[♪THEME MUSIC PLAYING]

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

The whole university is excited about our return.

[CHUCKLES] Good job, girls!

Good job!

[♪PLEASANT MUSIC PLAYING♪] Especially you, Eden.

You did great in Davao!

Thank you.

You made us all proud!

You're the best!

You have a great chance

to be part of the Philippine swimming team next season!

I'm so jealous!

Aren't you happy, Eden?

I'm happy, Coach. [♪SENTIMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING]

I just feel bad that my mom didn't see me win.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

How is the appeal going?

We're still waiting for the result.

Sometimes...

[SIGHS]

I feel like I'm losing hope.

My mom's been in prison for 8 years now.

We've been waiting for 8 years.

I don't know if she'll ever get out of prison.

Or when she'd get out. [♪SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]

Don't lose hope, Eden.

God listens to all our prayers.

You have to stay strong for now.

All your dreams will come true for you and your mom.

Smile.

Thank you, Coach.

[MISS VINLUAN CHUCKLES]

Get some rest.

You, too.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

This is your Captain speaking.

I would like to welcome you all aboard this flight

going to Manila.

Our flight time is approximately one hour and fifteen minutes.

Here, Mom. Take your meds.

So your wounds will heal.

Thank you, Dear. [♪SENTIMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING]

For your safety,

please keep your seatbelts securely fastened

whenever you are seated.

And in the meantime, please sit back and relax.

Enjoy the flight.

Thank you.

[♪SENTIMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING]

Raichu, I'll just use the restroom.

Okay.

[THUNDER RUMBLING] [♪FOREBODING MUSIC PLAYING]

[WIND HOWLING]

[BOOMING] [ELECTRICITY CRACKLING]

[CRACKLING CONTINUES]

[♪INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

Eden?

Raichu, where's Yenyen?

I don't know!

Yen!

Mayday!

Flight 1884.

We have an engine problem.

Let's pray!

Lord, Lord!

Please help us, Lord!

Squawk 7700.

Everyone, basic position!

Put your hands here... [PASSENGERS CLAMORING]

Heads down. Stay down!

Your life vest is under the seat!

Heads down! Stay down!

[PASSENGERS CLAMORING]

Mayday!

[PASSENGERS EXCLAIMING]

[PANTING]

Preparing for an emergency landing.

[♪INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING♪]

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

[PASSENGERS CLAMORING]

Preparing for an emergency landing.

Squawk 7700.

[♪INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

Let's see...

if this will look good on you.

Oh, dear! [♪PLEASANT MUSIC PLAYING]

It looks great on you, Yenyen!

Come on, Mom.

Why do you keep calling me Yenyen?

Why not?

You'll stay as my baby even when you're older.

[CHUCKLES] Mom!

Yes! [LAUGHTER]

But Mom,

this is too nice.

Don't you like it?

Of course, I like it.

But...

this looks expensive.

It really is expensive.

What?

Yes.

But you're more precious!

- [SMOOCHES] - [CHUCKLES]

Mom!

[GIGGLING]

I was your age when your grandmother gave this to me.

She inherited it from my grandmother.

And now you're the rightful owner of this necklace.

Look, I have them engrave your name on it.

Because it's all yours.

And no one else can have it.

Take care of it.

That's your advance birthday gift.

Okay.

Thank you, Mom.

I will wear this all the time.

To remind me of you.

Especially now that you're leaving soon.

Are you really going to leave?

Yes.

We already talked about this, right?

Don't worry, I'll be here on my day off.

But Mom, you'll only be home once a week.

It feels like you're going abroad.

But I have to do it. [♪SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]

I have to work for your college.

Do you think our life would be different if Dad was here?

Eden, I love your dad.

But he left us since you were little.

It hurts and is hard to accept, but I'll stay strong for you.

To make all your dreams come true.

And all my dreams for you.

Thank you, Mom.

I'm just sad you have to be away just to make money.

We have to make a little sacrifice.

Right?

We'll get through this.

Can you stop pestering me, Amanda?

