"No, you don't." "Life isn't what you were told it is." "Yes, true, I killed your father but only after he killed Sónia, your sister." "I am a woman, I am not sorry for what I've done, only God can judge me!" "You never wanted me to even think about him, mum, you never thought you were destroying my dear world." "Get your feet off the seat." "talk, my dear, talk." "Everybody has to get rid of the pain inside..." "It's you!" "How can you admit you killed?" "Aren't you ashamed to confess it?" "However bad what he did was it doesn't justify murder." "Mum, he was my dad." "He wasn't like that Egidio with whom you betrayed our lives." "Life knows how to revenge itself." "Ta ta, mate." "Aren't you sleepy?" "Can't stand nights like this, everything is still." "What's still?" "Do you love me, how much?" "I can't tell, I mean..." "Why can't I come as well?" "Where?" "To the theatre with you." "Because I don't want you to." "You have to stay here and wait for me." "I don't want to mix up things." "You are the good side of my Iife, I don't want to mix it all." "Am I good for nothing?" "Is that the way you love me?" "Yes, it is." "Big love." "It is." "I never loved anyone as I Iove you." "well then, Iet me come!" "Listen, a job is a job, the two of us is different." "Man's nut is to create thought." "What a fucking idea, rob a theatre!" "Why not the parliament, while you are at it?"

"Listen, if you play the macho in cop's land, the bastards will know it and the shit will hit the fan!" "It doesn't close, fuck it..." "Don't fuck about!" "It's upside down how the fuck you want to close it?" "!" "I warned you, I did!" "S.Domingos patch is controlled by Neguinhas." "Jeez, it turns but doesn't open." "Fuck this for a game of soldiers, don't care a fuck for the theatre." "Doesn't open, press it, dickhead." "Gomes wants the mixing table, two umatic videos and two revox." "He'II give us 3 monkeys and we'II go on from there." "Fuck it." "Some people are never happy with what they have." "For fuck's sake, two hundred grams, isn't that enough?" "!" "You go up in life with a kilo and a half." "I have been there and back, you know." "You couldn't tell." "Listen, mate!" "She thinks it works, that head?" "You had the idea, but you don't get nicked, so shut it." "I don't, my arse!" "She doesn't go anywhere..." "Ducky..." "Let's talk." "You have to listen to me sometimes." "Ducky, Iet's talk." "I'm not asking for the moon." "It's only twenty grand..." "I need only twenty grand!" "I never ask for anything..." "You get paid like me..." "Listen, ducky, it's not Iike you, if it was I couId live on it..." "You know how I am!" "When asked I give!" "I am human, I don't like to see suffering."

"I won't lend a penny more this month." "Listen, love please, please listen." "You didn't have to mix with Maria's boyfriend, or whatever he is!" "You know perfectly he is a criminal and you are not!" "I won't give you any more money for him to buy drugs." "I am afraid, Gigi." "You're not strong." "I only want to protect you, you know that, don't you?" "No, I only know you don't want to give me the money I need." "Where's the little statue?" "!" "Don't know." "It wasn't there anymore this morning, after Maria left." "The première is today..." "really?" "You took your time to arrive!" "I was beginning to lose hope, I thought you wouldn't come." "You think too much, you know." "It's things at home, relations are very muddled." "Because of Maria..." "even so I managed to avoid a Iot..." "julia thinks you are not a good influence on Maria..." "It's 20 grand." "It was 1 5 before." "It was." "Want a half a pint?" "I am in a hurry." "Know what I mean?" "!" "Can't you wait a mo?" "If you could I would go up." "I can't."

