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.
01:00When I want a visit...
01:06I can do so-
01:07I can do so-
01:26If I lay this way,
01:28You linter seeing black Jeans!
01:28I don't know.
02:01I don't know.
02:31I don't know.
03:21I don't know.

08:39I don't know.
08:51I don't know.
08:51I'm going to tell Alice.
08:53We're out there.
09:11We have a meeting with the prosecutor.
09:15We need to prepare for the trial.
09:20How are you?
09:26Nervous?
09:29Scared shitless?
09:34How about you?
09:38Don't tell me you're fine, Lucas.
09:41Kung naglalasing ka hanggang wala ka nang maalala, you're not okay.
09:53Narinig ko kayo.
09:58Pinipilit ko paring harapin lahat.
10:01Inatawagan kita kagabi.
10:04Baka mag-isak ko na ako nun.
10:05Kasama si Erica.
10:07Isa lang yung taong unang nakakita sa akin at...
10:11...ang magandang loob na i-hatid ako sa hotel ko.
10:17Alam mo naman na pagkailangan mo nang kausap na dito lang ako, di ba?
10:26Pero...
10:26Ayaw ko makalagdag sa iniisip mo.
10:31What?
10:34It's not like that to me.
10:38Talking with you means...
10:40...may nakakausap din ako.
10:44Honestly, Lucas...
10:45...sa lahat ng tao...
10:47...ikaw lang ako nakakauntindi sa totoong pinigladaanan ko.
10:55I feel so lost, Lucas.
11:00I'm trying so hard to be strong.
11:04Pero...
11:05...para akong nasa gilid ng isang bangin nakatayo at...
11:08...anytime pwede akong mahulog.
11:11And it's been like that for a while.
11:15Until you came along.
11:20And for the first time...
11:24...naramdaman ko na may makakapitan ako.
11:35Tinakailangan ko ngayon, Lucas.
11:40Makakapitan.
11:55Like I told you, Meryl.
11:58Kung kailangan mo ng tulungan dito, kung magsabi ka lang.
12:06Masayang masaya ako na pinilalaban ko na yung sarili mo.
12:13Pindahanan ko rin yan sa tatay ko kaya alam ko kung ganong kahirap.
12:18At hanggang ngayon...
12:20...niisip ko pa rin na...
12:25...sana may chance si nanay...
12:30...makalaya at lumabad kagaya mo.
12:40...makalaya ka rin kay Antun.
12:44Malalampasan mo doon.
12:47At nandito ako pa kailangan mo ng tulong.
13:00At nandito ako pa kailangan mo ng tulong.
13:02Ga, nakita mo ba yung salamin ko?
13:05Eh, baka nandyan lang.
13:09Ayun...
13:10...tungkod ko.
13:21Kuya Edward, yung pag-deliver ng donations at healing mass sa Santa Fe, kami na munang bahala.
13:28Magre-rent na lang po muna kami ng van.
13:30Ano ba kayo?
13:32Bakit naman?
13:34Eh, gagastos pa kayo. Nandyan naman yung van ko.
13:37Masa pa...
13:39...kaya ko naman eh.
13:43Nag-alala po kasi kami sa inyo ni Christina, pagkatapos nung nangyari.
13:48Ayaw na po namin dagdaga ng isipin ninyo.
13:51Nakakaya nga po eh.
13:52Kayo yung church leader.
13:55Tapos...
13:55...kayo pa po nagkasikasulat ng delivery sa itong ano-ano.
13:59Wala naman sa akin yun.
14:00Tsaka...
14:01...gusto ko naman yung ginagawa ko.
14:03Tsaka ano...
14:05...panata ako naman talaga ito buhay pa yung mga magulang ni Christina.
14:08Tinutuloy ko lang bilang pasasalamat sa pagtanggap nila sa akin.
14:12Tsaka isa pa...
14:13...may ba dapat talaga namang tinutuloy natin yung mga panata natin kahit na may mga pagsubok?
14:18Kasi...
14:19...doon natin malalaman kung...
14:21...gaano tayo katatag.
14:23Yung baka talaga, Kuya Edward?
14:25Kunti na lang po pwede ka nung maging santo.
14:29Kayo naman.
14:31Ginagawa pa lang yung makakaya ko.
14:33Ha?
14:34Birendo muna kayo.
14:36Sige po. Sige po.
14:37Kain ko.
14:38Pakabusog kayo.
14:57Sige po sa ibang area?
14:58Oo, sir.
15:00Magandang umaga, sir.
15:01Magandang umaga din hulo.
15:03Ingat po kayo.
15:04Ingat din po.
15:04P..?
15:27Osvaldo papparat.
15:29Ano..
15:29Sepak.
15:33Purt powiedzieć,
15:37All right, ladies.
15:40We've got a buffet of criminal charges.
15:44And Anton, he will be served a full-course meal of accountability.
15:50Mrs. Montenegro, as the wife, you have grounds for battery, assault, injury, psychological abuse,
15:57the Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act, or VAUCIE.
16:02Sorry, that acronym.
16:04It's better than G&G.
16:08Attorney Melendez, I wouldn't have had the privilege of meeting such a fierce lawyer
16:14kung natuloyan ka ni Anton sa pananakal niya.
16:16And that asshole struck you with a pipe.
16:22Now, anong kaso ang ipafile natin sa kanya and what is your justification?
16:29Attempted homicide.
16:31Merong intent to kill.
16:32Well, the pipe struck to the head and the choking clearly show intent.
16:38Exactly.
16:39He missed the kill.
16:42But we won't.
16:44Mrs. Mora.
16:46Ah, ganun na rin po?
16:47Kasi pareo naman kaming muntik na malintikan dun eh.
