The Secret Life of Couples (2017–…): Season 1, Episode 2 - A casa do caracol não é o caracol? Ou é? - full transcript

The death of her patient Daniel is deeply troubling to Sofia. Inspector Figueira and Detective Luis interrogate Sofia but she refuses to talk.

I'm a sexologist.

That's my job, revealing secrets.

My business is sex.

This is a space we created

which is very special
and has helped many people.

Miranda is my associate.

At Tantra you will learn to awaken

the sexual energy in your body.

I think you're fine.
I'm discharging you.

No, Daniel, no.
We've gotten past that.

Daniel, we can meet
at 10:00 AM tomorrow.



Don't worry.
Nobody is going to see us.

Vicente?
I'm Renata the photographer.

Vicente, work on
Edgar Heleno Andreazza.

The ex Senator at Banco Andreazza?

Believe it or not,
he's as clean as a whistle.

Otero, Edgar won't take my calls

and this might not be
the right time.

We can call it off.

You're not calling it off.
It's too late.

- Sof¡a, they're after me.
- Daniel, they don't exist.

It's the same panic attack
you've already had.

It's all in your mind.

Keep this safe.
Not a word to anyone.

Daniel, don't leave. Stay here.



THE SECRET LIVES OF COUPLES

IS THE SNAIL'S SHELL
THE SNAIL OR NOT?

We have a few questions.

We know the victim
was here with you.

Can you tell us about that?

Did you hear anything weird
that caught your attention?

A scream, a vehicle?

Can you tell us about that?

Can you tell us
anything else about that?

Did you hear anything weird?

A scream, a vehicle?

His last call was to you
saying he was coming over.

Good day, ma'am.

Nice to meet you, I'm Figueira.
The commissioner.

I have some questions for you
if you don't mind.

I told the other officer
everything I know.

You need to be patient
with us, ma'am,

because under the circumstances

you must answer more questions
than you'd like to,

and they might even be
the same questions.

- Can I have a moment please?
- Sure.

You were the last person
to see Daniel alive.

No, I was definitely not
the last person.

Daniel Galviano was your patient
for approximately three years.

Wasn't he?

How often per week?

It varied a lot.

But if you need me to
I can ask my P.A.

to send you a complete list
of our sessions.

Were any of your sessions
in the middle of the night?

No.

Do you usually treat
your patients at your place?

No.

Okay.

So his being at your place
in the middle of the night

was that an exception?

Or wasn't it an appointment?

Daniel had a breakdown,
so I treated him.

He had a breakdown. Okay.

What kind of breakdown?

A patient's symptoms
can be a very complex issue.

I won't label his condition
just to answer you right now.

But if you need me to elaborate,

I could delve into
the clinical details.

You're a sexologist, right?

I suppose your patients
have sexual issues, right?

That's a very simplified definition

since the issues are connected
and affect several areas.

What about Daniel?
Did he have any sexual issues?

I never define or label
my patients like that.

Please drop the medical terms
and be brief,

just go straight to the point.

Did Daniel have any issues?

Any deviation
that could lead us somewhere?

What persons or places
did he visit regularly?

Because surely
being the sexologist you are,

you know how many surprising things

people can do for sex.

I think that our ways
of looking at things

are a little different.

Okay.

Was he gay?

No.

I guess my mind must be much simpler

because I think a guy who isn't gay

who goes to a woman's house
at 3:30 AM,

needs anything but
a medical consultation.

I'll be in contact. Have a nice day.

What time was that?

The entire system crashed?
What do you mean?

That's totally impossible.

And the backup?

What a piece of crap!

How could the whole thing
just crash?

Did you call Daniel?

Fine. Okay. Okay.

Otero! What the hell is going on?

Hi, you've reached Miranda.
I can't take your call.

Please leave a message.
Thank you very much.

- And?
- We can't find Daniel.

- Just find him!
- We've got everybody looking for him.

Gentlemen.

I've just been informed
that Daniel was mugged.

He was killed this morning.

It's your fault
we have tons of tickets.

This time
I guarantee you can park here.

You and your guarantees
caused us 1,000 tickets.

Have we ever paid a fine?
Let's not start today.

- And the points on the license?
- I'll call a friend at the DMV.

You always say that.
He never calls you back.

What are you bitching about?

We don't stand for three hours
at that filthy window,

now we have to go to Santana

and file papers
with our fingers crossed.

Screw that! And I have to take this?

Bureaucracy's ruining
this country, not me.

I'll talk to Adelaide.

This has to stop, Macedo.
Half an hour in a bank line?

What's that? We're specialists.
Not some damn gophers.

- No!
- Specialists.

