00:00We need to help.
00:02All of our lives are in our lives.
00:04Even our loved ones in our lives.
00:06We need to take care of Edong.
00:10What are we doing now?
00:12He's innocent!
00:14But it's done, son.
00:16You're done. We're here.
00:18I'm sorry, Uncle.
00:20Edong tells us to be hurt.
00:22Even if it's hard for me,
00:24Edong, at this point,
00:25whatever is possible,
00:27we need to remember everything.
00:28We're surrounded by villains.
00:30We're surrounded by evil.
00:32We're going to take care of people.
00:33We want to take care of ourselves.
00:35And I feel like we're just waiting
00:38for those who will be the first of us.
00:40I'll kill you and I'll make sure!
00:42Fucking pay!
00:44I'm not going to take care of
00:45until I finish what I need to do.
01:01with that joy.
01:02I don't know even...
01:28I'm not going to take,
01:28like me...
01:28I'm not going to come up here.
01:28I don't know.
02:01I don't know.
02:31I don't know.
03:21I don't know.
03:38I don't know.

07:41I don't know.
07:47I don't know.
08:11I don't know.
08:15I don't know.
08:17I don't know.
08:18I don't know.
08:39I don't know.
08:51I don't know.
08:52I'd like to say Alice,
08:53now that she'llâŠ
08:54We're going to get out of here.
09:11We have a meeting with the prosecutor.
09:15We need to prepare for the trial.
09:21How are you?
09:26Nervous?
09:29Scared shitless?
09:35How about you?
09:38Don't tell me you're fine, Lucas.
09:41If you're in trouble until you don't know anything,
09:45you're not okay.
09:52I can hear you.
09:57I'm still waiting for everything.
10:00I'm calling you for the night.
10:03I'm still waiting for you.
10:05I'm still waiting for you.
10:06With Erica.
10:07He's the one who's seen me and the one who's been here in my hotel.
10:17I'm still waiting for you.
10:18You know that if you need to talk to me, I'm only here, right?
10:26But...
10:28I don't know what you're thinking.
10:30What?
10:34It's not like that to me.
10:37Talking with you means...
10:40I was going to talk to you.
10:43I was going to ask you.
10:44And honestly, Lucas,
10:45in all of the people,
10:47I'm just going to understand my truth.
10:55I feel so lost, Lucas.
11:00I'm trying so hard to be strong.
11:04But I feel like I'm in the middle of a bitch,
11:07and I'm dying, and I can't breathe anymore.
11:12And it's been like that for a while.
11:15Until you came along.
11:19And for the first time,
11:23I feel like I'm in the middle of a bitch.
11:35I need Lucas.
11:40I'm in the middle of a bitch.
11:55I feel like I told you, Mel.
11:58Kung kailangan mo ng tulungan dito,
12:01kung magsabi ka lang.
12:06Masayang-masaya ako na kanilalaban ko na yung sarili mo.
12:13Pindahanan ko rin yan sa tatay ko kaya alam ko kung gaano'ng kahirap.
12:17At hanggang ngayon,
12:20iisip ko pa rin na
12:25sana may chance si Nanay
12:28na makalaya at lumabad kagaya mo.
12:40Mahalaya ka rin kay Antun.
12:44Malalampasan mo doon.
12:47At nandito ako pa kailangan mo ng tulung.
12:50Yes.
12:59Ba, nasa din yung chinelas ko?
13:02Ga.
13:03Lakitan mo ba yung salamin ko?
13:05Ba, m Angelang.
13:08Ayong...
13:10tungkod ko.
13:15Ay coisa kilometers epilashïżœ umukïżœus.
13:19Ayong sab Deb Coleman,
13:21Mr. Edward, the delivery of donations and healing masks at Santa Fe, we're going to take care of it.
13:27We're going to rent the van first.
13:30What are you doing?
13:32Why?
13:33Hey, you're going to pay for that.
13:35My van is here.
13:38I can't believe it.
13:43We're going to remember you, Christina, when it happened.
13:47What happened?
13:48We don't want to take care of you.
13:51It's okay.
13:52You're the leader of the church.
13:54Then, you're still going to send the delivery.
13:58That's not me.
14:00I really want to do it.
14:03I really want to do it.
14:05I'm going to read it.
14:06I'm going to read it.
14:08I'm just going to say thank you for me.
14:13I'm going to read it that I'm just going to read it.
14:16Even if we're going to read it.
14:17Because we'll know it is what we're going to do.
14:23You're really going to read it, Kuya Edward.
14:26You're only going to be a saint.
14:29You're going to do it.
14:32I'm going to let you go.
