Hi, Marina.
The gifts that you'll need are in the trunk.
Your keys.
And finally...
your new bank account.
The password is the date of issue of your driver's licence,
you can change it whenever you want.
This is your account balance.
HELLO MARINA! BALANCE R$ 5,000,000.00
Good luck.
Thank you.
Mom?
Oh my God, Marina.
Honey, I missed you!
So much.
I can't believe it.
One year away from us in that strange land.
You're back.
I'm back. I missed you so much.
Where's Cícero?
You're back now, right?
Yeah, Mom. Of course.
I'm back to make our lives better.
As I promised you.
Where's Cícero? I haven't seen him.
He's at school. He'll be back soon.
Sit down and tell me everything.
How was it there?
It was good.
Very good, but I don't want to talk about England,
because that's in the past now.
I want to talk about our future.
Let's leave this place, Mom.
Slow down, honey. You just arrived.
But I've been waiting so long for this day.
And the reason I made money was to change our lives.
I know.
Now you can leave that sewing machine behind.
Cícero will go to a good school.
But I like my life here.
Mom.
Mom...
think about Cícero.
He deserves to have a better life,
better education, opportunities, you know?
- But where will we go? - Curitiba.
It's not far, come on.
Curitiba.
The state capital.
My goodness.
I think your brother would like that.
A big city would be good for him.
Yes, Mom. That's the spirit!
Our lives will be so much better.
- I promise you. - But we need some time.
- You know I have a lot of stuff. - I know.
I've got fabrics...
- Mom, whose is that fancy car outside? - What car, darling?
- Marina! - I missed you so much, kid!
How you've grown. Mom, he's a man now!
- Honey, whose car is that? - It's mine.
But I'll explain that later, okay?
We have news for you.
Tell me. Come on.
I managed to convince Mrs. Ofélia here
that we should move to Curitiba.
We're going to live in Curitiba?
I knew you'd be happy.
Look, those are for you guys.
- Marina. - Gifts.
Mom...
they're all original!
They're English football jerseys.
Honey, that's expensive, isn't it?
I've got everything planned, Mom.
I'm going to open my own law firm.
- What do you mean, everything planned? - Trust me.
We're going to start a new life.
Now, I only want to look forward.
ONE YEAR LATER
Hi, Marina.
- How are you? - I'm fine.
And you?
I'm fine, thank you.
Congratulations!
For your law firm's success.
The world of business law is not easy.
Thank you.
I'm going to a meeting upstairs.
Have a good meeting.
You don't need to get so nervous when you see me.
Think of me as a friend you haven't seen in a long time.
This is me.
I trust you very much.
- Here are the contracts you asked for. - Thanks, Ana.
How's my schedule today?
Your most important meeting is at 11 a.m. with the mining group.
Oh, okay.
- Anything else? - No.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
And the others in Paraná...
Marina.
Hi.
- Who are you? - I'm Norma.
I haven't seen you in a long time.
Hey...
you don't need to be afraid.
You're safe here.
I don't... I don't understand.
What is this place?
It's a special place.
Try to calm your heart.
I feel so guilty.
Everything is alright.
Believe me.
Learn from your experiences
and follow the path of good.
- I did something really bad. - The universe has a plan.
Who has woken up?
Oh, who's Mommy's gorgeous boy?
Who's Mommy's gorgeous boy?
Let's eat?
Yeah, let's leave that here.
Yeah?
- Yeah? - Did you like that, my love?
My earring.
That's my earring.
Wow, how different.
How different.
Hi, love.
- Good morning. - Good morning.
I thought you weren't going in today.
I'm running late.
Are you okay?
The nightmares again.
If you talked to me about them, maybe I could help you.
Not even I understand them.
Bernardo recommended a therapist. So I'm going to...
get an appointment with him.
That's great.
Ms. Maria Eugênia, it's for you,
- it was in the bedroom. - Thanks, Elvira.
Hello?
- Hello? - Is Eugênia there?
- Hello? - Maria Eugênia?
Speaking.
Who's that?
- Bye. - See you.
- Sorry, who is this? - C'est Pierre.
How did you get my number?
Relax. Don't I at least deserve a bonjour?
I missed you. You didn't reply to my e-mails.
I don't have time for e-mails. I've got a young child.
Oh, a child?
Yeah, a child.
Then you have no more excuses. I'm here in Brazil.
- In Brazil? - Why are you so surprised?
Didn't you know Jamille has family here?
She needs to practice her Portuguese.
I'm here in Curitiba.
C'est bon ça, non? When can we meet?
No, I can't do that.
Oh, chérie, I'll have to be more direct, right?
You need to come here. Right now.
Otherwise, your husband will find out a lot of things about Paris.
Everything that happened while he was sleeping.
But I can't now.
Tomorrow, then.
Come have breakfast with me.
I'll text you the address.
Au revoir, mon amour.
So?
She's going to do everything I want.
Why are you so sure?
The secret she confided in me...
is worth a lot.
And her family has a lot of money.
