(Intro music)

(PREVIOUSLY)

ADAM: I want to marry Chloe.

(intense music)

ADAM: May I?

BENJO: Absolutely...

EMIL: Push...

We're already considered a real family.

Chloe... we already have a child.

We're finally a family.

CHLOE: Emil, you have been.

You've been a real family for a long time.

Even before Christian,

you already were a real family.

BENJO: Because of that thesis...

we really got to know ourselves.

We realized who we really are.

BENJO: I wonder where Nanay Edna is? She's supposed to be here by now.

EMIL: That's what I was wondering too. But, you know how busy she is these days.

I bet she's on her way though.

She confirmed she's coming earlier.

(knocking)

EMIL: I bet that's her.

That's my mom, let me open the door for her.

(Opening credits)

EMIL: This way, Mom. (Emil chuckling)

Benjo's been waiting.

NANAY EDNA: Hello Benjo. One moment, let me take off my heels, they've been a pain.

EMIL: Let me do it.

NANAY EDNA: Take it off first.

I went to a lot of impoverished areas.

EMIL (chuckling): You seem very tired.

NANAY EDNA: You bet.

BENJO: Great to see you again, I missed you.

NANAY EDNA: I missed you both as well.

Getting more handsome every time I visit.

It's just that...

BENJO: Something bothering you?

NANAY EDNA (sighs): Yes, ahhh...

BENJO: So, how have you been?

NANAY EDNA: I'm so tired because I've been to my various charitable events.

You know I'm always busy as the first lady of Manila.

(Emil & Benjo laughing good-naturedly)

NANAY EDNA: You both know that... Oh, Benjo... you know I have a lot of charities...

so, before I leave, I will pass by your refrigerator...

I will just raid whatever is there.

I know you are rich. So, you can just go and grab more.

Besides, your branded clothes just like this one?

BENJO: Huh?

NANAY EDNA: You have to give me some.

For my charity events.

You have to be empathic to the squatters of Manila,

they can't afford to buy clothes like this.

BENJO: Ahhhh... EMIL: Okay Mom, let's see what we can find...

NANAY EDNA: I'm not talking about your cheap clothes Emil,

not like Benjo's. They're all branded and imported.

The poor of Manila will be so pleased if I will give them those.

Quality goods... they will be ecstatic.

Do you get my idea?

(Emil subconsciously laughs)

BENJO: Well, okay.

NANAY EDNA: First lady... Mayor's image will be very good.

(Benjo laughs)

BENJO: By the way, where is Tatay (Dad)?

NANAY EDNA: Wait, well he had a conference with the president.

BENJO: Oh... what a busy man.

NANAY EDNA: I am sure he will be here in a moment.

BENJO: I have been meaning to ask this question but I just couldn't find the right timing. So, how did you guys really meet?

(Nanay Edna laughs)

NANAY EDNA (giddy): You really had to ask that?

But, remember when Mighty died?

(sobbing) Mighty is gone.

BENJO (whispering): Who is Mighty?

EMIL: The fighting cock.

Nay...

NANAY EDNA: Because...

there was this cockfight inside the cemetery because it's illegal to do it at the arena due to the pandemic.

BENJO: And?

NANAY EDNA: Mighty was winning,

he was closing in for the kill towards the weak opponent...

...he bumped his head hard at the edge of the concrete tomb.

Mighty was dead on the spot.

BENJO: What? EMIL: The cock died.

(Nanay Edna sobbing)

NANAY EDNA: You know, I only get the money I use to support my kids from Mighty's battles.

At least, Emil is a scholar.

What will I do with his two brothers now?

His brothers won't have anything for tuition now.

That has been worrying me.

What do I do now?

I need to buy a new cock!

(Emil & Benjo laughs) NANAY EDNA: Yes, remember that? Remember I even cooked a stew out of Mighty's remains?

EMIL: Take my word for it, my Mom's stew is tasty.

BENJO: Chicken stew, let's go.