"It's for the lipstick." "You look tense." "Don't worry, the play only lasts three hours but they'II love it." "They love opening nights  even when they don't, they still clap a Iot." "In life all is relative, it's not worth the worry." "They never understand anything..." "They are all here." "Don't be like that." "Everybody knows it is your first time and we are all rooting for you." "If you miss a cue you know, just look at me and I start." "You look so pretty!" "With a face like yours you don't even need to be good." "I am joking." "Have you seen the scarf Gigi gave me?" "So tacky!" "But he wants me to wear it all the time..." "Don't be nervous, it's noticeable on stage!" "How can you say that?" "!" "Don't you feel ashamed?" "You don't even think of your father, who trusts you." "How could you do that to father?" "How could you?" "You would understand if you were married to a man you hated." "No, don't say that," "I don't want to hear it." "You will." "I am speaking to you as a woman, not as a mother to her daughter." "That relationship doesn't mean anything between us." "You called me miserable and shameless." "I'II have you know that, that's how I felt for 20 years." " Each time I gave myself..." " Stop that, leave me alone!" "You always hated father, then!" "Not always." "I even loved him before I married." "However incredible it may seem now." "He was handsome, in his lieutenant's uniform." "He was silent, mysterious and romantic." "But my marriage turned my romantic ideas into a disgust." "congratulations." "Listen, love..." "What do you want?" " Adriano is waiting for me." " How much do you want?" "20 grand..." " I will give you 1 0." " Can't be!" "At least 1 5." "Tonight you stay out." " What have I done?" " Nothing." "Why then?" "Because I say so, I want it so!" "I thought you didn't remember me anymore."

"No." "If you want, I will go and you won't see me anymore." "I'II go now." "I'm going." "Aren't you going back to brazil?" "Of course not." "Are you staying?" "We are husband and wife, aren't we?" "Let me sleep with you." "You only want me because she doesn't want you today, isn't it?" "I want you, I want to be with you tonight." "She came to me with that idiotic scarf story, it was me who bought it for you to give her." " And you?" " Nothing." "She tried to annoy me, I didn't react." "I stayed silent." "In the end, she slammed the door, called me a whore." "She's completely nuts, you have to be very patient, LiIita." "But I am fed up, fed up, fed up!" "You know whom Gigi loves." "Gigi... that's to her." "I know." "To you I am VirgiIio... all over." ""Divorced, living in BobadeIa," ""with house and steady job," ""wants to meet gentleman, not older than 35," ""tall, dark, light eyes" ""for friendship and other purposes."" "Hark." "Here is the beast!" ""I pray, secrecy."" "What is secrecy, mate?" "It's to lie." "To lie!" "?" "!" "allowed out, were you?" "That's it, treasure." "I'II keep you company." "You are cute, I had never seen you so close." "Are you trying to lure him away from home?" "Who, me?" "No." "Pity!" "Are you afraid of me?" "I won't harm you." " I know." " Do you?" "Your boyfriend has arrived." "I was here already." "You did well." "Do you have the lolly?" "He even has a new lover." "I need to talk to you." "Let's talk." "What was I saying?" "I don't remember." "I am going mad!" " I have to go." " Wait, are we that dirty?" "Bad taste, that's what you have." "Oh!" "Yeah?" "If I tell my mother everything, it will be a problem." "I don't understand a thing." "shall I draw it for you?" "If I open the trap, she'II eat you alive." "I only want what is good for the world." "Are you always like that?" "nearly always." "You would do me a favour if you took him away." "I would turn you into a princess." "Let's dance... very, very close..." "Let's go, VirgiIio, ok?" "!" "Just a second, please love?" "I swear, I'II give you 50 this week and the rest when I get paid." "A 1 00." "That's the remainder." "I am trying to make a deal with some publicity guys." "I have this for the moment." "Fuck, shit, this doesn't even pays for today." "We can't stay until we see you in knickers." "It isn't knickers this time!" "It's a new idea!" "Pay it and let's be quick about it." "feel like disappearing again?" "You still have the key?" "I thought you changed the lock." "Why would I?" "To stop me from entering..." "You haven't changed, after all, as if time hadn't passed" "or you never left." " You have been