Are you an applicant?

I'm a driver. Checker.

Let me see your resume.

Show it to her, sir.

Good day, ma'am.

Edgar Bautista.

28 years old.

Single.

From San Pablo.

Worked as an ordinary seaman.

That's right, ma'am.

I spent three years on the ship.

But I come home every year.

What do you know about being a checker-driver?

I can drive well.

And I'm licensed too.

As for being a checker,

I'm a fast learner

and it's easy for to love

the job.

Can you start immediately?

Right now?

Next week.

On Monday.

You're a stay-in.

Report to Villa Sanchez.

So, I'm hired?

You don't want it?

Thank you so much, ma'am!

I don't know how I can repay you.

Oh.

Sorry.

Alright, ma'am.

I'll be back on Monday.

Edgar!

Allen?

- Allen! - How are you, bro?

It's been a while.

Seems like you haven't changed a bit.

Where have you been?

I just came from the warehouse. I applied for work.

I thought you were at sea.

That's the last I heard of you.

Oh, yeah.

Well, I just thought I should get work while waiting for the agency's call.

Did Ms. Luisa hire you?

Of course.

Actually, she told me to report back to Villa Sanchez.

I'll be a checker-driver.

What about you?

I'm doing good, brother.

I work for the Sanchez family too.

I deliver rice to town.

For how long?

Two years now.

Hold on.

I need to hand in my collections to Ms. Luisa.

You know,

Ms. bad mood might be looking for me.

By the way,

you know the way to the Villa, right?

I've never been there.

If you want,

I can show you on Monday.

Let's meet up at Mr. Luis' farm.

It's not far from there. I'll go with you.

Hey!

If that's the case,

I can stay with you on Friday.

Let's drink.

That way we can catch up.

That sounds great.

I'll have a chance to make it up to you.

Let me get your number.

Here.

When did you come back to town?

Today.

I came straight to you.

I think I'm spoiling you.

You should be.

When you came back last year

you didn't even tell me you were leaving.

Hey,

don't run your eyes all over me.

You're so annoying!

Did you miss me?

I missed you.

I missed you so much.

You're always giving me a hard time.

So, is this still hard for you?

Just get on with it already.

How could you leave your family so soon?

You've only just arrived and now you're going.

I need to make money while I'm here.

My leave only lasts two months.

Besides, my brother can look after dad.

When do you plan on us going steady?

Stop playing hard to get.

Promise you'll call, okay?

I'm going to miss you.

And I'll miss this too.

Hey.

You shouldn't have made food this good.

Of course, I had to.

We haven't seen you in a while.

It's Mom's recipe.

Eat up!

Hey,

Edgardo,

I'm not a cripple.

I can use my right hand, see?

It's up to you, Dad.

How is it, Dad?

You know,

I think Mom left her cooking skills to you.

Really?

Is it really that good?

But it's still not as good

as your sister's cooking.

Oh dear.

Dad,

I have to leave again.

I applied for a job in the town over.

And they hired me.

It's temporary.

I'm just waiting for the agency to call again.

Robbie,

take care of Dad.

If anything happens, call me.

I will.

I can handle this.

You know where I'll be. Villa Sanchez.

Yes I do. Take care.

Hello, Allen,

are you home?

I'll text you the location to get here.

Alright, I'm on my way.

I won't let what happened to dad just slide.

That's a promise.

Take care of yourself, okay?

Promise you'll call me, okay?

Cheers, brother.

By the way,

sorry if I can't give you the money I owe you yet.

Fifty thousand.

Can I lower that a bit?

For your stay at my place?

You're lucky Allen.

My mom and sister has passed on you still haven't paid me back.

That's why I'm telling you now, brother. This is me paying you back a little.

You'll do fine.

Wait,

don't get angry but...

what really happened to your sister?

What do you know about it?

That you suspect it was Sir Leon.

It happened while I was at sea.

She was raped then hanged.

That's what my father saw.

Didn't you go to court?

Being poor is not easy.

We didn't have the money to sue those bastards.

Good thing you told me about the vacancy at their Villa.

