Only for Love (2022) s01e05 Episode Script
Episode 5
A NETFLIX SERIES
[bus approaching]
Sorry, sir.
Hate to intrude, but that's my seat.
[man] I'm getting off at the next stop.
I appreciate that, but I paid
for this spot. Here's my ticket.
It's easier to get off from here.
You can't just plop down
wherever you want!
Hey. You can sit here if you want.
Thanks.
Thank you.
I swear, if I ever become famous,
I'm gonna have a great,
big bus for myself.
I'll have my face on it.
Six-feet high on both sides.
You, um, play the accordion?
Mmm-hmm.
- It's not in your way, is it?
- No, you're good.
I'm scared to put this thing
in the baggage compartment.
There are some fiber cases
that would keep it protected really well.
- I know a guy who makes them.
- Oh, cool.
He's in Goiânia.
- Are you from there?
- Oh, yeah.
Born and raised.
You give off a country vibe.
[both chuckling]
Are you playing at the music festival
in Igarapava this week?
Uh, no, no, I have family there.
I didn't know there was a festival.
Oh, yeah! You should
definitely come and check it out.
It's not that kind of trip.
Good-looking guy like you
traveling all alone?
I figure someone broke your heart.
I'm going for my mother.
The old bridge across the Grande River?
- You know it?
- Mmm-hmm.
It was her favorite place.
I'm
going there to spread her ashes.
[Deusa gasps] I'm sorry.
- I've been going on and on
- No, no, no! It's fine!
I didn't realize you were grieving.
That's terrible. Please forgive me.
You made me laugh. I should thank you.
[sweet music playing]
It was nice to meet you.
[Tadeu] Look at that.
Not a bad setup.
Tadeu?
- What are you guys doing here?
- I can't believe this. Why that band?
Because they're amazing. Could that be it?
No. They're not as good without Deusa.
You know I'm right.
- They'll get better.
- [César scoffs]
We're in the middle of a financial crisis.
We have to be focusing on Deusa.
That's all.
Okay, we'll schedule
the studio around you then.
Oh, my God!
César, why can't you
admit you made a mistake?
You're rolling the dice on one person.
We can't wager everything on Deusa.
Move the band to a small label.
The investment is minimal,
but it could pay off, big time.
You know, it's funny.
You asked me for help to save the company
and I offered a plan.
You should open some Champagne.
This plan is a no-go.
'Cause Deusa has
a relationship with Tadeu.
You're going to disrupt my plans.
What do you mean, "your plans"?
How does their relationship
disrupt your plans?
Why didn't you say anything?
Well, it just happened last night.
You weren't even home.
You could have texted,
called, emailed, but you did nothing.
I know, Deusa, but this just
has to do with me and the band.
You think the band showing up at my office
is none of my business?
So this is your office?
It's a figure of speech.
Truth is, I'm happy for you.
I'm just surprised.
We can talk about this later, okay?
I have to leave on a trip today.
I have interviews, concerts in São Paulo.
Promotional stuff.
It'll be short, just three days.
São Paulo. Huh.
Apparently I'm not
the only one who has news.
- I'm not in charge of my life, Tadeu.
- That's pretty obvious.
Deusa, Tadeu.
Time to go.
[sighs heavily]
[Patrício] Wow, that's intense.
Yeah, apparently I don't even
know her anymore.
- No, I meant the coffee.
- Huh?
The coffee's strong.
[Eva] Looks like Deusa's
really gonna be famous, huh?
Yeah, from what I can tell,
César's serious here.
He's investing a big pile of cash.
Big time.
Ready for the studio?
- [Valdo] Oh, yeah!
- [Roberta] Let's do it.
- [Valdo] Let's go make some music.
- [Patrício] Yeah! I'm ready.
- Ana Lígia, where's the bathroom?
- Down the hall on the right.
- [Eva] I'll meet you over there.
- Good.
[intriguing music playing]
How did you get in here?
I'm with the band and Ana Lígia.
Wrong place.
I have nothing to do with that band.
Kriss!
Daniel Soh said some
great things about you.
You met?
Mmm-hmm.
He was going to record a song I wrote.
He talked to you about it
on the day of the accident.
- Remember?
- Of course! You're the writer!
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry. Forgive me.
Sit down, please.
What's your name?
Eva.
[César] Eva.
César. Hi.
- I know.
- [César laughs]
He was convinced
your song would be a big hit.
It will be.
Have you negotiated
the rights with anyone?
Um
I've had offers.
But you're here,
so you must have turned them down.
I want this song
to be heard all across the country,
so I'm only going to give it
to someone really big.
- Huge.
- Someone
like me?
- Yeah! That'd be good.
- Hmm.
Here.
I figure if
Deusa's career takes off,
then we can make a deal.

