Forbidden to Forbid Page #4

Please, Letcia, don't.

Listen to me.

- We are going to do something.

- They will kill him!

Listen to me!

No, they won't.

We are going

to help him, OK?

We'll do something about it.

Was it your hands

or your mouth

Can you drive, please?

Why?

I'm not feeling well,

I'm a little drunk.

Me too.

Do you want more?

Look at that palace!

"Love's House. "

Have you ever visited

a palace like that?

It's half-price for students.

Not like this one.

But I think we should

change the subject.

Yes, definitely.

- Do you believe in UFO's?

- Yes, I do.

I hope we are abducted

and taken to another planet.

- Let's go for a swim.

- No way!

- Stop being a wussy.

- No!

- You're no fun!

- No, Letcia.

You're so pale!

Come on!

I'm on my underwear.

- You're so pale!

- I hate the sun!

Paulo!

Stop it!

Paulo!

F***!

F*** you, man!

Now I'll have a thing

called scan.

Don't worry,

it's no big deal.

What's wrong with you?

It's nothing, Rosinha.

Tell me.

I've got something

to tell you.

What is it?

Why are you so troubled?

It's because of a girl.

So you're in love!

Maria de Lourdes, please.

Is she married?

I wish.

It's worse than that.

She's the girl

of someone I know.

I understand.

Someone you know?

Friend or relative?

Take a rock salt bath,

light a candle and pray.

In those moments,

only God can help us.

Or maybe...

Why don't you just do it?

- Let's go!

- All right.

What will you specialize in?

I haven't made up

my mind yet.

Why did you decide

to become a doctor?

The mystery of death

has always fascinated me.

What is the sense of living

and turning into dust?

Are you serious?

Of course!

Don't you believe in God?

No.

I do.

I'm a Catholic.

You believe in anything:

in God, in anything I say,

even in soap operas.

Why are you

talking like that?

- I'm not OK.

- Stop smoking this crap!

- It's forbidden to forbid.

- Don't give me this nonsense!

This is harming you.

When you smoke,

you become a jerk.

Superficial, uninteresting...

A perfect idiot.

There's something else here

harming me.

Are you in love with him?

- I like him a lot.

- Are you in love with him?

- It's none of your business!

- Are you or not?

Damn! It is none

of your business!

I think this medicine is crap,

it's too weak

for this treating tuberculosis.

It's just too weak.

So you are Michael's father.

Do you go with him

to his games?

No, I don't.

Has he improved

his performance at school

since he started

playing soccer?

No, he's a good student.

He comes home from school

and does his homework

right away.

That's the first

thing he does.

Why are you so quiet today?

You were kind of rude.

You did not even listen

to what people were saying.

- You think so?

- What's wrong?

I don't know.

I'm kind of worried.

Worried about what?

Nothing.

Forget it.

What's wrong?

I don't know.

I think...

I think I'm very confused.

I'm too tired.

I want to give up

on everything.

I compete with

my own shadow.

Is it because

I like Sociology?

Or because I'm black

and have to prove I'm better?

I'm tired of this!

You're the best in class,

everyone knows that.

You're not

the best-looking one,

but you're very charming.

Any girl could notice that.

What about you?

Let's see what happens, OK?

Paulo.

Why did you call me here?

I...

was thinking...

about Rosalina;

have you spoken to her?

I changed the subject.

I began to talk nonsense.

Aren't we going

to do anything?

Don't insist!

What do you want to do?

I don't know what to do.

Do you?

Do you know what I think?

This whole thing is a mess.

I just want to give up.

At least you have your method

for forgetting things.

I don't.

Why the long faces?

We're philosophizing.

- Are you hitting on her?

- Don't be stupid, Len!

You're hurting me, man.

- I'll break your face.

- Go ahead and do it.

Be careful with her,

she's not what she seems to be.

- Hello, my little princess.

- Hi, Len.

Your friend said

you were here.

Well, I'm leaving.

Where are you going?

To accomplish

an impossible mission.

I'm going with you.

Why are you excluding me?

Wake up, wake up

you whining black girl

Stop being so lazy

Who are those two angels?

They are our friends.

This is Letcia

and this is

my bosom buddy Len.

No. He is

my bosom buddy.

We brought these for you.

- Chocolate!

- I have some chocolate here.

Pick one.

What if I pick

the wrong one?

You have one chance only.

Let's see...

You're great!

You're the best doctor

in town!

Are you all happy?

- Let's go for a walk.

- All right.

We'll be right back.

A letter from Little Cacau.

I feel so sorry for her!

No one can help her,

no one can help her son.

I'm a very lucky person.

I have everything.

Are you happy now, Rosinha?

Things will get better, you'll see.

Look.

Cinzio sent you this.

He filled it with kisses for you.

Paulo.

You have a good heart.

This was his amulet.

It's yours.

It will close your body.

He sent it to you.

Don't try to fool me.

It's yours.

Keep it.

Damn life!

All right, he will testify.

So it's him and the cop

before the judge.

Who do you think

they will believe?

The cop!

They don't believe us,

they don't even care

about what we say.

I don't believe it!

He didn't do anything.

Besides there are lots of

witnesses, everybody saw it.

Witness?

What are you talking about?

There is no such a thing

as a witness here.

If you live here and testify,

guess what happens to you?

You are an informer, a rat.

You're finished.

They'll burn you up.

Mrio.

Look at me.

Do you think I don't know

how things work here, man?

First, we are going

to get the kid out of here.

Trust me.

- I'm not going to jail!

- You won't go to jail.

You are underage.

The Law will protect you.

The only protection

I need is a gun

to kill the bastards

who killed my brother!

You are not a criminal!

Forget it!

I know, but they

want to turn me in.

They'll take me to jail!

What is your problem?

Calm down, Cacau!

Relax, Brother.

- Calm down!

- Hold on, Cacau.

Calm down, man!

Take it easy!

Listen to me!

I promised your mom

to take care of you.

You said that last time

and didn't do anything!

One step at a time.

We are here to help you.

- I want to see my mom!

- Don't worry.

You will see her.

Shouldn't we talk to Rosa

and let her see the boy?

No, first we have

to get him out of here.

Sh*t! That's why

I don't want kids.

I want at least

half a dozen.

We'll take him to our place, but

how do we get him out of here?

In Letcia's car.

No, let's leave her

out of this.

I'm going to call my mom

and take him to Braslia.

- He'll be safe there.

- We'll take him together.

She'll take better care of him

than she took of me.

- Damn!

- Let's go. Easy!

- Name.

- Paulo de Almeida Brando.

- Name.

- Len Alves Maranho.

Did you come here

for drugs?

- No, sir.

- No, sir.

We came here

to do research for school.

I want to see

your backpacks.
