Unspoken Passion (2008) - full transcript

Sikil tells the story of two men and a woman who are involved in a bizarre love triangle. These three friends grew up in a small town south of Manila. Enzo is a young closet gay prostitute who's obsessed with his childhood friend who happens to be a call-boy and has a girlfriend. Other interesting characters are the bi-sexual pimp, a regular bathhouse customer, and a sampaguita vendor-pickpocket-shoplifter and caretaker of Adong's daughter.

At long last, it's summer vacation...
We can finally go on a picnic by the river!

My father already spoke with
Mr. Kulas.

You're getting circumcised as well?
My grandmother also spoke with Mr. Kulas...

- Let's do it together.
- That will be great!

Your mother will be proud of you for
getting another medal in school.

What do you think she will reward you with?
She gave you a bicycle last time.

I'm sure you're going to be a scholar in high school.

You got good grades, unlike me.
I hardly passed!

I told you to copy my test answers
during exams.

I don't want to! My Grandma Ising told me that it's
more rewarding when you work hard for something.

Come on, let's race! Winner gets to be the passenger
while the loser pedals the bicycle. Game?



Game?

Remember, the loser has to pedal!

Adong. Help me!

Sucker!

This is my kingdom and I'm honored
to have you as my guest.

And as your king I order you
to do everything that I want.

Yes, your majesty!

Get that!

Imagine that Mr. Kulas is the
tin can...

I really can't do it!

You give up too easily.

Try to relax... take a deep breath... exhale...

Good.

Hold the slingshot tight...
imagine hitting the tin can...



Look at the tin can, not me!

Can you hear the sound of the tin can
falling to the ground?

Take aim.

Concentrate... release!

You hit it!
That was great!

One more time!

See? I told you. If you think
it will happen then it will.

There.

Take another shot.

Run! Jump into the river.

Start chewing the guava leaves.
Keep chewing.

My goodness, is that thing erect?

Take good care of that...
it will be your main asset when the time comes.

The penis is a man's most powerful weapon.

It can make or break you!

Hold your head up high. Chew!

Like that! Run to the river.

Hey Adong! Your rent is late again!
When are you going to pay? When?

Next week, Aling Urata!
Business is slow these days...

Slow? When are you going to pay?
- I told you, next week.

Do you want me to kick you out
of my condo unit?

If you can't pay me half the rent by next week,
I'll throw all your belongings in the river.

Remember that!

Carry me.

Hey, Mrs. Pining!
When are you going to pay?

Do you even intend to pay your rent?
Look at your kid!

Grandma, will you stop fanning yourself?!

Let's go!
- Lady, calm down!

Mind your own business.

Hey, addict! I'm going to tell your mother
about your bad habit.

Time to pay the rent!
Do you have any intention of paying?

Joan needs to take this medicine
three times a day...

I still have money here.

Where did you get the money?

Well, I did some work at the condo...
take it, please!

No.

Take it, please take it.

Coffee?

Two please. Is it good?
- Joanna! Your companion keeps getting younger!

Too bad for you.
I can't help it if I'm pretty!

Excuse me.

That's huge.

Do you want it? Not here. Let's go upstairs.
Rent is only 50 pesos.

Sister! There are no more men downstairs...
they're all upstairs.

Why are you doing business
in a place like this?

You're good-looking.
That face. That body.

And more important, that dick of yours.

You know you'd really sell in a gay bar.
You'll get by just on tips.

I don't know how to dance.

Here.

I organize shows at the bath house...

Bath house? What happens there?

Just call me... you'll find out
when you get there.

What's your name?

Eh? ...Maynard.

I don't kiss.

Thanks for telling me that Grandma
has been waiting for me.

No problem. Hi Grandma!

I have a surprise for you, Menardo.
- Seriously?

So that you'll be protected from the sun
and from the rain.

Menardo, understand that, at your age, you
should learn to overcome life's challenges.

Thank you, Grandma.

Where is Lorenzo?

He went out with Adong.

The heck with that kid! He hasn't
helped with the chores all summer.

Let him be.

Why should I?

That's why he's growing up irresponsible.
You're tolerating his laziness.

Hey, hey!

Tomorrow you'll chop firewood, pump water
from the well and fill the container!

Tomorrow is Sunday.
He'll be serving as altar boy in church.

