Come on, beauty. Come!

Master Solito, drink sorcerer, as my Dad would say.

How are you Boss? What's it gonna be today?

Nothing, you know I don't drink on the job, right?

Solito... Wasn't there a Skunk's goalkeeper with that name?

Yep, long time ago. And his brother too, Solitinho.

Solitinho...

Look at this beauty: Caligula!

Six months and thirty kilos already!

Go on, you beauty!

I had another rottweiler like this one too. Nero.

Nero loved eating thief meat.

They say that kind of meat is good for the animal's health.

Gee, look at that! Caligula sniffing around...

Catching the smell of monkey business, Caligula?

So, Solito, how's the Bingo doing?

- It's slowed down lately, you know? - Has it?

Mayl?

Of course! Be at home.

In some ways, I already am, right?

Sit down...

So, Solito, tell me about this sudden fall in bets.

What's everyone doing here if they're not betting? They are playing...

Right, they're playing, but not like they used to, understand?

Cause there's this new videogame and...

Shut up, fuck!

When one speaks, the other lowers the ears. I'm talking here!

Rocky, tell what you found out.

Apparently Solito found a way of breaking into the safe.

- Me? I don't... - Sit!

Solito, let me explain how my company works.

My company is based on trust. A gent|emen's agreement.

But to bear fruits, I have alternative tools because words alone is not very...

- Professional. - Right, professional!

So, I've put a few extra counters in those machines

and the counters here are telling me that you, you son of a bitch

you're cutting off thirty percent of it.

Me? There must be some mistake...

Rocky, let's give Solito a chance.

Take Caligula and bring in who's been waiting.

Please go home, folks.

Go rest, go do your wives, okay?

You don't even have to pay. It's on me.

Come on, Babyface. Hold up. I'm not cutting anything off...

Herodes and Salomeh. Awesome, aren't they?

Yes, they're beautiful.

Beautiful my ass. They're awesome!

I think you need to take a closer look.

IN DOG'S WORDS

9 MONTHS BEFORE. ZOONOSIS CONTROL DIVISION

Let's go, Santana. We got another dog waiting for us.

- Thank God you've arrived. - Where is the animal?

Over there, in the back. It's huge.

Holy shit, it's a rottie, brother.

- You go that way. - I got you. Cool.

Catch him. Go!

Not relieve.

Drop m

Damn it! Santana! Help me out!

Go to the other side. I'll push him to you.

Let's go. Beware that this dog is the devil.

Got him, Santana.

Come on, man.

That son of a bitch ripped my pants. Brand new ones...

We should've killed it right there, instead of taking it to the Zoonosis.

Here comes the Vindicator.

The world is too politically correct.

I'll say: got a mean dog? Call Bruce Willis and that's it.

Got a bad guy in the slums? Bam! That's it. No need for verdict.

The prisons would be much emptier.

Do you know how much those prisoners cost us?

How much?

No idea. But it's a lot of cash. Enough to pay my bills.

Come on, Ramiro. I totally disagree.

Government can't just go around killing people, he has to lead by example.

Otherwise it's the Wild West again.

Isn't it already?

Yeah, ok, but... the government can't become criminals.

Sure there's dirt in the system. But there's also the justice...

- Oh no, justice? - Yes, justice!

Rich judges, with their armored cars, paid holidays, retirement plans and all

and you think he's going to think about you? Fuck that, man!

Yeah, Mutt... Ramiros's got a point.

See?

I'm my own justice, man.

Someone screws me over, I'll take care of him myself!

Ramiro, you're not an animal, man.

We're different from the dogs we catch on the streets. We can talk!

I have to go with Mutt on that one, Ramiro.

Santana, what's your deal. Who's side are you on?

And we can think, too.

And we don't go smelling each other assholes when we meet, right?

Except for that vet's ass, everyone wants to have a sniff, right?

Cintra! Give us a hand. We grabbed a spectacular dog.

Check it out. Ramiro's new fashion: air-conditioned pants!

Shut up! Look at the beast. It must weight 200 kilos.

Not to mention the drooling.

Look at the size of its head. It looks like a pressure cooker.

Imagine how much it eats!

Imagine how much it shits! It's gonna drown my kennel.

The owner will show up soon. Expensive dogs never stay too long.

