Love Is Blind: Brazil (2021–…): Season 2, Episode 11 - The Reunion - full transcript

A NETFLIX SERIES

The second season of Love Is Blind: Brazil

also has a special reunion episode.

I was real the whole time.

You were fake.

You laugh at
what people say about me online.

-You need to stop for a minute.
-Okay.

Jerk.

Why would you embarrass her like that?

Women are finally appreciating themselves.

I felt doubly betrayed by you.



I'm so mad at myself.

Nowadays, guys want their parents
to make the decisions.

I was confused.

You didn't want
to do more harm in the future.

Even though Maura was nasty to me,
I'd like to thank her.

It's your last chance
to say what was left unsaid.

Anyone there?

I understand perfectly
everything you're feeling.

I don't want to hear that anymore.

You're fake.

-Okay.
-You're manipulative and crooked.

I'm not scared to say it. I love you.

LOVE IS BLIND: BRAZIL
THE REUNION

Welcome, everyone,



to Love Is Blind: Brazil
Season 2: The Reunion.

Everyone is curious to know

how the lives of Brazil's favorite
experiment participants are going.

So, let's start.

Here are the rings.

If you put them on,
that means you're still together.

If you don't put them on,
that means you've gone separate ways.

Let's start with Alisson and Thamara.

You can stand.

Tell me,

is everything the same?

Or was there
a surprise after the experiment?

It's the same.

-My little lovebirds.
-My couple!

So please, give her a ring.

Now, Thamara.

-Now kiss.
-Come on, guys!

Okay, we'll have to kiss too.

All right. That's enough.

I think we'll call the other couple
who said yes at the altar.

Flávia.

Robert. Come here.

We, and all of Brazil,

would like to know
how you've been since the experiment.

Are you still together?

Or did you end up breaking up?

We broke up.

So we have a lot to talk about.

I'm okay, girl.

I'm okay.

Now we want to know
about the participants that said no.

How are you? Are you single?

Are you married?

Are you dating?

We want to hear from you.

-We'll start with Maíra.
-Okay.

I'm dating.

Right after I left the experiment,
someone incredible came into my life.

How funny. I tried it blind,
but it happened in plain sight.

And you, Gui?

I'm seeing someone.

-Will?
-I'm single.

I'm giving priority to other situations.

I want to stay single for a while.

Verônica?

-I'm dating.
-You are?

Yeah.

A damn fine Black man.

Do your bun.

My bun.

Anyway.

-You, Vanessa?
-I'm single.

Hooking up a lot.

All jokes aside, I'm single

until I find someone who deserves me.

It will happen.

And you, Tiago?

I'm single.

-I'm free. Yeah.
-Single?

A man of few words.

-Yeah.
-Always.

Let's go down memory lane.

Brazil wants to relive
its favorite memories

from the show.

Let's start with our couple,
Thamara and Alisson.

I'm already getting hot.

-Wanna gossip?
-Please, the gossiping couple!

Let's see the gossip.

I want a loud hello!

Wow, you're so chipper!

I'm Alisson da Silva Hentges.

I have a strong, solid idea of who I want

and what I want in life.

I'm Thamara. I'm 30.

I'm a lawyer,

and I live in Rio de Janeiro.

-Will you take me to the club?
-We can make the club at home.

Wow, I love that idea.

Thamara's a player.

We're here. We judge.

I don't get it. Why say that?

Then stay over there.
I'm talking to my bros.

There's no point.

I thought he was really disrespectful.

I thought you were
going to say the same thing.

Never.

Thamara Térez,

will you marry me?

This isn't a joke?

No, I'm serious.

I'm on my knees.

I will. Of course I will.

Come here.

It's you. It had to be you.

There are no words for what I felt.

I love you.

I love you.

I'm really happy.

I'm really excited.
Yes, I'm really in love.

Let's see if we get along living together.

I thought I was ready,
but now I'm feeling a little weird.

Why?

When I got my phone
and opened my messages,

I found countless messages

from my ex.

Aside from living together, which is hard,
she's got an ex chasing her.

I can't stop laughing.

I can't stop crying!

I want to know,

is Thamara the person
you choose to share a life with?

-Yes.
-Let's do this.

We have some things to clear up, don't we?

We're so different.

That was a great speech.

-Fucking great.
-Great for who?

-I almost died.
-Heartbreakingly good.

You're crazy if you didn't
break your TV at that.

…at this point in my life.

But crazy is exactly what I want.

You're trying to kill me.

Oh, my God, Thamara.

Our couple.

Congrats.

Reliving it is making Alisson emotional.

How has it been since?

So, I moved to Rio de Janeiro.

There have been a lot of struggles.

We work on it every day.

I had a sense of what was to come.

