The irreverent Dulcinéa struggles to keep her revue theater, *Mambembe*, afloat; the building itself belongs to the traditional Maldonado family. The patriarch, Salvador Maldonado—a conservative man—keeps a tight rein on the clan, maintaining control over both the business and his children: Joana, an elegant and snobbish woman who is the staunchest defender of the views held by Pops, as the children call him; Téo, who has always silently submitted to the old man's high-handedness; Walter, dominated by his older sister and his father's favorite; and Lalucha, the youngest, a film student who challenges the status quo and rebels against the family's stuffy conservatism.
Pérola Negra is a Brazilian telenovela produced by SBT and originally broadcast from November 9, 1998, to June 22, 1999. It is an adaptation of the Argentine telenovela Perla Negra (1994), created by Enrique Torres, adapted for Brazilian television by Henrique Zambelli and Clayton Sarzy. The telenovela stars Patrícia de Sabrit and Dalton Vigh. The story follows Pérola Marques, a young woman abandoned as a baby at a boarding school with a necklace of twenty-two black pearls, each intended to pay for one year of her education. After her best friend Eva dies shortly after giving birth, Pérola assumes Eva's identity to care for her son and fulfill her final wish. As she enters the wealthy Pacheco Oliveira family, she becomes entangled in secrets, betrayals, and a passionate romance with Tomás Álvares Toledo while uncovering the truth about her own past.

Doca is a drug addict, and his sister Bia has become pregnant by her boyfriend, Michel. Their parents, Odilon and Paula, are deeply unhappy as well.
