Dona Irene, a Porteira

Augusto's forgetfulness leads to an encounter with Dona Irene, the porteira. They go on to discuss some problems in the apartment building.

Note: A porteira is similar to a concierge / janitor / caretaker for an entire building, but nowadays this is a dying profession. The role was often filled by older Portuguese women.
