Pastores da Noite: O Compadre de Ogum (3x15)

Air date: Dec 03, 2002

Massu (Lázaro Ramos) receives from the hands of an unknown woman, Maria (Dirce Migliaccio), a blond baby, with lank hair and blue eyes, who claims to be her son, the result of one of her romantic relationships. He decides to baptize the boy so he doesn't become a pagan and invites Tibéria (Fernanda Montenegro) to be the child's godmother. There's only one problem: which of the "shepherd" friends will he choose as his godfather? The dispute of each of the friends to be chosen generates several funny situations until, in consultation with the father of saint Jaiminho (Cobrinha), Massu wins as a godfather none other than the deity Ogum (Christovam Neto). When the day of the christening arrives, the guests watch, gaping, as Ogun (Zebrinha) and Exú (Negrizú) fight to be the child's godfather.
