A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing

A NETFLIX SERIES
You ask me to
make things more clear though.
And many of us have tried.
A woman once came to me,
this is a while ago.
She'd been sick
and she had just had it.
A rare condition
that affected even her mind.
And pretty soon
we saw she's hearing voices.
And she just wanted
the possibility to walk and talk at all.
Of course, my heart would break open
Oh yeah, man.
It was very, very, very sad indeed.
But our paths are never clear.
I could do nothing to cure that woman.
But then it was my surprise
when I fell in love with her daughter.
Gisele
The love of my life.
FAITH AND HEALING
My wife, you are magical.
My family legacy
And she gave me a miracle.
Oh, such a miracle.
Our daughter, our angel!
Come on over. Come on down.
Are you being shy?
Come stand next to me.
That's right, Come on down.
And also, by the way,
it's our angel's birthday.
But I'm the one getting the present.
Can you make it happen for me, little one?
Why don't you show off
that beautiful voice of yours?

I had tried
everything to cure my thrombosis.
Everything!
That's when I heard about this place.
But they healed me, a non-believer.
I was blind!
I thought it was a scam.
All a scam.
But I was desperate!
That there's only one path ♪
I thought about giving up many
times, but Matias never gave up on me.
Matias made me whole.
Say it again, Mr. Tomé.
Matias made me whole!
Say it again, Mr. Tomé.
Matias made me whole!
Yeah!
This on here, huh?
Had to see it to believe it.
Ah, Mr. Tomé.
Oh, so many thanks.
So many thanks.
I'm really touched.
I can barely hold back the tears.
CHARITY IS THE WAY
But I want to hear more.
Mônica, come over here.
Come here, huh?
I, uh
For five months I couldn't sleep
I had a terribly strong headache.
I couldn't bear it.
And even my doctor,
he tried basically everything.
Everything he tried,
nothing helped, it was hell.
Then I finally let in my faith
and I met Matias.
Ah.
I met Matias.
All through faith.
He made me whole.
Hurrah! Hurrah!
I have faith!
Hallelujah!
Girl, you okay?
Mm-hmm.
Thank you. Thank you.
Line up for your pill. Please get in line.
What's your name, my child?
Lúcia.
Lúcia
Is it serious?
Why don't you wait over there.
Just wait right here for him.
What is your name, my child?
Marta.
Do you have faith, Marta?
I have faith.
What's your name, my child?
HOUSE OF THE SAINTS
- YOU WERE ACTING WEIRD
- I HAD LOW BLOOD PRESSURE
AM I GONNA SEE YOU TONIGHT?
Matias is coming. Okay?
- Want some water?
- No, thank you.
This is amateur.
What do I pay you for?
That can't happen.
Not on my team.
I'm sorry.
- I don't want "sorry." I want results.
- Okay.
I'm sorry for making you wait.
Occupational hazard.
Occupational hazard.
Lúcia.
We've seen you coming regularly, yeah?
I make myself go.
Even when I'm in pain.
That is some faith
I see that in you.
The battle is long.
Inoperable.
And, uh
It's spreading.
I just don't know what to do.
I'm all out of options.
Shhh.
- I'm all out of options.
- Easy
You have to calm your soul. Please calm.
Here.
Calm yourself.
Take it.
When I saw you earlier,
I felt something special in you.
I have an idea.
Why don't you go get your things
and stay with us at the house?
For an intensive treatment.
Is that a good idea, Gi?
- Yeah. It's a great idea.
- Mmm.
I'll make an exception.
We don't normally do this.
But I think that in your case,
I have to do something different.
What do you say?
I
Of course I accept.
Of course.
So why the sad face then? Hmm?
Let's put a smile on your face.
There's that smile. Yes!
I will need you to
fill out this form please
and then I'll take your picture.
Please, sit.
Welcome to our house.
Make yourself at home.
Gi will show you around.
This way, my dear.
Oh.
I can lend you some clothes.
Whatever you need.
You can have your choice.
Anything you want.
I really don't know what to say.
As long as we can get you better.
Do you have a cell phone?
I know it might not be easy,
maybe its best if we disconnect a bit?
Are you spying on us, honey?
No. I just wanted to help, I'm sorry.
Why don't you make the bed, then.
Your dad is a very good man.
Is this something
he's done for other people?
Here, try this out.
It should fit you.
It's a beautiful day outside.
Police are still searching for
São Paulo State Commissioner,
Carlos Alberto de Lima.
