The Business (2013–2018): Season 3, Episode 7 - Concorrência Desleal - full transcript

The opening will be a big hit.
The club will be the same again.

To the club.

Would it work
if it happened now?

If we hadn't gone through
all of that if we had met today.

Augusto.
Have you met Karin?

Not until now.
Nice to meet you. Augusto.

I know you
better than anyone, Joana.

What's this? A boyfriend?

Didn't we agree to wait
for each other until I was rich?

Yes?

Is that your Woody outfit?
The Toy Story cowboy.



He's a clown, Luna.

What now, Zanini?

We're back together.
Dump your fiancé for me.

I'm sorry, I love you, monster.
You're my little Smeagol.

I want Leticia, so I'll have
to split up with Magali.

But I love Magali.

My husband found out that our son's
blood type doesn't match his.

He's your son.

O NEGOCIO
Season III

Episode 7
UNFAIR COMPETITION

Ariel Vidal and Eric Barbosa.

Eric. Good luck.

-What's that supposed to mean?
-I have no idea.

-What's that?
-We need a blood sample.



Why blood?
It's a paternity test.

Exactly, sir.
The lab needs a blood sample.

You're mistaken.
I saw it on the Internet.

You need to swab my mouth
for a DNA sample.

We only do that with kids.
We take blood samples from adults.

Why do kids have privileges?

Lots of kids
won't let us take blood samples.

That makes no sense. Kids are a hassle,
don't help with anything

and are treated better than us,
hard-working guys,

that pay for everything.

Are you scared of needles?

Of course not.
I just need it done properly.

-Would you like the lollipop?
-No, thanks.

Open up.

-Does it hurt?
-Not at all.

I'll have the needle, okay?

-Burschenschaft?
-Yes. Burschenschaft.

Several Brazilian presidents
were members.

Campos Salles, for example.
Washington Luis, Afonso Pena,

plus all the intellectuals. Ruy Barbosa,
Castro Alves, Alvares de Azevedo.

Do they still have
such important members?

They do, but it's hard to know
who the members are.

-They're very mysterious.
-And we're very discreet.

That's why they want
to hire our services.

We'll make a lot of money
if we close the deal.

Great.

Yes, but first, me and Ariel
need to be cleared by them.

-That's the condition.
-You will be cleared.

I hope so, we need to pass
the initiation ritual.

What kind of initiation?

No idea, they just said
we need to be brave.

You'll be fine.

You're being so optimistic.
It's Augusto, isn't it?

Isn't it good to be optimistic
once in a while?

-Yes, I guess so.
-Things are finally working out for me.

I think we'll start dating again.

Look what daddy has for you.

You love your little car, don't you?
Come here, baby.

Hi there, my love!
Playing with daddy, are you?

-Hi.
-Hi.

How was your day?

Remember the
Ribeirăo Preto account?

We got it.

-Really?
-Yes.

-Good for you.
-Thanks.

-And you? Is everything okay?
-Well... we need to talk.

-Are you sure?
-I am.

-It's not working, Flavia.
-I know.

I thought we'd make it work,

but I won't try to stop you,
let's think about our son.

And keep the divorce
as friendly as possible.

Who's the craziest person
you've ever met?

The craziest person
I've ever met is Zé Ovo.

-Zé Ovo?
-Yes, he thinks he's an egg.

-How could he think he's an egg?
-He just thought that.

Did he just stand there
and not talk all day?

No, he walked and talked normally.
He helped us with our farm animals.

-Eggs don't move or talk.
-Luna, he's not an egg.

I know, but why does he think
he's an egg if he's normal?

He isn't normal, he's Zé Ovo.

Who's the craziest person
you ever met?

-Oscar.
-Oscar?

Think about it, Magali.

I supported him, but he wanted
to make his own money.

So what did he do?
Lost my money.

Then, he started teaching people
how to make money,

and lost even more money.
And that's not all.

He dumped me saying that was
the only way to stay together.

Then he found out I was dating someone,
tried to ruin my relationship,

not to get back together,
but to keep us apart.

