""THE ITCH TO CHEAT"" "You don't know?" "Never heard of it?" "No kidding!" "Revolutionary Method by Divaneide da Silva, a maid who's become mistress." "Wonderful, 12 books altogether." "My money was enough for 2 of them." "But I've done my math." "If I get a 50 buck raise, I'll have the entire collection in 6 months!" "And just how you're gonna get such raise?" ""Deranged Mistress"!" "Here you are, Zetti!" "This trick is gonna get you out of the dump!" ""Use this trick when the mistress is late for an appointment." "She's in a frenzy and can't find keys, purse, glasses." "The trick is to be kind to her... treat her well, give her a candy and ask for the raise!"" " What a mess!" " No mess at all, it's crystal clear." ""But if your mistress is tidy and never late"... just like yours, "forget about the raise, better quit the job. "" " There, now it's a total mess!" " What mess?" "I understood everything." "You're just a bit dense." " Now the mess has become brutal!" " Let me read once more." "Read what?" "The tablecloth is the mess." "It's gonna tear off!" " Don't do that to me." " It'll tear off." "For Heaven's sake!" "Oh, my God!" "A disaster!" "A calamity!" " Oh, God." "Ms. Inês is gonna kill me!" " Big deal!" "It's a simple tablecloth!" "It's not a simple tablecloth." "It's not any cloth." "It's "the" cloth!" " It's been torn up!" " Bad luck!" "Zetti, for God's sake!" "Don't cry, this is serious!" "Ms. Inês and Dr. Eduardo used this tablecloth in their wedding party." "She wants to use it tonight to celebrate their 15th anniversary!" "Don't tell anybody, it's a secret." "I'm not here." "I'm on leave." "Ms. Inês is not home, she's at the country house." "Dr. Eduardo, who is in Brasília, knows nothing about it." "We've planned a huge scheme not to spoil the surprise!" "Relax." "Zefinha treats it with a few stitches and she will never notice." "I'm not worried about Ms. Inês getting mad at me or yelling at me." "But I hoped this dinner would be wonderful." "They're so happily married, it's lovely." "They really love each other." "It's been 15 years and they're still in love." "Especially Dr. Eduardo!" " Oh, Dr. Eduardo drives me crazy..." " You don't stand a chance!" " I'm just kidding." " He treats Ms. Inês like a princess." "I wish!" "Handsome, tender, loving, faithful..." " He reminds me of Nildomar..." " Nildomar the doorman?" "Hahaha!" "Hahaha what?" "Yes, ma'am, Nildomar." "Handsome, considerate, soft-spoken..." "That man drives me crazy!" "Every time I see him at the front desk, my legs tremble." " What a man, God almighty!" " Speaking of the devil..." "Zefinha..." "Ms. Vera asked me to tell you to buy her a pack of cigarettes before you go up." " I hear you, Nildomar, I hear you." "He's so boring." "I haven't told you the news." "My boss has asked for divorce." "Mistress is going nuts." "She's used all toilet paper in the house to wipe her tears, poor thing." "Can you believe Dr. Cláudio had the nerve to say he fell for another?" "That's why I've cut men out of my life." "Men are all the same." "Some men are different, Gorete." "Some men are different!" "What?" " Excuse me." " What's the matter, Olímpia?" "Knock it off." "Stop this crying!" "Excuse me." "Isn't that you?" "Yeah, it's me." "It's me!" "I danced in the Congress..." " You danced in the National Congress?" " No, not the National." "The International." "International Congress of Middle-Easterner Dancing." " Thank you." " Incredible." "There were experts from all over the world." "Look!" "So you're an expert in belly dancing." "With belly dancing I earn my living... and pay for my ballet classes, which is my true passion." "In case you might need it some day." "Good! "Salete Bueno"." "It's a pleasure." "Eduardo Palhares." "Pleasure is mine." " Olímpia, is that you?" " Coming!" " What about the tablecloth?" " Zefinha said takes a few stitches." " Zefinha?" "Takes stitches where?" " Her leg." "Olímpia, I ask you about the cloth and you talk about Zefinha?" "You asked about the cloth?" "I heard "Zefinha", poor thing!" " Had to take some stitches." " What was the matter?" " It tore open." "A hole like this." " Poor thing." " What about the cloth?" " The cloth?" " I get it." " No!" "Don't answer it!" "Would you let me do my job?" "Olímpia, you're on leave and I'm not home, remember?" " Suppose it's Eduardo!" " It's not Dr. Eduardo!" " Suppose it is." " Of course it's not him." " I know it is not!" " How do you know?" "Come on, Ms. Inês." "Dr. Eduardo thinks there's nobody home." "Why would he call here?" "Just to jam the phone line?" "It's true." "Answer it, then." "There." "Too late!" "CONGRESS OF CARDIOLOG Y ENDED BY ATTACK" "Look." "It's you, isn't it?" "Yeah, it's me." "I was in a cardiology congress." " Nice." " Look..." "I hope you never need, but if you do, call me." "Attention all passengers, remain seated and fasten your seat belts." " There might be some turbulence." " And how was your congress?" "Good, good." "Except for that upsetting incident with a keynote speaker." " What happened?" " He died of an acute heart attack." "Before a crowd of cardiologists..." "Wow!" "That's really upsetting, huh?" "Ouch!" "No!" "Don't answer." "It might be Dr. Eduardo." "Olímpia, that's a mobile." "He will never know where I am if he calls." " My God!" "Lígia!" " What's the matter with Ms. Lígia?" "This project is driving me crazy." "I said I'd meet her... at the jewellery shop and totally forgot." "It's her." "Hand me that." "Think..." " Olímpia, hand me that cell phone." " Are you sure?" "Now." " Lígia?" " Inês, dear." "I've been here for hours." "What happened?" "Right." "She's in a bit of a mess, hasn't left home yet." "Half an hour?" "The shop'll be closed." "No problem, I'll send one of my agents to her house." "Great!" "Inês, problem solved." "Tell you later." "Kisses." "Lovely, Richie." "I want this." "Thank you." "You're doing me a huge favor." "Don't mention it." "Did you get my card for the shop anniversary?" "Wonderful, I loved it!" "A customized card, hand written, fabulous." "It's just like you." "What else can we hope for in this life, but a bit of elegance?" "What's up, Pedrâo?" "Is the car ready?" "It was hard work, but we can fix anything." "We just can't fix cuckolds!" "Take a look." "It's brand new, newer than silicone breasts." "You like them breasts?" "I ask 'cause I'm obsessed with them." "I mean those big silicone breasts." "Those huge, giant breasts!" "'Cause let me tell ya, I love breasts!" " Really?" " Any kind of breast!" "Breasts are like pneumatic tires." "If you can't get newer ones, at least get them reinforced!" " Yeah, how much was it?" " Let me get the bill for ya." "Give me that." "Holy cow!" "This much?" " The car was badly dented, sir." " Yeah." "Listen, I'm gonna pay with credit card and add your tip to the sum, ok?" "Please, don't do that to me." "If you add my tip there, I'll never see the money." "Ok." "But you'll have to wait while I go to the bank withdraw the money." " It's fine, it's fine." " Alright, then." "Gee, mister, is that yours?" "Who do you take me for?" "This is my wife's car." "Ok." "Nowadays everything is so inside out." "Let me see." ""Lígia, another year together. "" "Richie?" "Don't get so upset, mister, shit happens." "Just don't be too passive a cuckold." "If you play it cool, the guy'll keep playing around." "Open your eyes!" " Cut it off, man!" " Mother in heaven." "Just a sec!" "Why knock at the door?" "Nildomar?" "Olímpia!" "Nildomar, now