How long does your orgasm last?

...with a very different mindset.

How long does it last?

She opened a brothel to please

the gem buyers the Frenchman had,

businessmen, politicians, landowners...

Pour l'orgasme!

And everyone who had a lot of money.

The couple had a son called Pierre,

a mix of the worst parts of both.

You too, daddy.

Bon voyage!

And don't make too much trouble.

We are going to make a lot of trouble.

That one.

What's up, man?

No!

No!

Stop!

Scream.

Are you the Frenchman?

Yes.

And who are you?

Where is Seven Ears?

He hasn't come back home.

He went to live

with his family in Paraba.

I've lost my best killer.

Put me in his place.

What do you think?

I'm a good shooter. You can ask around.

What are you laughing at?

You're hired.

Mutey.

Mutey will tell you

how things work around here, ok?

To welcome him,

the Frenchman prepared him a surprise.

What's your name?

It was there,

that night,

that he chose his own name.

Cabeleira.

The name of his chapbook hero.

Cabeleira...

Hi...

to do what you did to me,

you have to pay.

Pay?

Cabeleira succumbed to the temptation

and had to find more stones.

So, the Frenchman told Mutey

to tell him the procedure.

He told him about the offering,

the dead man picture on the goat's horn

and the stones he'd get.

He started killing whoever wouldn't sell

their land to the Frenchman.

Cabeleira couldn't understand

how someone could own the land,

if the land was there

before the person was born.

To him, the land shouldn't belong to us,

but we should belong to the land.

But he wanted to get the stones so much,

that soon he became

the Frenchman's favorite killer.

With the pebbles he earned,

he became another man,

and he would spend all

at the Blanchard's brothel.

Cabeleira had never been treated so well.

He was delighted

with the power of the stones.

He wanted more and more of them.

Thank you, everyone.

I'd like to take this opportunity

to dedicate...

the following song to the love of my life.

I wish you a happy birthday,

my beloved one.

Oh, how fortunate I am

Oh, how has God blessed me

For having found in this world

Someone as cruel as me

Two poisonous snakes

Love and hate intertwined

The knife and the pistol

Walking side by side

Soul mates in cruelty

Partners in destruction

The screams of our victims

Feed our passion

Oh, how fortunate I am

Oh, how has God blessed me

For loving so violently

Violently

A man as violent as me

The torture, the ambush

My heart beats wildly

A hanging at nightfall

He is my prince and I am the princess

A family murdered

A house burned down

Loving each other wildly

Between the smoking debris

Oh, how fortunate I am

How fortunate I am

Oh, how has God blessed me

For having found in this world

Someone as cruel as me

What about Seven Ears?

Well,

Cabeleira forgot about Seven Ears.

Why?

He was already cursed by the pebbles.

He had already taken lives

in exchange for the blue stones.

All the men who got their blood

stained by the stones were cursed.

Or did you forget?

So he started to kill everything, huh?

No.

Cabeleira never killed women or children.

That's why the Frenchman

would use the Cangaceiros.

He ordered the hitmen

to invade properties,

set the houses on fire

and kill the families.

No... My son!

To put an end to the Cangaceiros,

the Monkeys showed up.

For me, they were equally mean,

but they were allowed to,

because they wore an uniform.

What are you afraid of?

Go on, crawling.

What are you afraid of?

I will put you in a bag.

What is this all about?

I'm gonna piss over you.

But they could be killed as well.

Sobral,

a tough man with an empty heart.

A dangerous type of animal

that had nothing to lose.

He took advantage of the

lieutenant's uniform,

cut the head off of the corpses

and arrived in town disguised as a Monkey.

Soon, everyone knew about the Lieutenant

and his bravery.

Whose were they?

Cangaceiros.

But in a lawless city, dead cangaceiros

are no good for the police chief.

Hey, chief.

The Monkey with the heads is here.

I'm here to ask you

who protects this town's cangaceiros.

We don't have any cangaceiros here.

Oh, really?

Four Eyes drew the dead men faces

for the Frenchman.

Anyone he found suspicious would be drawn.

He only had to wait

for the Frenchman's signal to kill.

He had obsessions and had been a follower

of Egum since he was a child.

That's why he put drawings and stones

in the offerings he made.

It was the safest place,

since no one would mess with an offering.

Four Eyes was the boss of Scar.

A freed slave who would do everything

Four Eyes demanded.

On Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread...

And forgive us for our trespasses, as we

forgive those that trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil.

- Amen.

- Amen.

I'll wash my hands.

Renata, you and cousin should do the same.

My hands are clean.

But mine are not.

Haven't you touched them?

We're using forks and knives to eat.

Right, we'll see.

May I know what's so funny around here?

Tell me, Loony,

what were you laughing about?

What were you laughing at?

My God! Stop!

What were you laughing about?

Answer me! What were you laughing about?

Those who play with monkeys,

fall from the branches and get hurt.

- Now I'll have to wash my hands again.

- What was that about?

I know he came to town

with a Monkey yesterday.

He doesn't have a clue.

I'm sure he just liked the man's uniform.

So he'd better understand!

Those who hang around with Monkeys,

have short lives, Loony.

Short lives.

Which room is the Lieutenant's?

Fernanda went after Sobral,

looking for justice.

Excuse me, Lieutenant...

But she mustn't waver.

What do you want, girl?

That Frenchman bastard burned our land

and killed my family.

My Brother Loony and I

are the only survivors.

You've met Loony.

Be careful.

Cabeleira is the Frenchman's hitman.

He's the greatest killer ever.

You seem to be a good man.

Fernanda saw in the Lieutenant's eyes

the chance to avenge her family.

Don't disappoint me.

For God's sake, don't disappoint me.

Damn, you scared me!

Are you picking meat with your hands?

You have no business

with that Monkey, do you?

I've already sketched his face.

It is in my place.

The Lieutenant's?

You didn't hear anything I said here, ok?

No, I didn't.

I've got my eyes on you.

I am the law around here.

It's late, cousin. I have to go.

Yes, do that. Go.

I still have to buy

a few things around here.

Because your cousin can't pick meat.

Stay away from there,

or Four Eyes will kill you.

- Where is the dead man's sketch?

- What are you talking about?

Is it true that he drew the Lieutenant?

- God, calm down.

- Where is it, cousin?

- You don't know what you are doing.

- Tell me where it is.

When Four Eyes arrives, he will kill you.

- Where's that sketch?

- You're all I have.
