Acerola saves a rich boy from drowning and they become good friends. As the realization that people from different social classes hits them, they form a group called "The Ordinaries".
Acerola enters a group dance competition while Laranjinha's aim is to stay with three different girls all through the night and then take a fourth home.
The two take a trip to Brasília, to talk to Presidente Lula and give him a letter from an elderly prisoner.
The two young men go to the beach, where they surf, watch girls and think about losing their virginity.