I can't, Nildomar." "My mistress is home, see?" "Mr. Cláudio asked me to tell your mistress that he's... at the conference room and wants to talk to her." "I'll tell her later." "Don't you want to come over here when she is over there?" " The gas heater is worrying me sick." " I can't leave the front desk." "Excuse me, excuse me." "Someday you'll be mine, Nildomar!" "Ms. Inês!" "Ms. Inês, Nildomar said... the manager wants to see you immediately at the conference room." "Oh, my!" "They won't give me a break!" "Why on Earth did I take the job of decorating the lobby?" "Help me, please." "Put that inside the bag." "Where's the wallpaper catalog?" " Here." " The paint catalog?" " Here." " The drawings tube too." " Here." " I can get this from the floor." "What do you want for such efficiency?" " A raise." " I knew it." "How much this time?" "Seventy bucks." "Sixty." "Fifty and we're even." "A chocolate to sweeten my mistress' little mouth." " Ok, fifty." "From next month on, ok?" " Thank you." "Thank you, Ms. Inês." "Bye." "It worked!" "Divaneide da Silva, you rock!" "The tuna fish!" " Not here, Vera, please." " Lf not here, where then, Cláudio?" "You've run away from me the whole day." " I haven't run." " Who is she?" " Calm down." " Who is she?" " Nildomar is here!" " I don't give a damn!" "Who is she?" " Don't raise your voice!" " Cláudio, look at me... and have the guts to tell me who is your lover!" " Don't make a scene!" " Go to hell!" " Don't make a big stink!" " I don't give a damn!" " Nildomar is here!" " Nildomar can drop dead!" "The last 2 months you've treated me as a tupperware!" " What's happening?" " I've told you..." " Where did you meet this woman?" " Botucatu!" "Botucatu?" "You haven't been there for 10 years!" "Have you been to Botucatu?" "You meet with her in Botucatu?" " When do you go to Botucatu?" " I haven't been to Botucatu!" "I saw her for the first time in Botucatu." "I was 15, it was love at first sight." "Two months ago she showed up before me like magic." "She didn't recognize me, she knows nothing about this." "But I need to try, Vera." "I have to try and conquer my love from Botucatu." "What would you do if you were in my shoes?" "To rhyme with Botucatu, I'd say "F... you"!" "Excuse me." "Am I interrupting anything?" "I can come back later." "No, no." "We're done." "For good." " Hi, Inês, good to see you." " My pleasure." " Make yourself at home." "Excuse me." " Thanks." "I think it's better if we talk outside, right?" "If the fishery's closed I'm crammed." "Ms Inês said over and over:" ""Keep an eye on it, keep an eye on it!" For God's sake." ""Shiro Shiroco and sons, fishery"." "What?" "Dr. Eduardo?" "You scared the hell out of me!" "What are you doing here?" "I ask you the same." "What are you doing here?" "Hadn't you taken a leave?" "I had." "But I'm using it to do a through clean-up in the kitchen and scrub some dirty spots." " Very good!" "I like that, Ms. Olímpia." "Hold it!" "Where do you think you're going?" "I'm taking the dirty clothes to the laundry." "No way!" "Let me do it, that's my job." "By the way, don't go into the kitchen for no reason whatsoever." "Wet floor, fall for it no more!" " Did you like that?" " A lot." "I think I'm going to the club, it's still early and Inês went to..." " The country house!" " Are you crazy?" "You don't need to yell." "I know Inês is at the country house." " Excuse me." " Okay, go." "Thank God!" "Go to the club." "Wonderful." "Great!" "Oh, my God!" "What if Dr. Eduardo finds out Ms. Inês is downstairs?" "I didn't have much time to improve it because there were so many changes!" "So I think you better just show the project as it is..." " I didn't call you to talk about that." " No?" "Inês, could you live with someone knowing you love someone else?" " How's that?" " I'm head over heels about a woman." " I'm head over heels about you!" " How is that?" " I'm divorcing my wife for you." " For me?" "I had to tell you that." "Have you gone mad?" "I hardly know you." "It is not madness." "I love you." "Look, I think I better leave..." "Hi, Ms. Orávia, how are you?" " How are you?" " I don't deserve this!" "Shiro?" "You know that tuna fish you sent me?" "It's burnt." "I need another one." "Is it over?" "How come is it over?" "Come on, don't do that, for God sake." "You need to send me another tuna fish!" " Ok, but at least try, will ya?" " Ms. Olímpia?" "Ok." "If you can find one, how much is gonna cost me?" "50 bucks?" "You're ripping me off, Shiro!" "Okay, what else can I do?" "Send it over." "Send it over." " How will I get this money, my God?" " Ms. Olímpia?" "Yes?" "Did you call me, Dr. Eduardo?" "Where are my shorts?" "That seems to be a hobby for you." "At least once a month you forget to put my shorts in the tennis bag." ""I forgot to iron you shorts"." " What's your excuse this time around?" " I forgot to iron your shorts." "It's still wet." "Still wet?" "I was in Brasília for 12 days and it's still wet?" "The weather, sir." "You won't believe, but it rained for 12 days non-stop." " No." " No, what?" "I can't believe." "You always come up The weather." "If you don't believe me, what else can I do?" " I know." "Iron it until it's dried." " You can dry, blow, shake... put them in the oven, do whatever you want with them... but I want my shorts and I will be waiting for them at the office." "Where is my mail?" "Here." " All that?" " Too much time." "12 days in Brasília, what do you want?" "No, let me do it!" "I got it, I got it." " Calm down." "Calm down." " Relax, I'll help you." "Let me do it, this is my job." "You needn't do it." "You're so kind!" "Can I count on you?" " To pick up my mail?" " No." "To find jobs." "This is the 3rd job you've asked in just a month." "What is going on?" " Changed boyfriends?" " I'm trying to." "You change boyfriends as if you changed clothes." "You think it's easy to find the other half?" "No." "You and Ms. Inês were lucky." "But my hopes are high." "I'm hitting on Nildomar." "He is the man of my life." "The doorman?" "But he's got a good job here at the building." "It's for Zetti, his cousin." "She was fired." "She's desperate, a pity to see." "If you find her a job, we help the poor thing... and I get points with Nildomar, don't you think?" "If you keep on changing at this rate, I'm gonna need an employment agency!" "No, sir." "Nildomar is forever." " Just a little help, please." " Let me think." "I think a friend of mine told me he's hiring cleaning ladies... for his new clinic in Brasília." "Yes, he told me so." " He even gave me his business card." " Great." "Thank you." " You're very good to me." " Now go iron my shorts, please." "Your friend's name is "Salete Bueno"?" "No!" "That's not it." "Give it to me." "It's this other one." "Alright." "Thank you, doc." "Who is Salete Bueno?" " My girlfriend!" " Yours?" "Of course." "You think you're the only one who can have a boyfriend?" "I do too." "Salete is gorgeous, you should've seen her." "She's a wonderful belly dancer." "She wraps herself up in a rug, then she unravels it... and goes on dancing, sexy, beautiful, fabulous, Ms. Olímpia!" " She does that to you?" " All the time!" " Go iron my shorts, Ms. Olímpia!" " Dr. Eduardo..." "Oh, Dr. Eduardo!" "I'd have never thought." "You got a girlfriend?" "Not just one!" "A kilometer of them." "A kilometer of girlfriends?" "Does Ms. Inês know?" "Of course not." "I don't tell." "You're the only one who knows." "Now go and