- Hold it! - Damn it, Santana!

You should have put a muzzle on it!

Careful there, careful.

Slow down, guys, you're gonna hurt the dog.

Let's eat, dinner!

That's my boy. Whoa!

And off he goes... Come on, hold it, hold on.

Aren't those your old shorts?

Sweetheart, you're not wearing those anymore. Look at me!

You are not to use it. They're scandalously tight.

Don't even think about it. You're going to sit and eat with us.

And give thanks to God for your food.

Lord, we thank you for this meal and for the family united.

May l?

Calm down, man. There's more food in the pan.

Santana!

Huh, me? What?

Can you help our daughter so the kids can go to bed earlier?

Can I see the panties?

What for?

Well, I want to know what the rich women are wearing these days...

Holy cow, Dilza. These are huge.

They look like China's basketball uniform.

You got to go with low-cuts. More skinny.

They're seamless and comfortable. I'm not selling for hookers.

I mean... think about it, a Pentecostal selling underwear?

So, Pentecostals don't wear panties?

Picture a town of Pentecostals. There would be no panty store there?

An all-Pentecostal-town... God help me!

Thank you, Las Vegas.

No,no,no.

Go, kick it off again.

I can feel it this time.

No, no, no! Here comes the goal!

I want to see you beat me out there.

You couldn't beat me in a real match.

Dad?

When are you taking me to the stadium?

I guess this stadium thing is dangerous.

We can go when Corinthians plays a small team. It's a lot safer, then.

Dad, why did you sad Corinthians? I want to see Palmeiras playing.

What? Palmeiras? No son of mine is a "green pig"!

Corinthians is what's up man! A real team, pure heart.

You got to cheer for your old man's team.

Foul!

Yellow card? Should be red! You only make serious fouls!

Santana, you're not taking him to either: Corinthians or Palmeiras.

I'm gonna score this one with a curved ball. Heads up, "black skunk"!

Come on, in the goal...

Goal! 6 to 1 for the "green pigs"!

I can't believe it! Yeah...

Watch the replay. What a goal!

6 to 1! You suck, "black skunk"...

I'm gonna play drum for a while.

Good night, son.

Good night, mummy. Dad was going to sing to me...

I'm the one singing tonight. Which one do you prefer?

Never mind. Dad says you're so out of tune, you'll ruin my ears.

Sleep tight.

- Did they sleep? - Almost.

Weren't you going to put cement over that lid?

Forgot. I'll get it done this week.

Please Santana. What if somebody falls inside?

Isaura told me her friends are going to a bar on Friday night.

She wants to go with them.

And?

And... Are we allowing this?

What's the point in saying no?

From my experience, the stricter the dad gets, sluttier the girl becomes.

Right?

No point in locking her up.

We have to let her go...

But we need to keep a close eye on her.

Does she know how to use a condom?

She's fifteen years old!

Almost sixteen.

She's got breasts, a waist...

She probably has hair on her...

Can we change the subject?

Men are easier. Joéo won't be such hard work.

I have to do the opposite with him. Too much of a saint.

You should play ball with him. He's always asking and you never go.

I'll play with him this weekend.

My knee is like a quicksilver!

Cintra, how can you sleep with this noise... give me a hand!

Do it, damn!

Tie him up, aren't you man enough?

You're taking the quick-shot.

What's up, maestro? Give me a hand.

Time to put him down already?

It's been three days, man.

Just putting this muzzle almost cost me a hand.

Another one?

I thought we called it a day.

Last one, Doc.

6O kilos.

Holy shit! It's gonna take a gallon of poison.

I don't get it. If it's gonna die anyway, why the anesthetics?

You can clean up now.

I need to make a quick visit to admin.

Yep, another one gone to heaven.

This one went to hell.

No, animals always go to heaven. It's the owner who spoils the animal.

Three days my ass. Where's my dog?

It's the law. If the owner does not show up in three days...

It took three days to find this shit-hole. Where's my dog?

After three days, the City Hall say we have to put down the animal.

You're the animal. The owner of the dog is here, damn it!

- Let it go, Babyface. Let's get out. - Rocky, I want my dog!

Is it the Rottweiler?

Look, buddy. Your dog was put down.

What the fuck?

Damn, you killed my dog!

Get off man! Where's my dog?

