Benedito Silveira, a representative of a European firm interested in Alberto's products, flirted with Clarinda, despite being relatively old.

She spent her time outings with Laura, a highly experienced aviator and her childhood friend. The factory's growing crisis forced the shareholders to meet frequently. Employee layoffs were inevitable. Antonio Martins was a young shareholder who spent most of his time in clubs and cabarets.