MIX OF BEYONCÉ AND JOELMA
NO CREATIVITY!
[Cesár in English] What do you mean?
That's it?
BORING SONG, I COULDN'
LISTEN TO THE END!
EVEN I CAN LIP-SYNC!
SHE'S NO GODDESS!
Not even Top 10?
Close the other deals!
Did you talk to Alex?
Payola always works.
Then double it, Edgar!
Cesár, you're paying to play the song?
I said I'd do whatever it took
to put you on top, didn't I?
Well
Well, how'd we do?
You're authentic, charismatic, different.
Man! That's hip, right?
- [groans] Patrício!
- [Valdo laughing] "Hip," yeah!
- What? What did I say?
- [Ana] Sure is, Patrício.
I think we have a chance
to do something new.
My job is to bring out
your natural talent.
But it begins with
your commitment to succeed.
After that, together,
we'll find the perfect song
to launch the band.
[Valdo] Cool!
I made a list of songs
for us to test to see what feels right.
I'm working on the bass.
Tomorrow we can get to work
and start recording the vocals.
- [Ana] Great.
- [Tadeu] Sounds perfect.
Wait, hang on.
Everybody's gonna sing?
- Of course!
- [Rafael] Uh-huh.
- Isn't the band supposed to be different?
- [Patrício clears throat]
Here are your sheets,
so you can start getting ready.
Appreciate it.
Ana Lígia, can I talk to you for a second?
[Ana] Sure, come on.
I'm not sure we should
kick Roberta out of the band.
- [Ana groans]
- Well, she just started with us.
Roberta's a good singer,
but she doesn't have
Eva's charisma presence.
I know that, but Eva says
she doesn't want to be a singer.
Keep in mind the girl is young.
A few days in the studio can change a lot.
That's why I invited her.
I guarantee you,
Eva is definitely the right choice.
[sighs] I don't know.
Trust me.
In the meantime, get closer to her,
get to know her better.
It's your band, Tadeu.
It's important that you believe in it.
She has technique and star quality.
When Deusa moved on, that's what you lost.
Do you ever wonder if you made
the right choice in betting on me?
Sure, yeah.
I know you'll be a big star.
I'm sure you must feel uncomfortable
with a few things, the blond wig,
the hours, the outfits, the, uh
- The dancing.
- [laughs] The dancing.
I just want you to know
I'm really trying to get it right.
I know it.
Well, one thing I'm sure about,
we really need to record some new songs.
Yeah, I agree with that.
Which reminds me,
there's a song Daniel was interested in,
and I've been thinking
that we should have you record it.
- What?
- Relax.
Excuse me,
a song meant for Daniel in my voice?
- Mmm-hmm.
- No way!
I have good news.
You have an interview
tomorrow at 10:00 with Salazine.
Wow, this guy must
be really important to you.
Look at you,
you're getting really nervous.
- I am not.
- Ha!
Ha.
I've always been a fan of Salazine,
but the jerk off has never published
anything positive about my work.
Now that he's written the article
about how I found you,
maybe things'll be different.

[in English] You want another beer?
I'll go up and get one for you, okay?
- How about for all of us?
- [Valdo] Yup.
- I'll go with you.
- [Valdo] Mmm-hmm.
I'm worried about you.
You're different.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
I'm glad you came.
[in Portuguese]
I got closer and started to say ♪
- [in English] Cool if I sit here?
- Obviously! Go right ahead.
[in Portuguese] Oh, if I catch you
Oh, oh, my God, if I catch you ♪
[in English] I'm so happy
we got back together.
Hold on there, missy!
We're talking about getting back together,
we're not back together yet.
[Sônia] Oh!
Hey, see those two over there?
They're the only couple in here
not listening to the music.
They're not a couple, Tadeu.
- Oh, no?
- Mmm-mmm.
- It's a Tinder date. Just take a look.
- [laughs] What makes you so sure?
Watch.
He's pulling his shoulders
all the way back right now.
And there, she's trying to look smart,
but she's really nervous.
Look at how she keeps moving her straw.
Wow. Now you got me worried
you might be able to read my mind.
Be careful, I look nice,
but to tell you the truth, I'm dangerous.
You have a nice voice.
You're charismatic.
Ever wanted to perform?
- [phone ringing]
- Um
- Being a singer in public? In a band?
- [ringing continues]
I gotta take this.
[Gorete] All right, everybody!
Long live the cuckolds! Thank you!
[crowd cheering and clapping]
- [Tadeu] How's it going?
- Good!
Listen, I had to move so fast,
I never said goodbye to anyone.
- What's all happening there?
- Oh, it's awesome.
Really, Ana Lígia's been so helpful.
[chuckles] The boys are in heaven.
[Deusa] Oh! That's cool.
I wish I could be there to see it.
[Tadeu chuckles] No, you don't.
Not with all you have to do.
Come on, you have a big show tomorrow.
Yeah, I know.
I should be happy at this point.
It's just I feel so lost.
There's gonna be important people
there tomorrow.
What if I fail?
Hey, you won't fail.
You're gonna be extraordinary.
Trust me, you're gonna
mesmerize that audience.
I wish I could be there to see it.
So do it! Yeah! I'll pay for you ticket.
It'll all be covered.
It's less than two hours on a plane.
I'll have a driver
pick you up at the airport.
[chuckles] Deusa, come on.
I wasn't serious. That'd be crazy.
Don't be so worried, Tadeu.
I want to do this, the money's nothing.
It's my treat.
It's not It's not the money.
The band has lots of things happening now.
I can't just go.
Come on, Tadeu, it's only for one day.
Can't you work it out?
If you don't wanna come in the morning,
you can just come at night.
The show's later, you'll be in and out.
You can go back to Goiânia in the morning,
you won't miss a thing.
You know something?
Ever since you left the band
I've been nervous that we
would never survive your absence.
But today's the first day
I believed we would.
It surprised me.
I'm not going to São Paulo.
Not because I can't, because I
I don't want to.
[somber music playing]
[upbeat music playing]
- Got any gluten-free ale?
- Yeah.
You can always make things
more boring, right?
[both chuckle]
- I'll bring it.
- Patrício talks a lot about you.
He told me your advice
helped get us back together
and I wanted to thank you for that.
No worries. I should thank you, really.
I own this joint and I do all right.
Without women like you,
I don't know where I'd be.
- [Sônia laughs nervously]
- [chuckling]
The change is for you, okay?
Here you go, handsome.
Hey. Why don't we get
something to eat back at the house?
I want to hang at the bar
with the band and Valdo.
With Valdo?
That's the way it is?
See you around, Eva.
Wait, I'm just keeping
[Valdo] What happened?
I guess she must be tired or
something.
Hold on a minute, Valdo.
Here's to all the free spirits,
which is us.
How about drinking to what
brought us together? To music!
- [Tadeu] Sounds good to me.
- To music and success!
- [Tadeu] To the band!
- [Ana] Yeah!
- [Tadeu] Look, you see that up there?
- [Deusa] What?
That star formation, that's Orion's Belt.
Oh, yeah? Sounds like you made that up.
No, seriously.
Those stars are all part of Orion's Belt.
- [Deusa] Uh-huh.
- The Southern Cross and the Three Sisters.
That's cool.
You're right. Does Goiás
have the most beautiful sky or what?
You haven't seen the stars in Paraíba.
There are all these stars. More, in fact.
Oh, yeah?
Sure. I saw them.
That's surprising, 'cause I can
see a star from Paraíba in front of me.
Sweet talker.
I can stop complimenting you. Just ask me.
No, you can keep going.
[somber music playing]
[Deusa laughs] Let me open it.
[Tadeu] Have a little patience.
I can do it.
Look, just push here.
- [Tadeu] No way.
- Way.
You always surprise me.
[Tadeu] Should we save the jar? It's cute.
Really? We have the same one already.
I know, but this one's bigger,
it'll hold more stuff.
We don't even have enough stuff
to fill up one of these things.
How 'bout I keep each
of your kisses in separate jars?
[laughs softly] Smooth.
If things keep going the way they've been,
we'll need much more.
- Oh, yeah?
- Mmm-hmm.

