Just kidding.

Elza's a regular here

at the dance.

I've had bold women before

Shy ones

Expierienced ones

Married and Ionely

Single and happy

I've had maidens

and even whores

Intellectual women

And crazy ones

Confused women,

of war and peace

But none of them

Made me as happy as you do

Look, the best part

is dancing in the hall...

there's no fun just looking.

There are only two things prevent

a lady from being asked to dance

not knowing how to dance,

and bad breath.

Excuse me.

Just kidding!

Nice dress, that.

Very nice.

What a bore!

Not only that, he can't

dance to save his life.

- Really?

- Terrible dancer.

GIson!

Yes, lvaro.

Alice went to fetch me an analgesic

but she must have forgotten.

- Oh, here you are.

- No, no, no.

- Here, take it.

- No, you take them to her.

What?

Take them and tell her

to bring one to me.

She'll get all upset

if she realizes she forgot.

Well, you're the boss.

Be patient, Margarida.

Dona Alice...

lvaro's pills.

Oh yes!

- Thank you so much.

- Don't mention it.

- There's one missing.

- No that's right.

Right, cheers!

Now to finish off, let's dance.

- Hi honey, how are you?

- Fine, you?

- This is my wife.

- A pleasure!

- It's her birthday today.

- Congratulations!

Here's your medicine.

Thanks. The main thing is,

you didn't forget.

Yes.

Alice, look...

everything that's important,

pay attention...

you write down on

this piece of paper.

And from time to time you read it.

Take care only to write down

what's important.

Here, put it in your bag.

He's married and always promised

to respect my space

to never bring that wife

of his here.

I was at the window and suddenly

in he walks with her.

Damn, he promised

never to do that.

He's got a nerve!

He hasn't heard

the last of this!

It's really full.

It's full but look,

everyone's dancing.

- Vagner, please.

- Come on, it's just us.

I know honey,

but I want to dance in the hall.

Tonight's our night!

It's ours and you think I'm not

going to dance in the hall?

Alice...

you've got to more carefully

choosing your friends.

It's Aurelina.

She's so cheap.

It doesn't do to keep company

with that sort of a woman.

But I really like her.

If you like her it's because you'd

like to be like her, an easy woman.

You really are unbearable today!

Take it or leave it.

What's that supposed to mean?

Look, what you just said,

I won't have it.

Take it or leave it?

I'm off!

Excuse me.

Sh*t, Moraes!

I'm sorry folks, I'm upset.

Won't happen again.

Interrupting the dance is

a sign of disrespect.

Really guys, come on,

let's carry on.

Hope it doesn't stop again,

we'll see.

- Dionsio!

- Eudes!

- Long time!