I'm wiping off all your debt just because of that.

Brother, I can't thank you enough.

What are you planning?

Just keep me out of this.

I think Sir Leon's not even there.

Let's change the subject.

Who are you dating these days?

Bro,

when it comes to chicks, there's an endless supply.

I have one in each town.

Want me to give you one?

No. I'm fine.

I'm seeing someone.

She's like a friend

but also

not.

What's her name?

Rosalia.

Are you fucking serious? Rosalia?

You mean the hot and pretty one?

You've hit the jackpot.

Wasn't she really popular when we were in highschool?

You're dating but it's like you're not?

Something like that.

I don't know.

Don't think about it. Just keep using her.

Asshole.

Cheers.

Bro, come with me tomorrow,

we'll go to the farm.

We'll go to the market

and buy sisig ala steak.

So we can drink to better food.

Psst...

Brother!

You seem so manly when you're doing chopping wood.

What do you want now, Erlinda?

Hey. Can't I compliment my handsome brother?

Here.

I know what your flattery means.

Alright, fine. Go ahead.

There's some money

in my pant pockets.

But don't take it all!

There's not much left.

Really?

Yes!

Don't worry,

I'm graduating nursing soon.

I'll be able to help you out.

Just do it rather than talk about it.

My handsome brother is always grumpy.

Love you!

By the way,

when are you due back on board?

Hey,

Rodrigo, you're late again.

My apologies, sir.

The day after today,

Allen will be delivering fertilizer.

Don't waste those.

They're expensive.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Uh, Sir Luis?

If I may.

Me and my colleagues have a request.

We hope that you would increase

our share in the farm's profit.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Well, that...

that depends on the market, and I don't have control over that.

But you don't have to worry.

Sir, we'd also like to ask for the irrigation to be fixed.

Because it's been broken for a while

and the water pump is unusable now.

Will it be okay to have it replaced

with something bigger.

Just so the water smoothly flows in and out of the farm.

Oh, you complain too much.

Just bear with the old one for now.

Don't worry,

we'll have that changed.

Sir Luis,

What?

This is Edgar,

he applied with Ma'am Luisa

as a checker-driver at the Villa.

Good day to you, Sir Luis.

What did Luisa tell you?

She told me to come to the Villa, on Monday.

Allen,

can we trust this man?

He's trustworthy, Sir Luis.

We can depend on him at the warehouse and the Villa.

He is a hardworker.

You can count on me, sir. I promise.

Another mouth to feed. Alright, fine!

- Thank you, sir! - Thank you!

Fucking hell, brother,

don't get me in trouble.

Edgar, why don't you join us?

Go ahead, sir. I'm fine, thank you.

Here, at least have a banana.

You know,

my son Celso has been unreliable.

He went away with his wife.

And that's why,

he works at the factory now.

You know, the price of grain still hasn't gone up.

And we can't plant vegetables

because there isn't enough water.

That's why we only get two harvests a year.

And we're unlucky if we harvest when the storms come in.

All my dreams when I was young have dried up now.

Just like my late father said:

"If you live on a farm,

you'll die on a farm."

What about you, Edgar?

In San Pablo,

are the profits for farmers low too?

Yes.

They're so low, we have to use tractors.

We're only needed when we're planting or when we're harvesting.

That's the difference.

Sir Luis still won't give us a tractor.

Well it's because

gas is expensive.

Not to mention he'll have to pay someone to drive it.

Very greedy.

You mean he's greedy.

- That is true. - He is greedy.

By the way,

Terio came by the house this morning.

He told me that a prisoner escaped

from the county jail.

And that whoever had any information on him

would get a hefty reward.

We could form a group for the search.

That's good money.

- Yeah, that would help us a lot. - Right?

That's right.

Alright, let's eat.

Let's finish this.

If I find that fugitive,

and get my hands on that reward,

I'll buy my kid a new phone.

And I'll buy my wife a new dress.

What about you?

Of course,

I'll get myself a new bed.

A soft one for romance.

You idiot.

Where's your friend, Edgar?

Oh, Edgar?

I left him back at home.

He seemed tired from all the work.

