Original subtitles

[Ana in English] I want to hire you.

[Beth in Filipino] Ma'am, I'm sorry, but...

[in English] 100K per week.

[Ana] So, will you be my loyalty tester?

I'm sorry. I thought you were my wife.

I got Beth to be your physical therapist.

She's Uncle Mariano's PT, so if she's good enough for Aunt Mona,

then she's good enough for you.

I want you to find all the dirt you can on Benjamin Santos.

[Ben's former boss in Filipino] What would you like to know about Ben?

[Danny] Everything, Attorney.

-[Mara] Ben. -[Ben] Hello. What happened?

[Mara] You are needed here.

[Ben] Someone's keeping an eye on me.

I'll just deal with this bastard, and then we can meet up.

-[Ana] My husband went there? -[Beth] He did, ma'am.

But he left right away.

-Mara. -Come on, Ben.

How long are we going to hide like this?

[Ben] Are we good now?

[in English] Mara, everything is going to be okay.

[in Filipino] Are you sure?

Wouldn't it be better if we just believed that?

[Ben] Go on, then.

Go on inside now.

Take care of yourself.

You too, okay?

[phone ringing]

Benjamin.

[in English] Hello, Attorney.

[Ben's former boss] What's happening?

[in Filipino] Someone came by asking about you.

[low tense music playing]

Don't worry about it.

I'll handle this.

[in English] I'm okay, Attorney.

[in Filipino] Just stay safe, Benjamin.

I've got a bad feeling about this.

[theme music playing]

Hey, Beth, you mean she didn't believe that her husband isn't loyal?

You know, once a woman has a hunch, she won't let it go.

You're so lucky!

-You're rolling in cash, you lucky dog! -[chuckles]

Shut your trap, Bridge.

Lucky? I haven't even earned it, and it's already spent.

But it's true, though!

You know, you should've just taken me along.

Come on, no one's gonna go for you.

Yeah, like anyone's chasing you, either.

[Carlota] Maybe Attorney's weakness is the sweet, demure type.

Still, you should've brought me along.

Girl, he's smart. You think you can keep up?

Wow, you really think I'm that dumb?

Oh!

But of course, it was Elizabeth's charm

that won him over.

[Diane] Mm!

[Bridgette] If I were you, I'd give it to him real good.

What's with you two?

Oh! Think you're so perfect, babe?

[chuckles]

Hey, you two, lay off Elizabeth.

[Diane] The point is she's making good money, right?

Come on.

[Bridgette in English] Speaking of...

[in Filipino] Ladies, come get your stuff!

What new thing are you selling now?

Here, you can pay for it in installments.

[Tonyo laughing]

[Tonyo in English] Ben, you bastard.

[in Filipino] You chose Dad's therapist?

[Danny in English] Yes, sir.

[in Filipino] Sir? Should I keep following him?

[sniffles, clears throat]

-[in English] Sir. -Hmm?

[in Filipino] Should I keep tailing him?

Yes.

[in English] We need more evidence.

[Beth in Filipino] Just push through that, sir, then take a deep breath.

-There we go. -[breathes deeply]

[in English] Okay.

[Beth in Filipino] All set.

Oh, ma'am!

[Ben in English] Hi.

-[Ana] Hello. -[Ben] I'm sweaty. Super sweaty.

It's okay.

-Are you going now? -Yes.

[in Filipino] Are you just gonna be at the atelier today?

[in English] Yeah, super-packed with work.

[in Filipino] No need to drop me off. You and Beth just carry on.

-[in English] Okay. Have a good day. -Okay.

-I love you. Bye. -[Ana] I love you.

[Ben] Thanks, Nanny.

[Ben] Bye!

[liquid trickling]

[exclaims] Oh, my gosh.

-[Beth in Filipino] Oh, no! -[Ben] Oh, Beth?

-Sir! -[Ben] What happened?

I'm so sorry.

-[in English] Here, here. -Huh?

[in Filipino] Wipe yourself off.

Thank you, sir. Great, just great.

[sensual music playing]

-Now it's all sticky. -Want to change clothes?

Do you have a spare?

There's a room right there. You can go change.

Um...

Are you sure it's okay?

