Following the shootout at the cafe, Nando goes into hiding in Bolivia until things calm down. He’s shot in the arm and has to undergo surgery to get the bullet out.
Doni is also shot and Rita accompanies him to the hospital. Doni survives but has to undergo months of physical therapy to get back on his feet and walk again.
Rita visits the church to thank God for saving Doni and while she’s there, she sees a young girl that reminds her of her past. She decides to go back to school and complete her studies.
The authorities arrest Scheyla to pressurize Nando and he tells his lawyer to get her out somehow. He also tells her to get Cleyton released since they have more considerable leverage now.
Nando tries to apologize to Doni but Doni isn’t ready to forgive him. He has a tough time getting used to his new life and it affects his career significantly. He isn’t able to move on stage like he used to and the medical bills pile up on him.
Rita is thrilled to have Cleyton back with her but she doesn’t get to spend enough time with him because she chooses to join law school after getting her GED.
Nando is stressed because someone tries to take his life while he is in hiding but he survives. He learns that someone from his own organization ratted him out.
He works towards finding out who the rat is and also looks into ways to get Scheyla out of prison. Scheyla struggles inside for a while but eventually steadies herself and develops some resolve.
Doni picks up more gigs to earn more and pay off his debts but things are moving slowly so Marcão tells him that they have to part ways because he’ll have one less salary to pay.
Rita meets a lawyer named William who works at a legal clinic fighting for people who don’t have the resources to afford top council and she gets an internship there.
She learns a lot more about how the law work and tries to help every person that she can from her position until it all gets overwhelming for her.
Doni drops his record label after they try to negotiate a bad deal and he moves back home after having to give up his apartment because of his debts.
Nando ultimately finds out that Messinho was the one who set him up and he gets his revenge. Doni starts his own record label to promote young rap battle artists from his favela.
Rita is caught at a crossroads after Nando asks her to convince Scheyla to go along with his plan to break her out. Scheyla wants to do things legally but Nando insists on getting her out.
At the final moment, Rita asks Nando to drop the plan because she has a change of heart and he agrees.