He's crazier than Zé Ovo.

Luna is totally crazy.

How can she date that jerk?
They have nothing in common.

That's her problem, though.
I've had it with Luna.

She can grow tangerines
for the rest of her life.

At least you know
what to expect from Zé Ovo.

He's an egg, but not Oscar.
He's unpredictable.

You never know what he's up to.

But one thing about Oscar
never changed.

-What's that?
-He's crazy about you.

Yeah. Right.

How are you and Zanini doing?

We're back together, finally.
I love my little Nosferatu.

How nice, Magali.

Yes, I think this is
our best moment together.

-I stole a kiss.
-Give it back, you thief.

-What if I don't?
-I'll rob one too.

You will? Show me how.

-You know what we can do?
-What?

Go over to your place
and watch a movie together.

We can't go to my place. My cleaning
lady hasn't been there in days.

I can't let you see the mess.

-Zanini.
-What?

-What are you hiding?
-Who, me? I'm not hiding anything.

There's always some excuse.

You're either painting,
spraying, now it's a mess.

Why don't you want me
to go to your place?

I do want you to go.
You just can't yet.

When can I?

Next week. I promise.
Next week, definitely.

-You promise?
-I promise. Come here.

-I robbed another kiss.
-You did?

Zanini is as loyal as a Beagle.
He'd even fetch a bone for me.

He'll complain, but he will.
I just love my monster.

You're lucky you found him.

-Hi, Mom.
-Hi honey. I need a favor.

Sure.

I'm meeting some friends
from college, in Săo Paulo.

I want to be there a few days early,
to get a dress and see you.

-Can I stay with you?
-Sure. When are you coming?

-The day after tomorrow.
-It'll be great.

-I'll call you when I get there.
-Okay. Bye.

I have to meet a new client.
He's paying the emergency fee.

I know how you can
dump Luna and get rich.

-How?
-Shooting Rinaldi's video together.

There has to be a good role
for you.

You want to watch porn together
and now film porn together?

Don't you want to get rich
and forget Luna?

Thanks, Yuri.
Don't worry about me.

Have it your way.

That's Rinaldi. We start today.
Want to come?

No, I need to work
on my conference.

-Ready?
-Yes.

Before we start
you must promise me something.

What?

No sex or masturbating
while you're training.

-Sure.
-You have to follow the rules.

If you can't,
I'll call off the whole thing.

-I promise.
-Are you sure?

-I promise.
-Let's go then.

-I need to tell you something.
-Sure, anything you want.

You are the first woman
I'm having sex with after my wife died,

and I'm a little nervous.

There's nothing
to be nervous about.

I don't know why I feel guilty.
It's like I'm cheating on her.

Of course not, Claudio.
Life goes on.

Would she want you to be lonely forever?
Or for you to be happy?

Happy, I think, but even so...
I don't know if I can.

Leave it up to me.
I'll help you.

What do I do, my friend?
For God's sake.

I can't take Leticia home.
Magali lives there.

The right thing is to dump Leticia. But
I can't. She dumped her fiancé for me.

I'm in a dead end alley.

On a plane on fire.
In third class on the Titanic.

Damn it!

That's it! I'm not dumping her.
I'll make her dump me.

Make her dump me
without knowing I did it.

It's perfect, perfect!

I just saved the Titanic.

-You should've told me, Augusto.
-We're getting divorced, anyway.

It doesn't matter.
You should've told me.

I wanted to tell you
after it was done.

After I moved out and finalized
the divorce. That's what I did.

-I want to be with you, Joana.
-I want to be with you too.

Are you sure
it's what you want?

Yes.

-What if you regret it?
-I won't.

I thought we had met again
at the right time.

-This is the right time.
-It doesn't seem so.

-But it is.
-I need to think about it.

We need to think about it.

What's the most important organ
in a man's body, Yuri?

-The penis?
-No.

-The brain?
-No.

The heart?

-A woman.
-A woman?

A woman. The female body
is an extension of the male body.

Female breasts, for example.