close the door, please!" "A kilometer of girlfriends?" "A kilometer with them standing up or lying down?" "I'm so disappointed!" "Oh, dear, Gorete was right." " Men are all the same." " This is not a Greek column!" " How isn't that Greek, Ms. Orávia?" " It's Etruscan!" "I know about art." "Especially Greek Art." "This is an Etruscan column!" " But Ms. Orávia..." " No way." "I won't let you put an Etruscan piece in my lobby." "I have wonderful drawings of Greek columns." "I will show you them." "Just a second, stay put." " Etruscan!" "She is Etruscan!" " It's great that she's left us alone." "I have so much to say." "I've been plucking up courage for two months." " Two months?" " Since you moved into the building." "I found you again, Inês." "Botucatu!" "Twenty years ago!" "A party at the Botucatu Club." " We almost kissed..." " I can't believe!" " Did you remember?" " Claudinho Skinny?" " Thick glasses and tuberous nose?" " I've improved, huh?" "I've followed you for two months." "I've been your shadow, your ghost." " I flirt with you from afar." " The flowers?" "The cherry chocolate?" " The pussycat!" " My God, that pussycat!" "How could you send a pussycat to my house?" "Eduardo hates cats!" " I didn't send it to him." " You're nuts!" " I'm married." "I love my husband." " What about him?" " What about him what?" " Does he love you?" "Of course." "Today is our 15th anniversary." "Speak low." "How many times has he sent you flowers?" " Too many." " And chocolate?" " Several." " Cats?" " Get lost!" " You're here and I love you, Inês!" " You've gone way beyond the line!" "Very often, a man who sends flowers, candies... and tells his wife he loves her just wants to make her think so." " Now it seems you're doubting him." " Here, they're here." "Here they are!" "Marvelous!" "Seat down because I'm giving you a course on Greece!" "So good." "Rice is half-done, now what?" " Ms. Lígia, come in, please." " How are you, Olímpia?" "Is Inês home?" "She's downstairs, but don't get upset." "I'm upset enough already." " She'll be back shortly." " Why are you upset, Olímpia?" "Would you have some money to lend me?" " Another installment?" " No, the tuna fish!" "It's burnt." " How is that, Olímpia?" " The tuna fish has burnt." " I had to send for another one..." " My God, I forgot it in the car." " The money?" "I'll go get for you." " No, Olímpia, the dessert." "Red berry mousse." "You have to put in the fridge or it will melt down." " Go get it for me, it's in the trunk." " Where did you park the car?" " Visitor's lot in the garage." " What about the money?" "Will you lend it to me?" "50 bucks." "I'll pay you back when I get my wages." "You really like your bosses, don't you, Olímpia?" " For the doc I even get goose pimples!" " I am really glad for Inês." "Finding a good maid is so difficult nowadays." " Why so?" "Aren't you happy with yours?" " Mine?" "She left on her leave and never came back." "Do you know of anyone?" "Zetti." "I had asked Dr. Eduardo to find her a job." "What for?" "She wants to work in a hospital?" "No, but Dr. Eduardo has one too many girlfriends, so..." ""Girlfriends"?" "He's got one who does belly dancing to him." "Eduardo has a girlfriend who's a belly dancer?" "!" " A bill more." "Who said so?" " You did!" " I never said a word." " Of course you did!" "You've just said it!" "Lmpossible, I'd never say something he told me in secret." "What?" "I'm gonna get the mousse before it goes bad." "Be careful, that car is Cristiano's!" "Eduardo?" "Girlfriends?" " Hello." " Eduardo?" "Yeah, I'm back early." "A problem there, tell you later." "I called to see if Olímpia knew what time you'd get home." "Your cell's off." "I turned it off in the plane, Cristiano." " I knew it." " Where is my cell phone?" "Gee, I've lost it, can you believe that?" "Probably in the plane, or airport..." "I need to speak with you." "It's serious." "Do you know of any gun shop?" "Gun?" "I'm going to meet my wife and I need two lawyers, a cop and a doctor." "You just got your doctor." "I'm not kidding, man!" " Stay put, I'm going over!" " OK." "I stopped by just to tell you, Nildinho." "Hurry, Olímpia, Ms. Orávia hates when I chat during my working hours." "And please, don't call me Nildinho, I hate that." "Call me by my real name, ok?" "My name is Nildomar!" "I love your name." " Spill your guts!" " I got a job for your cousin Zetti." " Really?" "!" "Good for her, huh?" " Nildomar!" "How many times have I told you?" "And you?" " Don't you have anything else to do?" " The red berry mousse!" "Ms. Orávia, I assure you it won't happen again, forgive me." " It won't happen again, ok?" " We'll talk later on, nil!" "Not in my lobby!" "You won't, you hear me?" "!" " Show me you forgot about that kiss." " What kiss?" "You're mad?" " I never kissed you." " Then kiss me now..." "Let go of me, you're hurting me!" "Let go or else I'll scream!" "Oh, Lord!" "Ms. Inês is in danger!" "Kiss me and tell me you never forgot me!" " Let her go or I'll call the manager!" " He is the manager, Olímpia!" "Then I'll call the police!" "No, no." "Don't make a scene." "I can explain." "Cláudio, the manager, he..." "Look, never mind, ok?" "You saw nothing, heard nothing, know nothing." "Let me handle this." "Alright, Ms. Inês." "Forgive my behavior." "I promise I won't touch you." "Can we just talk?" " Stay away from me!" " Relax, I won't get near you." "Can we talk like two adults?" " Give me a chance!" " Stop it, Cláudio!" "You're out of your mind." "You're totally out of your mind!" "You idiot, look what you've done!" " I'm gonna help you!" " No, no!" "Fetch the drawings!" " I'm gonna get a towel!" " Get the drawings!" "I'm gonna get the drawings, then." " Olímpia, what's this madness?" " I saw nothing, heard nothing." " Got it, Nildomar?" " But I heard..." "Give me a hand at the garage." "Come, Nildomar!" " What the hell!" " Nildomar!" "How could you do that to me?" "You've broken the key in the hole!" "Ms. Lígia is gonna kill me!" " Ms. Lígia!" "Hey, Ms. Lígia?" " Olímpia, finally!" "Ms. Lígia, for God's sake, blame on me." "I swear to God, I'm to blame." "The key went in but didn't turn, then got stuck there and didn't come out." " It broke!" " My God, Cristiano is gonna kill me!" "Which key did you use?" "The car key is this one here." "Let me see that!" "Just don't go by the pool, the water's been contaminated." " Oh, I'm waiting for a lad..." " A lad?" "When he gets here, let him in and ask him to wait." "Cristiano mustn't know about the problem with the car, ok?" "In fact, he mustn't know I was here." "At any rate you haven't seen me today." " No, I haven't seen you today." "I saw nothing, heard nothing, won't tell nothing." "Nothing!" "Nothing!" "Nothing!" "My God, I still have to iron this pair of shorts." "Ms. Olímpia!" "Ms. Olímpia!" "What is going on here?" "How do you explain that?" "Your shorts!" "Oh, Dr. Eduardo!" "They've been tore up!" "If I depended on these to play tennis, I'd have to play with my underwear?" " Is that it?" " Do you foresee how famous you'd be?" " Who's been here?" " Nobody, no, sir." "Don't lie to me, Olímpia." "Who was here?" "Zetti." "She came up to ask if I had gotten her a job." "Please, will you forgive me?" "Will you forgive me?" "Will you?" "You'll forgive me, won't you?" "I'll sew them up for you." "Never mind." "Never mind the shorts." "I'm not playing tennis anymore." "I'm gonna wait for Dr. Cristiano in the office." "Are you cooking something?" "Me?" "Of