(My motherland - On a razor edge)
- subfix by RSG @ KG -

Based on true events: The Strike and The Hostage

Willy!

Willy!

- How are you?
- How about you?

Are you with the marchers?

Yes.

- Up to the converging point?
- Maybe

up to the Paco Bridge.
So, how are you?

Not good, still no regular job.

I work as an extra in this jeep,
two times a week.

Sometimes three times.

- It's not enough.
- How is Luz?

- She's still in the hospital.
- That's a long confinement.

Almost two weeks.
The baby is still in incubator.

Is it bad?

Yeah.

They said babies born prematurely
after eight months are in danger

than babies born
after seven months.

Is that so?

Yeah, didn't know it too.

Sorry for what I've
said to you before.

It's nothing. I already forgot
about it and you were right.

Even so.
I was too much.

It's alright.
Forget about it.

Okay. I have to go.

- Okay. Take care.
- Give my regards to Luz.

- Don't forget.
- I'll tell her.

- You forgive me, yes?
- Yes. Forget it.

- Go on, you'll be left by the marchers.
- We may not see each other again.

- Is your application in Saudi approved?
- No. Forget it.

I will return to the
province, in Samar.

- Okay. You take care.
- You too. Say hi to Luz for me.

I will.

Amazing.

He asked for my forgiveness

even though it's me

who did wrong

to him.

- We'll all go out after work.
- Are you coming?

- Are you coming?
- You'll be in trouble with your wife.

Manny!

Manny!
Manny, come here.

- Why? Did it stop?
- I don't know.

You're pushing the wrong buttons.

Here, this is the right one.

Hey, make sure to pay
what you owe to me.

You're in trouble.

Your girlfriend was
looking for you last night.

Let's watch Charles Bronson's
movie later.

Who's coming with us?

Adyet and Rey will come.

What about Luz?
Will she let you?

- Then I'll bring her with me.
- How about our "good time"?

Just make an excuse
so she won't come.

So we can have some good time.

Load them up.

Hurry up.

This day is significant
to all of us.

Despite of the problems faced
by the printing industry,

despite of the rise in printing cost,

and shortage in the supply
of paper and ink.

We survive them all
and made it to another year.

We have many things
to be thankful for.

God, first and foremost,

for giving us this grace.

Because He let us

reach our 27th anniversary.

Praise the Lord!

And to all of who work here,

thank you.

It's also important to thank

all our satisfied customers.

Thank you!

Thank you Mr. Lim

for those inspiring words.

And now,

the next part of our program

is the conferment of awards

to the employees who have
the longest years of service

in our company.

We would like
to call again Mr. Lim

and his loving wife,

the beautiful Sally Lim

to present the awards.

Daddy, move here.

First, our favourite lino-typist

whom everybody calls Ka Ador.

We call on
Mr. Dominador Panganiban.

Ka Ador come here!

In recognition of his 20 years
of honest service..

- to Jefferson Printing Press.
- Ka Ador, congratulations.

It's a little salty.

Who prepared this?
Was it you? It should be sweeter.

Where's the noodle?

- What's wrong Luz?
- Nothing. Just a bit dizzy.

- Are you sure?
- Yes, I'm fine.

- Maybe you're pregnant.
- No, Aling Fely. I'm okay.

- Should I call Turing?
- No, no.

- Wow. I think Turing got her this time.
- About time!

It's very obvious
they wanted a child.

Here.

This is nothing.

Are you okay now?
Shall we eat?

I've done everything.

You must try Helen's diet.

You know what?
She lost 30 pounds.

To a better tomorrow!

Excuse me.

- Daddy, how's everything here?
- We're okay.

Good. Enjoy.

Excuse me.

Turing, come.

I have something to tell you.

Turing, why are you here?

You have food downstairs.

Don't you have
your party downstairs?

Yeah.

But my friends are having conversations
downstairs. They're grumbling.

They're asking why
we only have beers

and barbecue

while up here,
there's stateside drinks

and skewered..

and..

here you have
cocktail hotdogs and cheese.

I told them:

"Instead of complaining,
go upstairs

to taste hotdogs, cheese,

and imported drinks

because

Mr. and Mrs. Lim are nice people.

And it's the anniversary
of the printing press.

Right?

Yes, Turing.

Mr. Lim himself told us
that this party is for everybody.

Right?

Yes, thank you.

But Turing, you have plenty of food
downstairs, right?

- Yes, there's plenty.
- Hugo, just a minute.

Hey, Hugo, come here.

Why is he here?

- I have no idea.
- He's drunk.

Turing, that's empty.
Let's go down.

Wait. Let's bring this.

- Not that. Drink beer instead.
- They're complaining..

Bring him down.

- We're sorry, Mrs. Lim.
- What's there to be sorry for?

- We're not doing anything wrong.
- Let's go.

We did nothing wrong,
why are you apologizing?

I'm not doing anything wrong.

Mr. Lim, you announced
that this party is for everybody

because it's our anniversary?
Then what's this?

Sorry, Mr. Lim.

- Don't take me for a fool.
- Stop it, it's embarrassing.

When I do nothing,
it's embarrassing.

When I stand for myself,
it's still embarrassing.

What do you want to happen?

Turing, stop!
Let's talk when we get home!

Leave me alone!

You want me to always obey you!

You want me to be submissive!
Motherfucker!

Bugoy, sell me some ice!

Smells foul!

I heard my favorite music..

Oh well, Turing is a bad drunk.
Gets crazy with alcohol.

I thought he's a nice guy.

Thought he's a loving husband,
responsible worker..

Now I know, he goes
crazy when he's drunk.

Watch out, Aling Fely.
He's pissed.

You still haven't made up with him?

That's bad for a couple.

You'd better talk to him.

Soon, it'll be harder to make up.

Turing!

Turing!

Hey, my friend!

Lando, remember?

I almost didn't recognize you.
You've grown your hair.

Bald is out of style and
I don't sport earrings anymore.

- So, how are you?
- How are you?

Well, crazy as before.

By the way, this is Boy.

