All language subtitles for IKAW PA RIN ANG PIPILIIN KO 2024

Yeah! You can do it! Let's go!

Is my pitch okay, guys?

- Yeah!
- Keep going!

- Bestie!
- Yes?

I'm starting to lose it!

Cheers!

Yeah!

One more?

- Is that enough?
- That's enough!

It's all good! Come here!

Let's have a toast!

Right?

Cheers!

You're off-key!

What?

The note is C.

What you're hitting is note E.

That's a male key.

It's not in your range,
so you can't sing it properly.

And you're drunk.

Wow.

Hey, sorry.

Am I off-key?

No worries, next time,
even if I'm heartbroken,

even if I'm shattered,

I'll make sure that I'm not off-key, okay?

So, it won't be embarrassing
for you, okay?

- That's not an excuse!
- Sorry!

Your voice or ears aren't broken, right?

C!

You know, if I needed
someone to lecture me,

then I wouldn't have broken up
with my boyfriend.

But what about me?

What about what I need?

What I want?

I am nothing to him!

He doesn't care.

He's silent.

Isn't that even more deafening?

I might accept Ferdie's offer.

I'll be gone for a while.

Ferdie,

there are many more talented students,
or professors who can help you.

Why do we need someone from the outside?

We'll even have to pay him.

We already have an arrangement.

My fee won't be deducted
from the university's subsidy.

We've sorted that out.

We will use our own arrangements.

We don't have a market
for classical music here.

Who doesn't know
the works of Canseco, right?

I'll send the music sheets tomorrow,
along with the assignments.

- Yes, it is.
- But is it for real?

Because if this doesn't work,
they said they'll disband us.

- That's not true.
- I hope not.

Sir Andrew said so.

You're a suck-up, huh?

Hey, no way! Just a little curious.

It's Sir Michael.

Sir Michael? It's just Michael.

I'm not your Sir.

You're not my students either.

You're all professionals.

Nine o'clock means nine o'clock.

Not nine and a half.

Learn to commit.

I am committed, though.

I hate tardiness.

It's just that...

I don't like excuses either.

Do you have something else to say?

Well, I do, but it seems
like you don't want to listen.

I'll just go home.

Ms. Rodriguez.

Sometimes, it's also good
to keep quiet to avoid conflicts.

Michael, if I wanted peace and quiet,

I would've chosen to be a nun.

Right?

Let's go.

I thought Dad already fixed this?

I don't know.

- Hi, Dad!
- Dad, it's off-key!

Okay, I'll fix it later.

And this too!

Okay.

This one too!

Ms. Rodriguez.

Where did that note come from?

Are you an arranger?

Where is that in the sheet?

Sorry, it was an automatic response.

When the swell came here,

it just felt so natural, and...

The emotion just needed to come out...

Like you're on the verge of tears
because it hurts.

The audience applauding
in a singing contest.

You know what I mean?

We have an arrangement to follow.

And you're not a soloist.

We have a piece to follow.

Just follow it.

Les, I need to move
for the project with Ferdie.

Michael.

Are we giving up?

Aren't you happy?

And you're not happy
with me anymore, right?

I'm just thinking about
"Ngayon at Kailanman."

It's clean, right? But...

- Really?
- Yeah!

It's clever, new, modern.

Well, it's not that I don't agree,

but I'm just a bit hesitant
about the clever and modern part.

Partner, Canseco is already
a part of people's lives, right?

Almost every kid sang his songs
in singing contests.

And for every occasion,
there's always a Canseco song.

So, what I'm concerned about
is people's expectations, you know.

When they come to the concert,

they already have a Canseco
in mind, you know.

So, do you want to make it more pop,
more commercial?

Well...

No, not pop. No, no, not pop.

I think it should be more emotive.

There's a term they use now, feels.

Something like that.

That's what they call it.

- It's all about the feels.
- I get that.

- Yeah?
- I understand.

Feels, yeah.

You're right.

What made you think of that?

I felt that.

It hurts.

I do listen to my team, you know.

So, if you're ready,

let's rehearse.

What's this?

Did you get kicked out?

Seriously?

I'm moving.

Well, since you have so many opinions...