- I'm sorry, guys.
It's all right.
It's normal to be nervous, you know.
I can speak for myself.
Huh? All right!
Nelton, you were terrific. You all were.
It was awesome, you rocked.
I'd like to hear Eva try it.
[laughs nervously] Huh?
Only a test. Everyone else did it.
- Go ahead.
- [Tadeu] Try it.
- Fine.
- [Valdo] You'll be great.

[Eva laughing]
[Valdo] She rocks!
- [Eva] Was it really all right?
- [Valdo] Yeah.
[Tadeu] It was amazing.
- [Valdo] Beautiful.
- It really was amazing, Eva.
You were awesome!
[Eva chuckles]
What's going on?
The band's gonna have another vocalist?
What's happening?
Is everyone going to sing?
What are we doing?
Are we some pop band?
A church choir?
Mmm-mmm.
I'm done.
Let her be alone. She needs to calm down.
Everybody take a break. Have some coffee.
- [Tadeu sighs] All right.
- [Valdo] I'm gonna have a smoke.
- Do you still need me?
- [Rafael] No, you're fine.
- [Valdo] Oof, it's gettin' real in here.
- Nelson.
You have a beautiful voice.
You're great.
Uh, I have a fiancé, you know.
I'm not the same as you.
Rafael.
Let's go somewhere else, okay?
All right?
Yeah, of course.
[downbeat music playing]
[Eva] Roberta, please wait!
You're overreacting! We were just playing!
- [scoffs] "Just playing"?
- Yeah!
You spent all day yesterday
saying the studio's fantastic.
That Ana Lígia's the coolest,
that Tadeu is awesome,
and Patrício is hilarious.
I got it, Eva.
They want you
and you obviously want it too.
You know that's crazy.
I would never do that to you.
No way.
I gotta go clear my head.
We'll talk it over later.
Deusa, are you awake in there?
[knocking continues]
Deusa!
[sighs]
Deusa!
- You look awful!
- Relax, I'll be fine.
- What happened here?
- I had trouble sleeping.
- That's all.
- Good Lord.
[water running]
[upbeat music playing faintly]
- You have 15 minutes.
- Until what?
Interview, Salazine, you're meeting?
Oh, no, it totally slipped my mind.
Just look at me.
I can't do the interview like this.
I'm screwed.
Take a couple of these
and you'll get over it.
And this brush
is for those dark circles.
Fast! Fifteen minutes!
Hey! Where's Roberta?
She took off!
She was saying
nobody wants her in the band.
[sighs heavily]
Right, um
we talked about that.
Things didn't work out with Roberta.
That's the way it is.
It happens sometimes.
And
I hesitated to tell you this, but
since we heard your voice today,
we all, uh
Everyone.
Everyone wants you in the band.
You just have to agree.
Let us know.
I grew up listening to all musical genres.
All of them.
But my biggest influence
is native Brazilian, traditional music.
The man who sings of his love,
who sings of his land, and of his people.
- I find it inspiring
- Yes, however,
the track you just released
isn't like that music at all.
No, actually, it is!
It's more like an homage
to that kind of music,
but adjusted to today's world
My dear, just a minute.
if you have to explain the
meaning of a song to someone,
it's because it never really took off.
I'm sure no one
knows more about music than you.
Yet you're here today interviewing me.
So my song must have taken off somehow
or else you wouldn't be here.
[chuckles]
Not everything has to be so deep,
music can be light.
It can be just for fun.
But if you don't like it,
that's all right.
I can't please everyone.
People have their own tastes.
This was just my first release.
It won't be my last.
Yeah. You're tough, I'll give you that.
Hmm.
Very good.
We'll just see how you do tonight.
Most importantly, I hope you have fun.
I am blown away!
I don't know if you
destroyed that guy or your career.
Either way, Deusa, you are insane.
I had an idea.
- But I'm going to need your help.
- Hmm?
[upbeat music playing]
There you are! You were gone so long!
I'm in the middle
of making a rubacão here,
which is actually Tereza's recipe.
I'm sure you're gonna like it.
I used to eat this
all the time when I was little.
I loved it.
There are different cheeses here,
and rice, and beans, all mixed together.
Mmm! Hope you're hungry! It's almost done.
- Eva.
- Hmm?
[voice breaking] I want you to go.
This is for real.
Roberta, Ana Lígia asked me to sing, but
It's not about
you taking my place in the band.
It's about
you being around me
and taking over my life.
What I feel in my heart isn't friendship.
I'm in love with you.
[crying softly]
I've been thinking a lot about it,
and as awful as it is
to force you to leave here,
I have no option.
The feeling's tearing me apart.
Maybe one day, after time has passed,
we'll be able to be friends.
Yeah.
Sure.
[Roberta crying softly]
[melancholy music playing]
[melancholy music continues]
[crying continues]
[mellow rock music playing]
[Rafael] You like it?
It's nice here.
Thanks.
It's temporary, though.
[chuckles] I lived in São Paulo
with my boyfriend until we broke up.
Then I came here to work for Marcolo,
and this was the first place I found.
So I kept it.
Looks like you survived the move.
[laughing]
Yeah, some adjustments
are more of a challenge.
Yeah.
[Nelton sighs heavily]
Want a mint?
I came to explain.
You don't have to.
But I want to.
I've wanted to try being with, um
[Rafael chuckles]
With
With other men?
I was always afraid to try it, though.
Afraid of my mother
and father not accepting it.
Afraid of hurting Luana.
But I think
mostly I was afraid I'd like it.
Silly fear, right?
- The beard feels weird.
- How weird?
[laughs] Like, prickly?
A bit.

