[PACO CLAPS]

[HORSE WHINNYING]

Aren't you tired yet?

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]



You're all sweaty.

[CHUCKLES] I'm fine.

Um… You have dirt
all over you.

["AKIN KA NA LANG"
INSTRUMENTAL CONTINUES]

There's some
on your hair, too.

- Oh.
- I'll take them off.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

I'm good now. Thanks.

["AKIN KA NA LANG"

["AKIN KA NA LANG"

And then I'll--

Why are you still changing that?

Trust me. It's going
to look better, alright?



- It better, man.
- It will.

Just one little…

- [MAN] What do you got, Mark?
- Just this one…

[SOFT ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]

Why did you change it?

Ms. Lazaro.

I like the other one.

But I like how
perfectionist you are.

Ms. Lazaro, this is Dave.

He's your project engineer.

Um, Dave Estrella, ma'am.

You can call me Becca.

[PACO GRUNTS]

- [GRUNTS]
- [GASPS]

Just my luck. It started
pouring out of nowhere.

Yeah, and you were already
feeling under the weather.

[COUGHS]

I'm fine.

["AKIN KA NA LANG"
INSTRUMENTAL PLAYING]

Hey, don't do it.

It's okay.

I don't want you
to get sick, okay?

What about you?

I'm fine.

I'm not the one feeling unwell.

["AKIN KA NA LANG" CONTINUES]

Cherry.

[SNIFFS]

I still love you.

Cherry, I love you so much.

I know…

I've known since day one

that you would
choose Dave over me.

I've always known that.

But I never stopped
loving you.

That's why I'm willing to wait
until you get over him

and you're ready
to open your heart again.

I'll wait for you.

["AKIN KA NA LANG" CONTINUES]

[FREDDIE GRUNTS]

Cherry Red, you don't have
to clean the house anymore.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

I don't mind doing it, sir.

I'm used to taking care
of the house anyway.

But that's not the point.

You know that you play

a very important role
in this family.

[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]

Ever since Carol passed away,

you've been guiding
my sons.

No one can ever
replace a parent, sir.

I am just lucky

that even though
my parents are gone,

your family is still
there for me.

Well, we only have
each other.

I want you to remember

that above all else,

you are family to us.

[INHALES DEEPLY]

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

[SOFT MUSIC CONTINUES]

[DREW PANTING]
I think I killed a person.

I think I killed somebody!
[PANICKED BREATHS]

Dave, what should I do?!

- [DREW] Help me! Please!
- [DAVE] Calm down.

No.

Drew! Help! Somebody help!

[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

Sir, that sounds impossible.

There wasn't a single witness?

It's not impossible, Paco.

This place is huge.

And it happened late at night.

Sir, during your investigation,

were you able to find out
the last place

Mister Panyong went to?

Yes. He was at your
family's property.

What?!

[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

He was at Cuatro Estrella.

[EXHALES LOUDLY]

Wasn't he
a security guard there?

We asked around,

and no one has
talked to him since then.

We also found out

he started working
for your family just recently.

He went to work, left,
and came home.

He wasn't spotted
anywhere else.

So you decided
to stop the investigation?

We were told that
it was a dead case.

The higher ups
said so themselves.

- [BREATHES HEAVILY]
- [UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]

[INHALES SHARPLY]

Have you been here long?

Um, not really, sir.

- Okay. I'll be back.
- Okay, sir.

Cherry.

Slow down.

You'll end up making
someone's stomach ache.

I'm really ticked off.

The police aren't
doing their jobs.

I'm sure they are.

The case is just difficult
to solve.

How? They already
closed the case.

That's true. For now.

But once they find a new lead,
they'll open the case again.

Cherry, have some faith.

[WOMAN 1] Hey!

-[WOMAN 1] Hey!
-[WOMAN 2] Stop!

-[WOMAN 1] Don't eat that!
-[WOMAN 2] Stop that!

-[WOMAN 1] Go away!
-[WOMAN 2] Stop eating that!

- [MAN] Ow! Ow!
- [WOMAN 2] Go away!