I don't care how long you've been asking for a day off.

I already told you that you can't have a day off today.

You have to watch Angelo.

Mom, I'm okay.

Let her have a day off.

Angelo, she doesn't have a say on this.

The answer is no.

Anyway, I have to go.

I'm gonna go see your dad and your brother

before they leave for the airport.

Don't you want to come with me?

I'll just call dad to say goodbye.

I'll just wait for you here.

Okay, if that's what you want.

Keep an eye on him, okay?

I'll go ahead.

Take care.

Bye.

Bye.

[♪HEAVY MUSIC PLAYING]

[ENGINE STARTS]

Sorry, Eden.

You have to see that.

It's okay, Mom.

We can't do anything about it.

Let's just celebrate on Saturday, okay?

But...

can I stay here for a little while?

Angelo, can she stay here for a little bit?

She'll go home later.

It's fine with me.

Just don't let my mom see her.

You know how she is.

Thank you.

Okay.

Happy birthday, Yenyen!

[LAUGHS]

Come on, let's eat the noodles together.

Okay. [CHUCKLES]

You have to go home now.

I don't want you to be outside late at night.

But Mom, I still want to spend time with you.

It's my birthday anyway.

Let me spend time with you as a gift.

You're so sweet.

[CHUCKLES]

I promise that I will do everything

to give you a comfortable life.

I will work hard for us to have a better life.

So you won't have to work like this.

Just work hard for your future.

So you won't become a maid like us.

[♪MELLOW MUSIC PLAYING]

[♪OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]

I'm glad you're here.

I need to get something in the quarters.

I just need to get my things.

I thought you got all your stuff already.

Why do you need to come back here?

And you can't go inside because Ma'am Rina is not home.

Come on, Amanda.

I won't take long.

It's not like I'm a stranger.

You can't come in here.

Amanda, I've worked here longer than you.

But you don't work here anymore.

Don't you trust me?

No.

You're not allowed to come in.

[SNIFFS]

Who is this?

My daughter.

Wow.

Your grumpy boss let you bring her here?

Fine, I'll go with you to the quarters.

Take all your stuff and go. Okay?

Okay.

Come on.

[♪OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]

Hurry up, okay?

Just get your things and go.

I have a lot to do.

[♪INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

Why did you take that?

Be quiet! Or I'll hurt you!

Mom!

- Mom, he took something! - Be quiet!

What did you take?

- Stay out of it! [EXCLAIMS] - Mom!

- [THUDS] - [GRUNTS]

Mom! [AMANDA COUGHING]

Mom!

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

Mom, are you okay?

[COUGHING]

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

Raul!

No!

[TIRES SCREECHING]

[♪SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]

[TIRES SCREECHING]

Angelo!

Angelo!

[SOBBING]

Angelo!

[WAILING]

You're a monster, Raul!

[WAILING]

Angelo!

[AMANDA WAILING]

You need to come with us to the police station

to get your statement.

Can I bring my daughter home first?

No, Ma'am.

You need to come with us.

Go home?

Who's going home?

You're not going anywhere! [EXCLAIMS]

[CLAMORING]

Bring her to the police station!

Take her!

You are Raul's accomplice!

You planned this together!

- You killed my son! - I have nothing to do with it!

Take her to the station!

She's a criminal!

Murderer!

- You killed my son! - I didn't do anything wrong!

Let go of me!

- Please, calm down. - Let go of me!

- Put her in jail! - I didn't do anything wrong.

Put her in jail!

She will rot in there!

You killed my son!

[WAILING] You did this with Raul!

[♪INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

Whereof, the court finds the accused, Amanda Sta. Maria,

guilty beyond reasonable doubt [♪HEAVY MUSIC PLAYING]

as accomplice to the crime of robbery with homicide

as defined and penalized under the revised penal code.

So ordered. [THUMPS]

Why did this happen?

My mom didn't do anything wrong!

Please don't take her from me, I'm begging you.

[WAILING] She didn't do anything.

Eden, we can't do anything about it now.

Come on, Eden.

