Original subtitles

[Liana] If only I could forget. I wish I could erase what happened.

[Mateus] You had no right to hide this from us.

[Marcos] Mom?

I'm here because he raped you?

I'm sorry that I had to tell you.

It hurts me to this day.

And it's hurting you to hear this, I know.

I never wanted you to feel this pain.

I dedicated my life to making sure you wouldn't.

I was assaulted.

It's not that I drank too much. I was drugged.

I... resisted.

I made it very clear.

I told him, "No! No!"

I said it. He didn't listen.

He took advantage.

And I blacked out.

And he still went on.

He still went on.

Don't say anything more right now, Mom.

That night, my whole life changed forever.

At first, I was really angry with myself.

And scared.

I felt ashamed for something I didn't even understand.

Then I connected the dots.

That's when I realized exactly what to call what he had done.

I felt all of that shame become revulsion.

When I found out you two had different fathers,

and that you were actually Oscar's,

I didn't even want to have you, Marcos.

I didn't want to have a baby that came from that rapist.

I was married to Tomás and trying to get pregnant when it all happened.

But we couldn't have one without the other.

I didn't get an abortion because I wanted a son with my husband.

Because I wanted Mateus.

And I convinced Tomás to go along by finding another family to take you.

[exhales]

That's Sérgio and Betina, as you all know.

But I couldn't bear to be without you.

[shaky breath]

The moment I saw you, I knew I couldn't go through with it.

I regretted my choice.

I went back to get you because I couldn't live without you.

Once you were in my arms, I couldn't let go.

I looked in your eyes, I held you and I knew...

- [Marcos' breath shudders] - ...that you could only be my son.

[Marcos sniffles]

I have loved you fiercely since the minute you were born.

You have been the light of my life just as much as your brother.

When I saw the connection you two had, I knew it was wrong to tear you apart.

I needed my boys to be together.

Dad knew all this?

Yes, he did.

He knew everything.

The reason I went out that night...

is that he'd gone to stay somewhere else

because I found out he was having an affair.

He'd cheated with Cláudia.

The same Cláudia that you know.

I was devastated and I just needed to get out for a while.

I just needed a distraction from my pain.

Oscar was supposed to be a friend.

Tomás said he could move past all of it.

He said he could, but he never really accepted it. He found it too hard,

but I... needed to fight for you.

I poured all of my energy into keeping us all together.

I didn't want anyone else to suffer from what happened to me that night.

I hoped that your dad would eventually be able to love you

as much as I have from the very beginning.

And... like I always will.

I love you. I love you!

[sobbing] I love you!

Marcos...

[exhales]

[door slams]

[Marcos sighs]

DESPERATE LIES

I understand why she hid it from you.

Because... when a woman goes through something that awful,

she feels humiliated.

She feels ashamed.

She's afraid people are going to judge her.

You guys know that your mom was free to sleep with anyone she wanted. Right?

Anyone she chose.

But she was assaulted.

Because she said no. She didn't give consent,

and he raped her.

It was a crime.

What your mother did took a lot of courage.

A lot.

It would've been better if I didn't exist.

Marcos...

[somber music plays]

[laughs and cries]

[Liana sniffles]

[birds chirping]

[judge] Liana will no longer be using the last name of Rosenthal

acquired at the time of the marriage.

Yes, that's correct.

[judge] With regards to the minor children, Mateus Azevedo Rosenthal

and Marcos Azevedo Rosenthal...

[Liana] I'm sorry, Your Honor...

Mateus will use that name but Marcos won't.

We've filed a motion to have his birth certificate reflect that.

As the motion is still in the process of approval,

for the purpose of today's audience,

both of the children's father is still Tomás.

Your Honor, I would also like to point out that I do not agree

with the decision regarding visitation.

We are maintaining the schedule as agreed.

And both boys will continue to live with their mother.

What I'm trying to propose is something that...

- Tomás... Tomás. - ...will be better for everyone.

[judge] At this point, I would like to ask counsel to confirm

with their respective clients

whether we are continuing with the consensual process of this divorce?

We have no intention of going to court, Your Honor.

[judge] Then we may proceed.

We can consider the terms of the agreement valid.

[tense music playing]

[Tomás] She wants to come between my son and me.

As it stands, I only get to see him once every two weeks.

[sighs]

Liana must be feeling so powerful right now. That woman

is my cross to bear.

