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.
01:01We are going to take care of ourselves.
01:03if we're going to go on to the next round.
01:16Thanks, Michael.

08:51Ah, I'm going to tell Alice that we're already leaving.
09:20How are you?
09:23How are you?
09:25Nervous?
09:29Scared shitless?
09:34How about you?
09:37Don't tell me you're fine, Lucas.
09:41If you don't know anything, you're not okay.
09:52I've heard you.
09:57I'm still waiting for you.
10:00I'm calling you for the night.
10:04Maybe I'm going to die.
10:05With Erica.
10:07He's the only person I've seen.
10:11He's the only person I've seen in my hotel.
10:17You know that if you need to talk to me, I'm only here, right?
10:26But...
10:28I don't want to go back to what you think.
10:31What?
10:31It...
10:34It's not like that to me.
10:38Talking with you means...
10:40I'm also going to talk to you.
10:43And honestly, Lucas,
10:45for all of us,
10:47you're only going to understand the truth of my life.
10:55I feel so lost, Lucas.
11:00I'm trying so hard to be strong.
11:04But...
11:05I feel like I'm on the side of a bitch,
11:07and I'm dying.
11:08And any time I can fall.
11:12And it's been like that for a while.
11:15Until you came along.
11:20And for the first time,
11:24I feel like there's no need for me.
11:35I need you now, Lucas.
11:41I need you.
11:55Like I told you, Mel.
11:59If you need help, I'll just tell you.
12:06I'm so happy that you're in love with your own self.
12:10I'm so happy with my dad,
12:15so I know how hard it is.
12:18Until now,
12:20I still think
12:24that I hope you'll have a chance,
12:26that you'll be able to fight and fight like that.
12:40I'm so happy with you.
12:43But I'm so happy with you.
12:47I'm so happy with you.
12:49I'll have to have the help.
12:51You'll be able to fight.
12:52I'm so happy with you,
13:01and I'm so happy with you.
13:02You'll be able to fight like that.
13:04I'm so happy with you.
13:05Eh, I'm just going to go there.
13:08Eh, yung...
13:10...tongkod ko.
13:21Mr. Edward,
13:23the donation and healing mass at Santa Fe,
13:26we're going to take care of you first.
13:28We're going to rent the van first.
13:30What are you doing?
13:32Why?
13:33Eh, you're going to rent the van.
13:37I'm going to rent the van.
13:38I'm going to rent the van.
13:40I'm going to rent the van.
13:43I'm just going to rent the van first.
13:45Christina,
13:46after that happened,
13:48we're going to have a lot to think about it.
13:51It's okay.
13:52You're the leader of the church,
13:54and you're still going to rent the delivery.
13:58I'm not going to rent the van.
14:00I'm going to rent the van.
14:03I'm going to rent a lot,
14:06and I'm going to rent,
14:06and I'm going to rent the van.
14:07And that's how we're going,
14:07Christina is going to rent.
14:09I'm calling the Mass.
14:12I'm going to rent a lot
14:13for my loan.
14:17And that's right,
14:19and that's how we're going to rent.
14:23That's why, Kuya Edward.
14:25Just a little bit, you can be a saint.
14:29You too.
14:31You can only do what I can do.
14:34Let's go.
14:35Okay.
14:37Let's eat.
14:57Let's go.
14:58Let's go.
14:59Let's go.
15:00It's a nice day, sir.
15:01It's a nice day, Nulo.
15:03I'm sorry.
15:03I'm sorry.
15:22Let's go.
15:26Let's go.
15:27Let's go.
15:28Let's go.
15:30Let's go.
15:32Let's go.
15:35Let's go.
15:36All right, ladies.
15:40We've got a buffet of criminal charges.
15:44And Anton?
15:46He will be served a full course meal of accountability.
15:50Mrs. Montenegro, as the wife, you have grounds for battery, assault, injury, psychological abuse, the Anti-Violence Against Women and
15:59Their Children Act, or VAUSI.