14:32Oh, ha?
14:34Berendo muna kayo.
14:36Sige po, salamat po.
14:37Kain ko.
14:38Pakabusog kayo, ha?
14:57What's up, Eric?
14:58Okay, sir.
15:00Ang gandang umaga, sir.
15:01Ang gandang umaga din hulo.
15:03Ingat po kayo.
15:04Ingat po.
15:37All right, ladies.
15:39Basa sa mga sinambit niyo, we've got a buffet of criminal charges.
15:43And si Anton?
15:45He will be served a full-course meal of accountability.
15:49Mrs. Montenegro, as the wife, you have grounds for battery, assault, injury, psychological abuse, the Anti-Violence Against Women and
15:59Their Children Act, or VAUCIE?
16:02Sorry.
16:03That acronym.
16:04It's better than G&G.
16:08Attorney Melendez, I wouldn't have had the privilege of meeting such a fierce lawyer kung natuloy ang ka ni Anton
16:15sa pananakal niya.
16:16And that asshole struck you with a pipe.
16:22Now, anong kaso ang ipa-file natin sa kanya and what is your justification?
16:29Attempted homicide.
16:31Merong intent to kill.
16:33The pipe struck to the head and the choking kigling show intent.
16:39He missed the kill, but we won't.
16:44Mrs. Mora.
16:46Ah, ganun na rin po?
16:48Kasi pareho naman kaming muntik na malintikan dun eh.
16:51Well, you have defensive wounds.
16:54No, no, no, ah!
16:57Mouth concussion, sinaktang ka niya, yes, but he didn't intend to kill you.
17:02So, yours is less serious physical injuries.
17:07Ah, ganun.
17:11What about me?
17:18Of course, we will push for dismissal.
17:22Pero dapat, handa tayong lumaban.
17:25Their biggest mistake?
17:27Ang ginawa sayo ni Alice.
17:31Attorney.
17:32Malakas bang chance natin?
17:34We will file a hyper-aggressive counter-charge for attempted homicide against Alice Miller.
17:39The use of a hard object, a glass bottle,
17:43struck against the head, which is a vital part of the body,
17:47suggests intent to kill or seriously wound.
17:50We will argue that this was not mere self-defense,
17:53but an unlawful, calculated, and disproportionate act of violence.
17:57This puts their main rescuer in immediate legal jeopardy for a non-vailable offense.
18:03It will fracture their little group.
18:08Makakasuhan ba ako ni Anton?
18:15You are not the criminal, darling.
18:19You are the plot twist.
18:22At ginawa mo kung anong dapat gawin ng isang babae kapag sinubok ng halimaw.
18:28Lumaban.
18:28Classic self-defense under Article 11.
18:32No liability.
18:33But your testimony?
18:35It's our secret weapon.
18:39Attorney Melendez,
18:41with the multiple charges and the sheer volume of evidence,
18:44what is your take on the most effective way to prosecute the cases?
18:50We file separate cases for each of us.
18:52Attempted homicide for me,
18:54less serious physical injuries for Beth,
18:56and no charges for Alice,
18:59because it was clearly an act of self-defense.
19:02But we moved to consolidate them in one trial.
19:05Meaning?
19:06Meaning hiwa-hiwalay na accounts of crime for Anton.
19:10Pero iisang trial,
19:11iisang judge,
19:12at iisang set of witnesses and evidence.
19:14Iisang demonyo,
19:16multiple crimes.
19:17Mas efficient,
19:18mas powerful.
19:19That thinks Anton not just a one-time jerk,
19:22but a repeat offender with a signature style.
19:25And judges love patterns,
19:27and they hate predators who think they're clever.
19:31Next,
19:32we erase the rescue narrative.
19:34At papalitan natin ng premeditated ambush and assault.
19:40How?
19:41Your wife deliberately lured you to the isolated area of the coffee shop,
19:46using a phone call.
19:48Dahil alam niyang malapit lang mga kadigan niya,
19:51sinet-up ka.
19:51We will file counter charges for less serious or serious physical injuries against Eric and Beth.
19:58This forces all the women to face jail time.
20:02Not just be complainants.
20:05Ang ipapalabas natin,
20:07yung bayanihan ng kababaihan na pinapalabas nila was actually a conspiracy para saktan ka.
20:13What about the coffee shop owner?
20:15Di ba witness siya?
20:16Ang nakita lang niya ay ang aftermath.
20:18She did not witness the whole thing.
20:20Not even their CCTV.
20:22Dahil in the first place,
20:23wala sila nun.
20:26Now for the kicker,
20:28Mrs. Montenegro.
