Booking (2026) Movie Script

Uh...
Payment please.
Ma, why are you still awake?
I cant sleep.
- Why? - Ive been waiting for you.
How was your trip?
I finished late.
My last passenger was headed really far.
Come here, child. Give me a hug.
Have you eaten?
Kokoy gave us some beef stew.
Good thing he parks his food cart right in front of our house.
Come on, eat some.
Ma, Ive already eaten.
How about we put it in the ref first
so you can eat it tomorrow for breakfast?
- Hm. Alright. - You should also get some rest, Ma.
Heres your medicine. Its all there.
- Ill take a bath so I can rest. - Okay, okay. Alright.
Morning.
Where's yesterday's boundary payment?
Um... I'll give it to you tonight.
I used the money to buy my moms medicine and food.
Oh... Is that so?
Such a pity.
So...
You know the rules.
Do you want to lose your house?
Ah, yes!
Aw, shit!
Ah yes, oh, shit!
Ah yes!
Ah yes!
Ah yes!
Aw, shit!
Ah yes!
Thats it!
Much better.
Yes!
Oh, shit!
Ah yes!
Oh, yes!
I'll book you again next time.
Koy, I'll take care of that.
Here's the payment.
Come on, take it.
Why won't you let me pay?
What kind of payment... would you accept?
Oh, Koy.
Thank you for checking in on mom when Im away.
Wheres the money?
Hurry up.
What is this?
Huh?
Are you messing with me?
Dont be too loud, my mom is sleeping.
I need the money! Give me your payment!
You and your mother owe me a lot of money.
From her medicine to your unpaid boundaries!
What if I throw both of you out,
and I find another driver?
Would you like that?
Youll hire a new driver?
Ah yes!
What? Ah, shit, yes!
Aw yes!
Ah yes!
Aw yes!
Aw shit!
Hm, yes!
If you hire another driver,
I won't be able to ride you anymore.
Im close!
Hey, why do you look like you've seen a ghost?
Wait, are you really okay?
Of course.
Who do you prefer sleeping with, men or women?
Both.
Honestly.
As long as I get off.
Of course women.
That's why I keep hanging out with you.
Really?
Anyway...
what happened earlier?
You suddenly shoved me away like you saw some kind of ghost.
Its nothing. I just remembered something.
What? Are you okay?
Are you really okay? Are you sure?
Why are you doing this?
Are you really happy living like this?
Doing what? Going on dates with you?
Giving extra service.
I want to save up money.
I want to get away from here.
I want to help my mom.
Why?
This car belongs to Ruben.
The bastard we owe money to.
When my mother got sick,
he helped us.
That's why our debt became so huge.
Now, every time we cant pay,
he takes advantage of me.
Why don't you report him to the police?
What he's doing is extortion.
And if your debt is money,
then money should be all you have to repay.
He has connections with dangerous people.
The moment I report him,
there's a good chance hell hurt my mother.
I never imagined that you were carrying such a heavy burden too.
But you know, even though we've only known each other for a short time,
I just want you to know that I'll always be here for you.
Take it easy.
Thank you, dear.
Why, mom?
Are you okay?
What do you mean?
Why?
As your mother, I can feel that something is troubling you.
- Ma... - Hm?
I am okay.
Whats important is you continue getting stronger.
We're almost through this. Just a little bit more.
Yes, dear. Thank you!
A while ago,
I woke up on the sofa.
Who carried me there?
Hmm...
I dont know.
Didnt you notice you fell asleep there?
Why do you keep coming home drunk?
- Ma. - Yes?
Heres your medicine.
Thank you.
- Make sure you drink them. - Yes, of course.
Here, have some of your favorite.
JANE: Are you available today? I'll book you.
Keep on eating.
Where is that?
Why did you bring me here?
This is where well have sex.
Are you being serious?
Of course Im just kidding. What do you think of me?
- Is sex all Im after? - Yes.
- Fine then. - I'm just joking.
So, why did you bring me here?
Because...
I know you had to grow up too fast.
You had responsibilities long before you should have.
So today, I don't want you thinking about anything else.
Just have fun.
Lets go!
Is this your first time at a playground?
Yes.
Lets go.
Come on, help me spread this out.
- Whats this? - There.
Go on sit. Ill do the rest.
So, did you have fun?
Yeah, it was actually really fun.
Did you forget your problems, even just for a little while?
I never thought I could.
I owe you a lot.
Here.
You don't have to pay today.
Use it for your moms medication.
- Are you sure? - Yes, Im sure.
Hm, dear?
Youre still awake?
Did you just get home?
Yes, ma. I just got back from driving.
Look at that smile.
Thats a smile of someone in love.
Ma... I'm not.
I dont have a boyfriend.
How about...
- a girlfriend? - What?
Is that okay with you?
If you have a girlfriend? Of course!
Come here.
My daughter is so beautiful.
Youre at the right age.
When you finally find the love you've been looking for,
I won't stop you. Remember that.
I just want you to be happy.
If my daughter is happy, then Im happy too.
Thank you! I love you.
I love my daughter so much.
She's so beautiful. She takes after her mother.
Of course I do!
I'll give you today's boundary later.
Gas is expensive. You know that.
The woman you were with the other day, shes beautiful.
She looks like she comes from money.
Introduce me to her sometime.
Stay away from Jane.
Surprise!
Oh, Jane!
Who are those for?
Theyre for you.