Hey! Did you hear what I said?

It's this... it's this fucking slingshot!
That's all you've been thinking of! Give it to me.

Dad, give it back!
- When did you learn to talk back?

Leave him alone. It's just a petty thing.
You were a kid once too.

Give it to me. Let go!
- Leave him alone!

When I was a kid, I as working in the field.
Harvesting rice! Catching fish!

Kadyo, give that back to the boy!
Please, it's just a petty thing.

Shut up!

Hard-headed kid.
Is that what you want?

Please don't.
Stop that! You were a kid once too!

Adong!

I feel sorry for Enzo.

Me too.

He's always sad.

Is it nice?
- Yes!

Grandma gave it to me last night.

Does it suit me?
- It does!

You're not kidding me, are you?
- Nope.

Really?
So that means I look very handsome.

Enzo!
- Enzo!

Is she awake?

Not yet. She's still sleeping soundly.

That's good.
Give this to her when she wakes up.

Where did you get this?

I got it back at the condo.

Nice.

I'll be going somewhere tonight.
Please look after her.

I will.

I'll be going.

Okay.

Oh, and please don't forget her medicine.

I won't.

I'm very busy, Gerry.
I have a meeting later.

Mama Froi, just give me some of your time.
Please.

The problem with you is, you've been bringing
all the men you find in that third-class cinema

here in my club!

What do you think of my place? Cheap?

Of course not!
- My vision for this place is to be "world class"

Try this one out. He has a huge dick.
- Huh?

Ah, OK. Let's have a look. Let's go in.

I knew you'd be interested.

Why are you dressed like that? It's still early.
The bitches downstairs might see you.

My God! You know you're not supposed to
play with women before the show.

Because you might have problems
getting an erection later.

Okay.
- Mama Froi's very busy.

Oh! You're there. Okay, strip.
Let me see your body.

He's the one I've been telling you about.
I'm sure you'll be happy with what you see.

Okay.
- You'll be impressed.

You're sure about that?

Maynard, strip.

Looks like he has an attitude problem.
It's taking him too long.

What's wrong with you, Maynard?
Strip!

All of it?

What did I tell you?

Mama...

Later, I'm busy.

Mama Froi... Mama Froi!

So what? Think you can handle that?

Just a souvenir. Okay, Mark! He will do.
Give him a tour. It's his first time.

Mark, take care of him.

What's your name?
- Mama Froi.

Let's go. I'll show you around.

What about my budget? Come on...
- What?

I've already invested a lot of
money in you. In fairness...

Do I really have to be in a towel?

Towels are the dress-code here.
Nothing more, nothing less.

You're not allowed to charge
money here.

No matter what size or color.
Everything is free. Even blowjobs.

What's your problem?

I'm not gay.

Neither am I.

If you want me, you'll have to
pay for it.

The food here is great and cheap.

Is he gay?
- Huh? No. He's married with kids.

Adong, I'm scared.

Don't be scared...
I'm here with you.

Wait! Not too fast.
- Hurry!

Come on, let's climb the tower.
- I don't want to. It's too scary.

No, don't worry.
You go first and I'll help you.

Enzo, wait for me! Enzo!

Help me Enzo!
- Hold on!

Stop fixing that.

Here, take this.
- Thanks.

So that you won't get wet
when it rains.

Thank you Grandma!

I'll be going Grandma!
Try to get some rest.

Menardo, do you know the secret
to a good weave?

When weaving, the thread
should not be

too loose or else it will
be easily torn.

And it should not be too tight
or else it will become brittle

and will also get torn easily.

I finally got back at you, Melay!

This is fun!

Here! Here!

Enzo!

Did you see the foreigner a while ago
when we were at the procession?

Son of a bitch,
she's got big boobs!

Keep up!

Did you know that we got
coverage on TV?

Did you see that?

Wait, wait.

It was the...

Give me a hand.

Melay's nipples were incredible!

It must really feel good to play
with them. I'm getting excited!

By the way, she's coming over
in a while.

She's coming? Why?

We're now sweethearts.

Since when?

Earlier, when we were getting wet
at the procession.

She said yes!
Just don't tell her dad.

If her dad finds out about it...
we're dead!

Wait, I've got some candy here.
You want some?

Thanks.

In the meantime, I need you
to be our "look out".