Here's what you asked for.
Alberto is one
of the top men in São Paulo police.
Upgraded.
This one goes three and a half miles.
Awesome.
Nobody know
his whereabouts since his disappearance.
His car is also missing
somewhere in the Sao Paulo area.
He was last seen Thursday morning
and has not been seen since then.
Precinct was hell today.
They still can't find his car.
And they won't.
Verô. Come here.
What is it?
How far is too far?
So you got Brandão.
Yeah.
I guess I can kinda see why you'd do that.
But this is starting to scare me now.
This is the commissioner
we're talking about.
The way you're going,
too many are gonna die,
And it doesn't seem to bother you.
This guy killed my father
In front of my eyes, okay?
This guy killed my father,
do you understand?
But you know revenge
doesn't bring him back, does it.
Oh, yeah?
And how am I supposed to fight the mafia?
Tell me!
I'll get justice however I can.
I'm not the one to blame.
You don't want to help me? Fine.
Is that the new orphanage?
Yeah.
It was Cosmas and Damian,
now it's the House of the Saints.
Different name and address,
but they do the same thing.
I'll go see what I can find out.
Fifteen years.
For 15 years they've
been putting people into the system.
Imagine how many.
Look here.
The director is this Olga Ribeiro woman.
Oh I followed that woman.
We are proud to be offering
these boys, and girls as well,
a second chance.
But that is only made possible
thanks to the generosity of benefactors,
such as yourself.
Our school is based on
a military educational system.
It gives the kids
a sense of discipline and order.
We have faith!
I'm sorry, Ms. Adriana,
but photos are not allowed.
- Sure.
- To protect the children.
You understand, right?
We have faith, we have faith.
We have faith, we have faith.
We have faith, we have faith.
Formation!
- Tell me who you are!
- Squad of the Faith!
Do you have faith?
Yes, we have faith!
No resting! One more time!
So, you liked what you saw?
It was truly very impressive.
I was just saying that to my partner.
Oh, that's wonderful!
So, of course, you'll be
joining our board of benefactors?
That's our biggest benefactor.
GREAT BENEFACTOR
HOUSE OF THE SAINTS
So they're all orphans here?
No. Not all of them.
A lot of them are in
desperate need of help, Ms. Adriana.
They're at-risk youths,
They've been exposed to violence.
Give me a second?
Of course.
Please excuse me just a moment?
- Take your time.
- Be right back.
It'll just take a minute, and
Wait, miss! Can you help me?
What is going on here?
I've been trying to tell these guys,
my brother's inside there.
ORPHANAGE
Don't I get to see him?
You know I have that right, miss.
Without an order signed by a judge,
it's not possible
- Deal with this.
- Hey. Hold on! Wait!
What are you doing?
What? This is bullshit.
Such bullshit!
Motherfucker.
SHE'S GOING BACK
What? Are you leaving already?
I'll be in touch.
Oh, my friend
I'm so sorry.
I know.
Hm
But I'm fine.
Don't be worried.
- I'm fine.
- Are you sure?
- Mm-hmm.
- Hmm
I've rearranged
everything at the nursing home.
Very hush-hush
Thought it'd be better.
Can you
find out what's in this?
It's the healing pill of Matias Carneiro,
the missionary.
It's him, Prata.
Matias is your big foe?
Damn
Look. I found their orphanage also.
The future agents?
They were doing some sort of ritual
or something like that.
When Julia was an orphan,
they took her when she was only 12.
Easy target for Matias.
Yes, detective?
Your door was locked.
So the dead can't get away.
Hm.
To what do I owe
the pleasure of such an illustrious visit?
The Box Serial Killer case.
Exhume the bodies from the farm, you sure?
Is there a chance
some of the DNA was wrong?
Has it ever happened to you?
To me?
No.
Never.
COURT ORDER
Hmm. Okay, then.
Farm
Ah! Verônica! Damn it!
So I'm going to get popped
or die of a heart attack.
Soup's good, don't you think?
Mm.
I think I'll stick with the wine.
This soup reminds me of
the orphanage where I used to live.
The director there was very abusive.
Punishing.
It was just me and my few friends
against this terrible brutality.
We didn't always win.
Would you believe
he broke one of the kids arms?
He just kept beating him
I took care of my friend.
I would pray for him.
I slept by his side.
And just like that,
he woke up in the morning
No pain at all. Healed.
You never forget
your first time. You know?