Imagine if I'm the father of her little heir.
REBUILDING EMOTIONS
That one is very good.
I guarantee.
I'm sorry.
- Sorry, I didn't mean to frighten you. - No, it's okay.
- It's good, then? - It's very good.
I'm still thinking about it.
I might come back for it.
I love reading.
- And... - Yeah, me too.
But, recently,
- I've only been reading lawsuits. - Oh, really?
Sorry, but that's not a good book.
Check this one out. This one is about the same thing...
Do you work here?
- No. - Why not?
Because I work elsewhere.
And why is this one better?
This one's about psychoanalysis.
About mental health, emotional health.
It's very good. You'll like it.
Alright, I'm convinced.
I'll get this one.
And I'll get this novel too.
That one... Seriously?
That's not a good book.
Gosh, I can't get anything right.
But I'll get this one anyway.
- It's just a suggestion. - Thanks.
The fee for my advice is a coffee.
Advice that was unsolicited as well as useless.
And the coffee?
You might have noticed already that I'm a lawyer, right?
- Right. - And you, what do you do?
- I'm a therapist. - What kind of therapy?
Talking and more talking...
I've traveled a lot, the West, the East...
Studying Brahma, Krishna, the god of love.
Mother Teresa of Calcutta, the orishas.
We've got to evolve, right?
- Your studies are very interesting. - That's what I like.
I think we could be good friends.
You like reading, so do I.
We like making friends, right?
Yeah... Books, all right.
But I must confess that I'm out of practice in making friends.
You can practice with me. I'm a good friend, you can trust me.
Tell me more about this book.
I think Science often overlooks the spiritual realm.
Things have been improving,
but reincarnation, for instance, really intrigues me,
because from the dawn of humanity
we've been searching for meaning in everything we do.
- Don't you think? - I do.
- Yeah. - What a coincidence.
I've been thinking a lot about that too.
One more reason for us to be friends, see?
Who knows...
There's this place I've been going to for about a year that's helped me a lot.
It's a center for spiritual studies.
- Is it here? - Close by.
Well, I have to go. I'm going to pay for the books.
How about dinner tomorrow?
Already?
- Like, so soon? - We're friends, aren't we?
Call me.
We'll talk about it.
Marina Souza. Okay, then.
We'll talk about it.
Esquire.
Good timing.
I just ordered a croque-monsieur.
Would you like anything?
- Please. - Yes, of course.
Merci.
Hello, Pierre.
I was expecting a little more warmth from you.
- You're blackmailing me. - No.
You didn't understand.
I came to Brazil just to see you.
Jamille and I...
are going through...
a desperate situation.
I lost everything to gambling.
For someone who lost everything, this hotel is a bit expensive.
This hotel is a pale reflection of everything that I used to have.
I couldn't live any other way.
I only came here to ask a friend for help.
For old times' sake.
That night in Paris was a mistake.
It was a... big mistake.
I was...
I was lost, confused.
I had a lot going on at the time.
Now...
Everything is different.
My life is different now.
Everything's changed, right?
But you...
You're still beautiful.
Beautiful... and rich.
- Your family's company is more and more... - It's my mother's company.
- We live off my husband's salary. - Oh.
Speaking of your husband...
If, by any chance, you're not able to help me,
I'll have to set up a meeting with him.
Mais non, fais pas comme ça. Mon amour.
It's only three million dollars.
Quoi?
C'est pas si grave.
My croque-monsieur.
Hi, Elvira, is everything all right?
Ms. Maria Eugênia.
Dionísio has fainted again.
Let's take him to the doctor.
Pack his things and come down. I'm coming to pick you up, okay?
Those are my questions regarding the contract.
My client will only sign with the proposed changes.
Look, Marina, there are too many demands here.
Our office has a draft template
- I can provide you. - I agree that...
- Could you give me a moment? - Yes, of course.
Hi, Mom.
What do you mean?
Calm down. I'm on my way, okay?
I apologize, but I have to go
due to a family emergency, can we...
- reschedule the meeting? - Yes, sure.
- Ana, my secretary, will be in touch, okay? - Okay.
- Have a nice day. - Have a nice day.
His seat is in the back.
Honey.
Cícero.
My God.
- You need to help your brother. - I know, Mom.
- Let's take him to the doctor. - Don't worry.
I know someone who can help.
Come on! How's he doing, Elvira?
- He's got that same thing. - What thing?
- It's spiritual, not a physical illness. - I don't believe in that stuff.
- Let's go to the doctor. - What for? He's going to say
it's a stomach flu again. I can assure you.
Look, we can go to a place I go to,
- it's close to here. - What's that?
It's a center for spiritual studies.
They also have a kindergarten, I always go there.
Eunice can help us.
Where is it?
Back up.
This way.
Relax.
- Hi, Rafael. This is Marina. - Glad you called.
I'm sorry for calling like this, but it's an emergency. I think you know about these things.
- What happened? If there's anything I... - It's my brother.
He's kind of strange, in a trance, you know?
