Tutti gli episodi

Hana, una bambina di nove anni, vive con la sua famiglia adottiva in una casa nel Sud America. Padre Pedro Belenbauza e la moglie l'hanno però adottata solamente al fine di ricevere l'assegno mensile e la trattano come una schiava, facendole eseguire tutti i lavori domestici e non curandosi delle torture che le infliggono il fratellastro e la sorellastra. Un giorno però Michiko Malandro, una pericolosa criminale appena fuggita di prigione, entra con una moto nella casa e rapisce Hana, che finalmente riesce a scappare dall'odiata famiglia.

Deciso che il nuovo soprannome di Hana sarà Hatchin,[1] Michiko le spiega che ha deciso di prenderla con sé perché sa che una bambina di nome Hana con un tatuaggio sulla pancia le aveva salvato la vita; cerca così di farsi mostrare la pancia dalla bambina. Le racconta inoltre che suo padre era Hiroshi Morenos, un uomo molto affascinante, che viene dato per morto in un incidente da diversi anni, ma che Michiko intende ritrovare. Giunte in una cittadina e rifornitesi di cibo e benzina, le due vengono bloccate da Atsuko Jackson, poliziotta e vecchia rivale di Michiko, che cerca di catturarle con l'aiuto della polizia. Michiko e Hatchin riescono però a fuggire e si rimettono in viaggio.

Grazie al parere di una veggente, Michiko è estremamente convinta di poter ritrovare Hiroshi e si mette a cercarlo per la città utilizzando un disegno che lo raffigura. Nel frattempo Hatchin si fa assumere dallo scorbutico padrone di un ristorante: intende guadagnare la somma di denaro necessaria a pagare le scarpe che Michiko ha rubato per lei. Inseguendo due ladri rischia di venire uccisa proprio come aveva predetto la veggente, ma riesce poi a salvarsi grazie all'intervento di Michiko, che la porta poi nella casa dove pensa che viva Hiroshi. Dopo aver scoperto di essersi sbagliata, si infuria e maledice la vecchia veggente, nonostante non fossero le sue predizioni ad essere sbagliate ma soltanto il disegno che stava utilizzando.

Pepe è una spogliarellista che lavora per Rico, il capo delle favela di São Cabal, nel suo night club. La causa per cui Pepe è finita a São Cabal è semplice: vuole racimolare un po' di soldi per poi fuggire a São Paraíso insieme con Lulù, la sua sorella minore. Decide di ingannare Michiko dicendole di conoscere Hiroshi ma, non riuscendoci, deruba il suo datore di lavoro e fugge. Viene però fermata da dei bambini al servizio di Rico poco prima di lasciare la città.

Michiko visits her old friend Ivan to ask the whereabouts of a man named Satoshi, who might know where Hiroshi is. Thinking the task ahead to be dangerous, Michiko leaves Hatchin with Zelia Bastos at the orphanage where she grew up, for her safety.