My...

My cursed passion.

Passion? Really?

[phone ringing in background]

No.

I only meant that I hate her.

[Tomás sighs]

Love is more powerful than anything, remember?

You're free now, Tomás. Isn't that good?

We should be celebrating.

You wanted this.

You can finally start a new life.

- And also... - [door opens]

...you have me with you.

Hey, Tomás.

- Yes, Congressman? - They tell me that you just hit

the incredible number of half a million followers.

Is that actually true?

[laughing] It is quite incredible.

So impressive.

I'm gonna set up a meeting for the three of us sometime next week.

- Mm-hmm. - I wanted to bounce some ideas off you

- on how to spiff up my campaign. - Of course, as you wish. Also...

I wanted to ask you to do me the honor

- of being the best man at my wedding. - [congressman] Oh!

- Cláudia and I are making it official. - [Cláudia giggles]

Excellent! Congratulations.

- Thank you. - [Cláudia laughs]

[she laughs again]

[he chuckles]

[Débora] Marcos is here in Rio.

- He's visiting his cousin. - Cousin?

Inácio.

But that's wrong! He's Oscar's son!

How can he be spending time with anyone related to his father's murderer?

[tsks, exhales]

Hey, Dad. If we want that boy in our lives, it's up to us.

We have to let him know he's wanted.

You're right, Débora. You should call him.

[sighs] I've been calling.

Hold on.

Sure.

It's Débora. She... wants to talk to you.

[quiet, tense music plays]

Hello?

Hi, Marcos! I'm so happy to hear your voice!

Débora, please don't try to call me again.

I have nothing to say.

And Inácio doesn't either.

You're the one who came to me and then you disappeared, I don't...

I mostly wanted to make sure you were all right.

I know the whole story and what your brother did.

Oscar assaulted my mother that night.

She was unconscious. You wanna tell me what you think about that, "Auntie"?

Don't call me anymore. I want nothing to do with you.

[Eudora] Were you aware that your brother did that to her?

It's not the kind of thing a woman forgets.

So Liana couldn't just forgive what Oscar did to her, you know?

I do. [sniffles]

It's just that he swore that she wanted it.

It was consensual.

He always swore that it was consensual!

He had his faults, but I couldn't believe my brother would do something so vicious.

I didn't want to believe he could hurt someone.

He was... He was my only brother!

I... chose to believe his version, Eudora. Anything else would have been too hard.

I know.

- [Débora inhales shakily] - You probably don't want to hear this.

But someone has to say it.

I understand. I really do.

[Débora exhales]

But unfortunately I think what you should've done

is support your friend when she told you, instead

of supporting the guy who raped her.

I was wrong.

I know that. I really do.

I didn't trust Liana...

who was my closest friend.

And it all comes out when my nephew comes into my life.

Everyone did what they thought was best at the time.

And I'm still paying the price for all these decisions.

Because... Marcos wants nothing to do with us.

Please tell me.

How am I supposed to try to fix something that I helped destroy?

[Liana] Your accusations hurt me so much.

I lied and made my share of mistakes, but

everything I did was to protect my boys.

That was after though.

You doubted what I was telling you from the start.

And now you're asking me to forgive that?

If he hadn't come to find you, do you think we'd even be here? Hmm?

I can't lie.

Marcos is part of the family, and I want to know him.

I lost everything.

I came out on the losing end.

This mess cost me my best friend.

It cost me my brother.

I really don't want it to cost me my nephew.

Look at me please, Liana.

What do I have to do? Tell me.

I actually don't know how I got up enough courage to ask to see you.

If it weren't for my girlfriend...

Her instincts are great. The woman's amazing.

It's Eudora.

You know each other. I think you met her at the bar.

I'm in love. After so many years alone, I'm in love.

[laughing] I can't believe it.

I'm happy for you.

Honestly.

Yeah. Thanks.

I'd really like to get to know Marcos. If he wants.

[melancholy music playing]

I would do it all differently if I could.

I know what my mistakes cost both of us.

I'd like...

to tell you I'm sorry.

What I did was wrong.

I really hope you can forgive me.

[Inácio in the background] Time goes by so fast.

My cousins are 18 years old already.

[peaceful music playing]

- I'm nervous as hell about this baby. - [Bia laughs]

What if I totally screw it up for 18 years?

