[CLINKS]
[CRICKETS CHIRPING]
Liana?
Liana. Juliana, wake up, wake up.
- Wake up. - What's wrong?
Your sister hasn't come home yet.
She still isn't here.
Maybe she's working overtime at the coffee shop.
She texted earlier saying she was on her way home.
But she's not here yet, so I'm getting worried
that something might have happened.
[LINE RINGING]
Victor, have you contacted her?
[LINE DROPS]
She's still not picking up.
Alright, let's look for her.
Just stay there. I'll handle it.
[LINE RINGING]
[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]
Kate, will you please sit down?
[SIGHS] What's wrong?
You have a nice place. [CHUCKLES]
Kate, I know something's bothering you.
[DYLAN SIGHS]
Nothing's bothering me.
Please don't lie to yourself.
I don't know.
It seems like I'm always surrounded by liars.
[CLICKS TONGUE, SIGHS]
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
My sister...
I've defended her countless times.
I've always sided with her.
Turns out, she's the one who's really in the wrong,
not Victor.
She's even worse than our mother.
Imagine, having an affair with her husband's own brother.
- [SNIFFLES] - [SIGHS]
I'm her sister.
Don't I deserve to know the truth?
I used to think that even if our mother left us,
we will be okay.
I'll still be fine because my sister has her own family.
I believed that something good could still happen to us.
But why did she do that?
What will happen to my niece?
[BIRDS CHIRPING]
Well, you're finally home.
We had been worried about you since last night.
Next time, Kate, be more responsible.
Let us know if you're not coming home
so we won't have to worry about you.
And stop getting involved with just any guy.
Look who's talking.
What do you mean?
Wait, I'm still talking to you.
Where are you going?
Let go of me.
Hey, don't be rude. I'm still your sister.
Do you have a problem with me?
Mommy, are you two fighting?
[BROODING MUSIC PLAYING]
[DOOR SLAMS]
Hi.
All your test results are normal.
Your hormones, your sperm count, everything.
I don't see any problem.
You can have as many children as you want.
[DOCTOR CHUCKLES]
I'll leave you two for a moment.
- Thanks, doc. - [DOCTOR] Okay.
See? I'm healthy as a horse, Sylvia.
[MOROSE MUSIC PLAYING]
What's with your reaction? You look disappointed.
I'm not disappointed.
Well, you don't look happy.
If there's nothing wrong with you,
then it's confirmed that the problem lies with me.
Do you still want me to celebrate?
I'm sorry.
[MOROSE MUSIC CONTINUES]
Ma'am, I just want to know
if the results of our DNA test are ready.
Lualhati.
Someone claimed it already, sir.
- What? Who? - [UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]
Go and open it so we can have Matteo tamper it.
Lifeline DNA Diagnostics DNA TEST REPORT
What's wrong?
Based on the testing results obtained from the analyses
the probability of paternity is 99.999%
The result is positive, Alex.
What?
Victor is the father of the child I'm carrying.
[PAPER RUSTLING]
[UNSETTLING MUSIC CONTINUES]
Something still happened between you two?
He just returned to the Philippines that time.
I had to pretend we were okay
because I didn't want him to suspect anything.
[SNIFFLES]
Maybe...
we should avoid each other for a while.
Why do you always resort to that?
Are you just pretending with me, too?
Because Abby is starting to get affected.
I don't want this child to get affected, too.
Is it too much to ask for a little peace of mind
while I'm pregnant?
I can protect you!
Really?
But you wanted me to get rid of the child, right?
You wanted it, too.
Don't blame me for the decisions we both made.
I only agreed to what you wanted!
I had always followed your lead,
but for this, I'll make a decision for myself.
After all, I'm the only one
who will have to deal with this child, right?
[MOROSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Juliana!
[CRICKETS CHIRPING]
[DOOR OPENS]
[DOOR CLOSES]
[KEYS CLATTER]
Why did you go to the DNA clinic ahead of me?