There are cultural differences
and differences in upbringing.

We're really so different.

It was hard at first.

It would have been easier
to give up and go our separate ways,

but we wanted to make it happen.

Alisson, do you think that moment
in the men's lounge with the guys…

We can say it was sexist.

No question.

They were judging Thamara.

How did you handle that?

First off, I didn't agree with people

who talked about their conversations.

You're looking for a wife.

Why would you
embarrass her in front of others?

When you're getting to know someone,

you talk about your personality,

and you tell everyone the same thing.

You won't be different with everyone,
because you don't know them.

It was important
that she made things clear to everyone.

If she was being unfairly judged,

it was up to me to defend her.

-That's how I felt.
-He earned some points?

All of them.

This whole thing with your ex,

during the experiment,
and even now that it's over…

Did you think it could
damage your relationship with Alisson?

I didn't think it would get in the way,

because I don't think

Alisson cares about
what other people think.

I made sure to make it
very clear how everything happened,

how I arrived at the experiment.

I left no doubt that he would
know everything that happened.

-I made everything clear.
-Yeah.

Now tell me,

do you believe that you two

would have fallen in love
if you had met outside of the experiment?

If it weren't for the experiment…

Aside from the fact
that we wouldn't have met,

we never would have connected.

We would have used those

initial filters

that we all use
in life outside of the experiment.

Great.

Now let's go to Tiago and Vanessa's clip.

Let's review a bit of your story.

My name is Vanessa Carvalho.

A lot of men misjudge me

based on my looks, because I'm voluptuous.

They think I'm shallow.

I'm Tiago. I love my family.

I'm affectionate with my parents,
and I came here to find you.

You're a charmer!

Wow, your voice is amazing.
I love listening to you.

-Seriously.
-What a line!

-How many women have you used it on?
-I'm glad we're talking again.

You've said that to others.

You think I'd cry over anyone?

Who cares?

I won't crawl after a man.
I don't need that.

Fight for me.

Show me you want it.

If I tell Nina I'm not interested…

Then it's a deal.

I was being too rational,

but my heart says otherwise.

He played the game well.

He was strategic enough
to get where he wanted.

You're a player.

It's never easy to be told no.

I'm in love with you.

-Vanessa Carvalho Soares.
-Oh, my…

Will you marry me?

Yes, my love. A thousand times, yes.

This is crazy.

Thank you, God.

What is in store for me?

She's more outgoing. I'm more reserved.

She's always recording herself dancing
or whatever.

Look how excited he is!

What is outgoing to you? Joking around?

You wanting to be the center of attention.

It's not attractive.

It's weird to date someone you don't like.

No.

Yeah.

Is Vanessa the person

you want to share your life with?

No.

It's not Vanessa.

But I ask myself,

where is the man from the pods?

I wasn't wrong to love,

but to love the wrong person.

Someone who had doubts.

And I deserve someone who is sure.

We fall so much in love

that it blinds us.

But eventually we figure it out.

So, Tiago, after watching
the clip of your story--

What do you have to say?

I still think Vanessa is
an amazing woman and incredible person.

I think that's exactly
what living together was for.

For us to see
if we have more in common or not.

At no point

did I assure her
that I had decided to get married.

Nor did I say I wouldn't.

There are moments, looking back,

where I don't agree with how I acted.

For example?

When I said, "So what?"

The way I said it.

Vanessa doesn't deserve
someone rude by her side.

And that's not me.

I'm a lot more than what was shown.
Those who know me know that.

I had amazing experiences with Vanessa.

But unfortunately it didn't work out.
It didn't happen.

I've been holding in
a lot of things I'd like to say now.

I agree with you that we're different.

Because I was real the whole time,

and you were fake.

It's even clearer than I imagined

that he was playing mind games
with me and Nina.

He played us.

He told both of us we were his number one,

that he was in love with us.

We're not pawns for you to play with.

Did you stop talking to other guys?
Didn't we decide we'd be together?

No. It wasn't 100% decided.

-You hadn't ditched Nina.
-I had.

You hadn't ditched her.

-Then why were you crying?
-You said it was me.

You told me it was me.
You told me it was my fault.

-Why did you cry?
-You twisted it around.

I was crying because you didn't like
that I was talking to other people.

-You wanted to break up.
-No way.

-I was talking to others too.
-You're contradicting yourself.

That would have been unfair.

I said I was worried,
because we had a deal.

You made it clear there, Tiago.

Aside from that,

in the pods he claimed…
and showed himself… to be a nice,

romantic, sensitive guy.

And he insisted
that he was committed to making it work.

None of that was true
when we lived together.

He never did anything romantic for me.

Nor did he ever say he liked me.

As for being committed
to making it work, I never saw that.