- [Liana laughs] - Whoa, whoa, whoa, Inácio!

I have to learn how to be a grandfather too.

I've never changed a diaper in my life.

You're not supposed to know everything at first.

You have to learn as you go along and figure it out.

It's a voyage of discovery, becoming a parent.

New experiences as you get to know your child.

You're gonna be the greatest dad in the world.

He's planning to be a great birthing coach.

Let's just hope I don't faint.

[Sílvia] The best thing you can do for Bia is hold her hand.

- After all, she'll be doing all the work. - [laughter]

You deserve a world of happiness, Inácio. You both do.

Yeah. Happiness is a choice, isn't it?

And it's also an accomplishment, right, Mom?

Yes. It is.

And you, Vicente? Did you share your latest accomplishment?

Oh man! I finally convinced my beautiful wife to let me book the trip to Bahia!

[all exclaiming and laughing]

I'm so proud of you, Doctor!

- You chose love over work. - [Sílvia laughs]

Well, I am way overdue for a vacation.

[Vicente] And may you choose love over work many times over.

[Liana] Hold on. I need to greet my guests.

[Liana laughing]

Liana! This is amazing!

[Marcos] Lunch with the girlfriend's parents.

Getting kinda serious!

Yeah, Mom really wanted them here.

Pretty cool, huh?

[Liana] That dress looks like it was made for you!

- [Júlia] Like it? - You have a lot to celebrate today.

You both going off to the same school.

- [Júlia] My mom helped me find it. - I hope I get that lucky.

You will. You're on your way, bro. And you got your game back.

[man]...gorgeous.

[Mateus] You're good.

- [Marcos] Yeah. - Hey!

Hi! Mateus! Happy birthday, babe.

Thank you.

- You too, Marcos! - [Betina] Liana,

we just wanna say thanks,

for the love and attention that you've given our Júlia.

Life is full of surprises, isn't it?

- I second that. - It's crazy.

I'm dying to go say hi to the birthday boys.

Of course, go ahead. Be my guest. This way.

- Okay. Perfect. - Thanks, Liana.

- [Sérgio laughing] - [Mateus] Hi!

[Betina] Come here, you.

- [Sílvia laughs softly] - [Liana sighs]

I'm still in shock that these two are 18 already.

[Liana] Me too.

[Betina] Thanks for having us.

Mission accomplished?

Nah.

[both laughing]

They'll be my babies forever.

[Sílvia] Is Mateus going to Tomás' wedding?

[Liana] Last time I checked. It's his dad. He has to go, right?

- [Mateus] It's always been like that! - He didn't stoop to inviting you, I hope?

[Liana tsks]

But I wish him lots of happiness, far from me.

[all chanting] Happy, happy, happy birthday!

Happy, happy, happy, happy birthday!

Happy birthday to Marcos, Matheus,

Marcos, Mateus, Marcos!

You gotta be kidding me! Let's blow these out so they stop.

- ♪ Who will it be? ♪ - [Liana laughs]

- ♪ Who will it be? - Two of you, make a wish.

♪ Who will Mateus marry? ♪ - Let me go to college first.

- ♪ It all depends ♪ - [Liana] You know it's carrot truffle.

♪ It all depends ♪

♪ It all depends on what Júlia desires ♪

[Vicente] She accepted! They have to do it.

♪ She accepted ♪

- Her parents are here! - You'll scare them away!

Okay, that's enough!

- [Marcos] Thanks, Mom. - My sweet babies.

- [guests walla] - [Mateus] Always.

- [Sílvia] Can't believe you're grown up! - [Liana laughs] Enjoy your birthday.

- [Sílvia] Oh! - [Marcos] Thanks, Vicente.

I can't believe we missed the birthday songs!

[both laughing]

- [Liana] You always liked the songs. - Ah!

At least you're here now.

I didn't have any service on the way here.

And then... You know I'm terrible with directions. You remember Eudora?

- [Eudora] Hi. - Yes, I do.

How are you?

- It's been a while though, hmm? - Mm.

Thank you. I'm glad to be here.

I'm glad you're here too.

[Débora] Ah...

Go ahead.

- Is that okay? - Yes, of course.

Marcos?

Hi, Débora.

- How are you? - Happy birthday, sweetie.

It's good to be here.

Listen, I think it's great that my mom's forgiven you, but...

I don't...

I don't feel like we're family.

