01x02 - Episode 2

[bunniefuu]

Who are you? Why

are you following me?

Calm down, professor.

I'm from the Judicial Police.

We monitor the people with whom

Martinho Toscano had connections with.

But was he involved

in any trouble?

We found a voice recorder when

we searched his office. office.

Listen to it.

MARTINHO: "Give the

documents to Tomás Noronha.

"He'll crack the code.

If anything happens

to me, he'll send

everything to the police."

What documents

is he talking about?

We don't know.

But we think it

was they k*lled him.

TOMÁS: But wasn't he mugged

in Rio de Janeiro?

The coroner puts the time

of death to five in the morning.

But who k*lled him?

And why?

We don't know.

That's what we're trying to find out

with the help of the Brazilian police.

PHONE RINGS

It's crucial that we know

what the teacher wanted to give him

to see if it's connected

to crime or not.

Does it have to do

with the investigation in Brazil?

If I were you,

I'd be careful,

at least until we know

if it has to do with the research.

What evidence do the police have?

For the time being,

it's just suspicions.

Robberies are common in Brazil.

On the other hand, he wasn't doing well,

I had financial problems.

The documents I wanted to give you

have to do with research?

The police don't know.

If it wasn't a random robbery,

if someone wanted to k*ll him,

the motive was certainly different.

It's an investigation into

a subject more than 500

years old and, as we've said,

the temperament changed a lot.

He had enemies

that he was aware of?

No, not that I know of.

He's not going to give up

because of that, aren't you, Tomás?

Until I have information

about what happened, I

can't accept your invitation.

- I understand why,

but it's also imperative

to recover our research

and Tomas is the only

one who can do it. to do it.

- What do you want to accept?

- It's not about money.

Tomás, the Foundation has

connections all over the world.

If you help us, you'll have access to

the biggest and best historical collections.

Imagine how far you could

get with so much information.

Thank you, Tomás.

Has the board given permission for

the plenary session in the amphitheater?

We didn't ask. It will be at the

time the tuna was rehearsing.

- That's going to be a mess, Bruno.

- I hope so.

Or do you want to continue glorifying the colonizers

and promoting a romanticized vision of the Discoveries?

RODRIGO: Nothing better than

censorship to put everything in order.

Censorship? It's not censorship.

If you want to be taken

seriously, do things properly.

Come along You're very welcome.

At this age, you're not afraid of of anything,

not the government, the police, or the institutions.

We've also been demonstrations

against tuition fees.

We fought for education

for all, don't compare.

The Cancel Culture trend is to

deny space to historical figures

just because they behaved

that is now reprehensible.

You should go to plenary

to give your opinion.

- And get trounced by the students.

- Thrashed?

The faculty has a long

tradition of democratic debate.

We're all democrats, as long as as

long as we don't disagree with them, right?

There are words you don't say,

books are taken away, you know?

Radical kids think

they're morally superior.

You're mixing them up. Radical kids?

On the contrary,

they're fighting

against a single view of history and

are asking for respect

for the memory of minorities.

A rich white kid like him?

What's wrong with that? At

least he's doing something.

Are you going?

Yes. In fact, I expect

to be in the front row.

- You've always liked

trouble. TOMÁS: Victory.

- See you later.

- See you later.

I thought you'd be you'd

be flying over the Atlantic.

- I've missed the plane.

- You missed the plane?

I missed the plane. Come

here. Forget it, come here.

- Your wife called me.

- Constance?

- How many women do you have?

- What did she want?

It was strange. She wanted to to get something

off her chest, she talked badly about you.

- It was weird.

- Be quiet. Come here.

I'm joking. She said that Toscano's

wife was at your house this morning.

- Come here.

- I won't.

There's a tape. I'm not going.

Damn it.

Tomás, the police have already

been here. Let's get out of here.

- I know the police have been here.

- Then let's get out of here.

Tomás, stop!

They might have missed

something.

What might they have

missed? What could missed?

Just tell me,

and I'll help you look.

I don't know

what I'm looking for.

Have you talked to the

Foundation about this suspicion?

- I've just come from the Foundation.

VICTORIA: What did they say?

- They don't want me to give up.

- I'm going to contradict myself.

If the police tell you that this

dangerous, you'd better give up.

Forget it. You're like a crazy

person looking for who knows what.

I feel exactly the opposite.

The more questions arise,

the more I want to investigate.

HELENA: sh*t.

Do you want help?

That's all right. Thank you.

- Are you sure?

- Yes, yes, I can do it.

