Listen up!

This is a story About not giving up

Because a true wise guy Never quits

Mind made up One way or another

Unbreakable body Like any caboclo

And it doesn't matter whether it's night or day

Because a lowlite with style ls always in tashion

What happened Was kinda like this

What l'm telling you ls what she told me

Wanna come up? She told me

Wanna stay over? She told me

Take it easy, now She told me

For love or tor toolishness ls what she told me

Then l said, does it matter

With good intentions And good disposition

And a chat With no chit-chat

lt the intention is the same Tell me, what's the hurry?

l said l like this She said ''me too''

l said l like that She said ''me too''

lt's as it we Already knew each other

lt's getting hot and heavy Just watch it, man

Then it was a wine glass No problem at all

A tape on the stereo And roll another one

At first, it's the same old story

l'm not like that l'm not like that

Everybody's in the red Brother, that's that

A lot ot passion, not a lot ot commitment

l say something silly and she smiled at me

Because what happened Was a little like this

PRETTY, BUT ORDlNARY

You're up high, l'm up high, lt's time to come clean.

To tell it all.

l'm gonna asl another question.

Are you ambitious, do you want to move up?

Am l ambitious? A lot, man !

Do you lnow a guy named Otto?

-Otto Lara Resende? -The goldsmith?

-l don't lnow what that is! -He worls with gold.

No, man, Otto writes, l mean, he's dead.

He was from Minas Gerais, a journalist.

Otto is the greatest, man.

And Otto has a quote that l consider excellent.

Listen up.

He said: ''Mineiro is compassionate in cancer''.

What do you thinl?

''Mineiro is compassionate in cancer.'' lt's a jole.

That's the thing, Dr. Peixoto, it's no jole!

First time l heard it, l found it funny, laughed and all...

but then came the reaction, that stayed with me...

l can't thinl of anything else. My word of honor, buddy.

-lt's a quote, man ! -A quote?

But a quote that penetrated me...

that is eating me up inside, it's a rodent quote!

You follow? A quote...

-What's behind the quote? -Olay, what?

lt's not the mineiro, not just the mineiro...

lt's man, it's the human being.

Me, you, anyone... We're just compassionate in cancer, see?

-So what? -So what?

Why have moralisms if man is only compassionate in cancer?

l want to win, boy. l want to move up.

Yeah !

Now, out of curiosity.

-What would you do to get rich? -Anything!

Dr. Peixoto, with Otto's quote with me, l have no flag.

And what's more, l'm the son of a man...

l'll tell you.

My dad, my old man here...

my old man, when he died...

they had to asl for money. Pony up for the funeral, get it?

You're laughing?

The quote Otto taught me.

Now, l want a coffin with that glass, you lnow?

Funeral with style, mausoleum, everything!

l'm not meant for a shallow grave!

l'm not meant for a shallow grave!

Say it.

Now you gotta say it.

What do you want from me?

Boy, it's simple. You won't lill anyone.

-No? -You'll just get married.

Just get married.

So who's the lucly lady?

The lucly lady? A millionaire. Best family in Brazil.

Yeah? Dr. Peixoto, l'm brole, l'm a piece of shit. l hang up.

Yes, that's true, but doesn't matter.

You hear me? A mineiro is only compassionate in cancer, right?

-Only in cancer! -So leave it to me.

You come in with sex, and the girl with the money.

Lool, beautiful, man ! And such a pretty thing!

l'm in. l'll marry right now. l'll do it!

Well, rich women are the only clean women !

With style!

-A mineiro is only compassionate in cancer. -Exactly, my boy!

-So, you... -That's silly.

No, absolutely, because it is silly.

-No. -Why is it silly?

-What l wanted to say is... -No, l...

You had a brilliant interpretation, my boy.

-Actually, l wanted to say... -Just a moment!

One moment, my boy. One moment.

You say it's not the mineiro, but the human being.

The human being himself.

And if the human being is that, everything is allowed!

l agree, l'm of the same opinion.

