Upon realizing she is alone, Bettina despairs and suffers a serious car accident. Her brain death is diagnosed, and her heart is transplanted into Paloma. Upon learning of Bettina's death and the transplant of her heart, Diogo, feeling guilty, becomes obsessed with the idea of getting close to Paloma, believing that in doing so he would be close to the heart of the woman he loved.
