Remember the plot of “Queen of Scrap”
The soap opera, which marked the author’s debut in prime time on TV Globo, followed the life of Maria do Carmo, established as a successful woman based on her own father Onofre’s (Lima Duarte) business. However, despite her wealth, the character still maintains the old habits of the past.
Since her youth, Maria has had an unrequited love for Edu Figueroa (Tony Ramos). After changing her life, the girl suggests a marriage to help her loved one’s family – on the verge of bankruptcy.
Accepting the proposal, the two get married and go to live in the husband’s family mansion in a sophisticated neighborhood in the capital. There, what was a dream turns into a true nightmare, when the protagonist comes across Laurinha (Glória Menezes), Edu’s stepmother and obsessed with her stepson.
Maria do Carmo still faces other problems throughout development, such as, for example, a coup by Renato Maia (Daniel Filho), who manages her companies.