I hear you.

And I respect that.

But if it makes any kind of difference,

I'm not Oscar.

And I am not gonna give up trying.

Why are you trying?

What do you want from me?

I just want you in my life, Marcos!

I want to get to know you and spoil my only nephew!

I want to be your aunt. And not your fake one!

Your really cool one.

The fun one. The loud one with bangles.

[laughs awkwardly]

And don't be jealous, but I want to know your brother too,

because I know you're a pair.

[Marcos sighs]

You wanna try?

Am I hallucinating or is there some kind of storm brewing

in that beautiful brain of yours?

[both laugh]

Actually this was the calmest my head's been... in years.

But?

- But I really wish Dante was here. - Ah.

So make a call. Get that man over here.

His daughter really needs to be closer to her mother these days.

It's been really good for Ana Vitória.

What do you know about him and his ex?

Nothing.

But he hasn't tried to contact me.

Hmm.

You did give the guy his marching orders, so that's not surprising.

You might have to put yourself out there like he did.

Mm? [giggles]

[Liana laughs] You're so bad!

[both laugh]

[Olívia] It's nice.

- Mm-hmm. I like it. - [phone vibrates]

I think I need to spice this up a little. There we go.

Hello?

- Hi, Ana. - Liana, how are you?

I'm at my mom's house right now. She's cooking for us.

[Liana] That's nice. And how's everything with you?

Everything's great.

My mom got me into an art class in the art museum.

The teacher is totally cool.

That's really great. I'm so happy for you.

How's your dad?

My dad? He's good. He's really good. But he can't talk right now.

He's busy doing something in the house. That's why I answered.

I'm sorry. Maybe next time. Gotta go.

Bye, sweetheart.

Ana, are you supposed to be answering your dad's phone?

I just wanted to play a game.

Hmm... All right. Who called?

- They hung up. - Are you making a cake?

[Olívia] Hey! By the way, how did your exam go earlier, Dante?

Hi, Dad.

Let's see...

If I'm being modest...

- I killed it. - [all laugh]

[Olívia] Mm-hmm!

The fact they chose my favorite Brazilian poet didn't hurt.

- Cheers! Cheers! - Cheers!

- Water? - Of course!

- Okay. - Hey, everyone.

I'm so glad we're all here. This is where we belong.

[sentimental music plays]

[traffic noises]

[birds chirping]

- All right, ready to hear the heartbeat? - Yes, of course.

[rapid thumping]

[doctor] 140. That's nice and strong.

Beautiful.

[relieved sigh]

Give me your hand. Here.

[Inácio exhales]

What is this?

[laughs awkwardly]

[Sílvia sniffles]

I had it made.

It's a print of your baby's ultrasound in 3D.

- I think I recognize Bia's nose already. - [laughing]

I'm sure some of my features are in there too.

This is so unexpected, Mom. Thank you.

We're sleeping over at Inácio and Bia's.

That's assuming the wedding's not a total disaster.

Let's just enjoy it. We can dance...

Inácio sets a good groove. We'll have fun.

Listen to Júlia and have fun.

And you try to have fun getting to know Débora.

- [Marcos scoffs] - Move or we'll be late.

[Mateus] Mm.

[car horn honking]

Get out, Tomás!

Tomás, you can't do this! You have to go! It's bad luck.

- Cláudia. Cláudia, please. - Get out, Tomás!

I've had all the bad luck a man can handle.

From now on, I get stronger. Let me see how gorgeous you are. Come here. Show me.

Come.

That's it. Put that down.

Let me see you.

[exhales]

You look like a queen.

Radiant.

Here.

What's wrong?

Is it loose?

[ominous music playing]

Oh... Those are so beautiful.

Perfection.

[knocking at door]

[Marcos] May I come in?

Of course.

[album pages rustling]

I...

Débora invited me. She told me to meet her here today.

Are you going to the wedding?

Or should I say that circus

that's all over the internet thanks to my son's murderer?

[exhales]

No. I'm not going.

He invited my brother though.

You remind me so much of my son.

[foreboding music playing]

That gun... It-it's not mine, you know.

It belonged to your father.

If you don't mind, sir. I think I'll go wait for Débora out there.

Grandson!

Is it all right if I call you that?

If you want.

I don't believe that my son's murderer...

should be allowed to go on living as though none of this had ever happened.