He scribbles stuff.
Remember that center I talked about?
Yeah, that's what I thought about.
Take him there.
They'll help you. Tell them I sent you.
- I'll text you the address. - Okay, thank you.
Sure. Take care.
The door's always open. Come.
Eunice.
Eunice, the baby lost consciousness again.
Okay, we'll help you.
Raise your thoughts to God.
He had the opportunity to get rid of a past trauma.
Something that happened a long time ago.
And, this time, he relived it.
- But he's just a child. - Yes.
Here, we study a lot about reincarnation, Ms. Maria Eugênia.
Reincarnation?
I don't know anything about that.
And I confess that scares me a little.
There's no need.
If you read this book,
you will understand better
and be able to help your son.
Elvira always talks about him and you.
He's an angel.
You and your son have a deep bond, right?
We really do.
Relax, Cícero, we're going to help you.
Marina,
don't suffer so much.
Believe.
You didn't do anything wrong.
But things need to be clear.
Marina.
Marina, what happened? I was at school.
I know, darling, everything is okay.
Don't worry.
Why are you like that?
Because I'm happy
that we are here.
Listen, this is Eunice.
Don't worry, Cícero.
I'd suggest that he takes one of our courses.
You'll learn to deal with the voices you hear.
You'll learn to help yourself and other people too.
- How about that? - Sure.
Of course, we're coming, right?
So...
the people I can hear are all dead?
That's one of the things you'll learn here.
Death is not the end.
It's not exactly as we think.
Life goes on.
But I'll let you talk about that with your sister.
She's very interested in that.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Yes, I am.
You can come whenever you want.
The door is always open.
Listen, Eunice, I...
I don't know how to thank you.
Oh, Marina...
here.
Take this and read carefully.
That message is for you.
He's fine now. Very alert.
Thank you, Elvira.
He's much calmer now, thank God.
But you still look concerned.
No, it's nothing. I got...
a bit disoriented with everything that happened today with him, but...
I'll be fine. I'm going to stay with him, okay?
Oh, my darling!
I'm okay, Mom. I'm just a bit tired.
I'm going to take a shower and go to bed.
Okay. But...
He's fine, Mom.
He's fine.
So...
Cícero is a special kid.
He has...
an acute sensitivity.
Do you know anything about that?
Of course.
- I see my Dad sometimes. - What?
He always smiles.
He seems so happy, honey.
But you never said anything, Mom.
Well, you're so bossy and serious, you'd probably think I'm nuts.
Of course not, Mom.
Do you know what comforts me the most?
Knowing that your grandad is okay.
He gave me so much strength to go on.
I know.
And especially during the most difficult times... My God.
Listen,
we went to a center for spiritual studies.
It was really good.
So we'll be going there more frequently.
To learn, to evolve, and also to know how to deal
with this sensitivity that he has.
- Everything's fine, okay? - Okay.
- Bye. - Bye.
- Hello, Henrique. - Hi.
- How are you? - Not so good, doctor.
- Just call me Rafael. - Sure, Rafael.
Come on in.
Sit down, please.
- Thanks. - You're Bernardo's friend, right?
Yes. We work together.
And Bernardo is a good friend of the family.
- He knows how to be a good friend. - That's true.
But tell me, Henrique, how can I help you?
Well, I've been suffering from insomnia
and on top of that, when I do fall asleep,
I have nightmares.
Do you have any idea what could be causing the nightmares?
- Something at work? - No.
Everything is the same at work.
Nothing particularly stressful.
I have no idea what it could be.
We'll talk about it.
And we'll try to reach a conclusion.
- We'll also talk about the nightmares. - Perfect.
- The lawsuits you asked for. - Thanks, Ana.
I'm going home now. Do you need anything else?
No. Thank you.
- Have a good night, see you tomorrow. - See you.
Marina,
there's no need to suffer.
Believe.
You didn't do anything wrong.
But things need to be clear,
and this reunion can no longer be postponed.
Be at peace and have courage.
The universe has a plan.
From your friend, Norma.
Marina, do you live with your family? You're not married, right?
No. My mom and my brother live in the countryside,
but I want to bring them to live with me, yes.
What about your father?
He abandoned us, but it was a long time ago.
- Are you still in touch with him? - No.
- Do you miss him? - Not at all.
Have you forgiven him?
I don't think about that.
It must be really painful.
And... marriage?
- Do you think about getting married? - No. No plans for that.
And children?
Not so soon either. Look...
I'm very interested in my career, if...
you want to hear about that.
Hello.
How can I repay you for your help today?
I'll think of something right now. Wait a second.
I'll take you out to dinner.
Okay. Can I at least pick the place?
I'll give you that.
That's nice. Yes, madam esquire.
I'll text you the address right now then.
- Okay. - Alright, see you.
See you.
So you lived in London.
Yes. I lived there.
I love London. I've visited several times.
Have you been to Convent Garden?
Yes. Once, but...
I didn't have time for anything.
- I was always in the office. - Really?