20:29Your vowsy case,
20:30he walay.
20:31It will fall under the family court.
20:33Different playground,
20:34different rules,
20:35different prosecutor.
20:37Mas malalim ang tingin.
20:38Physical,
20:39emotional,
20:40psychological,
20:41financial,
20:41economic.
20:42The whole pattern of abuse.
20:45So we can paint the whole ugly picture.
20:48And speaking of family court,
20:49that is where you will file for protective order.
20:52Attorney Melendez,
20:54why is it crucial to get a temporary protection order?
20:59And what immediate win does it give your friend?
21:02The TPO is a non-negotiable legal mandate for immediate safety.
21:06The biggest win here is the exclusive possession of the conjugal hope.
21:10And family court can immediately issue a protective order within 24 hours without even talking to Anton.
21:16She's right, Mel.
21:18Legal na mapapalayas ng TPO si Anton sa bahay na
21:21regardless na kung sino may-ari.
21:23Dahil under the law,
21:24your safety is the priority.
21:26It stops any form of financial violence or economic abuse.
21:30The TPO can restrict Anton from accessing his bank accounts,
21:34especially yung common bank accounts nyo or yung properties nyo,
21:37para hindi nyo madrain ang joint accounts nyo at ibenta yung assets.
21:40Now,
21:41on to the strategy.
21:43You have two choices on how to proceed with the prosecution.
21:46One,
21:47sabay-sabay nating ipoprosecute ang lahat ng cases,
21:51double-core drama.
21:52Or two,
21:53win the collective criminal cases first
21:56and use that win
21:58para matalo si Anton sa vowsy case mo.
22:08What do you think?
22:10Well,
22:11nakadepende yan sa kung anong kaya mo i-handle, Mel.
22:14Pero personally,
22:15malinas ng one-two punch ng option two.
22:18Pero dahil sa
22:19bagal ng takbo ng hostisya dito sa badsang to,
22:23Right.
22:24Sabay-sabay naaandar yung mga kaso.
22:27And I want attorney Erica
22:28to defend me.
22:30Look at that.
22:32Instant dream team.
22:35Unfortunately, ladies,
22:37I am the lead public prosecutor.
22:40But,
22:41with your consent,
22:42she
22:43can be your private prosecutor
22:45under my supervision.
22:46Like a
22:48co-counsel?
22:50I'm the general.
22:52She's the field commander.
22:54She will help you
22:55with everything you need.
22:56Getting affidavit,
22:57evidence,
22:58prepping for testimony,
23:00everything you need
23:01before the battle begins.
23:04Now,
23:05let's make sure
23:07Anton Montenegar regrets
23:10that he touched
23:11any of you.
23:13Finally,
23:14the PR strategy.
23:16We control
23:17the narrative.
23:19Anton,
23:20you are the
23:20betrayed husband.
23:21We will secure
23:23a psychological
23:23evaluation
23:24and strategically
23:25leak portions of it
23:26claiming
23:27that you suffer
23:28from anxiety,
23:29depression,
23:31or PTSD.
23:32Because of your husband's
23:33the same thing,
23:34they did attack you.
23:36We will argue
23:37your rage
23:38was a result
23:39of a powerful
23:40and blinding
23:41fit of passion,
23:42making the
23:43Val C. case
23:44look like a distraction
23:45from Mel's own
23:46betrayal.
23:49I like that.
23:56importanteng ipagpatuli
23:57mo lang
23:57ang ginagawa mo.
23:59Keep talking
23:59about your heartbreak
24:00and the affair,
24:01but do not say
24:03anything aggressive
24:04against the women.
24:05We must subtly
24:07paint Mel,
24:08Erica,
24:09and Beth
24:09as a powerful
24:10and vicious
24:11group of women
24:12who are ganging up
24:13against a good man.
24:16If we control
24:17the narrative,
24:18we show the court,
24:19there is
24:20reasonable doubt.
24:25That's easy.
24:59I'm sure you're
25:00nagtataka ka
25:00how he and I
25:01came to have an affair.
25:03Hindi ko siya
25:03pagmamayari na ito.
25:05Tapos naman na yun.
25:06But I don't want
25:06it to be over.
25:08Sigurado ka ba
25:08na okay lang tayong
25:09mag-alaga sa
25:10pita-pita mo?
25:11Ay, mga polis
25:12naman sa labas.
25:13Sama na lang niya,
25:13no?
25:14Kung babalik pa siya
25:14dito, diba?
25:20I don't want
25:20to be over.
25:20I don't want
25:20I don't want
25:21I don't want
25:21to be over.
25:21I don't want
25:22to be over.
25:22I don't want
