The expression "Inês é morta" means "now it's too late" for something that needs to be done. It has its origins in the story of Inês de Castro, lover of the future King of Portugal, Pedro I. She was murdered by order of Afonso IV, Pedro's father, before the marriage was recognized. After Inês' death, Pedro became king and recognized the union of the two, but it was too late to save her life. Therefore, the expression became known as "É tarde. Inês é morta".
