The Last Beergin (2025) Movie Script
What the heck, man?!
What the heck is your problem, dumb-ass?!
You're the bigger dumb-ass!
What did you just say, huh?
I said you're the bigger dumb-ass.
Seriously?
You're the one in the wrong lane,
yet you're the one who's upset.
Of course, I'll be in the wrong lane.
I turned the corner
to get into the bike lane,
but you cut into my lane, you moron.
You're the bigger moron!
You should be apologetic
instead of being arrogant.
- What do you want now, huh?
- Don't you dare.
- There are CCTV cams here.
- What CCTV cams?
- You're about to pull a gun on me.
- I don't have a gun.
Fuck you! I thought you had a gun.
- Hold it!
- You piss me off.
I don't have a gun!
Wait. What are you doing?
What now?!
- Hold it!
- I'll hit you.
Get out of here! Get back into your car!
Let talk about this. Calm down!
A lot of bikers get
into accidents because of...
- Get out of here! You don't wanna go, huh?
- Fine.
I'm leaving. Wait.
- Wait!
- You're pissed off again?
- Huh?!
- I said I'm sorry.
You're making my blood boil.
I'm just biking.
JUN, BRO-IN-LAW
I JUST GOT HOME. MY BROTHER IS DOING FINE
Sir, I'm getting off.
Excuse me.
What the heck? You're in my way, son.
I'm sorry.
Ouch.
What the heck?!
I'm sorry. I didn't see you coming.
It's that guy's fault, not yours.
Crazy.
Excuse me, ma'am,
but you haven't paid for that yet.
Put it on my bill along with you.
I apologize. I'll pay for it.
Tell him I'm on the phone!
What now?!
You're taking too long.
Ma'am, excuse me,
but do you have another card?
This one got declined.
Well, the transaction was not approved.
Moron! I know what "declined" means.
Another imbecile.
Give me back my card.
Who the hell was that?
This gin is mine, bro.
What do you mean it's yours?
I saw it first.
No, I got here before you.
I just checked another item.
But I reserved this one.
I don't see your name on it.
So, are you saying I'm a liar?
I didn't say that.
So, do you want us to fight over this?
Hey, why do you have to be so violent?
Boy, I don't think you know what violent
means, but you're about to find out.
- C'mon, let's settle this outside.
- Excuse me, gentlemen.
I'll check if we still have it in stock.
You don't have to fight over it.
That was you!
Jesus, why are you hitting me?
Oh, that's the last
bottle of beer and gin...
What did you do?!
You broke it. You better pay for it.
- Pay it.
- Karma.
Wait. Shouldn't you be the one
to pay for it since you caused it?
Wait.
Settle your own issue later.
How about this?
I'll take this bottle of gin.
Then I'll take that bottle of beer.
Hey you, pay for my stolen money
and mobile phone first.
What money and mobile phone?
I don't even know you. Who are you?
- What do you mean you don't know me?
- Wait.
Let me settle my thing first, okay?
I want to get drunk so badly.
Please let me.
There's lots of liquor here, bro.
Drink it all.
- Watch out for the glass shards, ma'am.
- You didn't understand,
and now I still have to explain?
I only drink a cocktail
of beer and gin, okay?
I only drink beer and gin myself.
The company that delivers those
has been on strike for weeks now.
You won't find it anymore in other stores.
Why didn't you tell us sooner?!
Well, you only asked me now!
- Look, you even broke the last bottles.
- I've been searching for a while now
This is what we'll do.
What?
Ress, the CCTV footage has been found.
Okay, for us to know who's going
to pay for the broken bottles,
let's all look at the CCTV footage.
You too, ma'am.
- Why include me?
- It's obvious that he did it.
- Let's just watch the footage.
- Follow me.
- What about my mobile phone and money?
- I'll take this.
- I really don't know who took them.
- Settle your issue first.
I'll take this. Settle your issue first.
- I'll just hold it.
- Wait, boys.
- Give it to me.
- Talk to her first.
Wait. He's right.
There, hold on a moment.
Please watch this.
See? I took it first.
Yeah, we saw it.
Aren't you going to split the tab with me?
It's your fault, too.
Do you want me to split your throat
with the glass shard?
Why are the people here so violent?
I'm violent?
I was minding my own business
when you bumped into me.
- But I did not mean to...
- Let's settle this first, okay?
- Miss, here's my suggestion.
- Yes?
I'll pay for this beer first.
Don't take the gin
off your inventory count.
Definitely not.
- Put it on my tab for now.
- Oh, no.
We can't do that!
Why should we pay for it?
We don't drink
because we can't afford it.
Then you want us to pay
for the bottles you broke?
Actually, I shouldn't be
the one to pay for it...
You better pay
for the two bottles you broke.
I dropped it when she screamed.
She should pay for it.
- Who?
- Her.
I have nothing to do with you. Duh.
Duh. Your scream made me drop the bottle.
Cause I'm waiting
for my dad's money transfer.
- What the hell?
- Fine, let's wait for your dad's reply.
That's not sure.
Just pay for it.
You broke two bottles.
Excuse me. How much is it?
There you go! Thank you.
Any amount will do.
You're the new-generation hero.
It's settled then.
I'll take care of it.
I'm just waiting
for my mom's money transfer.
- Better to pool all your cash.
- That's okay.
List down what else is needed.
Come home right now!
We got the letter from your school,
so come home now,
You fend for yourself.
Dad! Dad?! There goes my dad again.
Hey!
- Wait!
- Hey!
- Hey!
- What's that?
Hey!
Wait. Calm down.
You should be grateful
they only made you settle your bill.
You better leave before
they file a complaint against you.
Like on what grounds?
Shut up. You'll only make things worse.
Go. And don't ever come back.
Because you're just a watchman, you know.
I can call a lawyer.
Sir.
You're so stubborn!
Oh wow, speaking English now, huh?
POLICE
How about me?
I only got involved because of you.
I'm sorry.
You talk too much.
Do you plan to share
that gin with us, bro?
This one? Sure.
Alright. Let's go.
Hey, we're going with you.
We paid for that gin, too.
What do you mean "we"?
Only he paid for it.
What? He paid for it because of me.
He like simps for me.
Sandy, I'll take you home. Your parents
might be worried about you.
I want them to worry.
But we don't know these people.
They don't look sus to me.
Just follow me. You talk a lot.
Do you really have
no plans to pay me back?
I really don't have money.
Any amount will do.
I really don't have any.
But you have money to pay for that.
That was my last.
I'm not liking this. It's so far.
You better not take us
to a dangerous place.
Excuse me. I would not even dare.
Then why is it so far?
You think it's far?
Do you have money for cab fare then?
None, right?
Then this is the cheapest route.
- Is it safe there?
- Completely safe.
No one will hold us up
and take our money there.
Aren't your parents looking for you?
I told them I'm going out today.
As for me, I'm practically
an orphan now, so
Oh, that was fast.
But you were waiting for your dad's
money transfer earlier, right?
Like it was easy-peasy, right?
- Hey, that's enough!
- That's exactly what you deserve.
You're such a slut.
That's enough.
You're a slut!
Here we are.
There.
I thought we're going
to a bar or something.
What bar?
Do you have the budget to go to one?
You don't even have money to pay
for your napkin and chips earlier.
Hey.
Bar, my foot.
Aunt Nori!
I'm here. Come in.
- Hold on. Okay.
- I'll take care of you all.
C'mon.
- Aunt Nori.
- What is it?
You know, the usual.
Geez! Angel, you're always
on your mobile phone!
You're acting so sluggish.
- Move faster!
- Hi, Angel.
Work over there.
- What?
- The usual. Give us a drink.
Get your bottle.
We brought our own.
- May I have a drink of water?
- Yeah, sure.
Order finger food, so I can make money.
- Okay.
- We'll have spicy hot dog
and chips then.
- For your sweat.
- And bring us a bottle,
ice, and a pitcher.
- Okay?
- Wow.
Thank you. Love you.
No need for the bottle. We brought some.
Just bring us a pitcher, ice, and a glass.
You should have bought gin from my store.
Well, I thought I was drinking alone.
The store clerk earlier said
there's none left. It's her fault.
What a liar.
What does she mean there's nothing left?
Do you have it in stock?
Of course. I'm a shrewd store owner.
Hey, you still owe me from last time.
Madam, I never forget my debt,
so just put it on my tab.
Scout's honor.
Why start a fight earlier
when there was stock here all along?
Well, I didn't know
Aunt Nori is a hoarder.
Don't mind him. He's like that.
Oh well, I'll leave you now.
Aunt Nori, bring us some chips.
- Got it.
- Thanks.
Let's start. What do you want?
What are the options?
Pick one. Expired or Kisay.
What's the difference?
Expired is beer, gin,
ice, and menthol mint.
So, which?
Shall we have Expired then?
Since when was liquor
ever safe for the body?
No, I mean the glass.
The alcohol will sterilize the glass,
if that's what you mean.
Would you rather not drink?
Oops, I think we need more glasses.
It's like we pass it around.
You know, like shot-shot.
Are you mimicking me?
Yes, because you're such a snob.
Stop it. You're starting to disgust me.
- Take it easy.
- Where's the menthol mint?
Here.
Have some respect for a lady.
Your escort is defending you.
Sure, let's chill out first.
- Where exactly is it here?
- Hurry up.
Go faster.
I don't want to anymore. It stinks here.
Not going yet? Okay, you go ahead.
I'll go next.
It stinks so bad. Oh no, it's so dark.
NO MEN ALLOWED TO URINATE
IN THE LADIES' ROOM
It's so dark.
Go ahead. I'll wait by the door.
And there's no toilet paper.
There's no toilet paper. The floor is wet.
You know what? You complain a lot!
Why did you tag along, anyway?
You should have just checked in
at a five-star hotel.
I'm not supposed to tag along,
But why?
What's taking them so long? Pee or poop?
You're gross. Let's wait for them.
There she is! Okay, let's start.
What?
Let's wait for Sandy.
Trying to make a move on her, huh?
Your seatmate looks like
he plans to make a move, too.
He keeps looking at you, boy.
I think he likes you.
Stop that.
We're chill here.
That's what I said, too.
Do you need a paper napkin?
While drinking,
let's play a game
of getting-to-know-each-other.
Let's not. What's this? A soiree?
Indulge her.
Thanks for the vote of confidence.
- So, how do we play the game?
- It's simple.
Hurry.
Just say your name
and three things about yourself.
One of those is a lie.
The rest will guess which one.
- Got it. You start.
- Sure.
- Is this the only glass?
- Yes.
You're super sad is the lie.
So easy.
It's true.
It's obvious you're not super sad.
You're actually irritating.
Okay, next.
So, you have a boyfriend is the lie?
