Original subtitles

This is life. Filled with moments...

of joyful noise...

of spirited dancing...

of marching to a different beat.

Bes, catch!

Go Team Mustache!

But there are moments when life slows down.

In those moments, the world disappears.

The music fades.

Everything stops.

Like this moment my dad told me about.

He said, you'll know you're in love...

when your world begins to move in slow motion.

That's what happened to him the first time he saw my mom.

That's when he knew she will be the woman he will marry.

Time stopped and everything else disappeared.

The only one he saw was the queen of his heart.

They lost the championship that year.

But it doesn't matter, my mom's heart was the bigger prize.

Everything also went in slow motion when he first saw me.

It was love at first sight!

You look like Mommy!

So pretty!

My mom bought me this.

Great things happen to my dad when the world goes in "slow mo".

I can't say the same for me. I feel scared and anxious.

Princess Patricia...

Stay here, okay?

I'll just buy something.

The first time that I saw things in slow motion...

was the last time I saw my mother.

Mommy!

Because I got scared, I followed her.

Mommy!

But my steps seemed to slow down too.

Mommy!

Sorry!

Ugly girl!

Like what I did?

They're gone! You can smile now.

Like this!

I lost my mother but I found a best friend.

Catch!

With Ivan, life moved quickly.

What's this for?

I guess that's what happens when you're happy.

For basketball!

Yuck!

This stinks!

Dude, this smells like crap!

- Ouch! Hey! Gimme that! -Stinks?

- Yours smells worse than crap! - Shut up! The nerve!

Just give it back!

Gross!

Edward! Talk to me!

Don't make a scene! The neighbors!

Edward, don't--

Edward!

That wasn't a good day.

Things went in "slow mo" again...

when I saw my best friend cry for the first time.

Best friend?

So when I saw Ivan in slow motion,

I got nervous.

Nothing good ever happens when I see life in slow motion.

But that time, I felt different.

The world stopped.

- All I could see was him... - Patchot!

My best friend.

Patchot!

Are you okay?

I love you.

Huh?

What did she say?!

I love you, Ivan.

- I love you, Ivan. - There.

That is my slow motion moment.

The moment I wish I could fast forward and forget.

Like a bad dream!

Patchot! What's wrong with you?

Come on!

What were you thinking?

Stupid! Crazy!

Bad trip! Bad trip!

It can't be Patchot! It can't be!

Dad! Partner!

Move it! We'll be late!

It can't be! It can't be late!

No! Not now, I have two minutes left!

We're going to be late!

Dad Partner! There you are!

I'm done! I finished in exactly 5 minutes.

Okay, let's go.

Why do you wear it that way? This looks better on you.

No, Dad! This is better!

No! Like this! Like that!

- Please? - Okay, let's go.

- Your Uncle Conde is waiting. - Let's go!

Jump! Higher!

It's unfair. You're tall!

No, no, no!

It will be good for your business to cater the hair and makeup competition.

It will be a waste if you turn it down.

You guys make the--

Best roasted pig.

Look, I'm not interested in that frivolous contest.

King... That's big!

Huge!

What's big?

The money we will earn from that event.

Ma'am? The event is in May, right?

Yes, in May.

I'll take care of this. I'll convince my brother.

Alright.

- I'll take care of it. - Consider it a "yes!"

- It's auntie! - Aunt?

Is that Aunt Queenie?

Hi Auntie!

Patchot! You're a lady now!

Lady? You mean a gentleman!

- Look at her armpit hair! - Stop it!

Auntie! ls Angel there?

She's out! But she's excited to go there to Cebu!

- Tita, don't forget my shoes! - No! You're not getting one!

Where is Bibap?

Hold on. Here he is.

Auntie, don't forget my chocolate please?

What hairstyle do you want?

The kind that will make me more beautiful!

You want to show off?

Sweetie, don't cry...

Remember, for every tear drop, you get a wrinkle!

But don't you worry, we are always "hair" for you.

Tell me, who's the boy who made you cry?

Your son!

Ivan told me that he will stop courting me.

He had my hopes up!

Well...

I'll give you a free haircut.

Jolina!

- Yes? - Give her a calming back massage!

Yes!

I'll be quick. I'll be back!

Where are you going? You'll forget to pay again!

- Girl! - Yes?

It's official. Ivan and Jen are done!

Were they ever a couple?

You know what I mean!

This is your chance! Your second chance!

So? Are you ready? Yes, you are!

Gordo, I'll order a roast pig!

- Roast pig for everyone! - Wow, someone's rich!

You still haven't paid for your order last Christmas!

Hey, what now?

Aren't you excited? Even a little bit?

Should I be?

Should I celebrate every time Ivan leaves another girl?

But of course! You love him!

What?

You're talking about love?

Uncle, Patchot's in love! She's loves someone!

- No! I'm not! -She's not!

What's that?

No, what I mean is I love my hot oiled hair...

so I shouldn't be here. Let's go! Hurry!

Where are you going?

I'll be back Uncle!

How many times do I have to tell you that...

the hit on the head was really bad.

So bad all sorts of nonsense came out of my mouth!

What about the "I love you" that you said?

Yuck! Gross! No way!

Disgusting!

That's nothing?

Are you sure it's nothing?

Yes, nothing!

Me? Have feelings for you?

I feel nothing for you!

Nothing!

There's nothing between Jen and I.

What happened to...

Jen being the perfect catch?

Yeah.

- You said, "She's the perfect catch." - Hold on, dude!

Yes, she may be a perfect catch.