Why did you fall in love with me more
living together than in the pods?

I was in love with you since--

Why did you send me
a video of moments of us together

two days before our wedding?

That's contradictory.

I did fall in love in the pods.

Then it became very clear
that you weren't that person,

but I wanted to believe it.

That's why I fought until the end,
until I was sure you weren't.

I wasn't horrible to you. You know that.

-But you want--
-Just fake.

Tiago, we had a deal to say yes.

Then, Will said no to Verônica.

The next day, Tiago changed his mind,

as if he was relieved
he didn't have to pretend anymore.

It was cold and calculated.

When he said you were too outgoing
and liked to be the center of attention.

How did you handle that?

It made me really sad, because I never
want to be the center of attention.

It shows me that he's insecure.

When a woman shines on her own,

when she has her own wants and desires,

it scares him.

I also think it is latent misogyny
that women can't be who they want.

When I said she was too outgoing,

she had asked me
if I thought there was anything

that could damage our relationship.

So I said that we were different.

I was always honest.

Do you think I need
to be the center of attention?

When?

-I don't think that.
-Then why did you say it?

Vanessa.

-What you asked me was--
-You said it clearly.

-"You like being the center of attention."
-Okay. I'm sorry.

But that never bothered me.

Her videos never bothered me.

So much so that I recorded them.
It didn't bother me.

-Recorded and loved it.
-It's something she does for work.

I even say in the clip
that maybe I should be more like that.

I have no issue with us being different.
No two people are equal.

It's fine that we're different,
but that's your reason for saying no.

Which is it?

Do you know what
our biggest difference is, Vanessa?

I noticed it after the show.

-I noticed that I'm rooting for you.
-You noticed afterwards?

I wish you the best, not the worst.

-I don't wish you ill.
-You want to attack me.

You laugh at
what people say about me online.

-I wish you the best.
-I don't laugh at you.

-Yes, you do.
-Don't paint me guilty and you innocent.

-You manipulate people.
-Not at all.

Okay, let's move on.

We have a lot to talk about today.

Let's go to our next clip.

I'm sure everyone will be moved.
It's William and Verônica's clip.

Hi, I'm Will.

Nice to meet you. I'm Verônica Brito.

I'm an empowered, confident woman.

This is what I am.
I'm spontaneous, a joker.

I don't need to make it up.

I'm close with my family.
My mom is my best friend.

What would you do
if your family rejected me?

It's my life and my decision.

I pay my own bills,
so I'm the one who calls the shots.

I'm very ready to make this happen.
Got it, gorgeous?

I got it.

Gorgeous.

I'm falling for him more every day.

Verônica Mara Santos de Brito.

Hey, babe.

Will you marry me?

Oh, my heart! Of course I will.

I will. Yes, I will marry you, man.

I think I'm nervous.

Oh, my God.

You're so beautiful.

She's bald, man.

That girl is awesome.

He's beautiful. He's perfect.

It's on. Now I know it's on.

Honeymoon, here we come.

I think there's still a lot
for us to discover about each other.

But up until now, it's been…

I've been thinking a lot
about whether to say yes or no.

This is scary.

-The speed of things makes me nervous.
-Exactly.

I know that you don't want me
to get married. Everyone knows.

Firstly, I can't say no
because I don't want to.

Okay?

The second reason I won't say no,

is that, up until now,
she's been really great to me.

Everything is beautiful
and feels good, you know?

-I know.
-But the real world is different.

-I know.
-I've told you.

If you show up there and say no,
everyone will have to accept it.

It's your life.

Do you take Will

to be your partner for life?

Yes.

My queen,

I'm not ready to have you by my side.

I'm not ready for this.

That's the best thing you've ever done.

-That's right.
-Thank God.

He was totally irresponsible.

And weak.

What happened?

What changed

in such a short period,
on your wedding day, to make you say no?

I have nothing to say about Verônica,
except that she's amazing.

You know you are.

I really think I made a mistake,

just like she said.

I wasn't being a man. I was weak.

But, I remember it like it was yesterday.

When we got to the apartment,

we discussed some things.

One of those things
was that I was confused.

We had two more conversations about it,

once was two days before the wedding.

The cameras were not present.

We always preferred it that way.

Maybe that was another mistake on my part.

But she always looked on the bright side.

"I think you need to try."

"Let yourself do this."

It was implied that I would try.

And I agreed.

-You showed up saying yes.
-Yes.

-Even at lunch you were saying yes.
-I agreed.

When we talked about it,
I agreed with her.

I said, "You're right.
Let's let it happen."

I'll admit, my mom was the last straw.

Clearly, she influenced me.

I also analyzed other opinions.

She's a bald, dark-skinned Black woman.