Shitboy, my business partner.

Boy, this is Turing, the guy
I'm telling you about.

Teenage friend.

- This is my wife, Luz.
- Hi!

- This is Boy..
- Shitboy, buddy.

What are you doing right now?

I'm working in printing press.
And you?

I'm in buy and sell.

- You look good.
- Just getting lucky.

Business is good.

By the way,
where are you headed to?

We're going home.

- Let's get some drink.
- What?

Come on. I have not
seen you for a long time.

Let's get some drink.

- Come on, don't say no.
- Okay, where shall we meet?

Where can we fetch you?

- At Stop & Shop in Santa Mesa.
- Good.

My friend,

I'm telling you, believe me,
it's good here.

Buddy, that's my chick.

Who? That girl?

She's heavy, man.

Where?

I'll go.

I'm sorry, I have to attend
to something.

Just order what you like.

Boy, take care of Turing.

Don't worry about me.
I'm good.

I'll be quick.

My friend, if you don't mind
me asking,

why do they call you Shitboy?

It's a secret, my friend.

- Luz, what are you doing?
- Nothing.

- Where's Turing?
- He went out with friends.

Ah, okay.

Come here.
Have a seat.

Your show is great.

By the way,

Turing, this is Dhalee,
my girlfriend.

It's better that we're clear.

You can look
but you're off limit to her.

Isn't she lovely?

Show your tits a little bit
so my friend can have a look.

Love, I will leave Turing with you
for a while.

- I'll jerk off.
- What?

I'll pee. Wait here.

I'll be quick.

This is the first time I saw you.

This is the first time I went out
with Lando and Boy.

Hmmm. You look decent.

How did you end up
with these thugs from City Jail?

Dhalee, don't joke like that,
Turing might believe you.

Are you also
in buy and sell business?

No. I'm a minervista
in the print shop.

Minervista? What's that?

The machine I handle
in the shop is called Minerva.

And my name is Dhalee.

Not Dolly, D-O-L-L-Y.

Dhalee.

Hey, wake up!

Finish your food!

Finish your game, wake them up!

Mr. Lim might see them.

Finish playing cards.

Hurry. You're too slow.

Come on, hurry up, clean this.

So I was with this chick's house..

- The new one?
- Yes.

- What's her name?
- Forget the name, Ka Ador.

Go on, Willy.

Proceed with your story.

Please pass the salt.

So when I left the house

I was stopped by some thugs
on the street.

They threatened me and told me

not to come back.

But you want to see that chick again?

- That's the problem.
- That's it.

Wait.

Aren't you going to Saudi?

What's the connection between
that chick and Saudi?

Bah! If he's going to Saudi,
why go after a chick here?

That's love, Ka Ador.
As if you've never been in love.

Wait, wait.

Willy, you have to deal
with those thugs

so you can see your chick again.

Are you thinking of
something bad, Turing?

No.

- Go home without me, Luz.
- Don't do anything stupid.

No. It's only for fun.
I'll just work on something with Willy.

We're police officers.

Dude,

who among these threatened you?

Wait. I smell something.

That's weed!

I think it's better
if I arrest all of you.

Don't move!

- Get in the car.
- I didn't do anything!

You. You want to come too?

Wait, I think this guy is tough.
Maybe it's better to finish him off.

No please. Have mercy.
Have mercy on me!

I confess.

You see, he confessed.
It's better to finish him off.

- Please don't!
- Sir, I forgive him.

- Please set him free.
- This kind of people

don't need pardon.
He'll do it again.

Go on, finish him!

Sir. Sir, let him go!

Be grateful that my friend
is being nice, otherwise..

- Sergeant, take the handcuff off.
- Give me your hands!

Your hands!

You're lucky,
Willy is nice or else...

Oi!

Tell your fellow thugs
not to mess with my friend.

Yes, sir.

Or you'll all be in trouble.
Understood?

Yes, yes.

Go ahead!

Ask for forgiveness first.

Show some respect!

Sir..

Forgive me, sir.

That's enough.
Go. Quick!

Quick!

He thought you're a police!

Why?

Isn't he for real?

Oh. This one too?

Come on.
Let's go home.

We just scared him
so he won't bother you anymore.

Get inside.

Dude, we're so convincing
that we even tricked Willy.

You're still as crazy as before!

Turing!

The guy was shit scared.

- And even Willy fell for it!
- I really thought he's a policeman.

Turing, Luz fainted.

What happened?

Luz?

Give her space.

I don't know how it happened.

Oh well.
You're pregnant again, Luz.

- For how many times?
- Third time.

You already had two miscarriages.

I know.

- How's my wife, Doc?
- Your wife is pregnant again.

- Really? For real?
- Yes. Happy?

I know that
you really want a baby.

Sure, we've been waiting
for four years already.

You're ecstatic

since it's not you
who gets pregnant!

Luz, here's your prescription.

Make sure that you buy them all.
You know how to take them, right?

- Come back when you're done.
- Yes, Doc.

- Turing, what's up?
- Are you working today?

Yes, I'm already late.

- Go on. Get upstairs.
- Mom.

- Hey, Turing.
- How are you?

Why the surprise visit?

Ana, Turing is here.

Wash your hands,
we're going to eat.

Make sure you wash your hands
before you eat.

Go ahead and
get yourself washed. Ana!

Ana, Turing is here.

Bah! This is unexpected.
Why? Did you have a fight with Luz?

Why? Do I come here only
when I'm in bad terms with her?

By the way, where is she?

She stays at home.

She's complaining that she feels
like in house arrest.

Mercedes, get the dish.

You? How are you, huh?

Your wife is cumbersome
when she gets pregnant.

Look at me, I got 5 kids.

Even when it's almost my due,
I can still work in the market.

Because you're strong
as a horse, sister.

You fell for a college girl
who is cultured and opulent.

Even she's like that,
she knows how to work.

Unlike your husband. You have 5 kids
already, and he's not yet regular.

There is no regularization
in carpentry work. Not like you.

Even if it's hard,
we have food to eat.

And we're still able
to support mom.