here all the time!" " No." "With me." "What happened?" "My lover in the soap told me the same thing, in yesterday's episode!" "You have to know everything, the truth." "To you, everything was so long ago, not so for me, I still can't talk about it." "Why don't you ask about our son?" "I thought Maria..." "No, Maria is not your daughter, she was born later." "Ours was a boy." "You ran away and I was left suffering, too much..." "I took too many pills and I lost our son." "Fucking hell!" "Now, you even come here to talk with that cunt for the world to hear." "Listen, me, little Victor, if I go inside is because I am a cunt, not because of some pretentious bastard." "You want an aspirin?" "I have some." "Listen, don't be clever with me." "What's the matter with you all?" "Fuck you rigid!" "Cut it out." "Do you want the aspirin, Vito?" "Hasn't anyone told you you are a dickface?" "!" "You weren't watching then?" "!" "Pity!" "I asked you to see how it came out, the scene we did together." "I Iook bad, so fat." "The light isn't very good either  and that young one..." "she's promising." "portugal is too small for her." "Don't you say anything?" "If you ask me." "What's the matter with you?" "Nothing." "Have you been to classes?" "Yes." "Is it going well?" "No." "I have something important to tell you." "Gigi is dead?" "Don't be silly!" "He didn't die, then!" "Why are you so rude?" "You made me that way." "Listen, Maria." "I won't take that from you!" " What?" " Don't talk to me like that." "How am I talking?" "As usual, rudely." "I was trying to talk to you..." "Ok." "It's not ok!" "You could make an effort, aren't you ashamed?" "Listen, I'm not in the mood for this, ok?" "Dear God, make my life peaceful and loving and may my enemies never pursue nor destroy me ever..." "This is my mother's car." "Is it?" "Yes, and it is not to be scratched." "Ok?" "Give me a cigarette." "Do you have light?" "Want me to smoke it for you?" "What the fuck, man?" "Heart, my heart!" "Face like a fart!" "clouds?" "What clouds, what clouds?" "You have there a lovely pair of thighs you can eat, and you, nothing!" "You'II end up a cuckold you will, don't complain for having too much weight on your shoulders, fuck this idiot!" "Cry, but don't bug me, man!" "Twice!" "You can't even do it once, Iet alone..." "He thinks of himself as a fucker, no way, old son." "Listen here!" "Want me to smash your face, as well?" "!" "Don't you come on to me like that, don't act the big man!" "I would fucking well think twice to smash a dame's face..." "I am loosing my temper, I am mad as fuck!" "I'II fucking well pluck your pubes, one by one." "It was a human being, singing, the best he could do, wasn't it?" "I was enjoying it very much." "And I Iike you very much." "I am desperate..." "To do that to an artist..." "It doesn't look bad on you." "Who is this shit?" "Who are you?" "I am a friend of your mother." "Another one?" "!" "I mean, it's difficult to explain," "I..." "I was your mother's husband  long ago, before you were born..." "You mean, mother had a brazilian husband?" "That's news." "I stayed over there for 20 years," "I came back the day before yesterday." "I think, I am again your mother's husband..." "I think so, I don't know..." "Why didn't you tell me you were here?" "!" "I was being stupid!" "I was looking at you..." "Making fun of me?" "You look pretty when you laugh..." "Don't you Iike it, Iike this?" "Yes, but a little less..." "It was a stab!" "It was a knife!" "A cut!" "Trying to impress me, are you?" "You want?" "It's good, isn't it?" " It's awful." " What are you doing here?" "What is this shit?" "I asked you a question!" "I am not deaf." "It's my fault, I clean it up." "You don't have time, you have to take me to the theatre." "You said you didn't want me to go." "Now I want." "You don't want to go now?" " Yes, I do." " You can see her in the soap..." " No!" " Why not?" "Because I said so." "Let's go, I am late." "I'II go with you." "No way." "And please clean that!" "Leave her alone, girl!" "Shit, what a mood!" "Come with me." "You never stop, do you?" "Sometimes..." "Not often." "More or less." "I'm off." "Why?" "To avoid asking questions." "Then ask." "When you left, did she kick you out or you left first?" "I Ieft." "Why?" "Because you wanted to?" "She now has that slime..." "Who?" "It's a theatre guy, Gigi..." "He is not at home now because you are there, but before, he even slept there." "That was before." "Are you going away