Hilario. Hilo (light-headed) for short.
Nice. Your name suits you.
Quit butting in.
It's my turn to play, isn't it?
I'm a junkie.
My family rejected me.
I turned my back on my family.
What's tinakwil?
Answer her, please.
Rejected.
That's the lie. Your family tinukwil you.
It's tinakwil, not tinukwil.
And that's not the lie.
You rejected your family?
Wrong.
You're a junkie is the lie?
You don't seem to believe me.
I'm an honor student.
I ran away from home.
My parents don't love me.
But you didn't same your name.
And you ran away from home is the lie?
Yes, that's right.
Obviously, you know that
because you know each other.
Hurry. Drink. It's the next person's turn.
I'm RG.
I'm jobless.
I'm angry with God.
I'm married.
I'm married is the lie.
You look more like you're jobless
than you're married.
- That's right.
- There you go.
Here.
You're next. You have no choice.
There. Do it like her.
I'm Tere.
I'm married. I'm happy.
I'm a virgin.
Ouch! That hurts.
What's so funny?
That you're a vir...
Let's stop this game.
We're just irritating each other.
Let's stop.
We don't have to hurt each other.
- Hey, it's still my turn.
- Hey.
That's enough, Sandy.
You better quit. You've had enough.
This one's starting to hit me.
- But we're still playing.
- No.
Keep pouring.
- There, you can have it.
- It's mine.
Sandy, that's enough. You might get drunk.
I'm the last person to get drunk
among my friends, okay?
My alcohol tolerance is super-high.
Here, I'm done.
- It's his turn.
- It should go round, right?
It's going too fast.
You're grouchy.
Should we let her drink,
even if she hits people?
Yeah.
- No hitting, okay?
- Okay.
Is this really how it should taste?
Don't drink it if it's not to your...
But it tastes good.
- It's my turn.
- No, it's his first.
- It should be clockwise, actually.
- Keep pouring.
You've had a lot.
It should go counter-clockwise.
- It's his turn.
- Yeah.
Follow the order.
I'll keep this order, but this girl
keeps grabbing other people's drinks.
You took so long!
I like this
Hey.
Please don't.
What are you doing? She's not a frog.
What are you doing? Keep pouring
I'm just checking if she's really asleep.
She might be dead for all we know.
- You want another shot?
- Here.
- Hey, it's my turn.
- Sure.
The order goes counter-clockwise.
CONVERSATION ON EARLY DRUNKENESS
I'll have another one.
Order some sisig and crispy pata. C'mon.
Sure. Is it on the house?
- What? No way.
- No.
Actually, we can only afford
- hot dogs for now.
- Is it your turn?
I'll make it up to you next time.
- That's too much.
- Whatever.
That's a promise.
That's too much. You can have it.
Hey, it's your shot.
You won't get drunk on chips.
I don't wanna get drunk.
You're picking on Isaac again.
Isaac, why are you here again?
I was planning to buy something.
You know what? I remember you.
We bumped into each other on the jeepney.
I was getting off,
and you were getting on it.
Did you get on the jeepney?
Wait, you met on the jeepney?
You must be the pickpocket, aren't you?
Surrender her stuff.
I'm not the pickpocket.
- I'm not like that.
- That's him.
How dare you accuse me.
But you bumped into each other.
- I told you, I'm not the one who did it.
- Hey.
- Drink.
- I was following Sandy.
That's why. So, are you courting her?
No.
But you like her?
Of course.
Look at you grin.
Why not? Are your parents strict?
You don't want to fess up
because you're afraid
you might get rejected.
Don't be like that.
Can we give him
a chance to tell his story?
It's too much again.
Well, you didn't drink earlier,
so you get two shots this time.
There, bottoms up.
We're just casual acquaintances.
We see each other in church.
We're both involved in church activities.
She's from a rich family.
They donate a lot to the church.
I get it.
Your life is like
"Bohemian Rhapsody," right?
- What?
- Huh?
Easy come, easy go
Will you let me go?
Can he continue?
You Go ahead.
The truth is The truth is
I come from a poor family.
That's why I'm reluctant to court her.
You're poor?
But you paid for stuff earlier.
You even got these two off the hook.
Don't rub it in that we didn't have money.
That was my savings for three months.
I was planning to take Sandy to Starbucks.
So, you're poor with no money,
but you saved enough to go on a date
with your crush at Starbucks?
You're really a hero.
I'm not like that.
I'm more like a Stan.
That's right. A Stan.
- What's a "Stan"?
- What's that?
What an ignoramus. It's Stan (stand) fan.
What Stan fan? It's a stalk fan.
- Stan fan.
- Stalk fan!
Ouch!
You've hit me twice already.
What's keeping you from courting her?
He's staring at you.
It's okay if you don't
wanna share it with us.
Actually, I need to enter the
Priesthood.
He needs to become a what? A prick?
A priest, you dumb-ass!
When I was born,
I wasn't breathing for two minutes.
The doctor thought I was a stillborn baby.
But then, I was revived.
I stayed in the ICU for several months.
I was in and out of the hospital.
I even turned blue on several occasions.
But I'm here now. I'm alive, right?
One time, our family
was summoned by the local priest
to bless me.
They promised that, if I survive,
they will make me enter the priesthood
to serve the church.
Is that why you were named Isaac?
The son of Moses who was sacrificed
at the mountain, right?
- Abraham.
- He was the son of Abraham.
That's what I was thinking.
I just uttered the wrong name.
That's it?
If I were you, I would tell your parents,
"You become priest and nun yourselves,
you motherfuckers!"
Hey!
Don't cuss at my parents!
No, it's unfair.
So, is that the reason
why you can't have a love life?
Well, because
Calm down. Not everyone thinks like you.
Why, how do I think?
If you know how to think.
Why are you asking us?
CERTIFIED DRUNK
We just met you.
We don't know
if you have a criminal mind or
If you're a real criminal.
Wow.
Miss Virgin is judgmental.
Stop that. You'll hurt each other again.
No, go ahead. I'm an open book.
Ask me anything.
Where's your family?
In my ass.
What?
They're having coffee. Ouch!
No, they're in their home.
Don't you live there?
Sometimes.
It's my in-laws' house,
so I try to avoid staying there.
Are you a junkie?
- You keep asking me that!
- Hey!
I'm a junkie is the lie, remember?
Wait. Time out, you two.
You haven't told us yet
which one is your lie.
That you're a virgin, is it?
Ah.
I don't wanna answer that anymore.
You're unfair.
I'll ask you instead. What's up with you?
Nothing. Nothing much.
Nothing much? Are you married?
So, are you just lovers?
Yes, but I'm the one with the problem.
What's your problem?
I don't know
What to think anymore.
Ah, I know now.
You're boating in two rivers.
Is it true?
No!
Not yet.
No?
But you're tempted to do so?
Pour me a shot.
Sure.
Drink to that.
I'm going to bed.
Go ahead, Aunt Nori.
Don't leave my store open.
Wait for me to get up.
My mistress, by the way.
You wish!
- Pay me tomorrow.
- Sure.
What do you plan to do?
See? He can't move on with your story.
What?
Nothing, I guess.
I have a question, if you don't mind.
Go ahead.
I know Sandy is pretty,
but I think manners are more important.
You're really judgmental.
Are you saying she's got bad manners?
I didn't say that.
But you're right. She's got bad manners.
She's such a spoiled brat.
Spoiled brat!
She's really like that.
- So, she's really a spoiled brat?
- But there's another side to her.
She's a really good person.
How long have you known Sandy?
We've known each other since grade school.
Were you schoolmates?
We were,
but not in the same class.
I see.
It was only for a brief period
because their family business
boomed the next year.
They got rich, so she transferred
to a private school.
I remember something
that happened when we were kids.
Sandy's neighbors used to bully me a lot.
I developed an inferiority complex.
I refused to leave our house.
But one time, I was surprised
because she defended me against them.
- Wow.
- Oh.
- She defended you?
- Yes.
Your knight in shining armor?
It's embarrassing, but it's true.
I don't get it.
So, you were the damsel in distrust?
What?
You don't know that?
It's distress.
That's what I said. Damsel in distress.
Dumbass. But wait.
What a cute story.
Does Sandy know how you feel about her?
Why not?
It's useless. I better not.
What do you mean "useless"?
You keep giving flirty glances.
You keep following her around.
That's new, huh?
Obviously.
Well, of course, who knows?
- What?
- Who knows? Maybe one day,
I'll be the one to defend her.
- Wow!
- Wow!
Could it be just pride?
Why pride?
One more?
Your male ego wants to see the day
that you get to defend her
because she defended you once.
- I don't think so.
- It could be, boy.
You're shy, but intense!
Wait.
Did you clear up with your parents
what they promised to God?
Do you have to enter the priesthood,
or do you just have to serve God?
If so, you can do it
by becoming a sacristan.
There, no problem.
- Your suggestions are really something.
- Am I right, huh?
- I have a point.
- There you go again.
If I survive,
they'll offer me to the church
to become a priest.
Oh no.
Maybe you should pray for it.
Honestly,
I've prayed for it a lot.
Sometimes, it gets me thinking.
Perhaps God is really angry at me.
It's as if He doesn't want me to be happy.
Hey, it's not like that.
No, but it feels that way.
Wait. Time out.
Let's stop talking about God.
It's off-limits.
So it doesn't ruin our drinking session.
Yeah, that's hard. Just leave it for now.
Hey, where are you going?
To the restroom.
I told you to watch out for him,
now you're going to the restroom as well.
I warned you, didn't I?
When there's booze, people get loose.
I'm about to pee. I can't help it anymore.
Take a leak by the tree.
THROW-UP BREAK TALK
11:20 P.M., JUST LIKE AN INTERMISSION
You talk with your mouth closed.
We can't understand what you're saying.
You'd get it, somehow.
You're having coffee already?
No, it's for Sandy.
EXCESSIVE DRUNKENNESS
It's about to fall. Hurry!
- What's about to fall?
- What?
It's just her drool.
It's about to fall.
Are you okay?
What
- Why?
- It's just her drool.
I thought it was something else.
Sorry.
- I just made half a cup of coffee.
- It was about to fall.
I'll take care of it.
I'll do it.
Do you want coffee?
-I got shocked
-Right?
When I saw it was about to fall.
Careful. It's hot.
So, what happened?
- A lot.
- No, nothing much.
- You want me to summarize it for you?
- There was nothing.
No need for a recap.
That's right. Better get sober first.
In that case, you take this shot
and tell us your story.
What kind of story do you like to hear?
Any story you're willing to share with us.
Okay, here's my story.
Guys, have I ever told you
I lead a super sad life?
Why?
Why is your life sad?
Explain it to us carefully.
Because my parents are so evil. The worst.
How are they evil?