Will you two stop?
You're unbelievable, Ana,

Your brother is rarely here
and you start an argument.

Sit down and let's eat.

- Okay, let's eat.
- Give me the child.

She's right, Ma.

Turing, dine with us.

Sorry Ma,

if I'm not able to support you.

I'm in dire need of money.
The medicines are too expensive.

Don't worry about it, we get by.

So why did you come here?

Nothing.

If you come here for money,
we don't have any.

Ana, please.

Will you stop nagging
your brother?

Sorry, dude.

You know me. I'll lend you money
if I have some..

but what you're asking
is a big amount.

No, it's fine, Tony.

I'm just taking chances.

I'm really distraught on
how to find money.

Just for the medicines.

Okay, bye.

- Sorry.
- It's okay.

- Turing, give my regards to Luz.
- Sure.

I know a way to earn money.

You might be interested with a side job.

What kind of side job?

Make us a map of the printing press
and the house of your boss.

If you can get the key,
that's better.

You won't be involved.

Your boss' looks can be deceiving,
but I bet he's a millionaire.

So if we can get our hands
on his vault, we'll be rich.

That's too much..

- I thought you're in buy and sell.
- It's the same shit.

You know me even then.

The break-ins and shoplifting,

it's only for fun, right?

In the beginning, yes.

Then it becomes a way of life.

When martial law was declared,

I heard you were
detained in Munti.

Upon your release,
I never heard of you.

I thought you changed.

Dude, in Munti,

you will learn a lot of things,
except changing ways.

Sorry, dude.

I'm not cut for that.

Okay.

We misread you.

Sorry.

But if you ever change your mind,

just let me know.

- Can I talk to the boss?
- He's busy.

- Please. It's important.
- Let me see. Hold on.

Boss, Turing would like
to have a word with you.

Turing. Come.

Come in.

This is rush.
Send it immediately.

Sit down.

Thank you.

So, what's the problem?

Er.. It's about Luz.

The doctor said

Luz needs to stop from working

so she will not have
a miscarriage,

because her womb is weak.

She needs complete rest.

She's not allowed to do heavy chores
and to wobble in commute.

She needs to leave.

If it's possible.

Okay.

Er..

There are too many prescriptions

from the doctor and..

they're a bit expensive.

But she assured that if we really
want a baby, we need..

Luz isn't a regular employee.

- You know that.
- Yes, sir.

Meaning,

I'm not in obligation
to give her sick leave,

or maternity leave,
or any other benefits.

But I know
that you're in need of money,

so I will give Luz
her full salary for this month.

And I can promise you this:

after she gives birth
I will accept her again.

I can only give that much, Turing.

What now, Turing?
Wanna overtime?

Right?

No, not at all.
Here, take another one.

Dude, don't worry
about your problems.

That's nothing, right?

Go on. Eat. Just eat.

Did you notice Hugo..

I'll take one.

Did you see Hugo earlier?
He's been with Mr. Lim nonstop.

Fuck this life.

You work like a horse for the day
and when evening comes..

I may end up just like my father.

He worked hard all his life
for the family.

And he died young.

Tone down your voice,
they might hear us.

- Turing? Are you really okay?
- Yes.

- Just tired.
- Wanna eat some more?

- Watch out! It's slippery.
- I know. I'm in a rush!

These medicines are now
way more expensive.

Because they're all imported.

I know.

The thing is,
it's only me who's working.

Luz,

what if you write to your father?

No way.

Maybe these meds
are cheaper in the States.

Maybe they can bring us some.

Or maybe a few dollars.
Maybe they can send us a few dollars.

The baby is coming out next month.

We need a great deal of money.

I said no way.

- Get a loan from the office.
- Give me coffee.

Your disgust for one another
is unbelievable.

I think, he's just waiting for you.

Maybe he wanted you
to approach him first.

What he wanted is for me
to beg for mercy.

You know him,

he's an ex-army.
He's tough and will not surrender.

Just like his daughter.

He's angry with me
for two reasons.

First, I became
an activist in college.

Second, I choose
a good-for-nothing partner like you.

Maybe if you did not run off with me,

you'll be in the States by now.

I'm sure you'll be petitioned
by your father.

Maybe you're already
an American citizen by now.

Or maybe a teacher

or old maid.

Or a snob!

Silly.

Here.

Thanks. My head hurts.

We can't do that.
The doctor told us..

It's not forbidden.

Even so.
I'm just afraid.

The doctor said it's fine.
I just have to be careful.

I don't want to, Turing.

Who is it?

Who's there?

Wait a second!

Wait!

- Who's there?
- Buddy, it's Lando.

What's wrong?

We're in trouble, buddy.

Can you let us stay here
for a few nights?

Until we can find a new hideout.

It won't be long because
we don't want you to be in trouble.

Well,

only if it's fine with you.
If not, I won't take it personally.

Dhalee..
Dhalee, hold on.

Who are you?

It's me, Turing.

Remember, I was here
with Lando and Shitboy.

So what?

Lando wanted to see you.

I'm here to get you.

This is the only cash I have.

You didn't gave me a heads up.
I will go to the bank tomorrow.

- Oh, tomorrow is Saturday.
- Friday.

Oh, is it Friday?

Then I'll go to the bank
and will come back here.

Buddy.
I know you need it.

- No. You need that more than I do.
- Come on, don't be shy.

No. I'm okay.

Boy..

- Lando, why did you choose this place?
- Who's that?

- Why don't you come to my apartment?
- It's nothing. Let them be.

Because you always have visitors.

I don't have time
to socialize with people.

- Hey..
- Go ahead.

Next time,
if you'll have to see me,

send somebody who I know.
I met Turing only once,

my memory isn't good.

It's better to be sure.

The cops might find out.

Nobody goes there to see me.

I suppose the cops
will not visit me

because I don't know
the guy who got caught.

He's not going to rat us.

Even if Paco is edgy,

- he won't squeal.
- I hope so.

I hope so too.

That's why
we can't take chances.

Tomorrow, find us a new hideout.

