– Life in America is a circus! Seems like everything on TV is invented, the movies and shows have nothing to do with reality. It’s all coming from the heads of Hollywood and the H2O gang, and as it goes back in …

– Mister-what-head?!
– Haha, the guy with orange hair who wants to be president of the United States.

– You have to laugh. Did you hear what’s been happening? Total hilarity. We Portuguese are running out to buy a phone so we can hear about greedy old fogies who only concern themselves with suitcases full of laundered money! Meanwhile for Americans it’s pretty much a forró.*

– Because it’s one thing when you’re offered a pair of shoes (or a lobster dinner), and entirely different when you get something like a wardrobe (or a mind) for free. Every woman knows it’s coming too easy! Even in America.
*Editor’s note: Forró is a genre of Brazilian music that encompasses various dance styles.