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]
[PAPER RUSTLING]
You're the real father, Victor.
Maybe now you'll believe me.
Why? What did you think I would do?
If you want, you can verify the results with the clinic.
[SIGHS] What do we do now?
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC CONTINUES]
[DOOR SLAMS]
[YELLS]
Alex, what happened?
Alex.
[DARK MUSIC PLAYING]
Alex...
Wha...
What...
Alex...
[MUSIC INTENSIFIES]
[ALEX GRUNTS]
Alex, it doesn't have to be this way.
Talk to me.
Alex...
[DARK MUSIC CONTINUES]
[BROODING MUSIC PLAYING]
[PHONE BUZZING]
[SUSPENSEFUL STING]
[BUZZING CONTINUES]
What do you want?
[JIMBOY] Look, it's Eminem.
Victor's next opponent...
...is Martin Manansala. The fight will be next week.
Victor just had a fight recently.
You wouldn't want to miss this opportunity.
He's the undefeated champion of Mindanao Boxing Federation.
His original contender backed out of the event,
so I got Victor in.
This will be a good promotion for him if he wins.
But Victor's body hasn't fully recovered yet.
Well, that's why you're here.
To get his body conditioned, right?
Right, left, knock out.
And bro, this guy is better than Jethro.
He's an out-boxer.
He punches incredibly fast.
We'll think about it first.
I've already secured a new sponsor for Victor.
They have high expectations of you.
A sponsor?
Is there a need for that?
Victor...
The fight is not just in the ring anymore.
We're expanding your reach.
They are willing to take the risk
because I told them you're great.
You need this fight, Victor.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]
When is the fight?
Victor...
Welcome to the company of great boxers.
The return of "The Beast."
And the return of "The Pest."
Psst.
Victor, let me introduce you to Jethro.
Oh, my bad. [CHUCKLES]
You two already know each other, right?
He's also joining the company.
I hope there won't be any issues.
Just think of it like...
we're one big family.
No problem for me.
Perfect. That's what I like to hear.
I heard that Manansala will be your next opponent.
He's known for his "Shotgun."
A barrage of fast punches.
Difficult to dodge, but not impossible.
Olivia, right?
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Okay.
I guess I won't bother you guys anymore.
[DOOR OPENS]
- Oh. - [DOOR CLOSES]
Going somewhere?
I'm just going to meet William.
We have something to discuss.
After that, I'll pick up Abby.
Why, Grandma?
N-Nothing.
Uh...
I was just thinking about Victor...
now that he's going to be a father again.
[PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]
What do you mean?
I hope he'll support you during your pregnancy.
Your marriage is going through a rough patch.
But he's ready to take responsibility for the child
even though...
Even though what?
Are you still having doubts
if Victor really is the father of this child?
He is, right?
We had a DNA test done.
It's confirmed that Victor is the father.
That's good to hear.
Maybe it's a sign from God...
for you to fix your marriage
and to correct your mistakes.
[PENSIVE MUSIC CONTINUES]
I have some good news.
What is it, Ma?
Juliana and Victor are having another child.
[MELANCHOLIC MUSIC PLAYING]
Oh...
Good for them.
Maybe that will be the key to fixing their marriage.
Oh, Ma...
Why don't you look happy about it?
No, I'm happy.
I bumped into Miss Pilar earlier.
She told me I should be happy.
Hopefully, they will find peace now
since they're going to have another child.
[MELANCHOLIC MUSIC CONTINUES]
So far, the pregnancy is going well.
There are no risks with the baby and you, Mommy.
So, just make sure to follow all my instructions.
And of course, continue taking the prescribed multivitamins
and folic acid once a day.
Okay, so if you experience any warning signs,
like bleeding in the vaginal area,
watery discharge, or abdominal pain,
please go to the emergency room immediately.
Otherwise, I'll see you for your next checkup in one month.
- Okay? - Okay.
- Are we done, doc? - Yes.
Okay.