Why me?

Who else?
It can't be us.

Lando, will you stop what you're doing?

I will find you a new job.

Bouncer in club.

- Do I look like a bouncer?
- Floor manager.

Just find us a new place.
Let's talk about that some other time.

You're asking for advance pay again?
You just had one.

I'm afraid you'll have nothing left
on pay day.

How can you pay your balance?

I know sir, but I am really
in a dire situation.

Even with my overtime, it's still
not enough to buy the medicines.

The medicines are really
that expensive.

Are you aware that there's an effort
to organize a union here?

Union, sir?

Union.

I heard that somebody is organizing
a labor union.

Are you not being approached
by anybody?

No, sir.

You're not a member of the union?

No, sir.

Good.

I'll pay you in advance,

but you'll have to sign this.

- What is that?
- This is a waiver.

Proof that you're not
a member of any union.

Come on buddy, let's eat.

It's good that your shirt
fits me and Boy.

Coz we're just the same size.

Your belly is a bit bigger though.

- You're really funny, Turing.
- Let's eat.

- Eat with us.
- Go on. I'm not hungry.

Sorry for that.
She's pregnant.

That's Dhalee.

Let me open the door.

- Where's Lando?
- Inside.

Did you find a place?

The place is nice.
Quiet, but a bit expensive.

You're really good.

I am pleased
that you get it done so fast.

They're a little upset at the club
because I didn't show up.

But it's infrequent.

Buddy, your wife
will finally be able to relax.

Please excuse my wife's behavior, buddy.

We should be sorry for
the trouble we caused you.

No, it's nothing.

Now that the food is ready..

I think you've been followed.

Who's there?

Turing, Luz..
It's Ka Ador and the others.

- Wait a minute.
- Turing..

Just a moment, Ka Ador.

Get inside.

Hold on.

Good evening, Ka Ador.

Buddy, how are you?

Come in. Hold on,
I'll get more chairs.

- You look beautiful.
- Stop it, Aling Fely.

Aling Belen..
Get inside, sit down.

You're wet.

- Willy, how are you?
- Is the baby coming out?

Next month.

Dindo, Tony..

- Here's the chair.
- Thank you.

I'm fine.
I'll just sit here.

- So. What's going on?
- Did you eat already?

Don't bother, Luz.
This will be quick.

Besides, you can't feed us all.

These people eats too much.

- How's everything at work?
- Well, that is why we're here.

It's been a while..
Like six months?

That's right.

We haven't seen you for some time.
Your bump speaks the obvious!

What's the news, Ka Ador?

Why, Turing?
Didn't you hear anything?

Why? Is there anything
we should know about?

Turing,

Our situation in the printing press
isn't a news to you, right?

Yes.

The workers talk over drinks

about their grievances
with the company.

We think something needs to be done

aside from discussing our grievances.

It's time to take action.

Change will only be possible
if we, the workers,

will unite, will bond together.

That way, we can fight
for our rights.

I never thought delivering a speech
could be this hard.

He's holding it.

I'll be straightforward, Turing.

We are

organizing a union.

And we would like

you to join us.

Here's the membership form.

We can't recruit you, Luz,

because you're on leave.

It's a pity. I'd like to join
if it's possible.

Don't worry, Turing.
Mr. Lim doesn't know about it.

Ah. We will recruit more.

We will go house to house.

We will ask every employee
so we can get their support.

We will make sure

that those who signed
to be members

will mostly be made up
of employees.

Because,

if Mr. Lim and Hugo
finds out about the union,

they'll try to stop it.

That is why we can't be
in the open yet.

This is still a secret.

Ka Ador,

it's no longer a secret.

Mr. Lim knows about this.

He knows? Mr. Lim?

Yes. He's the one
who told me about it.

It's me who is not even aware.

What I'm not sure of
is if he knows

who the leaders are.

But he knew for certain
that it's being organized.

That bastard has a strong radar.

Maybe there's a rat
in your group, Ka Ador.

Or maybe someone
who talks too much.

We now need to
speed up our recruitment.

So Turing, are you in?

Er..

Ka Ador,

you know me.
I feel the same way like you do.

If there's one who should join first,
it will be me.

My wife's at a disadvantage.

But..

I hope you'll understand me.

Luz is pregnant.

- If I lose my job..
- Turing, does that mean..

Don't worry, Ka Ador,
I won't rat you.

But I cannot join you.

Turing, if it's me
that you're worrying about..

You don't understand, Luz.

I already signed..

What do you call it?
Waiver?

I already signed a waiver.

Proving that I do not..

That I am not a member
of the union.

Tony.

- Tony.
- What?

Come here.

Ka Ador, have you read this?

"The following rules
is now being enforced:

It is prohibited
to have conversations

while at work,
unless it is work related.

Three lates incurred within one month

will be punished
with one week suspension."

"Those caught urinating on walls
will be fined twenty pesos."

I received that too.

Here.

Is this legal, Ka Ador?

Don't we have a lawyer
whom we can consult?

Don't worry.
I'll meet him tonight.

That can't be a policy. I have a feeling
that they're just harassing us.

That cannot be, Ka Ador.

Will you let them do that?
That's an abuse.

Willy, do you know how to read?

And you, Tony, get back to work!

We're here
to set the record straight.

Aling Viring, Pepsi please.

Here.

I'll go ahead.

Done eating, Fely?

Yes.

Bye, Ka Ador. We'll go ahead.
Let's go Chichi.

Turing..

Sorry about that.

We're talking about union matters
before you came.

For members only.

Try to understand us.

Send this quickly.
Make sure it's signed.

Okay.

Are you serious?
Feeling like a boss?

You come here
any time you choose.

Then make a deduction
to my salary.

Look at this smart-ass.

Bastard.

Here comes another one.

It's the first day of the week
and already late for work.

It's already 9 AM!

Your application in Saudi is approved,
that's why you're so bold to come late.

Why do you always pick on me?

So you're now insolent to answer!

Don't go boorish on me.

- I will fire you!
- Go ahead. Try it!

Bastard.
Are you challenging me?