16:02Sorry.
16:02That acronym.
16:04It's better than G&G.
16:08Attorney Melendez,
16:10I wouldn't have had the privilege of meeting such a fierce lawyer kung natuluyang ka ni Anton sa pananakal niya.
16:16And that asshole struck you with a pipe.
16:19Ah!
16:20Ah!
16:21Ah!
16:22Now,
16:23anong kaso ang ipafile 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 kailin show intent.
16:36Ah!
16:36Ah!
16:38Ah!
16:39He missed the kill.
16:42But we won't.
16:44Mrs. Mora.
16:46Ah, ganun na rin po?
16:48Kasi pareo naman kami muntik na malintikan dun eh.
16:51Well, you have defensive wounds.
16:54Ah!
16:58Ah!
17:04Ah!
17:06Ah!
17:07Ah!
17:10Ah!
17:12Ah!
17:27Ah!
17:32Ah!
17:33Ah!
17:33Ah!
17:33Ah!
17:40Ah!
17:49Ah!
18:11Ah!
18:11Ah!
18:15Ah!
18:21Ah!
18:35Ah!
18:39Ah!
18:39Attorney Melendez,
18:40with the multiple charges and the sheer volume of evidence, what is your take on the most effective way to
18:47prosecute the cases?
18:50We filed separate cases for each of us.
18:52Attempted homicide for me, less serious physical injuries for Beth, and no charges for Alice, because it was clearly an
19:00act of self-defense.
19:02But we moved to consolidate them in one trial.
19:05Meaning?
19:06Meaning, hiwahiwalay na counts of crime for ungod.
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.
19:32Next, 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.
19:47Dahil 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 big 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.
20:20Not 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.
20:33Different playground.
20:34Different rules.
20:35Different 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?
20:59And 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 the family court can immediately issue a protective order within 24 hours without even talking to Anton.
21:17She'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 ma-drain ang joint accounts niyo at i-benta yung assets.
21:41Now, on to the strategy.
21:43You have two choices on how to proceed with the prosecution.
21:47One, sabay-sabay natin 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 men.
22:14Pero personally, malinas ng one-two punch ng option two.
22:17Pero dahil sa bagal ng takbo ng hostisya dito sa badsang to.
22:23Right.
22:24Sabay-sabay naaanda rin yung mga kaso.
22:27And I want attorney Erica to defend me.
22:30Look at that. Instant 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.
22:46Like a co-counsel?
22:50I'm the general. She's the field commander.
22:54She will help you with everything you need.
22:56Getting affidavit, evidence, prepping for testimony.
23:00Everything you need before the battle begins.
23:05Now, let's make sure Anton Montenegro regrets that he touched any of you.
23:13Finally, the PR strategy. We control the narrative.
23:18Anton, you are the betrayed husband.
23:21We will secure a psychological evaluation.
23:24And strategically leak portions of it.
23:27Claiming na nagsasuffer ka ng anxiety, depression, or PTSD.
23:32Dahil sa pangangaliwan ng asawa mo,
23:34and yung ginawa nilang pag-atake sayo.
23:36We will argue your rage was a result of a powerful and blinding fit of passion.
23:42Making the Val 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, Erica, and Beth as a powerful and vicious group of women who are ganging up
24:13against a good man.
24:15If we control the narrative, we show the court there is reasonable doubt.
24:25That's easy.
24:27That's easy.
24:49That's easy.
24:52That's easy.
24:53It is all about it.
24:54I'm afraid I'm going to be the reason why you're going to be my brother.
24:59I'm sure you're going to be the same as he and I came to have an affair.
25:03I'm not going to be able to do that.
25:04It's over again.
25:05But I don't want it to be over.
25:08Are you sure you're okay to be able to get out of the hospital?
25:11There are police in the middle.
25:13Where are they going to go if they're back here?