Back then, I didn't even
think of the founding a church.
Not really.
I just wanted to help a brother.
I wanted to see him cured.
And I'm gonna help you, too, Lúcia.
Come.
Come get healed.
Hey!
It's me.
Come here.
The other night, after I left here,
I saw this woman at my house.
Uh, Monica. She spoke at church today.
And she was at your house?
My dad wanted to help her.
When I got home, she was
crying on the stairs.
But I could swear she kinda seemed
possessed.
And also she was naked.
And for some reason
now I see her eve where I go.
I can't forget her.
Maybe it had something to do
with her being sick.
If you're so worried about it,
why don't you just go ask your dad
or maybe ask your mom?
I gotta go.
Come here.
I've seen you at church.
What are you doing here?
- My name's Marta. I'm here to help you.
- I don't want any. Leave me alone!
Listen. That guy following us
works for your dad, yeah?
Tell me what you know.
Look, your dad isn't
the cool person you thought he was.
You're beginning to see that, right?
Come sit here.
You and I don't keep secrets,
yeah?
You wanna tell me
where you got these clothes?
Was it from Carolina?
The donation bin.
I took them, I'm sorry.
There's no reason to be afraid of me.
Do you have any more clothes
that are like this?
This is nice.
I like it.
I bet this looks gorgeous on you.
And that necklace?
I found it.
Aren't you happy here, little one?
I am.
So why lie to me?
Why do you lead a double life?
Taking clothes from those
that really need it?
And sneaking out of the house?
You make me do things I don't want to do.
I don't want to have
a bodyguard following you everywhere.
I'm not that person, Angela.
I'm only joy.
I'm sorry, Dad.
It's just that sometimes I'm confused.
I I wish
that my life were like everyone else's.
Calm down your soul.
Go get changed.
Take a shower,
wash off the stench of cigarettes.
Get some rest.
Don't worry.
I won't tell your mother about this.
Dad, why was Mônica crying?
Mônica?
Did you see her crying?
I heard.
I went to drink some water, and I heard.
You think maybe
it was a dream, little one?
No, she was naked.
Naked?
So you did see her.
Mônica was so happy when she left here.
Yeah, she gave
that beautiful testimony at church.
It doesn't make sense.
Maybe I should ask your mother.
No.
Well, you're sure you saw her, right?
Maybe I'm mistaken.
Honey, it's all right. It's me.
No!
What's wrong?
You all right?
Huh?
Yeah.
Might as well get a start on the day
DISCONTINUE SERVICE
SERVICE DISCONTINUED SUCCESSFULLY
I just did it.
Good morning!
Oh! You missed it!
The breakfast we had
was like a hotel!
Is it always like this?
What is it like in there?
In the Healing House.
Huh?
You've never been?
Oh, it's
it's hard to explain.
And, um everything's like a blur.
Did you cry?
What are you doing still in pajamas?
You have to dress for rehearsal.
Go get ready inside.
You look great, Lúce.
I'll go get it.
Start with vocal warm-ups, Ângela.
Show me where
the computers are, miss,
and I'll get your network up and runnin'.
No internet
is like no water nowadays, huh?
Hm.
So I put it through a power cycle,
and that should be it
Okay. Let me know when you're done.
Of course.
I'm in Angela's room.
Ângela.
Is what I heard true?
You asked about the crying?
I woke up in the middle of the night
and saw Monica on the stairs
I thought she was crying,
but I talked to Dad
and everything's all right.
My God
I'm sure she cried because its, uh
totally normal when an intense experience
overwhelms your system like that.
In fact, it's expected. No big deal.
You do it on purpose, don't you?
You say things to make your father upset
and then he comes to me
and I have to fix it.
Go on, get up, let's go.
Again
Again you're off.
THE HEALING IS THE GIF
CHOOSE WHICH NETWORK PROBLEM
YOU WISH TO RESOLVE
RESTARTING
Just finished with the girl's laptop.
Now to move on to the dad.
Uh
Uh 'Scuse me. Um
I just finished. That's it
There any other computers in the house?
Nelson! Nelson! Do you copy?
Nelson! Do you copy?
Can I help you with anything?
'Mornin.
I'm here to look at your old network
and the little girl said
there was another computer.
I don't use a computer.
You can go now.
Thank you.
Well?
I got into the computer for Ângela.
And he gives me this shit.
That guy is fuckin' cheap.
Look at this.
Is that one Mônica?
No.
Another one.
