I believe the love of my life
is on Love is Blind.
It's time to find my wife.
Buongiorno, amore mio!
I am so excited to meet her in person.
Let's find the love of my life.
He's here. I know it.
So many attractive people.
I already love you.
He told everyone that.
He came here to get famous.
I never thought
I'd be in a love triangle like this.
Relax, you're upset.
He called me over,
wanting to intimidate me.
Jesus. I was like a rabid dog.
He said,
"I'll fall asleep thinking of you."
Why you and not me?
I didn't like it and I'm upset.
Their shine falling away.
I'm getting on my knees in this pod.
I really want
to fall asleep and wake up next to you.
-I made my decision.
-Wow.
I'm in love with her essence.
I can't explain how I can
be in with love someone I've never seen.
I never thought
I would meet someone like him
on a television show.
I love you, baby!
I love you!
Then it's time for the honeymoon
on a beach of their dreams.
That's when things start heating up.
Will the physical attraction
built back at the pods work or not?
It's the first night,
and sex is not expected tonight.
And then, there's daily life.
Weeks later, will their love
stand strong despite it all?
I saw an "I love you."
I'm screwed.
Talk about fucking rude!
-You left me there alone.
-When?
On the wedding day, they'll say yes or no
to the person they blindly met
in the pods during this experiment.
Are you also ready to hear no?
Does blind love lead to marriage?
LOVE IS BLIND: BRAZIL
Oh my God.
I'm anxious, you know?
I'm so nervous that
I'm eating all their drink garnishes.
If I were in their shoes,
I would be shaking.
Do you hear that?
I heard a noise.
I think they're here.
-They're here.
-Stop eating. They're here, Camila.
Stop eating.
Hi!
-What's up, ladies?
-Welcome!
Yeah, dude!
-What's up, guys?
-It's time.
Welcome to the third season
of Love is Blind: Brazil!
That's right. Welcome.
My dear, look.
So many attractive people.
Too bad that means nothing
here on Love is Blind,
until you prove otherwise.
I wanted to do this experiment...
NUTRITIONIST
...because I wanted deeper connections.
You get to know
who people really are inside.
As a woman with a disability,
I'm used to judgment.
I'm about to cry.
I've been judged my entire life.
I've gotten looks, comments.
So, it's complicated,
but it made me the strong woman that I am.
You will have multiple blind dates
with multiple people.
The only thing
you'll know about each other
are your voices.
I won't be able to see
their physical characteristics.
PUBLICIST
A million things go through your head.
I'm a light-skinned Black woman.
If I have kids with a white person,
people will think I'm the nanny.
If the connection is real,
then it's time to propose
or receive
that so-coveted marriage proposal.
You'll meet in person,
and then go on a dream honeymoon
in one of the most
beautiful places in the world,
Pipa Beach in Rio Grande do Norte.
Sounds good, right?
What the hell?
Being here, you know
you're going to get married.
PHYSICAL EDUCATOR
You're going to find a person
to live the rest of your life with.
I hope we have
a heart and soul connection.
That's crucial.
Does blind love lead to marriage?
Absolutely.
Yes!
-We hope so.
-We hope so.
All right, let's go.
The pods are open for you.
-Thank you!
-Let's go. Get excited!
I'll leave it up to the universe...
ENTREPRENEUR AND JOURNALIST
...but it could be the time.
It's time to find my wife.
FIRST DAY OF THE EXPERIMENT
Oh my God, let's get married.
I hope the man of my dreams is here.
Oh God.
Let's do this!
My God, my heart.
What a dream!
How pretty!
-Hello?
-Who's there?
-It's Edu.
-Hi, Edu!
-My heart is racing.
-Oh my God.
This is crazy.
Getting married is a dream of mine.
I yearn to have someone by my side.
Someone I can evolve with.
I've been asking the universe
for the right person for a long time.
I wasn't expecting someone so romantic.
MARKETING COORDINATOR
This is crazy.
Next!
ENGINEER
-Hi.
-Hi.
-Hi there.
-Hey!
-How are you?
-I'm so good.
-Are you having fun?
-I am so happy.
It's crazy. This is so cool.
I am so happy to be doing this.
SALES MANAGER
-Tell me your name.
-Gabi.
Gabi.
-Carolina Pinto.
-I'm Patricia.
-Karen.
-Maria Carolina.
I already love you.
-Why?
-I'll tell you.
Maria is the name of my amazing,
incredible, and perfect mother.
-Mine too.
-What?
-Maria Silvia.
-No way.
Mine is Maria Helena.
-What's your name?
-Valmir.
-Valmir.
-But don't worry.
But don't worry, despite my name,
I am not 80. I know.
I'm not an elderly man, okay?
"I'm not an elderly man." That's so...
What a vibe. What energy.
He came on strong. Like a giant.
LAWYER
I got my name from my grandfather.
I'm a third-generation Valmir.
-My dad is Mário, and my brother is Mário.
-Thank you.
-That's it.
-Now, imagine this.
Your brother tells you,
"I'm going to name
my kid Mário the Fourth."
I don't have to imagine. He wants that!
Let me tell you something, Karen.
I want to, too.
Is he serious?
Where are you from?
I'm from São Paulo and I live in Santos.
What?
I'm from Santos, but I live in São Paulo.
That's unreal.
Straight out of Santos to the pods.
It's showtime.
When people see me,
they see a chubby white boy with blue eyes
and they think, "What a grandma's boy."
And they're right. I am.
I have a 99-year-old grandma
who will be at the wedding.
She'll be the ring bearer.
I came here to get married.
I prepared, I read books,
all to be here and give it my best shot.
He's a lion. He's a machine.
Dude's in your ear like,
"Goddamn. Hold on tight."
The hardest thing in life
isn't having the best car, house, or job.
It's being able
to find the woman to grow old with.
It's not just about material goods.
-Yes.
-It's about love, affection, faithfulness.
Someone to talk to. A partner.
My heart is like...
Oh, God.
He got to me.
I mean that from the heart.
I'm sharing this with you
because I like your voice, your vibe.
I didn't say that to the others.
Only to a person I really want to hear it.
I feel so special.
Oh my God. What a charmer!
He'll ruin my life.
My parents have been married for 36 years.
I have that example of partnership,
of communication, of unity, of fidelity.
I want to be a couple like my parents are.
At my house, every weekend
my dad brings my mom flowers.
-Oh my God.
-I bring my grandma flowers.
-She's 99.
-Oh my God.
-Some women find that outdated.
-No.
They think...
-I like some old-fashioned things.
-Me too.
I like when men walk
between me and the road on the sidewalk.
I like to be protected.
I call my last few relationships
"mini breakdowns."
A mix of being lonely
and not having anything to do.
Basically that. Not great.
ENTREPRENEUR
My name is Maria Carolina. I'm 29.
I'm looking for a guy who will
embrace me, my family, my dreams.
A guy who will and dream with me
and let me dream with him.
You were talking
about your parents' marriage.
-Dude, even now, my dad brings me coffee...
-Holy shit.
...and another one for my mother,
every single morning of our lives.
And...
Wow, I'm getting
choked up talking about him.
I'm not tooting my own horn,
but they raised
one hell of a woman.
Shit, Maria. Listen.
I like you a lot.
-Me too.
-You're my number one.
-You're mine too.
-Easy.
-Easy.
-I wanna talk to you again.
I liked our chat.
Perfect.
He seems really interesting.
I hope I'm the only one who liked him.
I really liked talking to Valmir today.
The butterflies I'm feeling are new.
The only thing I have to do now
is follow my heart.
I'll try to listen to my brain too.
I think Maria got to me the most.
Maria...
I don't know.
We had a really strong connection.
I hope I can talk to her again.
WOMEN'S LOUNGE
-Are you married yet?
-We are!
-She's in love!
-How great!
Who are your favorites? Quick!
I think everyone is feeling euphoric.
We're all excited
to meet someone cool and trade notes.
No one is wondering
if there will be drama.
Has anyone made you go...
-Valmir.
-She liked him too.
-Valmir.
-Look at all the girls and Valmir.
Valmir Reis, I liked him.
Wow, Valmir. You're good, huh?
PUBLICIST
Valmir is a great guy.
We made plans to go see the snow.
There was some gossip in the lounge.
I didn't hear much of it.
Honestly, I didn't want to hear it.
Girls, Valmir is interesting.
He said he wanted to marry me now.
-Now!
-He said the same thing to everyone.
-Valmir Reis?
-Delete Valmir.
A lot of the girls liked Valmir.
He's either a smooth talker
or he really is an interesting guy.
Valmir is a shameless player.
He's a womanizer.
I thought, "No, thanks.
I'm done with him."
He wants to be everyone's favorite.
He said the same things to everyone.
-It won't end well.
-It won't end well.
-Hi.
-Hi. How are you?
You sound like
you're smiling. I like that.
-What's your name?
-I'm Menandro.
Maria Carolina.
Where do you live?
I live in São Paulo.
Where?
-Perdizes.
-Wow!
That's next to my second home.
You're a Palmeiras fan?
I am. Why?
-Because I am.
-Great! We both are.
Her heart is green. How about that?
Uh oh. Three stars!
BUSINESS OWNER
Man, that was really surreal.
My ideal woman is respectful,
affectionate, and caring.
I expect to leave here
married to someone special.
I want that.
I didn't come with a strategy.
I'm just gonna be me.
She's gotta like me for being Menandro.