Go away! Get away from here!

- Ow!
- [WOMAN 3] Go away!

- That's enough!
- Cherry!

Enough! Everybody,
that's enough.

[SNIFFLING]

Cherry, don't go any closer.
You might get hurt.

No, Paco. He's just hungry.

Yes.

[SNIFFLING]

[MAN] Just… hungry.

Get as much
as you want, mister.

[SNIFFLING]

[SNIFFS] See?

[SNIFFING]

[OBJECTS CLATTERING]

Bye-bye.

[SNIFFS]

[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]

What?!

You're getting married?

Seb, you haven't
even graduated yet.

[SIGHS DEEPLY]

Colleen's pregnant.

[SIGHS]

I'll take responsibility
and marry her.

- Because I love her.
- Seb.

What do you know
about marriage?

Nothing, but I can learn.

I've made up my mind.

So, I hope…

you'd give me your blessing.

Then you'll take
your inheritance?

You'll still live off my money.

[SOMBER MUSIC CONTINUES]

Seb, are you sure about that?

[SIGHS] Not you too.

What did Papa say?

It doesn't matter.

I'll take full responsibility
for the baby.

Anyway, I hope you can
come home for my wedding.

You can come alone
if Drew's still not okay.

Look, Seb, I just started
working here, okay?

I need to make
a great impression.

Is that so?

[SIGHS DEEPLY]

Okay, fine.

I'll see what I can do, okay?

I'll tell my boss.

Okay, Dave. I'll hold you to it.

Alright.

Bye.

[SIGHS DEEPLY]

[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]

Seb.

[PACO GRUNTS]

Seb, congratulations.

I thought you were against it?

I was just surprised.

I mean, you're getting
married before me.

[SOFT MUSIC CONTINUES]

It doesn't matter
who goes first.

What's important is you love her

and you're sure about
your decision. Right?

- That's right, Cherry.
- [GIGGLES]

- That's why I like you.
- [CHUCKLES]

A toast to my wedding!

- Mm. Cheers!
- Congratulations, Seb!

- Thank you.
- Congratulations.

Oh, that reminds me.

Dave's coming home.

That's good, right?

[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]

[CHUCKLES AWKWARDLY]

Excuse me. I'll just
use the restroom.

[SOMBER MUSIC CONTINUES]

Hey, Cherry Red.

I heard someone's getting
married at the mansion.

Oh, it's Colleen and Seb.

I bet there's going
to be a feast!

Can I go
and eat there? [CHUCKLES]

Sure, but it's going
to be a small wedding.

They don't want to invite
too many people.

By the way,

why are they getting married
all of a sudden?

Colleen got pregnant,
so Seb decided to marry her.

Oh my gosh!
Colleen's pretty smart!

She got herself pregnant
by the horniest Estrella.

It's a miracle Freddie
gave them his blessing.

[CHUCKLES]

What about you?

When will you let one of the
Estrella boys knock you up?

Paco's the only one left.
Someone might beat you to him.

[SIGHS] There you go again.

Come on, I was just kidding!
You're too serious!

Goodness.

Does that mean…

Seb's two brothers are
coming home from America?

[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]

Hey.

How come you're still
not dressed?

[SIGHS DEEPLY]

Is my makeup okay?

Do I look fat?

Come on, don't be nervous.

You're gorgeous.

I just saw Seb at the garden.

He's sulking.

Why?

[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]

He hasn't heard from Dave yet.

Seb really expected him to come.

Don't worry.

With or without Dave,

your wedding will push through.

Today's all about you and Seb.

Okay?

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

[SIGHS]

You always know
what to say, huh?

[CHUCKLES]

Thank you, Cherry.

I hope you find someone
who will truly make you happy.

[SOFT MUSIC CONTINUES]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

We're all just waiting for you.

Yes, we're coming!

You're too excited.

- [CHUCKLES]
- See you downstairs.

[CHUCKLES]

Enjoy the food.

- Is it good, Miss Belen?
- Yes! I can't stop eating!

