Mild to moderate use of Portuguese curse words and exclamations, equivalent to 'damn,' 'hell,' or 'ass,' is present, often in moments of frustration or argument between Rui and Vani.

Occasional social drinking of alcohol, such as wine or beer, is depicted during dinner scenes or social gatherings. Characters are sometimes shown consuming alcohol, but in moderation, and intoxication is rare or played for mild comedic effect. No illicit drug use is present.

This season explores themes of marital dissatisfaction, infidelity (often contemplated or humorously attempted), and the psychological quirks of the main characters. Episodes deal with career frustrations, financial woes, and the complexities of long-term relationships, sometimes touching on existential or identity crises in a comedic light.