For my essence, my heart,
and what I'm saying.
It's all sincere.
What do you do, Maria?
I own an artisanal bag store.
I own a store too.
I sell construction materials.
Did you start it?
You had that entrepreneurial spirit early?
-Yes.
-Amazing. I love business too.
I was 19 when we opened.
Of course, my parents helped.
But it was my idea.
I just decided it would work.
-I knew God would bless me.
-Yeah.
-Are you a family man?
-I am.
My parents have
been together for 33 years.
-Yes.
-And I have a six-year-old daughter.
What's her name? Sorry.
-Helena Rosa.
-That's beautiful.
Helena Rosa is my princess. She's cute.
Do you get along with her mom?
Do you have a stable relationship?
We're totally chill.
We were only together for less than...
She got pregnant within months.
We parted ways after Lelê was born.
Do you want
more kids in your future marriage?
Or are you closed for business?
Not at all. I want to have more kids.
-My dream is to have a boy.
-I want a boy.
-Oh, hey! Another star.
-It's my dream.
Only God can stop me.
I don't know your religion,
but I'm Catholic.
I grew up in the Church.
My dad was a minister.
-My mom was a catechist.
-My dad is a pastor.
A blessed family.
-You're really cool.
-You too.
-I really like you.
-I like you too. Your vibe is good.
-Yes.
-We're similar. I drew two stars here.
I like to hear that I'm getting stars,
because I put
a little heart by his name, too.
-I'd really like to talk to you.
-Me too.
Let's do it.
I want to know more about you.
-Thanks. Bye.
-See ya.
-Bye-bye.
-Bye.
This is so hard!
They're all cool.
I really related to Maria.
I fell in love immediately.
MEN'S LOUNGE
He and I fell for the same girl.
-We almost fought.
-Yeah.
-I said, "Maria?"
-Don't mess with me.
I wanted to beat him up.
I'm hugging this guy,
knowing that he might like the same girl.
I think it's really weird.
It's really going to mess with my head.
I only had eyes for Maria.
Maria, my number one.
Hey, they were fighting.
-Really? I'll stay out of it.
-Him and Valmir.
-It's drama.
-Things will get ugly.
In this first round, I talked
to all 16 girls. One after the other.
-If you invite me to watch a game, I will.
-Of course I will.
-You'll come with me.
-I will.
-I like that.
-Awesome.
I liked talking with you.
We have a lot in common.
But Maria was on another level.
Now, I don't know what I'll do.
Hi. What's your name?
-Bianca.
-Jarbas.
-What do you do?
-I'm a nutritionist, Jarbas.
I found my nutritionist.
If you pay well, why not?
-Let's do some business.
-You'd charge your husband?
-What? You're already proposing?
-Uh oh!
Are you? That's it? It's done?
-Let's do it, then. Done.
-Let's go.
My ideal relationship
is with someone
who respects me as a woman.
I've had really hard experiences
where the guy wanted
to control how I looked and talked.
I've been told, "You're pretty,
but you'd be prettier if you were skinny."
I can't put up with things like that.
I know what I came here to find.
What do you do?
I'm a bookkeeper,
and I have a children's clothing business.
-That's cool. I have a son.
-You do?
You can give me fashion tips.
-There you go. We can do a trade.
-Exactly.
My name is Jarbas, and I'm 31 years old.
I'm a very emotional and intense person.
Even if it's just casual,
I post our pictures on my social media.
I fall in love fast.
I dive in. I don't care what others think.
I care how I feel.
-How old is your son?
-He's six.
-I have a two-year-old daughter.
-She's just a baby.
-She's not mine biologically.
-Okay.
It still counts.
Sometimes guys go,
"A single mom trying
to find her son a dad."
-I think most men have that prejudice.
-No, I'm not looking for that.
About single women with kids.
I'm not looking for a father for my son.
I'm looking for a life partner.
Do you want to have more kids?
It depends on what happens moving forward.
It has to be planned.
Maybe the love of my life is here,
and his dream is to be a father.
-My dream is to be a dad. Shall we?
-Okay.
I'm here to get married.
I'm going to leave here married.
Are you jealous in relationships?
I have a healthy kind of jealousy.
I'll talk it out.
Or if you give me
a reason to be. But I'm not crazy.
One thing that won't work for me anymore
is a toxic and abusive relationship.
-Definitely.
-No way.
-A guy wanting to control what I wear.
-There's no way.
-Or the way I talk. Exactly.
-We're not objects.
I'll tell you, I do not like jealousy.
-Me neither.
-I don't like it.
I loved meeting you.
I'm putting three stars here.
-Can I put four?
-Yeah.
I'm over the limit, but that's fine.
-Thanks, Bianca. Bye.
-Thanks, Jarbas.
-Talk to you tomorrow.
-Bye.
I really liked talking to her,
and I want to talk more
to get to know her essence better.
Guys, this group is lit. What the hell?
I'd marry all of them.
-Hi.
-How are you?
-I'm good. You?
-I'm good.
What's your name?
-You talk so fast.
-Sorry.
What's your name?
It's not about talking quieter.
It's about talking less, like...
Talking slower.
-Hi. How are you?
-Hey.
-I'm good. You?
-I'm great.
-What's your name?
-Jarbas.
Jarbas.
I won't ask your last name,
because there can only be one of you.
What do you like to do
when you aren't working?
That's a complex question.
Do you go to the beach or stay home?
That's such a hard question.
It depends on my mood.
-I love to travel.
-Awesome.
I always try to get to the beach.
I love to roast in the sun.
-Go sunbathing.
-Lie around having drinks.
Last year I went backpacking to...
I've been on a lot of trips... a few trips
based around beaches.
That's my favorite thing to do.
Do you play any sports or anything?
I do weight training.
Do you do any physical activity?
I go to the gym too.
-It's been...
-I started doing it this year.
Some are harder to talk to than others.
But I'm a down-to-earth guy,
so before moving,
I like to know
what my next step should be.
To our first day!
I was raised having deep conversations.
Things with me aren't superficial.
CONTRACT ANALYST
It's either all of me or none of me.
I want someone who is a good person.
I want to admire them.
Like, "I admire you."
SECOND DAY OF THE EXPERIMENT
I am expecting to reinforce
those connections I made yesterday.
More profound conversations
about things I want to know.
-Hello.
-Hi.
-Who's that?
-Bianca.
-Bianca. How are you?
-Who's that?
-It's Jarbas.
-Hey!
-How are you?
-I'm happy to talk to you again.
-How nice.
-I had a dream about you.
-Really?
-I did.
-Was it a good dream?
-It was not, Jarbas.
I dreamt you left the show,
and I was so upset.
-Really?
-I swear.
You think I'd give up on you?
-I hope not.
-Of course not.
-You're high up on my list of favorites.
-You are, too.
Way up high. On the podium.
-The podium?
-The podium.
You're at the top, too.
I really like Bianca.
She's really extroverted
and communicative.
She has baggage, too.
We both have children.
For Sophia's mother,
would getting married...
Do you think she would be pissed off?
-Would it change things?
-I don't think so.
She moved on. She's dating someone.
-She's got her life.
-Okay.
I think, for me,
I can move on and it will be fine.
I met her on a dating app.
She was three months pregnant.
We started dating,
and I was with her
throughout the entire pregnancy and birth.
She doesn't have my DNA,
but she has my love.
Yeah. A father is who raises the child.
That Jarbas has this connection
with a non-biological daughter
tells me that he is
very resolved in his decisions.
He has a lot of character.
He gained a lot of points.
He seems like an incredible guy
and an exceptional father.
If we happened to get married
and got along great,
I'd want to be part of Sophia's life.
I would also like you
to be present in Klaus' life.
You gained points there.
We have to be involved,
because it's forever.
These family questions,
and personal questions... we're in sync.
These conversations make me feel
like we're really getting more connected.
-I'm gonna knock the screen down.
-Let's do it.
-Should we hug? Quick.
-Let's do it.
-To embarrass my mom.
-Hug the screen.
-I'm hugging it.
-Me too.
I didn't want to leave the pod.
I wanted more time to talk.
I'm really in love with that boy.
She made it clear that I'm her number one.
That made me really happy.
It's an unreal connection.
-Can I get a "hello?"
-Hello.
Hearing someone's voice
and having to figure out
who they really are,
is a really different experience.
I'm excited to talk
to one person in particular.
Who is this?
-Who are you?
-Valmir.
Oh my God.
What?
Is that bad?
-No, it's great.
-Why?
Because I missed you.
I missed you.
That's so great,
because I fell asleep thinking about you.
I didn't think it was me,
based on what I heard in the lounge.
It did cross my mind that Valmir
didn't know who he was talking to.
You know what I think?
I think you've been falling asleep
thinking about a lot of people.
I learned how he acts from the gossip.
I call it "informative gossip."
I am informed.
I don't know who this is,
but I want to make something clear.
I didn't come here to toy with people.
All I've done until now is being honest.
Yesterday, we only had
ten minutes to do that.
In ten minutes, I had to
open myself up some to certain people.
And I opened up more to other people.
Today you're going to open up to me.
And who are you?
Maria.
Shit!
Fuck!
-I was really hoping it was you.
-Maria.
-You have no idea.
-I really was.
Maria really got to me
from the very beginning.
She's my top contender. My number one.
Who knows if I'm hers?
You were my number one yesterday, too.
I think you're great.
I want to get to know you better today,
make sure my intuition is correct.