- [CHUCKLES]
- Cherry.

Here. Eat up.

- Thank you.
- Sure.

Don't be shy. Eat up.

[CHERRY] Want some?

- I'll feed you.
- I'm fine.

[GLASSES CLINKING]

- [GUESTS CHEERING]
- [ROMANTIC MUSIC PLAYING]

[APPLAUSE]

[PACO] Excuse me.

Okay.

[SEB] Pa.

- Congratulations, my boy!
- Thank you, Pa.

You too, Colleen.
I'm so proud of you.

[PACO] Hey.

- Paco.
- Congratulations, dude!

- [SQUEALS, CHUCKLES]
- [FREDDIE] She's so happy.

- Congratulations!
- Cherry!

Thank you!

I'm so happy for you two!

Don't get tired
of loving each other, okay?

Of course! [CHUCKLES]

Can you believe it?
I'm married to an Estrella!

You really can't tell
where life will lead you.

It would've been perfect
if the brothers were complete.

Tsk.

You're right.
But what can we do?

Dave's probably really busy.

You know what, Cherry Red?

You keep pining for
the one who left

that you're failing
to notice the one

who has always stayed
by your side.

Look over there.

[INAUDIBLE]

[DAVE SIGHS]

- Seb?
- Yeah?

Uh…

Can I borrow your phone?

Don't forget to give it back.

[PHONE RINGING]

Why didn't you come home?

It's your brother's wedding!
He was expecting you!

Look, Cherry.

I was wrong, okay?
I should've gone there.

I'll just talk to Seb, okay?

Why? Can't we at least talk?

Are you that busy?

Dave, do we have a problem?

We don't, Cherry.

Look, I'll just explain
everything to Seb.

Why don't you want
to talk to me?

[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]

Okay, fine. I'll admit it.

I was looking forward
to seeing you.

Hey! Dave! Talk to me!

[SIGH SHARPLY]

We have nothing
to talk about, Cherry.

You know what?

You're the worst.

I can accept you
changing your mind about us,

but I can't accept you
treating me this way.

[SOBS]

Dave, what did I ever do to you?

[SOMBER MUSIC CONTINUES]

[CRYING]

Cherry, aren't you
going to eat?

[STIFLED SOBS]

[SOMBER MUSIC CONTINUES]

[SOBBING]

Are you okay?

[SNIFFLES]

[VOICE SHAKING]
Yeah, I'm coming.

Let's go.

[SOMBER MUSIC CONTINUES]

Yes, Mr. Santos.
I'll take care of your order.

Okay, thank you.

Cherry.

Cherry, please!
Come on!

Come with me. Let's go.

Where are you
taking me this time?

To a vacation spot
not far from here.

Paco, we have so much
work to do.

- You're overworking yourself.
- I can't let work pile up.

Cherry, I promise we'll finish
everything on time.

But, please.

Please?

- [SIGHS]
- Come with me. Please?

Cherry?

When are we leaving?

[SIGHS SHARPLY]

Dave!

- Do you have the final design?
- Yes, ma'am.

- [CLEARS THROAT]
- And your estimate cost is?

Actually, I think we can
cut the cost if--

No.

I think it's fine.

I think it's all worth it.

Great.

You know, among all
the people I've met,

you're the one I like the most.

I mean, your aesthetics
and practicality.

Have you eaten?

Uh… Actually, Becca, I'm…

I'm starving. Let's go.

Come.

[CHUCKLES]

- Let's go!
- [CLEARS THROAT]

Seb.

Seb!

Hey, Seb!

Hmm?

Go lie on the bed
so you can sleep better.

What?

I said, go lie on the bed
so you can sleep better.

You…

You woke me up to tell me
to go back to sleep?

[CHUCKLES]

Why didn't you sleep
on the bed?

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

I didn't want
to wake you up.

Hmm?

[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]

Babe, can you make me
a cup of coffee?

- My head hurts.
- Of course!

One cup of coffee
coming right up.

But… aren't you getting tired
of playing at those gigs?

You're always staying up late.