Is it okay

for me to say yes,

look all cute for the public,

only to later say, "Have a nice life"?

I preferred to say no,
because I didn't feel ready.

Regardless of this narrative you've got,

I still think you're a huge coward,

a pushover,

a mama's boy.

You're out here saying you worry about me
as a bald, dark-skinned Black woman.

You sure weren't worried
when you did what you did to me.

When you embarrassed me at that altar.

When you said, "Oh, we talked
two days before the wedding."

We did talk and you said what?

"Verônica, I'm confused.
Blah, blah, blah."

I always encouraged and uplifted you.

-I did that a lot.
-You did that a lot.

You always lifted me up.

This isn't a narrative.
I'm telling the truth.

Fine. Hold on.

-No. I won't.
-No.

-It's valid to tell the truth.
-I listened to you.

I listened to you. Now you wait.

Okay.

Just wait a little.

I know manners are hard
because of your upbringing.

We know. Everyone saw, okay?

So, anyway.

What did you tell me?

"It's time for me to be a man. Thank you."

You hugged me, and I supported you.

Then what did you do?

You threw it all away.

Up there, you showed me

how much of an immature and irresponsible

jerk you really are.

That really is the word.

Jerk.

That morning you told me,
"See you at the altar. See you soon."

"Bye."

Then you have the courage to say,

"Not today, my queen"?

You're nuts.

I gave it my all.

I was living… being totally transparent.

-I was transparent with you.
-No.

How was I not?

I told you every time that I was confused.

We talked four times.

Every time, said you were confused,
then you'd say, "I'm with you."

-"I'm with you."
-You're not wrong.

-I feel you. You talked.
-There's no problem--

Please, let me talk.

-I feel you.
-I'm not listening to this.

You're not wrong. And that's fine.

I really am a mama's boy.

Thank God I am.

I have a mom. Some don't.

I wronged you. I admit that.

I have no problem admitting that.

But life went on.

Now you're with someone else.
I'm really happy for you.

I can't do anything else.

I don't want you to.

I would rather not
be breathing the same air as you--

-So get up and leave.
-I'd like to, but I have truths to tell.

Fine, then!

So, I really thought we had…

when it was just us,

with no interference…

a partnership.

Then came the interference,
which was his mom…

Ever since she was rude at dinner,

ever since he got quiet that time,

I'm sure she was telling you
things that you didn't share.

I always shared
everything with you, Verônica.

I don't think that I'm guilty.

The issue isn't what you said.
That's your choice.

-My mistake was how I did it.
-It's the way you said it.

I could have been clearer.

Thank you, Will and Verônica. Thank you.

Let's move on to Gui and Maíra.

Let's watch.

I'm really outgoing,

so I'd love to find a woman
who's as outgoing as I am.

I'm really outgoing,

and all of a sudden
the guy's calling me "bro."

Maíra, I'll call you Mai.

-Okay. You can call me babe, too.
-Babe!

I've been single for three years.

That whole time, my love life
has been a circus, with me as the clown.

My fear going into this

was that I'd fall in love with someone,
then have to go home and get over them.

If I'm here,
it means I have my life together.

I really want him to come to me,
knowing exactly what he wants.

I chose to love you.

Will you marry me?

I would have said yes
on the third day, Gui.

My God. Grab me and never let go.

We're gonna spread our wings and fly away.

Whatever it is, we'll make it happen.

You'll meet father-in-law,
mother-in-law, and son.

Do you think we need to rush into this?

We can't leave that for later?

When is later? Our wedding is in 30 days.

Seeing that he's kind of backing out

makes me worried.

I have feelings for you,
and I'm scared I'll get hurt.

I feel like you came here ready to say no.

I think when we make up alternatives,
we end up mixing everything up.

But, dude, it's all on me.

It's all ups and downs.

-It's always zero to 60.
-One day it's no.

The next day you tell me
that living together is great,

that it cleared things up.

Then I get my hopes up.

I told you I needed time to understand
our chemistry and connection.

I don't think we need
to say, "No, see you later."

I feel like you toyed with me,
and that you're emotionally immature.

Every time I encouraged you
to do something, you gave up.

The thing I should
have given up on was us.

At that point, I just wanted to leave.

My heart is at ease.

I know this proves
that I made the right choice.

I'm leaving here

completely destroyed inside.

But I feel light.
I went as far as I could.

Maybe our happy ending

is just moving on.

Crazy.

Many doubts about many things.

I think you two are the couple
we have the most questions for.

I'll start with something objective
that I think Maíra brought up a few times,

which is that the signs were there,

and you didn't want to see them.

What signs?

I don't know if Guilherme
was himself in front of the cameras.

To me, Guilherme was always chaos.

I had to constantly grapple with,

"Yes. Now no."

"Now yes. Now no."