again?" "No." "Promise." "Yes." "Look at me..." "Come here..." "I want to see joy in those eyes." "Don't you miss my sexual skills...?" " Who is it?" " It's ÁIvaro." "please put the coat here!" "Start." "For the cab." "You don't know what you are talking about." "Look at me." "Look at me so that I am sure you are listening." "I killed your son!" "It is a lie, you know that?" "You left me alone, pregnant." "My only wish was to avenge myself, that's why I had an abortion, that's why I killed your son." "I warned you, I did." "Lázaro had to show off." "Great prick." "You should be driving a toy car." "Fuck the loony." "Lick my arse." " Listen, I am a human being." " With a size like that?" "How the fuck did you do that?" "Listen!" "Easy!" "I was driving!" "It's not his fault, it's the bastards who let him drive!" "Was it her?" "Yes." "She realised she doesn't love me any more..." "I see." "You said you were not going away." "Yes, I did." "Fuck." "I feel like going there and smash all that shit." "Come home with me." "If you come with me, she won't send you away." "She will." "She did it once, she will do it again." "I think I'm going to cry." "If you do, I'II cry also." "I won't do it then." "Thanks." "I would be embarrassed." "I am always embarrassed about anything that's beautiful." "Go on, go home..." "I am an orphan." "Aren't you being silly, girl!" " Yes, I am." " Look at me when I talk to you!" "I can see you in the mirror." "Bad luck..." " Don't you get on my nerves!" " Me, get on your nerves?" "Shut up!" " He was my father!" " He wasn't your father!" " So that you keep that slime..." " Shut up!" "Did you know I was pregnant when he left me?" " You didn't know that I am sure!" " I did know." "It was his fault I had the miscarriage." "He killed your brother." "I knew it already." "You don't know anything." "I Ioved him so much," "I was so in love." "I was so desperate I slept with everyman I met..." "Did you pay them?" "Why don't beat the hell out of the slime instead?" " I am the slime?" " Who else?" "Want me to do something?" "And now I am talking to you as a woman, not as a mother to a daughter, a meaningless relationship." "You called me miserable and shameless." "I'II let you know that, that's how I felt for 20 years." " Every time I gave my body..." " Stop that!" "Let me go." "You always hated father then?" "Not always." "I even loved him before I married him, however incredible that may seem now." "He was silent and mysterious, romantic..." "Weren't you waiting for me?" "Anything happened?" "I was watching the play." "You left and I lost interest." "Is it because of the money?" "I'II stay here." "What?" "You give me the key to the box room and I forget the lolly you owe me... ok?" "Give me the key." "What are you going to do?" "Never mind." "No one will know." "I felt like coming." "Are you alright?" "Yes." "And you'II be also if you give me the key." " Give it here, ok?" " Adriano." "Is that the one?" "Give it." "Wait, wait..." "What do you think you are doing?" "Work is work!" "I won't take it, not from anyone, do you hear?" "I swear I didn't think you would do this to me!" "If you are going to shout, better close the door." "What for?" "No one minds!" "That's the way it is in the theatre, isn't it?" "I should have known." "But now it's going to be different!" "I mean, friendships are a lie, you know?" "I can do the same to you, you know?" "I have had enough of this!" " Do you mind lowering your voice?" " What have I done to you?" " tell me, what harm have I done?" " For god's sake!" " What's this?" "!" " That's the old lady's fault!" " She is a bit hysterical." " Come on love." "Be friends!" " She's jealous, her mush is rotting." " Want a slap?" "You try." "You are making me nervous, don't do it." "calm down." " You try, you whore." " Don't call me a cow!" "She didn't call you a cow she called you a whore!" "Get out of here!" "She didn't mean it, she was very nervous." "Didn't she, hell?" "Did you hear what she said?" "She's got problems with her daughter, if you know what I mean..." "No, and I don't want to." "What about me, still care about me?" "We have a guest artist!" " well?" " hold your horses!" "Listen, I can't disconnect this shit." " Wait there!" " clever dick!" " Come on..." " Don't get nervous." "We'II have trouble." "What a mess!" " Ok, ok..." " Let's go." "Where is Maria?" "Who the fuck knows?" "What do you want?" ""It is thought that security guard surprised the burglars..." ""... was