- You dare me?
- Try it.

You just wait!

Bastard!

I will not fight you!

Hugo, no!

Hugo! Hugo, stop it!

- You're an asshole, Turing!
- Hugo, will you stop!

Next time, you'll be fired!

- Fuck you!
- Stop it, Turing.

- Looks like we're having fun!
- Turing. Where are you going?

- I'll just buy something.
- Have a shot first.

Okay, but just one bottle.

Go on, buddy, continue.

- Did you guys play basketball?
- Yeah, that's why we're drinking!

- Stop right there, buddy.
- Why?

You can't come in.
Hugo's order.

Why?

He said you're no longer an employee.
You're fired.

- Shit!
- Sorry. I'm just following orders.

Hugo!

Hugo! Get out of there.

Bastard!
Lim! You're a bastard too!

You can't do this to me!

I have rights!

You can't do this to me!
I have rights!

Hugo!

You animal!

Get out of there!

Animal! Hugo!

Lim!

I can sue you for this!

I'll file legal charges!

Bastards!

Get out of there!

I'll file legal charges!

Why are you all stunned?

Huh?

Get back to work!

We need to plan what to do, right?

- Let's prioritize food.
- And the supplies as well.

Correct.

- Make sure you..
- Ka Ador,

don't forget the notice of strike.

I'll handle it.
I will talk to the lawyer

so we'll know what to do.

List them all.

Who will bring it?

- What about sleeping bags?
- Who's gonna bring it?

I will bring it.

- Do you have any permit?
- Yes we do, boss.

Right here.

Stay at the side.

Tell the others
do not block the way.

Move. Move.
Don't obstruct the way.

Everybody stay at the side.

Go on. At the side.
Stay at the side.

Everybody stay at the side.

Friends,

we are calling the attention
of the military and the police.

Their loyalty should be
with the Filipino people.

They should serve the Filipino people
with honor and dedication.

We are calling them
to defend democracy.

In the end,
we are all Filipinos!

Luz would have been here.

But what can I do?
Will I get money

if I join the march?

Can demonstration
solve my problem?

This is what Mr. Lim promised:
All who will work will receive a bonus.

Especially you:
You're not a union member.

No trade unionist, no striker.

Look at me, buddy,
I am a union member

but I know that it's not right
to wage a strike.

Under the new law,

you have to file first
a notice of strike

and you cannot go on strike
immediately after.

We need to wait for 30 days

as cooling off period.

That is the requirement
of the Ministry of Labor.

When no solution is reached
within 30 days,

that's the only time
the strike can be legal.

He's hard-headed, Ka Ador,
and doesn't believe me.

Maybe they got infiltrated
by subversives

and agitators.

You're not alone on this, Turing.

It's not just us. There are others
who will also work.

What you'll do isn't illegal.
You can't be branded as scabs.

Under the new law, anyone who doesn't
want to participate in the strike

has a right to work.

He can pass through the picket line
and should not be stopped.

Turing,

the strike has gone for 3 days.
For 3 days you're not earning money.

It's all up to you.
Luz will deliver the baby next month.

Turing, I need to talk to you.

- Give me a second.
- Wait, Turing.

Talk it over with your wife.

But remember, Mr. Lim's offer
is for your own good.

- What?
- Don't tell me you'll be a scab.

Those who will work aren't scabs,
it's those who are on strike.

You believe him?

Did you talk to Ka Ador?

Did you consider their side?

What happened to you, Turing?

First, you signed the waiver
without informing me,

then, you didn't want
to join the union.

You did not participate in the strike
and now this?

- I did not make any decision yet.
- And you have to make a decision now.

Tell Hugo and Binggo, that traitor!

You're due next month, Luz.

If it's me who's troubling you,
then okay, I will beg to my father.

I will make a long distance call.
I will ask for help.

Go ahead!

I will not stop you.
Do what you want!

Why do you sound irritated?

Do you want me to not
stop you from your plans?

It's very hard
to lose a job nowadays, Luz.

You're afraid to lose your job,
but you're fine living with criminals?

Luz..

Luz, I don't mean it.

I don't mean it, Luz.
Luz..

Luz?

Luz..

Luz..

Is there no alternate route?

We'll take a shortcut. Hold on.
There are too many vehicles.

Come on, Luz.
Hang in there.

- Hang on!
- Turing..

Hang on, Luz! Hang on!

- He's forcing me to have a date..
- Miss.

- Miss.
- What?

Emergency!

Emergency?
What happened to her?

Motherfucker!
Can't you see she's bleeding?

- Don't get mad. I'm just asking.
- Where's the emergency room?

Unbelievable.
Bring her all the way there.

Where's your deposit?

Later!

- Where's the emergency room? Quick!
- End of the hallway, to the right.

- What just happened?
- I have no idea. He comes shouting.

He said it's emergency.

Turing!

How is Luz?

She's safe.

Thank God!

Your sister would like to visit
but I brought your nephew instead.

This way.

I'm sorry
but no visitor is allowed here.

Turing, how's the baby?

Caesarean.

He's only eight months

so he has to be incubated.

For how long?

Maybe two months.

Jesus..

Where will you get the money?

Let's wait for Turing.

Stop here.

- Sorry. I came from the hospital.
- Sit in front.

Hey, the delivery van is coming.

Maybe that's Hugo and he's late.

Comrades, you know the law.

Ka Ador, they have scabs with them.

Comrades, comrades!
They are scabs!

Don't let them through!
Lock arms!

- Don't let them pass!
- Hold one another!

Lock arms!

You cannot enter, motherfuckers!

Hold on. Hold on!
Let them through,

please.

What you're doing is a violation
against Labor Code.

I could've arrested you.

You don't have a permit
to stage a strike.

- But we do have a permit.
- I know. I know.

But that's not yet in effect.

According to the Ministry,
it's still cooling-off period.

So, please, don't make me angry.
Otherwise I'll arrest you all

and have you detained!

This is bullshit!
So this strike is useless?

- Go ahead, detain us if you want!
- Willy, stop it!