I think what screwed it all up

was when everything was fine between us.

Guilherme came back
from an appointment with his therapist.

We're talking, and he says,

"I'm not attracted to you sexually."

That's the worst thing
a man has ever said to me.

Given that, the next day
I went to him and said,

"I can't go on after that. I just can't."

You often talked away from the cameras?

Always off-camera.

-I wanted to protect him.
-Do you agree?

We talked a lot off-camera.

Every time Maíra
brought something up to you, like,

"Why don't we just end this here?
Why don't we stop doing this?"

You insisted on walking down the aisle.

-What did you expect to say up there?
-Right.

In the pods, we talked a lot
about not giving up on each other.

We promised
that we would try until the last day.

I made that promise,
so I wanted to go all the way.

I betrayed myself
by trying to keep a promise

where I wasn't being real
or truthful with myself.

You didn't feel the passion, you--

Dude, I was trying to find it,
to find that connection.

I was trying to find
that connection we had in the pods.

I was trying to find the passion.

-I was looking for that connection.
-And lust?

-I was trying to find the connection.
-What you said was heavy.

He wouldn't let me get near him.

I think he had personal issues.

-Like I said, there were signs.
-You had to have had them from before.

What I apologize for
is having taken this to the end.

I'm sorry for making you hurt like that.

For making you feel those bad things.

For making you feel bad
about being with me, you know?

I failed by trying to do it right.

As a host, there was one thing

I didn't get, and I really want
to give you the chance to do it again.

It was when you had
the chance to meet her father

and to ask for her hand in marriage,

and you told him
the show isn't about marriage!

I was talking to a man
from another generation.

He's a serious, well-read man,
and he doesn't believe in this.

He turned to me
and said we were living a circus.

-That we were clowns.
-I remember.

What I wanted him to get…

I said, "We're not going
to get married at all costs."

-I agree.
-"This is about a marriage."

"It's not a circus, it's a marriage.
I'm taking everything into consideration."

Just to wrap this up,
I'd like to hear your assessment.

Are you less confused now? Did you learn
that confusion leads to more confusion?

-Have you worked anything out?
-It hurts to see you both hurting.

No question, this changed
my perspective on relationships,

on human behavior.

I even got to start a new relationship,
so I'm experiencing my new maturity.

-You, Maíra?
-Look.

I just want to say

that it hurt to leave the show
and learn from Robert and Flávia

that the girl I caught messaging him

was someone he was--

Wait, Maíra. You're bringing up
a third party who can't defend themselves.

-But it affected our relationship.
-It's not fair.

-No.
-They should know.

-Their name won't be disclosed. It's fair.
-Wait. It won't be disclosed.

-I was in a relationship--
-Only talk about the show.

-Of course. Okay, honey.
-Don't talk about outside. That's my life.

But it was during the show.

Hang on. How can you say it doesn't count?

It happened during the show.

What happened during the show?

I saw you looking at her Instagram.

I knew immediately.

You left the show
and were with her in Curitiba, dude.

She's talking about my girlfriend.

I didn't mention that.

I don't want to expose
another woman because of a man.

-My only issue is with you.
-Right.

I put you on a pedestal.
I thought you were incredible.

But above all,
I thought you were my friend.

I thought we were friends.

To leave here,
and realize I went through all that

just for you to have someone else.

If you had told me, I would have said,

"Look, that clears
everything up in my head."

Because, until then,
you made me think I was the problem.

Let's go to a couple who said yes.

Let's watch it, Robert and Flávia.

I'll have this experience
the rest of my life.

Now it's on. Now it's really on.

What's up?

They made me wait to come in.
They'll hear about it.

I value every second with you.

How cute!

I'm Robert Richard.
I'm a personal trainer.

I'm Flávia. I'm a nurse and body piercer.

I came here thinking I was cold.

Am I a good person to others?

I'm going to be honest.

You don't seem interested.

It seems like Robert

doesn't commit.

That makes me
insecure about our connection.

I've had lots of bad relationships.

I don't want
to go through that ever again.

Just because I'm cold,
it doesn't mean I don't commit.

I see myself with you, moving forward.

I'm nervous.

I'm wondering if I'm really
strong enough and brave enough

to ask this man to marry me.

Will you be my husband?

I accept, and I think about
being with you every day.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God!

There's nothing better.

My worry for the honeymoon
is if we'll connect physically.

Please God, go to bed.

What everyone
thought would happen, did not.

Don't hold back!

I'm not holding back.

It was all very real and true.

We're about to move to the apartment.
That's the biggest challenge.

We really believe in you guys.

Should we play
"Never Have I Ever"?

That was my idea? What a bad idea.

-You kissed five people at a party?
-More.

Holy shit!