NANAY EDNA: You see, I can't bear to eat my pet.

Mighty!!!

EMIL: Mom, is this Mighty?

NANAY EDNA: Just keep on eating...

I can't bear to see you taking a bite off Mighty.

I gave some of that stew to Mayor,

...and then...

EMIL & BENJO: What happened?

NANAY EDNA: You know how I cook, I do some hocus-pocus over it.

BRGY SECURITY: What's this? Is this delicious? Oh, chicken stew!

NANAY EDNA: Yes.

SECURITY: Wow, this is my favorite. Especially with some lime and fish sauce.

So mouthwatering.

NANAY EDNA: That stew was a potion.

So, he went to see me every night in Bulacan.

Believe me...

... every night!

At first, he was just looking through the window...

EMIL: And?

NANAY EDNA: Of course, I peered back at him...

(laughing)

You know how efficient he is...

I just came to visit Captain...

SECURITY: But I am not a Captain...

I am just a barangay security...

NANAY EDNA: You never know, in the next election, you will be voted as the next captain.

SECURITY: You mean I can be captain?

NANAY EDNA: With your stance and discipline, of course.

So, from security to councilor to captain and finally to the vice mayor...

...and the Mayor died.

EMIL: So, as a rule of succession, he became the Mayor.

NANAY EDNA: And that is our love story.

Wait, you asked me to come here though you know that I have so many events.

Why? Do you need anything?

(Benjo and Emil stuttering)

BENJO: We invited you because we needed a favor.

There is going to be a wedding.

NANAY EDNA: A wedding?

Is that between two guys?

You know that is not possible.

Wait a minute...

Wait... are you both getting married?

EMIL & BENJO (self-consciously): Oh no, it's not going to be us...

EMIL: It's not us, Mom, we are fine as we are.

BENJO: Yes. (both giggling)

NANAY EDNA: Is that so?

Well, that's within Mayor's jurisdiction anyway.

So, okay, let us talk to him.

BENJO: So all we have to do is wait for Tatay (Dad).

NANAY EDNA: So, tell me about you both.

BENJO: We are doing great.

NANAY EDNA: Is it delicious?

BENJO: Ahmmm, delicious... what?

NANAY EDNA: The food that you eat here.

EMIL: Of course we eat good food.

NANAY EDNA (gesturing towards Benjo): Everything you put in your mouths.

EMIL & BENJO (awkwardly): Ummm, of course... it's tasty.

NANAY EDNA: Besides here... this too!

(Emil & Benjo laughs)

EMIL: Mom, I'm the only one allowed to eat that.

(knocking)

BENJO: Let me get the door.

That should be Dad.

NANAY EDNA: Son, you... EMIL: I miss you Mom.

NANAY EDNA: How are you Emil, you look so handsome!

You don't smell like smegma anymore.

EMIL: Of course Mom.

NANAY EDNA: Remember when you were a kid I used to clean that?

And I even cleaned it again at night so it wouldn't smell.

I have been telling you to get circumcised but you wouldn't.

You were just too lazy.

EMIL: Mom...

NANAY EDNA: You knew I was both mother and father in our household so I couldn't do everything...

you should have found ways to get yourself circumcised.

EMIL: Mom, I'm a grown man and I know how to clean what needs to be cleaned.

And that's what Benjo actually wants.

(Mother and son laughing)

That's why I don't need to be cut.

NANAY EDNA: You want to know a secret?

EMIL: Secret? There's still something I don't know?

NANAY EDNA: That's also what Mayor wants.

That's why we get a long so well.

So, until now I clean.

Yours was a good practice.

Like mother like son.

Daughter? ... you're not a daughter?

You crack me up. (laughing)

(unintelligible chatter)

BENJO: Good day Dad.

MAYOR: Bless you...

So how is everyone?

I heard you made a very good speech earlier.

NANAY EDNA: You know me when it comes to speeches.