Stop.

[WAILING] You didn't do anything wrong, Mom!

Can I say goodbye to her before you take me away?

Mom!

- I can't let this happen. - I love you so much, Eden.

Mom!

[WAILING]

Dindi, take care of my daughter.

[WAILING]

Don't take my mom away!

She didn't do anything wrong! [WAILING]

[♪INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

That's what you deserve!

Justice is served!

Mom!

Mom, stay with me!

Mom, don't leave me!

She didn't do anything wrong! [WAILING]

Mom, don't leave me!

[WAILING]

You come here almost every day.

This isn't right anymore.

[♪HEAVY MUSIC PLAYING] You have to think of your own life too.

And you're dragging your aunt here with you.

Mom...

why did this happen?

I told them the truth.

Why didn't they listen to us?

Because when you're poor...

you have no rights.

That's why I want you to go to college.

So you'll have a better life.

That's the only way they'll listen to you.

You don't deserve to be here, Mom.

We can't do anything about it.

It already happened.

We don't have a choice but to accept it.

But I can't let you waste your life worrying about me.

No!

No, Mom.

I'll come to visit you on the weekends.

I promise.

You can't visit me anymore.

Why not?

Your mom and I have made a decision, Eden.

We will move to the countryside for now.

I found a job there and the cost of living is cheaper there.

Your aunt will still be able to send you to school.

Mom!

I don't want to!

Eden, listen to me.

Your future is more important.

My life is ruined now. [♪DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

I won't let your life fall apart, too.

But Mom, I don't want to be away from you.

Eden, I love you so much.

I love you so much too.

I love you so much.

Go on. You should go.

Yes, Amanda.

- Mom! - We'll go.

Go on. Leave.

Mom!

Eden, come here!

- Mom! - Eden!

Don't do this to me!

- Don't make me go. - No.

- Mom! I don't want to go! - Yenyen, come on!

Mom, no!

Mom, I don't want to go!

Don't be stubborn!

Eden.

Go on.

Go home.

I'll take care of her.

Come on, let's go.

- Let's go home. - Auntie, no!

Come on, Eden.

Let's go home. [WAILING]

Mom! [WAILING]

I want to stay here.

Eden!

Mom!

I don't want to go!

What are you doing?

Are you not going to listen to me?

You have to be strong!

Nothing will happen to you if you stay with me!

Do you understand?

Think about yourself.

Your future!

[WAILING]

Go on.

Auntie, I don't want to go!

- Mom! - Eden, come on!

Let's go home.

Come on.

We have to go home.

I don't want to!

Come on, let's go home! Let's go.

Let's go.

- Mom! - Let's go home! [EDEN WAILING]

Let's go home!

[♪SENTIMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING]

Dear Mom...

Aunt Dindi and I are doing fine here in the province.

How are you doing?

I always think about you, Mom.

And I remember all your advice.

I always think about my future whenever I'm in a competition,

just like you always say.

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

Even though you're not by my side,

I dedicate all my achievements to you, my beloved mother.

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

Mom!

I didn't know you were coming here.

I wanted to surprise you.

Because I have good news.

From now on, Aunt Dindi and I are staying here in Manila.

How come?

[CHUCKLES]

Your daughter is a swimmer, remember?

I got a scholarship.

So I'm going to continue my studies here. [CHUCKLES]

Aunt Dindi got herself a decent job here.

So we're closer to you.

Eden... [CHUCKLES]

One more thing.

I talked to your lawyer.

I asked him about our appeal.

He said there's a good chance of acquittal.

It's been years since we made an appeal.

I'm losing hope.

Mom, don't talk like that.

We can't lose hope in fighting for the truth.

Mom, you'll get out of here someday.

And we will be together again.

I missed you.

I missed you more.

[CHUCKLES]

OMG, Eden!

Tracy's inviting us to go to her Uncle's bar.

We're coming.

I'll count you in, okay?

Wait, I can't go.

Why not?

I have work, remember?

But it's on Saturday!

You only work part-time, right?