Look at this.

Where's a good place to move to?
Here or there?

Well...

Here, it's quieter.

I don't want quiet anymore.

Do you have a problem?

Come in. Put it here...

Ms. Rodriguez.

Is this a gift or a peace offering?

Well...

And it's hard if you're new here.

And yeah,

a peace offering to lower
your irritation with me.

Because you're new here,

I made a list of restaurants that deliver...

- You cook?
- You don't?

No.

You do laundry too?

Better than you.

I see.

Okay. So, my gift is useless.

Well, it's fine, you are wife-less.

Bro.

- Thank you.
- Thank you, sir.

So, what song did you sing?

The one by Canseco.

The one you sang in the singing contest.

That.

The one at...

at the Feast of Santo Niño,
in Barangay Quirino.

That's far.

My mom didn't want to miss it.
She was after the prize money.

So, what did you sing?

I'll tell you next time.

When we're better friends.

Here.

Dad, I might stay out late again,

Jen and I have another rehearsal.

The piano is still broken.

It's because the piano needs a new pedal.

I was just thinking.

Maybe we can consider...

Sis, let's eat.

Yes. Maybe we can buy a new keyboard?

Even a secondhand one.

Oh, no.

I don't have the money for that.

What if we sell the piano?

We can use the money.

What? Why would we sell it?

It's a good brand.

It's probably beyond repair.

We're not selling it.

Sorry, I was off-key. I'm still adjusting.

I'll fix it.

Enjoy your date.

Hey! You're still here?

- Hi, Sir Michael!
- Hi! Hello!

Someone needs the room.

Oh, okay.

We'll leave then.

Jas!

- Just a moment, please.
- Can you practice somewhere else?

Someone needs the room.

All right, then.

Okay.

Is there a problem?

Well...

It's just... It's kind of hard to play
the piano at our house.

I was hoping to practice in here.
But it's fine.

I have an old keyboard at home,

- you can borrow that.
- No, it's okay!

It's fine, no one's using it anyway.

I was about to donate it.

I'll just go get it.

I'll go with you. I'll get it.

I really need to practice.

Your problem is...

not really about pitch, Jas.

It's because you're studying
the song like a soloist.

But it seems like my part is right,

isn't it?

Come with me.

Come on.

You need to hear the harmony.

See, when you sing in a choir,

you tend to block out others?

To stay in tune, right?

that's a rookie move.

The really good choir members,

they listen to each other.

That's why when you hear them,
their blending is perfect

- Got it?
- Yes.

Excuse me, just a moment.

I have something that you need to hear.

Can I explain something to you?

Is that okay?

Here you are.

That's the choir.

So, can you hear the harmony?

That's where most of our knowledge
about music comes from.

And so on.

So, it's very important

when you're listening to music,
when you're studying it,

you need to study the whole piece.

Be open to the sounds of others,
and everything.

You should have been a professor.

It's hard for me
to explain this to my spouse.

How can I make other people understand?

Even with my choir members,
I can't make them understand.

Maybe you're the one with the problem?

I'm the problem? Why am I the problem?

Sorry, that was a bad joke.

I see.

I'm sure your ex has bigger problems
with you.

That's heavy.

Not really.

He just didn't understand why...

why I love singing so much.

So, they're the ones with the problem.
We're fine, we're perfect.

Music should connect us to other people.

The feelings.

It's weird
because instead of connecting us,

music is the reason we're both alone now.

You're not alone now.

I got it.

No relationship,

but he wants it to be exclusive.

- What's that?
- Friends with benefits?

Oh, he's not my friend.

He just wants the boyfriend experience.

No, he just doesn't want to commit.

I almost kissed Michael.

Our Michael?

I'm so fragile.

I'm so fragile.

Instead of fooling around.

That's a whole new level of focus!

because they are
still under the university.

It affects everyone,

everyone if this becomes a scandal.

You are causing the scandal!

that you're risking
your professionalism for an affair.

First, I'm already separated.

Second, we are not dating.

Third, there's no affair going on.

So, there's nothing to talk about here.

If this gets out at school,

in the choral communities,

it's sexual harassment.

There's no harassment!

- Shut up!
- I don't want to.