16:51Well, you have defensive wounds.
16:54No, no, no, ah!
16:57Mild concussion.
16:59Sinaktang ka niya, yes.
17:00But he didn't intend to kill you.
17:03So, yours is less serious physical injuries.
17:06Ah, ganun.
17:07M-what about me?
17:18Of course, we will push for dismissal.
17:22Pero dapat, handa tayong lumaban.
17:25Their biggest mistake?
17:27Ang ginawa sa'yo ni Alice.
17:31Attorney, malaks 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, struck against the head, which is a vital part of the
17:46body, suggests intent to kill or seriously wound.
17:50We will argue that this was not mere self-defense, but an unlawful, calculated, and disproportionate act of violence.
17:58This puts their main rescuer in immediate legal jeopardy for a non-vailable offense.
18:04It will fracture their little group.
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.
18:27Lumaban.
18:29Classic self-defense under Article 11.
18:32No liability.
18:32But your testimony is our secret weapon.
18:39Attorney Melendez, with the multiple charges and the sheer volume of evidence, what is your take on the most effective
18:46way to prosecute the cases?
18:50We file separate cases for each of us.
18:52Attempted homicide for me, less serious physical injuries for Beth, and 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 counts of crime for Anton.
19:10Pero iisang trial, iisang judge, at iisang set of witnesses and evidence.
19:14Iisang demonyo, multiple crimes.
19:17Mas efficient, mas powerful.
19:19That thinks Anton not just a one-time jerk, but a repeat offender with a signature style.
19:25And judges love patterns.
19:27And they hate predators who think they're clever.
19:31Next, we erase the rescue narrative.
19:35At papalitan natin ng premeditated ambush and assault.
19:40How?
19:41Your wife deliberately lured you to the isolated area of the coffee shop, using a phone call.
19:48Dahil alam niyang malapit lang mga kadigan niya, sinet-up ka.
19:52We will file counter charges for less serious or serious physical injuries against Eric and Beth.
19:59This forces all the women to face jail time, not just be complainants.
20:04Ang ipapalabas natin, yung 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.
20:21Not even their CCTV.
20:22Dahil in the first place, wala sila nun.
20:26Now for the kicker, Mrs. Montenegro.
20:29Your vowsy case, hiwalay.
20:31It will fall under the family court.
20:32Different playground, different rules, different prosecutor.
20:37Mas malalim ang tingin.
20:38Physical, emotional, psychological, financial, economic.
20:42The whole pattern of abuse.
20:45So we can paint the whole ugly picture.
20:48And speaking of family court, that is where you will file for protective order.
20:53Attorney Melendez, why is it crucial to get a temporary protection order?
20:58And 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 niya regardless na kung sino may-ari.
21:23Dahil under the law, your 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 niyo or yung properties niyo,
21:37para hindi niya madrain ang joint accounts niyo at i-benta yung assets.
21:40Now, on to the strategy.
21:43You have two choices on how to proceed with the prosecution.
21:47One, sabay-sabay nating ipoprosecute ang lahat ng cases, double-core drama.
21:52Or two, win the collective criminal cases first and use that win para matalo si Anton sa vowsy case mo.
22:08What do you think?
22:10Well, nakadepende yan sa kung anong kaya mo i-handle, Mel.
22:14Pero personally, malinas ng one-two punch ng option two.
22:18Pero dahil sa bagal ng takbo ng hostisya dito sa badsang to...
22:23Right.
22:24Sabay-sabay naaandar yung mga kaso.
22:27And I want attorney Erica to defend me.
22:31Look at that.
22:32Instant dream team.
22:35Unfortunately, ladies, I am the lead public prosecutor.
22:40But with your consent, she can be your private prosecutor under my supervision.
22:47Like a co-counsel?
22:50I'm the general.
22:52She's the field commander.
22:53She will help you with everything you need.
22:56Getting affidavit, evidence, prepping for testimony.
22:59Everything you need before the battle begins.
23:04Now, let's make sure Anton Montenegar regrets that he touched any of you.
23:13Finally, the PR strategy.
23:16We control the narrative.
23:19Anton, you are the betrayed husband.
23:21We will secure a psychological evaluation and strategically leak portions of it.
23:27Claiming na nagsasuffer ka ng anxiety, depression, or PTSD.
23:32Dahil sa pangangaliwan ng asawa mo,
23:34E'yong ginawa nilang pag-atake sa'yo.
23:37We will argue, your rage was a result of a powerful and blinding fit of passion.
23:42Making the Vau C case look like a distraction from Mel's own betrayal.
23:49I like that.
23:56Importante ang ipagpatuli mo lang ang ginagawa mo.
23:59Keep talking about your heartbreak and the affair,
24:01but do not say anything aggressive against the women.
24:05We must subtly paint Mel, Erika, and Beth
24:09as a powerful and vicious group of women
24:12who are ganging up against a good man.
24:16If we control the narrative,
24:18we show the court there is reasonable doubt.
24:26That's easy.
24:35That's easy.
24:36Edou, Erika,
24:51wala nang nagpakita si Edou.
24:53Ang dami nang nagbago.
24:54Mas natatakot ako, Nay,
24:56na siya yung maging reason ko.
24:57Bakit kayo mag-iawalay ni tatay?
24:59I'm sure nagtataka ka
25:00how he and I came to have an affair.
25:03Hindi ko siya pagmamayari na ito.
25:05Tapos naman na yun.
25:06But I don't want it to be over.
25:08Sigurado ka ba na okay lang sa'yo mag-alaga sa titang 15 na mo?
25:11Ay, mga polis naman sa labas.
25:13Sama na lang niya, no?
25:14Kung babalik pa siya dito, diba?
