[Kadu] I already talked to Carmen, she's coming.

[Diogo] Kadu, I tried to call you like, ten times,

you didn't answer so I went to Genaro's house.

[Kadu] How did you know I was there?

[Diogo] I'll explain everything.

I just wanted to keep you from going after the pastor.

[Kadu] That was an execution, man.

It was not attempted robbery.

What if it was not Genaro they wanted to kill, man.

Good morning!

We've done all we could,

there were many complications. - But what about him, doctor?

He shows small reactions, we have to wait.

Small... but do you think he can react more?

He might.

We did everything that could be done at the moment,

within his condition.

Excuse me.

What does he mean by small reactions?

Calm down, Carmen. - What does he mean by that?

I need to talk to Genaro. - Calm down, it's okay.

That will splash on Kadu.

The last few days he was already halfway off,

now, after this.

His head is full.

Good morning. - Good morning.

[Roni] Jair and Kadu went to the hospital,

Do you know about anything? - No.

[Roni] The TV said it was attempted robbery.

[Diogo] Attempted robbery my ass!

Roni, can we talk out there? - Of course!

Tonho? - Yeah.

Why do you want to know?

I'll explain later.

I need to know where he is.

I didn't even know you knew Tonho.

I do.

You don't think he's involved with that.

I'm not thinking anything,

[Flávia] The proposal is simple and straightforward,

you put me in contact with the girl

and I'll tell Sangaletti

to get you a position as technical assistant

in some category.

It's not going to happen, Flávia,

it really isn't going to.

I even wanted a job like that.

If it paid well, of course,

to get a job.

So, what's the difference, Cedenir?

I've already asked Kadu for this job several times.

He didn't care, he didn't do anything.

Now a question,

are you so close to that president

to get me this job?

That's my problem!

You know how your mother called this sweet?

She used to say that...

at the beginning of the last century, 20th century,

a Swedish king named Alberto visited Brazil,

and was hopelessly in love with this sweet,

to suck up to king Alberto,

they named the sweet King Alberto.

And your mom agreed.

Fuck this king, uncle,

but this sweet is really good.- Isn't it?

Mhmm. Uncle,

how did you know

I liked this sweet when I was a kid?

Because I've paid attention to you since you were little.

Uncle, tell me one thing,

I already know your story,

I already know my aunt left and bailed on you,

your disappointment with soccer, but...

but today, uncle,

don't you think of doing something, like...

do not get me wrong, uncle, but...

it seems like you have already gave up, you know.

And you're fine, you're alive, full of gas.

Why do you think I...

insist so much for you to start over,

for you to regain that will to play soccer?

It's precisely to avoid this,

which they call "the worst."

The worst.

So I don't become a Cedenir,

So you don't give up, Kadu.

Don't give up,

because after you do

it's over, there's no return.

You have to avoid it any way you can,

because it's only once.

It's only once!

There's no way.

And it's something that is not very clear in your mind,

it is something that, it is a feeling, you know.

A feeling that you are living out of obligation.