Let me him through...

Fuck... My Nero. You killed my Nero, damn it!

- City Hall tell us to... - Their job was to make sewers...

and fight diseases! Not kill my dog!

Buddy, the dog was a threat. He was loose in a school.

He was trained. More schooled than you! He even understood German.

Unfortunately he only barked when we asked about his owner in Portuguese.

Oh, Fuck this! The guy kidnaps my dog and now he's making jokes.

There was no kidnaping here. The dog was loose...

Can you read?

Look here: You even ask for ransom!

This is really fucked.

He lets a dog that size go loose and we're the ones to blame?

- This is on you, sir. - Calm down Santana.

Hold on... What's your name?

It's Santana! Antonio Santana!

So Santana... I think you're doing a lot of explaining here.

It was you, wasn't it? You're too defensive. You killed him!

I don't need to defend myself. The law is with me. After three days...

The guy is gonna start talking about law, Rocky!

What's your name again?

Santana sir. Or are you deaf as well as irresponsible?

You kill my dog and call me deaf?

Sir watch out now...

What if I slap your ears? Who'll be the deaf one?

- You are crossing the line, sir. - What if I want to cross it?

Go right ahead! I'm used to animals here.

Who's the animal here, huh?

Calm down man...

I think you're right. I might really be going deaf.

Calm down man...

Say it...

Go on, say it again. Who's the animal here?

- I have a family, man... - This is gonna get ugly.

Don't lose it over this guy, come on.

Listen to me, come on...

- Go get Nero, Rocky. - It's dead. Leave it there.

Don't argue. Get my dog.

- What are you going to... - Get the fucking dog!

Antonio Santana, right?

Babyface, shouldn't we avoid the gunshots? The noise could call for attention...

Call who's attention? Who gives a fuck?

I want Nero to have a burial like they do in the movies.

A soldier burial, that's what he was.

Shall we?

Wow, lsaura is all grown up, isn't she?

She's gonna be a handful...

Don't tell me about it.

Look, new collection.

Check it out.

Aren't they kinda big? My husband prefers thongs, you know?

This is the latest fashion, more well-behaved.

You know, UFC style? Seamless under your clothes.

It's what the celebrities are using.

That is when they actually wear something...

- How much are they? - $20 each.

They'll be at least $50 at the stores.

I'll take three.

But my husband won't like them, I won't wear them around him...

- Wear for someone else, then. - Dilza!

Ten Hail Mary's for that!

Pentecostals don't pray the Hail Mary, Laide.

Rute, how do you want to pay? Want to split the payment?

Dad, let's go play ball in the square?

Eh...You know...

not today, I'm washing the car.

Come on Dad, you promised.

Your old man's knee isn't doing to well, you see?

- Next time, ok? - Ok, bye.

Bye son.

- Careful on the street. - Okay...

He kicks. Dribbles... Go on, Joéo...

Joéo catches the ball...

Go! Go! He takes the shot...

Go, Go, Go... Let's Go!

- And when did he go missing? - Today.

He never came back for lunch.

- Today ? - Yes.

He always comes straight home. But not today.

And you checked with relatives, with friends?

Everywhere. He's nowhere to be found.

How long has it been, four hours?

- More or less. - Around that.

It's too son.

We can only register a report after at least 24 hours. Those are the rules.

What do you mean?

Most missing kids just go out to play without telling their parents.

If we went after all of them, the police couldn't do anything else.

No, he never does that. In his case there's no need to wait.

I'm sorry. Those are the police rules. My hands are tied.

Is he being serious?

Are you being serious?

Take a look around.

Robberies, homicides. Important stuff.

Your son will show up...

Isn't my son important?

You're crossing the line, sir.

Next!

...has been too expensive, Babyface. It's been eating our profits.

- Look at last month's numbers... - Geez, you're a pain in the ass.

If you weren't honest I'd have gotten rid of you.

I hate accountants.

Wand, take a look at that beauty.

Look!

Look at those fangs. He's a shark, ain't he?

Wanna come inside?

I'm fine here.

Don't worry, man. He's trained.

Come in!

Shit, Babyface... What's going on?

Quiet! (in German)

Are you stealing from me?

You think I'm crazy to steal from you?

Tell me Salomeh, ls Wand a stealer?