Look out?

It's cold!
Adong! Stop!

Adong, it's Melay!

Wait, Melay!
We'll be getting out of the water!

What are you guys doing?

Huh? Wait! Just stay there!

Bro, just remember, you're
our "look out".

Are you done?

Almost.

Faster! It's taking you so long.

Why did you do that?

You were peeking, weren't you?

Of course not, why would I do that?

I thought you were going to
visit me in Manila.

I'm still trying to save up
for the fare.

How can you save up for the fare
when you're taking a vocational course?

Maybe I'll just borrow some money
from Enzo.

But his mom just borrowed money
from my dad for his tuition.

Really?
- So now what?

Have you heard the news of
Grandma Ising's death?

When?

Last month.

My father never mentioned
anything about it.

And how are you getting along?

Well... sometimes I work
in the garage,

sometimes in construction,
sometimes in the restaurant.

You should see how handsome I am there.
- I didn't know you were so hard-working.

Hey, come closer.
How about a kiss?

I don't want to.
What do you think of me?

Come on!
Please?

Only one!
On the cheek.

Let's go down there.

Be careful of your legs.

I'm okay!

Adong! Melay!
Someone's coming!

Adong?

Melay?

Adong!

Stop kidding me!

I love you, Adong!
- I love you!

- Enzo, let's meet back in town!

Adong!
- Bye bye, Enzo.

Tell your mother that she still
owes me money.

Brother!
- What's up?

How about letting me join you
in your racket.

What racket?
You're too...

Too young?
I have erections and pubic hair.

Asshole! Why do you insist
on staying in a place like this?

Life is good here.
I never get busted.

Go home, bro. Go back to the
province.

Hey! Your addict friends are
hanging around here again.

What if the cops raid
this place? Huh? Huh?

It's not like you don't have
the money to bribe the cops.

Asshole!

Bro!
- What?

For Joanne.
- What's this? No need for this.

Come on, it's for Joanne.
It's my turn.

Thanks.
- Sure thing, Bro.

Careful!

Adong!

What?

Cut!
Did you say, "Lawrence"?

I said no ...!
Watch those breasts.

I told you not speak.
I just want to hear moans.

Did I say something?
Why you called this guy "Dong"?

What is the name of the movie?

"The scandal of Puerto Galera"!

Haven't we already used that title?
- It was "Puerto Princesa".

I want you to take it gently
and I just want to hear sighs.

Not a single word.

Ready?
- Yes Boss!

Be silent! Listen up!

The producers are going to kill me.
We are spending a lot of rolls.

Come on! In position!
Is the camera ready?

Yes, I'll tell you.

Ursula, on top!
Lawrence make us feel it! Okay?

All right. Go, Lawrence!

Ursula, yes! Just like that.

More passion!

Like that! Let's go!

Enzo! Happy birthday!
Every year you get more annoying.

That's just how things are.

What do you have there?
Cover it up1

What is it?

We'll save this for later.
After we eat.

This is dessert!

Let's take a bath first!

Give me your clothes, quick!
- I don't want to!

Forget that. It's your birthday,
let's take a dip!

That's okay. Go ahead, this
will just take a minute.

You're really annoying.

I'm itchy all over!

You're itchy?
- Yeah, I came from the garage.

Give that to me.
I'll wash those as well.

You know, a foreigner's car
broke down along the highway.

Good thing he paid me in Euros!

Oh?
- He even gave me a tip!

A tip?
- Yeah!

Give me the soap.
- Here.

Close your eyes, friend.

Huh?
- Close your eyes.

Why?

Just do it.
I have a gift for you.

It's your birthday but you're
the one giving me a gift?

Close your eyes.

You're just full of surprises.

What's taking you so long?

It's almost there.

What?
- You can open your eyes now.

Not yet, I'm still
visualizing it.

Up to you!

Okay, I will.

What is it?
You know I'm not fond of jewelry.

Wait. It looks antique.

Does the pendant symbolize
the two of us?

Where did you get the money
to buy this?

It was given to me by grandpa
Cosme.

Now it's my turn to give
you a gift.

Wait for me to put this on.

Here, let me help you.

Looks good!
- Does it suit me?

Of course. Now it's time
for me to give you your gift.

Dessert is served.

Wow, Bro. This is great!