What's the occasion?
Do you like them?
Take them.
Theres more.
What's all this?
Nothing. I just wanted to give you something.
Thank you, but what's really going on?
Did you like them?
Of course.
Its just that,
no one has ever exerted this much effort for me.
You know, I still can't believe it.
Someone as beautiful as you,
someone with a body like yours,
and someone with such a kind heart.
You deserve to be cherished, Donna.
You are special to me.
Will you be my girlfriend?
Huh?
Are you sure?
I am.
But, Jane, you know I'm a prostitute.
I still have to support my mother.
I know.
Thats why Im here. Ill help you.
We'll get through this together.
Thank you!
Thank you.
- Ma! What happened? - My dear!
Where have you been? Why are you coming home just now?
The trip just took a while, Ma.
Why? What happened?
Ruben came here with three men.
They are demanding payment.
Do we still owe that much?
About 120 thousand pesos, Ma.
But I've been paying it little by little.
- My dear. - Ma.
Im scared. I'm afraid Ruben might hurt you.
Let's leave this place. Im begging you. Lets just go.
Im scared.
No, ma. I'll finish paying off this debt.
Leave everything to me. Don't worry anymore.
JANE: Can we meet up later? I miss you.
DONNA: Sorry, babe. I got booked.
Thanks.
How much longer are you going to keep doing this?
Donna, how much longer?
I dont know.
That's not an answer.
Jane, you knew from the start that Im a prostitute.
So, what?
Is this how we're going to live forever?
Am I just supposed to accept that youll keep selling yourself?
Donna, don't you think that's unfair?
Unfair.
Do you think I wanted this?
Do you think I wanted to be unfair to you?
Jane, do you think I ever wanted to become a prostitute?
Jane.
Every single night before I go to sleep,
I pray to God everyday,
that tomorrow all of this will finally be over.
That this nightmare will finally end.
But every morning, I wake up.
Shit! I'm still a prostitute.
Do you think I ever wanted that?
All the sacrifices I've made.
What about me?
What about Donna?
Jane,
I'm so tired.
I'm exhausted.
I just want to die,
so this nightmare will finally end.
Donna.
You can get through this. We'll get through it together.
I'm here now. You're not alone anymore.
You have someone beside you. You have me.
I'm so tired of being a prostitute.
This will end. I promise.
I don't want this life anymore.
Don't say that. We'll make it through.
I'm here now. You don't have to fight alone.
We'll face this together.
We got this. You have me.
Well get through this.
Sometimes I wonder,
why life isn't fair.
Why dont we live equally?
Why are some people forced to suffer?
Why do I have to do this just to survive?
No choice.
Do I really have no choice?
Or have I simply become used to living this way?
I hope one day, you'll never have to choose again.
Donna!
Donna!
What?
Shes not home?
Wheres mommy?
She's gone too?
You better not be lying to me.
Donna!
What?
Get off of me.
Shut!
Are you Donna?
Yes.
Are you headed to Rubon?
No need. We can stay here.
I read on the app,
you offer extra service.
Yes I do, but only discreetly.
Here,
suck on this.
Ma!
Are you Donna?
Please don't hurt my daughter. Im begging you!
Donna...
Is she the one who owes you money?
Is she the one who owes you?
We want our two hundred thousand.
Two hundred thousand?
I owe Ruben money. I don't owe you anything.
I'm not giving you anything.
Just pay us, and this will all be over.
I'm not giving you anything.
Is that so?
- Ma! - Dont come near!
- Please! Ill pay! - Donna!
Ma!
Ma!
Make sure you do. Because if you don't...
I'll blow your mother's head off.
Do you understand?
Ma, Im sorry.
Donna!
- Jane. - What happened?
Its Ruben.
He owes money to some dangerous men.
They're going to kill us.
Is this the debt you've been talking about?
Yes.
I don't know what to do anymore.
Donna, we're not running away.
We're going to outsmart them.
How?
What are you doing here?
I can't accept this, Koy.
Keep it!
No need.
Koy, thank you.
Thank you!
Are you ready?
Yes, ma.
I'm already by the car.
Better not be messing with me.
In the front seat?
Shit!
Shit!
Hey, roll down your windows!
- Get out of the car! - Open the doors!
Dont move. Hands up!
Keep your hands up!
- Get out of the car. - Get out! Dont move!
You! Dont move!
- Dont move! - Hands up!
Dont do anything rash.
Stop! No!
Three armed suspects were killed during a police entrapment operation
after allegedly resisting arrest
according to authorities.
Thank you!
Come on, lets eat.
Thank you!
Thank you!
Oh, Jane!
- Good morning. - Good morning, dear.
- Come here and eat. - Im alright.
Donna!
Ill just wait for Donna.
Come on. How was your drive?
It was fine. Traffic was just a little heavy.
- Drive safely, okay? - Yes, maam.
Donna!
Thank you, how about you?
Eat first before you leave.
I'm going to be late too, Ma.
- We'll get going now. - Okay, alright.
Take care.
My child, study hard.
Yes, Ma. We'll head out now.
- Ba-bye! - Bye!
Bye, Ma!
We're leaving, Kokoy.
Drive safely, Jane.
You look beautiful, babe.
- Really? - More than beautiful.
You have no idea how happy I am for you.
Thank you for everything, babe.
Lets do this later, lets go.
Ill just want more. Were already running late.
Fine.
Lets go?