Leave him alone, man. He is scared of dogs.

I know.

Fine Wand, you can come out.

If Salomeh trusts you, so do I.

Dogs have a sixth sense when it comes for assholes.

- What? - We have the dogcatcher's kid.

Are you sure you'll get rid of him?

No. I'm gonna have some fun before we do.

The kid is gonna be locked up just like my dog was.

In three days we'll put an end to this.

Come here.

So, Mutt. Anything?

Nothing, Santana.

Let's circle back around the square.

Haven't you been there already?

We'll do it again anyway.

Ok. I'm going to keep looking here, Ok?

We'll find him, Santana.

Thanks.

Stop! Stop, Santana.

What's up? Everything cool?

Damn, you're a Palmeiras fan?

I'll ask again. That jersey... Are you a Palmeiras fan?

Yes...

Well, I got stuff to do.

- Good morning. - Morning

My son went missing yesterday. His name is Joao Santana...

You have no idea what I'm going through.

I can't wait 24 hours! My son never slept away from home...

Calm down ma'am. The boy hasn't show up yet?

Right.

Since you insist, I'll open an exception and register a report.

But the boy will show up...

Your number.

Have a seat right there and wait to be called.

FORENSIC MEDICAL INSTITUT

Colorful T-shirt. Height?

More or less this tall.

I'm gonna say 1 meter 30...

Anything else?

What do you think? Will he show up?

Oh, they always do. I bet he'll be home when you get there.

How does it work? You guys...

Excuse me, ma'am... You will start looking today?

Hello. Lucas, I'm going to cover the bill. I?! pay...

FORENSIC MEDICAL INSTITUT

Well... It's good he's not here, right?

Yeah,for sure...

Yeah, It gives me hope...

You can go now, Mr. Santana. If there's any news, I'll call you.

Thanks. Butl hope I never hear from you.

I hope so.

Your report.

Good luck.

In your honor, look, I'll even play like this.

What the fuck is this?

|t's gonna start, Babyface.

Come on...

- Three? - Five!

Here boss.

Sit and watch the game with us.

May l?

Sit down man.

Come on!

Can I ask you a question?

You mean, other than this one?

Now I'm curious to hear what it is...

That guy who keeps talking, can the other's team coach hear him?

You mean... The commentator?

Yeah, the guy who's always giving tips.

Shit man. No, only the people at home can hear him.

You've never been to a football game, at the stadium?

No.

My mother doesn't like the idea. She thinks it's too dangerous.

So... The streets, schools and buses aren't dangerous, but the stadium is!?

She says it is.

- And your asshole of a Dad, says what? - You know my Dad?

- No, I don't. - Oh, he keeps promising.

He says he won't take me to a Palmeiras game.

He's a Corinthians fan.

Of course! A "black skunk".

But you saved yourself, right? You're a "green pig"!

I'm a pig! I hate showers.

Let's join in prayer...

...and beg that God powerfully blesses Joao Santana...

...a child from our congregation.

And that the evil spirit that invaded this family's home be implacably defeated!

-Amen? -Amen!

Go inside, kid.

This here is Herod.

Have you ever seen a dog this big?

He won't bite you. Only if I tell him to.

He's trained. Uses a fork and knife to eat!

Really?

Dogs know when we like them, don't they?

I don't just like... I love them!

Sometimes it even feels bad, that's how much I love them.

I lost a dog recently.

That's bad, isn't?

It is. But we still love them.

Just like Palmeiras?

Yeah, that's right. Like Palmeiras.

We suffer but love it.

Sit down.

You have dogs?

No. I'd like to have a big one like this.

But to own a big dog you need to have a backyard. Do you have one?

Backyard isn't the problem.

Thing is my dad won't let me have one.

This Dad of yours is really an asshole, isn't he?

Are you sure you don't know my Dad?

MISSING

Tastes good, Dilza.

Vegetables are healthy. Did you eat already?

I'll hang some posters tomorrow...

Where's him, my God? Where's my son?

It's been three days...

Mrs. Dilza Santana?

This way, Mrs. Dilza.

Please, Mrs. Dilza.

Courage.

Is it your son?

It's not him.

It's not my son. It's not Joéo.

Did you see the girl that was with me just now?

She left.

Can you see that, my man? This confusion?

Feel the vibe!