Let's make it clear, okay?

I'm the one who kissed him.

Me. Not the other way around.

Well, he's handsome.

Am I not allowed to have a crush?

And also, Sir,

I know he's my boss,

that's why I'm clarifying
that he didn't pressure me.

I was the one who insisted.

And he rejected me

because we're just colleagues.

And Sir,

thank you for defending
my dignity as a woman.

But if you're going to use this
to shut down our choir...

Jas!

It's true, right?

They want to shut us down.

That's why they're making it a big deal.

Let's just make it simple.

I'll leave.

No issues.

Jas!

I prefer this weather
'cause Mom doesn't like me sweating.

Silly, right?

Your mom doesn't like what?

But it's true.

I told you because you're my best friend,

not for you to betray me!

What you did was wrong.

You're putting the whole choir at risk.

You know they're watching our every move,
and you do this?

You're being selfish.

And, bestie,

our friend got rejected,
and you still reported it.

But that's not the point,

the point is our choir is in jeopardy.

Jas, this is all I have.

My job is for my family and my child.

This is what I do for myself.

If the choir falls apart,

everything we've worked for
would be for nothing.

That's why we want to make the choir
a success, right?

But that's not a reason
to throw Jas under the bus.

All of you are safe.

I'm out of the choir.

- Jas!
- Jas!

If you're going to blame me
for ruining your career,

get in line.

Hey.

How are you?

Let's keep this between us, okay?

Here.

It's yours.

I don't want to wash it.

But are you okay?

They didn't kick you out?

Did you leave to protect me?

No.

I left so they wouldn't have a reason
to shut down the choir.

I'll talk to Ferdie.

- When I leave...
- You're going to leave?

So you can come back
to the choir when I'm gone.

Wow.

You want to be a martyr?

Aren't you doing the same?

Leaving to save your choir, right?

Still...

I won't be going back there,

after how they treated me.

If they don't want me there, I won't go.

Why would I force myself?

I'm going home.

I'm sleepy.

See you.

Dad, no matter what you do,
it won't be fixed.

Just let me, please.

Why are you still here?

Aren't you rehearsing with the choir?

- Yes, I'm leaving now.
- I'll go with you!

I have something to do near there.

Excuse me, sis.

- Are you coming along?
- Yes.

Bye, Dad!

- Michael.
- Hey, Ferdie.

What are you saying, Ferdie?

I'm just resigning as a conductor.

I won't take the arrangements.

I've been paid for that.

Use it, continue with the concert.

So, why do you still need to resign?

Andrew is just bullying you.

I don't want to give him a reason
to come after you.

There. Hey, be wary!

They should be wary of me.

No, you must be wary.

- Don't go too fast!
- Okay.

We were going too fast.

Okay, okay.

- Goodbye, sis!
- Take care!

Don't drive too fast!

Is he your brother?
Did he give you a ride?

I just rode with him.

Did you tell them what happened?

Jas, if you need me to explain
to them what happened...

Why? Nothing happened, right?

Are you coming back?

No, I'm not.

There are plenty of other options.

What about you?

Yeah, maybe I'll take a break for a while.

I have a lot of arrangements
to work on anyway.

You're not going back to Manila?

There's nothing there for me
to go back to.

Where are you going?

I'll drop you off.

Actually, anywhere quiet would do.

I just need to practice my piece properly.

Is that the winning piece
for the Feast of Santo Niño?

Is it?

You know, don't laugh at it.
It brought me luck.

I actually won with that.

Okay, okay.

Here's the chord. Here.

Okay?

All right?

Okay.

There.

That's the chord.

Okay.

Don't you remember?

You don't remember.

I remember something else.

- Get it together.
- Sorry.

- Let's do it.
- Okay.

One more.

- I am ready.
- You're still smiling,

- it's distracting me.
- I'm not smiling!

I'm just really happy.
It's because it's beautiful.

- One more. Okay, serious now.
- Okay, ready.

I...

I feel self-conscious.

No, what you're doing is beautiful.

It's beautiful.

- Okay.
- All right.

Why are you laughing?

No, okay. I am ready.

You know what, just turn around.

Turn around?

Just turn around!