I'm going to rest for a bit now.

Your aunt should be getting here soon.

Yes, sir.

Enjoy your rest.

[footsteps recede]

Pfft.

[door opens]

- [door closes] - [Débora] Hey!

It's so good to see you here. I'm beyond thrilled.

Did you see my dad?

I wanted to give the two of you just a little bit of time to break the ice,

meet each other again.

He had a really hard time over the years.

The idea of having a grandson is so good for him.

Listen, Débora.

I'm willing to try all this out, like we talked about.

I don't think I can handle coming here all the time.

No! That wasn't the plan at all. [clears throat] That was just an idea.

For today. Did you guys talk? How was it?

Good. We didn't talk that long. He said he needed a rest.

[uneasy music playing]

You sure?

That's not like him. Dad?

Dad?

Where are you?

[Débora gasps]

You didn't hear him leave?

No.

Dad?

Where are you?

[door opens]

[drawers opening]

- Débora? - What?

- We have a problem. - What is it?

He took Oscar's gun.

["Here Comes the Bride" playing with tense undertone]

[congregation oohs]

[sinister music filters in]

[tension mounts to disconcerting levels, cut with alarming swiping noises]

[music fades]

You may all be seated.

We are gathered here today to witness this moment.

That's strange.

She's wearing the exact same earrings as Liana did at their wedding.

[Vicente] How can you be so sure?

Because I actually helped him pick them out the first time.

[officiant]...they stand here before you as one.

I, Tomás Rosenthal, do take you...

[exhales] Cláudia Aguilar,

to be my lawfully wedded wife.

I promise to love and respect you,

in good times and bad. In sickness and in health.

- Do you see him? - [Tomás] For better or for worse

- for all of my days... - No.

...as long as we both shall live.

In accordance with the vows you have pronounced

and with the powers vested in me by the state,

I now pronounce you husband and wife.

Congratulations.

[guests exclaim and applaud]

[people scream]

- Murderer! - He has a gun!

[Débora] No! Dad!

- [César] Get out! - Take my hand! Let's go!

- Get out! - Don't shoot!

- Now! - Wait, please! Dad, put that down!

I should've done this years ago, for Oscar!

- Just put the gun down, César. - You killed my son.

And now I'm going to kill you!

Please don't!

- Get out of the way. - No.

[tense music playing]

Not till you drop that.

He's my brother's father.

If you want to shoot, you'll have to shoot me first.

Don't do this.

You need to step aside, Marcos!

I can't do that.

César. This isn't the answer.

You can't do this.

Grandpa, I just need you to put it down.

Put it down.

[tense music continues]

Security. Security.

Tomás?

Don't touch him, please. I'll take him. I got it.

Dad.

I'm here, Dad. Everything will be all right.

[guests gasping in relief]

- I need to sit back down. - Here.

Thank you.

Sweetheart? Are you all right?

- Talk to him, Mateus. - You all right, man?

Come. Let's sit down for a second.

It's over.

You don't need to worry. Let's just...

What the hell was that, Tomás?

Uh, that was just someone who's got some kind of, um, mental issues.

No. That seemed personal.

- We'll discuss it later. - I can explain.

I understand your concern. I'm... sorry.

We'll... talk.

[bossa nova playing]

It looks like I owe you a debt of gratitude.

You saved my life, young man.

[clears throat, sniffs]

I wasn't a good father to you.

I hope that someday you'll understand my reasons.

I don't want your gratitude, Tomás.

I wasn't trying to protect you.

I'm just sick of your bullshit.

I'll take that as forgiveness, Marcos.

As I'm forgiving you for the suffering you imposed on me.

I can't stay here.

We're coming with you.

- [Marcos] I'm leaving. - You stay here, Mateus.

It's important for my son to be here.

I've got something I wanna say.

Can you sit, please?

Stay for a bit. Then we'll take off together.

You need to sit down with us too, Dad.

[clears throat]

[Mateus] This is a big day for you.

[Tomás clears throat again]

You're kinda on a mission, to always live the truth, right?

Mm-hmm.

My mission is my family.

The most important thing in my life is family. And I don't think...

that you have any fucking clue what that is.

- [somber music playing] - Family isn't just about blood.

It's about the people you choose to love.

When you marry, when you decide

to adopt a child.

The greatest gift I ever got was my brother.

We came into the world together and we'll always be together

because of everything Mom did to make that happen.