I think it was more than 13.

I like 13 for a number.

Many revelations.

-I've never had sex in my parents' bed.
-That's all I do.

Flávia let loose. It scared Robert.

-It's easy to date a saint.
-Here it comes.

Dating a woman of this caliber
will show us if you're really a man.

I think we built

a great partnership and companionship.

Do you take Robert
to share your life by his side?

I do.

And you, Robert?

I'm ready to give myself to you,
and to be the happiest man alive.

It was beautiful.

-What happened?
-What happened?

I think anyone in this situation…

would make excuses.

I don't have one.

I wronged an amazing woman.

I regret it still, every day.

I was holding my phone,

and I got a message from a dating app.

I was in shock.

She said, "Let me see."

There were two conversations.

One from three weeks before,
saying, "How are you?"

And I said, "Better now."

The other conversation
was about bars we had both been to or not.

Did you just message them,

or did you meet?

Was there physical cheating?

I went to delete the app from my phone,

and it asks if you want

to delete the app
or remove it from the home screen.

I only deleted it from the home screen.

One day,
I got that message from that person.

And I responded.

And it happened again a second time.

That's what happened.

I felt doubly betrayed by you.

First, because you deleted the app
in front of me when we lived together.

-Yes. Exactly.
-And I did the same.

The other thing
was that it happened three weeks before.

We had already been married a while.

We'd traveled together.

Another thing,

when I confronted you,

you said you had also
flirted in person at a few parties

here in São Paulo.

We were in a long-distance relationship.

I was in Minas Gerais.
I knew I would have to move here.

I moved to São Paulo.

I'm in São Paulo now, thinking about
building and continuing our relationship.

During our time together,

I never heard him
express any admiration for me.

-That's true.
-That was before this came to light.

After it did, I lost count
of how many loving messages he sent.

That was a big shock for me,

because he discovered his love
very late in the game.

-It was late.
-So it had another significance.

When I was there with her,

I was more involved than I knew.

I didn't know.

Everyone saw that I was
really serious, centered.

I rarely told her
how much I loved and admired her,

because I am… I realized I'm really scared
of dating and of opening myself up.

I'm really scared
I won't be able to love anyone again.

I was scared
to give myself fully over to Flávia.

And…

I'm scared I won't ever
be able to show her who I really am.

I hate that I don't like her,

I love her.

But at the same time,
I can't show her that 100%.

I'm so mad at myself.

I'm ashamed of what I did.

It was a mistake, and I have no excuse.

I can only grieve
the woman I had beside me.

I think I spent a lot of my life

feeling bad about myself.

Seeing myself from the outside
allowed me to accept myself.

-If I cry I won't be able to talk.
-Cry. Let it out.

You aren't the worst person ever
because you messed up.

We all mess up and will again.

You could be the best person in the world,

you will mess up.

The question is
what boundaries a person establishes.

In our first heart-to-heart,
I told you I was cheated on,

that I forgave them, and that
our relationship made me insecure.

Going through that again
made me really angry at first.

I wondered what was wrong with me.

How did I contribute to this?

But then I realized I have nothing to do
with other people's mistakes or successes.

It might take one day,

one year,

or maybe even ten years.

But I told her that I'd win her back.

I think it's obvious

how potent this experiment is.

It's intense, it's real.

No one doubts that.

Everyone here put their hearts,

their bodies,
and their souls into this experiment.

On the second season of Love Is Blind,

a few moms and dads
caught the public's attention.

So let's review how those parents

reacted to their children participating

in such an unusual experiment.

Hi!

I always asked God
to bring someone into her life

who really loved her.

One day she meets a guy,
the next she's engaged?

It's weird.

-Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.

He's beautiful!

If I were her, I'd marry him.

My impression

is that it's a big circus.

I said, "How does this work?"

"This isn't a joke."

"This is serious."

"Marriage is serious."

What did you think of Verônica?

She's crazy, right?

We'll know with time.

So, welcome, Maura, Nivia, and Wanderlei.

Look, the first question I want to ask

is what did you think

when you found out that your children
were participating in this experiment?

Who wants to speak?

Can I?

-Of course!
-You even sighed, like…

THAMARA'S DAD

I'm against all reality TV.

I don't like it,
and would never invite anyone to watch it.

-That's okay.
-But my daughter is in this one.

Did you watch it?

Every episode. I bawled.

-And now you like reality TV more.
-I like this one.

-You like this one.
-Because of my daughter.

And my handsome son-in-law.

Right?

What about you two? Maura?

-Nivia?
-Nivia?

I was a little bit confused.

WILLIAM'S MOM

So much so that when my son told me,
I didn't want him to do it.

But it's like I always say,

there's nothing I won't do for my kids.

What about you, Nivia?

