Overview

• Hundreds joined the tongue‑in‑cheek Débora Bloco parade in downtown Rio, turning the whodunnit into a carnival‑style street party with fans costumed as key characters.
• Copacabana Palace leaned into the plot with a playful post saying it is “collaborating with the fictitious police” after the on‑screen killing in a hotel suite.
• TV Globo confirmed the murder episode set a Globoplay live‑viewing record, surpassing 5 million connected devices during the broadcast.
• Following the Oct 6 ratings peak in Greater São Paulo (30.9 points), subsequent episodes dipped to 29.9, 29.2 and 28.7 points, according to reported figures.
• With the killer set to be revealed Oct 17, Globo kept final‑week summaries off the schedule and reportedly filmed multiple alternate endings, as five suspects dominate discussion and even São Paulo’s DHPP posted a lighthearted video acknowledging the craze.