Marcos n' Mateus is something that you never understood!

Marcos is the most important person to me! How can you not know that?

If someone goes against my brother, they go against me.

If they go after Marcos, they go after Mateus!

If you start despising Marcos, then you are despising me too!

If you can't love my brother, then your love has no value to me.

You need to get over yourself, man.

You keep going on about how your life was destroyed because of Marcos?

The Marcos who tried so hard, who worshipped you?

The one who destroyed your life is you, Dad. You did that!

- It'd be better to finish... - No, we're finishing this now!

I'm sick of you pretending to tell the truth,

and I want our side of the story to be heard for once!

You talk a lot in the family's name, don't you?

In the name of truth. Only it's all bullshit because it's not about us.

Parents aren't supposed to hang their kids out to dry in public like you did.

What you did was wrong and you know it.

The truth is that you don't know the fucking truth, Dad!

If you did, then you'd understand.

That there isn't Marcos without Mateus, and there's no Mateus without Marcos!

You should know that Marcos is part of me.

I don't want you as a father.

I don't ever want to see you again.

[somber music swells]

[inhales]

[emotional music plays]

[Júlia] Are you ready?

Three, two, one,

rolling.

My name is Liana Azevedo,

and I am here to tell you my story.

For many years, I was under the impression

that I was the only one with a story like mine.

But I realize I wasn't.

And I realize just how important it is... to talk.

I was afraid that my story would be too much for people.

But now I know that it can do good.

Because other women who have faced the same experience

- might be helped by it. - [hopeful music playing]

18 years ago, I wanted a baby more than anything.

At the time, I was married to Tomás Rosenthal.

And one terrible night,

I was the victim of a sexual assault.

I was raped.

Not long after, I discovered I was pregnant,

and in a rare situation,

my twins were the result of heteropaternal superfecundation.

That means each baby had a different father.

Tomás?

- Hmm? - Look at this.

[Liana] One had my husband's DNA,

and the other had that of the man who assaulted me.

They are awful words to share.

But I... was raped.

EACH STORY IS A STORY

There was... so much worry.

At first, I was ashamed.

I was afraid of what people would say, of being judged.

I think sometimes we want to avoid more pain.

But we only hurt ourselves more,

because there is no greater pain than carrying that kind of anguish alone.

Nothing will be more painful than trying to hide it.

Nothing hurts more than remaining silent.

Suffering alone.

- Your voice needs to be heard. - [Ana Vitória] Dad?

- Free it. - Dad?

Daddy, I've been calling you. What's the matter?

Nothing.

I was just, um, watching a video. Some... something Liana's in.

What's she doing in a video on the internet?

[Dante sighs]

She's, um...

sharing a very important story.

Ana, Liana is a very special person.

She tried to call you.

What? How do you know she called?

Why am I hearing this now?

It was the other day.

You were busy, and I answered.

- Sorry. - Ana...

Please don't make us move back.

I like being here. With Mari, Mom and you.

Hey.

We're not going to move, hmm?

- We have a deal, remember? - I do.

Let me hear you say it.

- I remember. - Thank you.

Have I ever not held up my end of the bargain?

- No. - No.

I do like Liana.

Yes, I'm fond of her too.

I think she's amazing.

My name is Patricia and I was raped

- at a club owned by Oscar Oliveira... - [Júlia] Look.

- ...18 years ago. - This woman's talking about Oscar.

Oscar saw what was happening to me and did nothing.

He didn't stop it. He didn't try to help.

When I tried to say something, I was called a liar. No one believed me.

Today, I'm finally able to share my version.

Your courage has given me courage, Liana.

When I tried to press charges, I was completely humiliated

by the lawyers who defended the man who raped me.

The firm owned by Tomás Rosenthal and his father.

The same Tomás Rosenthal who was married

to Liana Azevedo and constantly attacks her on social media.

Patricia's not the only one speaking out.

The one who defended that rapist and made me silent.

You've been heard.

You did it. You did it.

Tomás has obviously never believed what happened to his ex-wife.

Hey, Júlia! Get over here!

[Júlia] Why?

You guys need more lessons?

- [Mateus] Bring it! - [Marcos] Ha!

- Wow! - [Marcos] Look out!

- You're a lefty? - [Júlia] You're the goalie. Go!

- I'll back you up! - Ah!