Are they cruel to you?
They practically want to kill me.
Is that true?
What makes you say that?
It's true.
They're the worst.
That's why I was so stressed
at the convenience store.
Because even my credit card
and debit card
I don't have a card anymore.
Even my mobile phone subscription.
I don't even have an e-wallet.
That's it?
They withdrew all its credits.
I have a zero credit balance now.
Let's just understand her situation.
No!
No, I can't.
- Me, too.
- Tell us.
Why do we need to understand her?
You're her interpreter.
Take a shot first before you start.
Okay.
Okay.
You see, Sandy lives a sheltered life.
So, her world is only this small.
I thought of something else.
Listen, it's this small.
Then ours is this much.
Mine is about that size.
Like this.
Our worlds are different, so therefore,
the hardship she says she's going through
is different from the one we have. Get it?
Get it?
A hard life?
No money for Starbucks is a hard life?
Maybe she has a deeper reason,
but she just can't express herself.
Go ahead. Give it a try.
Try talking to her.
Why the fuss?
Sandy, what triggered your parents
to be strict with you about money?
I really don't know.
Like I didn't do anything.
That's impossible.
Fine.
So, when did they start
to be strict with you?
So, everything was okay before that?
Kinda.
Can we get a clearer answer?
Wait, why are you like that?
I thought we're here because we're
gonna drink our problems away.
So, why are you lecturing me
like a guidance counselor?
We can stop if you want.
I thought you wanted to share your story.
You're a fine one to say.
You haven't even shared yours.
Fair enough, but no pressure.
What I'm saying is, you feel relieved
when you get things off your chest, right?
You see?
Sometimes, it's easier to open up
to a stranger because there is
no judgment nor any relationship ruined.
I believe that.
On that note,
- take a shot.
- Okay, I'm now ready to share my story.
- You needed no convincing, huh?
- So, tell us.
My parents and I were okay
until two weeks ago.
So, what triggered it?
What's "no cap"?
I wasn't enrolled this semester.
Why did you not enroll?
What good vibes are you talking about?
What should the vibe be?
I just didn't want to.
A lot of people want
to go to school but can't.
All you had to do was go to class.
But I didn't want to.
Why not?
Were you being bullied in school?
What? She's probably the bully.
Hey.
Maybe you lost interest in school
because you don't believe
in getting a college degree,
or you don't see its purpose,
or you're just lazy.
I'm aware of the value of a degree,
Or maybe 50% no value
and 50% laziness.
- Or 46%
- She even has percentages.
So, you didn't enroll,
then your parents got mad at you
because you didn't enroll,
or is it because
you pretended to go to class?
I got confused.
I got confused, too.
- What was that?
- Me, too. What was that?
There's a difference between not enrolling
and pretending to be enrolled.
In fairness to you, that was good.
You can be a lawyer.
So, you go to school
to get your allowance, right?
Where do you go?
Sometimes, I hang out at the coffee shop.
So, isn't that enough reason
for your parents to get mad at you?
How much is your allowance?
Like twenty bucks cash a day.
Twenty bucks?
A hundred bucks a week?
You can feed a family
for a month with that amount.
Do you realize that?
Sandy, what's the real reason
you didn't go to school?
Tell us. What's the real reason?
Nothing.
What do you mean nothing?
There should be a reason for that!
- Calm down.
- What?!
No.
I'm not calming down!
This kid is infuriating.
See? It's despicable, right?
That's it.
I thought the lie
was that you're super sad?
Yes, it was because I said
I have a boyfriend,
And you're proud of that?
You're unbelievable!
You're wasting the opportunity
to study because of that?
You infuriate me.
You're really unbelievable.
You're so
If you were my kid, I'd shave your head.
- And scrape the dry flakes off your scalp.
- Fine, I'm sorry.
I admit I made my parents mad at me.
- You bet!
- And I feel sorry about it.
So, we should be grateful for that?
- Stupid!
- Shithead.
I felt like
I haven't done anything right.
When I was in school,
I was always failing.
So, I tried to find
other things I was good at.
Well, you're good at getting boyfriends.
So, you got three
at the same time. Really?
Our generation
is not really into labels.
We're not old school,
where it's super formal.
So we just kinda went along with it.
Until they became a lot.
Sandy, could the problem
be your lack of respect?
Respect for your parents,
for other people,
for money, and for yourself.
Everything is just given to you now,
so you don't have to work hard
for anything.
I could not have said it better.
- What?
- What?
Isaac.
Hey, do you want some water?
I'm okay.
I'm okay.
I'm sorry you found out.
It hurts.
But I know I have no right to be,
since we're not a couple.
But how stupid of me.
It's because you love her.
That's true.
Tell me, what right do you have
to complain about life?
You're so selfish.
Do you realize that your parents
work their asses off
to send you to school?
Shut up! I'm not done talking!
Your problems make no sense at all.
You know what's your problem?
You.
You are your own problem!
You flirt with a lot of boys.
Then, when you feel guilty
about it, you hide.
You're so stupid! So infuriating!
Your excuses make me furious
because other people
are having a hard time in life.
C'mon, it's okay. Let it out.
What the heck, bro?
Pick on someone your own size.
Look, he's just a kid.
What?
I know what you're up to.
Are you gay?
Who... Why are you so malicious?
Who's gay, huh?
Why are you crying? Are you gay?
Hang on. Lose the attitude, will you?
And what's with the gay slur?
- What gay slur?
- Are you homophobic?
Homo what? No, I'm not.
So, you're not gay?
Why do you need to know?
So, you're not? Sorry, my bad.
I have no problem with gay people.
I support the LGBTQ. Sorry again.
Get a hold of yourself.
We're trying to help Isaac here.
Why do we need to help him?
Hey,
don't go crazy over that girl.
There are lots
of other girls out there, boy.
Let him be. Advise him later.
He's still in shock.
He has loved her for so long and yet
Relax and stay here for a while.
We'll leave him here?
I'll go
I'll go back there when I'm fine.
Alright. Don't take a nap
in this stinky place.
- Do you understand what I'm saying?
- Tere
- Tere
- Do you understand?
- You don't seem to.
- Tere, that's enough.
- Do you understand?
- That's enough.
She doesn't seem
- to understand me.
- I admit I'm bad.
- Will you please stop?
- Are you sure?
Everybody, stop talking. Okay?
Okay?
- Stop talking.
- It's just that
I was just trying
I was only reprimanding her.
- Were you arguing?
- I was only reprimanding her.
Should we go on or call it a day?
No!
What are you talking about? We go on!
Got it.
Let's go on till we're all dead drunk.
Here it is. Perfect.
Here we go.
What's that?
Just joking.
I wanna get drunk
Because you're now gone
I look in the mirror
And I am all alone
I kept alive the hibiscus plant
You returned to me
When we broke up
It's like my feelings
That refuse to die
Even if you pour beer on it
My love
I hope you don't...
What
What happened?
Why did you turn it off?
I'm not enjoying it.
You're the only one not enjoying it.
How about you two?
- That's mine.
- Hey, stop taking shots.
What are you crying for?
You look stupid.
Do they have chips or peanuts here?
But you haven't finished the crackers.
I asked cause the others
might like something else.
Guys, do you want anything?
How about you?
They're all good.
You might want something else.
You see, we all know how to be contented.
Unlike you, who easily
gets tired of things.
Okay. You don't have to shout.
I don't care!
I'll shout if I want to!
Fine!
You're all mad at me.
Perhaps you know why, right?
Because I'm a brat!
That's it!
Hold it. If you wanna talk,
can't you wait till you get sober?
No, leave them alone.
Or talk in private.
You can move over there.
No, they can stay here. I wanna hear it.
I have nothing to say.
I have a lot to say.
Explain it to me.
How can you afford to have
three boyfriends, huh?
I already explained that earlier.
- Let's move on to the next topic.
- No, you tell me first.
No one's moving on!
Explain to me why!
Why?
Explain it to me!
You have no respect for yourself
and other people, and you're mean.
When you hurt others, it's nothing to you.
It doesn't matter.
How can you do that?
And you're pretentious.
You're so pretentious.
What do you mean, "what is palutong"?
It's prawn crackers, dumb-ass!
We used to have that at the variety store
right across from our school.
What happened to you?
Do I need to explain it to you?
Yes, of course.
Why?
Because I love you.
I love you
Because I still believe
that the Sandy I knew is still there,
in your heart.
Where's the Sandy who used to be nice?
The Sandy who cared
about me and other people?
Where is the Sandy that I loved?
Bring her out!
Hilo
Indulge me.
That's for your parents.
This one's for Isaac.
Enough. Enough.
Enough.
She's being stubborn, irritating.
I'm good.
Are you okay?
We are three daughters in our family.
I'm the middle one.
My sisters are the prettiest
and brightest of us three.
So?
They're the favorites
of our grannies, uncles, and aunties.
I'm the sister
of the prettiest and brightest.
Since they're pretty and bright,
I had to find my place in our family.
So, I became the kindest.
I did my best at being kind.
I was a dutiful daughter,
a generous sister,
a respectful granddaughter,
and a good friend.
They say, what's important
is what's inside of you.
That's not true.
Physical beauty is also important.
I just want to be noticed.
To be praised.
You know?
To be appreciated. That sort of thing.
But then
I just took care of
My parents.
Then, they eventually passed on.
I have no one to take care of anymore.
That made me think.
So, what's my purpose now?
I have no purpose anymore.
That's when
I started to get
Scared.
Scared of being alone.
But things turned out for the better
because even at that age,
I was able to get married.
Good for you. You got a happy ending.
I thought it was a happy ending, too.
But no.
Because on our way
to our wedding reception,
we had an accident.
A delivery van hit my husband
on his side.
I thought I was going to be widowed.
But no.
My husband is alive.
He replaced my
I used to take care of my parents,
but now I take care of my husband.
You're awesome,
Tere. You're great.
A great fool!
But that's life, right?
That's how we love.
What's the matter?
Huh?
Sorry, but I find your story hilarious.
I know, right?
I'm so unlucky, it's ridiculous.
It's so exhausting!
It's so exhausting! Like yesterday,
I didn't get enough sleep.
Then, you dumb-ass bumped into me!
My mobile phone and wallet got stolen.
What bad luck, right?
I was ready to give up.
I despised God so much.
Right?
I just wanted to
You wanted to let go?
No, no.
No, I just wanted to disappear.
Sorry,
I lied.
I, too, felt like God did not love me.
Don't think like that, Tere.
God loves us all.
Sometimes, He just wants
to teach us a lesson.
Is it not enough?
Hasn't He taught me enough?
Perhaps, He wants to teach you to
love yourself?
It's not bad to grow tired.
But it's okay to take a rest.
It's okay to love oneself.