But she's so hard to get!

I've lost interest already. And she's not that pretty.

What a waste of time.

Go for Patchot instead! She's not hard to get.

You know how she feels about you!

I agree!

Remember this?

"Ivan, I love you..."

That was last January, dude!

It's already summer. Besides, Patchot and I put that behind us.

She told me that I'm not her type.

Dude, maybe she's just "ID"?

No, she's not "In Denial"

And we talked about it.

I confronted her.

And I told her...

Patchot, we can talk about your feelings.

You want?

Yeah. You know, I was thinking--

Ivan, stop it! Are you okay?

Me? I can never like someone like you!

Even I was surprised with what I said.

It's so funny, right?

Right?

You even laughed at me.

Patchot, I laughed only because--

It's weird!

We're like brother and sister!

And...

no offense to you Ivan but you're really not my type.

Okay. Maybe all the girls are crazy about you.

But I'm not one of them.

I still don't know what they see in you.

Why? What do you see in me?

What do I see?

There! Those!

Your super thin legs! Look!

My legs may be thin but they're fast!

Dude, her knees!

Her knees are as black as the charcoal they use to roast the pigs!

And your eyes! You have huge eyebags.

It looks like you're traveling everyday with them!

She's talking about these eyes?

These eyes? Dude!

One look at a girl and she'll fall for me. They're chick magnets!

Oh my God! Oh my God, Ivan!

But her eyes look like bees!

Black bees!

And...

the way you smell!

Gosh! It's even stronger than my grandpa's cologne!

Better to be drenched in cologne...

than to smell like pig fat.

I put on a lot of cologne for her.

So that she can smell good when she's with me.

And your hair! Your awful K-pop hair...

that you think the girls go wild for.

"I want picture!" "You're so cute!"

But the girls do go wild for my hair.

But Patchot? It's her hair that's wild.

Dude, stop it!

That was intense!

You just traded insults!

Are you sure that you don't have feelings for him?

Sure! None!

So? There's nothing there?

Sure.

No, nothing.

If there's nothing, then fine!

So she's in the friend zone.

Exactly!

You know,

some girls you make your girl friend...

And girl that are just friends?

Yes, exactly!

Okay!

Friends?

No.

Best.

Best friends.

Catch?

Catch.

Best actress in a slow motion picture!

You're the box-office denial queen!

That's it!

Isn't it obvious that I'm not Ivan's type?

So please? Enough of that!

Auntie Baby?

Oh, she already set the table.

Auntie, your order is here.

Auntie?

Auntie?

Hi Auntie?

Good morning!

You already prepared the table with out waiting for me.

Auntie, let's go outside and get you some fresh air.

Okay?

Auntie, I'm sorry if I was late today.

Time flies so fast right, Auntie?

It's already Uncle Emil's second death anniversary.

If he was here, I'm sure he will like the food.

Especially the roast pig!

Dad and I made this very special.

If only...

we could rewind and turn back time.

Right, Auntie?

He used to be just my best friend,

until things moved in slow motion.

But...

to him, I'm just his funny best friend.

A girl that he'll never see any differently.

If only we could hit rewind...

before things got complicated.

What's complicated?

Patchot, what rumor are you telling Aunt Baby?

No, it's nothing.

I was just telling her about you and Jen.

You said you don't want things complicated.

You want it direct to the point, right?

Poor girl, that Jen.

She likes you. She just plays hard to get.

Sorry but I don't like girls that play hard to get.

YOLO! You Only Live Once! Once!

And ESB!

Enjoy the Sand and the Beach.

Do what you want to do!

I don't like... TBKD!

Talking Bullshit, Knowing Diddly.

Right? It's simple! Right, Auntie?

So Patchot, if there's something you wanna know, ask me first.

Hey! I confirmed all my stories!

You can even ask your Mom!

Ask about Jen!

She almost went bald because of you.

Patchot, I think you should have your head shaved.

Why don't you do that?

The bald suits you.

And I don't need to go bald.

I'm not depressed. I'm not like Jen!

Really?

No, I'm not!

Cross your heart hope to die?

I'll only cross my heart! Calm down!

I'm not yet ready to die, okay?

So I see!

You think you look good?

Definitely good-looking!

Wow! Which part?

All of this!

Whoa! The wind is blowing so hard!

Looks like there's a typhoon here!

Yuck, what are you do--

Just give me the money.

We're not going anywhere with this!

Here, you can get it!

Hey!

- Give it! - Go get it! Reach for--

Why?

You have bad breath!

No, I don't! That's Auntie Baby! She hasn't spoken in so long.

Here.

Drop by the parlor later, okay?

Get your mustache waxed!

You've been glued to the mirror. Is something wrong with your face?

I would have been born a boy. This mustache would be okay.

What mustache?

Where? I don't see any.

Here Partner! Look! Oh!

You're right!

Don't worry.

I'll teach you how to trim it so it will grow nicely.

Dad!

But you know Partner...

I love you in spite of your mustache.

I love you in spite of the graying mustache on your forehead!

I love you in spite of the fleas on your forehead's mustache!

Haircut, 100.

Manicure and pedicure, 150.

Hot oil, 250.

100 plus 150. Plus 250 equals 500.

Times 4 equals 2000!

We lose 2000 pesos monthly every time you make a girl cry.

Mom, you don't have to give free services.

Well, if I don't do that, you'll be eating death threats for breakfast.

Please don't be like your womanizing father.

It's a good thing I'm always "hair" for you.

To love you.

And to guide you! And to--

What's all the noise outside?