Then I finally let in my faith.
And I met Matias.
He made me whole.
Amen! Amen!
YOU ARE THE CHOSEN ONE!
When the sun shines ♪
Through your bedroom window ♪
Hey, Prata.
Okay then. I'll look for you.
Hate to say,
that pill of Matias' was sugar.
There's more crap in
this soda than in the pill.
A Placebo of Faith.
Is there anything more
perverse than using
people's faith to get power?
This guy is dangerous.
Yeah, I know.
Even more dangerous than Brandão.
Yeah, but I've gone
too far to turn back, Prata.
Verô,
I know how much
your father meant to you,
I know this more than anyone else.
And I know,
I see that you're not okay.
I'm worried about you.
Stop. What is this?
I already died once, I'm not dying again.
You've got to live, woman. Live!
Go tell then the truth, Verônica, please!
Tell Paulo and your kids.
Time's now!
If you want I can even
go over there with you
Verônica,
I just can not take it anymore.
I've reached my limit.
Your kids are growing up without you.
How much more are you're willing to lose?
I think its best if you go.
You're not going to believe this.
I got that cheesecake you love.
Dad, those were my clothes.
Oh, guess I forgot to say.
Your mother thought
they should go back to donations.
There's a lotta people in need.
And you already
have enough things as it is.
Remember that game
that we used to play, you and me?
"You know what I like about you?"
And you'd say, "No."
And I'd say, "Your nose!"
"Your cheek!"
"Your tummy!"
Hmm.
But I wanna change it.
You know what I don't like about you now?
I don't like when these lips
keep secrets from me.
I don't like when you lock
your thoughts away from me up here.
What's the purpose of asking
Lúcia about the Healing House?
Because you had lied to me.
I lied?
- Mônica
- Hm.
I I'm sure she was crying.
Of course, so she cried.
But you said she didn't.
Oh, geez.
Where'd you get that I said she didn't?
Is this because
you've been drinking when you go out?
This same thing happened
to your grandmother.
It was drinking that finally got her
Judith would start getting confused,
she'd have these visions.
For what?
It was evil.
That kind of thing is genetic in us.
It's in your DNA, I'm afraid.
And so
your grandmother, I couldn't save her.
And if this is the way it's affecting you
we're gonna have to have
a psychiatrist take a look at you
And I'm very scared you'll go crazy
like your grandmother did
Please, I don't even
like thinking about it.
Yeah, you're right.
Sometimes I don't even know who I am
The choices I've made,
the person I have become
So you know who you are, Verô?
You are one badass woman.
A mad genius, determined and nice,
with the body of a goddess.
Beautiful just the way you are.
You're the best thing that happened
to me in all this mess, you know that?
Hm.
So now you profess
your love to me, Verô? Huh?
No
Well, uh
you're gonna love me, girl, even more
after what I'm about to tell you.
Okay?
Our favorite missionary was once accused
of abusing girls sexually.
I'm talking multiple counts.
Far as we can tell,
swept under the rug each time.
Hushed up.
Guess who helped.
Rossi.
Four women were silenced
and Matias' name stayed clean.
When was that?
Just about three years ago.
Lúcia, Mônica
He never stopped.
Genius!
Whoa, whoa! Wait.
Stay a bit longer.
Not possible
But maybe after
I go see my kids and then
Okay?
Oh, Verô
I got you a motorcycle.
License plate, serial number
All clean.
Please try to keep it in one piece.
I don't make guarantees.
You lose your cell phone?
Time for dinner.
CHIEF CALLED ME IN.
GOING TO THE PRECINCT.
I'LL LET YOU KNOW WHEN I'M DONE.
[somber music playing
Hm.
You want?
Hm.
Hm.
Put your gun on the table.
Please now, Chief. Let's not go through
Are you deaf?
Put your gun on
the fucking table right now.
Hm.
Shall we skip the opening act?
Let's say I know you're protecting Janete.
There must be some kind of mistake,
I don't know any
You lie straight to my face?
Who are you working for Nelson?
- For you Chief.
- Oh great.
So open your mouth
and start talking.
Where's Janete?
Where is she hiding?
I told you before,
I don't know any Janete.
You deleted the photo of the suspect,
you violated confidential files,
and you left a mess for us to find.
It's time to start talking.
Cooperate. Now.
You going to kill me
inside the precinct? You sure?
They suspect me, but don't know about you.
You better get out of here now.
Go.
Disappear.
I will find you.
