New Bandits

Ubaldo, an ex-military who now works on a bank in São Paulo, heads northeast after inheriting lands from the biological father he never knew - a famous cangaceiro. When Ubaldo is taken hostage during a bank heist, he buys his way out of death by offering information for a more profitable heist. He’s persuasive enough that the gang agrees to his bargain, as long as he's able to prove his point.

With an injured Jeremias, the gang improvises an escape and seeks shelter at a farmer's home. Dinorah fights against one of the bandits after he attack the farmer's teenage daughter. To save Dinorah's life, Sabiá sends her off to help Ubaldo keep his promise, after which she'll be able to enact her revenge. Ubaldo will have to fight his own sister if he wishes to survive.

As the gang prepares for the next heist, Ubaldo reconnects with an old childhood friend, Leinneane, whose husband is running for mayor. Tensions rise among the bandits when the next robbery almost costs them their lives. Ubaldo rebels against the gang's amateurism and wins a fight against Ameaço. From now on, if they want to make real money, they'll have to do it his way: no deaths allowed.

While Ubaldo works to professionalize the gang, Dinorah makes a bid of 1 million reais to save their properties from being auctioned off by the bank. They've won, but now they'll need more money and prepare for the next heist. Dilvania welcomes the families that lost their homes in the auction to live on their land, creating a commune and inspiring political hatred.

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 raping her as a child. Her boyfriend Lino helps her make an attack against Gastão, leaving him disfigured. Fleeing the scene of the crime, however, Lino gets shot.

Leinneane's husband and her family, political opponents to Gastão, are accused of being responsible for the crimes against him. Ernesto is worried about his son's dangerous new lifestyle and tries to persuade him out of it. But when a assassination attempt against Leinneane and himself takes place, Ubaldo realizes he's have to steal whatever it takes for her to beat the Maleiros at the election.