Madam, it looks like a new parlor.

Parlor? Who's the owner?

I'm so happy for you, Auntie. You finally decided to go out.

You know what, Mom scolded me last night.

I just want to be sure about the girls I date.

They keep saying there should be a "slow mo" moment.

Do you believe it, Auntie?

I know Patchot does.

They say when you meet the love of your life...

everything will move in "slow mo".

How about you, Auntie? You think it's true?

Auntie!

It's true!

The "slow mo" is true!

It's really true!

Hurry! We'll be late. Let's go!

Hey, let's go!

- We'll fetch Angel. - Hold on! Wait!

Surprise!

It's Angel!

- My goodness! - Hi Uncle!

Hi! What happened to your face?

That's makeup!

Where's Patch?

Over there!

Hi Patch!

Hi Angel!

Uncle, this is for you.

Thanks for this!

- It fits! - Sure.

You will have all the chocolates to yourself, okay?

We will not share them with your brother.

Look, this is supposed to be mine. Give it to me.

This is mine!

Patchot, come here. This is for you.

Wow!

You like it?

That is called a dress.

And this is makeup. Girls wear them together!

- Give it to me! - Too bad.

You see, Angel, your cousin Patchot doesn't wear dresses or makeup.

Really, Patch?

Come on. Just try it!

It will look good on you. And we'll be using the same makeup.

Really?

You know what she really likes?

Those! The rubber shoes!

Gordo! Give that to your cousin!

Here. We're the same size anyway. Size 11.

She likes this for playing basketball.

That's why she's dark skinned!

Burned by the sun and roasted by charcoal!

Angel! Your mom told us you're going to Manila...

to visit our other relatives in Paranaque.

Yes, Uncle. But I'll go back right away.

Angel, I'm sorry about my room.

Just tell me if you need anything.

You really like basketball, right?

I do!

Do you play too?

No, its not really my thing.

Is my mustache distracting?

I don't see anything.

I was just looking at your face.

My mom says that you look like your dad.

But I think you look like your mom.

I mean from all the photos I saw, and from when we were kids.

You know what, Patch?

I'm so glad to see you again!

Just like when we were kids, remember?

You always used to go to our house in Manila.

Yes, I remember!

We would always have sleeping contests?

Are you ready?

Game! Let's go!

You look like you're tired.

Go get some rest and then we'll talk again later.

Alright.

- Good mornight Patch! - Good mornight!

I'm at the mall right now.

I really can't sleep. You know, jet lag.

Alright. I'll be back later. Okay?

Okay, bye!

Okay, it's nice. I'll take it.

Sorry, Miss.

I like that shade. It's pretty, right?

It suits you.

Bye.

Auntie, it's a good thing you sent me out to buy make-up!

I saw the girl of my dreams!

We are so "MTB." Meant To Be!

And you know what, Auntie? Everything was in "slow mo"!

I want to see her again.

Alright, Auntie.

I have to go, I've got a basketball game...

and I have to get Patchot.

The girl of your dreams is in the roasting house.

Roasting house?

I don't know why Aunt Baby thinks...

the girl of my dreams is in the roasting house!

What can I find there?

Men and Pigs!

There's a girl there, you know?

Patchot!

Maybe you had a "slow mo" moment with Patchot that you're not telling us about.

Wait, let me think.

Yes, Patchot and I had a "slow mo" moment.

It's like...

all this time, the girl of my dreams was just there.

Dude, her sweet smile is the bomb!

Sir! I'll be back.

- Just stay there! - Where are you going?

You'll forget to pay again!

Look at that.

Maybe she needs to poop!

Let's go back to the subject.

You guys are "KTB."

"KTB?" Knocks to the Bones?

Maybe you mean Death to the Bones!

This girl is different from Patchot. Very different.

He's so different! I had my first "slow mo" with him!

Really?

"Slow mo"?

Well, at first, I didn't believe in that.

But, it does happen! Just like what Mom said!

But it's too bad, cause I think he's gay.

Really?

Confirmed!

- Are you gay? - I mean, confirmed.

Well, I'm not yet sure.

But I really don't care coz he's super cute!

I hope I see him again.

Hey, cuz!

When you see him again, don't ever let go!

Hi Uncle King, Uncle Conde!

- Excuse me! Make way! - Lavina, you're always in a hurry.

- Lavina you're early. - Ivan's coming here.

Yeah at 10:30. For basketball.

No! No!

He said he had a "slow mo" with you!

What "slow mo"?

I think he's in love!

What?!

What are you saying?

I heard him say...

the girl he had a "slow mo" moment with is here, in the roasting house!

And there's no other girl here.

Just you!

Me?

Yes, you!

OMG!

The one in Aunt Baby's house!

What house?

No, never mind.

Ivan's here!

- Hurry, fix yourself up! - Wait!

Auntie Baby was right.

You are here.

It's you.

Me?

It's you!

Excuse me.

Oops.

Sorry, you're not the "slow mo" girl.

You're just slow.

Where do you live in the US?

I'm from California. From LA.

Do you speak Visayan or Tagalog?

Yup. Actually both. My mom taught me.

And so--

Hey! Are we done here?

We're okay here, right?

Yes, we're good.

We're good now, right?

Ooh, pig tail! Yummy!

Patchot, hold it.

Here, Angel, try this.

This is really good. Patchot and I love this.

Try it. It tastes different but it's really good.

Thank you but I don't eat pork.

Isn't it creepy to eat a pig's tail?

Is that so?

Sorry about Ivan.