pushed" ""and fell from the third floor, from the balcony to the stalls," ""dying instantly."" "It's wrong, mate!" "It's wrong." "I am not stupid or a cunt!" "Another human being dies and no one tells me anything." "I mean, I am driving, you're arguing and no one remembers to tell me!" "You think I am a fool?" "Listen, we know you are a human being." "Now, shut up." ""The burglars didn't manage" ""to complete their task."" "They didn't even achieve their goal." "Shut up." "I know!" "You tell me to shut up because I am not a fool and you are drunk, all right?" "No one wants to touch the stuff." "The geezers say, "not with blood on it."" "Did the guy fall on the stuff, Vito?" "Maria hasn't turned up since..." "Listen, listen!" "What the fuck are we going to do with that shit?" "I haven't seen Maria in 2 days..." "AII right, but what the fuck do we do?" "We bury all the shit in the mud, in the river?" "Listen, mate." "I don't give a shit." "Of course, no one tells me anything!" "No one told me they had thrown away Maria," "I liked her though..." "Fuck the loony!" "Listen, listen to me!" "This is like snooker, isn't it?" "It's not the girl who holds the cue, it's us, we have to cue!" "Listen, didn't you kill him with a cue?" "hold on!" "Can't you explain the loony that it's a fucking figure of speech!" "Bugger the loony!" "Listen!" "I mean!" "We are together, there's no fucking problem with the girl!" "That shit doesn't bring Maria back." "It does Adriano, mate!" "Friends are the best thing we have in life." "A pal is like lifelong suspenders." "Are you VirgiIio Lopes?" "Yes." "You'II have to come with us to the station, to explain some details about the burglary." "I know as much as anybody else...?" "That's it!" "Right on target!" "And the amount you know, that's what you have to tell us." "We're halfway there, don't you think?" "Are you VirgiIio Lopes, known as "snail" ?" "I told you so already." ""snail"?" "!" "Read the paper." "What do you want me to say?" "Not much!" "You'II come for a little stroll with us." "What do you think?" "And "clever", do you know him?" " I do." " What's going on?" "!" "They want to arrest me..." "He hasn't done anything!" "What have you done?" "I don't know... nothing..." "You did something, for sure." "He hasn't done anything." "Do you know this man?" "It's Adriano." "He doesn't know him." " That's it." " It is, is it?" "..." "He has to change, he can't go with you dressed like that." "What have you done?" "Nothing..." "Who killed the guy?" "I don't know..." "I only gave them the key..." "Is Maria in it as well?" "Was she who killed the guy?" "I don't know..." "Don't mention my daughter, do you hear me?" "If you do, I'II kill you!" "I didn't kill anybody, julia..." "Don't let them arrest me..." "Don't be a sissy." " I am an arsehole." " No, you are not..." "I am, I keep screwing up, I never understand anything..." "No, no, you are the most intelligent man in the world." "That's why he won a prize and goes with us on a trip!" "DaIiIa  will you marry me?" " I will." " She wants to marry me!" " congratulations." " Thanks." " I'II come and see you." "Nobody home." " Where is my daughter?" " Fuck it!" "Pardon my French!" "Adriano!" "There is a lady here to see you!" "I couId do you!" "..." "I want to talk to Maria!" "You want to talk to my wife?" "!" "She isn't your wife!" "And I want to talk to her!" "How do I know she wants to talk to you...?" "It's me..." "I know, so I see." "How did you know I was coming?" "!" "I guessed." "Maybe I couldn't find the place..." "Did you ever look for something and didn't find it?" "No." "You find things when you look for them." "I hanged it there for you to see as soon as you came in." "Dou you Iike it?" "Does it matter to you?" "It does." "I know nothing about painting, I don't give a fuck!" "Not for me." "Does your mother know you are here?" "eventually." "She'II be worried." " The fuck I care!" " Again?" "Let her worry if she wants to." "You mother is very patient with you." "This is a bit uncool." "I painted it myself." "Is it your room?" "Neat!" "Are you trying to defend her?" "I am." "But you even ran away from her..." "If you were my daughter, I would beat the shit out of you." "I am not, am I?" "Your luck." " Where do I crash?" " Wherever you want." "It was me who had to put up with her and her gigoIos." "I know how she is." "You don't know her." "The bitch envies everybody  a viper, she is..." "You don't think so, but you, you are very