- [MACHINE BEEPS] - [GROANS]
[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]
Doc, may I know the exact due date of Liana's delivery?
Based on our ultrasound today,
your wife's due date is on July 1.
That means the baby is currently at nine weeks of gestation.
If uncertain about the last menstrual period,
we follow this calculation.
There are also other things to be considered,
like the fact that sperm can survive in the female body
for up to three days.
So, there's no way to determine the exact date of conception.
The duration of your wife's ovulation is also a factor.
- Thank you, doc. - Sure.
[PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]
This is it, bro.
Don't lose your focus.
Prove to everyone that you're "The Beast."
Always remember the reason why you're fighting.
For your family and for yourself.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]
[CHUCKLES] So, are you and Dylan officially dating?
Not yet.
I thought you guys are together now.
He's really going all out for you.
Behaving like a boyfriend and all.
Just let him be.
Think about the money you could get.
You could do online shopping with it.
Don't make it harder than it needs to be.
Why don't you just say yes?
That way, you could win the bet.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Dylan, wait. Dylan!
Dylan, I said wait! Dylan...
Why are you angry?
You don't want to answer?
How dare you get angry! Huh?
You don't have the right to get angry!
You also bet on me, didn't you?
Kate...
I don't want to argue.
Because you're also at fault!
You bet on me first.
You know what I hate the most, right?
Those who deceive other people.
Liars!
So, you thought it was fine when you did it?
You're no different from my sister.
You only care about yourselves.
You're so selfish!
I hope that from now on, you will leave me alone.
I beat you in the game you started.
Yes, Kate.
It all started with a bet.
But everything I've shown you...
...is true.
[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]
Liana.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Why aren't you answering my calls?
I'm already looking for a solution.
Alex...
I thought I've made myself clear, Alex.
So, you're really ending it?
You'll just forget all our memories together?
Well... Do I have a choice?
Does this relationship even have a future, Alex?
Is there anything you're willing to sacrifice for me?
Will you sacrifice your career
or your life with Sylvia?
What can you give up for me?
[SCOFFS] See?
Nothing, right?
Because in this relationship...
...you only care about what you want and what you can get.
So, you're choosing Victor over me?
[TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES]
Alex, I'm begging you. Please just go.
Leave before someone sees you.
[TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES]
- Sir! - Sir, just one question!
You were amazing, bro. You totally crushed him.
- Congrats! - Thanks.
Oh, wait. Let me check your wounds real quick.
What do you think, Coach? Were my moves okay?
You're just lucky you're stronger than your opponent.
Coach, that's not just luck. Let's just be happy he won.
- Mm... - [DOOR OPENS]
[CLAPPING] Congratulations, Victor.
Thanks.
You got that from me, didn't you?
[RICKY LAUGHS]
Anyway, the sponsor watched your fight.
They are very impressed.
They want to meet you before closing the deal.
- [MOROSE MUSIC PLAYING] - [SNIFFS]
Oh, and Ricky wants to throw you a victory party.
Yeah, let's go to my bar. It's not far from here.
- Everyone's invited. - I'll take a rain check.
I'm tired. I want to go home.
- How about you, Olivia? - [MOROSE MUSIC CONTINUES]
I'll pass. I'm taking Grandpa home.
I can have my driver take him. Come on.
No, it's fine. Thanks.
It's okay. Victor and I can go.
Right, buddy?
I need to rest.
We have a party tomorrow.
- [RICKY] Come on, Victor. - [PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]
This doesn't happen often. Don't let me down.
Come on. We won't stay out late.
Did I mention we'd be meeting the big boss from the company?
Victor, just go and meet them.
Just a quick chat.
It's a done deal, I assure you. Come on.
[PENSIVE MUSIC CONTINUES]
[DOOR OPENS]
Oh, Kate. Good, you're home.
Have you eaten?
Hey, Kate.
I'm talking to you. What's the matter with you?
Will you stop it?
You don't even care about me.
All you ever think about is yourself.
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
What's your problem?