Let's just focus on
the restobar.

Babe…

Babe, don't worry.

We're going to make it soon.

A producer has contacted us!

- Really?
- Yeah!

Wow! [CHUCKLES]

Congratulations!

You're my lucky charm.

- Love you.
- Love you.

I haven't brushed my teeth.

[CHUCKLES]

[SOFT MUSIC CONTINUES]

[GROANS]

["AKIN KA NA LANG"
INSTRUMENTAL PLAYING]

[PACO] I think I'm starting
to regret recommending you

to be the plant's quality
control supervisor.

You're so meticulous,

I feel like you'd want
to taste each bottle of milk

produced by our plant.

[CHERRY] Am I allowed
to do that?

[PACO] Of course not!

[CHERRY] I know! I'm kidding!

Paco, thank you.

[PACO] For what?

[CHERRY] For trusting me.

For believing in me.

Because of you,

I'm constantly reminded
that I can always start over.

["AKIN KA NA LANG"
INSTRUMENTAL CONTINUES]

[CHERRY GIGGLES]

I told you it's beautiful here.

Thank you.

You keep inviting me
to go out.

And I keep going with you.

Maybe…

Maybe what?

Maybe that means…

you already have
feelings for me.

["AKIN KA NA LANG"
INSTRUMENTAL CONTINUES]

Let's go over there
where the view's better.

- Where?
- Over there.

You can also run
around there.

[CHERRY CHUCKLES]

You don't like it?

No, this is fine.

Hmm…

[CHUCKLING]

Take it easy.

[CHUCKLING]

Hey.

You don't have to impress me.

[DAVE SIGHS DEEPLY]

You know, I'd like to think

that I'm more than
just a client to you.

That is, if you want
to be friends.

Who knows?

We might have a lot
of things in common.

I guess I'm just not
used to going out.

Usually, I just go back and
forth between work and home.

[CHUCKLES] See?

I was just like you
when I was starting here.

I didn't have friends at all.

And for sure, you will agree

that this is a very sad place
to be in when you're alone.

Right?

You know what I did?
I busied myself with work.

That's it.

The usual boring, day-to-day,
cyclical office job.

Until one day, I had enough.

I've always known

that I wanted to run
my own company.

My own store.

So, what I did was…

I stood up, left my desk…

and never came back.

And now…

I'm here.

With you.

[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]

Sir, I think we should
pull over.

We can barely see the road.

We can't do that.

It's dangerous.
The ground's unstable.

We might get caught
in a landslide.

- [UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]
- [ENGINE REVS]

[THUNDER RUMBLING]

How come they didn't warn us
that it'd be raining this hard?

Yeah. The reporter said
the storm won't hit us.

This is bad. Paco's still out
doing deliveries.

[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

- [PANICKED BREATHING]
- [THUNDER RUMBLING]

[BUSY TONE]

Did it ring?

[SEB EXHALES SHARPLY]

[REPORTER ON RADIO]
Due to the heavy rainstorm,

authorities have suspended
travel in all areas.

It is too dangerous outdoors.

Local authorities
have reported a landslide

in a portion of…

- [BUSY TONE]
- Paco…

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

Still nothing?

I can't just sit here and wait.

What?

Cherry!

Cherry, stop!
It's too dangerous!

Hey! Wait up!

Cherry!

[TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES]

[ENGINE REVVING]

[ROCKS FALLING]

Paco!

[TIRES SCREECHING]

[SEB] Could that be Paco?

[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]

[PACO] Cherry?

[CHERRY SOBS]

Paco!

Cherry!

[SEB] Paco!

[SOFT MUSIC PLAYING]

[MOUTHING] Thanks, bro.

[CHERRY SOBBING]

What happened to you?

We got stuck in the mud.

We had to dig around the car
to get out.

Luckily, we got out

before we got caught
in the landslide.

I could've lost you.

[CHERRY SNIFFLES]

Why? Can't you live without me?

I guess you love me now, huh?

[BREATH QUIVERS]

Paco, I've always loved
the four of you.

