As tensions rise, Wilson meets Lígia, a reporter from Spain looking to investigate corruption in the City of God. Later, Leka questions whether her father's photographs are exploitative, Barbantinho tries to set up a face-to-face with Curió and Bradock, and Berenice fights to keep her boyfriend Clayton, aka "PQD," away from crime.

After seizing control, Bradock looks to build trust in the community despite his increasingly erratic behavior. Meanwhile, Wilson and Lígia uncover a possible connection between Secretary of Security Reginaldo Cavani, local militias, and a mole in Bradock's inner circle.