Tere, forgive me for asking,
but your accident
on the way to the reception
means you never went on your honeymoon?
Which means
You're being a virgin is
Not the lie?
Forgive me.
You can hit me, slap me, beat me up.
It's just so hilarious.
What the heck?
You're still a virgin at your age?
Yours might be covered with cobwebs now.
Just joking.
I'm trying to make you laugh.
Yours might say
So, this is the last shot.
Would you like to have it?
- I'm good.
- How about you?
- Pass.
- I'm good.
So, what's our group name going to be?
You might want to name our group?
Hell, you're corny.
Then you think of a name.
Ouch!
Stop making fun of me.
I meant the liquor, not you.
Okay.
For the group formed while fighting over
the last bottles of beer and gin.
There, I explained it.
Ew.
Delicious.
Hey, you're still here?
Hi. Good morning, Aunt Nori.
You told us to wait for you, right?
So we waited.
I'm up and about now.
I need to tidy up the place.
Sorry for the inconvenience, Aunt Nori.
Did you get anything from the store?
-Yes, we got coffee,
-No, we didn't.
Prawn crackers, four more bottles, and
- Candies.
- Aunt Nori
The usual. Put it on my tab first.
Makes sure you pay me by tomorrow.
Hey, have I ever broken my promise to pay?
Well, quite often.
But you still love me.
You know what?
If there is someone who is pitiful
to kill but irritating to spare,
you know what?
It's you.
Is that so? Thanks for nothing.
C'mon, time to go home.
You're not fit to go home yet.
Not fit
Do you think I'm irritating to spare?
C'mon, she was just joking.
Just joking? I don't think so.
Should I just be killed?
Snap out of it.
It's not like you.
No, Aunt Nori might have a point.
No.
Perhaps the world would be
a better place when I'm gone.
- Hilo, what's the matter?
- Hey.
I'm sorry.
C'mon, tell us.
Sorry, I'm so sleepy already.
Don't mind me.
Let's not do a guessing game
anymore. Speak up.
What do you want to know?
Everything. Your problems
I have lots.
You might be surprised.
You should have
slapped me earlier, not her.
C'mon, slap me.
Go on.
Bro.
C'mon, slap me. You don't want to?
Then I'll slap myself instead.
Oh, that hurts.
No, that hurts even more.
Take your time.
We'll listen to you
when you're ready to talk.
Hey.
I give up
I give up.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey, I need to go home now.
I'll go too.
My parents are looking for me already.
- Hilo.
- Hmm?
Go ahead. I'll stay behind.
Shall we call it a day?
Can you give a little
And you?
Are you alright?
I'm sober now.
Thanks.
It sure felt nice to let my emotions out.
No problem. Stay cool, okay?
Don't hurt anybody anymore.
See you.
We'll go ahead.
- Thank you.
- Thanks.
Thank you.
Take care.
Take care of her.
- Bring her home.
- Finish the coffee.
I'll leave it to you guys.
Go with them.
Don't wait up for me.
Come on.
No, I'll stay behind. Don't worry.
I don't mind being alone.
- Go ahead.
- I'm sorry.
You might be planning to do something bad.
Forget about it.
I won't kill myself. I'm afraid of hell.
Go ahead. I really want to be alone.
Was it painful?
C'mon, Aunt Nori. Join me.
What do you want?
- Let's chat first.
- Spare me, please.
I didn't get enough sleep.
Besides, stop sharing
your life's miseries.
I've heard about them lots of times.
I've got my own problems too, you know.
I'm sorry.
Just don't forget
- what you've learned today.
- What?
Your companions wanted to stay with you.
Why did you let them go?
- Wait a sec.
- Wait.
Where are we headed?
Wait. Come back.
What is it?
What's the matter?
What is it?
Look.
You see
I'm an idiot.
We know that already.
But I'm not a criminal.
I'm not a wanted man.
But I wronged my family big time.
That's why I don't wanna go home.
I can't go home.
Why did you not tell us that earlier?
Well, you shared your stories.
I figured it's only fair
that I share mine, too.
Do you need to talk about it?
No, I'm fine.
I was just worried
that you might misjudge me.
We probably might not see each other
anymore, so I just wanted to tell you.
Take care. I'll stay here for a while.
Hey.
No, go ahead.
What is it that you did, huh?
I'm lazy, so I wanted
an easy way to make money.
So, I got into gambling.
By the way, I lied too.
I'm addicted to gambling.
It was great at first cause it was easy.
I pawned some things to gamble,
then got them back when I won.
But then I got into deep debt.
I was forced to spend
other people's money.
I spent my in-law's money for medicine.
For her purchase of an oxygen tank.
My kid's savings.
When I ran out of money,
I mortgaged my in-law's house.
I gambled until I lost all that money.
Maybe you can still remedy your situation.
Why don't you find work,
so you can gradually pay your debt?
Who would not want to do that, right?
But I think I've run out of time.
My life is under threat right now.
What do you mean under threat?
My creditor has police connections.
Great, right?
So, what do you plan to do now?
Nothing.
I don't know what to do anymore.
My head hurts just thinking about it.
If you look at it from all angles,
it feels like
Their threat seems to be real.
It seems like they'll really kill me.
Oh my, that's dangerous.
I think you should
just stick with your family.
I've already put
my family's life in danger.
How much worse can I make it for them?
I don't go home, not because
I'm ashamed of myself.
I'm such a shameless person.
I don't go home
because I fear my family might
be threatened by my creditor as well.
You poor thing.
- Stop it.
- Come here, you.
You win the biggest problem award.
Don't get affected by my problem.
I'm just sharing my story.
That's why I don't like doing this.
- I really pity you.
- Don't pity me.
Fix your problem with your parents.
I'll handle the consequences
-of
-Sandy
- My actions.
- Yeah.
What do you mean yeah?
- Mom Dad
- Sandy.
I'm sorry.
- Are those her parents?
- Yes.
It's okay. You scared us to death.
You took a long time to come out.
Why? Have you been waiting long?
Since 11:00 p.m.
What? You've been here since last night?
I'm sorry, but
How did you find out where I was?
Wait, I forgot my bike.
Let's go.
Where to now?
Mom, Dad, I'm sorry.
For things too many to mention.
I'm really sorry
because I have done so many
shortcomings and wrongdoings against you.
So, we'll go over them one by one, okay?
But you're still grounded.
We'll return your privileges to you
once you've come to your senses.
And with all the consequences.
Can we give Isaac a ride?
Would you like to ride with us?
- Isaac.
- Come faster.
Is it okay?
They say I can ride with them.
What are you waiting for?
- C'mon, let's go so we can have breakfast.
- See you there.
Good morning, sir.
We're fine. Drive home safely.
Why are you crying?
I still have no answer
for what happened to me.
But I'd look
for the Sandy you knew.
I want to find her as well.
I'm fine with that.
Bye, everyone.
Bye.
Let's chat again soon.
- Sure.
- Sure.
Sure. Get home safely.
You wanna ride with us?
- No.
- No.
Can we?
- No, thanks.
- Can my bike fit
- Take care. Thank you.
- Thank you.
DM me on Facebook.
- What's your account name?
- Maria Teresa Catolico.
You have a nice name.
- Go ahead. God bless.
- Go ahead.
Your parents are waiting for you.
Take care.
Thank you.
I'm so sleepy.
Don't you want to ride with them?
- No.
- No, I'm fine.
Don't you want to go home?
The free breakfast
can relieve our hangover.
But seriously,
thank you for the drinks
and for everything.
If I'm not killed or put in jail,
let's meet again.
Of course. We can DM each other.
Is that a promise, not just lip service?
Of course not.
I'd like to know what's
the next chapter in your life story.
Okay. At our next get-together,
I'm hosting.
Okay. I'll go ahead. I'm really sleepy.
- Bye.
- Get home safely.
- You, too.
- C'mon, I'll bring you home.
No need. What do you take me for, a kid?
- C'mon.
- Hey, this is my bike.
Get your own.
You know, those guys
are just trying to scare you.
If ever, they'll just file
a police report on you.
They won't dare harm you.
If they do, they'll be the prime suspects.
And if they kill you,
then you won't have to pay them back.
Right?
You're really something, you know.
Can we do something about it?
My brother's starting to worry.
Sir, don't worry.
We're coordinating
with the other watchmen.
We can't report it yet to the police.
Sir, here she is.
What's going on?
Your husband has been worried about you.
He asked us to search for you.
He said you were missing.
My apologies.
Thanks, but I'm back now.
We'll go ahead.
What's the matter?
Huh?
I thought
You've left me.
I won't do that.
Perhaps
You're tired of taking care of me.
In sickness and in health, right?
For better and for worse.
I'd understand if you choose to
leave me.
Your life would be easier.
What are you talking about?
I'm fine.
I just needed to
Take a breather.
Has your brother taken all his meds?
Yes, all of them.
I just followed the list.
Thank you for looking after him.
What's wrong?
I'm back now.
Are you alright?
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.
You got scared, huh?
You
Issa! Your husband has returned.
Hurry! Go meet him.
- Where?
- He's been waiting there
for some time now.
Go ahead.
Hilo!
The nerve of you to show your face here!
The nerve of you!
And you're still alive, you jerk?!
It would be best if you're dead!
The nerve of you!
What are you doing here?
I wanted to see you.
You spent all my mom's money!
I'm sorry, love.
So what happens to us now, huh?
No, I'll look for a job.
I'll try everything. I won't give up.
That much I wanna promise you.
I won't run away anymore, love.
I'm sorry, love.
Please forgive me.
You reek of alcohol!
- You reek of alcohol.
- It's gone.
I've covered my mouth.
Love
You're lucky I love you.
It's my fault. Hit me. I can take it.
- Hit me.
- Don't do it again.
I won't do it again. I promise.
- I hate you!
- You can hurt me.
One more. I promise
I'll make it up to you.
Don't do it again.
I won't stop until I've repaid
all my shortcomings.
Father, please excuse me.
Perhaps my first sin is
I've already forgotten
how to make a confession.
But
My sins have already piled up.
First,
I spent money that is not mine
and got addicted to gambling.
That's the reason
why I neglected my family.
I lied and learned
to rip off other people.
I got angry at God.
The nerve of me, right?
That's why I haven't gone to church
and haven't prayed in a while.
And haven't even come to confession.
For now, that's all the sins
I can remember.
And oh, I haven't paid Aunt Nori yet.
She's the owner of my favorite eatery.
That's all.
In the parable of the lost sheep,
the shepherd was overjoyed
when he found it.
The Lord's joy is more than this
with your return to Him.
RG, is that you?
My goodness.
Hey, what are doing there?
Why are you dressed like that?
Oh.
You're playing a prank on me, aren't you?
Aren't you?