I know what you did to Victor.
[SOMBER MUSIC CONTINUES]
- Uh, Kate. Kate. - [SLAPS JULIANA'S HAND]
I don't think we should talk.
I might say things you don't wanna hear.
Just leave me alone.
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
[SOMBER MUSIC CONTINUES THEN FADES]
He can't talk to anyone no matter what, alright?
- [DANCE MUSIC PLAYING] - You understand?
I'll do what you want, but you need to shut him up.
[DANCE MUSIC CONTINUES]
It's fine, Dad. Don't worry about it.
Ladies, ladies. Thank you for coming.
Looks like you're not the only winner tonight.
I can finally find a replacement for Ema.
Uh, ladies, don't be shy.
Introduce yourselves to Victor. He won't bite.
For you... I'm Cherry.
Uh, thank you, thank you. I'll have that.
He's not drinking. He's going home early. [CHUCKLES]
[DANCE MUSIC PLAYING]
You know, this is really one special night.
Um, not only because Victor won,
but also because we closed the deal
with Raging Bull Whiskey.
So, to Victor.
To Victor!
Guys, order whatever you want. The sky's the limit.
[DANCE MUSIC CONTINUES]
Come on, Victor.
Have a little drink. It won't hurt. Come on.
I think it's better if I just go home.
Hold on. Bro...
Our guests just got here.
Don't be rude.
Aren't you having fun?
Just imagine, Victor.
This could've been your life...
...if you didn't quit boxing.
Women...
Liquor...
Money...
Don't you have any regrets?
We have different goals.
Really?
I had a family when I started boxing.
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
And that's also the reason I stopped.
[SOMBER MUSIC CONTINUES]
But...
I heard you're getting an annulment. Is that true?
[RICKY] And you guys are having another baby.
[INHALES]
Sounds messy, bro.
- [OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING] - [RICKY SLAPS HIS THIGH]
And that's exactly why...
...I don't wanna get married.
Doesn't seem worth it. [CHUCKLES]
[RICKY SLAPS HIS THIGH THEN SIGHS]
Cheers. Drink up, boys.
[OMINOUS MUSIC CONTINUES]
[JIMBOY] Cheers. Cheers. [LAUGHS]
[RICKY] We'll talk later, alright?
[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
- Oh, yes! - [DANCE MUSIC PLAYING]
- Jimboy. - I like it, I like it.
- Jimboy. - Oh, that's good.
Jimboy, that's enough. Let's go.
[JIMBOY] Ooh. Oh, come on, come on.
[JIMBOY] Yes. Oh, give it to me, give it to me.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]
Wanna give it a try?
- I'm good. - Come on.
- Just one. - I said I'm good.

So, what do you think?
It's really nice.
Thank you, William.
I didn't have this when I was pregnant with Abby and Marco.
So, thank you.
Don't mention it, friend.
And it's never too late for you to have a baby shower.
- [JULIANA CHUCKLES] - But where's Victor?
This is supposed to be a surprise. He should be here.
[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]
- Uh... Oh. - [PHONE CHIMES]
- Oh, maybe that's him. - Excuse me.
[WILLIAM] We need more balloons.
- [DOOR OPENS] - [WILLIAM] Can you get more?
- [WILLIAM] Victor! Friend! - [DOOR CLOSES]
I'm sorry I'm late.
Uh, alright. Let's get started.
[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
[MUSIC SWELLS THEN FADES]
Let me do that.
I've got this.
I'm really sorry. Sir Emilio invited me
to a party last night. I don't know what happened.
- Oh, I know what happened. - [OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
- This feels too familiar. - [OMINOUS MUSIC CONTINUES]
Is this really your thing, Victor?
Sleeping around whenever I'm pregnant?
What?
- [JULIANA] Here. - [TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
You really haven't changed one bit.
A little taste of victory and you easily get swayed.
Juliana, I can explain.
How can you explain when you were completely drunk?
I really don't know what happened. I didn't even drink.