- Open the damn door.
- Let's go.

Adelaide, we miss you.

Why don't you come back
to the station?

The coffee is just awful.

Is that all I can do, brew coffee?

You're great at everything,
gorgeous.

Sorry, Figueira. Go ahead.

Continue.

Luis, you know your phone
has three calls from Daniel

the day he was murdered.

He phoned you at 12:45.
Can you confirm that?

Tell him I'll call him.

I was working with Daniel.

He was helping me out
with a case I'm investigating.

The fake diamond case?

That's all, Adelaide.

Sorry, we're all friends here.

I thought captain Figueira
would be able to help.

Fake diamond?
What is that all about?

There's something more important
which is why Daniel had to die.

Let's focus on that.

Don't discuss it if you will,
but you can't withhold info.

Figueira, I always share
everything with you.

But this is a complicated case
and I have nothing to share yet.

Yes but you want information
about a dead guy.

Could his being an informant
be related?

That's what I need to know.

Luis, our job is complicated.

When we start an investigation,

things can splatter
all over the place.

But that's not our fault,
we just do what we have to.

That happens, but I guarantee you

that we stop even worse things
from happening.

That's all there is for now,
Figueira.

I have to take this.

I'll keep you informed.

Hello.

Look who's here!
It's the almighty Godfather!

- Hello Figueira.
- Figueira!

Screw that Captain Nascimento.

Don't you miss us?

Admit it. You miss us, right?

You left a man's job
to enjoy the good life.

Did you notarize those papers?
And where are the copies?

Adelaide, each hair of his
is worth a fortune.

He's our star crime fighter.
You should be on TV, buddy.

TV my foot, he should quit
and come work with us.

Is it a man's job?
No, it's just the easy stuff.

Were you staking out a motel
all day long?

Watching some hottie
cheating on her husband?

Piece of cake.

- Where are you going?
- Some of us have to work.

Did anyone witness your seizure?

No.

It started after Daniel left.

Before he died?

So it wasn't triggered
by watching him die?

No, it happened earlier.
I had a kind of vision.

You're not taking your medication.

Yes, I am taking it.
I took it afterwards.

You're lying again, Sof¡a.
You said you were medicated.

You won't take your meds
even knowing...

I need to... I need to keep
an open channel in my mind.

What channel?

A channel to a disorder,
to your instability?

One that can ruin your career
and your life?

I can't do this.

I just can't live like this,
stoned all the time.

Those... Those visions I have,

those, those flashes
are moments of such clarity,

they are my gut feelings,
that's when I communicate

with something much stronger
and bigger than me.

We've discussed it so much.

Stop fooling yourself,
it's like a drug.

These visions of yours

are not some kind
of divine explanation.

No, they are just the product
of your schizophrenia.

And if anyone finds out,
you are screwed.

You'd lose everything
you worked for.

I did not believe him.

He said he was in danger,

asked me for help
and I didn't believe him.

Hey, hey, hey.
Stop blaming yourself.

It's not your fault, honey.

A patient can say things
that make no sense anytime.

But I had a feeling,
it's just that I couldn't...

That death was emotionally shocking,

but it was a mugging.

People get mugged
all the time in this town.

No, it was not a mugging.

But you'll tell everybody
it was a mugging.

You're in no condition to judge.
You're very upset, Sof¡a.

Miranda, Miranda,
it was not a robbery.

I saw... I saw something.

But I just can't figure out
what it was I saw, I just...

Expecting someone?

I don't remember.

I'll get it.

I was in contact with Daniel

regarding one of the cases
I'm investigating,

and I'd like to speak with her.

I'm afraid Sof¡a's in
no condition to see anyone.

She's very upset.
It was a huge blow.

It's okay. I'll talk to him.

But I don't think I can help you.

I told the other officer
everything I know.

I'm not a police officer.

My name is Luis.
I'm a corporate investigator.

I know it's a bad time for you.
I won't be long.

I have nothing else to say.

I understand.

But didn't Daniel
make any kind of comment,

or speak about any kind of situation

he might've been involved in?

Or about someone
who was threatening him

for any reason whatsoever?

Any imminent danger?

I don't think
we can predict a mugging.

But it wasn't a mugging.

Everything indicates it was.

No.

Everything indicates it was made
to look like a mugging.

I prefer that side of the story.

It's very difficult for me
and risky in my line of work

having a patient who was murdered.

I guess it is.

Especially if he was killed

after leaving your house
in the middle of the night.

Hold it mister!

Do you realize

that in this investigation
you are a person of interest?

Okay, if you remember anything,

or if you need my assistance,
just give me a call.