Their breasts aren't theirs.
They are ours.

You need to know them
just like you know your penis.

I, for example,

can guess the color, and the shape of
any woman's nipples and areolas,

just by looking at her.

No way.

Pick out a woman. Any woman.

Pietra. Come here, please.

-Have you dated him?
-No.

He says he can guess
the shape of your nipples.

Cylindrical.
Dark brown. Large areolas.

-Is he right?
-How did you know? Pure luck, right?

Call your girlfriends.

Cone-shaped, light pink.
Small areolas.

Pointed.
Beige. Medium areolas.

Almost flat. Almost her skin color.
Areolas the size of a silver dollar.

-How do you do it?
-You need to watch carefully.

-Watch what?
-Everything.

You need to see
if the woman has freckles,

the color of her eyelids,
her lips, her cheeks.

Everything is connected
with the nipples.

Nipples are more expressive
than the eyes.

That's why the Mona Lisa
is such a shitty painting.

He was divorced yesterday
and he has a kid.

I'm scared it won't work again.
I don't know what to do.

-You should follow your heart.
-I think Cesar has mental issues.

-I'm serious, Ariel.
-That's what worries me.

I'm calling it a day.

There's Burschenschaft tomorrow.
You should rest too.

-Let's go home.
-Yes.

-Call me if you need me.
-I will.

The day my mom was coming, the first
thing I did was to hide a few items.

I couldn't let my mom
discover my little secret.

-Hi, Mom!
-Hi, honey.

I'm glad we're spending
a few days together.

-You don't mind?
-Of course not, Mom.

I never thought that a few hours later
I'd discover her little secret.

This is great.

Magali didn't imagine either, that her
widower client also has a little secret.

-Thanks for seeing me again today.
-I'm glad it worked out the other day.

-You made me feel alive.
-That's my job.

If you keep helping me, I might be able
to deal with my wife's death.

I'll keep helping you
and you will move on.

-Are you ready to see Zanini's loft?
-Yes. Finally.

While I hid my secret from my mom,
she hid her secret from me,

and Magali's widower client
hid his secret from her,

Zanini hid his secret
from everybody.

A friend who was out of town
lent him his place,

and he said his own place
was flooded.

Welcome home, Leticia.

And Karin,
after thinking about it a lot,

decided she didn't want
any more secrets in her life.

I want to be with you, Augusto.
But on one condition.

-Okay.
-I'm keeping my club.

And I'm building a brothel downtown.
I'll never hide my past again.

I'll never hide anything from anyone.
And you need to accept that.

Joana,
I'm on your side.

I want to be there for you.

-I didn't expect that from him.
-Me neither, Dad.

-Where did he go?
-To that woman's place.

-Who is she? Do you know her?
-No, I don't. All I know is her name.

Give it to me, and I'll have someone
run a background check.

You need to know who
your son's moving in with.

Thanks, Dad.

Hello, Ruy. It's me. I need
to keep it low, I'm at my daughter's.

I want to see you too.

Take it easy, Ruy. Behave!

Yes, I'll be there.
I have to go now. Love you.

I was in love with Ruy in college.
He was in love with me too.

But he... He was so wild.
Totally unpredictable.

I never knew what he wanted
to do the next day.

But then I met your dad.
And you know the rest.

Your dad is the sweetest,
most honest and reliable man ever.

I had to choose,
and I chose your dad.

-Any regrets?
-No, of course not.

But when I found Ruy online,
I was interested.

And you decided to meet
here in Săo Paulo?

Just to have dinner.
It's been 30 years, now.

It's not just dinner, right?

-You wanna know the truth?
-I do.

I don't know yet.

Zanini had a secret
he wanted Leticia to discover.

Actually, a fake secret.

The real secret is that
he made up this secret,

so Leticia would find out
and dump him.

Can I take a shower?

Sure, there are towels
in the bathroom.

This was in the shower.
A bag with hairs. What's this?

My God! I can't believe I forgot that.
Just forget you saw it, okay?

No, Zanini. What is this?

-You don't want to know.
-You're scaring me.