So I can confirm
what I said in the lounge was correct.
I did the same thing.
There's another guy here
who's thinking about you.
I'm talking about Menandro.
I felt... fine
after my first date with Menandro.
I think that was because
I'm talking to
a lot of cool people at once.
-Do you know what I want to know?
-Tell me.
I asked about family yesterday.
I really like being there
for them on weekends,
I'd like to take my future spouse
to be with my family.
I want to know
if you're the type of guy
who likes that, and accepts it.
I'm extremely family-oriented.
To the point where my friends say,
"Come hang out with us.
You're always with family."
That level.
Valmir, you're so cute.
I relate to your values,
your way of being.
You're really affectionate.
You're funny.
You make me feel
something good that I can't explain.
Do I really like this guy?
I know you'll have
the chance to talk to other guys,
but in every pod I enter,
I'll be thinking of you,
longing for you.
In the same way that my dad found my mom,
I think I found you.
Oh my God, dude. I'm sweating.
-Valmir, I want to talk to you again.
-Maria, I need you.
I don't want to talk to anyone else.
Fuck me.
As much as
Valmir's eagerness made me happy,
my intuition still hasn't
let me say yes to him.
In the same way
that he will go talk to others,
I need to be sure.
Hi.
I liked that hi!
Hi, Menandro. It's Maria.
How are you today?
Last night was tough.
There's a lot to think about.
You were one of the people on my mind.
Watch out for Menandro.
It's not even like that.
I'm not spitting game.
I'm being genuine.
I think I need to learn
a bit more about Menandro.
I'm a little curious.
Do you still talk
to any of your exes?
-Only my daughter's mom.
-Yeah.
We'll always be in contact.
Is the fact that I'm a father
a problem for you?
It's not an issue for me.
I think having
a good relationship with the mother...
Her not getting jealous
of your daughter spending time with me...
The rest we'll take as it comes.
My daughter is my life.
Her having a relationship
with my daughter is essential.
That's fundamental
to any longevity.
Since my daughter was born,
it's been a problem, like,
"I'm seeing someone.
How will I introduce them to her?"
I just always freeze up.
My last relationship
was out of the ordinary,
because she didn't accept my daughter.
She didn't understand
my love for my daughter,
which is different from romantic love.
That's the last thing
I would feel competitive about.
Where do you see yourself in 30 years?
Almost a grandma.
God willing, still in my first marriage.
Knowing that I'm hearing the voice
of the person I might marry
is really intense.
Falling in love with a person's essence.
is what the world needs.
I'm really moved by you.
I'm, at least, starting to narrow down
my options.
Narrow them. Yeah.
So, I talked to Valmir.
He really liked
talking to you, and so did I.
Oh my God. What do we do, Maria?
I don't know what to do.
I don't know.
You've made me extremely confused.
I still can't say that he's the one,
but I didn't expect
him to make it into my one, two, three.
MEN'S LOUNGE
-Damn, dude.
-What's up?
-This is crazy.
-Amazing. What an experience.
-Who were you talking to?
-Just now? Maria.
-The last...
-And?
How was it?
The vibe in the lounge
is really intense. Very crazy.
We've already got these disputes.
-Look at his face.
-Come here.
Let me be real.
Did you have a great time with Maria? Yes.
Did I have a great time too? Yes.
-Because she's our number one.
-Totally.
So what's the deal?
I told her, "I think
about you morning and night."
"But feel comfortable
talking to other guys."
She said she didn't want to.
That's how we ended things.
-That was the vibe.
-Yes.
Then, she went and talked to you.
-Then what?
-Then what?
Then what?
Then what? We had our same connection.
She's still my number one.
Regardless of this.
He called me over
to intimidate me or something.
That's just how he is. I could tell.
I don't feel intimidated by him.
Not at all.
What do you want?
That's it. I said what I wanted.
You take it up with her.
Or not, because you just said
that it might just be the two of you now.
She probably said that to both of us.
No, she didn't.
Things might be different tomorrow.
-I'm being honest.
-Yeah.
-We don't play games here.
-Right.
But listen, she'll decide.
Absolutely.
There's drama brewing.
If I have to, I'll earn it.
THIRD DAY OF THE EXPERIMENT
Oh my God.
-Hey.
-Hi.
Bianca!
-It's Jarbas.
-I know.
-It's my husband.
-It is?
Your husband is here.
For me to fall in love,
all he has to say is, "I choose you."
Listen, for the honeymoon...
What are you expecting
from the first meeting? Kissing? Sex?
Touching?
-Connection?
-I think it's about surrendering.
It's a singular moment
for the couple, that first meeting.
So I'd say go all in, but no spoilers.
Let's see when the moment comes,
but I think that's how I feel.
Has anything strange
happened to you in bed?
Not off the top of my head. You?
No, but there are things I don't like.
Like when I notice a guy
forcing exaggerated facial expressions.
-Yeah.
-It bothers me.
I start thinking
about other things, like bills.
She doesn't hold back.
She says whatever comes to mind.
It should be natural.
-Yes, I think that...
-It's something...
It's the kiss, Jarbas,
that will tell us everything.
Yeah, the first kiss
tells you a lot about the person.
-God, I'm hot.
-Yeah.
I'm taking my shirt off.
-It's hot in here.
-Seriously, I swear.
-It's so hot in here.
-Jesus Christ.
It's crazy. We can't see each other,
but I want to kiss you so badly.
-Same.
-Really?
-Yeah.
-Seriously, I feel crazy.
There's chemistry between me and Jarbas.
I want to do it all.
She's really flirty. I am too.
I like when there's heat.
I'm kissing the screen.
-You are?
-Let's go.
-Are you really?
-Of course!
I'm not kissing your cheek.
You're my husband.
-Go.
-Bye.
I wanted to jump through the screen
to kiss him. I'll admit it.
We have a lot of qualities in common.
A lot of shared goals.
Every day, I'm more excited
to get to know more about her life.
Hi.
-What's up, baby?
-I missed you!
Just going into the pods
to talk to him, I start shaking all over.
There's a chest.
-There's a chest here?
-Yeah.
Oh my God.
She gave me a scrunchie
with her perfume on it.
Also, a stuffed animal and a card.
"May this new chapter in our story
be another brick
we use to build our castle."
"Here is a token, so you can keep me near
and remember my smell."
"Love, Bianca."
-So you can sleep with me.
-It has your scent.
I'm really anxious to meet her in person.
To hug her, and kiss her, and smell her.
So I don't have to rely on
the gift she gave me.
-Good morning, baby.
-Good morning, baby.
I've got your scrunchie around my wrist.
I sniff it all day long.
-I brought more things for you to sniff.
-Yeah?
In the chest?
-Yeah.
-Open yours too.
You smell so good!
Oh, wow.
Very sexy.
I fall more in love with her every day.
She's incredible. We have a lot in common.
I'M IN LOVE
Everything we talk about, we agree on.
We view life the same way.
My heart is racing. He really got to me.
It's beating fast.
I hope I exceed all of your expectations.
-Maybe that scares me.
-You already have exceeded them.
I'm scared
of you finding out
that I'm more than you thought
and different from what you're used to.
Wow, that was profound.
You might only understand
when you meet me.
I can tell that I've already changed
a lot from how I used to be.
I can see you for who you are,
and that's amazing to me.
I'm in love with your essence.
It's normal to wonder how a person looks,
but that won't change how I feel.
It won't change
my passion, my love. None of that.
It's just a human curiosity.
Love is blind.
Seeing her won't change my opinion,
because I'm in love with her essence.
-Are you still there?
-Just a sec.
-Wanna lie down next to the screen?
-Yeah.
-How nice.
-Oh my God.
How nice.
This guy is the love of my life.
I'm sure of it.
I've got a million expectations.
Don't let me down.
MEN'S LOUNGE
What's up? You good?
Are you upset?
I'm...
-A little upset.
-I don't know.
Menandro was crying in the bathroom today.
I took him aside.
We spent forever talking.
-I knew something was off.
-He was crying.
I got really sad when Valmir
told me he talked to Maria.
I think I missed my chance.
I got sad.
I'm waiting for her
to come talk to me,
so I can know if that's it.
If she's really Valmir's number one,
if that's what she wants,
and so I can understand
what she's thinking.
-Hi.
-Hi.
Is it who I think it is?
My God.
-Do you want a hint?
-What letter does it start with?
-M.
-Maria?
-Yeah.
-My God.
-What letter does your name start with?
-M.
-Mena?
-Yeah.
I don't believe it.
When I heard his voice...
There's just no explanation.
Thank God it's him.
I didn't want it to be anyone else.
I thought about you last night.
-No way.
-I did.
Don't say that.
I did.
He cried, and, like...
He's not afraid
to show that he's sensitive.
He's not afraid to be himself.
He's not scared
to give a relationship his all.
He's not afraid
that I'll think he's strong or weak.
That only makes me respect him more.
I can't believe it's you.
That's what I said the day before,
and she didn't say it back.
So I just crumbled, because we connected.
It, like, made me relieved.
Everything I had been
holding inside came out.
I only had love to give her after that.
-Maria. Let's hug.
-Yeah?
I'm hugging it.
This is really crazy. You know?
I do.
But since the first day,
from the first time we talked,
I left the pods like,
"Man, she's the one."
I relate to you in a way
that I can't explain.
-It's really crazy.
-I didn't think it was mutual.
How could you not?