In such a beautiful city, what a pity.
I know. I didn't like that.
Look...
They say that if you're tired of London, you're tired of living.
No. I wasn't tired of living, but I was tired of London.
I wasn't a tourist, I didn't see anything, I don't like to talk about it.
Let's change the subject then.
I know a place, next door. We can go there to dance afterwards.
- What do you think? - Dance?
Yeah.
I don't dance. You can find a better dance partner than me.
No. I prefer to dance with you.
But I don't dance, Rafael.
That was good.
I've never had a night like that.
It'll be the first of many in your new life as a dancer.
- I'm a great dancer. - Yeah.
- I found my calling tonight. - Who would have thought?
You look beautiful like that, smiling.
You should smile more.
Better like this?
Yeah... more or less.
I have to go. I don't even know how I'm going to work tomorrow.
Me neither. Tell me about it.
Don't you want to...
I had a great time.
- And I have to go. - Got it.
- Good night. - Good night.
See you.
Has she called?
No. Not yet.
I don't know... It's been a while. Is she really going to call?
Of course!
Her secrets are worth a lot of money.
Will those secrets pay for the hotel?
Do you know what you need?
You need to have faith.
Right. Of course.
What are you looking for on the computer?
Nothing.
I'm reading the news from Paris.
How I miss it!
Don't cry.
I know that what you feared has happened.
But the path of truth is unchangeable.
He's going to tell my husband everything.
He asked for three million dollars to keep his mouth shut.
I regret that night every day.
I know.
The solution is to talk to your mother.
- No, she won't understand. - She loves you like you love your son.
Talk to her.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
How's everything at home?
Fine.
Well, actually...
I've noticed that Maria Eugênia is a bit tense lately.
Tell me more about her.
We met in high school.
Last year before college.
I was from the countryside, and she...
she was a bit... shy,
more solitary.
For me, she was the most interesting girl at school.
Later on, I found out that she was also the wealthiest.
She wasn't one of the best students, and I...
Well, I was very hardworking.
I gave her math classes.
Her mother admired my devotion to studying
and always invited me to have lunch or dinner with them.
Maria Eugênia liked my company.
We laughed a lot.
Talked a lot.
We ended up dating at college.
I wanted to go into Engineering, but her mom convinced me to do Economics.
But she was right.
Adele.
Mother and daughter who never managed to get along.
Tell me more about their relationship.
It's a difficult relationship.
No fights or arguments.
It's... How should I put this, it's...
a cold and silent relationship.
My wife doesn't know how to deal with a powerful and perfect mother and...
And she ends up living in her shadow.
I believe that could change one day.
Maria Eugênia is as strong a woman as her mother is.
She just hasn't found ways to express that yet.
That's quite common.
I love my wife very much, Rafael.
But I did something that...
Something that makes me feel...
confused.
Something... Tell me, Henrique.
- What exactly did you do? - I...
I'd rather not talk about that now.
Maybe another day, is that okay?
That's okay.
We've talked about a lot of things.
- And that has helped me a lot. - That's great.
When you feel comfortable,
that's the right moment to talk.
Hello, Ms. Maria Eugênia.
Go ahead, your mother's on her way.
Hi, honey. I'm sorry to make you wait.
I was with the architects from the new company.
Is everything okay with Dionísio?
You look pale.
Maria Eugênia.
I was never able to look you in the eye and tell you how I feel, Mom.
You, with all your...
genius,
charisma,
success, I...
You've built a wall between us, Mom.
Since I was a child I knew I wasn't going to be like you, I...
I've always felt diminished.
- No, honey, you are... - I'm your only big failure!
Am I not, madam Adele?
I'm the one who speaks and no one listens.
The spoiled brat who'll never grow up, and who can be manipulated. Right, Mom?
I'm always trying to be the daughter that you wanted me to be.
And not who I really am.
You make me feel insignificant.
But...
But now I need your help. I... don't know what to do anymore.
- Honey, come sit down. - I don't want to!
Easy.
Relax and tell me everything. I want to help you.
I had an affair with another man in Paris.
An affair with another man?
Yeah, an affair with another man.
Do you think it was easy for me after all that happened with Henrique?
I felt humiliated, incapable, I felt useless!
But I love Henrique!
And I know that he loves me too.
He doesn't think I'm a foolish heiress...
completely useless, a failure.
- You're not a failure. - Really?
But now that man is here in Curitiba.
And he's blackmailing me.
And the most ironic part is that he thinks he's Dionísio's father.
He threatened to Henrique everything.
Does he know everything?
No.
It was just one night.
But he knows enough to destroy my marriage and...
complicate things here at the company.
Maria Eugênia.
You're my only daughter.
You're my beloved daughter.
Honey,
you've been honest.
You've been brave.
I know how difficult this has been for you.
I know the sacrifice you made.
But trust me.
We're going to solve this together.
Everything will be fine.
I love you, honey.
Everything will be fine.
I don't want Henrique to know, Mom.