Is this a prank?
My God, now I've sinned even more.
Sorry, Father. I mistook you
for a pervert.
Sorry. Do I need to walk on my knees?
- There's no need.
- Walk back and forth?
No.
Shall we continue with your confession?
Ah yes, Father. Sorry again.
But I'm already done.
- I still need to say something.
- Oh, I see.
Okay.
Hilo, I want you to know
that God forgives you.
Just pray three Our Fathers,
three Hail Marys, and three Glory Be.
Yes, Father, please forgive me.
Thank you so much.
You haven't paid Aunt Nori yet?
Are you sure we came
to the right meeting place?
Yes, I got the address right.
Are you sure? Check again.
Isaac! Sandy!
- Hello!
- Hey.
- How are you?
- Hello!
Tere, how are you?
Long time no see.
I know.
I have good news.
I went back to school.
Wow, very good! Good for you.
Hold on
Are you together now?
Yes, we are.
Great! You did it.
I did her.
Oh!
Team Beergin!
- Hilo!
- Oh!
Do you recognize him?
What do you think?
Father?
Thank you for accepting my invitation.
- Wait.
- How are you?
Is that for real?
When I met you, I was on regency.
I was on leave from the church.
What the fu...?!
Calm down.
So, you're a priest.
May I ask, why were you on leave?
I needed time to think.
I prayed and waited for discernment
to ascertain my return to my vocation.
Sorry, I still don't get it.
So, what happened?
Let me see
Well, I met four people.
And in one whole night I spent with them,
I got my answer.
Answer to what question?
If this is really my calling.
You made me realize
that by being a priest
I'd be able to guide more people,
and my life has more meaning.
Isaac
This is a calling.
It cannot be forced on anyone.
Life has so much joy
in serving the church,
especially since it's a gift from God.
Thank you for sharing
your wisdom with us, Father.
Let me kiss your hand.
Me, too.
Hold on.
- What?
- Father, you're pulling a fast one on us.
How so?
You said you'd host our next get-together.
Yes, I'm hosting now.
The bread and wine is on me during Mass.
- Oh great!
- Why?
He's holding us captive in church.
You're making fun of
Oh, Father.
No need to hug.
You can just kiss his hand.
May I give you all a hug?
How have you been?
- I just went to confession.
- Have you mend your ways?
A little.
How about you? Are you still a virgin?
- Hey!
- Do a confession with me!
- You're next.
- It doesn't count.
I haven't sinned yet.
Hilo hasn't really changed.
What the heck is your problem, dumb-ass?!
You're the bigger dumb-ass!
What did you just say, huh?
I said you're the bigger dumb-ass.
Seriously?
You're the one in the wrong lane,
yet you're the one who's upset.
Of course, I'll be in the wrong lane.
I turned the corner
to get into the bike lane,
but you cut into my lane, you moron.
You're the bigger moron!
You should be apologetic
instead of being arrogant.
- What do you want now, huh?
- Don't you dare.
- There are CCTV cams here.
- What CCTV cams?
- You're about to pull a gun on me.
- I don't have a gun.
Fuck you! I thought you had a gun.
- Hold it!
- You piss me off.
I don't have a gun!
Wait. What are you doing?
What now?!
- Hold it!
- I'll hit you.
Get out of here! Get back into your car!
Let talk about this. Calm down!
A lot of bikers get
into accidents because of...
- Get out of here! You don't wanna go, huh?
- Fine.
I'm leaving. Wait.
- Wait!
- You're pissed off again?
- Huh?!
- I said I'm sorry.
You're making my blood boil.
I'm just biking.
JUN, BRO-IN-LAW
I JUST GOT HOME. MY BROTHER IS DOING FINE
Sir, I'm getting off.
Excuse me.
What the heck? You're in my way, son.
I'm sorry.
Ouch.
What the heck?!
I'm sorry. I didn't see you coming.
It's that guy's fault, not yours.
Crazy.
Excuse me, ma'am,
but you haven't paid for that yet.
Put it on my bill along with you.
I apologize. I'll pay for it.
Tell him I'm on the phone!
What now?!
You're taking too long.
Ma'am, excuse me,
but do you have another card?
This one got declined.
Well, the transaction was not approved.
Moron! I know what "declined" means.
Another imbecile.
Give me back my card.
Who the hell was that?
This gin is mine, bro.
What do you mean it's yours?
I saw it first.
No, I got here before you.
I just checked another item.
But I reserved this one.
I don't see your name on it.
So, are you saying I'm a liar?
I didn't say that.
So, do you want us to fight over this?
Hey, why do you have to be so violent?
Boy, I don't think you know what violent
means, but you're about to find out.
- C'mon, let's settle this outside.
- Excuse me, gentlemen.
I'll check if we still have it in stock.
You don't have to fight over it.
That was you!
Jesus, why are you hitting me?
Oh, that's the last
bottle of beer and gin...
What did you do?!
You broke it. You better pay for it.
- Pay it.
- Karma.
Wait. Shouldn't you be the one
to pay for it since you caused it?
Wait.
Settle your own issue later.
How about this?
I'll take this bottle of gin.
Then I'll take that bottle of beer.
Hey you, pay for my stolen money
and mobile phone first.
What money and mobile phone?
I don't even know you. Who are you?
- What do you mean you don't know me?
- Wait.
Let me settle my thing first, okay?
I want to get drunk so badly.
Please let me.
There's lots of liquor here, bro.
Drink it all.
- Watch out for the glass shards, ma'am.
- You didn't understand,
and now I still have to explain?
I only drink a cocktail
of beer and gin, okay?
I only drink beer and gin myself.
The company that delivers those
has been on strike for weeks now.
You won't find it anymore in other stores.
Why didn't you tell us sooner?!
Well, you only asked me now!
- Look, you even broke the last bottles.
- I've been searching for a while now
This is what we'll do.
What?
Ress, the CCTV footage has been found.
Okay, for us to know who's going
to pay for the broken bottles,
let's all look at the CCTV footage.
You too, ma'am.
- Why include me?
- It's obvious that he did it.
- Let's just watch the footage.
- Follow me.
- What about my mobile phone and money?
- I'll take this.
- I really don't know who took them.
- Settle your issue first.
I'll take this. Settle your issue first.
- I'll just hold it.
- Wait, boys.
- Give it to me.
- Talk to her first.
Wait. He's right.
There, hold on a moment.
Please watch this.
See? I took it first.
Yeah, we saw it.
Aren't you going to split the tab with me?
It's your fault, too.
Do you want me to split your throat
with the glass shard?
Why are the people here so violent?
I'm violent?
I was minding my own business
when you bumped into me.
- But I did not mean to...
- Let's settle this first, okay?
- Miss, here's my suggestion.
- Yes?
I'll pay for this beer first.
Don't take the gin
off your inventory count.
Definitely not.
- Put it on my tab for now.
- Oh, no.
We can't do that!
Why should we pay for it?
We don't drink
because we can't afford it.
Then you want us to pay
for the bottles you broke?
Actually, I shouldn't be
the one to pay for it...
You better pay
for the two bottles you broke.
I dropped it when she screamed.
She should pay for it.
- Who?
- Her.
I have nothing to do with you. Duh.
Duh. Your scream made me drop the bottle.
Cause I'm waiting
for my dad's money transfer.
- What the hell?
- Fine, let's wait for your dad's reply.
That's not sure.
Just pay for it.
You broke two bottles.
Excuse me. How much is it?
There you go! Thank you.
Any amount will do.
You're the new-generation hero.
It's settled then.
I'll take care of it.
I'm just waiting
for my mom's money transfer.
- Better to pool all your cash.
- That's okay.
List down what else is needed.
Come home right now!
We got the letter from your school,
so come home now,
You fend for yourself.
Dad! Dad?! There goes my dad again.
Hey!
- Wait!
- Hey!
- Hey!
- What's that?
Hey!
Wait. Calm down.
You should be grateful
they only made you settle your bill.
You better leave before
they file a complaint against you.
Like on what grounds?
Shut up. You'll only make things worse.
Go. And don't ever come back.
Because you're just a watchman, you know.
I can call a lawyer.
Sir.
You're so stubborn!
Oh wow, speaking English now, huh?
POLICE
How about me?
I only got involved because of you.
I'm sorry.
You talk too much.
Do you plan to share
that gin with us, bro?
This one? Sure.
Alright. Let's go.
Hey, we're going with you.
We paid for that gin, too.
What do you mean "we"?
Only he paid for it.
What? He paid for it because of me.
He like simps for me.
Sandy, I'll take you home. Your parents
might be worried about you.
I want them to worry.
But we don't know these people.
They don't look sus to me.
Just follow me. You talk a lot.
Do you really have
no plans to pay me back?
I really don't have money.
Any amount will do.
I really don't have any.
But you have money to pay for that.
That was my last.
I'm not liking this. It's so far.
You better not take us
to a dangerous place.
Excuse me. I would not even dare.
Then why is it so far?
You think it's far?
Do you have money for cab fare then?
None, right?
Then this is the cheapest route.
- Is it safe there?
- Completely safe.
No one will hold us up
and take our money there.
Aren't your parents looking for you?
I told them I'm going out today.
As for me, I'm practically
an orphan now, so
Oh, that was fast.
But you were waiting for your dad's
money transfer earlier, right?
Like it was easy-peasy, right?
- Hey, that's enough!
- That's exactly what you deserve.
You're such a slut.
That's enough.
You're a slut!
Here we are.
There.
I thought we're going
to a bar or something.
What bar?
Do you have the budget to go to one?
You don't even have money to pay
for your napkin and chips earlier.
Hey.
Bar, my foot.
Aunt Nori!
I'm here. Come in.
- Hold on. Okay.
- I'll take care of you all.
C'mon.
- Aunt Nori.
- What is it?
You know, the usual.
Geez! Angel, you're always
on your mobile phone!
You're acting so sluggish.
- Move faster!
- Hi, Angel.
Work over there.
- What?
- The usual. Give us a drink.
Get your bottle.
We brought our own.
- May I have a drink of water?
- Yeah, sure.
Order finger food, so I can make money.
- Okay.
- We'll have spicy hot dog
and chips then.
- For your sweat.
- And bring us a bottle,
ice, and a pitcher.
- Okay?
- Wow.
Thank you. Love you.
No need for the bottle. We brought some.
Just bring us a pitcher, ice, and a glass.
You should have bought gin from my store.
Well, I thought I was drinking alone.
The store clerk earlier said
there's none left. It's her fault.
What a liar.
What does she mean there's nothing left?
Do you have it in stock?
Of course. I'm a shrewd store owner.
Hey, you still owe me from last time.
Madam, I never forget my debt,
so just put it on my tab.
Scout's honor.
Why start a fight earlier
when there was stock here all along?