-I don't want to talk to anyone else.
-I don't want to either.
Swear to God?
I can't believe it!
-I'm hugging you.
-I'm hugging you.
Do you smell good?
I do. I think I smell good.
-Me too.
-Yeah?
I'm really vain.
I am too. I'm really vain.
I'm really vain.
It might annoy you, but I am.
You'll never annoy me.
I'll only appreciate you.
I'm blushing.
This is crazy.
Menandro makes me ache right here.
Bizarre.
Everyone knew Valmir was
my number one on day one.
But I only heard bad things.
He told all my friends the same thing.
He's got a big fat mouth.
Maria was like...
There was some gossip in the lounge,
some gossip I never agreed with.
I'm excited to get to know Valmir more,
and understand more about him.
I never care about others' opinions.
Not out there or in here.
I wasn't sure yesterday,
but I went to bed thinking about it.
If I wanted to meet someone
who I could meet out on the street,
I'd be in my bedroom
looking on my phone right now.
-Exactly.
-I've got guys I could call.
I came here
looking for something different.
Yeah, the opposite. Exactly.
You know?
That's not what I came here for.
I came here to get married.
I don't need more of the same.
It weighed heavily that Valmir
talked to everyone the same way.
MEN'S LOUNGE
I've got something to tell you.
Here's the deal.
Maria just talked to a guy.
-Menandro.
-Menandro.
He came out of there really excited.
He was really happy.
Look at Menandro. He's so happy, man.
He's talking to everyone with so much joy.
It's like he's saying, "She's mine!"
I got really worried and upset.
So I thought, "I know
who I am and what I want."
"I'll get it."
I went over to Menandro.
-Hey, bro.
-Hey.
-We need to talk, man.
-Come on.
-Oh, sorry. How are you?
-It's just...
Valmir was a little agitated.
ATHLETE FITNESS COACH
-Okay.
-Finish talking.
God, I was like a rabid dog.
I wanted to understand,
I wanted to know what was happening.
I was champing at the bit.
I'm circling, and he's not talking to me.
Valmir, loosen up. Shit.
I'm relaxed.
I'm chill.
Sure you are.
I didn't avoid contact with Valmir,
but I didn't want any conflict.
I didn't come here to feud with anyone.
I came to be honest.
When I talked to her
in the pod just now, dude...
-And she...
-She gave you peace?
-She did.
-She helped you relax?
She did.
And she talked,
and she listened, and you talked.
And...
She has a top three.
Your top three and my top three...
is all her.
-But she doesn't know that.
-To be honest, she said that too.
What did she say?
That she doesn't
want to talk to other guys.
-I get it.
-That's why I was so happy.
I'm being really honest with you.
Fuck. I was floored.
I don't know if you'll talk to her,
or how that conversation will go.
But I left the pod with the intention that
we only want to talk to each other.
I still haven't given up on her.
So I'm gonna talk to her.
We'll have our moment.
And I'll root for everything to go well.
Hello.
Is that Valmir?
Yikes!
It is.
Yikes, Valmir.
Who's there?
Things are ugly for you out there.
Look. Listen to me.
-I'm listening.
-I only came here to get married.
I only came here
to find the love of my life.
To grow old together
and to make her the happiest woman alive.
I didn't come to cause trouble.
But now, every time I talk to a woman,
she says I'm sweet-talking everyone.
And I come in and you say,
"It's ugly out there for you."
-It's like...
-No.
-I'm fucked.
-It's gossip.
That's the thing. I hear gossip.
I don't know your name. You know mine.
My name is Maria.
Why the silence?
I thought you into me the first few days.
Then I found out
you were sweet-talking everyone.
Maria.
We're in a place
where we need to get to know people.
Do you want me to say
different things to each woman I talk to?
Or do you want me to be honest
and be the same person
with everyone I talk to?
But you can't say
exactly the same thing to everyone.
Exactly, Maria. And you were
the only one I could open my heart to.
You were the only one
I shared things with.
The only woman I've put
as number one since the beginning.
I'm not sure of that. Sorry.
So, listen to this.
Gossip isn't there to help you.
It fucks you over.
Gossip isn't advice.
Gossip is terrible.
Gossip is like,
"Don't look at him, girlfriend!"
And you've known her for two days.
"Look over there!"
Because she wants the same guy.
That's part of what this is.
It's part of the deal, this game.
Calm down. You're getting upset.
Why are you upset? Are you angry?
Calm down. Breathe.
It wasn't just what I heard,
but what I heard him say.
The tone that Valmir uses
also sets off the alarms for me
of an abusive relationship.
I need to speak.
If you've made
your decision, that's great.
But I need to speak, and I will speak.
I was sure you were
the woman I was going to ask to marry me.
That we would have
one hell of a story here on Love is Blind.
Well, Mena is my choice.
And...
that's it.
I wish you the best of luck.
Cool.
There was nothing I could do.
I lost her to myself.
You know?
-Bye.
-See ya.
It's over for me.
It's just over for me.
MEN'S LOUNGE
I've made my decision.
I want Bianca in my life.
I think she is the right person for me.
We have the same life goal.
I think that's really important to me.
We think the same way.
You don't sleep.
It's a whirlwind of thoughts
about how it will go.
Will we be able to
say everything we have to say?
But I think I'm ready
to bring her into my life,
and call her my bride.
Babe?
-Hi.
-How are you?
Good. And you?
You want it to end quickly so we can meet,
but you also want it to happen slowly
to live each minute, and each...
-Each moment.
-Yeah.
Did you choke up?
Hello?
Are you crying?
Why are you crying?
I'm sorry.
I'm emotional.
I planned a speech, but I was
so nervous I started crying immediately.
I can tell you that this experiment
is very real.
I fell in love with your essence.
I fell in love with your story.
I fell in love with the person you are.
I really believe we'll have
a beautiful life on the outside.
Me, you,
Klaus, and Sophia.
I'm sorry.
I'd like to read you something.
"Love is always patient."
"Always generous."
"And never jealous."
"Love is like the wind."
"I can't see it,
but I can feel it."
And on my knees,
I ask you...
Ana Bianca
de Almeida Sessa,
will you marry me?
Oh my God.
Yes, I will!
-Yes. A thousand times yes!
-Oh my God!
-I love you!
-I love you!
Mom, Dad, I'm getting married!
I'm engaged!
-I'm getting married!
-I'm engaged!
A thousand times yes.
I'll say it as many times as I have to.
I'm so happy. I shouted so much.
I'm hoarse.
God. It was incredible, guys.
It was better than expected.
A moment on par with the birth of my son,
which was the happiest time of my life.
-My fiancée!
-My fiancé!
We're engaged! We're getting married!
I'm ecstatic about this moment.
Today, I can say
that she's the love of my life.
I'll say yes to her on the altar.
I want to spend
the rest of my life with her.
Should I stay here or go there?
Who can sit at the brides' table now?
I'm getting married!
-Bianca!
-You're getting married!
Don't try to mess with us, bro.
-Don't try it.
-I'll throw a chair at you.
-She said no.
-You are a bad liar.
She fucking said no. She said no.
"No way could I live without you!"
Holy shit! Let's go!
To anyone I was talking to before,
I'm fucking retired!
Fuck yeah!
BIANCA AND JARBAS' FIRST MEETING
I'm nervous, really excited,
hopeful, happy.
It's a crazy mixture of feelings.
The excitement is high.
It's like I'm about to take a penalty kick
at the championship finals. It's...
It's like there's a stadium
of fans chanting, "Jarbas!"
Only one who's been through this
can understand how we feel.
Love really is blind. No question.
I'm head over heels for him.
I love Jarbas. He's the love of my life.
I think our connection will be unreal.
It will be incredible
to see and touch each other.
I slept well last night.
I dreamt I was meeting her.
In my dream, she had dark skin like me.
She had striking green eyes.
I kept looking at her eyes.
She was tall and really shy.
It was a really nice dream, knowing
I'll meet the love of my life today.
I don't fit the standards
that society imposes.
I'm a little chubby,
have a lot of tattoos,
and I have a disability.
So, of course, I get a little insecure.
Stay calm.
But if that thing opens,
and I don't get a good reaction...
It's his loss,
because I know I'm a hell of a woman.
ON SEASON THREE OF LOVE IS BLIND:
I said he's my number one.
-And he said?
-He said, "Same."
ON THE NEXT EPISODES
-What's wrong?
-She's sad.
I don't think your behavior,
being the last guy to talk to her,
was respectful to me.
-I'm engaged.
-I love you, baby!
IS THE CONNECTION
FROM THE PODS INTENSE AND TRUE?
I'm counting the minutes...
until we're there together.
OR FRAGILE AND DELICATE?
What could jeopardize this fairy tale?
I think it's really disrespectful
to embarrass your partner.
I think it's ridiculous.
Fuck you.
This conversation
isn't getting you anywhere.
CAN REAL LIFE HAVE SURPRISES?
He wants his woman
to be a modest housewife.
Sorry, I won't be his woman.
CAN THE PAST CHANGE THE FUTURE?
Some of his opinions aren't relative,
they're just unacceptable.
-Open your eyes.
-Wow, guys!
My mom didn't shed a single tear.
I liked the dress.
If she didn't, so be it.
WHAT EVERYONE WANTS TO KNOW...
We've finally arrived
at that long-awaited moment.
The time for our answers.
Does blind love lead to marriage?
I got the worst news of my life today.
