01x48 - Tamis ng oo

[bunniefuu]

Well, since Orange spoiled it.

Can I court you?

Sis?

What now? You're taking so long.

You're just standing there.

Together!

One more, one more.

But…

What "But"?

There's a plot twist?

Barok, I said yes because
I want to get to…

to know you beyond our friendship.

But, I can't guarantee if--

No problem.

I'm just happy you gave me a chance.

Can I hug you?

No.

What, Hug?

I'm sick of you two.

I wish everyone could have that.

Orange.

I wish.

Jimmy Boy.

Hey.

How are you?

What's up?

What's this story Dos is telling about you
having a letter that could help you?

If it's about a letter,
I would have written it myself.

I wrote a lot of love letters in my youth.

I'm not sure if that would help though.

And besides…

I don't want to get my hopes up.

You're so emo.

What's "Emo"?

Emo?

Emo? You don't know?

Those who wear all black and eyeliner.

It's popular among teenagers.

They like being sad.

They don't know,
it gets sadder when you grow older.

I don't understand.

How about "Getting in my hair"?

Never mind. Don't mind me.

It's just work exhaustion.

Here's the thing, Jimmy Boy.

Words of wisdom, okay?

While there's life, there's hope.

I know it's worn out.

Like my shoes here.

It's not like I can't afford new ones.

But they're durable.

Reliable, and trustworthy.

You get it?

Of course.

I get it.

So, every time you see a little bit
of hope, you should gather it.

Because, it's like light.

When it accumulates,
it covers the darkness.

I didn't know you were so poetic.

Does it pass?

Absolutely.

But seriously.

You know, when my mom got sick…

and I did things
that I still regret to this day,

I thought God had abandoned me.

But every time her health got better,

even if it didn't make a huge difference
in her overall health,

I collected all the hope
that she would get better.

So when she was gone,
it didn't hurt as much.

It wasn't as dark.

So don't you falter, okay?

Just keep fighting.

I'll try that.

Just keep fighting.

God is testing us.

He knows if you're a good person.

He'll return your goodness to you.

I'll pray for you, okay?

Thanks.

I have to go now.

Alright.

Take care.

Thanks.

Get well.

Thanks.

With all the things I'm praying for,

will God still listen if I ask for
another chance at love?

How are you feeling, son?

You okay?

You're the one who's sick, Lodipaps.

-You know what I mean.
-I'm fine.

-Are you okay?
-I'm fine.

Even more motivated now that you're here.

We don't lose when we fall.

We lose when we fall
and don't get back up.

Okay, let's call the fighters!

Juan Todas and his opponent, Dos Laurente!

Here we go! Here it is!
Let's get started! Attention everyone!

Who will bring the terror tonight?

Juan, Dos, or me?
Just kidding! Just joking!

The two are sizing each other up!
Whose your bet? Make some noise!

Who's rooting for Juan Todas? Cheers!

Who can beat Baby Boy Dos in looks?
To Baby Dos Laurente!

Now, who would you like to date?
Shout it out! Just teasing!

There you go! Just for fun!

Call your neighbors,
the night's just starting!

What's this? This fight takes after me,
it's also beautiful!

So, what's happening here?

Who is Dos eyeing?

-Baby Loves?
-Close! Close! Look!

Concentrate!

There it is! Juan Todas
is throwing a series of punches!

I can't handle it, guys! Impressive!

-Jab! Jab! Straight!
-Bam! Baby Boy Dos won't be left behind!

Boom! Scary, you got punched in the face!

Your Dos is tired now!

Get up Dos! Get up!

You still have to go to school!
Just kidding!

Are you good?

Get up!

Wow! Bam! He's getting up!
Bam! He'll crush you!

You're okay.

Okay, okay.

Your movement is fine.

Just extend your jab.

Because you're both being too cautious,
it's not reaching.

When you jab, watch for the counter.

When you jab, give the counter.

Dodge, then get in.

Get in on the left, then hit him here.

Give a hook and then go straight.

But you're okay. You're okay, right?

That's fine. Alright.

Okay, let's go! Come back, everyone!
Has everyone had their coffee?

Cover up. Cover.

Close it.

There! Nice!

What now, ladies? Can Dos make a comeback?

Oh my! Dos is so fired up!
Here he goes! Bam!

Hey, are we playing hide-and-seek?
Come out, Juan Todas!

Wow, a punch from the oppressed!
Hitman punch, like that!

For those who are math whizzes
out there, count! Count!

Juan Todas is down!

Say goodnight!

The baldies group is crying again!
The bald ones over there!

And the winner is Dos Laurente!

Now, I'll tell you what to do.
Give them a round of applause, besties!

Alright, congratulations!

What's it for?

You're quite busy, huh?

Ignoring me?

Fine.

I'll never pay my debt to you.

This kid.

Of course, I'm checking the taste.

Try it.

-Go ahead.
-See that!

Ignored, then ordered around.

You're just using me, aren't you?

You're getting upset already.
Go ahead, taste it.

Since I'm the only one with taste,
let me taste.

Here you go.

Slowly.

So intense! What is it?

Barok!

What is this? It's so salty.
Are you trying to poison me?

Are you sure it's salty?

Is my reaction not enough?
What's it for anyway?

Never mind.

I'm just trying something new
while our eatery isn't busy.

Trying something new?

Are all the veggies
from Bahay Kubo in here?

Not so loud.

Tinay might hear us
from the other end of the complex.

Don't exaggerate.

Trina is too far away. She won't hear me.

She's just at the other end, right?!