You can ask Jimboy.
I just woke up and found myself in a hotel.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Don't you think that seems too convenient?
Juliana...
I have things to do.
[TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES THEN STOPS]
They spiked your drink, man.
[SLAPS THIGH] That's right. Those women played you.
But why would they do that?
[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
Only one person could've done this: Ricky.
He's the one who invited those women.
Probably. He's just pretending to be nice to you.
I knew that bastard still holds a grudge against you.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC CONTINUES]
Maybe he's the one who sent Liana those photos.
But... Why would he do that, too?
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]
[MUSIC CONTINUES THEN FADES]
By the way, Alex...
the pictures were already sent to Liana.
- [TENSE MUSIC PLAYING] - [GRUNTING]
That's a knockout, Victor.
- [JULIANA GROANING] - [SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
Liana!
- Are you okay? - Sylvia.
Help! Help!
- Ouch, Sylvia. - Liana. Oh, my God.
- You're in so much pain. - [GROANING]
Let me help you. Come with me.
Help! Help!
Victor.
I got your contract.
Thanks.
Victor...
My man!
- What's up? - [OLIVIA] Give that to me.
He insisted on driving me home.
- So annoying! - I'm just persistent.
Why did you suddenly disappear from the party last night?
I hooked up with this chick.
She was so clingy.
She drained all my energy.
That's why I couldn't make it back.
But you have the energy to pursue Liv today?
Whoa, Victor!
I just dropped her off.
You're too quick to jump to conclusions.
But...
it's a good idea.
Liv is so gorgeous.
Liv is my friend, and I know how messed up you are.
I know what you did to me last night.
Huh? What did I do to you?
It was you who sent those pictures to Liana
to ruin me, right?
What pictures?
I was with some girls.
Girls that you brought to the party.
Victor...
Why would I do that, hmm?
What would I gain from it?
[CHUCKLES] Besides...
what's there to ruin about you?
You're a nobody.
[OLIVIA] Victor! Victor!
Victor, don't blame others the next time you mess up.
Okay?
What?
Are you also going to accuse me of taking those pictures?
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Pathetic.
I was trying to be nice to you.
You wanted to have a taste of my lifestyle, right?
Seems like you can't handle it.
In case you forgot...
I only let you win before.
You owe me everything you have.
What are you talking about?
- I beat you fair and square. - [SCOFFS]
Is that what your father told you?
Huh?
You better be careful...
...because there are fights I don't easily give up.
So, you're pregnant?
You should take care of yourself, Juliana.
Having a child is a blessing.
You're lucky.
Be very careful.
Not everyone is fortunate like you.
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
Why do you think you felt dizzy?
Because of stress?
That's how it is when you're pregnant.
Why don't you consider moving?
Go back to your old house...
...where there's no stress.
I'm used to stress, Sylvia.
This is my third child.
My third pregnancy.
I hope that someday, you also get to experience...
being pregnant.
[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]
By the way, I still have some leftover food.
It's from my baby shower earlier.
Sorry.
I'm not like others.
I don't eat leftovers.
Stay away from Ricky.
He's a complete jerk.
Why so mad?
I can take care of myself.
I'm just looking out for you.
[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]
Just like how you look out for me.
That's the contract.
Take a look at it now.
[VICTOR SIGHS]
Hold on. It's not in my name.
Huh?
[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]
Oh!
Maybe it got mixed up in Ricky's car.
Oh, no.
Wait.
Paguia, Pangilinan, and Lualhati?
[UNSETTLING MUSIC CONTINUES]
Alex is Ricky's lawyer?
But...
why would Ricky agree to be an accomplice
in Alex's scheme to ruin you?
[PHONE RINGS]
[MOROSE MUSIC PLAYING]
[PHONE RINGS]
[BUSY TONE]
Yes, I'm sure he's on his way.
He'll be at the door any minute.
His team is already late.
[EMILIO] He's almost here. Let's just wait a bit more.