Major, I apologize.

He's just a junior.

Come on, please, listen to me.
Don't make me mad.

Give way.

Step aside.

Go on let them through.
Go on!

Don't make me mad!

Turing! You motherfucker!

Scab!

Traitor! Traitor! Traitor!

Traitor!

Traitor!

When the paper flips over, push this.
Then make another round.

Understood?

You press here, you turn here.

- There. Now it runs smoothly.
- Yes, sir.

What's that? It's mangled.

Fix that.

Yes, sir.

Turing!

Turing!

Give this to Hugo.

Tell him it's urgent.

It's good that you didn't think

of joining the strikers outside.

It's good that you used
your brain this time.

Go ahead, eat!

Did you know

that Mr. Lim is planning
to give you all a bonus.

Look at those people outside.
Turing, those people

will starve
and will not get any bonus!

With everything that is happening,

my blood pressure will surely go up.

Tomorrow,
Hugo will supervise you.

I plan to go on a vacation
with Mr. Lim together with the kids.

The kids are neglected
and isn't attending school.

Hey, Binggo, come.

Senyang, Constancia,

you two will prepare their food
while I'm gone.

My country is the Philippines,

land of gold and flowers.

Love in the palm of her hands,

giving

beautiful virtue.

In it's modesty and beauty

foreigners became interested.

My country,

you're subjugated

plunged into despair.

Birds that are free to fly,

cage them and they will cry.

What more of a country so pure

that it would not desire
to be free.

My treasured Philippines,

home of my tears and torment.

My dream is

to see you free.

What's up?

How sweet it is to live

in your own country,

where no one is a slave

and where there is freedom.

My country in chain

will rise tomorrow.

The East will shine red

in the sweetness of freedom.

Binggo! Binggo, wait!

Where are you going?

- I quit. I'm going home.
- Why?

I can't stand it anymore!

Binggo!
What are you doing?

Stop! They will kill you!

Stay here!

You coward!

Leave him alone, Hugo!

Hugo!

Tony, Rey, look:

jeeps are coming.

The headlights are off.

Willy, wake up!

Wake up!
All of you, wake up!

Go on!

Now, set them on fire!

- Turing! Turing!
- Motherfucker!

Turing, there is a commotion outside.
Ka Ador..

Make way!

Animal!

Motherfuckers!

Motherfuckers, fuck you all!

Back off! Back off!

Cowards!

Come back here! Cowards!

Ka Ador!

Ka Ador!

Ka Ador!

The Filipinos are in line
to fight injustice and repression.

- Give my regards to Luz.
- Will do. It's okay.

Are you sure, buddy?
Am I forgiven?

Forget it, my friend.
I told you it's fine.

We may not see each other again.

Is your application
in Saudi approved?

No. Forget that.

I will return to the province,
in Samar.

You take care. Bye.

Do you have this?

Hold on.

We don't have it.

- Try the other store.
- Okay.

How much?

156.40 pesos, sir.

Is it possible..

to get half of each?

Yes, sir.

Is he okay?

He's really fine?

- He's not coming back to the incubator?
- Not anymore.

Baby..

- He takes after his father.
- He's already sleepy. Maybe later.

I want to cuddle him.

- I saw Willy earlier.
- How is he?

He's fine but he'll go back
to their province.

I thought they will file charges
against Lim.

I forgot to ask.

That Mr. Lim is clever.

Anyway, that's the tactic
of the capitalists:

They will close the company
when in strike.

When the situation cools off
and the strikers get disheartened,

they will open again,

but with a different name.

It's not your problem anymore, Luz.

What about
Aling Fely and the others?

They should push the case.

It may take a long time
but in the end they may win.

That's not your problem anymore.

We have things we need to deal with.

Here. Your medicines.

I bought only half of each
because we don't have money.

Here's another problem.

- What's this, ma?
- Hospital bill. Everything's there:

anesthesia,
doctor's fee, dextrose.

Turing, don't worry.
I will write to father.

Don't worry,
he will forgive us..

maybe.

I hope for the sake
of his grandchild.

- Turing.. Turing!
- Where are you going?

- Where's the chart of Mrs. Reyes?
- Let me see. Here, doctor.

- Er.. miss..
- Yes?

Can I take my wife
and my baby home?

Name?

Manalastas.

- Manalas...
- Luz Manalastas.

The one whose baby got incubated.

Manalastas, yes.
Wait a second.

She's ready for discharge.

Did you pay your bill already?

Er..

The problem is..

not yet.

You have to pay first.
The cashier is on the ground floor.

Go there and pay your bill.
They will give you discharge slip.

Then return here so I can sign it.

You need to show the slip to
the guards before you leave.

Miss..

Er..

The problem is..

I have no money to pay.

Er..

Can I get them out of here
then I will pay later?

It's not possible.

That's not the policy here.

No hospital has that kind of policy.

But, miss, the thing is,

the longer they stays here,
the higher the bill will be.

What's the problem?

He wants to bring home his wife
but has no money to pay.

There's nothing I can do.

Sir, we really cannot do anything.

That is the policy here:
you have to pay first.

- We're just following the policy.
- What if I don't have the money?

We're just a nurse here, mister.
There's nothing we can do.

Maybe it's better that you go
to the director,

the director of the hospital,
Dr. Santos. Talk to him.

Where can I find him?

You go straight down,
then you turn left.

Thank you.

Miss, where can I find Dr. Santos?

His office is right there
but he's on leave. Why, sir?

I'd like to talk about this.

Oh.. Manalastas?

Yes,

I'll ask him if I can bring
my wife and baby home.

Because I can't pay that in full.

We don't have that policy here.

It's better if you talk to the
officer-in-charge, Dr. Fernandez.

Where can I find him?

Go straight then turn left
to the Administrator's office.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Miss..

- Where is Dr. Fernandez?
- He's not here.

- Where is he?
- He's doing his round

but he'll be here.
Please sit down first.

- Dr. Fernandez?
- Yes?

Good afternoon, Doc.
Can I talk to you for a while?

Come in.