Cherry, that's not what
I'm talking about.

You know what I mean.

Do you love me?

Yes, Paco.

Pfft.

I love you.

["AKIN KA NA LANG"
BY GIGI DE LANA PLAYING]

I love you, Paco.

[CHERRY CHUCKLING]

What did you say?

I said, I love you.

["AKIN KA NA LANG" CONTINUES]

[BOTH LAUGHING]

Paco! [CHUCKLES]

- You love me?
- Mm-hmm.

[PACO] You really do?

[CHUCKLES]

Are you sure?

- Woo-hoo!
- [GIGGLES]

What's going on?

She said she loves me, bro!

- Nice!
- Whoo!

[PACO] You're not lying?

["AKIN KA NA LANG" CONTINUES]

Let's eat, Auntie.

Cherry Red.

Are you so busy with work

that you only got to
join me for a meal now?

Yes, Auntie. We have to make
so many deliveries

for the products we'll export.

Mm-hmm.

I noticed you and Paco have been
hanging out more often lately.

Be honest with me.

Are you dating?

Uh…

Well…

- Uh… Well…
- [CHERRY CHUCKLES]

We're together now.

["AKIN KA NA LANG"
INSTRUMENTAL PLAYING]

Whoa.

Thank God!

You're finally going out
after all these years!

Jackpot! [LAUGHS]

- There you go again, Auntie!
- What?

I'm not dating Paco for money.

Hmm?

I love him.

Alright. If you say so.

I bet your father would've been
very happy for you.

Cherry Red Estrella.

It's perfect!

- [LAUGHS]
- [CHUCKLES]

- [SEB] What do you think?
- [COLLEEN] Wow! [CHUCKLES]

This is the place
I was telling you about.

We'll build our restobar here.

The setup will be like this:

My band mates and I
will play over here.

We can sell drinks and snacks
to our customers.

So, what do you think?

[SIGHS SHARPLY]

Opening a bar won't be easy,
but I'll support you.

Don't worry, babe.

[BRIGHT MUSIC PLAYING]

We got this.

Why don't you just join
your family's business?

Go back to working
at the farm.

[COLLEEN INHALES SHARPLY]

Babe, you know I have
other plans, right?

[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]

I mean…

[BREATHES HEAVILY]

I don't want to keep relying
on my family forever.

- Seb! [CRIES]
- Colleen--

- Aah! It hurts!
- Colleen!

It hurts!

Aah! [CRYING]

- [BREATHING LABORIOUSLY]
- [UNSETTLING MUSIC CONTINUES]

Just do it tomorrow.

We're going
on a date, remember?

[MAN WOLF WHISTLES]

Hi, sexy.

You're a shameless one,
aren't you?

- What's his problem?
- Paco, they're drunk.

Let's just go.

You think you can scare us
just because you're an Estrella?

You're not the boss here.

- Let's go.
- I'll just talk to them.

- You know--
- [GRUNTS]

- [CHERRY] Paco!
- [GRUNTING]

[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

[GRUNTING]

[CHERRY] Paco! Paco! Stop it!

That's enough!

[PANTING]

[POLICE] The men he beat up
are at the hospital.

Alright. I'll pay
for all the damages.

- Thank you.
- We'll go now.

Pa, they're bastards.

They catcalled Cherry.

I was just trying
to protect my girlfriend.

Girlfriend?

[UNSETTLING MUSIC PLAYING]

Cherry Magwayen, marry me.

Please be with me
for the rest of my life.

Yes, Paco. I will marry you.

[CHEERING, APPLAUSE]

["AKIN KA NA LANG"
INSTRUMENTAL PLAYING]

Cherry Red?

I'm Dave's girlfriend, Becca.

Cherry.

I missed you.

Love?

I hope their wedding
will go smoothly.

I didn't come here
to stop the wedding.

Okay, then. Promise me
that Drew won't be a problem.

The last thing we need

is him revealing something
about the past.

We're finally complete again!

[CHUCKLES]

[SEB] Welcome back, bro.

[DREW] Thanks, Seb.