Thank you.

- Did they plan this thing?
- Yes they did.

With all the security measures
I've implemented in the bank,

somebody just crashed
the entire system?

And with all the money
I pay you guys,

your brilliant minds
still can't recover the data?

Why can't you track them down!

Operations are limited,
we're doing everything we can.

Everything you can my foot!

Nothing and everything you can
are the same thing!

The damage is already done.
This is an investment bank.

If any of this leaks anywhere,
the result will be a tidal wave!

And you're doing all you can?

Just one rumor, one little rumor,

and the effect will be exponential.

We could cause a major crash
in the stock market.

- With Daniel's death...
- This isn't about his death.

It's about a major scandal

that'll ruin all of us.

It's slow, right?

It's a heavy file with 400 pictures.

Vicente, did you know
the guy from the bank died?

Edgar had a note published.

Who was he?

Daniel Galviano.

Daniel Galviano?

Did you get that name at the party?

I'm not sure. Did I?

Maybe he walked by,
or he was with some big shot.

You only see the big shots, right?

If they're simple mortals,
this goddess ignores them.

I hate parties, my friend.

I can't stand
a bunch of people in a room,

especially that kind.

I'm not like some people
who look for stiffs on the road.

Taking pictures of the living
isn't better than the stiffs?

The living can turn into stiffs
at any time.

That's him.

I jotted down his name,
but I forgot it.

I'm feeling better.

Great. Great!

That makes it worth everything.

You'll notice how
you leave it all behind you.

All the stress, the anxiety,

all of that
will be a thing of the past.

You won't even remember them
in no time.

You have no idea...

how much I appreciate
what you're doing for me.

I'm not doing it for you.
I don't even like you.

I'd do it for anybody. It's my job.

I feel happy today.

All of that made me a new person.

Even if only for a moment.

But I suddenly see a spark,

a glimpse of the man I could be.

And the man you are.

Now we need to yank out
everything you're not.

Everything that was put in you
but isn't you.

It isn't me?

No.

So the snail's shell
is not the snail?

Or is it?

So the snail's shell
is not the snail?

Or is it?

Daniel was one of the best
and most ethical professionals

I have ever worked with.

He was a commendable human being.

Dedicated.

A friend to his friends.

A man we had the pleasure
and privilege to know.

Daniel was the victim of a robbery,

of this city's rampant violence.

Our foundation will make
a donation in his name

to strengthen the war
against violence.

These kinds of crimes

took in the most cowardly way

the life of a very honorable
human being.

Hello, Edgar.
Vicente from "Portal" magazine.

I spoke with your editor.

We agreed that the story
would focus,

apart from the schools of course,

on the war on violence,
a cause which from now on,

due to this terrible loss of mine,

I will personally embrace.

It's good to see
such a great example

from the private sector.

But I don't see myself
as any kind of example.

I want to leave a substantial mark
on society. Vicente, right?

- Vicente, yes.
- Excuse me. We need to talk.

- This is my daughter Giordana.
- Hello.

Vicente is writing a story
about our foundation.

I'd love to speak with your wife
and daughter.

- If she speaks well about me.
- I'd rather avoid the media.

But it's about
your social activities.

Your investment
in education and safety.

It's all the result
of a lot of hard work.

I'm a hard worker myself
as Giordana knows.

I can relate to that.

Wouldn't you make an exception
so that we can talk?

Fine, if it's really about
the positive press,

because the negative press
attacks on all fronts.

I promise
it'll be an interesting piece.

May I make an appointment?

I'm sure my secretary
is able to accommodate you.

- Have a nice day. Come.
- Bye.

Nothing's impossible, Gouveia.

I want the very best experts.

We hired only the best experts
in the market, Edgar.

I bought the safest software
in the country,

which is constantly
updated and monitored

by the very best team there is,

and now you're telling me
our bank can be actually hacked?

What kind of morons
am I working with?

The team's boss was killed.
That might explain it.

Daniel was mugged.
That has nothing to do with it.

Is the BORDE meeting still on?

No, we're not telling BORDE
a word about this.

Or the public either.

But we need to call the cops
if we were hacked.

We're not getting the cops
or anyone else involved!

This crime,

this mugging,

already attracted
too much attention.

Sof¡a, you know what I want?
Some practical sessions.

I think we've discussed it a lot
theoretically,

done so much analysis,
the theme itself is worn thin.

And S? rgio agrees with me this time.

Is S? rgio doing drugs again?

- I can't deny it.
- And you?

No, not even weed.
Does some wine at night count?

Some tea?

I love that tea.

Let's toast to our sessions
at Tantra.