I'll turn around. I am ready!

Well, you're distracting me!

You're still smiling.

Besides, I know you don't like me.

- What?
- Come on, let's do it.

Go.

I didn't say that.

You kept denying it,

but I knew you'd give in eventually.

You don't have rehearsal today, right?

Or do you have a new student to teach?

We just have an additional rehearsal.

I'm leaving.

You look like
you're enjoying your rehearsal.

When is the performance?

I don't know yet.

I'll let you know.

- I'm going now.
- Sure.

Sis, you didn't wash your uniform.

It's not required today!

Why was she in such a hurry?

All right.

Give Les whatever she wants.

That should be fine.

Oh, sorry.

Are you okay?

Leslie is...

your ex?

Ex-wife, as soon as possible,

if she had her way.

Where did we leave off yesterday?

What was that again?

Where were we?

We don't need to rehearse
if you're going through something.

It's okay.

Hey.

Are you hey-ing me?

It's okay to feel hurt.

You were together for a long time, right?

Hey.

Did you just "hey" me?

The love has been gone for a while.

Okay.

At least you're free
to build something new

with someone else, right?

You don't have to wait for years,

hoping for something to happen,

right?

Because sometimes,
marriage can be like a prison.

Where did that come from?

Nowhere.

I just thought

that if it's over,

it's over.

It's better to leave first
before you get left behind.

Hey.

Don't finish that. Save some for me.

- Why are you trembling?
- I'm nervous.

Nervous, huh?

You're really good.

You even got first place, right?

It will be okay.

- All right then.
- Okay.

- Good luck.
- Okay.

Okay.

Thank you!

Hey.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Okay. Do your best.

Bye.

Jen!

I made it!

Oh, Jas.

What's going on now?
I thought we were cool?

No, I texted you because, well, my lips...

I have something to confess.

What is it?

I went to your house to congratulate you.

Congratulations, right?

- And?
- Your dad was there.

Jas, he knows
you're not in the choir anymore.

Excuse me.

Dad!

Well...

I just didn't want you to worry,

that's why I didn't tell you.

I was going to tell you
when I found a new choir.

Here, I passed.

It's just a choir, you'll find a new one.

But what you did...

- He's your conductor!
- Dad!

This is so awkward.

I know, you're all grown up.

You have your own life.

That's true.

This is my love life!

Is he your boyfriend?

Dad, seriously?

Do I meddle in your life
when you're there every night

at your piano waiting for Mom?

Don't compare me to you!

Your mother and I are married!

We have a family!

- We have a life!
- No, Dad! It's just you!

You don't have her anymore!

Where is she?

If you can't show me respect,
then just leave!

Just for tonight.

There's no room at Jen's place,

and I can't get in contact with Ryan.

Thanks.

It's okay!

Don't worry.

I passed the choir, did I mention that?

- So, let's drink. My treat.
- Jas, wait!

Just a moment! Stay right there.

What did you and your father argue about?

Good morning!

I'm Michael.

This is for you.

What are you doing here?

Just in case you were worried
about where Jas is.

She stayed at my house.

She's sleeping in my bed...

I'm on the floor.

Yeah.

Is that a bribe?

I just thought that since Jas isn't here,

no one's here to cook your breakfast.

Have you ever tasted
my daughter's cooking?

Are you returning her to me
or taking her from me?

My daughter will only make your head hurt.

You can't control her, can you?

Can you?

Not really.

Is she still mad?

Well...

Just a little.

Elijah, what's going on?

I have a portable amp...

- Yeah.
- And if you need...

It has dual input with a microphone and...

Hey, sis!

Why are you here?

Well, Jas...

We were just talking. We're done now.

It's good you're here now
because we need to talk.

Hey, bro, I have a CD collection
in my room.

- Let's check it out.
- Sure!

Excuse us, okay?

Excuse me.

Okay.

I'm going to sell the piano.

You should come home.

No, Dad.

You're not coming home?

Don't sell the piano.

It's fine.

I just don't want you to get hurt.

Why would I get hurt?

Well, you're in love, right?

Aren't you?

You think I don't know my own child?

Dear, Michael is a good guy, talented...