-Don't be scared. Just forget about it.
-I can't just forget it. What is it?

-You really want to know?
-Yes.

Sit down.

I have a problem. I've been collecting
my hair since I was 14.

What for?

My body's like
a kind of hair plantation.

I let them grow
so I can harvest them.

I collect all of them, my beard,
pubic hair, all the hair on my head.

-Seriously?
-You shouldn't have seen it.

Sorry, I'm a little scared here.
This is so weird.

I know how you feel, Leticia.
But think about it,

it would be weird to throw away
a part of yourself. That's weird.

I need to go.

I swear on my honor,
never to reveal to anyone,

whatever I am entrusted
with today.

I swear on my honor
never to reveal to anyone,

whatever I am entrusted
with today.

I shall be the greatest villain alive,
if I were to break my oath.

I shall be the greatest villain alive,
if I were to break my oath.

Okay, you've taken the oath.
I hope you're approved.

When I saw your club,
I said to myself,

the Burschenschaft needs
to make a deal with them.

And now that deal
is totally up to you.

Come on, Alvaro,
what else do we need to do,

apart from wearing
these ridiculous robes?

First, you need to cross
the hall of darkness,

and perform
the ritual of purification.

Then, the Grand Master
will tell you what to do.

-Where is that hall of darkness?
-This way.

Where does this go?

You need to trust the hallway
to take you to the right place.

Good luck.

-Did you have to say ridiculous?
-Aren't they?

-Okay. Let's do this.
-You first, girl.

I'll save you
if anything happens to you.

Who's going to save me
if anything happens?

-Are you scared, Ariel?
-Of course not. Are you crazy?

-So let's go together.
-Okay. Okay.

Can you believe Mom's getting
new clothes to go out with him? My mom!

-Moms have sex too, Luna.
-I never thought about it.

She spent her entire life wondering
if she made the right decision.

You saw my new client. Unlike your mom,
he never had a doubt.

He loved his wife so much that after
she died, he couldn't have sex.

He's doing it with me,
but feels guilty.

Will I regret dumping Oscar?

Move it, Cesar.
Let's get this done.

Okay.
Right here.

In this part of your training

you'll learn to control the blood
flowing to your bodily cavities.

That means having an erection
any time you want.

Look around you.

-Now, get an erection.
-What?

Get it up, right now!

Come on, kid. Get it up already.
Now. Come on.

I can't get it up
without a pretty girl around.

What pretty girl?

There was this English painter,
who only had sex with old ugly women.

-Do you know why?
-No.

Because pretty ladies
are only for unimaginative guys.

Stop trying to be aroused by external
objects. Desire is inside of you.

You control
when you want to be aroused,

not the world,
not fate, just you.

Look over there.
See the old man?

Concentrate.
Forget everything else.

Imagine that the old man
is a naked woman.

A beautiful,
totally naked woman.

The initiation is over.
You have been cleansed.

Now, you need to die, in order
to be born again as Burschenschaft.

You mean symbolically, right?
Am I mistaken?

Your funeral is tomorrow night.

Bring eulogies
with the history of your lives.

Imagine that you lived
very long lives,

with no contact whatsoever
with the Burschenschaft.

Everything you did.
What you left behind.

All your fears.
Tell us everything.

At your funeral, you will read
your eulogies aloud.

Be honest.
Or risk being rejected.

Congratulations, Yuri.
You did well today.

Thanks.

-See you tomorrow. Bye.
-Bye.

-Yuri.
-Yes?

Remember, no sex,
no playing with yourself.

Yuri made a huge effort
not to masturbate that night.

But he failed.

-Your ties go here, okay?
-Okay.

This is your drawer.

-For my collection. You look nice.
-Show me.

It's for you.

-Hello, Flavia.
-We need to talk. It's urgent.

-Is something important?
-I'll tell you here.

Mom, have you seen my charger?

Don't you have a dinner date?
You're dressed already?

No, I'm just trying this.

-It doesn't suit me, right?
-It does suit you. It's nice.

You think so?