Fernanda, you're not ready
for Tantra yet.

Not in the stage
you guys are at now.

I think that Tantra,

at the stage you and S? rgio
are in now,

would not be beneficial.

But everybody recommends it a lot.

There's no "everybody."
Just individual issues.

Can you see yourself and Sergio
in a room with other people?

Think about how that would affect

S? rgio's obsession
with having sex in public.

Well, yes.
I guess he'll probably enjoy

knowing other people
are watching him.

So what's the problem?
Isn't that what they do?

Doesn't everybody see
what everybody else does?

No, nobody cares
what anybody else does.

Everybody is focused
on their personal issues,

on their experiences, on dealing with
their problems, learning, exploring.

That's what I want.
That's what I want!

I want to rediscover myself.
I want to feel all that desire.

All that ecstasy, all that madness!

Nanda, that's not our goal
here in Tantra.

Our goal is quite different.

Our sessions can't be used
to stimulate even more

your desire to feel
more and more adrenalin.

?Do you understand?

In your particular case,
Tantra would be a distortion.

Maybe I'm really doing all this
just to please S? rgio?

Or maybe I'm an addict now?

My mind is in total confusion.

Well, here's to confusion.

Bye, that's enough overtime for you.

That's okay.
We've covered the main issues.

And Nanda,
everything happens in due time.

- Promise to think about it?
- Yes, promise to take care?

I promise.

Bye.

Feeling better?

You look very different,
a lot happier.

No I'm not. I don't know.
It's been a long day.

Cancel all my appointments
for today, okay?

You have no more sessions
because of the conference.

My God!

I totally forgot
about the conference.

They're picking you up.

You requested some time
to get ready.

Can I do something for you?
Anything to help?

Did Pedro leave a message?
Any kind of news?

Not yet. Don't worry about it.
I'll tell you if he does.

But hey,
you look a lot better already.

I like seeing you like that.

HAPPY ELEVENTH BIRTHDAY RENATA

Well, well.
As punctual as ever, Luiz.

Thanks to my lifestyle

I'm always apologizing
for being late.

To whom? Not to me.
I've never heard you apologize.

You could improve your lifestyle.

Who's my role model, you?

You're always cooped up in "Portal",

with your brain
plugged into a computer.

Is your life for real,
or is it all just virtual?

Virtual sex.

Envy is lethal you know.

Is it the girl I met?

Yes. Michele.

She's very pretty, but I don't think
your mom will like her.

Yes. I don't think she will.

Okay. Let's go.

Five years without Virginia.

Five years already.

I guess she's around here
looking at us.

Sometimes I find myself
thinking I need to call her.

I almost never called her.

I didn't call my own wife,
much less my sister.

We barely spoke.

You spoke to her enough
for her to like you.

Let's not talk about guilt.

No, no, life is what it is.

It's what it lets us be.

Don't feel guilty about anything
because you were a great son.

Are you listening to me?
I'm talking to you.

You were a great son.

Get rid of the guilt already.
That's enough.

I said nothing about guilt.

- You're always brooding.
- I'm not brooding, Luiz.

Getting to the hospital or not
would've made no difference.

You know that, right?

Get that in your head
once and for all.

If not, coming here
will only be painful for you.

It's not the loneliness you feel
because I'm lonely too.

Your mom would be very upset
to see you feeling this guilty.

Just stop it.

You're so mistaken.

Your mom was the best mom ever,

my wonderful sister,

and we did everything
we possibly could.

Excuse me, Sof¡a.

A detective Luiz is here to see you.

I really don't understand
what you do here.

What is this place?
Some kind of sex spa?

Our practical sessions
are actually therapeutical,

they are part of our program.

Our goal is to make people
feel happier.

And I'd like you
to speak about this place

with the same respect
that all of us do.

No.

No, I apologize
if I seemed to be sarcastic,

that was definitely
not my intention.

I read the recommendations
on the Internet.

So I know how you approach
that subject here,

it's just that I'm new to this,

but it does seem
to be very interesting.

Luiz, I don't think you're here

about a program
for you and your wife.

No, Alice and I are fine. Thanks.

So what do you want?

Sof¡a, Daniel's car was parked
right in front of your house.

You said he came over
because he had a panic attack.

Then he left and you shut the door.

That's right.

A patient had a panic attack
in the middle of the night.

Didn't you make sure
even through the window

that he got in his car?

I saw him get in the car
through the window.

Did he leave?

That's something
I really didn't notice.

I was very tired.

But as his therapist,

did you make sure
your patient left safely?

Of course.

But you said you didn't see
what happened to Daniel,

that you didn't witness the crime.