TOMÁS: Let me

try, if you don't mind.

- It's the door that won't open.

- I'll see. Let me just look here.

I feel like a fool. I

didn't know I had a key.

- Just change the battery.

- Thank you. Don't forget this.

Don't forget this.

Professor, let me at least buy

you a coffee to make up for it.

PHONE RINGS What if you

can't open the car again?

Save me again.

The doctor just called.

The results of have come out.

Will you meet me at the

hospital? I didn't want to be alone.

TOMÁS:"Yes, I'll meet

you, See you soon."

Any changes? The blockage

It's still there and

unfortunately the

problem has worsened.

As much as I want to spare

Margarida from yet another surgery,

we're going to have to intervene.

I advise you to talk to her

and explain what will

happen from now on.

CONSTANCE SIGHS

And did you manage to identify him?

MAN: "No, the guy knew

there were cameras."

(SIGHING) Thank you.

A Portuguese historian

who worked

with Toscano goes to Brazil.

I'd like you to keep an eye on him.

Do you suspect him?

FROES:"No. But I'd like to know

who he's talking to."

I'll keep an eye on him.

"I don't want him to end up

like Toscano."

DIOGO:I've come to give you an answer

about the budget you sent me.

You'll be able to count on

more money than you asked for.

Thank you. I can't thank you enough.

I can't thank you enough.

Why don't you come to dinner with me

tonight?

I can't.

My husband is traveling.

I'm alone with my daughter.

Maybe another time.

And you won't get a babysitter?

TOMÁS:Thank you.

Good morning.

- Good morning.

I'm Tomás de Noronha,

a university professor.

I know that the

Américo Vespúcio

requested some documents

and books for me to consult.

WOMAN:The Foundation staff got in touch with me

because of the work work of Professor Martinho Toscano.

That's right. That's right.

I need to know everything

that has been requested.

I want to see

everything he consulted.

- That's fine. Just a minute.

- Of course, thank you.

And they accuse us of wanting

to rewrite history. But we don't.

All we want

is for history to be written,

without forgetting the people

who lost, who were humiliated.

Of course we have to

respect the facts.

But we cannot glorify

the

colonialists who have always

nurtured

and sowed sl*very and racism for centuries.

These statues and symbols are an insult to

our democracy and to the progress of our society.

So, as long as this exists,

there will never be equality.

Never!

Statues are human constructions

that serve to glorify the figures of history.

So, if historiography is not immutable, the

symbols of that regime should not be either.

Civil disobedience is just

behavior when it opposes injustice.

Every day, every day, a statue will be torn down until there

is no other figure left that doesn't deserve to be celebrated.

Mr. Professor, do you

have anything to say?

Defend the perspective

of the colonizers?

We were open to dialog.

VITORIA: Rodrigo! Take it easy.

One day we'll have a committee of

students entering the library to burn books.

You receiving indications of

what to research and teach.

What an exaggeration. I don't

think that no one has anything to fear.

Now, those who

are intellectually

dishonest, they could

have serious problems.

There are subjects that aren't

worth dialogue, we'll never agree.

- No, we won't.

But to a certain extent I

understand your anger.

- Teacher, hello.

- Do you understand?

Excuse me. Do you have of

Professor Tomás de Noronha?

- He's in Brazil.

- I know.

I was supposed to send him

a document that I can't read.

- Do you have a point?

- Yes.

It's 91

- 91

- 54

33

Thank you. Thank you.

You shouldn't have given him the number.

I didn't give him Tomas's

number, I gave him mine.

I can read documents too.

There's a lot I know how to

do, Rodrigo. You have no idea.

Hello.

Professor Toscano left

some documents with me.

Pinzón?

Cabral, Cantino?

There you go Is that

the list of requisitions?

- Yes, I printed it out.

- Can I see it?

Which books have to do

with the discovery of Brazil

by Álvares Cabral?

- Let me see, excuse me.

Here. The "Cosmographiae

by Waldseemüller shows one

of the first maps

where Brazil appears and here below

the "Paesi",

by Montalboddo, was the first book in

which the discovery of Brazil was

the discovery of Brazil.

- These two?

- Yes.

And the other books?

As far as I know, they're not related.

- What year is the Paesi from?

- The Paesi is from 1507.

But here it appears

as being from 1508.

- You've made a mistake.

- Can I see it?

It's in the rare works section.

But how did the professor

consult it? On microfilm?

He consulted the original.

- I want to see the original, then.

- All right, then.

Thank you very much.

Dad, at last!

How's Rio de Janeiro?