Son of a bitch!
Look at the boobs on that one!

I'm getting really horny!

Oh, Melay!

Adong!
- Melay!

Yes! I'm coming, Adong!

Cut.
What the hell did you say again?

Did I say something?

I heard you say something!

My god! We've been working on
that fucking moan for a month!

Direk, I think he said Dong, or
was it Atong? Or Akong?

My god, Lawrence, please!

We're doing this again!
Ready!

Maynard, wear this.

You're still wearing jewelry?
Take it off!

Don't be nervous. Relax.
Your partner is on his way.

Who did you get?

Maurice got sick. But we were
able to find his replacement.

Is he good?

Maurice said this guy has done
several video sex scandals.

Hurry up!

We'll arrive late!

Faster! Get dressed! Take a
shower! What are you waiting for?

You smell like beer!

Fasten it well!
Faster! People are waiting!

Where's the button?

Enzo?
- Adong...

But...

Good thing we're the same
size.

Where are you guys going?

I'm going over to Melay's.

What's the occasion?

It's her father's birthday.
I'm going with Melay.

You're the only one invited in our town.
All the guests will be from Manila.

Mother, they're already
sweethearts.

Does Melay's father know
about this?

We're planning to tell him today.

Aling Norma, I'll go now.

Enzo, thanks a lot.
I'll return this tomorrow.

Okay, take care.

Good afternoon, Mr. Kadyo!

Let's go!

Dad!

Melay! Wait!

Enzo, I need your bike!

Why?

Hey! Where are you taking that?
Come back here! Adong!

Enzo!

Adong!

Enzo, no!

Enzo! Son!

Carmela!

Help me. I'm going to take Carmela
away. We're leaving this place.

Only you can go near her! You're
the only one who can go to her house!

Please, help me.

Adong! Melay!

Eh!

Friend.

Thank you.

Take care of yourselves.

Thank you.

Keep it, it's yours!

Norma!

Where's the bread?

Enzo, where are you going?

To Manila.

What will you do there?

Look for work.

Son, you'll go hungry in Manila.
Stay here and finish your studies.

Go back to school?
When will that be, Mom?

I'm supposed to be in third year
by now.

How many times did I stop because
we don't have money for tuition?

Mom, I'm sick of waiting!
I'm tired of making sausages!

Kadyo, please top Enzo.

Why should I?

He's a grown man!
Let him go!

When he gets hungry
he'll be back.

Do you really think
you can find Adong?

Well, you're wrong!

The police are looking
for Adong.

In the Pasig river! I'm sure
that's where you'll find him.

I know.

What's so funny, Kadyo?

Oh... you of all people...

You should have been first to
find out, because you're a woman.

Isn't that right, Lorenzo?

Faggot!

Faggot!

Son, no.

You want to fight?
You want to fight?

What kind of job will you get
in Manila? Huh?

A manicurist?

Kadyo, stop that.
Stop!

Faggot!

What?

Both of you stop it!

Whatever I am today,
it's all because of you!

Whatever I want to do
is none of your business!

You've no more obligations.
Leave me in peace!

Enzo.

Enzo.

Both of you hurry up!
A lot of people are waiting!

Where did my button go?

Looks like you got your buttons
in the wrong holes. Let me see.

Since when have you been here
in Manila?

Since right after you and Melay
eloped. How is she?

We're through.

Really.

Has it already been five years?
Seems like it was just yesterday.

All along I was imagining you
already had a child back home.

I'm still single.

Seriously? Baby butt!

Let's go!

Wait.
- What?

Have you been doing this a long time?
- Of course.

What am I supposed to do?
- Just copy me. Imagine I'm Melay.

Smart ass!

What?

Concentrate. Relax. It's easy.
If you think it's real, it's real.

Just imagine we're the only
two people in the world.

Inhale... exhale.

Like that, very good.

Don't worry. Perfect.

You were great! Where did
you learn to act like that?

I took an acting workshop
from a director.

Really now? So you're an actor?
Can I get your autograph?

I've also appeared in
a few videos.

It's a good thing that you were
my partner. Who would have guessed?

Well, well, well. The stars of
the night. Congratulations.

Our patrons enjoyed the show.
Good job.

You were like old lovers reunited
again after so many years.

I'll be getting the both of you
again to star in my other sex shows!