Subtitle translation by: Adrian Minckley
---
I believe the love of my life
is on Love is Blind.
It's time to find my wife.
Buongiorno, amore mio!
I am so excited to meet her in person.
Let's find the love of my life.
He's here. I know it.
So many attractive people.
I already love you.
He told everyone that.
He came here to get famous.
I never thought
I'd be in a love triangle like this.
Relax, you're upset.
He called me over,
wanting to intimidate me.
Jesus. I was like a rabid dog.
He said,
"I'll fall asleep thinking of you."
Why you and not me?
I didn't like it and I'm upset.
Their shine falling away.
I'm getting on my knees in this pod.
I really want
to fall asleep and wake up next to you.
-I made my decision.
-Wow.
I'm in love with her essence.
I can't explain how I can
be in with love someone I've never seen.
I never thought
I would meet someone like him
on a television show.
I love you, baby!
I love you!
Then it's time for the honeymoon
on a beach of their dreams.
That's when things start heating up.
Will the physical attraction
built back at the pods work or not?
It's the first night,
and sex is not expected tonight.
And then, there's daily life.
Weeks later, will their love
stand strong despite it all?
I saw an "I love you."
I'm screwed.
Talk about fucking rude!
-You left me there alone.
-When?
On the wedding day, they'll say yes or no
to the person they blindly met
in the pods during this experiment.
Are you also ready to hear no?
Does blind love lead to marriage?
LOVE IS BLIND: BRAZIL
Oh my God.
I'm anxious, you know?
I'm so nervous that
I'm eating all their drink garnishes.
If I were in their shoes,
I would be shaking.
Do you hear that?
I heard a noise.
I think they're here.
-They're here.
-Stop eating. They're here, Camila.
Stop eating.
Hi!
-What's up, ladies?
-Welcome!
Yeah, dude!
-What's up, guys?
-It's time.
Welcome to the third season
of Love is Blind: Brazil!
That's right. Welcome.
My dear, look.
So many attractive people.
Too bad that means nothing
here on Love is Blind,
until you prove otherwise.
I wanted to do this experiment...
NUTRITIONIST
...because I wanted deeper connections.
You get to know
who people really are inside.
As a woman with a disability,
I'm used to judgment.
I'm about to cry.
I've been judged my entire life.
I've gotten looks, comments.
So, it's complicated,
but it made me the strong woman that I am.
You will have multiple blind dates
with multiple people.
The only thing
you'll know about each other
are your voices.
I won't be able to see
their physical characteristics.
PUBLICIST
A million things go through your head.
I'm a light-skinned Black woman.
If I have kids with a white person,
people will think I'm the nanny.
If the connection is real,
then it's time to propose
or receive
that so-coveted marriage proposal.
You'll meet in person,
and then go on a dream honeymoon
in one of the most
beautiful places in the world,
Pipa Beach in Rio Grande do Norte.
Sounds good, right?
What the hell?
Being here, you know
you're going to get married.
PHYSICAL EDUCATOR
You're going to find a person
to live the rest of your life with.
I hope we have
a heart and soul connection.
That's crucial.
Does blind love lead to marriage?
Absolutely.
Yes!
-We hope so.
-We hope so.
All right, let's go.
The pods are open for you.
-Thank you!
-Let's go. Get excited!
I'll leave it up to the universe...
ENTREPRENEUR AND JOURNALIST
...but it could be the time.
It's time to find my wife.
FIRST DAY OF THE EXPERIMENT
Oh my God, let's get married.
I hope the man of my dreams is here.
Oh God.
Let's do this!
My God, my heart.
What a dream!
How pretty!
-Hello?
-Who's there?
-It's Edu.
-Hi, Edu!
-My heart is racing.
-Oh my God.
This is crazy.
Getting married is a dream of mine.
I yearn to have someone by my side.
Someone I can evolve with.
I've been asking the universe
for the right person for a long time.
I wasn't expecting someone so romantic.
MARKETING COORDINATOR
This is crazy.
Next!
ENGINEER
-Hi.
-Hi.
-Hi there.
-Hey!
-How are you?
-I'm so good.
-Are you having fun?
-I am so happy.
It's crazy. This is so cool.
I am so happy to be doing this.
SALES MANAGER
-Tell me your name.
-Gabi.
Gabi.
-Carolina Pinto.
-I'm Patricia.
-Karen.
-Maria Carolina.
I already love you.
-Why?
-I'll tell you.
Maria is the name of my amazing,
incredible, and perfect mother.
-Mine too.
-What?
-Maria Silvia.
-No way.
Mine is Maria Helena.
-What's your name?
-Valmir.
-Valmir.
-But don't worry.
But don't worry, despite my name,
I am not 80. I know.
I'm not an elderly man, okay?
"I'm not an elderly man." That's so...
What a vibe. What energy.
He came on strong. Like a giant.
LAWYER
I got my name from my grandfather.
I'm a third-generation Valmir.
-My dad is Mário, and my brother is Mário.
-Thank you.
-That's it.
-Now, imagine this.
Your brother tells you,
"I'm going to name
my kid Mário the Fourth."
I don't have to imagine. He wants that!
Let me tell you something, Karen.
I want to, too.
Is he serious?
Where are you from?
I'm from São Paulo and I live in Santos.
What?
I'm from Santos, but I live in São Paulo.
That's unreal.
Straight out of Santos to the pods.
It's showtime.
When people see me,
they see a chubby white boy with blue eyes
and they think, "What a grandma's boy."
And they're right. I am.
I have a 99-year-old grandma
who will be at the wedding.
She'll be the ring bearer.
I came here to get married.
I prepared, I read books,
all to be here and give it my best shot.
He's a lion. He's a machine.
Dude's in your ear like,
"Goddamn. Hold on tight."
The hardest thing in life
isn't having the best car, house, or job.
It's being able
to find the woman to grow old with.
It's not just about material goods.
-Yes.
-It's about love, affection, faithfulness.
Someone to talk to. A partner.
My heart is like...
Oh, God.
He got to me.
I mean that from the heart.
I'm sharing this with you
because I like your voice, your vibe.
I didn't say that to the others.
Only to a person I really want to hear it.
I feel so special.
Oh my God. What a charmer!
He'll ruin my life.
My parents have been married for 36 years.
I have that example of partnership,
of communication, of unity, of fidelity.
I want to be a couple like my parents are.
At my house, every weekend
my dad brings my mom flowers.
-Oh my God.
-I bring my grandma flowers.
-She's 99.
-Oh my God.
-Some women find that outdated.
-No.
They think...
-I like some old-fashioned things.
-Me too.
I like when men walk
between me and the road on the sidewalk.
I like to be protected.
I call my last few relationships
"mini breakdowns."
A mix of being lonely
and not having anything to do.
Basically that. Not great.
ENTREPRENEUR
My name is Maria Carolina. I'm 29.
I'm looking for a guy who will
embrace me, my family, my dreams.
A guy who will and dream with me
and let me dream with him.
You were talking
about your parents' marriage.
-Dude, even now, my dad brings me coffee...
-Holy shit.
...and another one for my mother,
every single morning of our lives.
And...
Wow, I'm getting
choked up talking about him.
I'm not tooting my own horn,
but they raised
one hell of a woman.
Shit, Maria. Listen.
I like you a lot.
-Me too.
-You're my number one.
-You're mine too.
-Easy.
-Easy.
-I wanna talk to you again.
I liked our chat.
Perfect.
He seems really interesting.
I hope I'm the only one who liked him.
I really liked talking to Valmir today.
The butterflies I'm feeling are new.
The only thing I have to do now
is follow my heart.
I'll try to listen to my brain too.
I think Maria got to me the most.
Maria...
I don't know.
We had a really strong connection.
I hope I can talk to her again.
WOMEN'S LOUNGE
-Are you married yet?
-We are!
-She's in love!
-How great!
Who are your favorites? Quick!
I think everyone is feeling euphoric.
We're all excited
to meet someone cool and trade notes.
No one is wondering
if there will be drama.
Has anyone made you go...
-Valmir.
-She liked him too.
-Valmir.
-Look at all the girls and Valmir.
Valmir Reis, I liked him.
Wow, Valmir. You're good, huh?
PUBLICIST
Valmir is a great guy.
We made plans to go see the snow.
There was some gossip in the lounge.
I didn't hear much of it.
Honestly, I didn't want to hear it.
Girls, Valmir is interesting.
He said he wanted to marry me now.
-Now!
-He said the same thing to everyone.
-Valmir Reis?
-Delete Valmir.
A lot of the girls liked Valmir.
He's either a smooth talker
or he really is an interesting guy.
Valmir is a shameless player.
He's a womanizer.
I thought, "No, thanks.
I'm done with him."
He wants to be everyone's favorite.
He said the same things to everyone.
-It won't end well.
-It won't end well.
-Hi.
-Hi. How are you?
You sound like
you're smiling. I like that.
-What's your name?
-I'm Menandro.
Maria Carolina.
Where do you live?
I live in São Paulo.
Where?
-Perdizes.
-Wow!
That's next to my second home.
You're a Palmeiras fan?
I am. Why?
-Because I am.
-Great! We both are.
Her heart is green. How about that?
Uh oh. Three stars!
BUSINESS OWNER
Man, that was really surreal.
My ideal woman is respectful,
affectionate, and caring.
I expect to leave here
married to someone special.
I want that.
I didn't come with a strategy.
I'm just gonna be me.
