Jane and Octavio take Augusto home after a few days in the hospital.
The room that Jack used was turned into the baby's room. The reform was up to Octavio, the doting father.
Alfred rubs his eyes, “I've never seen so many shades of blue in my life. Your child will think he is drowning.”
“Come on, can’t you weave a compliment?” Octavio jokes.
Jane deposits Augusto in the crib, he was sleeping peacefully, “For me, it was perfect. And I think Augusto will like it when he grows up.”
“Or he’ll have one of the walls painted white.” Alfred teases.
Octavio pretends to give his mischievous friend a push on the arm.
In the kitchen, Elza is preparing lunch for the couple.
“In a little while, the chicken will be on point, people!”
“Thank you so much for cooking, Elza,” Jane approaches her.
“Don’t mention it. I know the mother is ti
At Octavio's house, he is calling his family in São Paulo.“Yes, Dad, at the first opportunity, we’ll travel there. So you’ll know your grandson. And as for Jack and Veronica... oh, they're recording the soap opera... Yes, Jane doesn't miss an episode. Even more so now that she is on maternity leave, she will even accompany others shows.”Jane is in a white robe, walking slowly, as she is not 100% recovered, “Give my regards to the people of São Paulo.”“Jane is sending hugs and kisses. Okay, bye, Dad!” Octavio hangs up, “The old man is jumping with happiness at the news.”“Let's take pictures and put them together in the newborn album.” Jane looks at the bedroom door where Augusto continues to sleep peacefully.Octavio hugs her from behind, “We made it, huh, honey?”“Mission Accomplished.”The bell is rung. Octavio breaks the
At Octavio's house, he and Jane are embarrassed by Diane asking to see Augusto.“Do you want to see Augusto?” Octavio is in doubt, “For what reason?”“I don't want to cause trouble.” Diane lowers her head, “I just want to know how it feels.”“Diane,” Jane starts to explain, “You're going through a difficult time. I don't think it would be advisable… or prudent.”“Have you been seeing Dr. Silvana?”Diane appears to be tired of answering this, “Yes, Daryl and I are fine. We believe our turn will come at the time.”“If you are sure… come in, then.”Octavio gives space and Diane enters. She goes to the bedroom and faces Augusto.The baby woke up, and now his eyes are open.Diane feels a lump in her throat and her eyes water, “He's beautiful. Congratulations to you both.”“We hope
Diane enters the Mountain Penthouse and doesn’t find her husband. She hears music coming from outside and smiles.She goes outside and finds Daryl swimming in the pool. There is a portable radio playing the song “Stutter” by Joe feat. Mystikal.“You look like you turned into a fish. You don't come out of the water!” She jokes.“This pool is good and we have a wonderful view of the city.” Daryl swims to the edge next to her.“Thank goodness we don’t have a bigger building right next door.” Diane jokes, “I would hate to know that hot women watch you swim.”“Only if I swam naked...” Daryl winks mischievously.“You pervert.” Diane laughs, “Hey, I visited the Motta family.”Daryl stops laughing, “I think I misheard.”“No, you heard right.” Diane insists, “I visited Octavio and Jane. I had to see t
The next day, Ivan receives a visit from Jacques and Ingrid.“Good morning, Mr. Lafayette et Madame. My wife became a fan of your supermarket.”“Appreciate.” Jacques speaks in a shaky voice, “But we need help from the authorities. A bunch of 'MIBs' entered our house and dragged our son Thierry to an unknown location! We haven’t heard anything since yesterday!”Ivan narrows his gaze, “They kidnapped your son when no one was—”Ingrid's eyes were red from crying, “No, Sergeant, they broke into our mansion in the afternoon, among our servants, and abducted my son! They were too many, and the maids couldn't face them. We haven't received a single ransom call!”“What a horror, people! You have moved to this city and you are welcomed this way. Don't worry—” Ivan has a mental snap, “We're not talking about the same guy who was robbed in the favela, are we?&rdquo
Beto and Teresa talk about Rosemary.“You are right, dear.” Beto chooses one of the pills, “On the one hand, she has this exacerbated loyalty to the ‘beggar’, but on the other hand, she mortally hates the real him, Thierry Lafayette. It’s an inexplicable thing.”“His mother thinks Rosemary is already following in Pamela's footsteps without her noticing.” Teresa gets irritated, “I still haven’t forgotten the slap.”Beto's eyes widen, “Honey! Could it be that Josias had something to do with the kidnapping?”Carmen enters the lobby at this moment, “Good morning, everyone!”Teresa turns to her, “Carmen, did you hear the news? Thierry Lafayette was kidnapped in broad daylight!”Carmen laughs wryly, “Oh, how the world is getting more and more dangerous, huh?”Beto scrutinizes Carmen with the look, “Did your husband h
In the school playground, Alan approaches Pedro, Rosemary, and Patrick with the walkman in his hand.“Guys, have you heard about the kidnapping of Lafayette's son? God, this guy is a lightning rod for confusion, huh?”“I don't know, nor do I want to know!” Rosemary trembles with anger.“What's the matter, Rose?”“Alan, this imbecile is of legal age, but he keeps undressing Rose with his eyes.” Patrick retorts irritably, “And you remember where he was mugged.”“Yes, close to where you live.”Pedro adds, “Meaning, he was chasing my sister, in ambush, waiting for her to come out to kidnap her and—”“STOP, guys!” Rosemary screams and shakes with fear.Patrick hugs her, “Don't worry, honey. I’m here to protect you.”“So the information Dad and Tess got makes sense.” Pedro continues, “The be
Moments later, Octavio finds the aforementioned wasteland. He goes looking for a young man who is probably hiding because of the shame of being naked and beaten.“Hello! If there's a guy here, I came to help you!”Octavio rummages through cardboard boxes and garbage cans. The stench is not comforting.As he turns toward a pile of abandoned bricks, he appears to have seen someone's foot.“I found you. Mr. Lafayette, I came on a mission of peace.”Upon hearing the name, Thierry allows himself to be seen. The aloof expression on his face scares Octavio.“Don't be like that. Come, wrap yourself in this blanket.”“Who are you and how did you know I was here?”“I’m Octavio Motta, best friend of Josias Rocha.” Octavio smiles gently.“How can you be best friends with that monster?” Thierry barks.“Josias Rocha is not a monster. He told me
At the Lafayette Mansion, the mood worsens with the discovery that Thierry won’t return home.“Stop your nonsense, you maniac kidnapper!” Jacques yells, “I want my son back home now!”“Mr. Lafayette, you must understand that Josias Rocha does everything – I mean EVERYTHING – to protect his people.”“I don't want to hear about it! I want my son safe and sound or I'll have to go back to the police! Josias Rocha prevented us from filing a complaint because he assured us that our son would come back! Why are you doing this, WHY?”Ingrid starts to cry when she understands that Thierry will not return.Octavio takes a deep breath, “Your son committed a crime and will pay, on my friend’s terms.”“Is he a businessman or does he work for the criminal underworld?” Jacques counters.“Think what you will, Mr. Lafayette, here's the thing: you fail
