Original subtitles

PREVIOUSLY...

I know who killed those girls.

It was my boyfriend. His name's Eduardo Borges.

He works for senator Otto Veiga.

I received a denunciation.

Edu was here, Dias.

Helping with the sketch, taking the polygraph,

exactly when the pattern was broken.

I lost my job over you.

- All night... - My mother's in the ICU.

Please don't abandon me, Ray.

I'm Tati, Dias' daughter.

I didn't know Dias had a daughter.

You'll go far, Edu. And I'll help you get there.

It was all a lie. We fought, I made the whole thing up.

Please, Edu's the best person I know.

He's a father to my daughter.

The day she called, she thrashed Edu's car.

Scratched it all in GAV's parking lot.

Any problem with the GAV?

Not exactly with GAV...

Cassiana Maia. Does that name ring a bell?

I'll post this so everyone knows who you are.

You said "Cassiana"? She identified herself as just Ana.

- Are you sure it's her voice? - Yes, I'm sure.

Edu wrote down her address.

Edu had her address?

Let me go, man! Are you crazy?!

Pop the trunk.

Let's sort this out at the station.

"I've always been a normal guy, with a normal life...

Except for this tiny, destructive detail

that I've kept secret..." Ted Bundy

Thank God he didn't get my other hand, right?

So I could roll out of the car. You see, I'm all bruised...

We'll have to cut it.

- Drink some water. - There's no other way.

Tell me everything, from the top.

Hey...

What if he's that woman killer who's on the loose?

What is this? A robbery kit?

Robbery, ma'am?

This is my work equipment.

I'm doing a research on rape prevention,

I give lectures about it.

With a ninja mask?

You give lectures with a ninja mask, knife in hand?

You probably go through this in your line of work, too.

People never think it'll happen to them, always with others.

That's why I need these objects, ma'am.

I need to make my audience feel vulnerable.

And of course, show the importance of prevention.

It's a reality shock.

Where's this research for?

- Can I make a call? - Be my guest.

Thank you.

Here comes the lawyer.

Excuse me.

I never felt so bad about myself.

I never had the slightest patience with this Ana.

You don't need to worry, that's not why she died.

Fine, but I still feel guilty. I do.

God Almighty...

Apparently you really like this guy who works here... Edu?

Yes, right, Edu. He's a wonderful person.

Edu is just lovely. Coffee?

- Thank you, darling. - You're welcome. He's great.

So young, and so tolerant of people's flaws, you know?

He's sweet, and always willing to listen.

In fact, I'll tell you this, Vera:

For me, it's been a life experience, being around him.

And his patience... With this Ana,

she'd always call us, always the same problems,

"I broke up with my boyfriend", for hours and hours...

And Edu would listen, without even...

He wouldn't demonstrate even a drop of impatience.

He wouldn't even look at the clock.

By what you're saying, this guy...

seems like a very good one.

- Thank you for everything. - Bye. Good night.

Dias went to dinner with the guys downstairs.

I'll just get some things I forgot.

VICTIM: CASSIANA MAIA

You're not seeing this.

Why make a police report, drag this even further...?

Everything's cleared out.

The boy is Otto Veiga's substitute...

If this leaks, you'll get the governor a lot of trouble.

To all of us, on the brink of elections.

Fine, he's free to go.

But the bags stay.

Of course.

Why the hell did you have to collect those things?

You were lucky it fell on a friend's lap.

Otto would've been in all the headlines tomorrow.

That's what I work with. I need to know

what they feel, what goes through their head.

I just hope you don't also need to rape anyone.

- For God's sake... - Find other means of research.

- Where's your car? - Right over there.

Thank you.

Assis.

Are you thinking of telling Otto?

I'm thinking about how much it would harm me.

After all, I introduced you to him.

- Good evening. - Good evening.

Police.

It's about Cassiana.

- Did you find who did it? - Not yet, but we're close.

Are you the boyfriend she sent the videos to,

saying she would kill herself?

Ex- boyfriend.

Come in.

- Please. - Thank you.

I'll...

I'll...

I'll end it all.

I can't take this anymore. I can't.

I'm going to take this.

I'm going to take this.

I'll...

Do you think I'm ugly?

- Am I ugly? - How many videos are there?

I don't know.

I stopped watching.

She'd always threaten to kill herself I didn't go back to her.

Or threatening to kill me.

- Can I take these? - Sure.

This is my number.

In case you need it.

