New Bandits

Ubaldo, an ex-military man who now works at a bank in São Paulo, heads northeast after inheriting land from the biological father he never knew: a famous cangaceiro. When Ubaldo is taken hostage during a bank robbery, he escapes death by offering information for a robbery. He is persuasive and the gang accepts his deal, as long as he can prove that he is telling the truth.

The gang prepares for the next heist. Ubaldo is reunited with a childhood friend, Leinneane, whose husband is running for mayor. Tensions rise between the bandits when a robbery nearly costs them their lives. Ubaldo rebels against the gangs incompetence and wins a fight against Ameaço. If they want to make real money now, theyll have to do it their way: no deaths.

After a successful heist, Ubaldo brings his recently recovered father Ernesto from São Paulo to Cratará. Meanwhile, Dinorah plans to take revenge on Mayor Gastão for having raped her when she was a child. Her boyfriend Lino hers helps her attack Gastão, leaving him disfigured. However, fleeing the scene of the crime, Lino is shot.

Ubaldo and Dinorah rob only half a bank to support Paulino Leites campaign. To save his son from a life of crime, Ernesto blows up Ubaldos warehouses, destroying his weapons in the process. Ubaldo and Leinneane suspect Gastão, and the aspiring first lady uses her own campaign money to finance the robbery that will bring her political victory.