She's gotta like me for being Menandro.
For my essence, my heart,
and what I'm saying.
It's all sincere.
What do you do, Maria?
I own an artisanal bag store.
I own a store too.
I sell construction materials.
Did you start it?
You had that entrepreneurial spirit early?
-Yes.
-Amazing. I love business too.
I was 19 when we opened.
Of course, my parents helped.
But it was my idea.
I just decided it would work.
-I knew God would bless me.
-Yeah.
-Are you a family man?
-I am.
My parents have
been together for 33 years.
-Yes.
-And I have a six-year-old daughter.
What's her name? Sorry.
-Helena Rosa.
-That's beautiful.
Helena Rosa is my princess. She's cute.
Do you get along with her mom?
Do you have a stable relationship?
We're totally chill.
We were only together for less than...
She got pregnant within months.
We parted ways after Lelê was born.
Do you want
more kids in your future marriage?
Or are you closed for business?
Not at all. I want to have more kids.
-My dream is to have a boy.
-I want a boy.
-Oh, hey! Another star.
-It's my dream.
Only God can stop me.
I don't know your religion,
but I'm Catholic.
I grew up in the Church.
My dad was a minister.
-My mom was a catechist.
-My dad is a pastor.
A blessed family.
-You're really cool.
-You too.
-I really like you.
-I like you too. Your vibe is good.
-Yes.
-We're similar. I drew two stars here.
I like to hear that I'm getting stars,
because I put
a little heart by his name, too.
-I'd really like to talk to you.
-Me too.
Let's do it.
I want to know more about you.
-Thanks. Bye.
-See ya.
-Bye-bye.
-Bye.
This is so hard!
They're all cool.
I really related to Maria.
I fell in love immediately.
MEN'S LOUNGE
He and I fell for the same girl.
-We almost fought.
-Yeah.
-I said, "Maria?"
-Don't mess with me.
I wanted to beat him up.
I'm hugging this guy,
knowing that he might like the same girl.
I think it's really weird.
It's really going to mess with my head.
I only had eyes for Maria.
Maria, my number one.
Hey, they were fighting.
-Really? I'll stay out of it.
-Him and Valmir.
-It's drama.
-Things will get ugly.
In this first round, I talked
to all 16 girls. One after the other.
-If you invite me to watch a game, I will.
-Of course I will.
-You'll come with me.
-I will.
-I like that.
-Awesome.
I liked talking with you.
We have a lot in common.
But Maria was on another level.
Now, I don't know what I'll do.
Hi. What's your name?
-Bianca.
-Jarbas.
-What do you do?
-I'm a nutritionist, Jarbas.
I found my nutritionist.
If you pay well, why not?
-Let's do some business.
-You'd charge your husband?
-What? You're already proposing?
-Uh oh!
Are you? That's it? It's done?
-Let's do it, then. Done.
-Let's go.
My ideal relationship
is with someone
who respects me as a woman.
I've had really hard experiences
where the guy wanted
to control how I looked and talked.
I've been told, "You're pretty,
but you'd be prettier if you were skinny."
I can't put up with things like that.
I know what I came here to find.
What do you do?
I'm a bookkeeper,
and I have a children's clothing business.
-That's cool. I have a son.
-You do?
You can give me fashion tips.
-There you go. We can do a trade.
-Exactly.
My name is Jarbas, and I'm 31 years old.
I'm a very emotional and intense person.
Even if it's just casual,
I post our pictures on my social media.
I fall in love fast.
I dive in. I don't care what others think.
I care how I feel.
-How old is your son?
-He's six.
-I have a two-year-old daughter.
-She's just a baby.
-She's not mine biologically.
-Okay.
It still counts.
Sometimes guys go,
"A single mom trying
to find her son a dad."
-I think most men have that prejudice.
-No, I'm not looking for that.
About single women with kids.
I'm not looking for a father for my son.
I'm looking for a life partner.
Do you want to have more kids?
It depends on what happens moving forward.
It has to be planned.
Maybe the love of my life is here,
and his dream is to be a father.
-My dream is to be a dad. Shall we?
-Okay.
I'm here to get married.
I'm going to leave here married.
Are you jealous in relationships?
I have a healthy kind of jealousy.
I'll talk it out.
Or if you give me
a reason to be. But I'm not crazy.
One thing that won't work for me anymore
is a toxic and abusive relationship.
-Definitely.
-No way.
-A guy wanting to control what I wear.
-There's no way.
-Or the way I talk. Exactly.
-We're not objects.
I'll tell you, I do not like jealousy.
-Me neither.
-I don't like it.
I loved meeting you.
I'm putting three stars here.
-Can I put four?
-Yeah.
I'm over the limit, but that's fine.
-Thanks, Bianca. Bye.
-Thanks, Jarbas.
-Talk to you tomorrow.
-Bye.
I really liked talking to her,
and I want to talk more
to get to know her essence better.
Guys, this group is lit. What the hell?
I'd marry all of them.
-Hi.
-How are you?
-I'm good. You?
-I'm good.
What's your name?
-You talk so fast.
-Sorry.
What's your name?
It's not about talking quieter.
It's about talking less, like...
Talking slower.
-Hi. How are you?
-Hey.
-I'm good. You?
-I'm great.
-What's your name?
-Jarbas.
Jarbas.
I won't ask your last name,
because there can only be one of you.
What do you like to do
when you aren't working?
That's a complex question.
Do you go to the beach or stay home?
That's such a hard question.
It depends on my mood.
-I love to travel.
-Awesome.
I always try to get to the beach.
I love to roast in the sun.
-Go sunbathing.
-Lie around having drinks.
Last year I went backpacking to...
I've been on a lot of trips... a few trips
based around beaches.
That's my favorite thing to do.
Do you play any sports or anything?
I do weight training.
Do you do any physical activity?
I go to the gym too.
-It's been...
-I started doing it this year.
Some are harder to talk to than others.
But I'm a down-to-earth guy,
so before moving,
I like to know
what my next step should be.
To our first day!
I was raised having deep conversations.
Things with me aren't superficial.
CONTRACT ANALYST
It's either all of me or none of me.
I want someone who is a good person.
I want to admire them.
Like, "I admire you."
SECOND DAY OF THE EXPERIMENT
I am expecting to reinforce
those connections I made yesterday.
More profound conversations
about things I want to know.
-Hello.
-Hi.
-Who's that?
-Bianca.
-Bianca. How are you?
-Who's that?
-It's Jarbas.
-Hey!
-How are you?
-I'm happy to talk to you again.
-How nice.
-I had a dream about you.
-Really?
-I did.
-Was it a good dream?
-It was not, Jarbas.
I dreamt you left the show,
and I was so upset.
-Really?
-I swear.
You think I'd give up on you?
-I hope not.
-Of course not.
-You're high up on my list of favorites.
-You are, too.
Way up high. On the podium.
-The podium?
-The podium.
You're at the top, too.
I really like Bianca.
She's really extroverted
and communicative.
She has baggage, too.
We both have children.
For Sophia's mother,
would getting married...
Do you think she would be pissed off?
-Would it change things?
-I don't think so.
She moved on. She's dating someone.
-She's got her life.
-Okay.
I think, for me,
I can move on and it will be fine.
I met her on a dating app.
She was three months pregnant.
We started dating,
and I was with her
throughout the entire pregnancy and birth.
She doesn't have my DNA,
but she has my love.
Yeah. A father is who raises the child.
That Jarbas has this connection
with a non-biological daughter
tells me that he is
very resolved in his decisions.
He has a lot of character.
He gained a lot of points.
He seems like an incredible guy
and an exceptional father.
If we happened to get married
and got along great,
I'd want to be part of Sophia's life.
I would also like you
to be present in Klaus' life.
You gained points there.
We have to be involved,
because it's forever.
These family questions,
and personal questions... we're in sync.
These conversations make me feel
like we're really getting more connected.
-I'm gonna knock the screen down.
-Let's do it.
-Should we hug? Quick.
-Let's do it.
-To embarrass my mom.
-Hug the screen.
-I'm hugging it.
-Me too.
I didn't want to leave the pod.
I wanted more time to talk.
I'm really in love with that boy.
She made it clear that I'm her number one.
That made me really happy.
It's an unreal connection.
-Can I get a "hello?"
-Hello.
Hearing someone's voice
and having to figure out
who they really are,
is a really different experience.
I'm excited to talk
to one person in particular.
Who is this?
-Who are you?
-Valmir.
Oh my God.
What?
Is that bad?
-No, it's great.
-Why?
Because I missed you.
I missed you.
That's so great,
because I fell asleep thinking about you.
I didn't think it was me,
based on what I heard in the lounge.
It did cross my mind that Valmir
didn't know who he was talking to.
You know what I think?
I think you've been falling asleep
thinking about a lot of people.
I learned how he acts from the gossip.
I call it "informative gossip."
I am informed.
I don't know who this is,
but I want to make something clear.
I didn't come here to toy with people.
All I've done until now is being honest.
Yesterday, we only had
ten minutes to do that.
In ten minutes, I had to
open myself up some to certain people.
And I opened up more to other people.
Today you're going to open up to me.
And who are you?
Maria.
Shit!
Fuck!
-I was really hoping it was you.
-Maria.
-You have no idea.
-I really was.
Maria really got to me
from the very beginning.
She's my top contender. My number one.
Who knows if I'm hers?
You were my number one yesterday, too.
I think you're great.