He just have KFT, like Patchot!

Excuse me. You need more room here.

- Yes, make space. - What's KFT?

"Killer Food Trip"!

Ivan loves intestines, liver...

- That's good! - But it's good!

Here Angel, just have this. It's also good.

Move! Move!

Hey girl, it's just tail!

What?

What I mean is you'll be tailing them in their dates.

You're the third wheel now!

Hey! Don't forget about later!

We're playing basketball, right?

- Game! - How about you Ivan?

Ivan, is the salon far from here?

It's near. You want me to show you?

- Okay. - I'll go with you.

We'll go too!

What about basketball?

Patchot, let's go with Angel first, okay?

"I'm Also Hair So You'll Be Fairer by Dolly Vargas"

Hey!

You ugly rabbit!

You really have the nerve to put up your salon here!

Of all places!

You want trouble, huh?

Oh You're hair

Gwen... is that you?

Yes!

You know what, Gwen?

Past is past. I've moved on, but you?

Why haven't you moved on? It's been a year since Edward died!

May he rest in peace.

Gwen, forget the past!

You forgave your husband right?

Why can't you forgive me?

How can I forgive my husband's mistress?

What am I? Insane?

Mistress! That hurts!

Well, you are insane. Your whole family is.

Your brother's crazy. Where is he?

Where's Baby?

Baby!

Hey, don't drag my brother into this! Are we clear?

Outraged?

Furious?

Yes!

But it's true!

Where is he? Is he still cutting hair?

Not anymore! What is he cutting now?

Newspapers! Tabloids!

My brother is not crazy!

Then where is he?

He's at home...

Resting!

Resting forever!

- He's preparing for... - For what?

He's preparing for his comeback!

- Comeback? Is he an actor? - A movie star?

He'll be making a comeback...

He'll be joining the hair and makeup contest...

of Bridal Fair Philippines Incorporated in May!

What a coincidence!

- We just registered... yesterday! - Yesterday!

And I'm sure, we will win!

Do you want to make a bet, rabbit misfit?

What bet, woman of great heft?

Okay, here's what we'll do.

Whoever wins will stay here.

And whoever loses...

Shoo! Pack-up! Good bye!

Call?

- Call! Call! Call! -Call!

You better bring it on!

You should cook the noodles in your hair!

I don't know about that woman.

She looks like a hag that's why her husband left her.

Unlike me, right?

Hey, you thick-faced bitch!

Please! Your fats are way thicker!

Not as thick as your gums!

Thick gums? That hurts!

So? You wanna fight?

Hey, stop it!

Patchot! Help!

- Ouch. - Ouch.

This is nerve-racking!

Wrinkle-causing!

Can you pass me that?

That Dolly will see.

I'm gonna beat her in this bet!

Does it still hurt?

Not anymore, coz you're here already.

Ivan!

Oops, it still hurts. Yeah, it does.

Here.

Ouch!

You'll get used to the pain.

It will hurt even more.

Is it going to be more painful than what I'm seeing?

Patch!

If Ivan wants to date me, is it okay with you?

What?

Why are you asking me that?

You guys might have a thing.

You guys have been best friends for so long, right?

They say that with best friends, one likes the other secretly.

That's not true!

He said it himself.

There are girls who are girlfriend material.

And girls who are best friend material.

What if he likes you?

He always teases me!

I'm not his type!

And you? Do you like him?

What?

Ivan? Yuck, no!

What about you?

You like that lizard boy?

Well, he's a cute lizard.

Hey!

Wow, are you here to court Patchot?

Since when did you start liking her?

There she is!

No, it's for your other cousin. Angel.

There's Patchot!

Ah. Catch!

Lover boy mode again? So soon?

Handsome, right?

- Wow! - Wow!

Ivan! Hey, bro! You're looking good!

Who are you trying to impress? Patchot?

Hey, Ivan! I'm not yet allowing suitors for my partner, okay?

Uncle King, he's here for Angel.

Then, that's okay!

There she is!

Hi Angel!

Hi Ivan!

Flowers... for you.

It's beautiful.

And dried mangoes.

Dried mangoes are my favorite.

Thank you!

Can... You wanna go out?

Let's CACAL.

- CACAL? - You don't know CACAL?

Cafe Cafe Lounging.

Oh. Coffee. Sure!

Hey! That's a date, right?

Will your mom allow you?

Yes, Uncle King. My mom already allows me to date.

My mom's cool isn't she?

So, I'll just fix up a bit. Okay?

Sis, if we win in this contest...

With the magic of your hands.

Dolly will lose her parlor!

Isn't that great?

So please, sis? Go back to hairstyling.

You're good in contests like this. You always won.

It's time for your comeback!

Okay.

I'll join the contest.

Really sis?

You're going to cut again?

Cut hair, right?

Thank you, sis!

You're hurting me.

Sorry!

But I want Patchot to be my model.

Patchot?

Why?

Auntie, she won't agree to this--

If it's basketball, maybe she will.

Sis, are you sure about this?

I want Patchot.

Auntie, Uncle King will not allow her.

How about her cousin, Angel?

We will have another date.

I can ask her for you.

Only Patchot.

All or nothing.

You're so cute!

Smile!

Okay.

I'll go straight to the point.

You know?

YOLO!

You Only Live Once!

Exactly. So...

L.I.S.

What's that?

Life ls Short.

So if you want something, just say it!

If not, then don't. Seize the moment!

You know, we have the same WOW.

WOW?

Words Of Wisdom.

Okay.

