William and Caio paste a poster at Pizzeria Campos announcing discounts on pizza prices to celebrate the purchase of shares of Rocha Constructions. Their radio is playing “SexBomb” by Tom Jones & Mousse T.
“Done!” Caio gets down from his chair, “I hope enough customers are coming!”
“I paid for an ad on the radio station.” William comments proudly, “And remember, son, we'll soon have another pizzeria as a branch in Rainbow Garden.”
“Who's going to run the pizzeria over there, Dad?” Caio asks, interested.
“We're going to hire trustworthy people. Maybe Evandro can point us to the old employees of his diner.” William replies smiling, “Oh, God, is this really happening?”
“Yes, Dad.” Caio hugs William.
João Paulo walks into the pizzeria, “Oh, that's cool! A moving scene between father and son.”
The hug is undone
Katherine staggers to the side and nearly falls with the slap.“ARGH! How dare you? First, you bully MY husband, and then you slap me? I'm the one who comes here to demand justice!”Kelvin rushes up and defends Melissa, “I don't even want to know who started it: OUT of here, Katherine!”Katherine gawks, “Do you defend your troubled wife?”“Unlike your husband who would rather fire you from Rocha Constructions to save the company's reputation, I defend my wife in everything!” Kelvin exclaims furiously.Katherine smiles mischievously, “Oh, I get it. OK, goodnight.”Katherine withdraws with the certainty that Kelvin is jealous of Josias, “One day I still take advantage of this situation.”******Later, the Campos Pizzeria became full of customers wanting to take advantage of the promotional prices. The radio cheers the people with “One More Time”,
The next day, William is standing in a strategic corner of Sunset Village, watching Josias's car leave for the company.He smiles triumphantly and heads straight for the intercom of the barred gate.Inside, Hector answers, “Hello?”“Will Campos, my chap! I want to talk to Mrs. Rocha.”Hector raises his eyebrows, “Mrs. Rocha? Mr. Rocha just left.”“I know, I want to talk to Katherine Bezerra Rocha. Can I be clearer than that?”Hector wrinkles his nose. He opens the gate and allows William in. In the meantime, he goes looking for Katherine.The mistress is finishing her breakfast in the dining room. David and J.J. are with her.“Finish soon or you'll be late for school.”“The private school allows a few seconds of delay,” David replies with a snobbish smile.Katherine rolls her eyes. She's said a hundred times that the Sunset Village School isn't private, but David insists on this elitist reverie.Hector catches up to her, “Madam, Mr. Campos wishes to talk to you.”Katherine's eyes wide
At school, Rosemary and Pedro remain sad in the schoolyard while the surrounding students play in the playground.Alan and Caroline leave one of the hopscotch groups and approach the Reis siblings.“Hey guys, why are you guys looking as if we’re in some burial?” Alan asks interestedly.Pedro stares at him, “You learned well from Reuben, huh? We're pretty much thinking about our father's death.”“WHAT?” Caroline's eyes widen.Rosemary adds, “Today, our father said he had gone to the doctor months ago and found out he has a heart problem. He's taking pills for high blood pressure.”Alan and Caroline sympathize.“Oh, heavens...” Alan scowled, “Your grandfather passed away like this. They say these things are hereditary.”Rosemary takes a deep breath, “Well, our dad is turning fifty. Unfortunately, that's part of life.”Caroline hugs Rosemary, “Count on us, my friend.”Alan pats Pedro's shoulder, “Equally, pal.”Rosemary undoes the hug, “Thank you, guys. But it's best to get distracted be
William talks to Katherine and tries to convince her to break free from this sham marriage.“Katherine, think with me. What are the advantages you have in this marriage other than sex with an attractive and virile guy, money, fame, power, and an assured future for your child?”Katherine gawks at the trouble to think. She couldn't answer!William smiles contentedly, “That's what I thought. These are the things that make you insist on this troubled marriage. But when it comes to love, Josias fails at it miserably!”“Are you talking about me or your sister?” Katherine teases him.William is unfazed, “That's the point: Josias's heart is always focused on my sister. I don't want them to remarry. I don't even think my sister would forgive him. But it’s undeniable that Josias still retains the interest. For you, staying married is more of a sense of duty than true love.”Katherine feels a lump i
Kelvin enters the Mountain Penthouse eager to tell Melissa that Diane is pregnant without knowing it was a false alarm.But when he's still in the vestibule, suddenly the radio is turned on and Céline Dion's “I Want You to Need Me” fills the penthouse.Kelvin smiles thinking Melissa wanted a romantic setting, but when he's about to move into the living room......He hears Josias's voice, “You haven't confirmed me yet, Melissa: do you still love me?”Kelvin widens his eyes to the hilt and freezes his steps. He is not visible to Melissa and Josias and continues to listen to the conversation.Melissa shakes her head, “I didn't 'answer.' You have nothing to 'confirm' because you asked a question, not an affirmation. I don't love you anymore, Josias. I love my current husband, Kelvin Mountain. With him, I can feel like a legitimate wife, and not the 'principal', among a harem of concubines who are dying to get me out
A few more days passed. At Crystal Blue, Diane keeps sad and worried about the impossibility of getting pregnant. Daryl finds her melancholy at the bar. Diane inadvertently put too much vermouth into the drink she was preparing for a customer.“Are you alright, my love?”“I'm the one who asks you.” Diane holds out the drink to the customer and walks away, “Are you okay?”Daryl takes her hands, “My love, I'm not upset with you because we had a false alarm. I've already told you that.”Diane takes a deep breath, “Honey, I've made another appointment with Dr. Silvana. I want to know if I have any problems. Perhaps... maybe I am—”“Don't even touch that word, honey!” Daryl comforts her, “Alright, take the exam if you want to feel better, but let's not think about the worst, OK.”“OK.” Diane's eyes are teary.Kelvin approaches his brother
In Dr. Silvana's office, the doctor patiently and carefully explains to a distressed Diane how such a situation of hers is not at all irredeemable.“Diane, I've seen a lot of patients like you.” Dr. Silvana smiles assuredly, “Women who get so anxious and eager to get pregnant that, in the end, they can't. It seems like it's a psychological thing. A lot of my patients ended up getting pregnant when they least thought about it.”“So you think I should make love to my husband without thinking about the trousseau and the baby shower?” Diane asks dumbfounded.And Dr. Silvana is equally shocked, “So that's it? Diane, I believe your body is purposely playing tricks. Do this: relax, go home, and keep trying.”Diane is awkward, “Dr. Silvana, I really wanted to do an exam on my uterus and ovaries... Maybe I'm even in trouble without knowing it.”Dr. Silvana takes a deep breath, “OK, as you wis
In the Mountain Penthouse, Melissa narrated to her parents everything that happened on Josias's last visit to her. Simeon and Dora are appalled by the twist.Dora jokes, “Daughter, are you sure you're not outlining a new episode of 'Sweet Love'?”“I swear I don't, Mom!” Melissa is thrilled, “Josias was asking sweetly and sincerely. But... Couldn't I cheat on my husband, could I?”Simeon takes her hand, “Melissa, what do you REALLY think of all this?”Melissa turns to him, “What are you talking about, Dad?”“I was wondering if you still feel anything for Josias in your little heart,” Simeon replies in a fatherly tone.Melissa has a slight tremor, “I feel... friendship, I feel companionship for Josias and I share two beautiful children.”Simeon continues to motivate, “I understand, dear daughter. I just want you to know that we won't condemn you if
