The World War I began to charge its price in Santos Dumont, to the point of being arrested for a misunderstanding of the police during the development of the paradoxical cannon. Back in Brazil, with the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, he does not accept retirement, he builds The Enchanted, where he invents the Martian converter that is tested by Yolanda Penteado.