We think alike.

That's why we're not animals, we're not people.

We are a thing.

You're so cheesy!

I didn't sleep just to rehearse that.

Angel

I like you.

Ivan

I like you too.

Come again? I didn't catch that.

What did you say?

I said I like you.

So, are we a thing now?

Wow!

Words Of Wisdom?

No. Wow!

Don't worry, I'll talk to your dad.

Leave it to me.

I can convince him.

King!

- Partner! You're here? - Partner!

Gwen, here's your order.

This is a lot.

What's the occasion?

Jolina, take these to the kitchen.

Well, King...

I knew it.

You need a favor, right?

What is it?

King

Baby wants Patchot to be the model of our salon...

for the hair and makeup contest in May.

You should be proud.

My sister probably saw a beauty queen in Patchot, just like her mother.

She believes that if your daughter will be our model,

it will be a sure win.

I'm sorry Gwen.

Just find another girl for that, okay?

Auntie Gwen, why did you pick Patchot as your model?

Is it because of the big difference of the "before and after"?

You're crazy!

Crazy!

King!

You know... all that fuss about makeup?

And hair styling?

That's not what my daughter wants.

Right, Partner?

I'm really sorry, Auntie Gwen.

- Have you tried this? - No.

You should.

This one is also good. Try it.

Hey Ivan!

You're trying to take advantage of my cousin again!

No, Patchot!

She's already my girlfriend!

Catch, right?

Yes.

Catch!

My cousin, Angel...

she's the pretty one.

She's actually Ivan's girlfriend now.

Besides, Auntie Baby,

I don't think I'm model material.

I'm not pretty.

And who told you that?

Come here.

Come.

Is she the one who told you you're not beautiful?

What an insecure girl.

You remind me of your mother.

But you don't look alike.

I know.

I don't know why people say I look like her.

Your beauty is different.

It's somewhere there!

But...

it seems to be hidden.

It's being hidden away.

Auntie, I've always been like this.

Why? Are we not allowed to change?

To be different?

Patchot, you still have a fighting chance!

Battle's over.

I lost.

You've given up!

The battle hasn't even started yet!

You think your powers will work on me?

If we work together, yes!

So?

Are you in or are you out?

There you go!

Don't worry. I'll take care of you.

I'm so excited!

- Oops. - Ouch!

Don't worry...

we will bring out your hidden beauty.

Think of it as ant bites.

How many ants?

Sshh. Stop moving. This will be quick. Just stay put.

Thank you.

Done!

Wow!

Beautiful!

Ivan should see this but Lover Boy is too busy.

Did you see that?

What?

Oh sorry. I was uploading photos in Facebook.

Go do it again.

Smile!

I've noticed, your complexion is uneven.

Use these. So it will be easier to put makeup on you.

But Auntie... you think this will work on me?

To see is to believe.

Here, hold this. And then this.

Use this to direct your aim.

Okay? Alright? Alright.

Ivan, you do know you're just wasting your time.

You know sports is not my thing, right?

Sorry.

Lavina, come here.

Why Auntie?

Just sit down.

Let's work on your mustache!

Game!

- No! Please, no! - Stay still! Think of ant bites!

Go Ivan!

Go Ivan! Go Ivan! Go! Go! Go Ivan! Go!

Go Ivan!

Never mind.

Let's just go and take pictures.

You know, something is different about you.

You're getting prettier.

Really?

Yes! You're blooming!

Don't be shy about it.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

One line... Chin up...

Careful!

Walk with confidence.

Nothing is stopping you.

You could even fly if you want.

As if you have wings!

Go!

Slowly...

Good...

Sis, you're really changing this girl's life.

She's the one changing my life.

Say cheese!

You look good!

Really?

Yes!

You are so cute!

Okay.

What?

Nothing. There's just...

You have something here.

There. No, the other side.

There. It's gone now!

What's so funny?

Nothing.

Nothing really! Just look!

Ivan, it's not funny.

Let me.

No, its okay.

I'm sorry.

I forgot how much of a girl you are.

It's okay.

Hi Uncle King!

You guys, be careful okay?

- Yes, Uncle! - Where's Patchot?

She's getting ready.

Your friends are here!

I'm coming!

I'm ready!

Wow, new clothes. You went shopping?

Dude, I knew there's something different about you.

Big Sis, is that a new haircut?

Angel, let me help you.

Ivan! I'm here.

Game! Game!

Ivan's so cute, right?

Are there other places to go here?

Why?

You want some alone time with Ivan?

We're on GHOHOL remember.

Not the usual dates you go to.

GHOHOL?

Group Hang Out Hang Out and Lounging.

QT with friends.

Quality Time!

Ah okay, I get it.

I'm just gonna go and get a drink.

Am I the only target here? I'm getting tired, dude!

Yeah. I'm supposed to dodge the ball too!

I'm part of the game, you know.

Why will we hit you? You don't look like you're supposed to be hit.

What?

Because you should be hit with a flying kiss!

Look girl!

Those guys have been looking at you and checking you out!

Give them a signature hair flip!

- Wow, certified chick! - Stop it. It's embarrassing.

See, they're waiting for your kiss!

Look! Look!

Now they're looking at each other.

Let's stop this game.

I quit.

Oops.

Ivan, let's just take pictures over there by the pool!

Pictures again?

Please? Before I go to Manila.

Okay.

Thank you.

The boy is kinda cute.

And he looks really interested in Patch.

You call that cute?

He looks like a monkey!

He's not Patchot's type!

What's her type?

I don't know.