When she told me, I really supported it…

FLÁVIA'S MOM

…because I knew she wanted to do it.

I knew it interested her.

Were you surprised?

I went, "I don't believe this!"

How do you feel

now that everything has happened,

and they're not together?

That's life, you know?

It makes you sad
because it's not what you wanted.

Seeing her sad made me sad, you know?

Do you want to talk?

I'm really--

Nivia is here.

I'm really sensitive these days.

I never got in touch with you
because I was ashamed of what I did.

-I understand.
-So…

Once again, I apologize a million times,

because you welcomed me.

You said I was like a son to you.

And I let you down.

On my part, there's no problem.

I forgive you a million times.

You didn't even need
to ask my forgiveness.

Unfortunately, this happened.

Humans make mistakes, you know?

It was bad because, unfortunately,
you violated Flávia's trust.

I don't meddle in Flávia's choices.

I think only time will teach us
how to grow into better people, right?

I know I still want
to get married and start a family,

and I won't be to do that if I continue
to be the person I was with her.

That's why I'm asking
for your forgiveness,

and for Flávia's once again.

And my heart is still open,
if she wants it again someday.

Yeah.

But it's not easy.

That's heartbreaking.

-My heart is broken.
-We're heartbroken.

You changed my life, okay?

You changed your life.

No. You changed my life.

You helped me see things
I never thought I'd see again.

I'm sorry again, Nivia.

-Thanks, Robert.
-Look, I forgive you.

Maura.

A question for you.

Were you against

the experiment,

Love Is Blind,

or against your son
getting married at this point in his life?

It was a beautiful experience.

In the episodes, he was a lord.

William has his own opinions.

When he wants something,

he goes beyond, he fights for it.

He said he was going to get married.

But what I always told him

was that he wasn't ready.

Take what Robert said.

He loves Flávia.

William

didn't love her.

Did he really say that?

Did he say he didn't love Verônica?

I sensed it.

He didn't tell me that.

But his choice to say no

wasn't my doing.

He wanted to say no.

But that's why my son

is weak…

isn't sensitive.

He's human.

It's not just the people
who get married who are right.

What hurt her
wasn't the fact that he said no.

I think it was the way he went about it.

And I think what shocked us

was how quickly… it was
just a few minutes… he changed his mind.

Then after the wedding,
in your interview, you said,

-"Did I influence him? Absolutely."
-"Absolutely."

Absolutely.

What did I want him to see?

Is this what he really wanted?

The daily reality on the outside,

it's completely different.

Are you ready for that?

Where will you live?

How will that look?

When she said

if she influenced me,

absolutely.

I think that's what she meant.

The final outcome
was a culmination, right?

We had a good run.

But I weighed my options.

In the words of my mother,
"You give what you can."

And even though Maura

was extremely rude and nasty to me,

I'd like to thank her.

She really freed me.

I was about to make
the worst decision of my life.

I would have been totally screwed.

That's pretty obvious.

I was never rude or nasty to you.

No?

-That's the way I talk.
-Everyone watched it.

-You talk like an impolite person.
-I was not rude to you.

I said we would
get to know each other with time,

but that you are also my queen.

Those words are in the episode.

Now you should understand

what you need to understand.

This is what I think.

Not interested? Don't win them over.

What I don't get,
is right before he made his entrance

his smile is…

So fake.

It's like a toothpaste commercial.

I thought, "He just got married."

Then he goes up there
and rains on her parade.

He embarrassed her too much.

He says he didn't let his mom sway him,

but he absolutely did!

-She definitely controls him!
-Thank you.

-Come on.
-She wants to live his life.

-No.
-Period.

She wants his life. Look.

-Let me talk.
-No.

You spoke. Now it's my turn.

Parenting is saying, "This is
the right path, this is the wrong one."

They decide.

If they happen to fall flat on their face,

you should be there with open arms.

-But you don't meddle in their choices.
-No.

Nowadays, guys want
to make choices using their parents.

I'm not just saying this to him,

but to the others.

"She's not my partner.
She won't go hiking with me."

My wife is my partner.
She's never played soccer with me.

Here's the thing.

I've never wanted to own my son.

I wanted to show him

the reality of a marriage.

He's human. He makes mistakes.
But one virtue you have

is your sincerity and humility.

So if you chose to say no,

it's because you didn't want
to hurt her more in the future.

Again, Maura, it's not that he said no.

-She's talking about clarity.
-It's how he said no.

-It's the way he said it.
-He waited so long.

-He got so close. Exactly.
-I was shocked too.

-It's not that he said no.
-He told me he would say yes.

Exactly. Even you were shocked.

-I was shocked.
-That's the argument. Not that he said no.

Let's make that clear. Please.