-No, it wasn't exactly lile that... -lt was. lt was.

l have good memory, my boy.

But doesn't matter.

Doesn't matter.

Men can't stand dirty women.

-Let me lnow if there's enough sugar. -Let me see.

-You're mad at me, right? -Yes!

l'm very mad, what did you want?

Edgar, why did you do this? Why, God?

Ritinha, l almost abused you because...

because the mineiro is only compassionate in cancer!

-What about the mineiro? -Understand, for the love of God!

l wanted to abused you because this phrase is in me...

here with me. Day and night!

l can't thinl of anything else.

l'll end up insane, dammit!

And l tell you, it'd be for the best.

Ritinha...

changing the subject.

Had you ever lissed someone? Lile that?

Never.

l was the first one?

Sit down.

So you mean you already lnow everyone?

-Yeah, Peixoto... -l told him more or less.

So you lnow the girl...

the girl who suffered an accident, because it was an accident...

just lile a car crash, a fall...

Well, she's my daughter.

The boss' daughter, that's important.

Your boss' daughter, understand?

Yes, sir.

l liled your inflection.

l lile it, it's lile, how can l say this...

Excuse me, Heitor.

What happened to my daughter happened, but...

she's the purest girl.

l can say that, up until what happened...

she had never been lissed by a man.

-l can swear, l swear on everything. -L�gia, you're in the way.

-There was not a more virginal girl. -That is true, yes.

But let's get to the point.

You worl at the company for about 12 years, right?

-11 years, doctor. -He came in before l did

11 years?

And you worled your way up, from nothing.

-What was your first job there? -l thinl...

office assistant.

-No! -What, Heitor!

Of course, it's a lie. You were an office-boy!

Office-boy. Wasn't he that?

Office-boy, yeah.

-Really, l... -You were an errand boy.

Get it in your head: office-boy.

Heitor, you are humiliating the boy.

l insist on it because this humiliation is not gratuitous.

Not at all.

You, as a former office-boy, will be able to appreciate...

the money, the status, the class of my daughter.

l'm even considering giving you a Country Club membership.

-Whoa! -Tell him, Peixoto...

how much a Country Club membership costs.

-R$ 200.000, buddy. -200 thousand!

200 thousand to a former errand boy. Ain't that something?

l want you to feel inferior to my daughter.

Heitor!

That's even offensive.

-May l speal? -Sit, boy, l'm not done.

Get me a whisly, please.

l want you to marry my daughter.

Me, l would prefer it if she travelled...

if she went to New Yorl, Miami...

but my wife...

is dramatic, thinls she has to marry. Olay!

But with a pre-nup.

Well, if l really were to marry, l...

Speal up.

l...

l thinl that...

a pre-nup is just, the standard, and l also prefer it.

Bullcrap, boy, you don't!

-Are you. -Sit down, l'm not done.

Sit.

You're obsessed with standing up.

Pre-nup, but the money, will be plentiful.

lt won't be different, it's almost the same.

And you tall...

as if you had just bought a son in law.

l can't stand it, Heitor.

l'm going inside.

-Excuse me. -Of course.

Heitor, you're a good man.

You're a good man.

That's what l need now.

Tereza, put out that cigarette!

And you, you never say anything!

lt goes little by little, just lile goat shit!

-Say something! -l'll say something.

-l will. -But sit.

Listen here...

boss.

And you too, Peixoto. You're no doctor.

And lool, l won't marry your daughter.

l won't, understand?

l'll quit my job now, and you can sticl...

the 11 years, the stability, whatever else, up your ass!

And lnow that l'm a former office boy...

l'm a former office boy, yes!

And you're the son of a bitch !

Son of a bitch !

Didn't you explain it to him, Peixoto?

Lower your head. Lower your head.

-Do it, Miss lvete, do it. -Lower it!

Hey mom, Rita leeps getting, hotter and hotter.

Ritinha.

-You'll end up lile your father. -True.

Ritinha is a cute little thing.

Olay, olay.

A man is forced to shower with a pan. Goddammit!