How well do you know Edgar?

He's a childhood friend. He lost his mother.

- Come on, let's go. - Alright.

Allen?

Allen?

Allen?

Who are you?

Who are you?

Where's Allen?

I'm a guest of Allen's.

Allen's not here right now.

Asshole!

I thought you were Allen!

Don't ever mention this to Allen!

I'm leaving.

Hey, brother.

You look like you haven't slept a wink.

That's the thing.

We went through every town.

We couldn't find the fugitive.

How's Villa Sanchez now?

Villa Sanchez?

Tomorrow,

don't even think of making a mistake at work.

Sir Luis is strict,

but Ma'am Luisa's worse

and irritable too.

How many children does Sir Luis have?

Three.

Luisa is the eldest,

Leon is second,

and the youngest is Lyka.

Which one of them is in Villa Sanchez?

Allen!

Hey, Beth!

Edgar,

this is Beth,

my biggest fan.

You idiot,

I'm no fan.

Could you come with me to town?

Dad wanted me to buy something.

Of course.

But I'll have to change, okay?

I'll leave you with Edgar.

By the way, you should start packing.

We're leaving early tomorrow.

The Sanchez family is well known in San Isidro.

They don't look kindly on poor folk, so you shouldn't go there.

Sir Luis the owner

has a son named Leon.

He's been courting your sister, Erlinda.

One day, she came home crying and told me

Please don't! I'm begging you!

I'm begging you! Please!

Please, let me go!

Stop!

Stop!

Stop!

Stop!

Stop!

Have mercy!

She was hanging from the ceiling when I came home.

Two months pregnant based on the autopsy.

There was nothing I could do.

How can the poor like us fight back against the rich

and powerful such as them?

That son of a bitch, Leon.

He's a monster.

I couldn't sue them.

They said we didn't have enough proof but the truth is

we didn't have enough money.

That's that.

That animal is still hiding.

Hey, Rosalia,

I'm about to start work.

Why did you call?

Why do you think I called?

Because I miss you already.

I hope that

you miss me too.

Don't worry,

when I get back I'm bringing you donuts.

Donuts?!

Why donuts?

How about a ring instead?

Donuts because they're sweet.

Don't you love sweet things?

But rings, well

they'll just rust or tarnish.

Stop joking, Edgar.

When will you take us seriously?

You're lucky it's the grain chasing you.

Aren't you afraid?

I might get tired of you.

Take care of yourself, Gar.

Don't worry, when I get back

we'll be restless.

Alright, bye.

So Edgar,

I have to unload some rice in town.

Head that way,

and Ma'am Wena will take care of you.

Alright, thanks.

Take care, brother.

Good morning, ma'am.

Oh, good morning to you, too!

I'm Edgar, the new checker for the warehouse and all-rounder.

Oh yes, Ma'am Luisa already mentioned you were coming.

I'm Wena. I manage the Villa.

And this is Rene. He's our caretaker.

Rene, take care of him, will you?

Alright, ma'am.

Come along. I'll give you a tour of the Villa.

And where you'll be staying.

- Alright, ma'am. - Go ahead.

This way.

You'll be working with good people here.

Are there a lot of you working for Sir Luis?

Yes, there are a lot of us.

Alright, go ahead.

Good day, Sir Luis.

Oh! How was your trip?

It was fine, sir.

About your work here. What I want from you

is that you keep the entire warehouse organized, okay?

The supplies must always be in stock.

And clean.

The last checker we had was lazy about cleaning.

My daughter fired him.

- Alright, sir. - So if you-

Oh! Here she is.

Good morning!

This is my hardworking and meticulous daughter.

Luisa meet-

We've already met, Father.

I hired him.

When you get to my age,

memory will sometimes fails.

She is my right hand when it comes to the Villa.

You'll report to her directly.

Always obey her orders.

Come inside, Dad. You'll get tired.

What about the doors that need painting in the square?

Have you painted them yellow?

- No, father. I made them green. - Green?!

Wait for me!

Ok, I'm almost there!

I'm coming! I'm coming!

Rene, is that you?