Hi.

Am I invisible today?

Hi.

- Girls... - Hey, honey, I'm in here.

- Hey, handsome. - My love.

Where were you?

I told you I'd come, didn't I?

Here I am, all for you, sweetie.

- Edu! - Little girl!

Did you know tomorrow's my birthday?

- Tomorrow? - But the party's next month.

- Mommy's broke this month... - No way, the party's tomorrow,

with a beautiful party uncle Edu will throw for you!

- Do you want it? - I do.

- Who wants party? - I do.

- You'll have a great party, OK? - OK.

And he'll get you a big present too!

- You want presents? - I do.

Uncle Edu will give you a present and a party.

What do you want?

I'll show you the magazine with my present's picture.

Oh, really? You chose it already? OK, go get it.

Let me see it.

- It's not necessary... - She's a kid, we need a party!

In fact, I just ran into Gina.

She's acting weird with me.

Yeah, she thinks you're bad for me.

I'm bad for you?!

It's because of the whole engagement thing,

- you'd bring the ring and... - Sweetie...

You know that for me, a ring, a signed paper...

It's not important.

Fine.

I love you, Ray.

For me, there's no greater bond than this.

My love...

That's why we'll put a ring on that finger.

- Do you want it? - Stop, Edu!

- Wanna go pick the best one? - I do...

- I want a ring. Now I do. - You do?

- I'll get you a beautiful ring. - I want it, then.

You told the doorman not to let me in.

Not to let me in!

I was just bringing you your birthday present.

The present you asked for.

Here, look.

The present you asked for.

I shouldn't have bought you this.

Here's your present. Wasn't this what you wanted?

This was what you wanted...

Here's what I'll do to your present.

Here, look.

You don't want to talk to me again?

You don't want to talk?

Here you go.

Hey, Dias.

Why did you take the Cassiana videos?

Of course he told me.

I asked to see them but you took it,

without even registering it, Vera.

Why the rush to watch these videos?

Just because I took it?

- That's what it seems like. - No, Vera, no...

Why do you always misunderstand what I say to you?

Just a minute...

No, I'm talking to Selina.

- I'll be right there. - It's not necessary.

I already had dinner.

- Vera, I... - Yes, what?

Vera, I'm just trying to see if Ana called GAV before.

Hi, Edu...

It's me. What do I do, Edu?

- Please, tell me. - Hello?

- I just can't... - Vera, are you there? Hello?

Yeah... I live alone...

Vera, I'm talking to you. Hello?

OK... No, no... I have work to do.

I'm a clerk. But I'll be back by ten.

Ten o' clock sharp, I'll be here.

That's the time I always get home.

"I saw a woman on the street, she lives alone.

It'll be today, between 10 and 11 PM."

Hello? Vera?

Vera, talk to me.

On the 17th...

15 days before the murder.

Oh my God...

- Good morning! - Good morning.

- Good morning,my friend Stela. - Good morning, darling.

Edu, you won't believe who was here yesterday.

A policewoman. Vera.

- What's her last name again? - Vera... I don't remember.

You were highly praised, you know?

Yeah, we boosted your morale.

What does Vera want with me?

Son, I have to give you... some sad news.

Very sad.

- Ana, she... - My God.

Looking good... Need any help, guys?

OK, then.

What's up? It's looking good!

They almost cut my wrists off to take those handcuffs.

And I had to put up with their mocking faces.

Those bastards...

- Wrap that glass better! - I'm all bruised, girl...

Fine, just give it here...

What the...!

This was the guy who handcuffed me! It was him!

There's no cheese bread today...

- Do you know where Vera is? - I saw her drinking coffee.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Hi, Vera. I just heard you went to GAV.

What a tragedy, this whole Ana thing...

I took her calls, I saved her more than once.

Yeah, they told me...

I didn't know you did that kind of service.

Well... I do what I can to help.

Why not give a few hours of my day...

Very honorable, Edu.

My God, Ana...

It's so hard to believe it can happen to someone close, Vera.

I feel so vulnerable, so...

I even feel guilty.

I should've seen she was going the wrong way.

Vera, I'm sorry to ask you this...

But it was her boyfriend, wasn't it?

You think so?

She was always harassing him, Vera.

It was only a matter of time until he lost it.

It makes sense...

- I would like to hear more. - Please.

I think you could be a key witness

to this harassment, this stalking...

Of course. She would tell me everything.

That Angela must have been very special.