Well, I didn't know
Aunt Nori is a hoarder.
Don't mind him. He's like that.
Oh well, I'll leave you now.
Aunt Nori, bring us some chips.
- Got it.
- Thanks.
Let's start. What do you want?
What are the options?
Pick one. Expired or Kisay.
What's the difference?
Expired is beer, gin,
ice, and menthol mint.
So, which?
Shall we have Expired then?
Since when was liquor
ever safe for the body?
No, I mean the glass.
The alcohol will sterilize the glass,
if that's what you mean.
Would you rather not drink?
Oops, I think we need more glasses.
It's like we pass it around.
You know, like shot-shot.
Are you mimicking me?
Yes, because you're such a snob.
Stop it. You're starting to disgust me.
- Take it easy.
- Where's the menthol mint?
Here.
Have some respect for a lady.
Your escort is defending you.
Sure, let's chill out first.
- Where exactly is it here?
- Hurry up.
Go faster.
I don't want to anymore. It stinks here.
Not going yet? Okay, you go ahead.
I'll go next.
It stinks so bad. Oh no, it's so dark.
NO MEN ALLOWED TO URINATE
IN THE LADIES' ROOM
It's so dark.
Go ahead. I'll wait by the door.
And there's no toilet paper.
There's no toilet paper. The floor is wet.
You know what? You complain a lot!
Why did you tag along, anyway?
You should have just checked in
at a five-star hotel.
I'm not supposed to tag along,
But why?
What's taking them so long? Pee or poop?
You're gross. Let's wait for them.
There she is! Okay, let's start.
What?
Let's wait for Sandy.
Trying to make a move on her, huh?
Your seatmate looks like
he plans to make a move, too.
He keeps looking at you, boy.
I think he likes you.
Stop that.
We're chill here.
That's what I said, too.
Do you need a paper napkin?
While drinking,
let's play a game
of getting-to-know-each-other.
Let's not. What's this? A soiree?
Indulge her.
Thanks for the vote of confidence.
- So, how do we play the game?
- It's simple.
Hurry.
Just say your name
and three things about yourself.
One of those is a lie.
The rest will guess which one.
- Got it. You start.
- Sure.
- Is this the only glass?
- Yes.
You're super sad is the lie.
So easy.
It's true.
It's obvious you're not super sad.
You're actually irritating.
Okay, next.
So, you have a boyfriend is the lie?
Hilario. Hilo (light-headed) for short.
Nice. Your name suits you.
Quit butting in.
It's my turn to play, isn't it?
I'm a junkie.
My family rejected me.
I turned my back on my family.
What's tinakwil?
Answer her, please.
Rejected.
That's the lie. Your family tinukwil you.
It's tinakwil, not tinukwil.
And that's not the lie.
You rejected your family?
Wrong.
You're a junkie is the lie?
You don't seem to believe me.
I'm an honor student.
I ran away from home.
My parents don't love me.
But you didn't same your name.
And you ran away from home is the lie?
Yes, that's right.
Obviously, you know that
because you know each other.
Hurry. Drink. It's the next person's turn.
I'm RG.
I'm jobless.
I'm angry with God.
I'm married.
I'm married is the lie.
You look more like you're jobless
than you're married.
- That's right.
- There you go.
Here.
You're next. You have no choice.
There. Do it like her.
I'm Tere.
I'm married. I'm happy.
I'm a virgin.
Ouch! That hurts.
What's so funny?
That you're a vir...
Let's stop this game.
We're just irritating each other.
Let's stop.
We don't have to hurt each other.
- Hey, it's still my turn.
- Hey.
That's enough, Sandy.
You better quit. You've had enough.
This one's starting to hit me.
- But we're still playing.
- No.
Keep pouring.
- There, you can have it.
- It's mine.
Sandy, that's enough. You might get drunk.
I'm the last person to get drunk
among my friends, okay?
My alcohol tolerance is super-high.
Here, I'm done.
- It's his turn.
- It should go round, right?
It's going too fast.
You're grouchy.
Should we let her drink,
even if she hits people?
Yeah.
- No hitting, okay?
- Okay.
Is this really how it should taste?
Don't drink it if it's not to your...
But it tastes good.
- It's my turn.
- No, it's his first.
- It should be clockwise, actually.
- Keep pouring.
You've had a lot.
It should go counter-clockwise.
- It's his turn.
- Yeah.
Follow the order.
I'll keep this order, but this girl
keeps grabbing other people's drinks.
You took so long!
I like this
Hey.
Please don't.
What are you doing? She's not a frog.
What are you doing? Keep pouring
I'm just checking if she's really asleep.
She might be dead for all we know.
- You want another shot?
- Here.
- Hey, it's my turn.
- Sure.
The order goes counter-clockwise.
CONVERSATION ON EARLY DRUNKENESS
I'll have another one.
Order some sisig and crispy pata. C'mon.
Sure. Is it on the house?
- What? No way.
- No.
Actually, we can only afford
- hot dogs for now.
- Is it your turn?
I'll make it up to you next time.
- That's too much.
- Whatever.
That's a promise.
That's too much. You can have it.
Hey, it's your shot.
You won't get drunk on chips.
I don't wanna get drunk.
You're picking on Isaac again.
Isaac, why are you here again?
I was planning to buy something.
You know what? I remember you.
We bumped into each other on the jeepney.
I was getting off,
and you were getting on it.
Did you get on the jeepney?
Wait, you met on the jeepney?
You must be the pickpocket, aren't you?
Surrender her stuff.
I'm not the pickpocket.
- I'm not like that.
- That's him.
How dare you accuse me.
But you bumped into each other.
- I told you, I'm not the one who did it.
- Hey.
- Drink.
- I was following Sandy.
That's why. So, are you courting her?
No.
But you like her?
Of course.
Look at you grin.
Why not? Are your parents strict?
You don't want to fess up
because you're afraid
you might get rejected.
Don't be like that.
Can we give him
a chance to tell his story?
It's too much again.
Well, you didn't drink earlier,
so you get two shots this time.
There, bottoms up.
We're just casual acquaintances.
We see each other in church.
We're both involved in church activities.
She's from a rich family.
They donate a lot to the church.
I get it.
Your life is like
"Bohemian Rhapsody," right?
- What?
- Huh?
Easy come, easy go
Will you let me go?
Can he continue?
You Go ahead.
The truth is The truth is
I come from a poor family.
That's why I'm reluctant to court her.
You're poor?
But you paid for stuff earlier.
You even got these two off the hook.
Don't rub it in that we didn't have money.
That was my savings for three months.
I was planning to take Sandy to Starbucks.
So, you're poor with no money,
but you saved enough to go on a date
with your crush at Starbucks?
You're really a hero.
I'm not like that.
I'm more like a Stan.
That's right. A Stan.
- What's a "Stan"?
- What's that?
What an ignoramus. It's Stan (stand) fan.
What Stan fan? It's a stalk fan.
- Stan fan.
- Stalk fan!
Ouch!
You've hit me twice already.
What's keeping you from courting her?
He's staring at you.
It's okay if you don't
wanna share it with us.
Actually, I need to enter the
Priesthood.
He needs to become a what? A prick?
A priest, you dumb-ass!
When I was born,
I wasn't breathing for two minutes.
The doctor thought I was a stillborn baby.
But then, I was revived.
I stayed in the ICU for several months.
I was in and out of the hospital.
I even turned blue on several occasions.
But I'm here now. I'm alive, right?
One time, our family
was summoned by the local priest
to bless me.
They promised that, if I survive,
they will make me enter the priesthood
to serve the church.
Is that why you were named Isaac?
The son of Moses who was sacrificed
at the mountain, right?
- Abraham.
- He was the son of Abraham.
That's what I was thinking.
I just uttered the wrong name.
That's it?
If I were you, I would tell your parents,
"You become priest and nun yourselves,
you motherfuckers!"
Hey!
Don't cuss at my parents!
No, it's unfair.
So, is that the reason
why you can't have a love life?
Well, because
Calm down. Not everyone thinks like you.
Why, how do I think?
If you know how to think.
Why are you asking us?
CERTIFIED DRUNK
We just met you.
We don't know
if you have a criminal mind or
If you're a real criminal.
Wow.
Miss Virgin is judgmental.
Stop that. You'll hurt each other again.
No, go ahead. I'm an open book.
Ask me anything.
Where's your family?
In my ass.
What?
They're having coffee. Ouch!
No, they're in their home.
Don't you live there?
Sometimes.
It's my in-laws' house,
so I try to avoid staying there.
Are you a junkie?
- You keep asking me that!
- Hey!
I'm a junkie is the lie, remember?
Wait. Time out, you two.
You haven't told us yet
which one is your lie.
That you're a virgin, is it?
Ah.
I don't wanna answer that anymore.
You're unfair.
I'll ask you instead. What's up with you?
Nothing. Nothing much.
Nothing much? Are you married?
So, are you just lovers?
Yes, but I'm the one with the problem.
What's your problem?
I don't know
What to think anymore.
Ah, I know now.
You're boating in two rivers.
Is it true?
No!
Not yet.
No?
But you're tempted to do so?
Pour me a shot.
Sure.
Drink to that.
I'm going to bed.
Go ahead, Aunt Nori.
Don't leave my store open.
Wait for me to get up.
My mistress, by the way.
You wish!
- Pay me tomorrow.
- Sure.
What do you plan to do?
See? He can't move on with your story.
What?
Nothing, I guess.
I have a question, if you don't mind.
Go ahead.
I know Sandy is pretty,
but I think manners are more important.
You're really judgmental.
Are you saying she's got bad manners?
I didn't say that.
But you're right. She's got bad manners.
She's such a spoiled brat.
Spoiled brat!
She's really like that.
- So, she's really a spoiled brat?
- But there's another side to her.
She's a really good person.
How long have you known Sandy?
We've known each other since grade school.
Were you schoolmates?
We were,
but not in the same class.
I see.
It was only for a brief period
because their family business
boomed the next year.
They got rich, so she transferred
to a private school.
I remember something
that happened when we were kids.
Sandy's neighbors used to bully me a lot.
I developed an inferiority complex.
I refused to leave our house.
But one time, I was surprised
because she defended me against them.
- Wow.
- Oh.
- She defended you?
- Yes.
Your knight in shining armor?
It's embarrassing, but it's true.
I don't get it.
So, you were the damsel in distrust?
What?
You don't know that?
It's distress.
That's what I said. Damsel in distress.
Dumbass. But wait.
What a cute story.
Does Sandy know how you feel about her?
Why not?
It's useless. I better not.
What do you mean "useless"?
You keep giving flirty glances.
You keep following her around.
That's new, huh?
Obviously.
Well, of course, who knows?
- What?