I want to get to know you better today,
make sure my intuition is correct.
So I can confirm
what I said in the lounge was correct.
I did the same thing.
There's another guy here
who's thinking about you.
I'm talking about Menandro.
I felt... fine
after my first date with Menandro.
I think that was because
I'm talking to
a lot of cool people at once.
-Do you know what I want to know?
-Tell me.
I asked about family yesterday.
I really like being there
for them on weekends,
I'd like to take my future spouse
to be with my family.
I want to know
if you're the type of guy
who likes that, and accepts it.
I'm extremely family-oriented.
To the point where my friends say,
"Come hang out with us.
You're always with family."
That level.
Valmir, you're so cute.
I relate to your values,
your way of being.
You're really affectionate.
You're funny.
You make me feel
something good that I can't explain.
Do I really like this guy?
I know you'll have
the chance to talk to other guys,
but in every pod I enter,
I'll be thinking of you,
longing for you.
In the same way that my dad found my mom,
I think I found you.
Oh my God, dude. I'm sweating.
-Valmir, I want to talk to you again.
-Maria, I need you.
I don't want to talk to anyone else.
Fuck me.
As much as
Valmir's eagerness made me happy,
my intuition still hasn't
let me say yes to him.
In the same way
that he will go talk to others,
I need to be sure.
Hi.
I liked that hi!
Hi, Menandro. It's Maria.
How are you today?
Last night was tough.
There's a lot to think about.
You were one of the people on my mind.
Watch out for Menandro.
It's not even like that.
I'm not spitting game.
I'm being genuine.
I think I need to learn
a bit more about Menandro.
I'm a little curious.
Do you still talk
to any of your exes?
-Only my daughter's mom.
-Yeah.
We'll always be in contact.
Is the fact that I'm a father
a problem for you?
It's not an issue for me.
I think having
a good relationship with the mother...
Her not getting jealous
of your daughter spending time with me...
The rest we'll take as it comes.
My daughter is my life.
Her having a relationship
with my daughter is essential.
That's fundamental
to any longevity.
Since my daughter was born,
it's been a problem, like,
"I'm seeing someone.
How will I introduce them to her?"
I just always freeze up.
My last relationship
was out of the ordinary,
because she didn't accept my daughter.
She didn't understand
my love for my daughter,
which is different from romantic love.
That's the last thing
I would feel competitive about.
Where do you see yourself in 30 years?
Almost a grandma.
God willing, still in my first marriage.
Knowing that I'm hearing the voice
of the person I might marry
is really intense.
Falling in love with a person's essence.
is what the world needs.
I'm really moved by you.
I'm, at least, starting to narrow down
my options.
Narrow them. Yeah.
So, I talked to Valmir.
He really liked
talking to you, and so did I.
Oh my God. What do we do, Maria?
I don't know what to do.
I don't know.
You've made me extremely confused.
I still can't say that he's the one,
but I didn't expect
him to make it into my one, two, three.
MEN'S LOUNGE
-Damn, dude.
-What's up?
-This is crazy.
-Amazing. What an experience.
-Who were you talking to?
-Just now? Maria.
-The last...
-And?
How was it?
The vibe in the lounge
is really intense. Very crazy.
We've already got these disputes.
-Look at his face.
-Come here.
Let me be real.
Did you have a great time with Maria? Yes.
Did I have a great time too? Yes.
-Because she's our number one.
-Totally.
So what's the deal?
I told her, "I think
about you morning and night."
"But feel comfortable
talking to other guys."
She said she didn't want to.
That's how we ended things.
-That was the vibe.
-Yes.
Then, she went and talked to you.
-Then what?
-Then what?
Then what?
Then what? We had our same connection.
She's still my number one.
Regardless of this.
He called me over
to intimidate me or something.
That's just how he is. I could tell.
I don't feel intimidated by him.
Not at all.
What do you want?
That's it. I said what I wanted.
You take it up with her.
Or not, because you just said
that it might just be the two of you now.
She probably said that to both of us.
No, she didn't.
Things might be different tomorrow.
-I'm being honest.
-Yeah.
-We don't play games here.
-Right.
But listen, she'll decide.
Absolutely.
There's drama brewing.
If I have to, I'll earn it.
THIRD DAY OF THE EXPERIMENT
Oh my God.
-Hey.
-Hi.
Bianca!
-It's Jarbas.
-I know.
-It's my husband.
-It is?
Your husband is here.
For me to fall in love,
all he has to say is, "I choose you."
Listen, for the honeymoon...
What are you expecting
from the first meeting? Kissing? Sex?
Touching?
-Connection?
-I think it's about surrendering.
It's a singular moment
for the couple, that first meeting.
So I'd say go all in, but no spoilers.
Let's see when the moment comes,
but I think that's how I feel.
Has anything strange
happened to you in bed?
Not off the top of my head. You?
No, but there are things I don't like.
Like when I notice a guy
forcing exaggerated facial expressions.
-Yeah.
-It bothers me.
I start thinking
about other things, like bills.
She doesn't hold back.
She says whatever comes to mind.
It should be natural.
-Yes, I think that...
-It's something...
It's the kiss, Jarbas,
that will tell us everything.
Yeah, the first kiss
tells you a lot about the person.
-God, I'm hot.
-Yeah.
I'm taking my shirt off.
-It's hot in here.
-Seriously, I swear.
-It's so hot in here.
-Jesus Christ.
It's crazy. We can't see each other,
but I want to kiss you so badly.
-Same.
-Really?
-Yeah.
-Seriously, I feel crazy.
There's chemistry between me and Jarbas.
I want to do it all.
She's really flirty. I am too.
I like when there's heat.
I'm kissing the screen.
-You are?
-Let's go.
-Are you really?
-Of course!
I'm not kissing your cheek.
You're my husband.
-Go.
-Bye.
I wanted to jump through the screen
to kiss him. I'll admit it.
We have a lot of qualities in common.
A lot of shared goals.
Every day, I'm more excited
to get to know more about her life.
Hi.
-What's up, baby?
-I missed you!
Just going into the pods
to talk to him, I start shaking all over.
There's a chest.
-There's a chest here?
-Yeah.
Oh my God.
She gave me a scrunchie
with her perfume on it.
Also, a stuffed animal and a card.
"May this new chapter in our story
be another brick
we use to build our castle."
"Here is a token, so you can keep me near
and remember my smell."
"Love, Bianca."
-So you can sleep with me.
-It has your scent.
I'm really anxious to meet her in person.
To hug her, and kiss her, and smell her.
So I don't have to rely on
the gift she gave me.
-Good morning, baby.
-Good morning, baby.
I've got your scrunchie around my wrist.
I sniff it all day long.
-I brought more things for you to sniff.
-Yeah?
In the chest?
-Yeah.
-Open yours too.
You smell so good!
Oh, wow.
Very sexy.
I fall more in love with her every day.
She's incredible. We have a lot in common.
I'M IN LOVE
Everything we talk about, we agree on.
We view life the same way.
My heart is racing. He really got to me.
It's beating fast.
I hope I exceed all of your expectations.
-Maybe that scares me.
-You already have exceeded them.
I'm scared
of you finding out
that I'm more than you thought
and different from what you're used to.
Wow, that was profound.
You might only understand
when you meet me.
I can tell that I've already changed
a lot from how I used to be.
I can see you for who you are,
and that's amazing to me.
I'm in love with your essence.
It's normal to wonder how a person looks,
but that won't change how I feel.
It won't change
my passion, my love. None of that.
It's just a human curiosity.
Love is blind.
Seeing her won't change my opinion,
because I'm in love with her essence.
-Are you still there?
-Just a sec.
-Wanna lie down next to the screen?
-Yeah.
-How nice.
-Oh my God.
How nice.
This guy is the love of my life.
I'm sure of it.
I've got a million expectations.
Don't let me down.
MEN'S LOUNGE
What's up? You good?
Are you upset?
I'm...
-A little upset.
-I don't know.
Menandro was crying in the bathroom today.
I took him aside.
We spent forever talking.
-I knew something was off.
-He was crying.
I got really sad when Valmir
told me he talked to Maria.
I think I missed my chance.
I got sad.
I'm waiting for her
to come talk to me,
so I can know if that's it.
If she's really Valmir's number one,
if that's what she wants,
and so I can understand
what she's thinking.
-Hi.
-Hi.
Is it who I think it is?
My God.
-Do you want a hint?
-What letter does it start with?
-M.
-Maria?
-Yeah.
-My God.
-What letter does your name start with?
-M.
-Mena?
-Yeah.
I don't believe it.
When I heard his voice...
There's just no explanation.
Thank God it's him.
I didn't want it to be anyone else.
I thought about you last night.
-No way.
-I did.
Don't say that.
I did.
He cried, and, like...
He's not afraid
to show that he's sensitive.
He's not afraid to be himself.
He's not scared
to give a relationship his all.
He's not afraid
that I'll think he's strong or weak.
That only makes me respect him more.
I can't believe it's you.
That's what I said the day before,
and she didn't say it back.
So I just crumbled, because we connected.
It, like, made me relieved.
Everything I had been
holding inside came out.
I only had love to give her after that.
-Maria. Let's hug.
-Yeah?
I'm hugging it.
This is really crazy. You know?
I do.
But since the first day,
from the first time we talked,
I left the pods like,
"Man, she's the one."
I relate to you in a way
that I can't explain.
-It's really crazy.
-I didn't think it was mutual.