If I spent the whole day hearing complaints

I would end up getting them all mixed up.

Ana was very special.

Very.

But she didn't like life.

It's amazing, that is something so unfathomable to me,

for someone not to like life, because I love it.

Do you think the serial killer detected

that vulnerability in her?

Please.

Vera, I may be talking nonsense...

but I think this time it wasn't him.

From what I read in your books,

these ropes are so over the top...

It's like what you said, it's completely off the pattern.

It's typical of someone who wants to frame this killer.

And there's more:

In my opinion, it was that ex-boyfriend of hers.

Did you know he was in the Navy?

- He handled ropes. - Are you sure of this?

That's important information for us.

He had the motive and the means, Vera.

Vera...

The medical reports.

- Excuse me. - Sure.

You see how he plays, how he tries to manipulate...

- I'll tell you... - Careful, Vera.

- Tell Dias. You're too close. - How, Elda?

Dias doesn't believe in behavioral science.

Criminal profiling is mysticism.

With all the info you have...

I'll be the one who catches Edu.

- And it won't take long. - Come here.

All I have to do is visit his house.

Are you crazy?! Don't go snooping in his house.

- If he realizes that... - He already has, Elda.

- What is it, now? Any doubts? - I'm confused.

We're not used to serial crimes, or to these kinds of minds.

When you talk, Edu scares me.

And then I see him here, with us,

I know he has a girlfriend, he's getting married...

It doesn't add up.

That's the trick, Elda.

That's how they manage to remain invisible.

Because it doesn't add up.

Why are you smelling my perfume?

A psychopath may even get married,

but never out of love. Or what we call love.

A psychopath loves a girlfriend, a child or a pet,

like I love my car, for example.

I'm serious... I don't want anything.

They are unable to establish emotional bonds,

but they learn how to simulate that very well.

They learn emotional language like we learn foreign language.

They use that to beat the game, that's what their life is like.

A game.

They're chameleons.

They're so disassociative they can be different people.

If we don't hurry up, Larissa won't have her cake.

- Fine... - Why don't we come back later?

The cake is ready to be decorated.

I need to answer this, I'll be right back.

I'm at a party meeting, I can't talk right now.

But I'm dying to see you.

I'll call you later. Kisses.

Isn't there a cure, Vera?

Not that we know of.

Psychopathy is the only personality disturbance

where the carrier doesn't suffer,

only those who cross their path.

- Who likes cake? - I do!

- Who likes french fries? - I do!

- Who likes popcorn? - I do!

Don't let it fall!

Don't let it touch the ground!

We'll have a party today...

Cake and soda, lots of candy for you...

Today's your birthday...

Let's party, and have your friends come over...

Larissa! Larissa!

- The first one's for you! - And the second one?

Who'll get the second piece?

That's for Edu.

And where's my kiss? Alright...

What about your godmother?

Of course Edu is going to that cocktail party.

Assis, if I took him as my substitute, that's what he is.

It's a cocktail party, a social event, not a political one.

And why should Edu be left out?

I can't understand you.

You bring him in, present him as someone promising,

you help him be my substitute, now you want me to hide him?

It's not hiding, it's taking it slow.

Don't expose him so much, that's it.

What's happening? What did I miss?

Otto...

Junior called, he arrives on Thursday.

Couldn't he come after the elections?

Oh, and don't worry about accompanying me to the theater,

Edu will go with me, I already gave him your ticket.

It's always to have company who we can talk to about ballet.

Did you see that?

In my own home, I'm the substitute.

Good afternoon... Good afternoon...

Why did you leave me talking alone

on the phone last night?

Dias, I'm sorry...

Here's the flash drive.

What's that you said about last night?

Forget it.

- Dias. - Any news on the shoe stores?

Not yet.

- What's this? - Edu got pulled over.

This was in his car.

Look at this.

When I asked him to see if he had a girlfriend,

it was because she called us denunciating him.

Nobody told me anything.

Even though she seems like a wacko, Nelson,

things change when we see these objects.

- Does Vera know about this? - I didn't tell anyone.

Should I?

No.

Not now, Nelson.

I know her well...

She'll want to handcuff him right now.

Hastiness can put it all to waste.

Dias...

Edu doesn't have the balls to do all this.

Right to our faces, sitting next to us.

No...

- We're not stupid. - Is he here yet?

No, he left.

Should I get him back?

No, never mind.

I didn't want to, but I'll have to go to Otto's party.