much like your mother." "I would rather die." " And me?" " I don't know!" "You should." "Are you making fun of me?" "No, I'm dead serious." "Are you annoyed with me?" "Of course not." "Are you staying here?" "If you want..." "I promise I'II put this shit in order tomorrow." "No shit!" "I am glad you invited me." "Me, invited you?" "You invited yourself!" "True... same thing, isn't it?" "almost." "Why?" "Don't you Iike me being here?" "I am not your type?" "!" "You don't like little girls wearing boots like mine?" "What's with the boots?" "!" "I don't know!" "Chicks don't wear boots like these, do they?" "Take them of..." "What?" "I can't." "Why?" "They are stuck, I never take them off." "No kidding?" "No kidding." "I'd say you are a bit hammered..." "Yes, I am." "It was smashing of you to invite me..." "I never saw you Iike this." "You don't know me, you only saw me 2 or 3 times!" "I know you very well." "I saw you several times..." "First time when I saved you from a good hiding." "Again when you left home, fuming, I followed you..." "I'd forgot about the geezers." "That time, on the lift, doesn't count." "I didn't see you!" "It does to me." "What did you think?" "When?" "The first time." "You wouldn't like it..." "You know..." "I thought you were my daughter..." "I liked the idea." "Me, being your daughter?" "I don't find it very funny." "What did you think of me?" "It clicked." "What?" "What's that?" "Can't tell you, or else you'II throw me out..." "You would be afraid of me." "Afraid of you?" "could be!" "May I?" "I think I am afraid of you." " Making fun of me again?" "!" " No." "I am serious." "Ok... can I take a pee?" "It's me." "What do you want?" "!" "I am Bia." " So what!" "What do you want?" "!" " Where is Álvaro?" "My father isn't in." "We don't need anything." "You can go." "Does he need anything else?" " Didn't you hear?" "Out!" " Fucking hell, what a bitch!" "What are you doing there?" "What's this?" "What the fuck is this?" "It's a pig." "Her name is Antónia." "Why did you send Bia away?" "Who is Bia?" "I don't like to live amongst shit." "Why did you bring it then?" "I don't like it either." "I want to talk to you." "Sit here." "I don't like to talk sitting down." "This is the way it goes..." "You can't stay here." "You have to warn your mother." "It doesn't make sense." "Who says I wanted to stay here?" "!" "Bugger off!" "Let me go!" "First you get the rubbish out of the entrance." "Didn't you say the house wasn't mine and I had to leave?" "No, I didn't." "And you lied." "You told Bia I didn't need anything." "Now, please get the rubbish out of the entrance." "I will and that's the Iast thing I do!" "I'm not finished yet!" "You don't need to." "Come and help with dinner." "Better wait for the pig to grow." "You better believe it." " Why did you get angry?" " I didn't, no..." "Not bad, no?" "Come..." "Come in!" "You're joking." "You spent your whole life joking, but not with me, not anymore." "You want me to let her stay?" "And who takes care of her?" "Me." "It can't be!" "Can't you see that?" " Go back to Lisbon, go." " It's not normal!" "A 20 year old girl locked up in a house, in a village, with a man she hardly knows!" " Are you finished?" " No!" "Did you know that she could be my daughter?" "You don't know what you are doing!" "I never did." "Didn't she tell you why she ran away from Lisbon?" "Ask her!" "You, pig, you see this?" "Antónia!" "Oh!" "Shit, she shit on the floor, pig, pig!" "What is this?" "Come here!" "Take that!" "Out, to the street." "Dirty pig!" "Where have you been?" "Did Antonia eat?" "Where did you go?" "!" "It must have been very important, to leave me here alone." "Where have you been?" "I was with your mother." "She knows you are here and demands that you go." "She knows where I am because you told her, you rat!" "Your mother said I don't know why you are here." "Why?" "I'm hiding from the cops!" "Or did you think I came because of you?" "!" "No one likes to be in jail, do they?" "!" "Listen." "I am not afraid of you!" "Breakfast." "The dungarees are yours, try them." "You fell off the bed." "I picked you up." "What?" "I didn't say anything." "What else did you do?" "What did I do?" "You know very well." "No, I don't." "You took advantage of me being asleep." "Think whatever you want." "Don't think because I am locked up here that you can take advantage." "Of what?" "Do you think I'II fuck a geezer old enough to be my father?" "Don't talk rubbish." "Nothing