Of course. Better than walking around all sticky like that.

Go ahead, use the room.

All right. Excuse me, sir.

[in English] Hello, darling. Come on, let's go.

Oh, you look upset.

What's the problem?

-[in Filipino] Isn't it obvious? -Why?

[in English] Maybe it's because of what he saw.

[Mona] Why? What did he see?

[sighs] Proof.

That Ben might be having an affair with Beth.

-The new PT. -Oh, for God's sake.

-What? -Yes, I'm upset,

but not about that.

[in Filipino] It's about what you're up to.

[in English] Don't you have anything better to do?

[in Filipino] Have my people followed, and for what?

[in English] Pa, I don't want you to make a big mistake.

You're gonna appoint Ben CEO.

[in Filipino] If he'd cheat on his own wife, God knows what else he'd do.

I hired Ben because he wins cases for the azucarera.

Whatever marital problems he and Ana are having at home,

that's none of my business.

[in English] Will you talk some sense into your son?

[Mona] Mariano.

Maybe he has a point.

A point?

[in Filipino] You know Ben.

In all his time here, how many times has he pulled us through?

[in English] Besides, we both know that this useless son of ours

is doing all of this just to get the position

that he clearly did not work for.

[in Filipino] Is that how you see me?

That I just want to ruin your favorite employee's name?

[Mariano sighs]

[in English] Mariano, if this is true,

I am thinking of Ana.

[in Filipino] What will people say?

That we just let Ben get away with this mess?

[in English] I am so disappointed.

[sighs]

[in Filipino] We should call Ben so we can get to the bottom of this.

[Beth] Attorney.

I'll just get changed.

[Ben] Yeah, sure.

[low tense music playing]

[door creaks]

[sighs]

[phone beeps]

"Sir, MCS wants to meet you. ASAP."

Attorney.

[Ben] Beth, are you ready?

-Thank you. -Okay.

-[Ben clears throat] -[phone ringing]

[in English] Hello? Yes, okay, I'm on my way.

[in Filipino] Beth, have a snack first.

-Okay, sir. -I'll go ahead, okay?

-[in English] Thank you very much. Bye. -[Beth in Filipino] Take care.

[pensive music playing]

Yes, Ben is fond of fishing.

[Beth] I can see that in the attorney's posts.

Who is he with when he goes fishing?

Um, no one, usually.

That's great, ma'am. I know a little bit about fishing.

Is it okay if I go with him?

[in English] I suppose.

Just don't make it so obvious.

[in Filipino] Of course, ma'am, I just need your consent.

[in English] Just do what you have to do.

Later, he'll be fishing.

[door closes]

[staff] Miss Ana?

[in Filipino] You have a visitor.

Ana, dear.

[tense music playing]

[breathes deeply]

Juancho.

Greet your sister.

Ana.

[Mona in English] How can you do this, Ben?

Auntie, I...

I won't deny it, this is me.

But I did it on purpose.

[scoffs] Nonsense.

[Ben in Filipino] Because I knew that someone was following me.

Auntie. Sir.

I know Antonio is looking for dirt on me because...

he wants to ruin my reputation in your eyes.

[in English] You guys know me.

I love my wife so much.

I can't be so...

careless.

So, you wanted to do a background check on me,

so you hired an investigator who pretended

to be an interviewer for that AVP,

supposedly, that you were doing for me?

That is so amateur.

You didn't think I would notice that?

Antonio...

I'm smarter than that.

[suspenseful music playing]

[scoffs] Pa.

[in Filipino] I had him checked because I don't know him.

Okay? I just want to get to know him.

Enough.

-[in English] Ben, you may go. -Okay.

Thank you, sir.

Here's your phone.

I'm sorry, Auntie.

[breathing heavily]

[Reynaldo] Ana.

Ana.

[in Filipino] What do we have to talk about?

A lot of things, Ana.

Like, "How are you?"

"Are you married?"

I'm sorry for the many years that--

[in English] Cut the crap! Cut the crap!

Ana. [sighs]

[in Filipino] I've wanted to do this for a long time, Ana...

Please forgive me.

[in English] What... what are you doing? Stop! Stand up!