What's up?

It's about Luz Manalastas,
my wife.

The one whose baby got incubated.

Oh, yes.

They're staying here
for almost two weeks already.

The longer they stay,
the higher the bill gets.

Of course.

What do you want?

I would like to ask

for permission
to take them home.

Then I will pay the bill
later gradually.

Mr. Manalastas,

please understand us.

This is a private hospital.

We do not receive any subsidy
from the government.

The hospital needs
to make money,

so we can continue
servicing the patients.

Now if there are patients like you
who will not pay..

I will pay, Dr. Fernandez,
I'm not a charlatan.

You can make me a promissory note
and I will sign it now.

All I want is to take home
my wife and the baby

because the bill gets higher
as they stay here.

Mr. Manalastas,

I cannot change
the policy of the hospital

just to accommodate you.

So please, understand us.

I will pay the bill
little by little.

If you want, I can work here
even without salary

until everything is paid.
Dr. Fernandez, please listen to me.

Mr. Manalastas,
we're not an employment agency.

We cannot do that.

Dr. Fernandez, you're needed
at the emergency room right away.

I'll be right there.
Excuse me.

Dr. Fernandez, wait.
Listen to me.

Doc, I'm begging you.

Listen to me.

I'm not a swindler.
Dr. Fernandez, listen to me..

Guard, hurry up!

I'm begging you.
Please be considerate. I will pay.

- Hey, let's go.
- I'm talking to the doctor.

Stop it, mister!

I can't change the hospital policy
just to accommodate you.

Doc, please wait.

Wait!

Doctor! Doctor!

Stop!

Stop it!

I am only asking..

Because..

Where's the baby?

Back to the nursery.
Where have you been?

I went to the administrator.

I asked them if I can take
both of you home.

Then?

Nothing.

They didn't approve it.
They said I have to pay.

Dress up.
Ma, help Luz to dress up.

- Why? Where are we going?
- We'll escape.

- What about the baby?
- We will take him too.

The jeep is outside.
Ma, help her.

Turing. No. Not this way.

There is no other way, Luz.
Come with me. We'll leave.

BP check, Mrs. Manalastas.

Good afternoon.

Are they following me up to here?

Why are you following me?

Mr. Manalastas,

we're just doing our job.
We're just following orders.

Turing, where are you going?

Do a miracle.

- Turing!
- Turing!

Here we go again.

Why did I take this road?

Go on. Make some noise and
you'll probably be noticed.

Miracle..

How does one perform a miracle?

Boss.. Good evening.

- Is Dhalee here?
- She's no longer here.

Do you have an idea
where she transferred?

Try to ask the other dancers.
They might know where.

Thanks.

Hurry up, Carla.

Carla..

- Who are you? Leave me alone!
- Wait, Carla.

They say you're Lando's new girl?
Lando Bonoan?

I do not know any Lando.
Let me go!

Don't deny it, Carla.

Lando's old pals
told me everything

and friends of his ex-girlfriend too.

Believe me, Carla,

I'm Lando's friend.
We grew up together.

I'm not a cop.
I won't put you in trouble.

- I really need his help.
- I told you I don't know him!

Let me go.
How did you get here?

You bitch! You'll bring me
to Lando. Move!

Wait!

- Are you here to make trouble? Huh?
- Stop it! Stop it!

Carla, I am not looking for any trouble.
I just need Lando's help.

Who are you with?

He said he's a friend of Lando.

Is he alone?

Yeah.

Let's go.

Hello, Carla.

- Buddy, how are you?
- Hello, Boy.

Where's Lando?

Hey, sweetheart.

Turing!

How are you?

I'm okay.

Were you properly introduced
to my new sweetheart?

- Yeah. A while ago.
- This is Carla.

She's a high quality chic, buddy.

You're looking for me, why?

Why?

Nothing, Ma.

What about Turing?
Has he returned?

Not yet.

Turing..

Boss..

What else?

That one.

Turing..

- There are cops outside.
- Move back.

Boss, there are cops outside.

Go. Hurry!

Boy, there are cops.

Let's go!

What are you waiting for?
Downstairs.

Jimmy!

There's a backdoor!

Let's go!

Take this.

Open it.

Hurry! Close the door!

Lock it up!

Let's go!

Slow down..

Turing..

Upstairs!

But..

- What about Boy?
- There's nothing we can do.

He'll just slow us down!

Boss..

- Don't leave me.
- We'll all die if we don't!

- Boss..
- Some bullets. You're on your own.

- Boss Lando..
- Turing, come here!

Turing, don't leave me.

Turing, what are you doing?
Let's go!

Turing, don't leave me.

Let's go!

- Turing..
- Sorry, Boy.

Stay where you are.

I'm the owner here.
I am Mr. Lim, the owner here.

Sir, what happened?

- There was a shootout inside.
- Shootout?

Take cover!

Take cover!

- What about my wife and my kids?
- I don't know.

Get out!

Go to the living room.

Move!

Hurry!

Stay at the sofa!
Hurry!

Sit down!

Sit down!

Turing..
Why Turing?

I didn't do anything wrong!

Go on!

To the living room!

- What did we do?
- Go on!

Sit down!

Turing, the window.

Have mercy..

Be quiet!

Silence!

Stop!
Don't move closer!

Or I will kill her!

We have hostages inside!

Including children!

Don't force your way in! Tell the others
to not enter the house

or we'll kill everybody here!

Stay where you are!
Close the gate!

Close the gate
or I will kill her!

Go away!

And remember:

I'm dead serious!

Move away.

Listen everybody.

Be careful with this operation.

Do it as planned.

- Is that clear?
- Yes, sir.

Your troop will go here.

And yours, here.

Adjutant, if you want
I can lead them backdoor.

- I know this place.
- Alright. Go ahead.

As we continue our live report

about the hostage drama
which started at two in the morning,

here, at the Jefferson Printing Press.

The authorities granted the
demand of the suspects

that we'll be allowed
to get inside the house of Mr. Lim.

We can report about the conditions
of the hostages

that includes the wife, two children
and two house helpers.