course not!" "Funny." "Something seems to be burning." "The rice!" "Nildomar, this elevator doesn't reach the garage?" "No, ma'am." "The other one does." "Yes?" "I came to see Dr. Eduardo." "He's been waiting for me." ""The whiskey rice has to be completely white!" "Don't let it cook too long, it has to maintain the flavor of scotch!"" "What if I drop in a bit more whiskey to disguise the taste?" "Forgive me, but I'm in need!" "Here!" "Ms. Lígia with some lad, Dr. Eduardo with a kilometer of girlfriends..." "Ms. Inês with Mr. Cláudio in the pool..." "Pardon me, the only way out is to drink." "Ms. Lígia's lipstick, dear Christ!" "Mr. Cristiano, come on in, please." "Ms. Lígia hasn't been here." "Huh?" "Where is your boss?" "In the office." "Sorry to ask, but where did you park?" " In front of the building, why?" " 'Cause God is the almighty!" " What's that face for?" " Lígia is seeing another man." " What, a lover?" " Don't say that word!" " You said it first." " "Another man"." "Someone else but me." "Sorry, a man who is seeing one's wife and is not one's wife's husband... is called one's wife's lover!" "Lígia..." "Thank you, it seems dinner tonight will lack everything but the cloth." " How is that?" " Everything went wrong!" "The fish's burnt, the rice's burnt..." "Help me, slice this onion for me." "I still have to prepare the mango chutney, the banana dish..." " Mango and banana for dessert?" " No." "Those are side dishes." "Sophisticated people, you know?" "Oh, my, the dessert is in the trunk of Ms. Lígia's car!" "Everything is going wrong at this house!" ""This house"?" "You didn't see my house." "Ms. Vera left with four suitcases, yelling at Mr. Claudio's face:" ""I'm leaving and taking everything with me, including the maid!"" " And why are you crying?" " The onion!" "No..." "What's the matter?" "Was it raining downstairs?" "Olímpia, call Nildomar, please." "Tell him I need to talk to him." "Hi, Zefinha, are you there?" "How did the stitches go?" " I think they're fine." " Does it hurt?" "Hurt?" "Ouch!" "It hurts a lot!" "Go rest a little." "Don't take that too lightly." "Bye!" "Don't take that too lightly." "Ms. Inês, you look awful!" "What's the idea, walking up six stories!" "Olímpia, stop talking and call Nildomar, please!" "Hello, Nildomar?" "Where is he?" "That cleaning man I don't like is at the front desk." "Let me talk to him." "Hello?" "Listen, put me through with Vera, the manager's wife." "Yes, apartment 404." "She doesn't live here anymore?" " This man is so stupid, poor thing." " More than stupid." "I hate him!" "Listen, when Nildomar gets back, tell him I need to talk to Ms. Vera." "She must come up here, it's urgent!" "Got it?" "Thank you." " Oh, my..." " Come rest." "Ms. Inês, take a hot bath..." "I'll help you." "It can't be done." "You need to change the lock." "My God, I can't believe!" "You know anyone who can do that around here?" "I do too. "Doit"." " "Doit"?" " Yes. "Doit" now keys." "You mean "Do It Now Keys"?" "Exactly." "Everyone who gets their key broken goes there." "I'll have to go there." " It can't be, my purse's upstairs." " It's close to here." "Just walk up for ten blocks and turn left..." "Richie." " The man is a millionaire?" " No, his name is Richie." " They've known each other for years." " Years?" "It means you..." "Sorry." "I admire you, you're a very understanding guy." "What are you talking about?" "I just found out!" "Look." ""Lígia, another year together." "Richie. "" "Considering what's written, you're fucked." " Olímpia!" " There's someone in the living room." "Hi, Richie." " That's the man, Eduardo!" " Calm down, calm down." "Hi, honey, how are you?" "Great." "Coming over?" "Yes, I'm at Inês, I'll be waiting." "Ok, love." "For you too." "A kiss, bye." "Olímpia, I'm going at the key-man!" "Be back in a sec." " She told him to come to my house?" " Of course." " They think you're in Brasília." " "They"?" "The two of them." "You think your wife knows nothing about it?" "Why Lígia went to a key-man?" "To get a house key copy to give the guy." " Your wife is really a bitch, huh?" " Yours, by the look of it, a madame." "But I'm gonna kill mine!" "I'm gonna kill her!" "It's no use getting nervous!" "You're a cuckold anyway!" "Olímpia must know all about it." "Hold it!" "Where are you going?" "Didn't I tell you not to step into the kitchen?" " Olímpia, who was here?" " You wanna know now or before?" " Why?" "Was somebody here?" " Who said so?" ""Now or before"?" " Before what?" "I'm the one who wanna know before what!" "There was nobody here." "Not now, nor before, nor during, nor after." " So who drank this whiskey?" " "Whiskey"?" " Could it be Ms. Inês and..." " Inês?" "But isn't Inês..." "In the country house!" "Inês and who, Ms. Olímpia?" "Stop asking me questions, please!" "Don't ask me nothing else." "Cristiano, she is hiding something from us, Cristiano." "Look." "This glass has lipstick on, and this one hasn't." " They had a good little party." " Inês is at the country house!" "Sure?" "Think hard, she thinks you're in Brasília." "Let's get the cat out of the bag!" " You two, get out of there!" " Are you nuts?" "Who is the worker here, you or me?" "I'm the one who opens the door." "Thank you." " Flowers to Ms. Inês!" " You've sent Inês flowers?" " No." "Who's sent her flowers?" " Who sent her flowers?" "Give me that!" ""Everything is the same, but I am sad because you're not next to me." "Forgive me for this afternoon. " "Little Cat"." "I told you we had to get the cat out of the bag." "Olímpia, besides Zetti, who else was here today?" "Yesterday they brought in the electricity bill." " I said today!" " They didn't deliver any bill today." " Oh, Dr. Cristiano was here." " Enough to see Ms. Lígia leaving." "No!" "Why didn't you tell me Lígia was here?" "Why didn't you tell me when asked?" "Don't do that to me!" "Don't put me in a tight corner, I'm a nervous wreck!" "What's this money for?" " This money?" " Answer, Olímpia!" " Ms. Lígia gave it to me." " Bribery..." "Bribery!" " She knows everything!" "More pressure!" " More pressure?" "Don't do that." "You know I like you." "I'm seriously considering giving you a raise, would you like that?" "Sure, but I can't accept it." "I can't accept it 'cause I can be anything, but I'm not dishonest." "Ms. Inês already gave me a raise today." " Isn't Ms. Inês at the country house?" " Yesterday." "The day before yesterday?" " My memory is failing me." " Why would Inês give you a raise?" "No reason, sir." "She didn't want to." "I played a trick on her." " "Trick"?" " How much did you get with the trick?" " 50 bucks." " "50 bucks"?" "My job!" "Hello?" " Just a sec, I'll check if he's here." " I'm not here for anybody." "He is not here for anybody." "Is it urgent?" "Who is it?" ""Salete, the belly dancer"?" "Salete!" "Hello?" "Salete!" "Are you okay, Salete?" "Keep an eye on her, don't let her get away!" "Hi, dear, shoot!" "I can't believe it." "Great!" "Really?" "Of course, I'm free, I'll wait for you!" "Ok, big one for you too." "Salete?" "You're fantastic!" "Bye, bye, honey." "Bye." "Very well, Ms. Olímpia." "So Ms. Inês gave you a 50-buck raise." "I'll give you a 60-buck raise." " From this month on?" " As you wish." "Dr. Eduardo, Dr. Eduardo!" "You're really clever, huh?" "What's that?" " Can I go now?" " Go, go, go." "Go!" "Saint Divaneide da Silva, I praise you!" "Who is that Salete who called?" "She was seated next to me in the flight, that's