- My family means the world to me. - I know, honey.
Tell me his name and the hotel where he is.
- No, he's dangerous. - Bernardo will take care of everything.
- No, Mom, he's going to... - I trust Bernardo...
completely.
I'm so sorry, honey.
I love you.
Norma.
I'm glad you remember me.
I've been here before.
My God.
We're in another plane. She can't see you.
Maria.
- What happened? - I'm pregnant.
Again?
But I can't have this child.
I hate this child.
Don't worry, my friend.
Don't worry.
I lived here.
I lived here and I can remember.
Surprise, darling!
Come in!
Please.
Please, sit down, sir.
I'm Dr. Bernardo Gouveia.
I'm a lawyer with the Malta Group.
I thought so.
You are blackmailing Ms. Maria Eugênia, my client.
- A partner at the company I represent. - Well...
Sir, I wouldn't use such harsh words.
I'm just...
someone asking for help from a friend with whom
I had intimate liaisons in Paris.
Ms. Maria Eugênia doesn't recall any of that.
Let's get to the point, then.
Did you bring the money?
We are not paying you, Mr. Pierre.
Well, then I will be forced to reveal that boy's origin.
That child could be my son.
You can do any DNA test.
My client's husband is the child's father.
- You guys have a lot to lose. - You know, Mr. Pierre,
our French branch had you investigated.
I'm coming from the consulate now.
It seems that the French police is looking for you
for several crimes.
Gambling debts, theft,
- murder. - C'est pas vrai!
That's not true!
If you don't give me the money,
I will tell everything to the press.
- Interpol is going to love that. - No need for bluffing.
Your fucking client will have to pay for my silence.
Don't you get it?
There's an arrest warrant from Interpol with your name on it!
Am I being clear?
If I were you, I'd find a place to hide.
My client, against my advice,
decided not to press charges against you, and convinced her mother not to as well.
- I need to talk to Maria Eugênia. - That's not possible.
I'm your contact.
I don't have money anymore to pay for this hotel.
I need Maria Eugênia's help.
She'll understand. Please.
I'll see what I can do.
Adieu, Pierre.
What's the story with Interpol, Pierre?
Is that what you were looking for on the internet?
This must be about Nicole's jewelry. They think I stole it.
And did you steal it?
Of course not! She gave it to me before she died.
You know how much she loved me.
I hope you're not lying to me.
What now?
What are we going to do?
We're going to run away.
I'm going to take a bath.
I'm going to take a shower. And then we're going to pack.
I'm going to force Maria Eugênia to pay me.
You'll see.
Hi!
- Hi, Mom. - Hi, sweetheart.
Bernardo took care of everything. He's going to disappear.
- Are you sure? - Absolutely.
Be happy, my darling.
You deserve it.
- Thank you, Mom. - Just be happy, okay?
I love you so much!
I love you too, Mom.
And how's my grandson? He's gorgeous.
Grandma's boy.
Dionísio.
Show us what you've learned.
You'll see, Jamille. We'll try something else.
But she'll pay me. You'll see.
Of course!
We're always fine in the end.
Right, my darling?
My darling...
I love when you talk like that.
Honey, what...
Jamille?
Shit!
Jamille!
If you've attended the pass,
whenever you need, our services...
Eunice, Eunice...
- Hi! - I need to talk to you.
- I think this is the room. - Yeah, it is.
- I'm taking him there. Will you wait here? - I will. Go ahead.
Anxious?
It's gonna be cool.
Enjoy it, okay? I'll be back in a while to get you.
- Marina, I'm going in, okay? - Okay, sweetheart. I'm coming.
- It was a nice evening, wasn't it? - It was.
You know, I'm becoming a better person
- since I met you. - Yeah?
- I think I am too, you know? - Really?
Going to the center for spiritual studies
has been helping me a lot.
Since I started going to the center, I...
I actually started to understand
my role as therapist in people's lives.
And understanding reincarnation as a learning process
also gave me more motivation to work, you know?
Today, I see myself as an instrument for others.
A tool.
If someone wants to use me, okay. If they don't...
You're a wonderful man.
I love you.
Me too.
You too?
- Fine. - "Me too"?
- Fine. - No.
I'll pretend I didn't hear that.
- My God. - Come on, let's try again.
I'm distracted here, go.
- I love you? - No.
Not like that.
Come here.
Can I ask you something?
Yes, you can.
Is there something you want to tell me?
Like a secret.
Why?
When we were talking about London, I felt a strange vibe...
I don't know. I felt like asking you.
There's nothing strange, Rafael.
- Okay, I'm just asking... - And I'm just answering.
Not even a boyfriend? Nothing? Nothing of the sort over there?
I'm not going to be jealous or anything like that, it's just that...
- Nothing? - No.
There's no boyfriend, nothing. And it's all in the past, all right?
- It's gone. - All right.
It's gone.
And you can't talk about it?
All right.
I...
met a guy.
During the trip.
He was nice.
Polite, kind.
And...
I wanted to lose my virginity and...