You'll go with me, Nelson. We'll meet him there,

we'll have a talk, and bring him back.

That'll give me some time to gather some thoughts.

Look at this.

Why would I want to go to Otto's party, Dias? Please...

- I'm just inviting... - No, I have a ton of work.

Actually, so do you. We're chasing a serial killer here.

Don't say that I didn't invite you.

Otto has serious relationship issues with Junior.

In fact, I think Otto has an issue with everything

that can't be used to improve his career.

What Otto really wanted was a son like you.

A political successor.

And you, Silvia?

Do you think you're more like your son Junior?

I used to believe so, until I wasn't able

to leave Otto behind

to go with Junior and sell his paintings in Montmartre.

That was when I realized

I'm much more attached to the things I despised.

It was hard to admit, but I am.

You just weren't na�ve, Silvia, that's all.

You knew when you get there,

you wouldn't find the teenager you once were.

Wow, Edu, you're such a special person...

You make us feel good even about our own flaws.

Hey, bro... Give me a double, neat, please.

Thank you.

Excuse me.

Let me go! Get off of me!

Here he is. That's him!

What is this? Who's this woman?

That's him, that piece of shit! You attacked me on the car!

Let me go. Stop it, let me go!

You piece of shit, I'll get you, you shit!

That's him... Get off of me!

- Get off of me! - Ma'am, calm down...

He handcuffed me, won't you do anything?

- Get your hands off me. - Come here, come here...

- What, will you kill me? - Let's just talk.

This is bullshit... I know what's happening.

- Take it easy, girl... - Take it easy...?

Great security team you hired.

It was exactly as you said about the newspaper.

Now that I'm in the public eye, people start making stories.

That's only the beginning.

This is absurd.

Do you need any help?

Of course.

Come with me.

I'll never forget this motherfucker's face.

Now he's pretending not to know me, that shit.

Hey, you!

With all due respect to your job,

but you're mistaken. I don't know you.

Wha...? I'll punch him in the face! Let me go!

Come with me.

- I work as a volunteer, ma'am. - Motherfucker!

Piece of shit! I'm coming for you!

I'll get you when you least expect it.

- Just wait here. - What is this, Dias?

Are you trying to make me confront with her?

There's more. The kit in your car, and the denunciations.

What denunciations?

Don't leave this place.

What will you do about it?

- I told you, you may go. - Where is he? Is that it?

You're all the same in this shitty place.

One crazy person after another...

In his bag, I saw a key...

Here it is.

Try it.

Vera.

- You're under arrest. - Under arrest?

- This is illegal, arbitrary. - Soon it won't be.

It's a cautionary measure.

Because a hooker saw me on the papers

and thinks she knows me?

- Those are your grounds? - We'll see if it's only that.

What are the charges, Nelson?

What is that denunciation you're talking about?

It's a set-up, isn't it?

Why handcuffs, so you don't have to pay?

Aren't you a smart-ass? There you go:

A sucker on the streets, and a sucker at home.

Having a backstabbing girlfriend has its consequences.

And there you have it:

They're mistaking you for the "big fish".

Of course he's offended.

He never did anything, you mistreat him.

I didn't mistreat him, I just didn't throw him a party.

He's not bad for me. I'm the problematic one.

I was always like that, ever since I first fell in love.

I cut my wrists, became anorexic...

Girl, you know you have a condition,

- you know there's a treatment. - What will a doctor tell me?

That I don't know who I am, I must find myself...

- Ray... - I already know all that.

That I feel like an empty shell, that I need someone to fill me.

Everything can be controlled.

If I go to a shrink, I'll have to remember

all the shit I did. I'm not in the mood.

I'm at a happy moment in my life, with Edu.

- I don't want to ruin that. - It's up to you, Ray.

And what about the ring?

I saw so many beautiful ones...

One prettier than the other... But we were in a hurry,

we'll take a look again later.

There was a wonderful one, sparkly...

I want to see it.

OK, fine.

Arrested? Why did they arrest him?

They believed that hooker that crashed in here.

It's now in the hands of an unfriendly commissioner.

And Edu went there to talk to her?

He was right here!

Calm down, my office got the habeas corpus.

I'm heading there right away.

Where's Edu?

He... had to work something out with Dias.

So that's it? I work, study, I volunteer at GAV...

I have a private life, with friends, girlfriend...

And on my free time, I go around killing women.

Is that it, commissioner?