- Who knows? Maybe one day,
I'll be the one to defend her.
- Wow!
- Wow!
Could it be just pride?
Why pride?
One more?
Your male ego wants to see the day
that you get to defend her
because she defended you once.
- I don't think so.
- It could be, boy.
You're shy, but intense!
Wait.
Did you clear up with your parents
what they promised to God?
Do you have to enter the priesthood,
or do you just have to serve God?
If so, you can do it
by becoming a sacristan.
There, no problem.
- Your suggestions are really something.
- Am I right, huh?
- I have a point.
- There you go again.
If I survive,
they'll offer me to the church
to become a priest.
Oh no.
Maybe you should pray for it.
Honestly,
I've prayed for it a lot.
Sometimes, it gets me thinking.
Perhaps God is really angry at me.
It's as if He doesn't want me to be happy.
Hey, it's not like that.
No, but it feels that way.
Wait. Time out.
Let's stop talking about God.
It's off-limits.
So it doesn't ruin our drinking session.
Yeah, that's hard. Just leave it for now.
Hey, where are you going?
To the restroom.
I told you to watch out for him,
now you're going to the restroom as well.
I warned you, didn't I?
When there's booze, people get loose.
I'm about to pee. I can't help it anymore.
Take a leak by the tree.
THROW-UP BREAK TALK
11:20 P.M., JUST LIKE AN INTERMISSION
You talk with your mouth closed.
We can't understand what you're saying.
You'd get it, somehow.
You're having coffee already?
No, it's for Sandy.
EXCESSIVE DRUNKENNESS
It's about to fall. Hurry!
- What's about to fall?
- What?
It's just her drool.
It's about to fall.
Are you okay?
What
- Why?
- It's just her drool.
I thought it was something else.
Sorry.
- I just made half a cup of coffee.
- It was about to fall.
I'll take care of it.
I'll do it.
Do you want coffee?
-I got shocked
-Right?
When I saw it was about to fall.
Careful. It's hot.
So, what happened?
- A lot.
- No, nothing much.
- You want me to summarize it for you?
- There was nothing.
No need for a recap.
That's right. Better get sober first.
In that case, you take this shot
and tell us your story.
What kind of story do you like to hear?
Any story you're willing to share with us.
Okay, here's my story.
Guys, have I ever told you
I lead a super sad life?
Why?
Why is your life sad?
Explain it to us carefully.
Because my parents are so evil. The worst.
How are they evil?
Are they cruel to you?
They practically want to kill me.
Is that true?
What makes you say that?
It's true.
They're the worst.
That's why I was so stressed
at the convenience store.
Because even my credit card
and debit card
I don't have a card anymore.
Even my mobile phone subscription.
I don't even have an e-wallet.
That's it?
They withdrew all its credits.
I have a zero credit balance now.
Let's just understand her situation.
No!
No, I can't.
- Me, too.
- Tell us.
Why do we need to understand her?
You're her interpreter.
Take a shot first before you start.
Okay.
Okay.
You see, Sandy lives a sheltered life.
So, her world is only this small.
I thought of something else.
Listen, it's this small.
Then ours is this much.
Mine is about that size.
Like this.
Our worlds are different, so therefore,
the hardship she says she's going through
is different from the one we have. Get it?
Get it?
A hard life?
No money for Starbucks is a hard life?
Maybe she has a deeper reason,
but she just can't express herself.
Go ahead. Give it a try.
Try talking to her.
Why the fuss?
Sandy, what triggered your parents
to be strict with you about money?
I really don't know.
Like I didn't do anything.
That's impossible.
Fine.
So, when did they start
to be strict with you?
So, everything was okay before that?
Kinda.
Can we get a clearer answer?
Wait, why are you like that?
I thought we're here because we're
gonna drink our problems away.
So, why are you lecturing me
like a guidance counselor?
We can stop if you want.
I thought you wanted to share your story.
You're a fine one to say.
You haven't even shared yours.
Fair enough, but no pressure.
What I'm saying is, you feel relieved
when you get things off your chest, right?
You see?
Sometimes, it's easier to open up
to a stranger because there is
no judgment nor any relationship ruined.
I believe that.
On that note,
- take a shot.
- Okay, I'm now ready to share my story.
- You needed no convincing, huh?
- So, tell us.
My parents and I were okay
until two weeks ago.
So, what triggered it?
What's "no cap"?
I wasn't enrolled this semester.
Why did you not enroll?
What good vibes are you talking about?
What should the vibe be?
I just didn't want to.
A lot of people want
to go to school but can't.
All you had to do was go to class.
But I didn't want to.
Why not?
Were you being bullied in school?
What? She's probably the bully.
Hey.
Maybe you lost interest in school
because you don't believe
in getting a college degree,
or you don't see its purpose,
or you're just lazy.
I'm aware of the value of a degree,
Or maybe 50% no value
and 50% laziness.
- Or 46%
- She even has percentages.
So, you didn't enroll,
then your parents got mad at you
because you didn't enroll,
or is it because
you pretended to go to class?
I got confused.
I got confused, too.
- What was that?
- Me, too. What was that?
There's a difference between not enrolling
and pretending to be enrolled.
In fairness to you, that was good.
You can be a lawyer.
So, you go to school
to get your allowance, right?
Where do you go?
Sometimes, I hang out at the coffee shop.
So, isn't that enough reason
for your parents to get mad at you?
How much is your allowance?
Like twenty bucks cash a day.
Twenty bucks?
A hundred bucks a week?
You can feed a family
for a month with that amount.
Do you realize that?
Sandy, what's the real reason
you didn't go to school?
Tell us. What's the real reason?
Nothing.
What do you mean nothing?
There should be a reason for that!
- Calm down.
- What?!
No.
I'm not calming down!
This kid is infuriating.
See? It's despicable, right?
That's it.
I thought the lie
was that you're super sad?
Yes, it was because I said
I have a boyfriend,
And you're proud of that?
You're unbelievable!
You're wasting the opportunity
to study because of that?
You infuriate me.
You're really unbelievable.
You're so
If you were my kid, I'd shave your head.
- And scrape the dry flakes off your scalp.
- Fine, I'm sorry.
I admit I made my parents mad at me.
- You bet!
- And I feel sorry about it.
So, we should be grateful for that?
- Stupid!
- Shithead.
I felt like
I haven't done anything right.
When I was in school,
I was always failing.
So, I tried to find
other things I was good at.
Well, you're good at getting boyfriends.
So, you got three
at the same time. Really?
Our generation
is not really into labels.
We're not old school,
where it's super formal.
So we just kinda went along with it.
Until they became a lot.
Sandy, could the problem
be your lack of respect?
Respect for your parents,
for other people,
for money, and for yourself.
Everything is just given to you now,
so you don't have to work hard
for anything.
I could not have said it better.
- What?
- What?
Isaac.
Hey, do you want some water?
I'm okay.
I'm okay.
I'm sorry you found out.
It hurts.
But I know I have no right to be,
since we're not a couple.
But how stupid of me.
It's because you love her.
That's true.
Tell me, what right do you have
to complain about life?
You're so selfish.
Do you realize that your parents
work their asses off
to send you to school?
Shut up! I'm not done talking!
Your problems make no sense at all.
You know what's your problem?
You.
You are your own problem!
You flirt with a lot of boys.
Then, when you feel guilty
about it, you hide.
You're so stupid! So infuriating!
Your excuses make me furious
because other people
are having a hard time in life.
C'mon, it's okay. Let it out.
What the heck, bro?
Pick on someone your own size.
Look, he's just a kid.
What?
I know what you're up to.
Are you gay?
Who... Why are you so malicious?
Who's gay, huh?
Why are you crying? Are you gay?
Hang on. Lose the attitude, will you?
And what's with the gay slur?
- What gay slur?
- Are you homophobic?
Homo what? No, I'm not.
So, you're not gay?
Why do you need to know?
So, you're not? Sorry, my bad.
I have no problem with gay people.
I support the LGBTQ. Sorry again.
Get a hold of yourself.
We're trying to help Isaac here.
Why do we need to help him?
Hey,
don't go crazy over that girl.
There are lots
of other girls out there, boy.
Let him be. Advise him later.
He's still in shock.
He has loved her for so long and yet
Relax and stay here for a while.
We'll leave him here?
I'll go
I'll go back there when I'm fine.
Alright. Don't take a nap
in this stinky place.
- Do you understand what I'm saying?
- Tere
- Tere
- Do you understand?
- You don't seem to.
- Tere, that's enough.
- Do you understand?
- That's enough.
She doesn't seem
- to understand me.
- I admit I'm bad.
- Will you please stop?
- Are you sure?
Everybody, stop talking. Okay?
Okay?
- Stop talking.
- It's just that
I was just trying
I was only reprimanding her.
- Were you arguing?
- I was only reprimanding her.
Should we go on or call it a day?
No!
What are you talking about? We go on!
Got it.
Let's go on till we're all dead drunk.
Here it is. Perfect.
Here we go.
What's that?
Just joking.
I wanna get drunk
Because you're now gone
I look in the mirror
And I am all alone
I kept alive the hibiscus plant
You returned to me
When we broke up
It's like my feelings
That refuse to die
Even if you pour beer on it
My love
I hope you don't...
What
What happened?
Why did you turn it off?
I'm not enjoying it.
You're the only one not enjoying it.
How about you two?
- That's mine.
- Hey, stop taking shots.
What are you crying for?
You look stupid.
Do they have chips or peanuts here?
But you haven't finished the crackers.
I asked cause the others
might like something else.
Guys, do you want anything?
How about you?
They're all good.
You might want something else.
You see, we all know how to be contented.
Unlike you, who easily
gets tired of things.
Okay. You don't have to shout.
I don't care!
I'll shout if I want to!
Fine!
You're all mad at me.
Perhaps you know why, right?
Because I'm a brat!
That's it!
Hold it. If you wanna talk,
can't you wait till you get sober?
No, leave them alone.
Or talk in private.
You can move over there.
No, they can stay here. I wanna hear it.
I have nothing to say.
I have a lot to say.
Explain it to me.
How can you afford to have
three boyfriends, huh?
I already explained that earlier.
- Let's move on to the next topic.
- No, you tell me first.
No one's moving on!
Explain to me why!
Why?
Explain it to me!
You have no respect for yourself
and other people, and you're mean.
When you hurt others, it's nothing to you.
It doesn't matter.
How can you do that?
And you're pretentious.
You're so pretentious.
What do you mean, "what is palutong"?
It's prawn crackers, dumb-ass!
We used to have that at the variety store
right across from our school.
What happened to you?
Do I need to explain it to you?
Yes, of course.
Why?
Because I love you.
I love you
Because I still believe
that the Sandy I knew is still there,
in your heart.