- Man, pretty good! - [Júlia] Mine!

She's been holding out on us!

- Goal's over there! - [Julia] Whoa! Wait!

- [Marcos] You won't get it past me! - There she goes!

- [Mateus] Ah! - [Júlia] Ha!

[Mateus] That was awesome, babe.

- We're toast. - Respect, respect.

I need a break.

[Júlia] I'm hot.

[Mateus groans] Man.

[Júlia sighs]

[Marcos grunts]

This is nice.

[Júlia] Mm.

I wanna run something by you.

I think... I wanna do something else instead of law.

What else?

Teach Phys-Ed.

- Huh. - Really, Marcos?

- Yeah? You wanna teach? - I think so.

That's so you.

Ha! I totally see it.

That makes three of us.

[Liana] That's where I went wrong.

I did that a lot.

I lied for years, and that was a mistake.

And my mistakes made a lot of people suffer for no reason.

But now that I've chosen to share this pain with you,

it's made such a difference for us all.

I feel like a whole person again.

Because I was encouraged.

First and foremost, by my sons,

by my good friends,

And by women who are finally having their voices heard

and who are a continuing inspiration to get our stories out there.

Each story is a story.

I am Liana Azevedo,

and today I told you mine.

- [applause and whoops] - Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you all for coming.

[applause die out]

You know I could die of pride over you right now.

Well, please don't. Not today.

Why not?

Because I'm making some very fun plans.

And I need you with me.

I like these events, Dante.

Yeah?

I'm really glad I listened to you.

[Dante] Hmm.

Well, I'm not sure it was completely selfless.

I wanted to see you.

[romantic music playing]

[Liana] So you don't mind seeing each other long-distance?

That's how life wants it, I guess.

So I'll have to go along with it.

[Bia] Ah!

[Inácio] Breathe, Bia.

- You're doing amazing. - [Inácio] You're doing great.

- Ah! - [Inácio] Keep pushing.

- [doctor] Excellent, almost there. - Only a few more pushes.

- Almost there. - [Sílvia] Liana?

- It's a girl! - [baby crying]

- [Inácio] A girl? - Inácio, you've got a girl!

- [Inácio] Really? - [Sílvia] Absolutely gorgeous.

- [Inácio] She's all right? - Everything's perfect,

- and she has so much hair already. - We actually have a daughter?

[Sílvia] You two did amazing!

[Liana] Silvia, that's wonderful! This is the best news!

As soon as we're finished here, we'll come over to meet her.

- [Marcos laughs] - Ah, I'm on cloud nine.

I'm happy for my son, for me, for you guys.

Finally, life is all good!

And listen, I got your book delivered to my office.

First book I bought on the internet, by the way.

[Liana laughs] The boys and I are looking at a boxful, actually.

Júlia helped her.

No, they just wanted me to have a few copies to sign

for those who can't come to the launch session.

We're all nervous, it all happened so fast.

I'm so happy for you, Liana.

Enjoy every single minute of it. You've earned it.

[Tomás] "I was assaulted."

"I take responsibility for my decisions."

"Everything I did was to keep Marcos and Mateus together."

Blah-blah-blah, blah-blah-blah.

[sighs]

[grunts]

I'll write a book too. But better.

Something people will wanna read.

I think you've had enough.

I just told the Congressman you weren't here

because you can't talk to him in this condition.

- Hmm. - But he did say

that they'll send your things over from the office.

Mm.

That son of a bitch let me go.

We just have to let the storm about Liana's book blow over.

You know how people are. You just have to wait it out.

These things always die down.

You can concentrate more on your prisoners and your mission.

They look up to you.

Your work's important.

[Tomás exhales]

I decide what's important.

Not you.

Not Liana.

You don't decide.

I do.

[dark, chilling sound plays]

[breathes deeply]

[uneasy music plays]

[Liana echoing] Tomás?

Tomás?

I've done all I can to keep us together.

Tomás?

The four of us.

[Tomás] What do you want?

I loved you. I loved you so much.

[Tomás] Liar.

Witch.

You're a witch. Stop lying to me.

You are a curse.

[Liana exhales]

That's the truth.

Get out of here.

[Liana] You were right.

Get out of my life, witch.

Your path is the light.

- Leave me. - It's the truth.

- Go away. - You've always been right.

- Go away. - Always been right.

- Go away, go away, go away! - Always been right.