all." "I see." "And you went on and made a pass at her?" ""Made a pass", Cristiano?" "She found my cell phone, it fell on the plane." "She's gonna dance at a party nearby." "She'll drop by to hand me the phone." "I'm worried about our wives." "What are they up to?" "50 bucks!" "Olímpia was paid so she wouldn't talk about Lígia meeting a guy here!" "Inês gave her a raise in the middle of the month?" " The maid must be blackmailing her!" " You think so?" "Of course!" "She might've caught "Little Cat" drinking my whiskey... and blackmailed Inês." "That's it." "That explains the flowers and the glasses!" "You think they decided to cheat on us at the same day?" "And they're bribing her with our bucks, our own money!" "I'm gonna kill her!" "I'm gonna kill her!" "Calm down, it's no use getting nervous!" "You're a cuckold anyway!" "Olímpia!" " Is Inês home?" " Now what, now what?" "Let's go to the office!" "Get glasses and flowers... and hide in the office." "We can hear everything from there." "We wait for the lad to arrive, for Lígia to come back..." "Little Cat show up and catch the four of them red-handed!" "That's it!" "That's what we're gonna do!" " Come on!" " Ms. Olímpia, hold it!" "Listen carefully." "Cristiano and I are not home, got it?" "No." "We're not home." "You didn't see us, didn't hear us, we do not exist." "Don't do that to me." "I'm so nervous today, I'm a nervous wreck." "Here, so you can buy yourself a gift." "Look how pretty it is." "Okay?" "Eduardo!" "Quiet!" "Olímpia!" "Didn't you hear me?" " Yes, Ms. Inês." "What's up, Ms. Inês?" " What's this money for?" " To buy some bread." " 50 bucks to buy bread?" "There's a huge bread sale down at the bakery." " What about this vase?" " It's the one you got for birthday." "I know." "I want to know why you're holding it." " I'm gonna put the flowers in!" " What flowers?" " The flowers they delivered." " Where are they?" " I ate them." " You ate the flowers?" " From the stalk up." " Since when you eat flowers?" " Since this afternoon." " Olímpia, give me that." "Let's talk this over." "What flowers are you talking about?" "Ms. Inês, can you excuse me a minute?" "Where are you going?" "What is that?" "Olímpia locked the door and took the key." "Olímpia, give me that key!" "I'm gonna eat it!" "I've eaten the flowers, I'll eat this key easy." " Give me that key, Olímpia!" " Oh, Ms. Inês..." "Olímpia, the key!" "Give it to me!" "Inês is coming!" "Fetch the card and the flowers!" "Hurry!" "What are these glasses doing here, Olímpia?" "Ms. Inês, can we talk outside?" "Stuffy in here." "Ms. Inês, let's get out of here." "Come." "What are these glasses?" "I'm worried about you." "You're not in the right mind today." "First you don't recognize the vase and now the glasses?" " She took the glasses." " Of course!" "Told Olímpia to wash out the crime evidence." "Let's take a look!" " What does that mean?" " I've torn it off." "I'll pay you when I get this month's raise." "What raise?" "I said "from next month on"." "Dr. Eduardo said it's better from this month on." "What do you mean?" "How could he know I gave you a raise?" " Olímpia, what's going on?" " A fainting." " When did you speak to him?" " Yesterday." " How, if he is in Brasília?" " Wasn't that yesterday?" "Olímpia!" " I'm taking the vase to the kitchen." " What about these glasses?" "Asking about the glasses again?" "It's become an obsession!" "Eduardo, what's going on?" "I can't see." "Inês, hold it here, I'm in a hurry." "Inês, it's insane." "I didn't stop a minute today." "I was waiting for a man here, then I went down to meet another man... who sent me to another man." " Too many men!" "I'm exhausted!" " Waited for one... went down to meet another one who sent her to another one?" "Altogether three." "Your wife is insatiable, huh?" "I found these two glasses at the office... and Eduardo's tennis shorts torn off and hidden." " I began to think..." " That Eduardo is cheating on you." "What's that, Lígia, are you nuts?" "This is Olímpia's doing." "What about this lipstick here?" " It must be Olímpia's." " Since when Olímpia wears lipstick?" " What's going on?" " I think she is setting the table." "Do you think they've invited their lovers to dine here?" "I don't know, Eduardo." "I can't understand, they're whispering." "Planning more dirty tricks, obvious!" "How could Eduardo have brought a girl here if he's in Brasília?" "!" " That's what he told you, right?" " Are you crazy?" "Today is Friday." "Eduardo always plays tennis on Fridays." "He might've come home earlier with her... and since he thinks you're in the country house... he came here to get his shorts and a kiss here a kiss there... got lipstick in the shorts." "Now she's really a bitch, huh?" " Tear the shorts like that, come on!" " But I haven't left the house!" "Of course you have." "You weren't here when I arrived." "I was out for 15 minutes." "Enough for him to come here with her, drink a whiskey..." "If he was here, why didn't Olímpia tell me so?" "Shutting Olímpia's mouth is easy." "That's why he gave her a raise!" "Listen, Inês..." "I didn't want to tell you, but I have to." "Olímpia let it slip that Eduardo'll employ one of her maid friends... at the house of one of his girlfriends." "One of his girlfriends?" "Lígia!" "You think his tennis on Fridays has nothing to do with tennis?" "No way, Cristiano has nothing to do with that." "We're gonna find that out right now!" "Olímpia!" "Olímpia?" " It's fallen!" " Olímpia?" "They went to the kitchen after Olímpia." "They want to be sure that their lovers' dinner is going fine." "Let's do it, Eduardo!" "Let's unmask those two cheaters!" "No, no!" "Calm down." "We can't do that without proof." "They can deny." "Let's wait and catch each one of them with their lovers." " Tell me what you told Lígia!" " About the car key?" "Don't play the stupid, Olímpia!" "Ms. Inês, I wish you didn't know..." "It's true." "Dr. Eduardo's got girlfriends." "He's even got one who wraps herself in a rug and dances to him all sexy." " She's coming over..." " Over where?" "Here." "I heard the two of them talking on the phone." "I can't believe it!" "He has the nerve to bring one of his girlfriends here?" " I'm gonna get her downstairs!" " Wait for the lad from the jewellery!" "What lad, what jewellery?" "You think I'm buying a watch to that shit-ass?" "He thinks he is the man, right?" "Well, I have a man who loves me!" "A man who gives me flowers, chocolate, cats..." " Who is that?" " 404, my friend!" " Phone ringing." " I get it, it's mine, know the ring." "She's got 404 men and I can't catch Nildomar!" "Lígia's cell is ringing, they're coming." " Get out, now it's my turn." " Wait for me!" "Hello?" "Who?" "It's the key man." "Of course, it's got a secret!" "He can't start the car." "I must go there." "I can't tell the secret on the phone, dear." "I'm coming down!" " Well, I'm going down!" " I'm coming with you!" "Ms. Inês, are you going out?" "What about the tuna fish?" "The tuna fish?" "The tuna fish!" "Don't worry, I'll find someone to eat my "tuna fish"!" "I can't believe it, I can't believe it!" "We've been married for 15 years... and she never used that kind of language with me. "Tuna fish"?" "Cristiano, she said she's gonna find someone to eat her "tuna fish"!" " Son of a bi...!" " Calm down!" "Don't be embarrassed." "It's not easy to find out one's wife is having her "tuna fish" eaten." "My friend, our wives are two bitches!" "Yours is having