I'm sure he's excited about this.
This is a big event.
- [GUESTS CLAPPING] - [EMILIO] I think that's him.
He's finally here.
- The man himself. - [GUEST] Yes.
- [GUESTS CHEERING] - [CAMERA SHUTTERS CLICKING]
[GUEST] Victor!
Congratulations again, Victor.
Congratulations to Team Beast as well.
This is just the beginning.
Mr. Chua is the CEO of Raging Bull Whiskey.
The Beast himself.
Nice to meet you, Victor.
[EMILIO] Victor, here are our board members...
Mr. No, Mr. Sy, and Mr. Ed.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Hi.
[EMILIO] Meet The Beast himself.
- [GUEST] Oh, yes. - [EMILIO CHUCKLES]
All right, Grandma,
I'm just waiting for Abby to come out.
Okay, bye.
[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
- Alex? - Juliana.
What are you doing here?
- [MOROSE MUSIC PLAYING] - I wanted to see you.
Alex, enough.
Juliana...
I'm going crazy.
Especially when I can't see you.
Did you have something to do with Victor's pictures?
Is that the result of your madness?
What?
So, it's true?
I only did it to ensure you won't get back with him.
And what's new?
We've already done this before, right?
Alex, we did that before to protect each other.
But you're acting alone now.
And I'm the one getting into trouble.
Juliana, I only did it because I love you.
Just to free you from Victor.
Nothing's going to change
even after you give birth, right?
Juliana...
Answer me, please.
[MOROSE MUSIC CONTINUES]
I'll do everything to keep you, Juliana.
You should leave now.
I have somewhere to go.
Juliana...
Alex, please.
Get out!
[MOROSE MUSIC CONTINUES]
- [GUESTS CHEERING] - [ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
[ANNOUNCER] Good day, everyone,
and welcome to Victor "The Beast" Lualhati's
Raging Bull Whiskey contract signing.
- [GUESTS CHEERING] - [CAMERA SHUTTERS CLICKING]
[ROCK MUSIC STOPS]
I won't sign.
- [CROWD CLAMORING] - [CAMERA SHUTTERS CLICKING]
I don't trust all of you.
Starting today, I am breaking ties
with Emilio's company.
- [CROWD CLAMORING] - [CAMERA SHUTTERS CLICKING]
Walter Joson. Have you heard of him?
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Oh, long time, no see!
- How are you, Victor? - I'm doing fine.
Come on, let's drink.
No, thanks. I'm just here to ask you something.
What is it?
What is your connection to Emilio Mendoza?
Victor, my family is here.
My wife is sick.
Relax. We're just talking.
And we've known each other for a long time, right?
Victor, I don't want any trouble.
Is that why you agreed to what they want?
How much were you paid?
You're right. He used to be a coach under Emilio.
He knows everything about the company.
And it turns out, this father-son duo
is the one behind the smuggling and selling
of designer steroids in the country.
- [VICTOR] He tried to complain, - I'm innocent.
- but they threatened him. - I'm innocent.
I am a boxer, and I fight fair.
I don't condone such activities.
They silenced Walter Joson.
And Attorney Alexander Lualhati
- made sure of that. - Cut the mic! Cut the mic!
They made him sign a statement
retracting his complaints against them.
Isn't that true?
It's not true. It's not true.
[CROWD CLAMORING]
I'm okay. Let go of me. Let go of me!
How dare you!
I can beat your sorry ass anytime!
I'll make you eat your words!
You think I'm scared of you?
Go ahead, fight me if you want.
[CROWD CLAMORING]
[WOMAN 1] This will be a big fight!
[WOMAN 2] The question is, where's Walter?
[WOMAN 1] This fight will be huge.
[TENSE MUSIC SWELLS]
[VICTOR ON VIDEO] And Attorney Alexander Lualhati...
How are you going to explain this, Alex?
[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]
And Attorney Alexander Lualhati...
I'm Ricky Torres' lawyer, and all that's true,
but we didn't break any law.