- [Cesár in English] Enjoy yourselves.
- [upbeat music playing]
- Nice crowd.
- Yes.
And to rattle your nerves even more,
Salazine is here to judge.
I think he's looking to draw blood.
- [sighs] Deusa can't mess this up.
- No.
- I'm gonna remind her.
- Wait. Look.
Patrícia Ceará,
one of the investors at the gala.
You need to get her excited.
I'll check on Deusa.
All right.
[clears throat]
Patrícia!
What do you think?
[woman on phone] Sweetie,
you look like a movie star.
I sparkle! [laughs] It's a nice dress.
Is Tadeu there?
No, mom.
He
He stayed in Goiânia with the band.
[woman] Mmm.
I wish he cared a little more
about what's happening now in my life.
He just seems so indifferent.
Let me ask you something.
Can you live with
whatever he's willing to give you?
With or without him,
you're getting everything you ever wanted.
You don't need anyone, only yourself.
Remember who you are, it's important.
You may have wings now, sweetheart,
but no matter how high you fly,
you'll always have roots.
What the hell's going on here?
Where are all the musicians?
Calm down, César.
She's praying you'll trust her.
I'm here,
from the Northeast,
with a heavy accent.
The only misery I know
is a heart depleted of joy.
The only wealth I can promise
is to speak my truth
and sing my song.
I'm not of the land.
I carry it with me.

Hey.
What's goin' on?
Uh, I have no place to crash.
Well, you do now.
- [Tadeu] You want some water?
- Yeah, thanks.
Hey, I didn't mean to cause
any trouble between you and Roberta.
I'm afraid it was coming anyway.
And I think she needed some time.
- Can I leave my things here?
- Sure, make yourself at home.
Thanks.
Where is everyone?
They all found a good excuse
to vacate the premises and have fun
without me.
- [laughs]
- Well, then that makes two of us.
What about you and Valdo?
Well, I decided we both
needed to take a break.
Things were getting mixed up.
I didn't want that.
[Tadeu sighs] I hear you.
Deusa and I got things mixed up too.
Your house is beautiful!
It was my mom's.
What were you playing on the piano?
Nothing.
- I was just fiddling around.
- Fiddling?
Yeah, my mom, she loved this piano.
Ever since she died, I barely touch it.
Here, check this out.
[laughs] What is it?
All right, look.
You hold it up and point it to the light.
Like this? [gasps]
[Tadeu] You see it?
- [Eva] Is that her?
- Yeah.
Wow, she's really beautiful, Tadeu!
That photo was taken
when we met at the orphanage.
It was right in the middle of Carnival.
I remember
I was playing and she arrived
right out of the blue.
We both danced all afternoon.
[laughs softly]
- She always used to say
- [melancholy music playing softly]
that we chose each other.
That I was
her Carnival love.
I'm sorry.
It's not something I usually talk about.
It's fine. There's things
I don't usually talk about, either.
For instance, my father hates Carnival.
But it just so happens
he raised a daughter
who has always
been in love with the music.