-[in Filipino] Ana, please forgive me-- -[in English] Stop! Stop!

Let go of me! What are you doing?

Get up!

[in Filipino] What kind of drama is this?

-Ana. -[in English] You...

you left us for another woman.

My brother died!

And then what?

[in Filipino] You just waltz right back in?

[in English] For what?

To talk it out?

No, no, no! Don't touch me!

-[in Filipino] Ana, please forgive m-- -[in English] No!

No! No amount of remorse can make up

for all the pain that you've caused us!

I have no space for you in my life!

[in Filipino] Leave.

Leave. And please...

don't you ever show yourself to my mother!

Ana, please forgive me.

[in English] Leave!

[in Filipino] Are you leaving, or should I call security?

Zia!

Zia!

[in English] Escort him out!

[in Filipino] Sir, you need to leave.

[in English] Leave! Leave! Leave!

[Zia in Filipino] Sir, you need to leave.

[Reynaldo sniffles]

-[Ana panting] -[object clattering]

[Ana sniffles]

[panting]

-[phone beeps] -[bell ringing]

There we go.

[in English] Hello, friends! Welcome back!

[in Filipino] We have new designs and new styles!

[Carlota, softly] Doesn't Angel owe you 5K because of those bags?

Lota, why are you whispering?

I'm hiding from my boyfriend.

I'm getting tired because of him!

Just ask me another time.

Why don't you just call her

without mentioning that you're going to collect the debt?

I'll do it. She might not answer if it's Bridge.

I'll call her right now.

[recording in English] The subscriber cannot be reached.

Please try again later.

[in Filipino] She won't pick up.

Bridge, do you know where Angel's apartment is

and where her mother lives?

Ah... yes.

[Diane] Are you free later? Do you want to go there?

[Carlota] Go.

-Okay. -[Diane] All right, bye.

[Ben] I'm already at the wharf.

Take care on your way home later.

[Beth] Attorney!

Beth?

-Oh, hi, Beth. -You're here!

What are you doing here?

Well...

I found out that this is the place to visit.

Anyway, aren't you going to rest your shoulder?

Well...

I don't think this will affect it.

Besides, this is my favorite hobby.

[soft chuckle] Well, all right, then.

I'll go on the other side so I won't disturb you.

You won't.

Beth.

[Beth] Yes?

So, you know how to fish?

[awkward chuckle] Not very well. Is it hard?

You're supposed to just drop the bait into the water, then...

glug-glug-glug, the fish will eat it.

-[Beth] That easy, right? -[soft chuckle]

[in English] There are techniques.

[Ana] Ma!

[sighs] Oh, my God.

Mom, I have to tell you something.

And I know this will come as a shock,

[in Filipino] but it's better for you to hear it from me than anyone else.

Your father came here.

[tense music playing]

[in English] What?

[in Filipino] Before he went to you, he came here first.

[scoffs]

Did he tell you what he needed from us after all these years?

[Ben in English] You open a can of worms.

[in Filipino] This is how to put bait on a hook.

Just enough to entice the fish.

Not too much,

because they'll just feed without you catching them.

[in English] It's a matter of, like, how much or how little.

A little goes a long way.

[in Filipino] Do you want to throw it?

-[soft chuckle] -Do you?

You do it, Attorney. You're better than me.

You can do it. It's easy.

Just hold it here.

Then you throw.

[in English] Ready?

Okay.

[in Filipino] Are you sure I can do it?

-Yes. -Okay. Whoops.

-Step aside. -[chuckles]

It's simple. Just throw it.

[Ben] There we go.

Just let it float.

Just let it be.

It seems so easy for you, Attorney, doesn't it?

[both chuckle softly]

All right, just wait.

I hope something takes the bait.

You'll definitely catch something.

Do you need a hat?

-No, I'm fine. -Are you sure?

Thank you.

Okay.

If it moves, it means something took the bait.

[in English] Good luck, Beth.

-[Beth] Attorney. -[in Filipino] Yes?

-It's moving. -That fast?

-[Ben] Wow! -[Beth] It feels heavy!

[chuckles] Just hold on to it.

-[Beth] What? -[Ben] Go ahead.

-You got it? -Can you help me?

[Ben] Yes.