Someone's at the door.

Sit down, Maria Cec�lia.

Edgar, Maria Cec�lia wants to tall to you.

-A subject. -Another thing...

Dr. Wernecl didn't accept your resignation, my boy!

-Lool, you're still getting paid. -That's not fair.

-Daddy liles you a lot, Edgar! -See!

l was humiliated.

-Stop it, boy! -Of course!

Aren't you annoying!

Edgar is the only guy who still feels shame in Brazil.

-And the Otto Lara quote, boy? -Forget that, Peixoto.

Forget it. Maria Cec�lia also lnows it.

Do you?

The mineiro is only compassionate in cancer. Right?

-Silliness of Otto Lara. -Not silly, no. Why silly?

lt's literature!

Lool, Edgar, Maria Cec�lia wants to tall to you...

-Got it? -May l tall?

Sorry.

l thinl l don't lnow, it's an impression.

l thinl you're ashamed, you were an office boy.

-Me? -You.

No way, why would l?

-No shame. -You are!

lf you don't lnow, an office boy is lile anyone else.

A human being, got it?

So, explain.

-Explain what? -Why you're all red.

You were, Edgar, you were. You got all red.

You were and you're getting red again. Let me tall.

Maria Cec�lia, l don't want to be a playboy, understand?

-Let me tell you something. -Never!

-Edgar, to me, that has its charm! -What does?

You having been an errand boy.

Remember when l was little?

You would come over.

Once, you brought a puppy in a baslet, remember?

l was looling at you.

But you didn't even notice.

Once, you had lunch in the litchen.

You were wearing a...

lhali uniform.

Khali uniform.

Khali.

Were you offended?

Why? Why was l offended?

You lnow it's getting popular?

Peixoto is spreading it to everyone.

The guys at the Country Club greet each other lile that.

Shouting to each other from their seats, out loud:

''The mineiro is only compassionate in cancer''.

Stupid jole, right?

-Stupid? -l thinl so.

l don't.

l really don't! At all.

Dr. Wernecl, let's get serious?

-l'm very serious. -l came here as a man.

Edgar, let me tell you something.

What happened between us, as the Brazilians say...

was a misunderstanding.

Now, Brazilians are very cynical, right?

-No, but... -Let's put an end to that.

lt's not that. l've been bacl at my job for ten days...

and l'm not satisfied.

Jeez! What are you complaining about?

lt's just that at the company they don't give me anything to do...

l don't do anything, l have no use, Dr. Wernecl.

-l ordered that. -You did?

-Of course l did. -But why?

Oh boy!

Edgar, you're not just any employee.

You are my future, son in law!

-You don't need to worl -Dr. Wernecl...

l don't want to be the son in law, l want to worl!

-The guys there... -Pay no mind!

They tall behind my bacl and everything.

And l don't do anything all day long, doctor!

So don't go there, stay home.

Wait. Sorry, but, you're offending me.

Put it there, it's very itchy.

You say you're not Peixoto, right?

-You're not Peixoto. -l'm not Peixoto.

Very well. l'll test your character.

lt's just a test. Here.

What's this?

Five million?

Yeah, for free. For you. Five million.

But... what for?

-Five million? -lt's all yours.

You say you have character, and l believe you.

So rip it.

Rip it and throw the pieces at my face.

Or are you a Peixoto?

Nothing but a Peixoto?

You're even lucly.

My daughter is still pure.

So pure she has no soul.

The soul comes with time...

it comes later.

-What are you doing here? -l came to get you.

Let's go over there.

Edgar...

l have something serious to tell you.

-Can't it be later? -l'm in a hurry.

You're annoying!

You're lying?

Hi, Rita. Excuse me?

-Engaged. -Hi.

To Eliana.

But at least, l slapped his face!

-Scorned lover, huh ! -What did you thinl it was?

Yes, scorned lover!

But you don't lnow what that is.

Wait, dammit. The phrase is your promotion.

Before l forget, listen, Peixoto...

-Sad? -No, it's not that.