A Palmeiras game is something every "green pig"

should go to before they die.

Pay attention. You see all this people?

So heads up, 'cause if you run,

Rocky will go to that shit hole where you live

and he kills your Mom, your Dad, bird,

snail, whatever breathes over there.

- I won't run. - You better not, huh?

- I wanna go home. - We're here to watch Palmeiras!

Wouldn't it be wiser if I stayed with you, Boss?

Rocky, when I'm having fun, I like to play solo, no one on my back.

l only asked to be sure, Boss.

Come on!

Ole! "Green Pigs"!!!

You can't see this on TV. See?

Ole! "Green Pigs"! Ole! "Green Pigs"!

Shit! Motherfucker! Fucking shit...

Damned goalkeeper! Asshole!

Come on, damn it!

Ole!"Green Pigs"! Ole!"Green Pigs"!

GooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaI!

Pa|meiras!!!! Pa|meiras!!!!

Babyface!?

Babyface!?

Babyface!?

Babyface!?

Babyface!?

Man,you disappeared...

I told you I was going to get a beer. Didn't you hear me?

I got distracted.

I liked that you sat here and waited.

Everything will work out just fine.

Joéo?

Thank's god.

Ok, I'm gonna write it down.

$5000...

...$5000 and 23?

Ok, right, I'll get it.

Two days?

Ok, no problem, I'll get it.

Yes.

I know where that is, right.

Ok, I'll go alone, sure.

No, I won't, no way. Right.

$5023. That's fine. Can I please...?

Son!

Oh,my son!

Where's Mom?

Where's she?

- I don't want to. - Only a little. Sit down.

Want to pray?

Father, bless my family here and my mother...

...who's in heaven.

Amen.

You're on vacation, right?

Why don't you invite a friend over to play?

No Dad. I'd rather be alone.

Right.

Fucking hell!

Huh? What's wrong?

Ok, Ok. Joéo, get to bed, son.

You too, Isaura.

Ten past ten, time for kids to be in bed.

Isaura, pretend you're a kid and go to bed as well.

I know. I'll fix it.

Isaura! Came for a new hairstyle?

It's good you brought Joéo. Makes things easier.

How are things at home?

Better right? Your mother was such a wonderful lady.

It's been, what...? A year? A year?

- Nine months? - Too soon...

And Dilza took care of the house and sewed panties.

Making panties used to be good business.

But now, with the Chinese taking over...

Are you also making panties, Isaura?

Bring them over!

Look, what a beautiful piece.

How much?

25'?

No, look... the seams are really bad.

She's saying she hasn't got the hang of the machine yet.

- She'll give you a discount. - She will, huh?

Laide, look! Isn't it a beauty?

- It's my husband's style. - It's a higher cut.

What about this one?

- You think it rides up your bum? - If you got one.

Hold this for me, Joéo. Hold it, boy!

This one is high-cut in the front.

You have to get a Brazilian to use this.

Show me all you have.

Sunny as hell and I thought

I'm gonna get my missus, head over to the park, have a hot-dog

Perfect Sunday, right?

Now ask me if I relaxed at the park, man? No, dude. It was packed.

So many people you couldn't catch a glimpse of grass, man.

When the sun comes out, everyone heads to the parks.

Or the mall.

That's Sao Paulo.

S510 Paulo? I saw people from everywhere except Sao Paulo.

Just people from abroad! And truckloads too.

You know how it is. The guy comes over to work

on his day off, he puts on his

Corinthians shirt and goes to the park.

They come from nowhere to cheer for the "Skunks"?

They should cheer for the "green pigs" that are in need.

See! I told you? Green pig!

Shit, Santana, did you see who that was?

- No. - The rottweiler guy. Remember?

It's him. Stop the car! Stop the car, Mutt.

Calm down. What's going on?

It's him.

He's friends with cops. Damn. No wonder he was armed.

Remember the dog kidnapping talk? That we wanted ranson? Let's go...

Mutt?

How much is the fine they charge over

at the Zoonosis to let the animals go?

3O bucks... No, it's 23!

$5.023. Son of a bitch! What a son of a bitch!!!

Calm down, Santana.

Let's go...

Master Solito, drink sorcerer as my Dad would say.

Come on, Babyface. Hold up. I'm not cutting anything off...