By the way, thank you because finally the cockpit arena has been approved.

Yes, there is going to be a cock fighting arena here in Manila.

Yes, and I will call it the Mighty Cockfighting Arena.

(laughing)

MAYOR: And there is going to be a Derby in Manila.

In honor of the memory of Mighty.

That's where our love story started.

NANAY EDNA (loud whisper): Did you clean?

MAYOR: Of course...

...very clean.

BENJO: How is everything Mayor?

MAYOR: Doing good. We can't do anything about the fact that the former mayor died.

So now I am the Mayor.

We don't know who is next.

BENJO: You were very lucky Mayor.

MAYOR: And here is my lucky charm.

BENJO: Well, we invited you over because we have a huge favor to ask.

We have a friend who is getting married.

As the Mayor, we wanted you to officiate.

MAYOR: According to the new law, anyone could get married.

Two men, two women, or any gender or preference.

Lizards, pigs or whatnot (jokingly).

Yes, SOGIE 8.2.

NANAY EDNA: So, it's possible...

MAYOR: It is very possible.

BENJO: That's great.

MAYOR: Anyway, who is getting married? Do I know them?

EMIL & BENJO: You know them very well.

NANAY EDNA: And they want you to marry them.

BENJO: Would that be okay?

MAYOR: Of course, I'm not only efficient, I'm an official too.

As the Mayor that is part of my responsibilities.

BENJO: Thank you so much. And Mom, we have another request, can you be one of the godmothers?

NANAY EDNA: Me? Of course, it's an honor!

Everyone who gets married nowadays want me as one of the godmothers.

But I always get emotional when I see someone get married.

Because I always remember our marriage.

And of course our honeymoon.

Because this guy here, he didn't know how to clean at first.

I had to clean it before we could do anything.

MAYOR: You're embarassing me.

NANAY EDNA: No, that is not embarassing, Emil is the same way.

MAYOR: So it runs in the family.

(everyone laughs)

(ambient sound)

LINDEN: Roast pig? From who?

For the newlyweds? Amazing!

BENJO: I remember our exchange of vows.

But it was not like this... there was no one just us.

(sweet talk)

LINDEN: Wow, I have been looking for the two of you and I find you here flirting with each other?

You do remember that you're both Gentlemen of Honor?

EMIL: Of course we know...

BENJO: It's in the invitation remember?

And correction...

It says there, Maids of Honor!

(Emil and Benjo laughs jokingly)

LINDEN: Gentlemen or Maids, get off your butts because it will be embarrassing if the bride arrives before you both do.

(Linden leaves muttering to himself)

(soft musical scoring)

LINDEN: What are you doing? The bride is about to arrive and this has not been completed yet? Where are your people?

(staff mumbling)

LINDEN: I am going crazy with the irresponsibility of people here.

Minerva, you are getting into my nerves.

MAYOR: Linden!

LINDEN: Mayor, how are you?

MAYOR: I'm doing just great. There is no traffic because I had the road closed off.

(both laughs)

LINDEN: Much appreciated Mayor.

MAYOR: By the way, all the documents you sent to my office for permits and approval. They have all been approved.

LINDEN: Really?

MAYOR: Yes, I signed it already. I will have my secretary bring them here.

But please remind Benjo to donate to my wife's, his mother-in-law's charities.

LINDEN: We just donated some relief goods to Madame Edna.

MAYOR: You did?

LINDEN: Yes, a lot.

MAYOR: Tell him to send more.

We with the capacity to help the poor should always make sure to give more.

LINDEN: I will call Benjo right now Mayor.

Now, where on Earth is that wedding planner?

You! Aren't you the wedding planner? Then why are you flirting there? Give me that! You are good for nothing!

Aren't you supposed to organize this?

Good for nothing...

Who are the godmothers?

- We are!

LINDEN: Miss Devorah?

NANAY EDNA: I think you mean me!

LINDEN: Oh my... Nanay Edna!

(soft romantic music)