Maynard, there's someone who
would like to meet you. He's rich!

If you're interested, he'll pick
you up and bring you to a hotel.

You interested?
- Well, sure.

I'm OK, friend!
I can go three more rounds.

Money is not a problem!
Just name your price!

I'll just call you when your
service gets here. Okay?

Sure... sure.

I thought we were going to do
some catching up after the show?

Some other time, friend. I really
need money. Your godchild got sick.

My godchild?

Yeah, Melay and I had a daughter.

Maynard, your ride's here.
Do a good job.

Call me right away.
Do you have a phone number?

Don't have one.

What's your address
here in Manila?

Don't have one either...
but I have a condo unit.

Here. Call me at that number.

Okay.

Looks like you're doing
very well.

I'll go. You don't know how
happy I am to see you again!

There's lots of things to talk about.
The important thing is, you're alive.

You're a great actor. I can't stand
the drama! I've a racket to go to!

Remember to call me!
- Sure thing!

Hello.

Who? Yes?

Maynard who?

Adong!

It's a good thing you called.

Why don't you move in with me?

The landlady is nice.

Really?

My apartment is separate
from the main house.

Really?

Okay, I'm on my way.

She looks exactly like Melay.
Same white complexion.

What's her name again?

Joanne. She was born on June 24.

Isn't that the day you and Melay
became sweethearts at the fiesta?

You still remember that day?

I don't know why I have
such a keen memory!

When was the last time you
were in the province?

I haven't gone home since
the day I left.

I miss playing with water during
our town fiesta.

Do you still have money?
How much more do you need?

Just a little more.

I can borrow money from someone
I know.

No. Thanks for offering, but...

What's the matter with you?
Swallow your pride.

Joanne's my godchild.
We're family.

I don't have the money to pay
you back.

Who said anything about
paying me back?

Thanks, Enzo. Thanks.

Melay and I had a civil wedding.

We stayed at her friend's house.

I got jobs at the pier, a garage,
in construction. I did odd jobs.

When she gave birth, we rented
a room.

Let's go there. I didn't know she
was secretly meeting her dad.

But her dad couldn't accept
Joanne.

Melay's father made her choose.

The thing is...

She chose her father. Being
away from Melay is okay with me.

Just as long as she took Joanne
with her.

The bad thing is, she left me
with Joanne.

You were right.

She couldn't stand up for me.

I told you.

Wait, you have something.

Maya and I were neighbors there
at the railroad tracks.

When she was orphaned
I took her in.

After that, she did chores around
the house

and she takes care of Joanne.
We moved from one squat to another.

Everywhere we went our house
was demolished. We ended up here.

You live here?

So this is your condo unit.
Why don't you move in with me?

I have a spare room.

I live alone anyway.
- Thanks, bro. Thank you.

Did you hear that? We finally
have a place to live. With Enzo!

What? I don't want to. I'd rather stay.
I'd just be a nuisance to both of you.

Maya! Don't disrespect me
in front of my friend!

Hey! Open the door!

Hope you don't mind.
- It's okay, friend.

Anyway, I think it's the fad.

You're going?

Yeah, bro. I'm leaving this
hell hole behind.

Is he your boyfriend?

Jerk! He's my childhood friend
and Joanne's godfather.

Bro, how about introducing me
to some of your customers?
- Customers?

I've learned how to give blowjobs.

You're really an asshole!
We're going.

Hey!

You big jerk! You really think
you can get away that easy?

Let's go.
- You still owe me two weeks' rent!

Let's go!

Arrogant asshole!

Stupid jerk!

That cellphone you snatched the
other day... I'm going to buy it.

I'll think about it.

You better think about it.

You son of a bitch! You're not going
to pay me after cumming so fast!

There! Eat your cum!

Sister, you want to score?

Thanks.

I need money!

I don't have money.

Gerry, that's impossible.

What did you mean?

I know you've had lots of rackets.

You know me?

Yes.

You were my first pimp.

You've been deceiving a lot of
people, you faggot!

I've killed him.

My baby is feeling better!
Kiss daddy!

Give your respects to godfather Enzo!

You'll stay at my place, okay?

I don't want to. I'm not coming.

Are you disrespecting me? You'll
join us whether you like it or not!

I'll just be a nuisance there!

