72-74: Eulália and Vicente study at college. Eulália's father, a large landowner, assumes the costs of Vicente's studies and entrusts him with watching over Eulália.

April 25, 74: They meet fortuitously at the Carmo gate.

74-75: Vicente returns to law school, with a luxury car and notable signs of wealth.

75-76: In Law, Vicente is once again one of the brightest students. He is invited to join a group of the best students, advising constitutionalists in supporting the Constituent Assembly, for the preparation of the new Constitution.

76-77: In Letters, Eulália presents the thesis: “The goddess Diana, the Dianthus caryophyllus (also known as carnations) and the Constitution of 76″. At the exit, she is met by a convertible covered in carnations, driven by Vicente.