I wanted to do that with someone I could get attached to.
I see no issues so far.
He was married.
All right. I'm not going to judge you.
Okay?
Now you know everything.
That's all? See?
Don't you feel better now with no secrets?
I do.
I saw Maria Eugênia at the center yesterday.
We've known each other for such a long time.
Your search for the spiritual is making you more sensitive.
Follow that path, Marina.
And you will have a better understanding of your past experiences.
But I feel so guilty.
Rafael and my family don't know what I've done.
Guilt imprisons you.
Learn from your experiences and follow the path of your evolution.
- But if I tell them... - You know the discomfort of lying,
why not experience the peace of truth?
Look forward, Marina.
Seek to act for the peace and love of all.
Including of your own heart.
Freeze. Put your hands on your head.
On your knees.
Handcuff him.
My long-lost friend.
- Me, long-lost? - Yeah.
Now you only have time for Adele, Adele...
Now you're going to use my secrets against me?
No.
I just think that you should confess your love to her.
Look into her eyes, she has to hear that from you.
But I've already done that.
- Really? - Yeah. And she wasn't interested.
No. She needs to hear that from you.
- She already has. - When?
- Many times, a long time ago, decades.
- As college students? - Yeah, that's when it started...
- And from then on... - It's a long time...
But we're not here to talk about me, but about you.
- Okay. - Why did you call me?
Right.
Well, for starters...
I'm in love.
No. Save your jokes, please. Come on.
But that's not all. I...
Actually, I...
I need your help, to investigate something.
I think she has a...
A secret.
She has a secret, and I need to know if she's lying.
- Oh, Rafael, it's just begun... - No.
I just need to know
if she left the country about two years ago.
- If she went to London or not. - Why?
Because whenever I mention London, she...
becomes weird, gets defensive.
- She changes the subject. - Maybe it was just a bad trip.
No.
There's more to it.
There's something screaming here. Intuition, you know?
It's never been so strong, so... Can you help me or not?
Of course I can. I'll help you.
I have a friend at the Federal Police, Afrânio.
He's also a detective.
I'll give you his number, you call him and say you're my friend, okay?
- I don't feel good doing this kind... - No, relax.
Afrânio will help you, okay?
I have stuff to do. Say hi to your Dad.
Say hi to everyone.
- I love you. - Love you too.
Doctor Henrique Silveira Couto,
I'm writing to make a confession.
I'm in love with Maria Eugênia, and I know she loves me too.
When you two were in Paris,
she and I fell in love and became lovers.
In our intimate moments, I found out that she wasn't pregnant.
She used a fake belly.
When you returned to Brazil,
I suffered a lot with the separation.
Since then, I decided to come see her in her country.
I came to Brazil because I wanted to rekindle our flame,
but she didn't want to
because of a boy she claims to be your son.
So,
your mother-in-law's lawyer came to see me
and threatened me saying that,
if I didn't stop interfering in Maria Eugênia's life,
they would press charges to the French police.
How could you?
How could you...
Don't you have anything to say?
Is this true?
Do you love this guy?
Of course not.
I've never loved Pierre.
He just wanted to blackmail me.
You can ask my mother or Bernardo.
So on top of everything...
Everyone knows.
What a cliché.
Honey, listen to me.
I love you.
I've always loved you.
At that time, I was frustrated, I was jealous.
I couldn't get the image of you with another woman out of my head.
I didn't cheat on you! You agreed with it, you knew...
You don't think it was enough to make me feel betrayed?
Was it revenge, then?
No.
It was weakness.
My love,
forgive me. I was frustrated, I...
I had been drinking. It was just one time.
You gave me the privilege of being a mother.
My family is everything to me. I can't live without you,
I don't want to live without you. I'm sorry. Forgive me.
No. Henrique, come back!
Henrique, listen to me!
I only asked if she had gone to London,
and you're giving me the full report.
A friend of Dr. Bernardo's deserves VIP treatment.
I'm not sure I wanted to know so much.
You know how it is. We investigate one thing,
and then we find out another...
and that's the result, you know?
- She spent a year at a farm? - Yeah.
And came back very rich.
New car and everything, you know? Imported car too...
Too much information for me.
Thank you anyway.
I'm at your service, if you need me.
Thank you. I've got your number.
I'll call you if I do.
Why don't you tell me the truth?
What do you mean?
Tell me the truth. Free yourself from the anguish you're feeling.
From the burden you've been carrying. From this lie.
I don't know what you're talking about.
You do know what I'm talking about.
You never went to London.
You never left the country.
Look at me.
You're not going to say anything?
No.
If one day you want to talk...
honestly,
you know where to find me.
I've never felt so miserable.
And the worst part is knowing I have my share of blame too.
We went too far. We went too far with a lie that...
Your wife accused you of cheating? Is that it?
Did you sleep with another woman?
I did, yes. But she knew everything. It's...
a complicated story.
But, in the end, it's my fault, I...
I underestimated the impact that it could have.
It's a long and complicated story, Rafael.