Come back here! Maya!

Wow!

This awesome!
This is way too much!

Look baby, lots of balloons!

You like this, darling?

I want nothing but the best
for my godchild.

You might spoil her.

That won't happen.

Don't worry. I'll look for Maya
so that we can all be together.

She's getting heavy!

Look at the toys. Do you like
balloons?

Do you want me to cook dinner
now, dear.

Who are you calling dear,
you crazy jerk?

You're so cute!

Come back here!

Thanks for always being there
for me.

It's nothing.

You're really something!

Where are you going?

Escort service.

Maybe you can refer me to one
of your clients.

If there's an opportunity,
I will.

Hello?

Who?

Maynard? It's for you.

Hello? Who is this?

Paul, how are you?

It's been a long time!

Tomorrow? Sure!
You know I can't say no to you.

You're taking me shopping?

Okay. Sure! Okay! Yeah, sure!

Let's meet tomorrow then.
Goodnight. Bye!

How do you turn this thing off?

Who's Paul?

Do you remember the first time
we met at the club?

Someone introduced me to him.
You gave me your card, remember?

He asked for my contact number,
so I gave him yours.

Is that okay?

What can I do?
You've already given him the number.

Sorry.
- Next time, ask permission first.

I've got to go.
- Don't I get a goodbye kiss?

How about this instead?

I was just kidding.

How about you? What do you want?
Eggs?

Thank you.

Here.

What's this for?

To buy groceries. Then, pay the
water and electricity bills.

Save up for Joanne's education.
Keep it.

Okay.

Nice watch. It's blinding.

You like it?
Paul gave it to me.

Where's the party?

The party?
- Yeah.

I think it's going to be
at his friend's house.

He even paid me in advance.
Just so I'll attend this party.

One month's earnings. I'm okay
even if I don't work for a month.

Hello? Yes, Paul.

I'm on my way. Yeah, sure.

Yes. Okay. Bye.

So you already have a phone.

This is high-tech.

What's your number?
Save my number.

Well, I don't know my number.

And besides, Paul will get mad
if I put in anybody else's number.

Need to go. Bye.

Paul!

Who are you?

Paul? It's not funny!

Paul! Motherfucker! What is this?

Paul! That's nonsense!

You're scaring me!

Paul! Stop!

Fuck you!

Look, they hit him.
- Adong!

Animals!

Carefully.

What happened to you?

I have been treated like an animal.

You know, if only you were a woman,
then you'd be my wife.

Really?

Yeah! It's already like we're
married.

The only thing missing is sex.

Didn't we already have sex?

You're such a jerk.
Give me that!

Baby, can you open the door please?

Bro, why don't you guys step out
for a while?

I already know what you're
going to say.

Your father's dead and you're
finally free to do whatever you want.

Yes, but...

You remarried...
but he's sterile...

You don't want to adopt. You want
someone who's your own blood.

Adong.

You're sorry for all the things
you've done...

Or you want us to be together
again and start a new life?

There's not much time left to live, and
you want to be with your daughter before you die.

I just want you to know that I'm
going to America.

I really don't care whatever
you want to do with your life.

Kill yourself for all I care!

I don't give a damn!

I just want to make a better life
for our child.

Let's start a new life.

Is that possible Adong?

Is that possible?

You went away for a long time and
now you have the nerve to say that?

You know, anywhere you want to go...
even if you were going to the moon!

Why are you like that Adong?
Please forgive me.

We don't need you around here!
Get out, okay?

What are you waiting for?

Never come back, okay?

Let's drink.

You came home pretty late.

Where's Joanne?

Sleeping.
She fell asleep waiting for you.

I think it's time to send her
to kindergarten.

She's growing up fast.

The other day

she asked me about our jobs.

I told her that we both work
in an office.

Have you ever thought of starting
a new life? Get a different job.

And do what?

Janitor?

Waiter?

Security guard?

Or a stevedore in the wet market!
Maybe that suits me.

Is this really what you want
to do for the rest of your life?

Who ever said that?

Who in his right mind would want
to treat his body like shit?

Sometimes, we need to get hurt,
before we realize our mistakes.

But whatever happens in life,

we still have the power to
change our fate.

Have you thought about that?

You can still change your fate
if you wanted to.

Bro, you make it sound so easy.