I didn't threaten or silence anyone.
The person who spoke against them
was a disgruntled coach who wanted a big payday.
He was threatening to file a complaint,
but he retracted his statement when he got what he wanted.
Everything I did is above board.
But why is your brother acting like this?
Because he has a personal grudge against me.
That's why he's making up stories.
No intimidation happened.
Are you going to believe him over me?
But still, this is a PR nightmare for us.
Fix this!
[LINE RINGING]
Hello?
I've prepared what you asked for.
Let's meet outside where no one can see us.
[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
- He's something else. - [CLICKS TONGUE]
What's that?
- Uh... - Um...
It's a video of Sir Victor.
What? Let me see.
Come on.
[VICTOR ON VIDEO] And Attorney Alexander Lualhati
- made it happen. - [RICKY] Stop him!
[RICKY ON VIDEO]Cut his mic now!
Cut the mic!
This is what you asked for.
That should be enough for you to start over.
I fulfilled my end of our agreement.
This is the last time I'll indulge you.
You've got nothing to worry about, ma'am.
I can keep my mouth shut for the right price.

Victor, what did you do this time?
Did you really have to cause a huge scandal?
What were you thinking? He's a powerful man!
Are you talking about Alex?
Those bastards ganged up against me.
Too bad for them, I stick to my guns
especially when I know I'm right.
[HUFFS]
Do you think you'll still have a boxing career after this?
[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]
I've faced a lot of setbacks in my life.
I can rise above this.
- Alex! Alex! - You bastard!
- Hey, stop it! - [TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Victor.
- [PILAR] That's enough. - [KATE] Victor.
If you want to bring me down, do better!
- [JULIANA] Enough, Alex! - [ALEX GRUNTS]
If you want to commit a crime, make sure you don't screw up.
Your accomplice couldn't even help you.
- What do you want me to do? - [JULIANA] Enough!
Give you a list of all my clients?
- Enough, Alex. - Just be thankful.
Emilio still took you in even though you're a has-been.
Hey! Victor!
If you take a swing at me, I will fight back.
Be thankful that's all I did since you're still my brother.
"Brother"?!
You're not really one of us.
You owe your life to us.
You should be paying for what your mother did to our family.
Stop it. That's enough. Don't fight here.
The neighbors will hear you.
You're worried about what they'll think?
You should be ashamed of your son!
Amelia, just take Alex home.
[TENSE MUSIC INTENSIFIES]
Get out of here.
[SYLVIA] What's going on here?
The entire village can hear you.
Sylvia, help me here. Let's take Alex home.
Let's go inside.
[BROODING MUSIC PLAYING]
MICHAEL ROMERO
Just relax, ma'am. Please stay still.
[SUSPENSEFUL STING]
Sylvia.
Oh, Victor.
Am I really the father
of the child Juliana is carrying?
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Why are you asking me?
I wasn't there when you impregnated her.
The man who did the DNA test...
I saw you with him last night.
Small world.
He's the DNA expert I got for a case I'm handling.
That's why we met up.
Here inside the village?
At night?
Are you implying something?
You know why I'm asking this, Sylvia.
You're a smart woman.
And I know you're also a victim of this situation.
But if I find out that you had a hand in all this...
you will suffer the same fate as your husband.
[TENSE MUSIC RISES]
Nurse, can I see Mr. Navarro's records?
Doc, he's looking for Michael, our medical technician.
[DOCTOR SIGHS]
Sir.
Sir, excuse me, come with me, please.
Is there a problem with your DNA test result, sir?
That's why I'm here. I want to speak to him.
He's not here anymore.
He's no longer connected with our clinic.
[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
What happened?
I cannot go into detail,
but he violated our code of conduct.
We found out that he had done some anomalies
here in our clinic, and he has gone into hiding.
I've talked to the bank.
They said there's no aberration.
Then where did my money go?
Sylvia made the withdrawal.
What did she need it for?