But I'm sure it's not him.

Look at her, she's just forcing a smile.

She's in a bad trip now.

Actually, it looks like he's making her smile.

No. Not even close! That's a fake smile!

That's not how Patchot really smiles. She smiles with her gums sticking out!

Like this...

Ivan, stop it.

Poor Patchot.

Maybe I should go there!

Ivan, you know what?

You're really acting jealous.

Angel, I'm not jealous.

She's my best friend.

I'm just being protective.

You know what?

Patch is really lucky to have you as a best friend.

And of course...

I'm also lucky because you're my boyfriend.

You know what sis, you're such a winner!

You really did a good job with Patchot!

There's always room for change in everyone.

Why is it so crowded all of a sudden.

Excuse! Excuse me!

Except for that frog!

Oh, "hair" there!

Baby! I didn't know you're already well.

You sure you're okay?

Yes, of course.

Can't say the same for you.

Hilarious!

I didn't go insane like you.

Oh really? Sure seems like it.

You know Baby, I won't argue with you anymore.

Let's just wait for the hair and makeup competition.

I'm sure your eyes will pop out and you'll be dripping in your body fat...

when you see my creative reveal!

Wow! The only thing bigger than your eyes is your gums.

That hurts, Gwen.

If I were you I'll start packing up the parlor because you're bound to lose.

And you should start accepting home services.

Oh, funeral services are also good for you too.

Barbie here will knock your socks off.

Right Barbie?

Right, madam!

Excuse me.

I may have been out of the loop the last two years,

but it doesn't diminish my undeniable talent,

my unwavering commitment to excellence,

and my God-given beauty.

And FYI,

you're just a beautician,

I am an artist.

What?

Madam, you're having a nosebleed!

Relax. I can handle this.

Hey!

Hey?

Let's go gays!

How's Manila so far?

It's okay. We'll be going to Tagaytay in a bit.

I'm really excited. But I miss Ivan so much.

Hey Patch!

Watch over my boyfriend, okay?

You know...

keep him away from other girls.

What?

You know what I mean!

Patch, well be leaving soon. Bye!

Bye.

What are you doing here?

So this keeps you busy now?

How are you Patchot?

Wow! How am I?

How are you?

You're always M.I.A.

You only showed up yesterday.

Me? M.I.A.?

You're the one who's Missing In Action.

I always invite you on my dates with Angel, you don't show up.

You really want me to tag along?

No!

But you know what I really missed?

Basketball!

Angel doesn't like sports.

So, how's your new look?

You noticed?

Maybe. I do have eyes.

Patchot, can we play basketball?

Please? Let's play!

Later or tomorrow?

What about now?

Sure!

As in now?

Hold on! I'll just finish this.

You're not playing basketball.

Because you will dance.

What?

Your Auntie Baby has a plan for the presentation.

We will reveal Patchot as a beautiful bride,

walking gracefully down the aisle.

- Lovely idea! - What?

Romantic first dance of the bride and the groom!

Patchot, meet your groom. Ivan.

Ivan, this is Patchot. Your bride.

What?

What?

Sis...

I think we have a problem.

Superpower!

Hey! Hey!

What do you think you're doing?

Stop fooling around.

This is how you should do it.

Your hand on her waist. Like that.

Just hold her. Come on.

Don't be shy about it.

Look of love!

That's what you should do.

Stop worrying.

To dance is to catch each other.

You always say "catch" to each other right?

Just do that.

Do the waltz.

Never imagined

The world is so lovely

and suddenly splendid

since you came into my life

Never even hoped for

Joy so overwhelming

Life has more meaning

since you came into my life

Life has more meaning since you came into my life

After 45 minutes of styling,

Patchot will take the catwalk and show her creative reveal.

After which, she'll go back to her place.

And the judges will look at her and admire Baby's masterpiece.

I'm sure Patchot will get lots of card points!

Winner!

Good thing we got you a model to practice on...

while Ivan and Patchot are busy rehearsing.

There!

N-K-K-L-K

New Killer Killer Look Kid!

Who's that girl?!

Oh shut up! That's just you.

So pretty!

Makeup, 35%

Hairstyle, 35%

Total look, 20%

Creative reveal

10%

It could be dancing, acting, modeling or whatever.

For a total of 100%

So Auntie Baby?

Were you able to achieve the look you want for Patchot?

Actually, not yet.

I think I left something undone.

What?

Auntie Baby, I forgot about our basketball game.

I have to go. Excuse me!

Why was she in a hurry?

I don't know. I just wanted to contour her eyebrows.

Wow You're such a sweetie I--

Patchot, have a seat.

Sit down, princess.

Here, have some water.

I know you're tired.

You go, girl!

He is so sweet!

How romantic!

Dude! Are we still gonna play?

Yes! Let's go, dude!

Come on! Hey! It's game time!

Hey!

Ivan!

Ivan, what happened?

Where were you looking?

Ivan!

I love you!

I love you too.

Angel, what are you doing here?

Cause I missed you already. Didn't you miss me?

I did.

Guys, can Ivan rest for a while?

Sure. Go ahead.

- Let's play one on one. - Thank you.

Girl, let's go.

The girlfriend's here.

R.Y.P. Remember Your Place and keep a straight face.

Okay?

Trying to be a martyr?

Don't be!

Don't be foolish!

You're acting like a fool.

Let's go!

Hey. Let's go.

I don't want you to be emo here.

Time to go home.

I'll just wait for Angel.

Hey, aren't you leaving yet?

Angel!