Get out.

Your path is the light.

[hissing]

[breathing heavily]

[Mateus] My turn.

[Liana] Mm!

- [Mateus] You are in trouble. - Popcorn!

[Marcos] Oh yeah!

[sinister music playing]

[Liana] All right, who's gonna get me the wild card?

- Hmm? - [Marcos] Ha!

- [Marcos] I want it. - [Liana] At least deal me some good cards.

[Liana and the boys talking, muffled]

[crickets chirping]

[fire quietly roaring]

[fire crackles]

[inhales]

[low whooshing]

[panicked breathing]

[panting]

Marcos!

- [gasps] - Marcos?

- [Liana] Mateus! - [knocking on door]

The house is on fire! We need to get out!

- [knocking continues] - [Liana exclaims]

The door's locked!

Shit! Bro! Did you lock it?

- [Liana] Get the key! Unlock it! - No! Why would I lock it?

Get the key and open it!

[Marcos] We don't have it! We didn't lock it!

[Liana] Go out the window!

We can't get out, Mom! The fire's right outside!

Look for the key!

You just said so yourself! We didn't lock it!

[Mateus] Mom!

- [Marcos] Mom! Mom! - Hello?

- [Mateus] Help us! - Hello?

There's a fire!

My house is on fire and we can't get out! Come now!

[Marcos] Mom, we can't breathe!

[Mateus coughing]

[Marcos coughs]

[panting]

- [Mateus wheezing] - [Liana] Marcos?

- Mateus? - [Marcos coughs]

[sobs] Get near the floor!

Marcos?

[gasps]

Mateus? Can you hear me?

[coughing and gasping continue]

Ah!

[boys coughing]

- [Liana] Ah! - [gasping and coughing]

[Liana] Boys!

[coughing continues]

[Liana screams]

Come on!

Marcos!

Mateus, come!

- Come! - [boys coughing and groaning]

Here! This way!

Stay together!

[still coughing]

I can see you! Murderer!

Assassin!

Assassin!

[boys coughing]

[sinister music plays]

[Liana] This way.

[explosion]

[Liana screams]

[coughing continues]

Marcos? You need to go in the bathroom

and soak three towels in water and bring them back.

Careful!

Mateus? The mattress. Help me lift it!

[gasping]

- [Liana] Marcos! - [Mateus panting]

We need you!

[Liana coughing]

Marcos!

[panicked gasping]

[gasps]

[Mateus coughs]

Give me one! You each put one on, too!

Cover your head. And shoulders!

When I count to three, we push!

You'll go first!

One, two, three!

Ah!

Go, go!

[fire truck siren approaching]

[various sirens blaring]

[EMTs speaking, indistinct]

[boys coughing]

[Liana] We're okay now.

- [police radio chatter] - [medical machines beep]

[EMT speaking in the background]

[Liana panting]

[Tomás muttering] Evil will not prevail.

Evil will not prevail.

[sirens blaring in distance]

- Evil will not prevail. - [thunder rumbling]

Evil will not prevail.

- Evil will not... - [police siren sounds]

[officer] Hands on your head! D'you hear me? Hands on your head.

Evil will not prevail.

D'you hear me? Put your hands on your head! Now!

[chilling music plays]

Evil will not prevail.

[breathes heavily]

[sirens blare, EMTs speak in background]

[dramatic music playing]

[coughing]

[siren lingers, then fades]

[key rattles, metallic clanging]

PRISON GUARD

[Tomás] There is no such thing as forgiveness in the world of lies!

[cell door slams]

In the world of lies, there is only oblivion!

["Recomeçar" by Tim Bernardes playing]

And the only way back, the only one,

for us all to get our lives back on their paths...

is the truth.

The truth will set us free!

- [inmate] Yes, brother! - Be free!

Be free!

EACH STORY IS A STORY

[people chattering excitedly]

[Liana laughs]

[song continues]

- Ready? [giggles] - Wow.

[contented sigh]

[baby coos]

Mm, look who's up.

You want Daddy?

Ah, we want Daddy's attention.

[traffic sounds in distance]

[both laugh]

[both giggle]

[Liana laughs]

[indistinct]

[teens laughing]

[Marcos] C'mon! Get up!

What about the picnic?

We have an amazing spread!

[indistinct conversation continues]

[song continues]

[song continues]

[song ends]