If I had seen anything
I would've called for help.

Right.

Just like you,

I work and speak to people
under critical circumstances.

Serious issues, crises.

And for some reason I can't explain,

I know you're lying.

But I trust you.

You can trust me too.

I'm not a police officer,
I won't get you in any trouble.

But I really need you
to get to the bottom of this.

Alright. Thank you.

If you need anything
you know where to find me.

Thank you.

You job is a struggle
to find happiness.

In my job,
the struggle is to do justice.

Yes, Drica, go ahead.

No. No, I'm not ready yet,
but I'll be there very soon.

In this world we live in,

in the current era that we live in,

we are constantly being bombarded

by hundreds of millions
of bits of information,

by images, by bad news,

and we don't know
how to defend ourselves.

In fact, we don't even notice it.

We are simply building layer
upon layer on ourselves,

which accumulate
and turn into a huge mass,

a weight, a burden,

and we carry that burden
around every day,

without even realizing it.

We cannot allow these things
to invade our personal space,

our homes, our minds, our hearts.

Now, can you imagine

how much this interferes
with our lives,

with our love lives,
with our relationships,

with our sex lives,
with our intimacy,

with our dedication,
and our moments of pleasure?

More than ever we need to realize

that our senses,
even our pores are saturated

with things that aren't ours,
things that are forced upon us.

And discard the things that harm us,

and can seriously hurt us.

Do not allow yourselves
to be invaded

by anything
that isn't essential to you.

- Thank you. Bye.
- Bye.

- Can I have an autograph?
- Sure.

I read your book.
It helped me a lot.

It's one of few things
I find helpful.

I'm glad to hear that.
The next one is due soon.

- Can I have your office number?
- Yes, of course.

The Tantra Institute.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Sorry about the delay.

Which one are you sorry about?

Today's delay?

Yesterday's delay,
or the day before?

All of them.

Luca, did you do your homework?

You can play later.
I'm talking to you.

- He did. I saw it.
- Doesn't he ever answer?

Mom, I'm going to Bi's place.

I did my biology project.
Can I stay overnight?

No, Lu, stay here with your dad
for a while.

We can watch a movie or a video.

I'm here all the time.
You're the one that's not here.

Now that we're both here,
let's have popcorn.

You can pick the movie.
What's it called again?

- I'm studying with Bi, Dad.
- You don't need to study.

- You did your project?
- Right.

You don't need to study now.

Pretend you're studying
while we watch this.

This is just wonderful!

All of us together watching a movie.

I feel like making candy popcorn.

- I want some!
- So he does hear us.

I have to take this.

Hello.

Did they take anything?

Is there any sign of violence?

Any smashed windows,
or anything like that?

Did you call the cops?

You need protection.
I can have your home guarded.

Not getting any protection
at a time like this is absurd.

Where are you?

Okay.

There's an emergency. I have to go.

- Dad!
- Sorry. I have to go, Lo.

I promise we'll watch it
together later.

Okay.

Bye Dad.

I'm fine, thanks.

Good evening, Sof¡a.

- Thanks for coming.
- No problem.

- Would you like some wine?
- No. I'll have a coffee.

Why didn't you call the cops?

I've had it with the cops
and getting involved in that.

It's not what you want.
You already are involved.

It's not just my image
that's at stake.

It's Tantra's image.
I can't hurt my life's work.

If you'll just trust me
I can help you.

Daniel didn't die during a robbery.

No. No he didn't.

And they didn't break in
your place to rob you either.

No, it could've been a robbery.
It might not be related.

Has anyone been pressuring you
in any way whatsoever?

Phone calls?

No.

Do you know anyone

who might want something
from you and why?

Anyone you know
who could be suspicious?

No.

Whoever broke in your house,
what were they looking for?

I don't know. Money? Jewels?

You don't believe that.

You know you're in danger.
You need protection.

I'll have your home guarded.

They didn't find anything
they were looking for,

they've discarded me,
so they'll leave me alone.

Don't you need to help find out
who did that to Daniel?

Don't you want that?

Of course I do, very much.

Then you need to tell me
everything you know.

It's all off the record.

We don't even need
to involve the cops in it.

I don't like Figueira.

What's there to like?

You and Daniel...

What did you talk about?

That's a confidential matter

between a patient and his therapist.

Right, but he might've
told you something

that can give us a clue
and put us on the right track.

Nothing Daniel told me
is relevant to the case.

Did you two have
a more intimate relationship?

What do you mean?

A romance. Did you have a romance?

No.

They broke into his apartment too.

They searched everything.

He had...

...a lot of pictures.

Pictures of you.

You might not want to talk to me.
