Geraldo cannot extricate himself from the kickback scheme created by Pacheco and finds himself further compromised when his son, Geraldinho, is arrested.

Maria Teresa feels a strange euphoria while riding, and her family is alarmed by her change in behavior.

Geraldo and his accomplices get involved in a scheme to stash money inside religious statues. Things get complicated when he makes a mistake.

Geraldo is invited to a Debret exhibition, but Maria Teresa ends up clashing with the painter.

Maria Teresa worries about Geraldo and steps in to defend her husband when a newspaper publishes a report about corruption at the Imperial Palace.

Geraldo is promoted and takes charge of the department. Consequently, he tries to distance himself from his corrupt friends, who do not like the idea.

Geraldo fears that the Emperor will be outraged by the problems at the Festa do Divino and tries to avoid embezzling money, but he could end up in trouble.

Geraldo is accused of embezzling public funds and needs to put up the Bulhosa family home as collateral to avoid prison.