[Cesár in English] Listen to what
that bastard Salazine wrote on Twitter,
"Deusa is an explosion
of sensations and feelings."
"Her musicality has
the flavor and rhythm of Brazil."
"It's not just a concert, it's
an experience."
[Deusa giggles]
"It's a complete tour de force."
And it's not just him who's saying this,
everyone is echoing the same thing.
They're crazy for you!
You keep getting more followers.
It worked.
It's happening.
You should learn to trust me from now on.
It's a deal, I'll begin tomorrow.
[Deusa laughing]
What is it?
I have to call Tadeu.
I'll tell you this, he's one lucky guy.
[phone vibrating]
[vibrating continues]
[vibrating continues]
[vibrating continues]
[melancholy music playing]
Deusa.
Tadeu.
[on phone] It was amazing, I wrote a song.
I sang it for you.
I really needed to hear your voice,
and to see you.
[sighs] Deusa, we need to have a talk.
[Deusa] I feel the same way.
[Tadeu sighs]
I was a jerk.
I should have gone.
We've been so distant.
It's as if
I don't recognize us anymore.
- [door closing]
- [Deusa] Me neither. Let's meet.
Why not now?
Let's take a trip. I'll rent a car.
[melancholy music continues]
Igarapava's halfway.
Igarapava.
[Ana] I'm glad you called, sweetheart.
Here you go.
Thanks for not asking questions.
Eat up.
It'll be good for you.
Wow!
This is amazing! What's in it?
It's a family secret.
I learned from my mother.
What's wrong?
I'm thinking about the person
who caused me to come here.
And if
it was worth all the trouble.
- [somber music playing faintly]
- Is it someone close?
I don't even know
how to describe this person.
It's so weird to say "my mother."
Because she isn't mine
or a mother.
She passed away?
No.
She's still alive.
My dad says their love
is what passed away.
And she
chose to end the marriage.
She never calls.
She might have forgotten me.
You don't ever forget your own child.
You think?
Sometimes we do things that aren't
obvious.
But they've been done for love.
[somber music continues]
Try not to judge her.
[laughs softly]
That's difficult for me.
If the invitation to the band
still remains open,
I'll do it.
But I have one condition.
Let's hear it.
When the band finally gets famous,
I want to record something for my mother.
Okay?
Okay, you got it.
It's a deal.
Good.
Eat everything in that bowl there.
You're way too skinny.

[bus approaching]
Sorry, sir.
Hate to intrude, but that's my seat.
[man] I'm getting off at the next stop.
I appreciate that, but I paid
for this spot. Here's my ticket.
It's easier to get off from here.
You can't just plop down
wherever you want!
Hey. You can sit here if you want.
Thanks.
Thank you.
I swear, if I ever become famous,
I'm gonna have a great,
big bus for myself.
I'll have my face on it.
Six-feet high on both sides.
You, um, play the accordion?
Mmm-hmm.
- It's not in your way, is it?
- No, you're good.
I'm scared to put this thing
in the baggage compartment.
There are some fiber cases
that would keep it protected really well.
- I know a guy who makes them.
- Oh, cool.
He's in Goiânia.
- Are you from there?
- Oh, yeah.
Born and raised.
You give off a country vibe.
[both chuckling]
Are you playing at the music festival
in Igarapava this week?
Uh, no, no, I have family there.
I didn't know there was a festival.
Oh, yeah! You should
definitely come and check it out.
It's not that kind of trip.
Good-looking guy like you
traveling all alone?
I figure someone broke your heart.
I'm going for my mother.
The old bridge across the Grande River?
- You know it?
- Mmm-hmm.
It was her favorite place.
I'm
going there to spread her ashes.
[Deusa gasps] I'm sorry.
- I've been going on and on
- No, no, no! It's fine!
I didn't realize you were grieving.
That's terrible. Please forgive me.
You made me laugh. I should thank you.
[sweet music playing]
It was nice to meet you.
[Tadeu] Look at that.
Not a bad setup.
Tadeu?
- What are you guys doing here?
- I can't believe this. Why that band?
Because they're amazing. Could that be it?
No. They're not as good without Deusa.
You know I'm right.
- They'll get better.
- [César scoffs]
We're in the middle of a financial crisis.
We have to be focusing on Deusa.
That's all.
Okay, we'll schedule
the studio around you then.
Oh, my God!
César, why can't you
admit you made a mistake?
You're rolling the dice on one person.
We can't wager everything on Deusa.
Move the band to a small label.
The investment is minimal,
but it could pay off, big time.
You know, it's funny.
You asked me for help to save the company
and I offered a plan.
You should open some Champagne.
This plan is a no-go.
'Cause Deusa has
a relationship with Tadeu.
You're going to disrupt my plans.
What do you mean, "your plans"?
How does their relationship
disrupt your plans?
Why didn't you say anything?
Well, it just happened last night.
You weren't even home.
You could have texted,
called, emailed, but you did nothing.
I know, Deusa, but this just
has to do with me and the band.
You think the band showing up at my office
is none of my business?
So this is your office?
It's a figure of speech.
Truth is, I'm happy for you.
I'm just surprised.
We can talk about this later, okay?
I have to leave on a trip today.
I have interviews, concerts in São Paulo.
Promotional stuff.
It'll be short, just three days.
São Paulo. Huh.
Apparently I'm not
the only one who has news.
- I'm not in charge of my life, Tadeu.
- That's pretty obvious.
Deusa, Tadeu.
Time to go.
[sighs heavily]
[Patrício] Wow, that's intense.
Yeah, apparently I don't even
know her anymore.
- No, I meant the coffee.
- Huh?
The coffee's strong.
[Eva] Looks like Deusa's
really gonna be famous, huh?
Yeah, from what I can tell,
César's serious here.
He's investing a big pile of cash.
Big time.
Ready for the studio?
- [Valdo] Oh, yeah!
- [Roberta] Let's do it.
- [Valdo] Let's go make some music.
- [Patrício] Yeah! I'm ready.
- Ana Lígia, where's the bathroom?
- Down the hall on the right.
- [Eva] I'll meet you over there.
- Good.
[intriguing music playing]
How did you get in here?
I'm with the band and Ana Lígia.
Wrong place.
I have nothing to do with that band.
Kriss!
Daniel Soh said some
great things about you.
You met?
Mmm-hmm.
He was going to record a song I wrote.
He talked to you about it
on the day of the accident.
- Remember?
- Of course! You're the writer!
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry. Forgive me.
Sit down, please.
What's your name?
Eva.
[César] Eva.
César. Hi.
- I know.
- [César laughs]
He was convinced
your song would be a big hit.
It will be.
Have you negotiated
the rights with anyone?
Um
I've had offers.
But you're here,
so you must have turned them down.
I want this song
to be heard all across the country,
so I'm only going to give it
to someone really big.
- Huge.
- Someone
like me?
- Yeah! That'd be good.
- Hmm.
Here.
I figure if
Deusa's career takes off,
then we can make a deal.