Herodes and Salomeh.

Isaura, aren't these shorts your Mom prohibited?

You know what I'm saying!

Those shorts have to go in the garbage!

No, don't take them off now!

And don't be rude to me either!

Where's your brother?

Joéo? Son?

Joéo isn't here.

Joéo? Joéo?

Cida? Cida?

- What's wrong, Santana? - Have you seen Joao?

- No, isn't he with Isaura? - No, he's disappeared!

Where's that boy?

He's not here.

Oh God...

My boy...

Son...

Pedrinho, when you get to Peruibe ask them to call me.

Don't worry, Santana. We'll be there in two hours.

Thanks. They couldn't handle being cooped inside. Vacation...

Laura loves them, man.

- Why don't you come with us? - I have work to do on Monday.

Take care of them for me.

Hey, don't forget to brush your teeth, huh?

And take your medicine, okay?

- You got it, dude. - Let's go to the beach!

Don't start Isaura. You're going with your brother.

Don't argue with me. Later... We'll talk later.

Seat belt on. The seat belt!

What's up, Santana?

Santana, right? Piece of shit who killed my dog.

Are you searching me?

You got it.

Get out and no sudden movements.

Move!

Quiet, Caligula.

My house is right over there, let's go.

I'm glad you came to visit.

I want to introduce my dogs, they're gonna love meeting you.

You also have insomnia?

It's a shitty thing. But walking helps.

Caligula here, right Caligula?...

He loves walking in the middle of the night.

He's like Nero in that way.

Hey boy. Thirsty, huh?

If you get thirsty, there's your water.

You can reach it if you stretch.

What the fuck is this? Let me go, damn it!

You killed my wife.

You locked up my boy in a dark room.

Same thing here, man. This is my room!

What the fuck?

I've never seen your wife! You got the wrong guy!

If you get hungry, that's your food.

Damn it...

I let your son go.

I let him go!

It's good stuff. For adult dogs.

You're fucked up!

I know half of the police.

They gonna show up shooting everything down.

Do you remember you said the Zoonosis was the ass-end of space?

Here's a half hour drive after the ass-end.

The cops will never find you here.

Speaking of asses...

This bucket is your toilet.

You're going to be locked up for three days.

Where are you going?

Wait, let me go! Let me go!

Let me go!

Won't you eat, son of a whore?

Fuck, Santana. I didn't do anything.

I'm a human being, just like you.

You're treating me worse than a dog. Let me go...

- You're eating this. - I'd rather starve to death.

I'll shoot you in the mouth, so you can eat this. Eat it!

With that gun?

- It's my piece, ain't it? - Yes.

It's locked.

It's harder to kill with a locked gun.

How're you gonna do it? Whip me to death?

It might work, but it's gonna be messy.

Come on, Santana.

Have you seen a man dying from shot injuries?

I've seen. A lot.

Some of them I did it myself.

You probably seen gunshot victims at funerals, right?

Clean body, smelling flowers

That's easy, dude.

But the real thing is fucked up.

Killing is fucked up.

Not only pressing the trigger

but looking in the eyes of the loser.

You don't have the guts to shoot me

and it will take me a long time to starve.

I didn't have the guts to kidnap you and there you are.

- People change. - What the fuck, then?

I just took the kid and gave him back.

Took him to the Greens game!

What's the big deal? Money?

The ranson money? Let me go and I'll give it back.

- Five grand, I'll give it back... - And 23 !!!

That was smooth, right?

Come on, that was an elegant idea.

Shut up. You're dying in here!

You're quivering with fear.

Let's be done now, while no one is hurt.

Hurt? You'd just come back here

and kill my son, me and my daughter.

You got a daughter, right?

A hot one?

Son of a bitch!

Fuck!

You slapped me? Slapped?

You're not a black skunk, you're a pink one. Punch me like a man!

You die. I kill you. That's the deal.

Right. I'll be here to see it.

Loser.

What are you doing here?

Why are you back? Was it the rain?

And your brother?

You should be taking care of him.

I don't need to be taken care of. Know your place, Isaura!

Following an anonymous tip, cops found late this afternoon

in a clandestine workshop mounting slot machines

five corpses riddled with bullets.

Among the dead, was Dorival da Silva, aka Rocky.