I understand why you have a crush on him.

Dad, come on.

He's been through a lot.
He knows a lot about the world.

But you, you're just starting out.

What do you even have to connect about?

I don't know.

As long as...

We're on the same wavelength.

It's weird, but it's like that.

Still keep going on about
that wavelength thing?

Just come home, okay?

I won't meddle, all right?

Okay.

By the way, your boyfriend
is a great cook.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Better than me?

Yes, that's why I'll let him
stay here instead of you.

You can visit.

Let me fix it.

- That was fast, huh?
- Wait a moment.

You take too long. You'll be late.

Well, better than you
picking a fight with me.

I'm not picking a fight with you.

Then what do you call it? Sweet?

Well, look at that.

Wait for me to open your door first.

Why are you so mean?

- I'm not mean.
- Then what?

Cute, affectionate, sweet?

Can I do that?

Yes, but not too much.
I might get used to it.

Now, it's my fault for being sweet.

Why did you stop?

Am I bothering you?

Yes.

It's so obvious when I make a mistake.

I'm not saying anything, am I?

Yes, but you stop what you're doing.

And your forehead looks like this.

Why are you looking?

Because I know you're judging me.

And your face isn't very friendly.

You know what?

In our relationship,
you don't like me being sweet.

But at work, you want me to be sweet.

Relationship?

What do you call this then?

I don't know.

You're rehearsing in front of me now?

I thought you didn't want that.

It's okay if it's in front
of my boyfriend.

Hey, thanks.

So...

How's Jas doing?

She's okay.

People like Andrew won't bring her down.

Are you two together now?

You're pregnant?

What happened?

What?

I thought I could handle this alone.

So, you weren't planning
on telling me anything?

How could I tell you?

I have a life now.

With someone else!

I've always wanted a baby girl, right?

I have some good news.

Save the date, okay?

Is there a problem?

Can we talk inside?

That's making me nervous.

Let's stay here then.

Okay.

Jas, Leslie called.

This happened before we separated,

before I met you.

Well...

She's pregnant.

Are you going back to her?

We both have lives now.

You know I love you, so much.

I won't leave you hanging.

We're just going to...

It's getting late, I need to head home.

I'll drive you.

No, it's okay. I have a few stops to make.

I know this is hard for you.

It's hard for you too, so we're even.

Shall we?

Hey, Dad!

Can I have some water?

We have a choir performance,
do you want to come watch?

You're losing weight, huh?

I'm just busy, Dad.

Are you really okay?

Yes.

I'll just take this to my room.

Hi!

Sorry, I took a while.

It's okay.

Okay.

Do you want to eat out,

so we don't have to cook at home?

That's not necessary.

Jas, I need to go to Manila first.

Leslie might need a C-section.

Okay.

Go ahead then.

I'll go home.

Go, they need you there.

- It's fine.
- I have time.

Okay.

Let's eat. I'll make breakfast.
What do you want?

Actually, I've already eaten.

And I need to go to work.

Okay then, maybe we can talk later.

Yeah. About that...

I might not be able to come home tonight.

I have something to take care of
at the hospital.

Do you want me to come with you?

You don't want me to?

No, it's not like that.

Well...

She doesn't want to.

Leslie's family is coming over later.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

Do you want to see a picture of the baby?

She looks like you.

That's what they say.

A bit of Leslie too.

Yeah.

Go take a shower.

Okay.

Okay.

See, we're all here to support you.

So, you'd better come
and support our concert too.

You have an ulterior motive, huh?

Of course, we should support each other.

Right.

Shall we bring Uncle with us?

Okay.

How about you, Jas,
will you go with Michael?

He might be late.

Michael - I'm outside.
I'm sorry.

Sorry.

Sorry.

Sorry.

How was your concert?

It was okay.

The group isn't really jelling yet.

But Jen said I did okay.

There's a lot of improvement.

Good thing they came, right?

Yes, even Dad, Elijah

and, oh, yeah, the choir...

The choir was a bit off because...

the sound was supposed to be different.

But they couldn't pull off
the alto harmony.

We wanted to give some suggestions,

but the conductor isn't
really open to ideas.

Maybe we can...

Great!

That's just great!