What I want, from the bottom of my heart…

especially for you, Will,
is that you learn from your mistakes.

Man up for good and stay strong, you know?

I want that for
the next poor woman who comes along,

and your mom gets involved again.

So, do better.

Good luck to you and your mom.

-Thank you for your trust and your time.
-Thank you.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

Way back in the pods,

one participant
went viral on social media,

because she's amazing.

It couldn't be any other way.

We have the honor of welcoming her
to Love Is Blind: Brazil 2: The Reunion.

Amanda!

-I have to ask this first question.
-Oh, my God.

Are you single?

I am.

-How's it going--
-Where's the line? I'm sure it's crazy.

Would you handle that for me?

How are you dealing
with the social media attention?

-Did you expect this?
-No.

But it's also amazing, right?

Because women
are finally appreciating themselves.

I get lots of messages

about similar experiences,

or about how they feel.

A lot of them are teenagers,
and that is moving

because my kid is a teen.

But a lot of them
are women who don't do things,

or had similar experiences.

People who hide themselves
because of their bodies.

I got lots of pictures of women
in crop tops with their bellies out,

showing their bodies.

-Lots of bikini pictures.
-Wow.

If you stop to think,

all this fallout…

We're all extremely insecure.

When we see a reaction
that's not what we expect…

When a woman won't get surgery,

she won't get skinny,
she won't get smaller to fit in,

she won't change herself or hide herself…

It's rare.

Loving yourself is crazy.

It's basically a rebellion these days.

-Yeah.
-That's how we see it.

-Did you ever regret participating?
-No.

No.

Never.

I don't, because it was all real.

I'd do it again. I like…

I can't go through life
avoiding experiences.

I won't hide myself,
so other women won't hide either.

Is there an ideal man for you?

Someone brave.

Not someone brave enough to handle me,

but to handle himself.

Brave enough to handle his emotions
without thinking about others.

Everything
you experienced here was intense,

and you fell in love,

or tried to, through those pods.

That's why

I'd like to invite you to rediscover,

or relive situations
you went through in the pods.

With one small difference.

You will be able
to choose to push a button

and the wall will open,

so you can look that person in the eye

who made your heart beat faster.

Or you can choose to keep the wall intact,

and forget it.

It's your last chance to say
everything that has been left unsaid.

And remember

that love is what brought you here.

Guilherme.

I was totally in love with you.

I've been mad at you.

-Now--
-Mai, wait.

I've heard this.
I don't want to hear it again.

-I'm good.
-Listen to me.

Now I look at you, and I'm happy to say

that I don't feel anything.

I just want you
to go on with your life in peace

and achieve your dream.

Whatever it is you came here to find,

I hope you find it.

I'm here in the pods,
but I don't feel anything.

I'm totally indifferent.

I said everything I wanted to.
I don't want to waste my time and energy.

I don't wish you ill.

I wish you only good things.

But it's obvious to me
that you're fake and manipulative.

All right, Vanessa.

I don't think anything I say
will excuse some of the things I did.

So I just want to apologize.

I was honest with you the whole time.

I really did fall in love with you.

I feel fine,
because I really fell for you.

You were so in love…

so in love that you played a game
to make yourself look good.

-No, Vanessa.
-You did.

-You're fake.
-Okay.

You're cold, calculating, and deceitful.

-That's all.
-This behavior is what made me say no.

Well, Verônica, I think

today was a day of closure.

I'm sorry I embarrassed you like that.

I totally understand
everything you're feeling,

and all your points.

I'm genuinely happy you're with someone

who can give you
all the things you deserve.

That's pretty much it.

Okay.

I don't have much to say.

Just, good luck on your journey.

-I'm out.
-Bye-bye.

Anyone there?

Yeah, what's up?

I think that might be
one of the first things I said to you.

I remember.

I think I'm glad
we're replaying this moment.

The only thing I would have changed…

is what happened,

because I wouldn't
change anything about our story.

I agree. Our story
happened the way it had to.

The way it had to.

It was good for me

to be with a woman like you.

Not just beautiful,

but a warrior

who makes me want to be better every day.

It's not easy

to see the jewel you lost.

I'm not afraid to say it anymore.

I love you.

I still don't know
if at any point, we'll be able

to resume our story
where it started, or to start a new one.

But I hope, with what happened,

that in future relationships
you will respect the other person.

I would like to hug you one last time,
and tell you how much I care about you.

Let me hug you.

I wish you all the best.

Thank you for everything.

-If you need me for anything--
-You'll always be in my heart.

Come on. You're in mine too.

You're part of my story.

-Yeah.
-A story that's there for everyone.

Bye.

Anyone there?

Hey. There is.

Who is it?

Thamara.

Thamara?

Wow, this is way better.
