9	After bearing witness to shady business between a corrupt businessman ([[Creator/GerardDepardieu Depardieu]]) and Sergio Peña, a food engineer and maker of a preservative formula (and the murder of the latter), as well as taking their contract, Leonardo Andrade (Lanzani) finds himself pursued by Duges Laboratories and, in an attempt to hide from them, takes on the guise of a Jew. However, on his way, he's confused for one going to an annual reunion, and ends up hiding in their temple. There, he meets rabbi Mendi, Sara and Yosi, and begins his days as Shalom the Jew. Later, when he goes to ask for help from his neglecting brother Agustín at the church he works at, Duges' men come and take him away, and it's up to Leo, Yosi and Sara to get him back.