her "tuna fish" eaten... and mine is meeting a man with whom she has a secret!" "Wait a minute, how many men does Lígia have?" "I won't let you do it, Vera!" "No furniture is leaving this house!" "Where are taking everything?" "What do you mean, you won't tell?" " Excuse me, doc." " Don't touch it, don't touch it!" "Are you insane?" "There's a moving truck downstairs, you know?" "Hold it, this is mine!" "It's not right, you hear?" "You can't take everything away!" "Who do you think you are, son?" "What's the idea?" "This house is mine!" "Mine!" "It's mine but..." "Stay calm, we can talk, okay?" " Okay?" "Stay calm." " Calm down, Inês, calm down!" "I am calm, I am calm." "I just wanna catch this belly dancer downstairs." "Stop it!" "You couldn't find it?" "For God sake, Shiroco, don't do that to me!" "Go to the beach, throw yourself into the waves and get me some tuna fish." "Just found on the high seas?" "Then drown yourself in there!" "Ms. Olímpia!" "Never mind!" "I'm the one who's gonna drown!" "Ms. Olímpia!" "Ms. Olímpia!" "Did you call me?" "Why didn't you tell me Inês was home?" " Ms. Inês is home?" " She and Lígia just left." " They just left or they're home?" " Don't make me angry!" "What secret are you hiding?" "Ms. Inês told me to keep it a secret, I can't tell." "You shouldn't have come earlier!" " What's this key Lígia asked for?" " I won't say it, sir." " Why not?" " She said if you knew you'd kill her!" " Eduardo, I need a whiskey!" " Two." "Three." "Drink it." "No, Dr. Eduardo, thanks." "I can't, two drinks and I'm out of space!" "I start feeling I'm Inês, kissing in the pool..." "Kissing who?" "Nobody!" "Nobody kissed nobody." "It was me." "When I drink..." "I feel like crying!" "I get so emotional." "I get..." "I feel like crying..." "What is this?" "That's absurd!" "All this trash at the elevator's door." "Please!" "Inês, calm down." "I'm going to see the key-man." "Don't do anything before I come back." "Nildomar?" "Yes?" " What's this rug up here?" " The guys are about to carry out." " And where is the woman?" " Arriving any minute." "Arriving any minute?" "Alright." "When you arrive, my dear... you know who'll be upstairs?" "Me." " Dr. Eduardo!" " Come here!" " What's that, doc?" " Sit down!" " Start talking!" " We want details!" " Go, go, go!" "Come on, Pará!" " Watch out for the door." "I've got to find out where Vera is taking all this furniture to!" "I've got to stop this!" " Pick it up over there." " Ready?" " Let's go." " Holy crap, it's heavier than before!" " Shit, put all your strength there!" " Come help us here, it's too heavy!" " Watch out for the door!" " Hey, Duplex!" "Give us a hand here!" "Where on Earth is Nildomar?" "Nildomar!" "Come right here!" "Listen, people moving out on the very day we have a meeting?" "Outrageous!" "Everybody trying to come down and there's just one free elevator?" " Who is moving out?" " Mr. Cláudio!" " Cláudio?" " Yes." " The manager?" " Yes." "He's moving out and hasn't told me anything?" "Well, if he's really moving out, tomorrow I'll become manager." "Take care over there, ok?" "Do your thing there, I'm taking this rug." "Be happy, Negâo." "This shit here has worn me out!" "Go." "Come on, go." "Mister?" "Yes?" "Good evening, apartment 603." "Ms. Lígia." "There's no Ms. Lígia at the 603." "She's Ms. Inês Palhares' friend." "Richie has sent me." "Just a sec." "Saint Divaneide da Silva, help me!" "Make them believe me!" " Where are they?" " I don't know." "I don't know, Dr. Eduardo, I don't know." "Why do you wanna know where Ms. Inês is... if your girlfriend is coming over?" "My girlfriend?" "What's that?" "Have you gone mad?" "Salete, the belly dancer." "I heard you setting everything up on the phone." "Don't be so stupid, Ms. Olímpia!" "I've just met Salete." "She's coming to hand me the cell phone I dropped on the plane." "This is crazy!" "Why do you think she is my girlfriend?" " You told me so." " Me?" "She's just gaining time so she won't have to say where those bitches are." " What?" " Bitches!" "What?" "That's it!" "Ms. Olímpia, don't make me use tougher methods!" "I swear on all the secrets I've kept so far..." "I don't know their whereabouts!" " Listen, the intercom." " No!" "Let Cristiano answer it." "Hello?" "Dr. Eduardo?" "Mr. Cristiano?" "There's a lad here who wants to talk to Ms. Lígia." "It's Richie, right?" "Yes, it's Richie." "Richie." "Okay." "You can go up, fellow." " Who was it?" " Lígia's lover." " What?" " Here... take this bottle, I'll take this other one." "When he comes in..." "No, no, we need him alive!" "Help me take Olímpia to the office." "Don't do that to me, I need to go back to the kitchen." " You need to obey us, that's what!" " You hear?" " Let's go!" " What?" "You're kidnapping me?" "Cristiano!" "Get two packs of bandage in my case." "Come!" "For God sake, Dr. Eduardo, what you're gonna do?" "Don't do that, sir!" "Sit down!" "Sit, sit, sit." " What's this for?" " Tie her up real tight." " Tie me up?" " It won't hurt a thing." "This is an abuse!" " What does his face look like?" " All lovers have the same face." "Ouch!" "What's that?" "Ouch!" "And my human rights!" "Relax, relax, you'll get some change afterwards, ok?" "Candy, candy, wanna buy some candy?" "This traffic jam is unbelievable!" "I hope Inês hasn't gone mad!" " Good evening." " Good evening." "Is Ms. Lígia or Ms. Inês home?" " What, any one of them is okay?" " I was sent by Richie." "You're not Richie?" "No, he's sent me to assist the two ladies." " Richie is just a pimp!" " They're not here?" "Yeah..." "They're in the bath." " Well..." " No, no." "You can come in." " Make yourself at home." " Excuse me." "And..." "what do you carry in that case?" "I have everything they need here." "We gotta be prepared for any event." " Sit down." " It's your "job", right?" " What do you mean?" " Assisting female clients at home..." "If they prefer at home, yes." "It's great." "At home we can treat them more kindly, be more caring... all our time are theirs, you know?" " I'm going to punch this guy!" " But at Richie's is more spacious." "There are more options, it's more comfortable there's always a drink..." " There's that here too." " When we want, if you want..." " No, thanks." "I don't drink at work." "No?" "That's great!" "A drink is always much more exciting, isn't it?" "Ms. Lígia and Ms. Inês, do they often resort to this home delivery service?" " I didn't get it." " You did too, but I can explain..." "What we really want to know is if they go to Richie very often." "I always see Ms. Lígia around, the other one I don't know." "I'm sorry." "You know, there are many male and female clients there..." "Male clients?" "You have male clients too?" "If you're interested..." "Why, do you like that?" "I mean, you like "assisting" men?" "It's my job." "If I can choose, I prefer women." "They spend more." "The money isn't theirs, anyway!" "They are not so straightforward as men, it takes us a little longer... but it's more pleasant." "Pity..." " What?" " What a pity..." "Sorry, I didn't understand..." "Why is more pleasant with women?" "Why?" " Eduardo?" " Don't call me that!" "You know I don't like it!" "We haven't introduced ourselves." "What's your name?" "Carlos Alberto." "Dudu." "Delighted." "Titiano and I are married, I hope you don't mind that." " What do you mean, married?" " Never mind him." "He'll only say he's married after he dresses as bride and marry in church." "What's that?" "Nothing." "Titiano's