Okay, go.

Just turn the reel.

-Okay. -That's it.

[in English] Go ahead. Go ahead, Beth.

[in Filipino] It's heavy.

[in English] Go, go. I got this.

[in Filipino] All right, I'll keep holding.

-Okay. -[in English] Good job, wow!

Wait, wait. Hold on, sorry.

[Ben in Filipino] See? All right, keep going.

[in English] Keep going, Beth. Keep going.

[in Filipino] Attorney, it's big.

[both chuckle]

Wow!

-[in English] Good job, Beth. -[in Filipino] There.

[in English] Great catch! [in Filipino] This one's big.

-You're good. -[chuckles]

You caught a big one.

Attorney, you're the one who caught it, not me.

-Wow. -[chuckles]

[in English] Good job, Beth.

-[Ben in Filipino] This is you. -Fine.

[Ben grunts]

-[Beth] Let's let go of it. -[Ben] Huh?

Why?

I just wanted to try it.

I wanted to see if I could catch it.

But I don't want to eat it.

Are you sure?

-Yeah. -Okay.

[water splashes]

This was fun, Attorney.

[in English] Yeah. Did you enjoy?

[in Filipino] Does Miss Ana enjoy this stuff too?

[in English] Well, she tried.

But not her thing.

-Nice one, Beth. -[soft chuckle]

[in Filipino] Thank you, Attorney.

[in English] Ma, what is it?

[in Filipino] Did he tell you what he wanted after all these years?

[in English] What does he want?

Ma.

[Imelda] Oh, why don't you ask him?

Ana.

[low tense music playing]

[in Filipino] What's this?

[in English] Well... your father wanted to reconcile.

-He's staying in town. -Why?

Why not?

Are you really out of your mind, Ma?

[in Filipino] Have you forgotten what we went through when he left us?

Yes!

[in English] He betrayed me!

How can I forget that?

Every single fucking day!

[in Filipino] I could never forget that.

You have no idea how much it hurts to be pushed aside for someone else!

[in English] So don't deny me the pleasure of seeing him beg for my forgiveness!

[in Filipino] You've got the nerve to come here!

You even brought your bastard son with you!

You truly are shameless!

Imelda, I understand why you're angry.

Imelda.

Imelda--

[Imelda grunts]

You'll never understand how I feel!

I hate you so much! I hate you!

Imelda, please forgive me.

I will do anything for you.

Imelda.

Just take me back again, and my son too.

[Reynaldo in English] Imelda, we're still married.

When I'm gone, all properties go to you.

[in Filipino] Nothing will go to Juancho. He won't get a penny.

Please, Imelda. Forgive me!

[sobbing]

[laughs]

[in English] Look at yourself.

You're broke, and you're dying.

[sniffles, in Filipino] You know what?

Karma really exists in this world. [sniffles]

[Imelda sobbing]

[Imelda wailing]

You don't know how it feels...

to see someone begging at your feet. [deep inhale]

[in English] It feels so good!

[whispers] It feels so good.

That's it?

That's the reason you're taking him back?

Because it feels good?

There must be some other reason.

What?

[in Filipino] I just told you!

[in English] This is insane!

[line ringing]

[breathing heavily]

Ben!

[phone chimes]

[Beth in Filipino] We're fishing right now.

[brakes squeal]

[in English] Fuck!

[crying]

[crying continues]

[Beth in Filipino] Attorney, I wish I had brought all my friends.

If they were here, no fish would be left in the sea.

[chuckles]

In fishing, you're lucky to have caught

-just one. -Thank you.

Okay.

[in English] Congratulations. Good job.

Welcome to fishing.

Attorney.

[Ben] Yes?

[in Filipino] Let's get coffee. My treat.

-[in English] Sure. -[in Filipino] Really?

[Ben] Mm. [chuckles]

[in English] Yes.

-[in Filipino] All right. Let's go. -Your treat. Hop in the car.

-Thanks, Attorney. -Come on.

So... you said your dad taught you how to fish.

Yes. We used to go fishing.

But that was a long time ago. I was just a kid then.

[in English] Oh, so you don't go fishing with him anymore?

[in Filipino] Mm... My parents are separated.