TOMÁS: "It's hot just the

way we like it. How are you?"

I'm fine, I came for dinner

grandparents' house.

- Put Mom on.

MARGARET: "Mom's not here."

"He had a work dinner. Do you

want me to give him a message?"

That's all right,

I'll call her later.

WOMAN: "Daisy, come to dinner!"

MARGARET: "Grandma's calling to

the table. Have you had dinner yet?"

It's very early here.

It's not dinner time yet.

You go, otherwise the

food will get cold. Go on.

Professor Tomás?

I've come to see if you need

anything else before we close.

No. That's all for today.

That's all for today.

Thank you.

Have a good night.

And then full-time mom.

I spent a period of my life

not knowing what I wanted.

Sometimes.

And what is it that are

you passionate about?

No.

Congratulations

on your speech in plenary.

- Everyone. Heads up.

- I said what you wrote.

Let's spread our action

to the whole country.

Tomorrow, in Madeira, there will

be an attack on the Columbus statue.

And we're going to start a campaign to remove from libraries

books that promote a fascist fascist version of Portugal's history.

You know I'm counting on you,

as always.

CELL PHONE NOTIFICATION

Sorry, one second. I'll be right back.

BOY 1:- Do you have any

more beer? BOY 2:- Yes.

Hello, professor.

How's the trip going?

A lot of work or

have you to have fun?

VITORIA:"I always

find time to have fun."

- Who are you?

- "Vitória Nascimento."

Since Tomás is

away, you can send me

the document and I'll

Good afternoon.

Lourenço de Mello, cultural attaché.

- Excuse me.

- Have you been here long?

No, I only arrived a few days ago.

I've heard you're taking Professor

Toscano's place at the Foundation.

Not exactly. I'm just trying

to put the house in order.

We've been supporting

Professor Toscano's

research for many years.

receive his correspondence.

LOURENÇO: He's told me

about you, more than once.

I'm glad it's Tomás

trying to finish his work.

The envelope got lost

in our mail distribution.

It had been sent from

Portugal by Professor

Toscano a few days

before he died, to the care of

our consul, but unfortunately

only now have we found it.

When you got it back

was it already open?

I think that's why that

we made the mistake.

The professor asked

us to take care of

the documents until he returned to Brazil.

I'm going to walk a bit.

MAN: You have to

inform Mr. Moliarti.

He can call me.

Thank you, Mr. Moliarti.

Good evening. Mr. Moliarti

Good evening, sir.

- Are you hungry?

- Yes, I'm hungry.

Would you like some

of this? It's just arrived.

Yes.

"Ana, roast, macaw" ?

"Ana, roast, macaw."

The words are symmetrical.

From left to right

and from right to left

they say the same

thing. "Ana, assa, arara."

So?

It's a key.

Moloc.

The other way around reads

- Yes, a juice.

Do you want a juice?

Let's order a juice.

DOOR OPENS

How was your trip?

Tiring.

I couldn't sleep on the plane.

Margarida?

She's asleep. Go wake her up.

Look what I've brought. I haven't forgotten

your present. Check it out.

I love it so much!

Let's eat to go to school.

Everything's on the table.

- Did you get a present?

- Yes, I did.

- The food's all ready.

- Constance.

She's fine, isn't she?

Hello, the anesthesiologist

said that the tests are this week.

What about you?

How were your days?

I'm going to start looking for

a place to stay with Margarida.

- It doesn't make sense.

- And Margarida?

- Does she move house every week?

- We'll find a way.

Are you sure that's what

you want to do?

- I've already decided.

- Listen to me. Listen to me.

I know you didn't have dinner

at home while I was away.

You have someone else, don't you?

I get it.

What's this?

Where is my darling?

What have they done to you?

darling?

Darling

May I?

Helena, it won't work

today. I've run out of time.

- Is the family waiting?

- That's not the point.

I'm hungry, it's late and

I have to go to dinner.

If you want company

No, I don't.

It doesn't have to be today, but I can give you my

address and you can come over whenever you want.

Here's the thing

There's something I'd like

to make clear.

If you need help, you can

turn to to any of my colleagues.

- It doesn't have to be me.

- What's the problem?

I'm not 18 anymore, I'm

not a graduate student.

I'm married.

Almost there.

CONSTANCE: The police

can get your computer.

The important thing is

the documents from Brazil.

- Order a coffee, please.

- I need you to be quiet.

At this hour?

You won't be able to sleep.

I need to mentally review everything I consulted

in Brazil to understand what could be important.