rottweiler." "I'm sorry." "Is Ms. Lígia going to take long?" "I wish she'd never come back." "You'd better go to the TV room." "I'll tell her you're here." "When he gets like that, I have to lock him up and beat him down." "You're tall, aren't you?" "Good, it moved!" "Dear God!" "Now Cristiano is really gonna kill me!" "What is that in the rug?" " Inês?" " Cláudio?" " What's going on?" " I'm so embarrassed!" " Don't get near me!" " My rug!" "Won't you come to the meeting?" "It's the fourth calling." "I can't." "I've got guests." " What about your wife?" " She's fine, thanks." "Love, your idea was wonderful!" "I locked the stud in the..." "I can see your wife isn't home!" " I wish I knew where on Earth she is." " Me too!" "I need her and the manager to start the meeting." "Only God knows where they are." "Since this afternoon in the pool they don't seem to get apart." "You have no idea where they are?" "Eduardo, you slammed the door at her face." ""Since this afternoon in the pool they don't seem to get apart"." "That's what Olímpia said." "She was kissing in the pool." "The manager!" "Cristiano!" " 404!" " What?" "It's the manager's apartment." "Inês is there!" " Hurry!" " No!" "Don't go that way." "Let's try the back door!" " It was not my fault!" " Don't start, you have to pay." "It's your fault, braking all of a sudden." " You know nothing of traffic law?" " But you braked!" "Ma'am, those who hit on the rear are always guilty." "Just write us a check." "I'm gonna get the check in the car." " She looks like a major scoundrel!" " Relax, we won't have to pay for that." " The crazy woman!" "Son of a gun!" " I can't believe this." "Hey, Paulâo, watch out for the car!" " Look at that!" " You have no money for a hotel?" "I think I'm gonna faint!" "Relax, lady." " Are you okay?" " Taxi!" "There's only crazy women around here, man, just insane women..." "Stop!" "Stop!" "Stop!" "How dumb can we be?" "They must've looked through the door viewer and will never open this door!" " Nildomar, where is my moving truck?" " Gone." "Ms. Vera, there's a message for you to go to apartment 603." "It's Ms. Inês' apartment." " No one lives here." " How's that?" "It's always been the manager's apartment!" " He moved away!" " Where to?" " Where to and "whom with"?" " Nildomar must know!" "Nildomar, open the door for me, quick!" "Excuse me?" "Is anybody home?" "Office!" "Dear God!" "A thief!" "Help!" "Relax, lady, relax." "It was no thief." " Who tied you up like that?" " My boss." " Is he insane?" " Doctor." "Tying and muzzling his maid is not being perverted?" " What are you doing here?" " I got a message..." "Wait, I know this handwriting!" "Gee!" ""Everything is the same, but I am sad because you're not next to me. "" ""Little Cat"?" " Where is your mistress?" " 50 bucks." " What?" " 50 bucks." "What?" "Now I only give information when royally paid." "I can't believe how stupid I am!" "I even left the apartment empty to them!" "I'm gonna get them, I will!" "Wait a minute..." "Let's go!" "Nildomar, have you seen Inês going by here?" " I saw nobody going by here!" " Ok." "What about Ms. Lígia?" " She just entered the garage." " Let's go." "How could you have the nerve to slam the door at my face?" "Dear God, this is blood!" "Blood!" "Did I hit anyone in the crash?" "The red berry mousse!" "Jesus!" "Now Cristiano will kill me for sure!" "Shit!" "Shit!" "My Armani!" "But we didn't slam the door, it was the wind." "As a matter of fact, this building suffers from awful strong gusts." " You think so?" " Not just think!" "Awful." "Awful!" " Okay, come with me, please." " No, no, no, no!" "I can't!" " I really can't!" "Let me go..." " I need you to complain by writing!" " No, I can't, I need..." " Please!" "A minute!" "Come with me, please." "Come with me, please." "Please." "Please." "Look at that!" "Godamit!" "Besides cheating on me, she also damages all my cars!" "Open this door!" "Open this door!" "Ouch!" "Help!" "Who are you?" "Relax!" "Ms. Lígia called me to assist her, but I'm leaving." "Oh, is that you?" "Ms. Lígia was crystal clear:" ""When the lad arrives, let him in and ask him to wait"." "That's probably Zefinha wanting to chat." "Nildomar, pay the taxi, please, I have no money in me." "Holy cow!" "She's never said good night to me, but I'm good for paying her taxis." " Hi, how much was the run?" " 50 bucks." "50 bucks?" "Shit, that woman went far!" "Here, I've got 12 bucks." "Take this for now and come by tomorrow to get the rest." " Okay." " Thank you so much." "Are you hurt?" "What happened, Mr. Cristiano has beaten you up?" "Tonight, Olímpia!" "He's gonna kill me tonight!" "Only over my dead body!" "I'll protect you, come!" " Your husband is looking for you." " I don't have a husband anymore!" "You don't?" "You have no idea what that bastard and his belly dancer have put me through!" "By the way, has she come around here?" " No, I haven't seen." " Ok." "That old crone!" "Shit!" "Nildomar, have you seen Cristiano around?" "I don't know nothing, Mr. Eduardo." "I don't know nothing." "Nothing!" "This lobby is worse than the bus station." "Ms. Inês, were you beaten up?" "He had the nerve to beat you up?" "I'm gonna kill that bastard, Olímpia!" "I'll kill him, kill him!" "Relax, I'm gonna get you a sedative." " One less to torment me." " I'm gonna kill Lígia!" "I'm gonna kill her!" "Relax, Ms. Inês!" "Here." "Relax, relax..." "I'll kill him, Olímpia!" "I'll kill Eduardo!" "You're not killing anybody." "Stay calm, be quiet, stay put!" "I'm gonna get you a medicine to treat these wounds." "Dr. Eduardo is gonna thank me for that." "This lobby is so busy tonight!" " Good evening!" " Good evening." "Dr. Eduardo's apartment, please." "I'm gonna kill her!" "I will!" " For God sake, who will you kill?" " Inês!" "Calm down, Dr. Eduardo, calm down..." "Let's go to the office, I have something to tell you." "What?" "Is it about Inês?" " What?" "Tell me." "I wanna know!" " Please..." "Go on." "Olímpia, what is it?" " Open this door, Olímpia!" " Ms. Inês is gonna thank me for that." " Olímpia!" " Open this door!" " In a minute, Ms. Lígia!" " I'm gonna kill her!" "Kill her!" "Gee, Dr. Cristiano!" "Who are you gonna kill?" "Lígia!" "Where is she?" " What?" " Laundry room!" " "Laundry room"?" " Exactly." "Follow me." "Laundry room?" "What are you doing, Olímpia?" "What?" "Lígia?" "Lígia, what's the idea?" "Hey!" "Hey!" " Ms. Lígia's gonna thank me for that!" " Olímpia, open this door!" "Are you sure, Richie?" "He's locked up in this apartment?" " Did you call me?" " Richie is desperate." "If "richies" are desperate, let alone "poorishes"!" "His agent had to deliver a ring to a client who is traveling abroad." " And why didn't he do so?" " He's locked in this apartment." " This apartment?" "I'm gonna check." " Richie, relax." "She is checking." "Take me out of here!" "Hello!" "Where is that bitch of you mistress?" "Does she have a dog?" "It must be in the country house." "I'm gonna kill that bitch!" "If you don't tell me where she is, I'm gonna kill you too." "Calm down!" "She's here, in the toilet." "She decided to redecorate the toilet." "She wants to change the toilet bowl." "Listen to me, you bitch..." " Open this door!" " Open this door, Olímpia!" "Open this door, Olímpia!" "Excuse me." "Listen, I give up." "You can go upstairs, but leave the knife here." "The regulations do not allow armed people in the building." "This is not a knife, it's a fake dagger." "I'm