They have their own families now.

Then...

it was just my siblings and me.

But it's okay.

It's better than having your parents around, but...

we're all miserable together.

Are you the eldest?

Yes.

Then I have a younger sister.

And the youngest is a boy.

Okay, where are they? Manila?

The youngest is in Manila.

My younger sister, Megan,

she's working in Hong Kong.

Oh, okay.

Not that far.

[Beth] Mm... How about you, Attorney?

How many siblings do you have?

[in English] Uh... me? [slurps]

[in Filipino] I don't have siblings.

I'm an only child.

Oh...

That seems sad.

[Ben chuckles softly]

[in English] Anyway...

[in Filipino] Your sister in Hong Kong, Megan, right?

How's her situation there?

The thing is, Attorney, it's pretty hard.

If there is a problem, you can tell me.

I have a friend in OWWD.

Really, Attorney?

Okay, okay. Thanks.

[Ben] Are you sure?

I can drive you home. I can drop you off at the plaza.

Attorney, it's okay. I have to be somewhere.

Come on.

[camera shutter clicking]

Attorney, you already said thank you.

-Okay. -[chuckles]

Okay, bye. Take care.

-Take care. -[in English] Okay, thanks.

[in Filipino] So... is that it?

He just helped you fish?

[Beth] Yes, ma'am.

The whole time, Attorney was just sitting.

Then we had coffee before we went home.

[Ana in English] Coffee?

[in Filipino] Yes, ma'am.

[in English] No one said anything about having coffee.

[in Filipino] I'm just trying to get to know him better--

[in English] Anyway...

[sighs]

[in Filipino] That's my husband for you. [in English] He's very accommodating.

[in Filipino] Ma'am, shall we keep going?

[exhales]

Yes.

Uh, ma'am.

The payment for next week...

I'm hoping you can send it now.

[in English] Yes.

I'll send you the payment.

[sighs]

[Bridgette] Angel!

[Carlota in Filipino] The windows are closed.

[Bridgette] Angel!

I don't hear anything. Do you think she's asleep?

Okay then. She's asleep. Let's go!

No, no. Let's wake her up.

-[knocking on door] -[Diane] Angel.

Angel.

[Carlota] Do you still use this?

No, but I've saved points on it.

[Bridgette] What now?

Does that still work?

-[exclaims] -[lock clicks]

Huh? Oh...

Who's the brilliant one now?

Fine. Just open it.

[tense music playing]

What happened here?

Angel?

-Angel! -Carlota, go in there.

See what's inside.

Nothing.

Maybe she got robbed.

No, Bridge.

It doesn't look like she's been robbed.

Someone fought here and made a mess.

[in English] Hey, stranger.

[in Filipino] You didn't answer your phone!

[Ana breathes shakily]

[in English] I was fishing. What's wrong?

[in Filipino] Ben, Papa came back.

He came back with his son.

[in English] I don't want this. I don't want them.

[in Filipino] I don't want them to be a part of my life.

[sobbing]

[in English] Baby, I'm here.

[in Filipino] Hush now.

[Ben in English] Hush now.

-It's okay. I'm here, I'm here, I'm here. -[somber music playing]

Here.

I hope this helps.

[in Filipino] How can Mama take him back?

[in English] How does a woman forgive a man who cheated on her?

[in Filipino] A man who has left you.

A man who chose to be with someone else.

After you gave him everything.

[in English] Your love.

Your loyalty.

Your all.

-[line ringing] -[in Filipino] Ben, pick up the phone.

Ben, pick up the phone.

Pick up the phone, Ben.

[breathes deeply]

If that happened to me, I don't think I could handle it.

[sighs]

I wouldn't know what to do.

I don't know what I could do.

Ana.

Babe.

Ana.

That won't ever happen to us.

Never.

Hey.

[in English] I love you.

I love you very much.

[keys jangling]

[switch clicks]

[ominous music playing]

[Angel sobbing]

[Angel] I'm so sorry.

[in Filipino] Bridgette, please, help me.

[Angel sniffles]

Help me, please. I don't know who else to ask for help.

[Angel sobs]

[Mara panting]

[anxious groan]

[anxious groan] Where is she?