My job is to listen, my friend.
Not long before our son was born,
we had to spend a few months in Paris.
I had to work and...
Maria Eugênia spent a lot of time alone.
When I got home, I tried to make up for it, but...
I ended up exhausted.
I can't see my family disintegrate like that.
Try and talk to him.
- No, he won't listen. - Maria Eugênia,
you need to talk about you.
You need to open your heart. Tell him that you're suffering.
I'm gonna try.
- But I don't know if I have the courage. - You do have the courage.
Use it.
Come. I'm taking you to have a pass.
You'll feel better.
It was at one of those parties that she met this boho couple.
People who've never worked a day in their lives.
Pierre.
A guy that lived off his parents' inheritance.
She ended up falling into his trap and... cheated on me.
But there's another story before that.
A much more complex story.
As you know, my wife's family is very rich.
And my mother-in-law is very controlling.
She had me do something.
Something that...
Thank you.
God bless you...
sister.
I understand this situation was not easy for Maria Eugênia,
but she agreed. She knew everything.
It was the only reason I agreed too.
Are you saying all that happened at a farm?
- Yeah, a family property. - How long ago?
About two years ago.
- And that girl... Do you know her? - No.
It was very dark. I barely looked at her face.
But I know she was very well paid.
She even got a car.
A red Audi.
Are you okay?
Something wrong?
No, no... It's just...
a personal issue.
Uh...
Anyway, you and Maria Eugênia need to talk.
I don't know.
Hey.
How did you manage to hide this from me for such a long time?
I think that secrets
are something we know how to keep, right?
Sarcasm won't help us right now.
Sorry.
I just want us to be all right.
Dionísio needs both of us. And I really need you.
I...
I wanted to forget it all.
I love you, but when I think that you...
It's hard.
It wasn't easy for me either to think of you with a woman.
Why do you insist on that?
You got involved with that...
You know what?
Forget it. This argument will get us nowhere.
I want us to start from scratch.
Me too.
Talking to Rafael has done me a lot of good.
The center's been helping me too.
I believe we can get over this.
Me too.
I'm sorry, I...
I can't.
Not yet.
I'm leaving soon.
It's so weird here today.
Do we still have something to talk about?
Where did you spend a year?
You're no longer part of my life, Rafael.
I just want to help you.
But you can't help me.
Doctor.
I'm not here as a doctor, or a therapist.
I'm just here to help you.
I'd rather you leave.
I talked to Henrique.
Henrique who?
The one you're thinking of.
Maria Eugênia's husband.
- Oh, is he your patient? - Yes.
And you can talk about what your patients tell you?
No.
But, in this case, I decided to overlook all that.
I decided to take a risk, because I needed to talk to you.
Are you going to sleep here?
- No. - So...
Hey.
I know that you spent a year at a farm.
I don't know everything.
But I think you'll feel better if you talk about it.
I also know that I will have to find a way to love that lie.
Because I love you.
If I love your truths, I will have to love your lies too.
- I'm so ashamed of it. - I know. I know.
I know what Henrique has told me.
My wife's grandfather left a very strange will that...
honestly, never made sense to anybody.
He said that Maria Eugênia had to have a son.
Without an heir, the company's presidency would go to her uncle.
An alcoholic addicted to gambling.
To make things worse, my wife can't have children.
So Adele hired a woman who...
Who...
Anyway...
For the sake of confidentiality,
she couldn't get pregnant through artificial insemination.
They took me to a farm, but before there was a...
long screening process.
I remember being enthusiastic,
because I thought they were hiring me as a lawyer,
- which was my dream. - I understand.
But they weren't.
The last interview was with Adele,
the company's president.
We trust you.
Look, I don't know. I still have doubts.
This money will change your life.
We won't see each other anymore. Nobody will know.
And you will help save this company.
If it falls into the hands of my late husband's brother,
he will gamble it all away. Thousands will lose their jobs.
Ms. Marina.
Please.
My God, help me.
Maria Eugênia is infertile.
I know.
They hired me to have a son for her.
Five million.
And a car.
Imported.
It was all planned.
Is this your first time?
Yes.
That's it.
I sold my first time.
I sold my body.
Talk to me.
If you talk about it, you'll feel better...
I stayed...
I stayed at the farm for the whole pregnancy.
There was a lady...
who was very kind to me.
And she stayed there too.
Then...
As the due date approached,
a doctor, a friend of the family, showed up.
Help me!
Push.
Now I know what it's like to have a child.
I understood the strength of giving life.
And I turned him into a commodity.
I sold my son.
Eugênia.
I'm the woman who sold her own son for five million and a car.
You're much more than that.
You're an extraordinary daughter.
And I've...
I've been having dreams, you know?
The spirits tell me that I did what had to be done,
- but I can't understand it. - If they say so...
It's not like that, Rafael. It's not that easy to accept.
Only I know what I've been through.
- Only I know the pain I've felt. I... - You helped a lot of people.
In my dreams, there's a woman.