Adong, it is really easy.

Don't complicate things
with your life.

Have you given thought to Melay's
offer of moving to America?

Come on, bro,
let's go inside the house.

Okay. I'm drunk.

Let's eat!
Where are the two of you going?

We're going to visit Melay.

Looking great!

Promise to behave, okay?

Okay, give godfather a kiss.

Bye bye.
- Bye bye.

Take good care of yourselves.

We have a scheduled show
tomorrow.

Let's practice.

Think you can do that?

Of course I can!

Do it to me, then.

It's very easy.

When you're in America...
don't forget me, okay?

Why would I forget you?
Stop being paranoid.

Am I doing the right thing
with your nipple?

Do it harder!

Let's just practice tomorrow.
I don't think you're in the mood.

Can you feel anything?

Huh? Where?

Adong, it started
when we were kids...

What?

Why is it that my father, who
had a heart of stone, felt it?

I really can't understand you!

Son of a bitch!
What's wrong with you?

Can you feel anything?

Enzo, you're not gay.
You just think you're gay.

I don't know what I am.
Listen,

All I know is... there's something
in my heart that beats only for you!

Adong? Adong!

What?

I would just like to ask if you
wanted to join us moving to America.

No, just go without me.

Is that all?

I also wanted to thank you.

For what?

For convincing Adong.
Thank you.

It's nothing.

I have to go.
They're waiting for me.

Enzo, Adong loved you too.

When we eloped,
he kept talking about you.

I never could have him
completely...

because you were always there
between us.

The friendship that you two had,
that's what keeps him strong.

Melay!

Take care of Adong for me.

Take good care of him.

If you ever hurt him again...

I will kill you.
Remember that, Melay.

If you hurt him again I will
kill you! I swear!

Never hurt him again.

If you ever hurt him again...
I'm going to kill you.

Everything will be okay.
- I'll kill you, you hear?

Calm down! We'll be okay.
- If you hurt him...

Calm down.
- I'll kill you.

If you hurt him...

Look.

Are you okay?
- Yes.

Are you still hoping your son
will come back?

Just think of it this way:
that Lorenzo went abroad,

made a good life for himself,
and has forgotten about you.

I wonder whether he misses the
local sausages here,

or maybe he's already eating
a different kind of sausage!

Stop being sentimental, Norma!

It's only natural for a daughter to
leave the house once she's married.

Who knows? Maybe he found Adong in
Manila and they're living together.

Maybe they adopted children. Isn't
that your dream? To have grandchildren?

Do we have any food to go
with liquor?

Norma!

I'm going out!
I'll come back later.

You've been out all afternoon! Pig!
- Son of a bitch!

I dare you to come closer!

Pig!

Some time ago, my son left,
and never came back because of you.

I'm going to make sure that someone
else will leave this house...

But I guarantee you, it won't be me!
- You bitch!

I've been a corpse in this house
for far too long.

A very long time!

But I won't have second thoughts of
returning you, to your real wife and kids, a corpse!

But... the mistake I made with
my son Enzo will never happen again!

I'm not asking you to love me,
Kadyo.

I don't need you to.

Just respect me as a human being.

And respect me if you want
to stay in my house!

What?

Enzo!

I found Maya.

She's agreed to stay with me.

Tomorrow I'll pick her up at
the condo.

That's good news.

Do you have the tickets for
the flight?

If we're going to do this
out of pity, or gratitude...

then it's better to despise me
for what I am,

Rather than loving that person
who is not the real me.

We're doing this because
we need each other...

so we can live, and hope...

and love.

Kadyo, take care of the banderitas.
You might as well give them to Rita
or we might be late.

Don't worry about it.
I'll take care of it.

Oh my god!

How are you? Tell me, son!
- I'm okay, mom.

Let's go inside so you can eat.
Kadyo! Kadyo! Kadyo!

Enzo, come and have a snack.
- Yes, mother.

Kadyo, bring your son's things
upstairs.

Hurry up!
- Yes, yes.

You're not concentrating.

I thought you'd already left.

Melay, Joanne and I wanted to
celebrate the town fiesta first.

It's Joanne's birthday today.
The 24th. We're expecting you.

Brother.

Say you'll come.
- I'll be there.

I can't wait.

You haven't changed one bit!
You're still a crybaby!