Where are you?

Where are you, where are you? Where are you?

[phone trilling]

[joints cracking]

[phone trilling]

[Beth in English] Attorney, hello!

[in Filipino] Thank you for accepting my follow request.

You can also follow me back...

so you can see the daily exercises

and therapy tips that I post in my stories.

[phone chimes]

[helper] Is Sir Ben arriving, or do you want to eat first?

-We'll eat together. -Okay.

-Place it there. -[phone chimes]

[in English] Sorry, sorry. [chuckles]

[Beth in Filipino] Attorney accepted my follow request.

He also followed me back.

He was also replying earlier.

[footsteps approaching]

[tense music sting]

-[in English] You're home! -Hi!

-What's that? -What?

That. What was that? You look stressed.

[in Filipino] Just a client with several demands. Let's eat.

-[in English] Come on! -Okay.

-Yeah, sit. -Yeah, sure.

[in Hiligaynon] Cedes, we'll eat now!

-[Cedes in English] Sir. -Thank you.

[utensils clinking]

Thank you, thank you.

-Rice? Yeah. -Mm-hmm.

-[Ana clears throat] -Okay.

Thank you.

Wow!

[chuckles]

Wow...

-You want some? Okay. -Mm-hmm.

[insects chirping]

[lighter clicks]

[exhaling]

[unsettling music playing]

-Mia? -Yes, Nurse Mara?

-[in Filipino] What's her condition? -[in English] Psychosis.

[Mia in Filipino] Her violent tendencies are different.

-Who brought her? -This man.

-All right, thank you. -Sure.

[keys jangling]

[unsettling music playing]

[Beth] What are you doing here?

What are you doing here? Huh?

Stop pretending. I know you want this.

Don't come near me.

-[scoffs] -Don't come near me!

Beth, Beth, Beth.

-Don't come near me. -It's just the two of us--

-Don't touch me! -No one else is here.

-It's just us. -Stop it!

-No one else is here. -I said don't touch me!

-Stop-- -Let me go!

-Stop fighting. -Help! Help!

-Stop resisting! -Let me go!

-[Ben] Beth? -Pervert!

-You're a pervert! -[knocking on door]

[Tonyo groans]

Help!

-[Tonyo chuckling] -Help!

[Ben] Beth?

-[Beth breathing heavily] -Open--

What did he do?

He came inside while I was changing clothes,

and he tried to kiss me!

[scoffs]

Why?

You jealous?

[in English] What's wrong with you?

[Tonyo scoffs]

[in Filipino] What do you prefer? [in English] Sexual harassment?

Acts of lasciviousness?

We can file a case against you.

-[in Filipino] You could be imprisoned. -Do it!

[in English] I dare you. Do it!

-[in Filipino] You bastard! -[Tonyo scoffs]

What's happening?

I don't want to cause trouble, but your son is a pervert!

[Ben in English] Excuse me.

-[in Filipino] What happened? -Beth?

[Mariano] What was that?

[Tonyo] It's nothing, Pa.

[in English] It's nothing.

[in Filipino] Really, Tonyo?

Even a physical therapist?

Aren't you ashamed?

-What did you say? -[sniffles]

-[sniffles] -[Tonyo scoffs]

[Tonyo exhales, sniffles]

[low tense music playing]

Say that again.

What was it?

Ashamed? Huh?

-Am I embarrassing? Huh, Natalie? -[breathing shakily]

Repeat what you just said.

-Repeat what you just said! -[sniffles, whimpers]

-Repeat what you just said! -[whimpering]

Repeat what you just said!

-[slaps] -[Natalie groaning]

[Natalie whimpering]

Stop it.

[Natalie crying]

Stop it? What do you mean, stop? Huh?

-[grunting] -[Natalie groaning]

[Natalie] Enough! Stop! Antonio!

Mom...

[sniffles]

[phone ringing]

Hello, Megan?

Beth... [sobs]

[Beth] Megan.

Turn-- turn on your video! Now! Turn on your video!

-[crying, breathing shakily] -[somber music playing]

Beth, I don't want to.

[crying]

Are they beating you again? Huh?

Are your employers beating you again?

Damn those bastards!