Cesár, you're paying to play the song?
I said I'd do whatever it took
to put you on top, didn't I?
Well
Well, how'd we do?
You're authentic, charismatic, different.
Man! That's hip, right?
- [groans] Patrício!
- [Valdo laughing] "Hip," yeah!
- What? What did I say?
- [Ana] Sure is, Patrício.
I think we have a chance
to do something new.
My job is to bring out
your natural talent.
But it begins with
your commitment to succeed.
After that, together,
we'll find the perfect song
to launch the band.
[Valdo] Cool!
I made a list of songs
for us to test to see what feels right.
I'm working on the bass.
Tomorrow we can get to work
and start recording the vocals.
- [Ana] Great.
- [Tadeu] Sounds perfect.
Wait, hang on.
Everybody's gonna sing?
- Of course!
- [Rafael] Uh-huh.
- Isn't the band supposed to be different?
- [Patrício clears throat]
Here are your sheets,
so you can start getting ready.
Appreciate it.
Ana Lígia, can I talk to you for a second?
[Ana] Sure, come on.
I'm not sure we should
kick Roberta out of the band.
- [Ana groans]
- Well, she just started with us.
Roberta's a good singer,
but she doesn't have
Eva's charisma presence.
I know that, but Eva says
she doesn't want to be a singer.
Keep in mind the girl is young.
A few days in the studio can change a lot.
That's why I invited her.
I guarantee you,
Eva is definitely the right choice.
[sighs] I don't know.
Trust me.
In the meantime, get closer to her,
get to know her better.
It's your band, Tadeu.
It's important that you believe in it.
She has technique and star quality.
When Deusa moved on, that's what you lost.
Do you ever wonder if you made
the right choice in betting on me?
Sure, yeah.
I know you'll be a big star.
I'm sure you must feel uncomfortable
with a few things, the blond wig,
the hours, the outfits, the, uh
- The dancing.
- [laughs] The dancing.
I just want you to know
I'm really trying to get it right.
I know it.
Well, one thing I'm sure about,
we really need to record some new songs.
Yeah, I agree with that.
Which reminds me,
there's a song Daniel was interested in,
and I've been thinking
that we should have you record it.
- What?
- Relax.
Excuse me,
a song meant for Daniel in my voice?
- Mmm-hmm.
- No way!
I have good news.
You have an interview
tomorrow at 10:00 with Salazine.
Wow, this guy must
be really important to you.
Look at you,
you're getting really nervous.
- I am not.
- Ha!
Ha.
I've always been a fan of Salazine,
but the jerk off has never published
anything positive about my work.
Now that he's written the article
about how I found you,
maybe things'll be different.

They're the only couple in here
not listening to the music.
They're not a couple, Tadeu.
- Oh, no?
- Mmm-mmm.
- It's a Tinder date. Just take a look.
- [laughs] What makes you so sure?
Watch.
He's pulling his shoulders
all the way back right now.
And there, she's trying to look smart,
but she's really nervous.
Look at how she keeps moving her straw.
Wow. Now you got me worried
you might be able to read my mind.
Be careful, I look nice,
but to tell you the truth, I'm dangerous.
You have a nice voice.
You're charismatic.
Ever wanted to perform?
- [phone ringing]

- Being a singer in public? In a band?

I gotta take this.

Listen, I had to move so fast,
I never said goodbye to anyone.
- What's all happening there?
- Oh, it's awesome.
Really, Ana Lígia's been so helpful.
[chuckles] The boys are in heaven.
[Deusa] Oh! That's cool.
I wish I could be there to see it.
[Tadeu chuckles] No, you don't.
Not with all you have to do.
Come on, you have a big show tomorrow.
Yeah, I know.
I should be happy at this point.
It's just I feel so lost.
There's gonna be important people
there tomorrow.
What if I fail?
Hey, you won't fail.
You're gonna be extraordinary.
Trust me, you're gonna
mesmerize that audience.
I wish I could be there to see it.
So do it! Yeah! I'll pay for you ticket.
It'll all be covered.
It's less than two hours on a plane.
I'll have a driver
pick you up at the airport.
[chuckles] Deusa, come on.
I wasn't serious. That'd be crazy.
Don't be so worried, Tadeu.
I want to do this, the money's nothing.
It's my treat.
It's not It's not the money.
The band has lots of things happening now.
I can't just go.
Come on, Tadeu, it's only for one day.
Can't you work it out?
If you don't wanna come in the morning,
you can just come at night.
The show's later, you'll be in and out.
You can go back to Goiânia in the morning,
you won't miss a thing.
You know something?
Ever since you left the band
I've been nervous that we
would never survive your absence.
But today's the first day
I believed we would.
It surprised me.
I'm not going to São Paulo.
Not because I can't, because I
I don't want to.
[somber music playing]
[upbeat music playing]
- Got any gluten-free ale?
- Yeah.
You can always make things
more boring, right?
[both chuckle]
- I'll bring it.
- Patrício talks a lot about you.
He told me your advice
helped get us back together
and I wanted to thank you for that.
No worries. I should thank you, really.
I own this joint and I do all right.
Without women like you,
I don't know where I'd be.
- [Sônia laughs nervously]
- [chuckling]
The change is for you, okay?
Here you go, handsome.
Hey. Why don't we get
something to eat back at the house?
I want to hang at the bar
with the band and Valdo.
With Valdo?
That's the way it is?
See you around, Eva.
Wait, I'm just keeping
[Valdo] What happened?
I guess she must be tired or
something.
Hold on a minute, Valdo.
Here's to all the free spirits,
which is us.
How about drinking to what
brought us together? To music!
- [Tadeu] Sounds good to me.
- To music and success!
- [Tadeu] To the band!
- [Ana] Yeah!
- [Tadeu] Look, you see that up there?
- [Deusa] What?
That star formation, that's Orion's Belt.
Oh, yeah? Sounds like you made that up.
No, seriously.
Those stars are all part of Orion's Belt.
- [Deusa] Uh-huh.
- The Southern Cross and the Three Sisters.
That's cool.
You're right. Does Goiás
have the most beautiful sky or what?
You haven't seen the stars in Paraíba.
There are all these stars. More, in fact.
Oh, yeah?
Sure. I saw them.
That's surprising, 'cause I can
see a star from Paraíba in front of me.
Sweet talker.
I can stop complimenting you. Just ask me.
No, you can keep going.
[somber music playing]
[Deusa laughs] Let me open it.
[Tadeu] Have a little patience.
I can do it.
Look, just push here.
- [Tadeu] No way.
- Way.
You always surprise me.
[Tadeu] Should we save the jar? It's cute.
Really? We have the same one already.
I know, but this one's bigger,
it'll hold more stuff.
We don't even have enough stuff
to fill up one of these things.