Arturo Manalastas, a former worker
of the printing press..

It's Turing..

will give us an account about..

Turing, are there anything else?

They should let my wife and my baby go!
They did nothing wrong.

Also..

Also..

The workers who went on strike here,

why is the case still pending?

When will it end?

They have to decide on the case.

They should..

give justice
to the strikers here!

They should..

The government should give
them jobs..

all of us!

All I ask for

is a decent job,

so that I can get my wife
and my baby out..

so I can pay the hospital.

Also..

So that..

he should be..

incarcerated!

Mr. Lim should be incarcerated
without eating,

then he will know
what a worker is going through.

They should give us...

amnesty,

- me and my colleagues.
- Enough!

- Enough, stop it!
- And..

What are you talking about?

What we need is a vehicle

so we can escape.

Give us a safe pass!

That's all our safety,

in exchange of the safety
of the hostages.

Not with all this bullshit!

We are again here outside
in front of the Jefferson Printing Press

where the hostage drama
is taking place.

A while ago, we were inside
the house of Jefferson Lim

and got an exclusive interview

with the suspects,
Arturo Manalastas,

a former employee of the printing press,
and his two companions..

Do you know Turing Manalastas?

Not quite.

I saw him once.

You're not around
when it happened?

No, no.

So where were you then?

We were at..

Where were we?

We had a late dinner.

Miss, how long have you known
Lando Bonoan?

Barely two months.

To continue our report,

we will interview the former workers
of the printing press.

Your name please?

Mrs. Felicia Ramos, sir.

Aling Fely, according to what
we have learned,

you are a former official
of the union..

I was the vice-president.

And one of the hostage taker
is a member of your union?

No. Not Turing.

He did not even join in our strike.
But Turing is a nice guy.

If Arturo Manalastas
is a nice guy,

what do you think made him steal
and take hostages?

I think

what he is asking for..

is the same thing
that we want here.

A little justice.

What?
Louder please.

A little justice, sir.

You, where are you going?

- My husband is inside.
- He's my son.

Who among them?

One of the hostage taker.

- Reyes, accompany them.
- Come with me.

- Eat.
- I don't want that. I want rice!

That's Luz.

- Who is she?
- Turing's wife.

We have learned that the wife
of Turing Manalastas is here.

Sir, this is the wife
of Arturo Manalastas.

I am his wife.
I would like to talk to him.

Please stay here for a while.

We'll call his attention.

Give that to me.

Arturo Manalastas,

listen carefully.

Your wife and your mother
are here.

They'd like to talk to you.

I repeat:
Arturo Manalastas,

your wife and your mother
are here.

They'd like to talk to you.

Here, you can talk to him now.

Turing..

Turing,

this is Luz, Turing.

I beg you, Turing,

listen to me.

What you're doing
is not right, Turing.

You don't have to do this.

You have to surrender, Turing.

Just do this for me.

And for the sake of our baby.

Turing, please, answer back.

Answer back, Turing.

Turing.

Turing, my son,

this is your mother.

Surrender yourself, my son.

For my sake and your family,
surrender yourself.

What you are doing
is a grave sin against God.

Turing,

you don't have to do this.

I already wrote to my father.

I already wrote him.

I'm just waiting for their answer.

But I'm sure,
they will help, Turing.

I'm sure of it.

I will go inside.

I will come to you, Turing.

Buddy, no!

Don't let her get in.
Tell her it's not possible.

- You have to think, Turing.
- But we let the media people in.

It was you who let them in.
It was you who wanted to be a star.

Motherfucker..

Okay. Okay. I agreed to it.
We took chances.

I'd like to talk to you.

Let me in.

I'd like to talk to you.

It's only a bait, buddy.
So that you'll go soft.

Nothing can stop me.

This could be the last time
that I'll see her.

Buddy, she wants you to surrender.
You heard it?

It's only a bait!

I beg you.

Whether you like it or not,
I will come to you.

Everybody. Stand by.

Be careful.

Please, don't follow her.

Right now,

Mrs. Luz Manalastas is about
to enter the printing press.

She's headed for the place where are
her husband, Turing Manalastas,

the other suspects..

and the hostages.

Luz Manalastas, also a former worker
of the printing press,

will try to talk his husband
to surrender..

Turing,

open the door.
I beg you.

Hold this.

Let me in, Turing.

Come here!

Stand up!

I said stand up!

Turing, open the door!
Move out!

Go outside!

Listen!

Listen carefully!

I'm armed!

I have a hostage!

If this is a trick,
I will blow Mrs. Lim's brains out!

- You hear me?
- Please remove the gun..

Turing,

for the sake of our child..

I did this

for your sake.

And for the sake of our child.

Have you gone mad?

Let's give ourselves in, buddy.

The officer said
there's nothing we can do.

Might be the case for you.
How about me?

If you don't want to,
that's fine with me. But as for me..

You motherfucker..

We came in here together.
we'll get out together.

Listen Lando..

- Stay out of this!
- For the sake of our child!

That's my wife!
Don't touch her!

Help!

No, don't. Don't..

Turing, please, don't..

The two children of Mr. Lim are now
safe outside the printing press

embraced by their father,

as well as the two house helper.

Also at this moment, Luz Manalastas,
the wife of Turing,

is being escorted out
and is welcomed by her mother-in-law.

They are crying
while tightly embracing one another.

Later, we'll try
to hold an interview

to get information
on what happened

inside the printing press
and the house of Mr. Lim.

Meanwhile, we'll try to..

Turing Manalastas is also being escorted

Bastard! Fuck you!

Turing!

Turing!

There's a commotion and a shooting
here, outside of the printing press.

We can see the body
of Turing Manalastas

full of blood lying down
on the side of the building.

Meanwhile, the people outside
are in chaos

because of what happened.

The police are trying to stop
the crowd and the media people

from getting near the area.

We can see right now

the body of Turing Manalastas
being cradled by her wife

who continuously cries for
the death of her husband.

Meanwhile, relevant to
what happened here,

according to the information we got.