Damn those bastards...

[Megan crying] Beth...

-I don't want this anymore. -Megan...

Can't you leave? Escape? Go to the embassy, please!

They can't keep making you their punching bag!

Megan!

-Megan! -Beth...

I don't want this anymore.

[sniffles] Megan!

-Beth? -[breathing heavily]

Attorney. [sniffles]

[in English] You okay?

[in Filipino] Who's getting beaten up?

I know the regional director of the Overseas Welfare Desk.

-Here, drink. -Thank you.

[exhales, sniffles]

It's a bit far from here, but you can go there.

If you want, you can mention my name.

[in English] Well, let me guess.

[in Filipino] So, your plan is

to pay a huge sum to your sister's company.

You will also have to pay the penalties.

Those fees can reach half a million.

And your sister's employer even gets to escape the law.

-[somber music playing] -[sniffles]

I can call someone I know.

[breathes heavily]

Attorney, the truth is...

I-I feel bad troubling you, but...

I'm going to swallow my pride now because we really need help.

[breathes heavily, sniffles]

I don't want my sister's situation to get worse.

[sobs, sniffles]

I'm sorry.

[in English] Calm down. Calm down.

[in Filipino] Beth... you have to be strong.

I'll help you.

Thank you.

[in English] But first, try to calm down.

[in Filipino] Thank you, Attorney.

[Mara in English] Emergency!

[in Filipino] Let's meet as soon as possible.

[Ben] Okay.

Let's meet near the Overseas Welfare Desk in San Isidro.

[Ana sighs]

Drive carefully. You have a passenger with you.

[Ana breathes deeply]

[in English] Of course. I love coming home to you.

Okay.

-You'd better go. -Okay.

[in Filipino] Beth, I really hope your sister's situation gets fixed.

Ma'am... thank you.

This is such a big help to us.

-[in English] Go! Okay. -Okay, I love you.

[Ana in Filipino] All right.

-Take care. -Beth?

[in English] Bye.

[engine starts]

[in Filipino] You okay?

I'm just nervous, Attorney.

I keep thinking about...

what could happen to my sister.

Megan.

[in English] It's okay.

[in Filipino] There's a solution to everything.

I've been tackling this problem on my own for a long time.

This is the first time I've felt that I'm not alone.

[soft melancholy music playing]

Thank you, Attorney.

To you and Miss Ana.

This is such a huge favor for me.

[chuckles softly, sniffles]

[tense music sting]

[suspenseful music playing]

I'm really sorry.

With the number of OFWs we have in our country,

some cases really get overlooked.

But now that we're here, Jake,

we can address things properly, right?

-[Jake] Yes, of course, Attorney. -[in English] Okay, great.

[in Filipino] From now on,

you won't be alone in handling the process.

We'll document your sister's case today

and endorse it at our Hong Kong office and the Consulate.

[in English] They'll conduct a welfare check

and arrange for repatriation ASAP.

[in Filipino] I-I don't need to pay for it, do I?

No, Beth. This is free of charge.

Thank you very much. Thank you, really.

-[Jake] Of course. It's no problem. -Thank you.

[in English] All right, Jake, sounds good. Thank you.

Beth.

[in Filipino] I'm going to buy my wife something.

Um...

can I leave you here for a bit?

Sure thing, Attorney. I need to sign some papers.

[in English] Are you sure you're gonna be okay?

-[in Filipino] Of course! -Okay.

Just text me when you're done.

-I will. -Okay?

[in English] I'll see you.

-[in Filipino] Thank you, Attorney. -[in English] No problem.

Jake will take care of you.

[in Filipino] She got away.

I already had people look for her, but...

she won't listen to anyone, not even me.

[Ben clears throat]

Mara, you have to find her.

We can't lose her.

Okay?

I'll send you money. Get more men to help you look for her.

Wait for my call.

[sniffles] Ben...

Maybe you should look for her yourself.

[camera shutter clicking]

[low suspenseful music playing]

Mara, let go of me.

-You're being careless. -I'm just worried.

Because Ben... she might kill herself.

[Ben] She's not going to kill herself.

She ran away because she was looking for something.

"Ma'am, I saw--"

Beth?