A cop who was being investigated by the internal Affairs Dept.

Dorival was considered the main henchmen to

Paulo de Almeida, aka Babyface. He's an ex-cop turned gambling businessman

who seems to be also missing for several days.

The police hypotesis is that Rocky might have perished

on a turf dispute, since their rivals might have kidnapped his boss.

That's how I do things. Right on, bro!

I was wondering the score of the Corinthian's game...

Corinthians.

Santana!

I'm out of water!

I'm thirsty. Is this how you wanna kill me, you fagot?!

I'm thirsty!

I'm out of water!

May be you can help me.

Caligula?!

Come back. I won't do anything!

I'm locked up.

What's your name?

You're too quiet.

A pretty girl like you gotta have a nice voice.

Damn... You're a mute.

Deaf-Mute?

And how can you get what I'm saying?

That lip-reading thing?

Wow, cool.

So, to understand me you need to look at my mouth, right?

Let me tell you, when I'm partying... partying...

And the girl keeps staring at my mouth

like that, I don't waste any time.

I cover the girl in kisses.

I'm kidding, sorry.

Do you study?

High school?

College?

College? Already?

How old are you, sixteen?

Eighteen?

Eighteen already, huh?

Boyfriend? Do you have one?

You do, huh?

And, is he a good kisser?

Does he...

I'm kidding. I'm kidding, sorry...

Isaura ?

Do not go in there. Under any circumstances. Get it?

I don't want you anywhere near that motherfucker. Do you understand?!

I did. I locked him up. That's the guy who took your brother.

Yes, Joéo!

Of course he's dangerous. He kidnapped your brother.

Escape? No! He isn't going anywhere.

He's tied up, drilled into the wall. He's not escaping.

I have a plan. He won't be here for long. I'll handle it.

Police? What do you mean with police?

Sure, police. He'd go to prison and lawyers get involved.

Your honor here, your honor there...

They let the guy go and now he'll know where we live.

I'll fix it. He won't be here for long. I'll handle it.

It's none of your business, Isaura!

Honey?

Honey?

Son of a bitch.

Sweetheart.

I want you to go back to the beach and stay with you brother.

I'll take care of it today. I'll handle it.

I'll take care of it, Isaura!

No, I'm not letting him go.

It doesn't matter if I'm letting him go, if he's escaping...

It doesn't matter. He won't be here tomorrow.

Of course I'm not a criminal. He's the criminal.

I'll handle it, I told you.

I'm gonna call Mutt. He'll take you in my car.

Go pack your things.

Go!

Go!

Caligula?

Isaura?! Isaura?!

The dog's drooling too much. I think he's sick.

I'm taking him to the vet. We'll call Mutt on the way.

Ok? Let's go! Get ready!

No. You're not staying here alone. I said no!

Ok. You can stay at Cida's. Go on! Help me lock up the house.

Come on!

To the neighbor's. I'll be back soon.

Hi Isaura.

Back to pick up our date where we left off?

It's a shame I'm all tied up like this, huh?

Because the best part of dates is hooking up.

ME LET GO, YOU LEAVE?

Of course. I'll leave if you let me go.

I will, I promise I'll leave and never come back.

Unless you want me to catch a movie, go for a drink.

SURE?

Sure. I just want to carry on with my life.

Let me go. I'll even kiss you if you let me go.

You'd like a kiss, wouldn't you?

Have you ever kissed someone?

Cause I think you're always staring at people's mouths

but you haven't figured out yet that mouths are for kissing, right?

Mute people kiss too, don't they?

You got tongues.

Give me a kiss.

Come on girl. What's the big deal?

Kiss me.

What are you doing?

Wait, where are you going?

No, please. Don't let me die here, beauty.

Don't let me die here.

That's right, cut it off, let me go. Here.

You're doing the right thing.

Let me go.

- Here, take it home. -What for?

To replace what the dog ate.

Antacid, Santana.

Your dog ate antacids.

He was heartburn?

Twelve years working here and you still don't know the basics?

Did he grab it in the bathroom or in the drugstore?

- Isaura! - Hold on, hey!

That's right, girl.

You're doing the right thing.

I'll disappear

and your Dad will never see my face again.

You have my word.

Hey, my boy!

Come on Pele! Badass dog!

Get out!