Aren't you going home yet?

Actually Patch, Ivan and I want to do some hanging out.

We didn't get to talk that much in Manila.

Sorry about that, Angel. We were busy rehearsing the dance.

Yeah, for the Bridal Fair.

Auntie Baby signed us up.

Sorry.

No problem. I'm just glad to be back.

I'll just meet you back at the house.

Patchot! Patchot!

You should come with us.

Ivan, I thought we were gonna spend our own quality time?

Not GHOHOL.

We'll go ahead.

Ivan, are you okay?

Are we okay?

Yes.

Of course we are.

Let's go?

Partner!

What are you doing here?

I thought you were out with your friends?

No, Dad.

Sorry if I've hanging out with Lavina a lot.

We're just making the most out of summer.

That's fine, Partner!

I was a teenager once.

I understand.

But Partner, don't miss the catering event this Saturday.

The Bridal Fair Contest at the Convention Center.

What?

I thought you turned it down?

They had a problem with the caterer.

So they asked for my help and I agreed. The pay is good anyway.

So block that day for me, okay?

I need you there.

By the way, ls Angel at home?

Or out on a date with Ivan again?

They're on a date.

Hey Patchot,

I don't want you dating around just yet, okay?

Good thing no one's making a move on you yet.

With how I look?

No guy's that stupid.

No guy will ever be that stupid.

Because I'll probably just stay this way forever.

I'll just go to the rest room.

- Something's bothering you. - Something's bothering you.

- What is it? - What is it?

- Catch! - Catch!

Okay, ladies first.

What's up?

Lady?

Why?

Nothing.

Then what's bothering my girl best friend?

Girl...

Lady...

You've got a problem with that?

No, nothing.

I'm just not used to it.

We'll be catering the hair and makeup competition.

Dad agreed to do it.

Oh no. What's your plan?

He'll see you there.

Exactly. That's my problem.

I don't want to back out on Auntie Baby.

And Auntie Gwen.

But I also don't want to let my dad down.

It's actually funny.

I wasn't into these kinds of things before.

All these beauty stuff...

not really a catch.

But now...

it seems okay.

It feels okay to change...

and...

people notice you...

that you look good.

And they call you a girl...

a lady...

a princess.

But...

why does change seem so hard?

So wrong?

Come on, let's practice!

What about my prob--

Let's not think about it for now. Okay?

Are you feeling better?

Even if I'm not...

even if things are falling apart...

I'll be okay.

Because you're here.

Thank you.

So how about you? What's your problem?

Patchot.

When we were playing basketball...

something happened...

Ivan!

Patch!

Angel, let me explain!

What are you going to explain?

That I'm stupid enough to sense that you and Ivan...

have something more than just being best friends?

Why are you so angry?

You think I'm stealing Ivan away from you?

Angel, I'm his best friend way before you became his girlfriend!

Yeah, you're right! But you're just the best friend!

I know I'm just the best friend!

That's why I'm doing this to help Auntie Gwen!

I'm doing this for my best friend!

Oh come on Patch!

Is that really the reason why you joined that hair and makeup thing?

You want to be pretty, right?

You're doing all of this for him!

Why? Because you want him to see you differently?

No!

Because I want all of you to see me as me.

Patchot!

I've been missing out a lot about you Partner.

You and Angel are fighting over Ivan?

And you joined a beauty contest?

Behind my back?

Dad, it's not a beauty contest.

It's for hair and makeup.

It's the same thing!

You know I don't like those frivolous things!

What's not frivolous for you Dad?

That I stay in the roasting house forever?

Why?

What kind of life do you want, Patchot?

You want to be like your mother?!

Dad, I'm not like her.

We're not the same.

Not yet!

But I'm not going to be like her!

And I wish you'll trust me enough to think that I won't do what she did!

But why do you have to join that stupid contest?

For a change Dad.

I don't want to be stuck here in the roasting house,

as one of the boys...

scorched by smoke.

I just want to feel and be like a real girl.

But we treat you like a girl.

You're our princess!

Of what?

Princess of Roasted Pigs?

So what are you saying?

You're not happy with what you have now?

I thought you were my partner.

That's the problem, Dad.

I'm always your partner but not your daughter.

You never asked me what I really wanted.

Are you telling me you were just pretending to be happy all along?

Is that it?

No Dad!

Dad, did it ever occur to you that...

maybe I wanted to wear a dress like a girl?

That maybe...

I want people to see me as a girl with no mustache?

That maybe I want someone to tell me I'm pretty?

Dad, sometimes I feel...

you so badly want me not to be like mom...

that you stop me from becoming who I can truly be.

I know you were hurt when she left us, Dad.

I understand that.

I understand why you don't want to talk about her.

And why you don't want to hear her name.

But Dad, she hurt me too.

Auntie, I'm sorry.

You just wasted your time on me.

There are other girls prettier than me.

And if I'm your model, Auntie Gwen will surely lose to Dolly.

Why do I feel like... all my plans failed.

Do you know why I chose you to be my model?

Do you remember, on Emil's death anniversary?

You said that...

you're the girl no one will ever see?

Is that why you chose me?

No, Patchot.

People don't see you because you're hiding from them.

If you think you're ugly, you're wrong.

I didn't pick you to make you beautiful.

I made you my model for you to know and feel...

that you are beautiful.

Come here.

Look.

She's beautiful.

But...

it's not my eyes...

or your dad's, or man's...

that should see that.

Your own eyes should tell you that.

Those are for you.

I backed out from the contest.

Dad found out.

