll be with you guys soon.

Okay?

Where is your dad?

Hey, honey!

You're getting divorced, right?

Jonas' mom went on a trip,

and later they got divorced.

- Mom, is that true?

- What's that? No!

I just have some work to do.

I'll be there soon.

- Got it? Okay?

- Yeah.

- Go watch TV now, okay?

- Okay.

- They're gone.

- Where did that question come from?

They are not stupid.

They'll get tired of this eventually.

Lila asked about you all day long.

If you really want to know…

I'm the one who's tired.

I'm tired of this sh*t.

I turned in my badge.

Isn't this job your whole life?

You guys are my life.

I just need to know

if the woman I'm helping

made the right decision.

Didn't you say

it would be nice to have a different life?

I think now is the time.

We're here waiting for you, Verô.

We'll be waiting, my love.

I love you guys so much.

So, so much.

Homicide, Wilson Carvana.

Hello?

Hello?

Tell them Verônica

won't be a problem. I assure you.

She has no proof.

Verônica isn't a thr*at.

The thr*at is Brandão.

k*ll that m*therf*cker.

You know how to do it.

He has lots of enemies.

Deal with it. See you at the station.

Hey, buddy, some help?

"Bridge with colorful lights…"

"Junkyard…"

Hi, Nelson.

Carvana's car was found

abandoned on the street.

No sign of him. Something happened, Verô.

He was in his office all morning.

He called me once to fix the printer.

- Did he call anyone else?

- Nothing out of the ordinary.

He had a ten-minute call

with the Chief of Security.

- And his cell?

- In his car.

- They're checking the calls.

- Who's on the case?

Get over here!

What did you do to Carvana?

Tell me what you did!

Shame it wouldn't work between us.

- That husband, two kids

- Don't talk about my family!

When going for a swim,

be careful not to drown.

I could k*ll you right here,

but you aren't worth it.

You are too insignificant.

Get the f*ck out.

f*ck! f*ck!

f*ck.

Get out.

I thought you only k*lled women.

- She took the job, Love.

- Great!

- Let's put your bag in the trunk.

- There's no need.

I insist.

"Bridge…"

Hi, how are you?

Excuse me. Could you tell me

where Cláudio's ranch is?

- I don't know.

- One with a creek, a bridge…

Thanks.

"Street with potholes…"

Hands where I can see them!

Don't even think of going for the g*n,

you scum! Do it!

Ah!

Where's Janete? Tell me!

Where's Janete?

Tell me!

Answer me, m*therf*cker!

Ah…

Answer me!

Are you alone?

Waiting for backup?

Huh?

Are you okay?

Come on, let's go!

Come, I'll help you!

Let's go, godfather!

- I can't.

- Yes, you can. Come on!

I can't.

Stand up!

Quick!

Godfather!

It's your fault.

- Chief Carlos Alberto?

- Yes.

This is Verônica Torres,

the clerk at Homicide.

Hi, Verônica. Have they found Carvana?

- No, sir.

- Is anything the matter?

You were a friend of my father's.

I have to report something very serious

involving the police.

Someone tried to k*ll me.

They're now threatening my family.

Where are you?

- Can I come to the station now?

- No, we'll meet at your place.

You will be too exposed at the station.

Okay. I'll text you the address.

I'll meet you there in an hour.

Okay. Don't talk to anyone else.

Go straight home.

And be careful.

God damn it, where have you been?

- Things went wrong.

- Everyone's looking for you.

Things went wrong, Nelson, terribly wrong.

They heard you and Carvana argue.

They say you threatened him at gunpoint.

You are the main suspect now.

What is going on?

Turn yourself in and come clean.

They won't arrest me, Nelson.

- They'll k*ll me, just like my dad.

- Who are they?

Verô?

Verô?

Verô?

Hello, Verônica?

Can you hear me, Verônica?

Verônica?

Verônica?

Where are you?

I can't believe this.

Sweethearts,

if you are watching this, that means

I… I've failed.

I've lost control.

But I…

I don't want you to ever feel

the way I felt when my father was gone.

Okay?

I want you to know that…

I've always tried to be there for you,

to be present.

To be with you.

But sometimes,

in order to protect

those you love the most,

we have to make…

the most difficult decision.

VICTIMS

TWO MONTHS LATER

On the 7th of this month,

due to an anonymous tip,

we were led to a ranch

in Serra da Cantareira,

where, so far, we have found 15 bodies.

Commissioner,

is the search still in progress?

Yes, with the help of

the fire department and K9 units.

- Why was the case classified?

- Are there any suspects?

Police Chief Anita Berlinger,

head of the Homicide division,

will give further details.

We believe it to be a serial k*ller,

due to ritualistic aspects

and the large number of victims.

Chief, who were the victims?

So far, nine women

have been identified,

all aged between 16 and 23,

all from São Luís, state of Maranhão.

They were at a clandestine burial site.

The same area the officers were found?

Yes. Three officers

were secretly working on the case.

Chief Wilson Carvana

was found in the woods,

near the women's bodies,

k*lled by a b*llet to the back.

The bodies of clerk Verônica Torres

and Lt. Colonel Cláudio Antunes Brandão

were found carbonized in the bunker.

Both bodies were identified

through comparison with dental records,

according to coroner Victor Prata.

Last week, Verônica Torres' body

was released

and buried in a private funeral,

respecting the family's wishes.

Our investigations are still ongoing.

We won't rest until we bring

the m*rder*r to justice.

- Chief!

- Commissioner…

Nice.

That hair looks good on you.

So, this is where you are staying.

For now.

I sure hope this is worth it.

I've submitted the autopsy reports.

Verônica Torres was b*rned to death.

And Janete Cruz is still alive.

How long do you plan

on keeping this up, Verô?

Paulo was a wreck at the funeral,

not to mention the kids.

I felt like a monster.

I had to do it.

For them.

I had to disappear.

Thank you, my friend.

I will be forever grateful for this.

Thanks.

What now, Janete?

Now…

I'm going to end this mafia

and get back to my family.

Are you going to take it to the press?

No.

I'm doing it my way.

When will I see you again?

HIERARCHY? MENTOR?

CURRENT LEADER? TRAINING KIDS?

ORPHANAGE CLOSES DOWN

NEW ADDRESS?

ANOTHER VICTIM IDENTIFIED

PROTECTED MY DAD

ARE YOU COMING? I'M ON MY SECOND GLASS.