Her name is Norma.
In one of them, she took me
to another plane. A past life.
Maria Eugênia and I were friends.
I swear it's true. I saw it.
I believe you.
That bond was real, it's real, but...
We can't know what we're going through today.
There's no way.
That reminds me of a saying by Chico Xavier.
He says that communication is only one-way, from there to here.
When the time comes, you'll understand.
Because everything will work out.
Eunice.
They're all coming together.
Even if they try to avoid it, they will meet and turn that page.
You will help them to seize this opportunity to clarify everything.
And move on to new challenges.
I'm ready.
Today is an important day for everybody.
You will finally have the opportunity to understand
the difficulties that you are currently experiencing
in order to mend a past full of mistakes.
Will I free myself from this guilt?
Yes.
Give me your hand.
Maria Eugênia.
Maria.
My friend.
I missed you so much.
I've never been able to trust anybody else.
You've always been my best friend.
We've spent a lot of time together.
We are sisters for eternity.
The spiritual realm is giving us a chance for clarification.
So you can forgive one another
and free yourselves from the hatred and guilt
that has lasted for centuries.
Maria was forced to marry Gilberto against her will.
She couldn't bear the thought of having a child with her husband.
Are you sure I'll have an abortion?
I am. It never fails.
Maria and Dênis fell in love.
He was Gilberto's right-hand man.
Sofia, Dênis and I will run away tonight.
Maria!
If your husband finds out, he'll kill you both.
We'll go very far. He won't find us.
Be careful.
They lived in hiding for a long time.
Gilberto fed on his hatred and wanted revenge.
Until he found them.
Let me go! Let him go!
No!
Maria, inconsolable,
used her beauty and power of seduction
to attract and exploit men.
Always having abortions made possible by Sofia.
I didn't know what I was doing.
Maria Eugênia, the acquisition of consciousness is often painful.
However, it offers us the chance for growth and liberation.
Rafael and Marina, when you wake up, you'll have these memories.
What about me?
For now, this memory won't be good for you or Henrique.
Even if we don't remember this meeting,
I want to ask your forgiveness.
And tell you that I will love you.
Forever.
I've never had any doubts.
In this path of reincarnation,
Maria and Dênis agreed to come back together as mother and son.
Being, in this life, Maria Eugênia e Dionísio.
So that now they can experience the sublimation of love.
Now I understand why I couldn't have children.
The opportunity was given to Sofia, now you, Marina,
to conceive a child
and put him in your arms, Maria Eugênia,
since she had helped you perform so many abortions.
Please, forgive me.
I misjudged you.
So it was you, my friend...
you.
I never understood why I agreed to do that.
How did I do that?
But now everything makes sense.
Rafael was called Renan in past lives.
He was Sofia's great love.
He was committed to helping her
overcome past traumas
and face the challenges of the present.
Sofia fulfilled her promise.
A spirit that recognized her mistakes and corrected them.
Bringing happiness to a lot of people.
The universe has a plan.
Everything is fine.
- Hi, nice to meet you. - Likewise. I'm Maria Eugênia, how are you?
- Nice to meet you, I'm Marina. - It's a pleasure.
I've seen you before.
Really?
I can't remember.
The center for spiritual studies.
Of course. Yes, that's it.
Thank you for that pass. It was wonderful.
Thanks to you too. It's always an exchange, right?
Here she is.
My mother. Marina, Rafael.
- How are you? - Dr. Bernardo.
- How are you, Rafael? - I'm fine.
- It's a pleasure. - Pleasure, Marina.
Nice to meet you, Marina.
My daughter needs new friends.
My mother thinks she knows what I need.
Mine is also sure of that.
- Mothers, right? - It's their thing.
Rafael.
Marina, my fiancé.
- Nice to meet you. - Likewise, Marina.
- I'm so glad you came. - Of course.
Rafael has helped me a lot.
With very important things.
I made a good friend.
Yeah, when we met, he also promised
- that he was going to be my friend. - I know.
And I believed him.
- May I steal your fiancé a little bit? - Yes, of course.
Come with me, I wanna show you something.
- Excuse me. - Please.
- Adele, let's go? - Already?
- Yes, honey. - See you.
Nice meeting you, Marina.
You'll be great friends.
- Bye, beautiful. - Bye, Mom.
- Bye. - Bye.
Your house is beautiful. Congratulations.
Thank you.
Just give me a moment. I have to take this, it's for Dionísio's party.
I'll be back. Just a sec, okay? Hello?
Speaking.
Yes.
Hi.
Come here.
You are beautiful.
You're so perfect. Oh, we're sleepy!
How beautiful you are!
Yeah.
You're beautiful. Yes.
What is it?
Hello, my love.
- Oh, I'm sorry. - No, stay there.
He's so comfortable with you.
He's not usually like that when I'm around.
- Are you all right? - Yes.
I'm just a bit emotional.
He's beautiful, isn't he?
Yes.
He's very beautiful.
May you fulfill your mission. The reason you're here.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