One of the servers can't go to work tomorrow.

So I'll stand in for her.

I can't pass up that extra income.

I'll use the money for our sports camp in Davao.

Eden, whenever you're not busy at school, you have work.

When you're off work, you have to do sports.

How are you going to get a boyfriend if you don't mingle?

I don't have time for a boyfriend, okay?

And we shouldn't look for a boyfriend.

It will come.

[♪LIGHT MUSIC PLAYING]

[EXCLAIMS]

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

Sorry.

What in the world? [♪LIGHT MUSIC PLAYING]

It was an accident.

I didn't mean it to happen.

If you want I'll just replace your water bottle.

No need. The goal is that way.

How did the ball get here?

This is the sidewalk.

Sorry.

I apologize, okay?

Let's go, Raichu.

[SQUEALS]

Eden!

What a panty-dropper!

He's so handsome!

You're overdoing it.

He's good-looking but arrogant.

Why are you so picky?

You want someone handsome and humble?

You're asking for too much. [HUFFS]

I won't waste my time on guys like him.

And I don't think he'll notice us.

Liar!

Let's go.

[♪UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

[♪INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING]

Here's your food.

Thank you.

Here you go.

Pork buns.

Enjoy your food.

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

Ma'am Rina?

Good afternoon, Ma'am.

[♪TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

Wait a minute.

I know you!

You are that kid!

[HUFFS]

You're that criminal's daughter.

Please don't say that.

It's true!

Or perhaps they don't know your background.

May I have the manager, please?

Yes, Ma'am.

What kind of restaurant is this?

Why do you hire a daughter of a convicted criminal?

Ma'am, I'm begging you.

Oh, now you're begging me?

You have the nerve to file an appeal to the court.

Did you really think the High Court would take your side?

My mom has nothing to do with the crime.

What are you talking about?

She is as guilty as hell!

That's not true.

You accused her of the crime.

That's why she's in jail.

How dare you say that! [SLAPS]

She will pay for it all her life until she becomes miserable!

I am not going to eat at a restaurant

being served by the daughter of a convict!

[♪TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

[WATER SPLASHING]

Today is my day off.

I don't care how long you've been asking me for a day off.

I said you can't take the day off today!

I will hurt you!

Mom!

Mom, he took something!

Mom!

What did you take?

- Stay out of it! - Mom!

- [THUDS] - [GRUNTS]

- Mom! [AMANDA COUGHING] - Raul!

Mom!

No!

[TIRES SCREECHING]

[WAILING]

Yeah, dude. Let's chill.

I just have to do something for Coach.

I'll see you later.

Yup, see you.

[EDEN SOBBING]

[♪DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

Miss, it's not yet the end of the world.

Just hang in there.

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

[BOTTLE CAP CLICKS]

[SOBBING]

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

How long are you going to be in Davao?

Three days.

Some of the athletes will stay to go island hopping.

But I'll go home right after our sports camp.

I hope the higher court will have a decision

about our appeal when I get back. [CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

You still haven't given up.

[CHUCKLES]

Mom, I will never give up.

We might have a moment of weakness.

We might fall down for a bit.

But we will get up and fight.

Like people always say,

never give up! [CHUCKLES]

Never give up.

[LAUGHS]

Thank you.

You're my rock. [CHUCKLES]

I love you so much, Mom.

We will fight.

Just a little bit more, and we will get justice.

And when I come back, everything will be okay.

We will go back from where we started.

[♪INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

[WATER SPLASHING]

[♪MUSIC CONTINUES...]

We're about to get the result of our appeal.

I'm going out of jail!

This is such good news!

Eden will be happy! [AMANDA CHUCKLES]

I would have lost hope if it wasn't for her. [EDEN COUGHS]

I owe her a lot!

Help!

Help!

How can they release Amanda?

Come on!

It's not fair!

Your son is coming home from Davao.

Do you want him to see you drunk?

You have to fight, Yenyen!

I want to see my mom!

Is there anyone out there?

Help!

Help!

Miss!

[SCREAMING]

Help!