I'm so nervous.

I'd change the shoes.

-You think?
-Yes. You need them higher.

-You're looking great.
-I'm getting better and better.

-I can see that.
-Come here.

-Again?
-What did Saint-Exupéry say?

"You're eternally responsible
for the guy you turn on."

My bag of hairs
was the greatest idea ever.

I invented the perfect way
to end a relationship.

I could even get a patent,
sell it online.

"End your relationship now,

without the guilt, the tears,
and all the heartbreak.

Get your Zanini's bag of hairs."

I had a girl in senior high,
who said I was a genius.

She was right.
I'm a genius.

Hello.

A psychiatrist friend of my dad
can help you with your problem.

That's not necessary. I'm fine.

You need therapy.
I made an appointment for you.

No, thanks.

You're going and you're
solving your problem.

That won't solve anything.
I've tried.

You have to try, Zanini.
I'll help you.

-But Leticia...
-Trust me, you'll be fine.

-You think so?
-I am positive.

-Love you.
-I love you too. I have to go. Bye.

I'm screwed.
On top of not ending it,

I have to be treated
for something I don't have.

I forgot to mention
that my high school girlfriend,

couldn't have ice-cream
without soiling her ears.

"Cesar Moritz leaves behind a husband,
a sibling and five nephews.

In spite of his faults, he hopes
to be missed and remembered fondly."

-That's it?
-Yes.

What a crappy life, Cesar.

If that's the life you want,
you better drop dead.

Okay, Ariel. Now read yours.

"Businessman Ariel Vidal
passed away today at home,

after having sex with four models.
He was 115 years old.

During his lifetime,

he won the affection and admiration of
all those he shared his time with.

To guarantee the privacy and comfort,
of his numerous relatives and friends,

his burial, unlike the wake
will be closed to the general public."

Just one thing, Ariel.
Aren't you supposed to be honest?

-I'm not being honest?
-Are you?

-Sure.
-Fine, have it your way.

Can I continue?

Hey, there.
What's today's class?

It's over.
Stay away from me.

But why? What did I do?

You know what you did.
I know what you did.

I thought you'd be my heir.
But I was wrong.

You can't control your dick.
Go away! Go away! Scram!

So, what if she was a hooker?
What difference does it make?

People will talk behind my back.
They will be shocked.

They'll laugh at me,
feel sorry for me,

say I suck in bed,
I'll be hummiliated.

Since when do you care
what those idiots think?

Since they think
I'm more of an idiot than them.

-That's ridiculous.
-You know what's ridiculous?

Thinking I'll let my son
live with some hooker.

Brush his teeth, tuck him in bed,
take him to school, that's ridiculous.

-Flavia, Joana is a good person.
-I don't care.

-I'm calling off the divorce.
-That's not your decision.

No?

If you stay with her,

I will use my dad's law firm
to keep you away from our son.

-You wouldn't do that.
-I would.

Either go pay that hooker
and return home,

or you'll only see your son
once a month,

for fifteen minutes
in supervised visits.

It's up to you.

Thanks for the lift.

I took my mom, so I could see
the guy she was meeting.

-You need to drink this.
-What is this?

It helps with the initiation,

by making the experience
seem much more intense.

I don't need more intensity.
It's fine like this.

It's part of the ritual.
Drink, please.

More than an hour later, my mom
was still sitting alone at the table.

I told you he's unpredictable.

We'd like the best white wine you have.
Thanks.

It's been a while since
the two of us went out.

-Yes. I missed that.
-Me too.

-Did he call you?
-No. He switched his phone off.

-What a jerk.
-Yes.

-Let's have moules-frites.
-Good idea.

"And thus lived Ariel Vidal, living life
to the fullest with almost no regrets."

-You insult the Burschenschaft.
-Me?

In 200 years,

the walls of this cellar have never
seen such fear of speaking the truth,

so much shame to look at yourself.
So much cowardice.

-What? You're exaggerating.
-Silence!

You have one more chance.
Speak the truth.

-How does Ariel Vidal die?
-I told you...