happened." "No?" "Of course not." "Sorry!" "Again, isn't it?" "Forget it." "Maria has a Iot of flaws, but she likes you very much, and I Iike her very much." "Here is the address." "How much do you want?" "Whose house is this?" "I don't know." "When are you going to get her?" "Listen, the cops are after me." "You have to go!" "She can't stay there by herself." "I'II think about it." "Don't you want the money?" "!" "Thank you." "What do you want?" "will you give me your hand?" "Yes." "Hug me!" "Why are you acting?" "!" "You're not... in love with her." "She is a kid, very young, very childish..." "She may never recover from what you would do to her." "I haven't done anything." "Send her away..." "You can, can't you?" "She is but a kid, any excuse will do." "You don't want to hurt her, do you?" "What do you mean?" "She is your daughter." "I was alone." "I am cold." "What is this?" "Don't you Iike it?" "A new character, isn't it?" "First you are fresh, now you're playing the kitten!" "It was just to see if you Iike me." "Where have you been?" "Nearby." "Doing what?" "You don't have to lie." "Were you with her?" "Yes." "Why?" "Am I not enough for you?" "jealous, kitten?" "could be..." "I forgot I married you." "It is not funny." "Are you crying?" "You can't live without her, can you?" "Yes, I can." "No, you can't." "She always treated you badly." "She left you for another guy, a disgusting one at that... she never even told me about you..." "I wouldn't do that to you..." "I wouldn't hurt you." "I wouldn't leave you." "Don't touch me." "I Iook ugly with makeup." "I've put it on for you to like me." "You don't have to kick me out, I know the way." "I told you, you look very much like your mother." "Yes, you did." "When I Iook at you, when you speak, you remind me of julia." "How I Ioved her, how we lived together..." "She was like you... we wanted a daughter who looked like her." "It's probably my fault if she is different nowadays." "Don't talk about her anymore, ÁIvaro." "I am Maria." "I know." "You don't understand what I am talking about," "I don't want you to love me." "I know, but I do." "I Iove you too, that's the reason." "How did you know where I was?" "I came to get you." "I'm not doing anything wrong!" "I couldn't care less." "I can't go back to Lisbon." "Or else they'II arrest me." "Do you want me to be arrested?" "I Iove you, Maria." "It was my fault that everything went wrong." "I don't know where I am going, but you are coming with me." "Come with me." "It was my idea..." "The cops are after me," "VirgiIio was arrested." "I'm fucked." "I have no one else, only you." "Let's run away." "I Iove you, Maria." "I don't want to leave my father." "Don't leave me." "If you don't run away with me I'd rather be in the joint." " Come with me." " I told you I don't want to go!" "You don't want to?" "You have no option!" "You come with me and that's final!" " I Ieft the other guys to pick you up." " You've done wrong." "You come with me, you hear!" "Or else I'II kill you!" "You, the guy inside and then I'II kill myself." "Come with me..." "AII right, I'II come with you, but wait a day." "That one, I won't sell." "Then, it is mine." "It's all yours." "Do you know why?" "Because I can't choose..." " Maria." " It's me." "I'm coming." "Ok..." " I'm coming to get you." " See you." "hold him, hold him!" "Got him?" "!" "I'II see if there are others!" "What's going on?" "What happened?" "I don't know!" "Can I come in?" "Come in." "Give me light." "Don't look." "Look at me." "You have always hated father, haven't you?" "Not always." "I even loved him before I married him, incredible as it may seem now." "He looked handsome in his lieutenant's uniform." "He was silent, mysterious and romantic." "marriage changed my romanticism to disgust, very quickly." "And I was born of your disgust." "I always knew it, mother, since I was a child, when I came near you with love, you pushed me away." "Since I can remember, I felt your disgust." "I hate you," "I have the right to do so." "I tried to love you." "I've said to myself how inhuman it was not to love own daughter, born of my body." "But I never managed to forget that you were born from his body." "You knew it couldn't be." "To me, you are always my wedding night and my honeymoon..." "You knew it already, daughter." "Was it him?" "You look pretty..." "I am tired." "You want anything to drink?" "AII right." " I only have beer." " It doesn't matter." "THE END" "SubtitIing CRISTBET, Lda."