How could you not?
-I don't want to talk to anyone else.
-I don't want to either.
Swear to God?
I can't believe it!
-I'm hugging you.
-I'm hugging you.
Do you smell good?
I do. I think I smell good.
-Me too.
-Yeah?
I'm really vain.
I am too. I'm really vain.
I'm really vain.
It might annoy you, but I am.
You'll never annoy me.
I'll only appreciate you.
I'm blushing.
This is crazy.
Menandro makes me ache right here.
Bizarre.
Everyone knew Valmir was
my number one on day one.
But I only heard bad things.
He told all my friends the same thing.
He's got a big fat mouth.
Maria was like...
There was some gossip in the lounge,
some gossip I never agreed with.
I'm excited to get to know Valmir more,
and understand more about him.
I never care about others' opinions.
Not out there or in here.
I wasn't sure yesterday,
but I went to bed thinking about it.
If I wanted to meet someone
who I could meet out on the street,
I'd be in my bedroom
looking on my phone right now.
-Exactly.
-I've got guys I could call.
I came here
looking for something different.
Yeah, the opposite. Exactly.
You know?
That's not what I came here for.
I came here to get married.
I don't need more of the same.
It weighed heavily that Valmir
talked to everyone the same way.
MEN'S LOUNGE
I've got something to tell you.
Here's the deal.
Maria just talked to a guy.
-Menandro.
-Menandro.
He came out of there really excited.
He was really happy.
Look at Menandro. He's so happy, man.
He's talking to everyone with so much joy.
It's like he's saying, "She's mine!"
I got really worried and upset.
So I thought, "I know
who I am and what I want."
"I'll get it."
I went over to Menandro.
-Hey, bro.
-Hey.
-We need to talk, man.
-Come on.
-Oh, sorry. How are you?
-It's just...
Valmir was a little agitated.
ATHLETE FITNESS COACH
-Okay.
-Finish talking.
God, I was like a rabid dog.
I wanted to understand,
I wanted to know what was happening.
I was champing at the bit.
I'm circling, and he's not talking to me.
Valmir, loosen up. Shit.
I'm relaxed.
I'm chill.
Sure you are.
I didn't avoid contact with Valmir,
but I didn't want any conflict.
I didn't come here to feud with anyone.
I came to be honest.
When I talked to her
in the pod just now, dude...
-And she...
-She gave you peace?
-She did.
-She helped you relax?
She did.
And she talked,
and she listened, and you talked.
And...
She has a top three.
Your top three and my top three...
is all her.
-But she doesn't know that.
-To be honest, she said that too.
What did she say?
That she doesn't
want to talk to other guys.
-I get it.
-That's why I was so happy.
I'm being really honest with you.
Fuck. I was floored.
I don't know if you'll talk to her,
or how that conversation will go.
But I left the pod with the intention that
we only want to talk to each other.
I still haven't given up on her.
So I'm gonna talk to her.
We'll have our moment.
And I'll root for everything to go well.
Hello.
Is that Valmir?
Yikes!
It is.
Yikes, Valmir.
Who's there?
Things are ugly for you out there.
Look. Listen to me.
-I'm listening.
-I only came here to get married.
I only came here
to find the love of my life.
To grow old together
and to make her the happiest woman alive.
I didn't come to cause trouble.
But now, every time I talk to a woman,
she says I'm sweet-talking everyone.
And I come in and you say,
"It's ugly out there for you."
-It's like...
-No.
-I'm fucked.
-It's gossip.
That's the thing. I hear gossip.
I don't know your name. You know mine.
My name is Maria.
Why the silence?
I thought you into me the first few days.
Then I found out
you were sweet-talking everyone.
Maria.
We're in a place
where we need to get to know people.
Do you want me to say
different things to each woman I talk to?
Or do you want me to be honest
and be the same person
with everyone I talk to?
But you can't say
exactly the same thing to everyone.
Exactly, Maria. And you were
the only one I could open my heart to.
You were the only one
I shared things with.
The only woman I've put
as number one since the beginning.
I'm not sure of that. Sorry.
So, listen to this.
Gossip isn't there to help you.
It fucks you over.
Gossip isn't advice.
Gossip is terrible.
Gossip is like,
"Don't look at him, girlfriend!"
And you've known her for two days.
"Look over there!"
Because she wants the same guy.
That's part of what this is.
It's part of the deal, this game.
Calm down. You're getting upset.
Why are you upset? Are you angry?
Calm down. Breathe.
It wasn't just what I heard,
but what I heard him say.
The tone that Valmir uses
also sets off the alarms for me
of an abusive relationship.
I need to speak.
If you've made
your decision, that's great.
But I need to speak, and I will speak.
I was sure you were
the woman I was going to ask to marry me.
That we would have
one hell of a story here on Love is Blind.
Well, Mena is my choice.
And...
that's it.
I wish you the best of luck.
Cool.
There was nothing I could do.
I lost her to myself.
You know?
-Bye.
-See ya.
It's over for me.
It's just over for me.
MEN'S LOUNGE
I've made my decision.
I want Bianca in my life.
I think she is the right person for me.
We have the same life goal.
I think that's really important to me.
We think the same way.
You don't sleep.
It's a whirlwind of thoughts
about how it will go.
Will we be able to
say everything we have to say?
But I think I'm ready
to bring her into my life,
and call her my bride.
Babe?
-Hi.
-How are you?
Good. And you?
You want it to end quickly so we can meet,
but you also want it to happen slowly
to live each minute, and each...
-Each moment.
-Yeah.
Did you choke up?
Hello?
Are you crying?
Why are you crying?
I'm sorry.
I'm emotional.
I planned a speech, but I was
so nervous I started crying immediately.
I can tell you that this experiment
is very real.
I fell in love with your essence.
I fell in love with your story.
I fell in love with the person you are.
I really believe we'll have
a beautiful life on the outside.
Me, you,
Klaus, and Sophia.
I'm sorry.
I'd like to read you something.
"Love is always patient."
"Always generous."
"And never jealous."
"Love is like the wind."
"I can't see it,
but I can feel it."
And on my knees,
I ask you...
Ana Bianca
de Almeida Sessa,
will you marry me?
Oh my God.
Yes, I will!
-Yes. A thousand times yes!
-Oh my God!
-I love you!
-I love you!
Mom, Dad, I'm getting married!
I'm engaged!
-I'm getting married!
-I'm engaged!
A thousand times yes.
I'll say it as many times as I have to.
I'm so happy. I shouted so much.
I'm hoarse.
God. It was incredible, guys.
It was better than expected.
A moment on par with the birth of my son,
which was the happiest time of my life.
-My fiancée!
-My fiancé!
We're engaged! We're getting married!
I'm ecstatic about this moment.
Today, I can say
that she's the love of my life.
I'll say yes to her on the altar.
I want to spend
the rest of my life with her.
Should I stay here or go there?
Who can sit at the brides' table now?
I'm getting married!
-Bianca!
-You're getting married!
Don't try to mess with us, bro.
-Don't try it.
-I'll throw a chair at you.
-She said no.
-You are a bad liar.
She fucking said no. She said no.
"No way could I live without you!"
Holy shit! Let's go!
To anyone I was talking to before,
I'm fucking retired!
Fuck yeah!
BIANCA AND JARBAS' FIRST MEETING
I'm nervous, really excited,
hopeful, happy.
It's a crazy mixture of feelings.
The excitement is high.
It's like I'm about to take a penalty kick
at the championship finals. It's...
It's like there's a stadium
of fans chanting, "Jarbas!"
Only one who's been through this
can understand how we feel.
Love really is blind. No question.
I'm head over heels for him.
I love Jarbas. He's the love of my life.
I think our connection will be unreal.
It will be incredible
to see and touch each other.
I slept well last night.
I dreamt I was meeting her.
In my dream, she had dark skin like me.
She had striking green eyes.
I kept looking at her eyes.
She was tall and really shy.
It was a really nice dream, knowing
I'll meet the love of my life today.
I don't fit the standards
that society imposes.
I'm a little chubby,
have a lot of tattoos,
and I have a disability.
So, of course, I get a little insecure.
Stay calm.
But if that thing opens,
and I don't get a good reaction...
It's his loss,
because I know I'm a hell of a woman.
ON SEASON THREE OF LOVE IS BLIND:
I said he's my number one.
-And he said?
-He said, "Same."
ON THE NEXT EPISODES
-What's wrong?
-She's sad.
I don't think your behavior,
being the last guy to talk to her,
was respectful to me.
-I'm engaged.
-I love you, baby!
IS THE CONNECTION
FROM THE PODS INTENSE AND TRUE?
I'm counting the minutes...
until we're there together.
OR FRAGILE AND DELICATE?
What could jeopardize this fairy tale?
I think it's really disrespectful
to embarrass your partner.
I think it's ridiculous.
Fuck you.
This conversation
isn't getting you anywhere.
CAN REAL LIFE HAVE SURPRISES?
He wants his woman
to be a modest housewife.
Sorry, I won't be his woman.
CAN THE PAST CHANGE THE FUTURE?
Some of his opinions aren't relative,
they're just unacceptable.
-Open your eyes.
-Wow, guys!
My mom didn't shed a single tear.
I liked the dress.
If she didn't, so be it.
WHAT EVERYONE WANTS TO KNOW...
We've finally arrived
at that long-awaited moment.
The time for our answers.
Does blind love lead to marriage?
I got the worst news of my life today.