How does Ariel Vidal die?

How does Ariel Vidal die?

-Okay.
-How does Ariel Vidal die?

-That's enough.
-How does Ariel Vidal die?

-Coward!
-How does Ariel Vidal die?

-Liar!
-How does Ariel Vidal die?

-Coward!
-How does Ariel Vidal die?

-Liar.
-How does Ariel Vidal die?

-Coward!
-How does Ariel Vidal die?

-Liar!
-How does Ariel Vidal die?

How does Ariel Vidal die?

Alone.
With no family.

With no friends.

He was found in an advanced
stage of decomposition,

next to several empty bottles,

by a lady who cleaned his house
every two weeks.

Nobody is going to his funeral.

The next day, Yuri decided to prove
he could control his penis.

That he could get turned on
or not, whenever he wanted.

So, he started imagining
everywhere he went,

the person he most desired
in the whole world.

-You look great.
-I feel great.

Excellent.

Thanks to you.
I can't thank you enough.

No problem.

-Seriously, thank you.
-You're welcome.

Damn it!

-What's wrong?
-I'm late for the 7th Day Mass.

-Who died?
-My wife.

Didn't she die a long time ago.

Of course not.
I know when she died.

She died the day before we met.

You made me help you get over
the death of a woman who just died?

Yes.
And you were amazing.

-Stay a few more days.
-Thanks, honey. I can't.

Why not?

You know your dad
hates being all alone.

I understand.

-Can you do me a favor?
-Sure.

-Don't tell anyone about Ruy.
-Don't worry. It's our secret.

Okay.

Bye.

-I don't get it, Ariel.
-What don't you get?

You did all of that,
and then said no?

Why did you make us
lose the deal?

Didn't you see?

They spiked my drink, drugged me,
made me say all those lies.

Now, they think I'm a coward
that's scared of being alone.

Me, scared of being alone?
Screw them. And you too!

Stay away from me.
I'm going home.

I had my doubts
about dumping Oscar.

But he is so crazy
and so unpredictable.

I don't want to be all alone
in some diner, 20 years from now,

having stale bread and butter
waiting for him.

-He didn't call your mom?
-No.

My client said he loved his wife
more than anything,

and he went directly
from the funeral to bed.

The bastard went looking for sex.
Can you believe it?

Men are capable of anything.

At least Zanini wouldn't dare
do that to me.

I said he could hire a hooker
and he didn't, not once.

My bayou monster
is totally faithful.

I just got back from my trip.
I need to rest.

She'll be here any minute.

-What do you want me to do?
-I don't know. Take a walk.

I let you use my apartment once,
but that's it.

-Fine, rent it to me.
-No. I live here.

-How much?
-Seriously?

I need your place, okay?
I really do.

I'll get it.

Hey.
Le...

-It's open.
-It is?

-Hello.
-Hi honey.

Meet a friend of mine.

Rafael, my fiancée Leticia.
My buddy Rafael.

-Nice to meet you.
-Same here.

Rafael just got back from a trip
and he's locked out.

He's staying here for a while.

Okay, Rafael, make yourself at home.
My house is your house.

-I did it!
-You did what?

I can control my dick.

I imagined I saw Luna
everywhere,

instead of all kinds of people,
and I controlled it.

My dick obeys me now.
It's a tamed animal.

Flavia filed for a provisional
remedy of separation.

-What's that?
-She says she had to kick me out.

-What?
-She's on a warpath.

She'll do anything
to stop me from seeing my kid.

-She's totally insane.
-I can't believe it.

Can she get a court
to do something that crazy?

Joana...

-You need to know something.
-What?

She knows you were an escort.

She dug up everything about you
and she'll use it to hurt me.

She'll do anything to prove our son
can't live with a couple like us.

She'll come after you in court,
demoralize you.

She'll smear you, bribe witnesses...
Her family is very powerful.

It won't be hard for me only.
But for you too.

You can quit, if you want.

-Do you wanna quit?
-No.

Me neither.

I wanna be at your side.
I wanna fight with you.