And I also talked to Auntie Baby.

I told her to get you as the model instead.

I'll just be right outside.

Sis, all these last-minute changes are stressing me out!

They need to perfect the dance by tomorrow!

I still need to beat Dolly!

Can you please shut up? Keep your stress to yourself.

What are you doing?

I'm doing the "slow mo".

What?

The "slow mo" moment.

Maybe if you see me in "slow mo", things could go back to the way they were.

Angel, you don't have to do that.

Okay.

Maybe well get the "slow mo" tomorrow.

Patchot, please pick up.

Patchot!

Patchot, do you plan to avoid me forever?

Patchot, please talk to me.

You're not answering--

What the?!

What was that for?!

I had to hit your head to make you honest.

What do you want me to say?

Patchot.

The truth. I want you to say what you really feel.

When you told me you love me,

did you mean it?

Was it true?

Yes, it's true!

Fine, I love you. Ever since!

Are you happy now?

No.

Because you took it back.

Because you laughed at me!

Why?

If I didn't take it back, would you have told me you love me too?

Maybe.

Probably.

I might have.

Maybe?

Probably?

Possibly?

But with Angel it's a quick yes, right?

With Angel, it's "I love you" right away, right?

Why is it easy for you to say those words to her?

Because she's pretty? Is that it?

You really think I'm only after her looks?

You think I'm that shallow?

So what if it's shallow? It's the truth!

It's the eyes that love first, Ivan!

And I've been here all along but you never saw me.

And I'm the one with you everyday!

But my cousin... you only saw her once...

you didn't even know her... but you fell in love right away!

So, fine! I'll admit it!

I'm jealous!

I'm envious! I'm hurt!

Because I'm stuck in the friend zone!

Because I will never be the girl in your "slow mo".

Because my best friend will never love me the way I love him.

Patchot, I love you too.

You love me too?

But you also love Angel, right?

And she loves you.

I don't want to hurt my cousin.

I know you don't want to hurt her too.

This is really is it!

Finally! Dolly's defeat!

I'll still have the winning hand!

But you've already won, Mom.

Dad came back to you, right?

It's not that simple.

In the first place, your father should have never strayed.

Son, when you really love someone, you have to be faithful to that person.

But how do you know if you found the right person?

Hold that thought. I'll just get some refill.

Sis, take care of this. I don't know what to say.

How do you know?

Remember when you asked me if I believe in "slow mo"?

Well I don't believe in that.

I believe in fast forward.

Time speeds up when you finally see the person you love.

Things move in fast forward.

And then... you see her in your future.

That's what happened to me with your Uncle Emil.

At that moment I thought, MBL.

MBL?

Must Be Love!

You keep saying, YOLO. You Only Live Once.

So when you find the person you love, hold on to her.

I love you in spite of your frown.

I love you in spite of your silence.

Please say something.

What happened?

This van overheated again.

I don't want to lose you just because I'm crazy.

You have an insane Dad Partner.

I lost my mind when your mom left me.

If I only knew, I should have pressed fast forward when I saw her in "slow mo".

Why didn't you look for her?

I did, Partner!

And I found her!

I asked her to come back.

I did everything for her to come back.

But she didn't want to.

She chose to be a model in Japan.

She told me never to bother her again.

No one knows about her kid anyway.

If you learned that your mom turned her back on you,

you'll get hurt!

You know why I raised you that way?

Like one of the boys?

Cause it's the only way I know how.

I was scared.

I was afraid I won't be a good enough parent for you.

I was afraid you'll end up like your mom.

And you'II just leave me.

I'm sorry, baby.

I knew it was selfish to raise you this way.

This looks better on you.

You look like your mother.

Okay.

- Stop it. - What?

Be careful!

Where's my roast pig?

Here-- woah!

Hands up!

- And let the magic begin! - And let the magic begin!

8... 7... 6...

5... 4... 3... 2... 1!

Hands up!

Models

Please go to the backstage and get ready for your creative reveal.

Angel, we need to talk.

Now?

Sorry, Angel.

I don't want to hurt you.

I love you.

But I love Patchot more.

Sorry.

Thank you for being honest with me.

Angel?

I have to do something.

Angel, why are you here?

Patch, I'm not for Ivan.

And I'm not for this competition either.

You should be there.

Angel?

It's okay.

I'm okay.

Tito King, is it okay?

Patricia,

sweetheart,

do what will make you happy.

Sis, we're up next and they can't find Angel anywhere.

I heard your model is M.I.A.

Oh, that's too bad.

Excuse me.

Auntie!

Angel, where's your gown?

Auntie, we have a new model.

But don't worry, she's naturally beautiful.

It will be easy for Auntie Baby to fix her up.

I'm sorry.

Miss? You okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Bye.

Model number 8 comes from Cebu as well.

Styled by, yes it is confirmed.

He's back! No other than Baby Martinez.

representing, "We Are 'Hair' So You Are Fair" Salon.

Patchot,

I never saw you in a "slow mo" moment.

Fast forward.

That's what happened.

I saw us getting married.

Patchot, I love you.

I'm sorry it took me a while to finally see the truth.

Now I know...

that you...

my best friend,

are also the girl of my dreams.

I hope,

you also see me in your fast forward.

We may have lost in the competition, but the boy I loved finally saw me.

In "slow mo" or fast forward, it doesn't matter.

Because love is not seen through those moments.

True love is not seen... through other people's eyes.

True love can be seen from within, when we begin to love ourselves.

And if you love yourself, the person you love will see you and love you more.