of your kisses in separate jars?

we'll need much more.

- Nelson.
You have a beautiful voice.
You're great.
Uh, I have a fiancé, you know.
I'm not the same as you.
Rafael.
Let's go somewhere else, okay?
All right?
Yeah, of course.
[downbeat music playing]
[Eva] Roberta, please wait!
You're overreacting! We were just playing!
- [scoffs] "Just playing"?
- Yeah!
You spent all day yesterday
saying the studio's fantastic.
That Ana Lígia's the coolest,
that Tadeu is awesome,
and Patrício is hilarious.
I got it, Eva.
They want you
and you obviously want it too.
You know that's crazy.
I would never do that to you.
No way.
I gotta go clear my head.
We'll talk it over later.
Deusa, are you awake in there?
[knocking continues]
Deusa!
[sighs]
Deusa!
- You look awful!
- Relax, I'll be fine.
- What happened here?
- I had trouble sleeping.
- That's all.
- Good Lord.
[water running]
[upbeat music playing faintly]
- You have 15 minutes.
- Until what?
Interview, Salazine, you're meeting?
Oh, no, it totally slipped my mind.
Just look at me.
I can't do the interview like this.
I'm screwed.
Take a couple of these
and you'll get over it.
And this brush
is for those dark circles.
Fast! Fifteen minutes!
Hey! Where's Roberta?
She took off!
She was saying
nobody wants her in the band.
[sighs heavily]
Right, um
we talked about that.
Things didn't work out with Roberta.
That's the way it is.
It happens sometimes.
And
I hesitated to tell you this, but
since we heard your voice today,
we all, uh
Everyone.
Everyone wants you in the band.
You just have to agree.
Let us know.
I grew up listening to all musical genres.
All of them.
But my biggest influence
is native Brazilian, traditional music.
The man who sings of his love,
who sings of his land, and of his people.
- I find it inspiring
- Yes, however,
the track you just released
isn't like that music at all.
No, actually, it is!
It's more like an homage
to that kind of music,
but adjusted to today's world
My dear, just a minute.
if you have to explain the
meaning of a song to someone,
it's because it never really took off.
I'm sure no one
knows more about music than you.
Yet you're here today interviewing me.
So my song must have taken off somehow
or else you wouldn't be here.
[chuckles]
Not everything has to be so deep,
music can be light.
It can be just for fun.
But if you don't like it,
that's all right.
I can't please everyone.
People have their own tastes.
This was just my first release.
It won't be my last.
Yeah. You're tough, I'll give you that.
Hmm.
Very good.
We'll just see how you do tonight.
Most importantly, I hope you have fun.
I am blown away!
I don't know if you
destroyed that guy or your career.
Either way, Deusa, you are insane.
I had an idea.
- But I'm going to need your help.
- Hmm?
[upbeat music playing]
There you are! You were gone so long!
I'm in the middle
of making a rubacão here,
which is actually Tereza's recipe.
I'm sure you're gonna like it.
I used to eat this
all the time when I was little.
I loved it.
There are different cheeses here,
and rice, and beans, all mixed together.
Mmm! Hope you're hungry! It's almost done.
- Eva.
- Hmm?
[voice breaking] I want you to go.
This is for real.
Roberta, Ana Lígia asked me to sing, but
It's not about
you taking my place in the band.
It's about
you being around me
and taking over my life.
What I feel in my heart isn't friendship.
I'm in love with you.
[crying softly]
I've been thinking a lot about it,
and as awful as it is
to force you to leave here,
I have no option.
The feeling's tearing me apart.
Maybe one day, after time has passed,
we'll be able to be friends.
Yeah.
Sure.
[Roberta crying softly]
[melancholy music playing]
[melancholy music continues]
[crying continues]
[mellow rock music playing]
[Rafael] You like it?
It's nice here.
Thanks.
It's temporary, though.
[chuckles] I lived in São Paulo
with my boyfriend until we broke up.
Then I came here to work for Marcolo,
and this was the first place I found.
So I kept it.
Looks like you survived the move.
[laughing]
Yeah, some adjustments
are more of a challenge.
Yeah.
[Nelton sighs heavily]
Want a mint?
I came to explain.
You don't have to.
But I want to.
I've wanted to try being with, um
[Rafael chuckles]
With
With other men?
I was always afraid to try it, though.
Afraid of my mother
and father not accepting it.
Afraid of hurting Luana.
But I think
mostly I was afraid I'd like it.
Silly fear, right?
- The beard feels weird.
- How weird?
[laughs] Like, prickly?
A bit.