I left my hard drive at Leslie's place.

Great!

You can go back and get it.

I promised
I'd take you out tonight, right?

- Really?
- Yeah.

You're taking me out?

Yes.

Because I missed your concert, right?

It's okay, it's over now.

I still want to hear you sing.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Okay.

Hello?

- Jas, good morning.
- Where are you?

Sorry, it was sudden,

but we had to take the baby to the ER.

But the baby is okay now.

Leslie was worried, so I went with her.

But we'll have dinner later, okay?

Why does she always cry when she sees me?

Maybe she doesn't like your voice?

Why wouldn't she like my voice?

She's cute, isn't she?

Jas.

Cora.

Easy, okay.

I'll leave you two alone.

- Let me put this here.
- Yeah, thank you!

So...

Maybe I shouldn't have come here yet.

- Let's go?
- No, it's okay.

You stay here for now.

Jas!

Jas!

Jas!

Let's do this instead.

Tomorrow you can just have
our pediatrician check it, okay?

I can't right now.

Tomorrow, after work,
I'll head over there.

Les, you should rest.

You haven't been sleeping.

Okay?

Okay.

If you need to go back
to Manila, it's okay.

You're also important to me, Jas.

But you're struggling.

For now, yes.

But I thought of a solution.

Don't you want to join your dream choir?

You can do it now.

It will be easier
if you audition in Manila.

And when we're in Manila,

it will be easier for us
to find jobs there.

Manila?

We're leaving?

Yeah.

That's what you want, right?

It'll be better for you

- if you audition there.
- Is it better for me

or better for you and Leslie?

I'm just thinking of a solution.

Okay,

so you're going to rearrange my life?

I'm not like the songs you arrange.

This is me, right?

I'm always off-key.

I'm not okay, after all.

Jas, it's just a suggestion.

You can say no.

Then, no!

Okay!

I'm really not okay!

I'm so jealous!

- Nothing's happening!
- I don't know!

Well, how would I know?

Am I funny?

No, okay.

There's really nothing to be jealous of.

So, what?

I'm just being paranoid,
possessive, immature, selfish!

You're the one saying that.

- You're saying so much already.
- Can you take me seriously?

Jas,

I don't want to argue with you.

I want us to talk about this.

We are talking about it,

aren't we?

We're not talking, we're fighting.

Why wouldn't we
when all you talk about is her?

- What is it about?
- It's about what your mom did to you.

My mom has nothing to do with this.

But you're still carrying around
the fear of being abandoned.

Why? Isn't it true?

I'm here!

See?

Yes,

but you're torn.

That I messed up yours and Jas' lives.

This isn't your fault.

We didn't expect this, right?

Jas!

How long are you not going to talk to me?

Didn't you say sometimes
we need to be quiet to avoid fights?

But you don't like that, right?

If I wasn't here,

would you go back to her?

Why would I go back
to a relationship that's over?

For your baby.

To have a complete family.

Jas, yes,

I want to be with the child
as she grows up,

but that doesn't mean I don't love you.

But without me...

What's really the problem?

I don't want to get hurt.

No matter what you say or do,

when you're with Leslie,
that's what I feel.

What do you want to happen?

I don't want to cry.

I don't want to cry.

But isn't that part of a relationship?

Maybe I'm not cut out for a relationship.

Jas.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Jas!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Do you want

to tell me what happened between you two?

When you two broke up,
it's like you turned into a robot

when you came back to me.

Aren't you tired of waiting for Mom?

I'm not waiting for her.

I'm just hoping.

It's free, right?

It's tough to keep hoping.

That's why you broke up with him?

Because you got tired of hoping?

It's your decision.

If you don't want to, don't.

But...

why did you give up
your whole life for it?

Right?

Your heart might have been broken,

but you're still you.

If you're going to forget him,

it's okay.

Forget him.

But don't forget yourself,

and who you are.

Okay?

Whenever I hear Canseco,

I hear Michael.

I can't breathe.

I can't sing.

Jas,

you won't be happy every time you sing.

Not all songs are happy.

You're going through.

So, you don't have to forget.

When we love someone,

it's already here, right?

So, are you ready?

You came back?