a belly dancer." "Can't you see my "djalabah"?" "Don't even think of showing it to me." "Respect me, I'm on duty!" "Please, ma'am, please." "Go on, go on." " The knife must stay here." " This is not a knife, sir!" "The knife stays, ma'am!" "The knife stays!" "The knife stays!" "Oh, my Saint Divaneide da Silva, help me for the love of God!" "Help me!" "Hi!" " Dear God!" "Who do you want to kill?" " Dr. Eduardo, quick, please!" " My "djelabah" is downstairs!" " Portuguese, I can't understand Arabic." "Where is Eduardo?" "I need to talk to Dr. Eduardo." "Where is he?" "He is... at the balcony, doing some gardening." "He decided to change the flower beds." "There..." "Of course!" "Why haven't I thought of that before?" "Nildomar!" "Nildomar!" "If he thinks I'm gonna let Nildomar free him, he's totally wrong." "Nildomar!" " Inês?" " So this is lover?" "What morals have you got to ask me about lovers?" " I just came here to..." " Shut your face!" " What?" "He is a go-go boy?" " I just sell..." "You too, shut your face!" "I need to talk to your mistress, I need to tell her I was childish..." " I got it, I got it." "Stay calm." " I am calm." "I am calm." "Where is she?" "You here?" "Olímpia is to blame for all this mess?" "I'm gonna kill Olímpia!" "I'm gonna kill her!" " So it's all her fault!" " I'll kill Olímpia!" "I'll kill her!" " Nildomar!" "We're locked in here!" " I can't understand you, Ms. Inês!" " I can't hear you!" " Come on up!" " I can't understand you!" " We're locked up here!" " The scumbag who hit our truck!" " Let's go there!" " Can I help you?" "Can I help you?" " We'll get her anyway." " Open this door!" " Please, ma'am, please." " I don't want bread, no bread!" " Open this door!" " Out, out!" "Get out my way!" " But what is going on?" "Nildomar!" "Nildomar, Nildomar!" "What's happening, Nildomar?" " They're still moving this late?" " What moving, Ms. Orávia?" " The front desk is acephalous!" " Front desk is what?" "And you're gargling in the middle of the street?" "Look, Ms. Orávia." "I can't understand what Ms. Inês is saying." " What do you think she wants to say?" " Can't understand a simple gesture?" " The meeting will be held upstairs!" " Alright, then" "Nildomar's not answering, he might be coming up." "He better not enter... or I'll lock him in the living room!" "Where is that woman?" " Who are you?" " Where is the woman?" " What woman?" " Where is she?" " Who are you?" "Hired killers?" " No!" " I want the money for the crash!" " There's nobody home!" " Open this door, Olímpia!" " I'll be damned!" " I'm gonna kill that stupid chick!" " So there is nobody home, right?" "Paraíba, Duplex, Mentirinha, let's check this!" " Take me out of here!" " Take me out of here!" " Open here!" " Godamit!" " Take me out of here!" " Open this door, Olímpia!" " Olímpia!" "Where is she?" " Olímpia, you're gonna pay me!" " She locked me up!" " You're gonna pay me!" "How could you do something like that?" "Hey, hey!" "Hold it!" "Who is gonna pay for my losses!" "What's this sound?" "What's going on?" "One has to stay to keep an eye on her." " What's this?" "What's this?" " Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me." "Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me." "Since everyone is here, we can start the meeting." " What's this?" "This is crazy!" " Wow!" "Mr. Cláudio, you're the manager, stand up to your responsibilities." "I've stood up to my responsibilities." "You can unload the truck, there will be no moving anymore." "Hold it, hold it." "Who is gonna pay for my financial losses?" " Olímpia!" " That's right, let's go." "Excuse me." "Besides the truck, you'll have to pay for my car rear light, you hear me?" "And for my anniversary party that slipped by." " The shorts you tore off!" " The money for my belly-dancing show." " The whiskey you drank!" " My commission!" " What about my meeting?" " Pain and suffering!" "Okay." "If I tell you that everything I did was to see you happy will you believe me?" " No!" "I'll pay!" "I'll pay." "If there's something my mother taught me... is to comply with my obligations." "I might come from a poor family, but my family is honest." "I'll pay, alright?" "I'll refill the whiskey I drank." "The tennis shorts too, no problem." "The car light, you can rest assured, Mr. Cristiano, I'll pay for that too." "Ms. Lígia's car, the party, the guy's truck... the lad's commission, the girl's show, ok?" "Everything up to pain and suffering." "It's a pity I've got no calculator, or I could do the math right now." "Can I borrow yours, Ms. Inês?" "Thank you, Ms. Inês, you're so good to me." "You never refuse help, not even when we need most." "I'm gonna do the math in my bedroom, then I'll come talk to you..." "By the away..." "I'm gonna give you my golden pivot-tooth as advance payment." "Here, Dr. Eduardo, take it." "Excuse me, excuse me!" "Olímpia, excuse me, excuse me." "I'm coming with you, sweetheart..." "I'm coming with you." "I'm good at math and have 12 bucks to receive from Ms. Inês." " I'll come with you." " Thank you, Nildomar." "Come on, Olímpia..." "Don't be like that, Olímpia..." "Look, Olímpia..." " Look at me, Olímpia..." " Wait, Nildomar, I need to focus!" "Olímpia..." "I have some savings that I don't need now plus the 12 bucks from Ms. Inês." "Get this money and pay all of them." "There!" "Everything will be alright." "Everything will be alright." "Well, of course, when you get on your feet, you repay me, ok?" "What's the matter, Olímpia?" "What?" "What?" "I'm so stupid I was thinking you were gonna make me a proposal or something like that..." " Olímpia!" " Can we have a little word?" " Of course." "Come on in, Dr. Eduardo." " Excuse me..." " Come on in, Ms. Inês." " Excuse me..." " Excuse me, Olímpia." "We need to have a little word with you, is that ok?" " Of course, Mr. Cristiano." " Excuse me, excuse me." "Make yourself at home, Mr. Cláudio." "Is everybody here?" "Don't take me wrong, but I was packing my suitcase." "Can you reach for my suitcase, Nildomar?" " Excuse me." " Up there, Nildomar." "Put down here, please." "Let me get my clothes." "What do you want to say, Dr. Eduardo?" "I'm listening, you can say." "Take you pivot back, here." "I have no use for it." " Don't do that, doc..." " This came from your hardworking." "There's no reason why I should take that." "Let me tell you something." "What's a pair of shorts worth, after all?" " What is a rear light worth?" " Yeah, what is a rear light?" "Olímpia, we can do the anniversary party tomorrow." " As for the car crash..." " It wasn't so serious after all." "My friend, you're in a tougher position, forget about my commission." " Great, great." " There." "I'll come back later to get the rest of my stuff, ok?" "Give me..." "You're leaving now, when we're almost?" "I can't, Nildomar, I can't live in a house... into which I cast so deep a shadow and made so many people unhappy." " Never mind that, Olímpia!" " Come on." "Will you stay, if we give you a raise?" "No, this is priceless, Ms. Inês." "Money is the least!" "Listen, Olímpia, I'll double your salary." " Wow!" "Double?" " To double the salary is a good idea." " Excuse me." " How's that?" " Double the salary." " How's that?" "I'm so sad." "I need some time to think." "Excuse me, excuse me." " What's that?" "Did you lock the door?" " Olímpia!" "Trick 122, bosses overwhelmed by pity!" "Divaneide da Silva, page 78." "Olímpia, were you serious when you mentioned marriage?"
