COR-DE-ROSA STATIONERYPenha and Rosa talk after the tenant has finally left."Rosa, we opened a vacancy in the building above your stationery.

WELLINGTON'S KITCHENETTEWellington is at the sink washing the bowls, still uneasy about past events. Memories go through his mind, phrases.For example, Ricardo earlier, "That can't be, Wellington. I didn't allow anyone to leave."Wellington repeats to himself, "'I didn't allow anyone to leave.' I know that Mr. Oliveira invested in that bar and Rubens is like the manager.

ENTRANCE HOUSE RICARDO - DAYSaturday. Ricardo leaves the house and locks the door. He has the book in hand. Luis is standing next to Ricardo's van, with a bag full of cassette tapes."I don't know if Rosa's stationery shop opens on Saturdays, so I decided to go straight to Vila Aurora or even beyond, to find one in Parque Débora. Then I thought: I could take advantage of it and give Luis a ride."Luis smiles innocently, "Thank you very much, sir.
