In the vibrant world of Brazilian agriculture, Teto, portrayed by Danilo Mesquita, enjoys a life of luxury as the favored son of Teodoro, the renowned “Tomato King” played by Ernani Moraes. However, everything changes when he crosses paths with Paula, an ambitious and determined medical student enacted by Giovanna Lancellotti. As the countdown to Teto’s birthday begins, his father plans a surprise gift: a job that will anchor Teto in the family business.
The upcoming Festa do Tomate, heightened by DJ Alok’s appearance, presents what might be one of Teto’s final chances to embrace his carefree existence alongside friends and family in their quaint town. It is amid the rhythmic beats of electronic and country music at this festival that Teto and Paula’s destinies intertwine.
Eager to win Paula’s affection and to prove his capabilities to both his father and himself, Teto concocts a web of deceit about his origins, masquerading as someone from humble beginnings. This deceitful façade spirals into complications as his lies lead him to unexpected troubles in Rio de Janeiro. Assisting him in this chaotic yet romantic escapade is his loyal friend Igor, brought to life by Jaffar Bambirra, who navigates the complexities of friendship and love amidst the chaos.
As Teto ventures deeper into his deception, he finds himself entangled with a blend of quirky characters, including the strict Alana, a human resources consultant played by Fernanda Paes Leme, and Monique, a fierce presence portrayed by Lellê. Alongside them are Raissa and Katia, Paula’s supportive friends, who add to the unique tapestry of Teto’s journey as he strives to reconcile his identity with the expectations placed upon him.