Attorney!

Are you done?

Yeah, I just finished.

Oh. But I thought you were gonna send a message?

Ah! Yes. I was just about to.

Okay.

[in English] Are you okay?

[in Filipino] Yep! Never better.

Then are you good to go?

-Yes! -I'll drive you home.

[exclaims]

-Hey! Watch where you're going! -Sorry, Miss!

-[boy] Sir. -[in English] Very good.

[in Filipino] Oh, sir.

I already took the money inside the wallet.

Oh, no problem.

[chuckling]

[deep inhale] Oh, Ben, Ben, Ben.

See?

I told you I'm a real person.

You know, I actually should be the one to be suspicious of you.

Who knows? You could be married.

I told you, I'm not!

You better not be.

[laptop chiming]

I'll get going then.

Let's meet up soon. I have to take an important call.

-Bye. -[phone beeps]

-[keyboard key clicks] -Yeah? Hey, Beth.

[Beth] Diane, I think my loyalty testing will be over soon.

What?

[sighs]

Attorney Ben seems to have another woman.

I saw it.

Hold up.

What happened?

What happened?

Um... Attorney and I...

went to Jake's office.

We reported my sister's case.

Attorney, your husband, was a huge help.

I'm not talking about that.

I'm asking about what happened today with you two.

Um...

he left me at the office for a bit, then...

-he left for a while. -[phone clatters]

Oh, sorry about that.

[Ana] Where did he go?

Oh, he went to buy something for you.

Yes, yes. I received it.

[in English] And then what? Um...

[in Filipino] Did he take advantage of you?

What?

No, he didn't.

So... what?

I saw him.

Coming out of a coffee shop.

That's all.

Then he drove me home.

[Ana sighs]

-[in English] Noted, sir. -Thank you very much.

-Sir. -Ben!

Ben, Ben, Ben.

[Tonyo grunts]

[in Filipino] Is there something you need? 'Cause...

-I'm just about to leave. -[scoffs]

[in English] Busy?

[Tonyo breathes deeply]

[in Filipino] Papa's birthday is right around the corner.

The announcement of the next CEO is coming soon too.

[in English] Yes, of course I know that, but...

thanks for the reminder.

Resign, Ben.

[chuckles]

[chuckles]

-Why would I do that? -[sniffles] Well...

[in Filipino] there's something I know that...

I won't mention.

But if push comes to shove, I'll spill it.

Okay, Antonio.

-I don't have time for this. -[chuckles]

-Mara Lacaba. -[Ben clears throat]

Mara Lacaba, Mara Lacaba.

[chuckles]

Is she your accomplice in what you're hiding, Ben?

Antonio, I have no idea what you're talking about.

[Tonyo chuckles]

Is that so?

You're as pale as a ghost. Hmm?

How did you meet that Mara anyway?

[in English] Mara, the psychiatric nurse.

[in Filipino] I know how.

[Tonyo] Hmph.

I'm starting to see who you really are. [sniffles]

Don't try me.

[in English] Resign.

[Tonyo chuckling]

[door opens]

[door closes]

-[screaming, grunting] -[suspenseful music playing]

[grunting, choking]

[engine starts]

-[gun cocks] -[in Filipino] Have you lost it? Huh?

Put it away!

Don't!

[groaning]

[groans]

[breathing shakily]

[breathing heavily]

[groans, breathing heavily]

[Tonyo groaning]

[Mona] Antonio just got back.

He didn't know anything about what happened here.

Maybe Ben did it.

[Natalie] No one else would do this to my husband.

[Ana in English] Let's end the loyalty testing.

[in Filipino] You don't have to seduce my husband anymore.

[officer] Sir, there's blood over here.

It could be evidence.

[screams]

[inspector] May we call you in for questioning?

I don't want to go back to that mansion, Diane!

I'm never going back there.

-[in English] About? -[in Filipino] Your kidnapping.

If I were you, I'd go into hiding.

[Bridgette] The person hunting you will get tired of it soon.

They'll just look for another woman as a replacement.

[in English] Ana, this is big.

[Mona in Filipino] Tell us the truth!

-[indistinct clamoring] -[gun cocks]

You bastard! Let go of me!
