Tiago.

Tiago.

Okay, Bibi.

Get your collar, go on.

The figures are alarming.

We need to take control.

Unfortunately,

there's nothing else for it.

- But what about the board?

- Let's wait until the end of the month.

What if we go

multi-manager? Marcos?

The situation is very serious.

From now on, you're

just shareholders.

Hi.

Hi.

How are you?

Good, and you?

Not so bad.

When are you thinking of going?

I don't have to.

They can get by without me.

I think you should,

at least for a few days.

Giulia, right now, I can't pass

the fund overto another manager.

Hello?

Hello Marcos?

It's Tiago.

- Giulia.

- Nice to meet you.

Tiago.

Let's go?

Have you told anyone?

I told uncle Dante.

He and Moreira will tell

whoever else is necessary.

This is Bibi.

Can I come in?

So you've decided

to stay here then?

- Do you mind?

- No.

I think it's a good idea.

I'll sort this out as soon as...

as soon as I cool off a bit, R.

Right, but don't mess about,

this could be dangerous.

No, I promise.

Fair enough,

see you tomorrow, then.

- Okay, talk to you later.

- Sure, see you.

- Thanks R.

- Sure, bye.

Bye.

Look what I found.

You still have yours?

What?

Lost it, didn't you?

I think I lost it

the same day she gave it to us.

Look at that, Mr. Armando.

Such a shame you didn't get a

chance to see yourfather again.

He would have loved to see you.

- I'm sorry, Tiago.

- Thanks Moreira.

- Marcos?

- Yes.

My name's Osvaldo. I'm a doctor.

I knew yourfatherfor many years.

Thanks for coming, Osvaldo.

He shared some very important

matters with me...

this took me by surprise.

This is my number.

Call me when you can talk.

What's it about?

It's a very serious matter.

Call me, please.

Who's that?

Afriend of Armando's.

He built the Berrini building.

And having sold almost

everything before completion...

he bought another eight plots

with the same loan.

Eight.

This was in July,

you can imagine the rest.

Well, what's done is done.

Have you thought of a solution?

I'm Armando's lawyer,

but the company's yours.

No. It's Tiago's, Moreira.

And from what I can see,

he's been paid very well

to run the business.

But you need to run

the company together,

he can't do it on his own.

I'll be in my office

if you need me.

Do you like kids?

Kids.

- Kids?

- Yeah.

Very much.

Do you and Marcos want kids?

We don't talk about it.

Maybe later...

in the future.

I've never understood why

he never came back to Brazil.

We kept growing further apart.

Lost the habit.

- Hello?

- Doctor?

- I'm on my way.

- Ok.

Take a seat.

He'll be with you in a moment.

Marcos, thanks for coming.

I hope you've got proof.

- Calm down.

- I am calm, but...

Loweryour voice, please.

She's right overthere.

Let's talk in my office?

It's all there.

Your sister was admitted

two years ago.

How old is this girl?

the mental age of a child.

Yourfather had Manuela

admitted here provisionally...

after Ana, her mother, died.

She had a long period of attacks

and yourfather couldn't cope.

Marcos, what I'm about to say, I've

been telling Armando for a long time.

Manuela's problems

no longer require internment.

You are herfamily.

You have to look after her.

- Can't she stay here?

- I can't keep her here anymore.

Why not?

Because she needs to be

reintegrated into the family...

otherwise she'll regress.

- And if I pay...

- This is the clinic's final position.

Hello?

Hello, Marcos?

Hi Giorgio, how are things?

Good and you?

We're fine.

The reaction to the merger

was not good.

Shares fell 12% today.

The forecast is for a

further fall tomorrow.

The market is

overreacting, Giorgio.

I think ourfund should buy.

I can't do that on my own,

you know. You have to come back,

I need you here.

Alright, I'll see what I can

do about the tickets.

Okay, I'll wait for you.

- Right, take care.

- See you soon, then.

- Bye, bye.

- Bye.

Hi. I'm in a meeting,

I can't talk now.

Call me as soon as you're

finished, I need to talk, urgently.

All right,

I'll call you later, then.

- Ok, bye.

- Bye.

- Hi.

- Hi.

Sorry I'm late.

How did it go today?

Tough.

Have you confirmed the flight?

All done.

Are you okay?

Is everything ok

with the company?

I think there's a solution.

We'll see if my brother and

Moreira are up to it.

Have you changed your mind?

I'm tired...

Come here then.

Your bag looks like

a Pollock painting.

You need some help?

Yes, thanks.

- Good morning.

- Good morning.

Sorry I didn't call you yesterday,

therejust wasn't time.

So Tiago, I'm leaving tomorrow.

We need to talk.

I understand.

I suppose you know

the state the company is in.

Of course.

And have you been talking to

Moreira about this?

We decided to sell three plots

to solve the debt problem.

It's not as simple

as that, Tiago.

I know, but it'll work out.

Can't you stay a bit longer?

Another week?

I can't. I have to get back.

It's in your hands.

Tell Marcos to call me

before you leave.

Have a nice trip and let me know

as soon as you arrive.

Sure. I have to hang up now.

Okay. A kiss.

A kiss to you too. Bye.

Right, but what do

you want me to do?

I live here, but it's not

just my problem, it's ours!

And I'm not going to do a f***ing thing.

- Stop being childish...

- Me, childish?!

You're the one leaving!

Anyway, I don't believe it!

It's true, I've checked it.

- I don't give a damn!

- We have to deal with this, Tiago!

I don't give a damn!

What was that about?

Nothing.

Achildish tantrum.

Yourturn, Tiago.

I'm out.

Five grand.

Five and I'll raise you two.

I'll go with seven.

I'll see you.

Two pairs.

Three Jacks.

I don't know why

you still bother coming here.

I'll be back in a minute.

Andr, your deal.

Giovanni,

the game's turning in my favor.

I had a problem just then, but...

You've already run up over 300 grand.

Three hundred thousand!

You want to get me

in trouble with Rodriguez?

No, no, you don't need

to say anything to him.

Relax, I'm sorting out the inheritance,

I'll square things with you guys.

Unless you square something now,

you're not leaving here. Get it?

Hello?

Good evening, can I speak

to Mr. Marcos Bonelli.

Tiago?

Sh*t!

We monitorthe patients' rooms

during the night.

Fortheir safety.

Just picture. No sound.

Look at this.

What's that in her hand?

It's a photo.

Can I see the photo?

Mr. Marcos?

Mr. Marcos?

She's awake now.

Do you know who I am, Manuela?

I'm Marcos.

This one here.

Daddy spoke about you.

What did he say?

That when he couldn't

come here...

to see me anymore,

my brother Marcos would visit me.

This is my letter,

which is the same as that

of my older brother,

my brother Marcos.

When he can't

come to see me anymore,

my brother Marcos will visit me.

What are you doing here?

Why did you come?

When he can't come

to see me anymore,

my brother Marcos will visit me.

Because he can't come here to see me?

Why? He's not coming back?

- Why?

- No.