Keep an eye on Sylvia.
Find out what she's been doing.
Sir! Sir! Sir!
I'm sorry, sir, but he insists on talking to you.
He said he has something to consult.
You may leave, Fatima.
And who are you?
You're Sylvia's husband, aren't you?
She gave me a job that I think you should know about.
What?
I'll tell you...
in exchange for a huge amount.

MICHAEL ROMERO THREE MILLION PESOS ONLY
- This is big. - [SNICKERS]
Thanks for your help.
Michael Romero.
Remember me?
My wife and I took a DNA test in the clinic you worked for.
H... How did you find me?
I talked to your mother.
Poor woman. She can't walk comfortably anymore.
Whoa, don't be scared. I just want to ask something.
- I don't know anything... - Let me finish.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
You and Sylvia know each other, right?
And you did something to our DNA test result.
Alex, you called for me?
[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
Alex...
You know the child Juliana's carrying is mine,
but you hid that fact from me.
You impregnated another woman.
And you expect me to do nothing?
No, Alex.
You promised me that you'd end things with Juliana.
[SOBS] You told me you love me.
[SYLVIA GASPS]
How can I love you when you can't give me a child?
Alex...
You told me that it's okay.
That what matters is the two of us.
- So, what are you saying now? - Well, I lied!
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
Do you know how hard it is to be looked down on every day?
No matter how hard I work, they still find fault in me.
"A brilliant lawyer, but he doesn't have a child."
"He's wealthy. Too bad he's childless."
"He's a successful man, but he's impotent."
But the one who's actually impotent is you!
Yet that's what they think of me.
You know how much I've tried, Alex.
But did you care about how I feel?
How devastated I am every time I come home from the doctor?
Every time I see a child?
Every time I think that you're with another woman?!
I put up with all of that pain, Alex.
I tried to be understanding,
because I know I'm at fault.
But not this time.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
If I can't give you a child...
I'll make sure you won't have a child with anyone else!
That child is for Victor and Juliana...
not you!

Sylvia.
Meet me here. I have something to show you.
Why? What's it for?
This will open your eyes to the truth.
What are you saying?
I'm the father of the child you're carrying.
[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]
- Alex... - I'm not lying.
I talked to the guy who administered your DNA test.
He said Sylvia ordered him to tamper with the results.
What?
Sylvia?
But why...
Why would she do that?
She confessed to me.
She might have us arrested!
Sylvia will never do that. If she tells the police,
she'll also put herself in trouble.
It's illegal to manipulate a DNA test result.
She can't tell the police, but she can tell Victor.
Do you know how huge of a mess this is?
You shouldn't have upset her.
What's done is done.
Go to her, talk to her, apologize to her.
Alex, what have you done?
Juliana you have to leave.
I can't. I can't leave Abby. I can't leave my daughter.
- Juliana, listen to me. - This can't be happening.
This shouldn't have happened!
I saw Sylvia and Victor talking.
He's already suspicious.
Is Alex inside?
They must be celebrating right now
since they're having a child, right?
Did he find out because of you?
The truth can't be hidden forever.
And you can't protect Alex forever.
I didn't do it to protect Alex.
I did it for my own sake.
If you're the father of her child,
you and Juliana will reconcile and she will let go of Alex.
You know what? You should be thanking me.
I was saving your marriage.
I already filed charges against them.
I know how much you love Alex,
but I hope you love yourself as much.
[VICTOR] Come on.
[ENGINE TURNS OVER]
[FOREBODING MUSIC PLAYING]
Let's work together, Sylvia.
We'll make them pay.
If you can't, just give me the DNA test results.
I'll take care of the rest.
[MUSIC SWELLS]
Alex deserved to be punished for what he's done.
Victor filed a disbarment complaint against you.
I hate doing horrible things,
but they're testing the limits of my patience.
Are you willing to lose everything?
You should agree to what Victor wants.
What?!
I'll withdraw the charges against you and Alex
if you let me have Abby.