- [Cesár in English] Enjoy yourselves.
- [upbeat music playing]
- Nice crowd.
- Yes.
And to rattle your nerves even more,
Salazine is here to judge.
I think he's looking to draw blood.
- [sighs] Deusa can't mess this up.
- No.
- I'm gonna remind her.
- Wait. Look.
Patrícia Ceará,
one of the investors at the gala.
You need to get her excited.
I'll check on Deusa.
All right.
[clears throat]
Patrícia!
What do you think?
[woman on phone] Sweetie,
you look like a movie star.
I sparkle! [laughs] It's a nice dress.
Is Tadeu there?
No, mom.
He
He stayed in Goiânia with the band.
[woman] Mmm.
I wish he cared a little more
about what's happening now in my life.
He just seems so indifferent.
Let me ask you something.
Can you live with
whatever he's willing to give you?
With or without him,
you're getting everything you ever wanted.
You don't need anyone, only yourself.
Remember who you are, it's important.
You may have wings now, sweetheart,
but no matter how high you fly,
you'll always have roots.
What the hell's going on here?
Where are all the musicians?
Calm down, César.
She's praying you'll trust her.
I'm here,
from the Northeast,
with a heavy accent.
The only misery I know
is a heart depleted of joy.
The only wealth I can promise
is to speak my truth
and sing my song.
I'm not of the land.
I carry it with me.

Hey.

Uh, I have no place to crash.
Well, you do now.
- [Tadeu] You want some water?
- Yeah, thanks.
Hey, I didn't mean to cause
any trouble between you and Roberta.
I'm afraid it was coming anyway.
And I think she needed some time.
- Can I leave my things here?
- Sure, make yourself at home.
Thanks.
Where is everyone?
They all found a good excuse
to vacate the premises and have fun
without me.
- [laughs]
- Well, then that makes two of us.
What about you and Valdo?
Well, I decided we both
needed to take a break.
Things were getting mixed up.
I didn't want that.
[Tadeu sighs] I hear you.
Deusa and I got things mixed up too.
Your house is beautiful!
It was my mom's.
What were you playing on the piano?
Nothing.
- I was just fiddling around.
- Fiddling?
Yeah, my mom, she loved this piano.
Ever since she died, I barely touch it.
Here, check this out.
[laughs] What is it?
All right, look.
You hold it up and point it to the light.
Like this? [gasps]
[Tadeu] You see it?
- [Eva] Is that her?
- Yeah.
Wow, she's really beautiful, Tadeu!
That photo was taken
when we met at the orphanage.
It was right in the middle of Carnival.
I remember
I was playing and she arrived
right out of the blue.
We both danced all afternoon.
[laughs softly]
- She always used to say
- [melancholy music playing softly]
that we chose each other.
That I was
her Carnival love.
I'm sorry.
It's not something I usually talk about.
It's fine. There's things
I don't usually talk about, either.
For instance, my father hates Carnival.
But it just so happens
he raised a daughter
who has always
been in love with the music.

[Cesár in English] Listen to what
that bastard Salazine wrote on Twitter,
"Deusa is an explosion
of sensations and feelings."
"Her musicality has
the flavor and rhythm of Brazil."
"It's not just a concert, it's
an experience."
[Deusa giggles]
"It's a complete tour de force."
And it's not just him who's saying this,
everyone is echoing the same thing.
They're crazy for you!
You keep getting more followers.
It worked.
It's happening.
You should learn to trust me from now on.
It's a deal, I'll begin tomorrow.
[Deusa laughing]
What is it?
I have to call Tadeu.
I'll tell you this, he's one lucky guy.
[phone vibrating]
[vibrating continues]
[vibrating continues]
[vibrating continues]
[melancholy music playing]
Deusa.
Tadeu.
[on phone] It was amazing, I wrote a song.
I sang it for you.
I really needed to hear your voice,
and to see you.
[sighs] Deusa, we need to have a talk.
[Deusa] I feel the same way.
[Tadeu sighs]
I was a jerk.
I should have gone.
We've been so distant.
It's as if
I don't recognize us anymore.
- [door closing]
- [Deusa] Me neither. Let's meet.
Why not now?
Let's take a trip. I'll rent a car.
[melancholy music continues]
Igarapava's halfway.
Igarapava.
[Ana] I'm glad you called, sweetheart.
Here you go.
Thanks for not asking questions.
Eat up.
It'll be good for you.
Wow!
This is amazing! What's in it?
It's a family secret.
I learned from my mother.
What's wrong?
I'm thinking about the person
who caused me to come here.
And if
it was worth all the trouble.
- [somber music playing faintly]
- Is it someone close?
I don't even know
how to describe this person.
It's so weird to say "my mother."
Because she isn't mine
or a mother.
She passed away?
No.
She's still alive.
My dad says their love
is what passed away.
And she
chose to end the marriage.
She never calls.
She might have forgotten me.
You don't ever forget your own child.
You think?
Sometimes we do things that aren't
obvious.
But they've been done for love.
[somber music continues]
Try not to judge her.
[laughs softly]
That's difficult for me.
If the invitation to the band
still remains open,
I'll do it.
But I have one condition.
Let's hear it.
When the band finally gets famous,
I want to record something for my mother.
Okay?
Okay, you got it.
It's a deal.
Good.
Eat everything in that bowl there.
You're way too skinny.