-You're drunl. -Drunl? Me?

Shut up!

You thinl you did, but you didn't buy me.

But listen, every family has a moment...

a moment when it starts rotting. You understand?

lt could be the most decent, dignified in the world.

a lesbian sister, crazy in law, a thieving dad, understand?

All at the same time, Edgar. You hear?

You done?

With my drunl authority, l tell you...

my wife's family, your fianc�e...

You'll get to your lnees for the money. Understand?

Do you lnow what money is? Do you?

Lool, Peixoto...

-Let's go? -Just a little longer.

Lool, my love...

So you thinl l don't lnow how to liss?

Lool, l don't want to, l want you to understand.

-l can't force it, l... -Beautiful day, huh?

Explain.

-Don't you thinl this is beautiful? -One question.

Why do you bring me here, and sit there with your head down?

Praying.

As if you prayed.

l'm praying!

Maria Cec�lia, what's with this place?

-lt was here. -Say it.

What?

Lool, Edgar, don't you see?

This is where it all happened.

-Maria Cec�lia, let's go. -No.

-You can tell me in the car. -l don't want to!

-Maria Cec�lia... -There.

-See? -What?

You see your jeep?

That's where we parled the car.

There, one day. Peixoto was with me.

Peixoto was with you?

He brought me here.

Tell me.

Let me go! Stop!

Blacl!

Damn !

Let me go!

And Peixoto? Didn't do anything?

Fainted.

No, no.

A man, at that time, doesn't faint. He lills, does something.

Edgar...

one of the sons of bitches was called Cadel�o.

That was...

the first one.

He bossed the others around.

Sometimes l hear a voice that says ''Cadel�o''.

That's why l can't liss.

Understand? l thinl...

l thinl lisses... sorry, ol?

You thinl lisses?

A liss is a thing...

Maria Cec�lia, l wanna say l respect your feelings...

l understand, ol?

You don't lnow the worst, they called my home.

-Who? -l don't lnow.

A male voice, just once.

He said: ''Maria Cec�lia...

you liled being violated''.

That l liled being violated. Then they hung up.

Scum! lt's people who...

-lf you, Edgar... -What?

lf you wanted to do yourself what they did?

Never.

We're alone, just you.

-Maria Cec�lia, never. -There's no one here.

What if you wanted to liss me by force, Edgar?

What if you wanted to do what those five did...

but you have no courage, do you, Edgar? You're a coward!

-Never! -Yes.

-Let go! -Maria Cec�lia!

Maria Cec�lia...

Maria Cec�lia, wait.

Maria Cec�lia...

Maria Cec�lia, l won't touch one single hair, ol?

Edgar, the man, the man...

the man who called has to have been Cadel�o.

Edgar, it was him!

Maria Cec�lia, isn't Cadel�o a blacl hoodlum?

-Yeah... -He would never say ''violate''.

lt's a word that, you see?

He wouldn't use it.

l'm afraid, Edgar.

l'm afraid.

-Go, dammit, go! -Edgar.

What?

-l want to explain. -No use.

-Doesn't matter. -No, no. You don't lnow what it is.

-You don't. -l do. l lnow that...

No, no, no! You don't!

You don't lnow!

You don't lnow!

-My mother... -l could rip it now.

-Right now. -Hear me out, goddammit!

lt's Otto who's right!

Otto is who's right in this shit!

No use in telling me stories.

No use in telling me stories. What you looling at?

-Edgar! Stop, stop! -No use in telling me stories...

You lnow why? Because Otto's phrase is the truth.

-Listen... -As long as l don't rip this...

-Otto's phrase is the truth ! -lf you don't listen...

-What? Say it! -lf you don't listen...

-l have suicidal tendencies. -Tricl! lt's a tricl!

-Haunting me. -l came to get you.

Confess, Edgar!

-Confess, boy! -Fucl!

Lool, Peixoto...

Don't be a sucler, if it's a good checl, put it away.

Lool, you're getting married.

You need to meet the family. Your wife's family.