That's what we'll find out.

And you reached this bright conclusion

because you linked a demonstration kit

to a hysterical woman who thinks she knows me?

You never mentioned you took Cassiana's calls at GAV.

Right, there's that too.

Good...

So much evidence, huh, commissioner?

I didn't even know her name was Cassiana.

I only knew her voice.

Why don't you investigate her boyfriend?

He threatened her, not me.

- Dias, you know me, please... - In my job, we know no one.

Where were you on these days?

I won't give any statement.

He'll wait for his lawyer to come.

I won't talk to you even with 10 lawyers by my side.

You're being accused of a serious crime,

won't you clarify things out?

I have a right to remain silent and I'll use that right.

Would you rather still be arrested?

I'll only talk before a judge.

Then you'll remain arrested.

Take him.

The burden of proof is the accuser's, commissioner.

I'm a lawyer, too.

Buddy, I really need to talk to my lawyer.

Don't take too long.

Hey, baby...

Hi. Where are you?

I'm at a friend's house, my battery's running low.

Baby, does anyone at home know we're seeing each other?

Of course not.

- Are you sure? - Of course I am.

Why would I tell? So my mom would keep tabs on me?

Yeah... Tell me.

Of course I want to see the crime scene.

You still haven't kept your promise.

Really?

When?

Today I can't...

But tomorrow, don't stay at home too much,

I'll call you as soon as I can.

And then we'll see.

Baby, your dad can't find out, or things will go south.

No, that's fine. I'll say I have practice after school.

Have a good night, beautiful.

Tomorrow you'll see lots of things you've never seen.

And a lot more. OK?

OK. Kisses. Bye.

I'll start with you, Dias.

That's right, Assis, we'll charge Edu.

Come on, Dias... "Edu, the women killer"?

What, are you desperate because you can't solve the case?

- You're like a machine-gun now. - We're not desperate, Assis.

I wouldn't make such an accusation

if I didn't have grounds, evidence...

Evidence, what evidence? Do you call this evidence?

If I talk to the governor, you're out by tomorrow.

I don't give a shit about the governor. There's no deal.

- Calm down, Dias. - Very well...

RELEASE PERMIT

Where is he?

Motherfucker.

Escort dr. Assis to his cell.

This man has the governor's ears.

I know what we'll do.

We'll leak it to the press.

I doubt the governor would punish us if the public knows

that the police has a suspect.

The judge granted a habeas corpus. Let's go.

What's going on, Assis? What's up with Dias?

He's up to something, and you're his scapegoat.

He's doing all he can to paint you as the serial killer.

The serial killer?

Do they have a warrant for my house?

Not that I know of, but probably, Edu.

They want a scandal.

Unbelievable.

Don't worry...

- What is it, Dias? - We arrested Edu, but...

You don't believe this, do you, Vera?

You know me better than anyone here.

Let's go, Edu.

See you soon, Edu.

We'll turn this around, I filed for preventive detention.

It's not just my candidacy, Edu.

I'm a very extreme man.

But there are lines I can't cross.

Not even to win an election.

I didn't do this, senator.

You know me.

You've been around me, you know my character, my values.

They chose me to save the system's credibility,

they needed to point fingers at someone, but me?

Why?

What do they have against me, senator?

Nothing. Assumptions, that's all.

All I can think is they want to turn you against me.

If you're the tiniest bit guilty,

just an iota of the guilt they're attributing to you,

or any other guilt they haven't attributed to you yet,

now's the time to tell me everything.

I'm completely shocked about this accusation, senator.

Even knowing it won't pan out, because I'm innocent.

This stain won't go away.

This big wound in our image won't go away.

I believe in you.

Thank you.

I won't keep you as a substitute.

But you can count on me for everything else.

I trust in you.

We feel so small...

so vulnerable, when it's more than one against you.

It's a whole system against you.

You're not alone.

Well, don't say I didn't invite you to come.

Dias, you invited me to a party, not to observe a suspect,

who, by the way, was never a suspect to you.

You still can't understand my way of handling things.

Dias, I'm not an expert

in guessing what people are thinking.

Sure...

Only serial killers.

Are we competing, is that it?

No.

Getting in each other's way, I'd say.

There's something we still haven't talked about.

And it's weighing down on us.

Maybe it's between you and your wife, Dias.

- Enough of this. - Vera, wait... Vera.

What's this, Edu? Why do you have a cast at home?

You have nothing broken...