So, wait.

Is this for Trina?

Is this for Trina?

No.

Maybe.

Doesn't matter.

I just wanted to try something new,
something different.

Different?

Barok, if you want something
new and different, it tastes awful.

You're really something.

It's not that.

Too much of anything isn't good.

The more you put of something,
the worse the outcome is.

Where did you learn that?

Less is more.

The less fuss, the more effect.

That's beautiful, Barok.

That came out of nowhere.

I'll make that my status later.

But that's for Trina, right?

Fix it.

It's salty. Add some water.

What?

Alright, alright.

Get some water. I'll handle this.

-Give it.
-Watch it, okay?

You're just messing around.

No, I'm not. Water.

Is this dog food?

There.

Yes?

Wow.

That's complete, boss.

There it is.

They'll give it to the others
by the next boxing match.

They just want to test it, boss.

What?

Are you sick?

No, boss.

Why haven't you left yet?

Boss, isn't there even
a simple 'good job' for me?

Nope.

This is just the beginning.

No one saw this
being handed to you, right?

I don't think anyone saw, boss.

Lucio was keeping watch too.

Because you know what I do
to those who betray me, right?

I send them to another world.

-Let me see.
-I'm fine, Doc.

I'm okay.

Oh my god! Your fight earlier was intense.

If he had landed one more punch,
you'd definitely be in the hospital.

No.

He's just getting beaten up
to make the fight exciting.

-He could handle it.
-Dad.

-That's nothing.
-Dad.

Yeah?

I saw something earlier.

What?

I think…

I think they're using
the boxing matches to sell drugs.

That seems impossible.

That's over.

Are you sure?

Keep an eye on those who like to show off.

-Yes, boss.
-I don't like my…

business getting messed up, you know.

Ouch!

Was that on purpose?

No, sir, I'm sorry. Please forgive me.

Do you want me to purposely
starve your family too?

No, sir. I apologize, Mr. Seng.

It just happened.

What did you see?

Tempo.

Yes.

He was talking to some
wealthy-looking people.

Then they secretly exchanged envelopes.

Are you sure?

Are they using the boxing matches
for their own business?

We can't get involved with drugs again.

That has to stop.

That's right, Dad.

But we need to find proof.

Right? Otherwise, they'll just say
this is more gossip.

But you saw it?

Yeah, I did.

Gossip. There are already gossipers here.

Boss, you have nothing to worry about.

Put more eyes
in every corner inside here.

And as for you, Tonio.

Me, Mr. Seng?

I'm sure…

you'll tell me if you see
any troublemakers, right?

Of course, sir, yes.

Of course, yes.

Were talking about you Mr. Seng.
I'm loyal to you.

What else?

I'll leave now.

Do you want anything?

Get some food.

Alright, boss.

Barok.

Is your mother not around?

She asked me to close up.

She didn't say what time.

So, this is my chance.

That's true.

My bestie went home early too.

So, I'm the only beautiful one left here.

Hey, Barok!

You didn't tell me I'm your type.

You're really the one I want.

Really?

Well, of course, you're straightforward.

You tell the truth.

If it's ugly, you will say it's ugly.

That's what I like about you.
You're honest, so come on.

Alright, I'll take that
as a compliment then.

Here it is.
Go ahead. Taste it.

Wait a moment.

What is this anyway?

-Don't mind what's in it.
-Dessert with shrimp paste?

Yes, that's the filling.

Just taste it.

Barok, in fairness to you.

You're a fast learner.
You're really something else!

Really?

Yes, really.

This is so different from the poison
you let me taste last night.

Now, it's getting there.

How did you do it?

Well, you said less is more.

So, I just simplified it.

And now you're full of yourself, huh?

Maybe when this becomes famous,
you'll ignore me.

Of course, I'll notice you.

-Really?
-I'll give you a wave.

Like that.

How?

-Like that.
-Like that.

Yes, Barok.

And I'll feel giddy when you notice me.

Like that.

Then we see each other.

Hey!

Like that.

-Hey!
-Hey!

Yes.

Right? When I shout Barok!

-Orange! Like that?
-Yes, like that.

Orange!

There. Press it there.

Press it hard.

Is this okay, Dad?

Yup.

I'm just imagining someone
massaging me too.

It looks so good, right?

Okay, fine.

-Let's rotate.
-There.

You keep dropping hints.

What could that be, Dad?

That.

I don't know.

But I don't like it either.

Maybe it's related
to what I saw yesterday?

What did you see, Bro?

Draw?

Drawing? Drawing?

Maybe it's mine, because I like--

No, it's different, Bro.

Different.

I have a feeling there's still
drug dealing going on.

We're not sure yet.

We haven't been here long enough,
so we don't know.

I'm sure there's a lot.

Whatever it is…

it needs to stop,

because many people are affected.

You know, one day,
Mr. Seng will get caught.

No, Bro. It might be better
if we just keep quiet.

So no one gets hurt, right?

You know how it is.

Know what?

What do you know?

Do you know something?

Nothing.

Do you know something we don't?

Nothing, nothing, nothing.

No, nothing.

I just said maybe…

Because, you know…

it's difficult to confront Mr. Seng.

Of course, he controls
everything here, right?

Tonio's right.

We don't know what he's capable of.

We just need to be careful.

Let's be sure about what Dos saw first.

We hide the truth…

because we're afraid of hurting
the ones we love.

I heard you need money for your wife.

Here.

If anyone asks, Tonio,
did you see anything?

But what if hiding the truth…

is what will hurt them in the end.
