Like in a puzzle, she learns that Dante worked researching lands to see whether they have archeological value. Berenice is a childhood friend that glances at him on television and seeks him out to investigate her real estate that her brutal husband Ciro wants to transform in a camping area. Dante finds an ancient bone in the location but he is forced by the violent Ciro to stop his research. Berenice asks him to forget his findings and they have one night stand. However, Dante shows his discovery to the archeologist Renê on whom Dante has a crush, and she seduces him and convinces him to show the site. Dante fells like a dummy in this triangle of love, triggering his schizophrenia.