Where's the Sandy who used to be nice?
The Sandy who cared
about me and other people?
Where is the Sandy that I loved?
Bring her out!
Hilo
Indulge me.
That's for your parents.
This one's for Isaac.
Enough. Enough.
Enough.
She's being stubborn, irritating.
I'm good.
Are you okay?
We are three daughters in our family.
I'm the middle one.
My sisters are the prettiest
and brightest of us three.
So?
They're the favorites
of our grannies, uncles, and aunties.
I'm the sister
of the prettiest and brightest.
Since they're pretty and bright,
I had to find my place in our family.
So, I became the kindest.
I did my best at being kind.
I was a dutiful daughter,
a generous sister,
a respectful granddaughter,
and a good friend.
They say, what's important
is what's inside of you.
That's not true.
Physical beauty is also important.
I just want to be noticed.
To be praised.
You know?
To be appreciated. That sort of thing.
But then
I just took care of
My parents.
Then, they eventually passed on.
I have no one to take care of anymore.
That made me think.
So, what's my purpose now?
I have no purpose anymore.
That's when
I started to get
Scared.
Scared of being alone.
But things turned out for the better
because even at that age,
I was able to get married.
Good for you. You got a happy ending.
I thought it was a happy ending, too.
But no.
Because on our way
to our wedding reception,
we had an accident.
A delivery van hit my husband
on his side.
I thought I was going to be widowed.
But no.
My husband is alive.
He replaced my
I used to take care of my parents,
but now I take care of my husband.
You're awesome,
Tere. You're great.
A great fool!
But that's life, right?
That's how we love.
What's the matter?
Huh?
Sorry, but I find your story hilarious.
I know, right?
I'm so unlucky, it's ridiculous.
It's so exhausting!
It's so exhausting! Like yesterday,
I didn't get enough sleep.
Then, you dumb-ass bumped into me!
My mobile phone and wallet got stolen.
What bad luck, right?
I was ready to give up.
I despised God so much.
Right?
I just wanted to
You wanted to let go?
No, no.
No, I just wanted to disappear.
Sorry,
I lied.
I, too, felt like God did not love me.
Don't think like that, Tere.
God loves us all.
Sometimes, He just wants
to teach us a lesson.
Is it not enough?
Hasn't He taught me enough?
Perhaps, He wants to teach you to
love yourself?
It's not bad to grow tired.
But it's okay to take a rest.
It's okay to love oneself.
Tere, forgive me for asking,
but your accident
on the way to the reception
means you never went on your honeymoon?
Which means
You're being a virgin is
Not the lie?
Forgive me.
You can hit me, slap me, beat me up.
It's just so hilarious.
What the heck?
You're still a virgin at your age?
Yours might be covered with cobwebs now.
Just joking.
I'm trying to make you laugh.
Yours might say
So, this is the last shot.
Would you like to have it?
- I'm good.
- How about you?
- Pass.
- I'm good.
So, what's our group name going to be?
You might want to name our group?
Hell, you're corny.
Then you think of a name.
Ouch!
Stop making fun of me.
I meant the liquor, not you.
Okay.
For the group formed while fighting over
the last bottles of beer and gin.
There, I explained it.
Ew.
Delicious.
Hey, you're still here?
Hi. Good morning, Aunt Nori.
You told us to wait for you, right?
So we waited.
I'm up and about now.
I need to tidy up the place.
Sorry for the inconvenience, Aunt Nori.
Did you get anything from the store?
-Yes, we got coffee,
-No, we didn't.
Prawn crackers, four more bottles, and
- Candies.
- Aunt Nori
The usual. Put it on my tab first.
Makes sure you pay me by tomorrow.
Hey, have I ever broken my promise to pay?
Well, quite often.
But you still love me.
You know what?
If there is someone who is pitiful
to kill but irritating to spare,
you know what?
It's you.
Is that so? Thanks for nothing.
C'mon, time to go home.
You're not fit to go home yet.
Not fit
Do you think I'm irritating to spare?
C'mon, she was just joking.
Just joking? I don't think so.
Should I just be killed?
Snap out of it.
It's not like you.
No, Aunt Nori might have a point.
No.
Perhaps the world would be
a better place when I'm gone.
- Hilo, what's the matter?
- Hey.
I'm sorry.
C'mon, tell us.
Sorry, I'm so sleepy already.
Don't mind me.
Let's not do a guessing game
anymore. Speak up.
What do you want to know?
Everything. Your problems
I have lots.
You might be surprised.
You should have
slapped me earlier, not her.
C'mon, slap me.
Go on.
Bro.
C'mon, slap me. You don't want to?
Then I'll slap myself instead.
Oh, that hurts.
No, that hurts even more.
Take your time.
We'll listen to you
when you're ready to talk.
Hey.
I give up
I give up.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey, I need to go home now.
I'll go too.
My parents are looking for me already.
- Hilo.
- Hmm?
Go ahead. I'll stay behind.
Shall we call it a day?
Can you give a little
And you?
Are you alright?
I'm sober now.
Thanks.
It sure felt nice to let my emotions out.
No problem. Stay cool, okay?
Don't hurt anybody anymore.
See you.
We'll go ahead.
- Thank you.
- Thanks.
Thank you.
Take care.
Take care of her.
- Bring her home.
- Finish the coffee.
I'll leave it to you guys.
Go with them.
Don't wait up for me.
Come on.
No, I'll stay behind. Don't worry.
I don't mind being alone.
- Go ahead.
- I'm sorry.
You might be planning to do something bad.
Forget about it.
I won't kill myself. I'm afraid of hell.
Go ahead. I really want to be alone.
Was it painful?
C'mon, Aunt Nori. Join me.
What do you want?
- Let's chat first.
- Spare me, please.
I didn't get enough sleep.
Besides, stop sharing
your life's miseries.
I've heard about them lots of times.
I've got my own problems too, you know.
I'm sorry.
Just don't forget
- what you've learned today.
- What?
Your companions wanted to stay with you.
Why did you let them go?
- Wait a sec.
- Wait.
Where are we headed?
Wait. Come back.
What is it?
What's the matter?
What is it?
Look.
You see
I'm an idiot.
We know that already.
But I'm not a criminal.
I'm not a wanted man.
But I wronged my family big time.
That's why I don't wanna go home.
I can't go home.
Why did you not tell us that earlier?
Well, you shared your stories.
I figured it's only fair
that I share mine, too.
Do you need to talk about it?
No, I'm fine.
I was just worried
that you might misjudge me.
We probably might not see each other
anymore, so I just wanted to tell you.
Take care. I'll stay here for a while.
Hey.
No, go ahead.
What is it that you did, huh?
I'm lazy, so I wanted
an easy way to make money.
So, I got into gambling.
By the way, I lied too.
I'm addicted to gambling.
It was great at first cause it was easy.
I pawned some things to gamble,
then got them back when I won.
But then I got into deep debt.
I was forced to spend
other people's money.
I spent my in-law's money for medicine.
For her purchase of an oxygen tank.
My kid's savings.
When I ran out of money,
I mortgaged my in-law's house.
I gambled until I lost all that money.
Maybe you can still remedy your situation.
Why don't you find work,
so you can gradually pay your debt?
Who would not want to do that, right?
But I think I've run out of time.
My life is under threat right now.
What do you mean under threat?
My creditor has police connections.
Great, right?
So, what do you plan to do now?
Nothing.
I don't know what to do anymore.
My head hurts just thinking about it.
If you look at it from all angles,
it feels like
Their threat seems to be real.
It seems like they'll really kill me.
Oh my, that's dangerous.
I think you should
just stick with your family.
I've already put
my family's life in danger.
How much worse can I make it for them?
I don't go home, not because
I'm ashamed of myself.
I'm such a shameless person.
I don't go home
because I fear my family might
be threatened by my creditor as well.
You poor thing.
- Stop it.
- Come here, you.
You win the biggest problem award.
Don't get affected by my problem.
I'm just sharing my story.
That's why I don't like doing this.
- I really pity you.
- Don't pity me.
Fix your problem with your parents.
I'll handle the consequences
-of
-Sandy
- My actions.
- Yeah.
What do you mean yeah?
- Mom Dad
- Sandy.
I'm sorry.
- Are those her parents?
- Yes.
It's okay. You scared us to death.
You took a long time to come out.
Why? Have you been waiting long?
Since 11:00 p.m.
What? You've been here since last night?
I'm sorry, but
How did you find out where I was?
Wait, I forgot my bike.
Let's go.
Where to now?
Mom, Dad, I'm sorry.
For things too many to mention.
I'm really sorry
because I have done so many
shortcomings and wrongdoings against you.
So, we'll go over them one by one, okay?
But you're still grounded.
We'll return your privileges to you
once you've come to your senses.
And with all the consequences.
Can we give Isaac a ride?
Would you like to ride with us?
- Isaac.
- Come faster.
Is it okay?
They say I can ride with them.
What are you waiting for?
- C'mon, let's go so we can have breakfast.
- See you there.
Good morning, sir.
We're fine. Drive home safely.
Why are you crying?
I still have no answer
for what happened to me.
But I'd look
for the Sandy you knew.
I want to find her as well.
I'm fine with that.
Bye, everyone.
Bye.
Let's chat again soon.
- Sure.
- Sure.
Sure. Get home safely.
You wanna ride with us?
- No.
- No.
Can we?
- No, thanks.
- Can my bike fit
- Take care. Thank you.
- Thank you.
DM me on Facebook.
- What's your account name?
- Maria Teresa Catolico.
You have a nice name.
- Go ahead. God bless.
- Go ahead.
Your parents are waiting for you.
Take care.
Thank you.
I'm so sleepy.
Don't you want to ride with them?
- No.
- No, I'm fine.
Don't you want to go home?
The free breakfast
can relieve our hangover.
But seriously,
thank you for the drinks
and for everything.
If I'm not killed or put in jail,
let's meet again.
Of course. We can DM each other.
Is that a promise, not just lip service?
Of course not.
I'd like to know what's
the next chapter in your life story.
Okay. At our next get-together,
I'm hosting.
Okay. I'll go ahead. I'm really sleepy.
- Bye.
- Get home safely.
- You, too.
- C'mon, I'll bring you home.
No need. What do you take me for, a kid?
- C'mon.
- Hey, this is my bike.
Get your own.
You know, those guys
are just trying to scare you.
If ever, they'll just file
a police report on you.
They won't dare harm you.
If they do, they'll be the prime suspects.
And if they kill you,
then you won't have to pay them back.
Right?
You're really something, you know.
Can we do something about it?
My brother's starting to worry.
Sir, don't worry.
We're coordinating
with the other watchmen.
We can't report it yet to the police.
Sir, here she is.
What's going on?
Your husband has been worried about you.
He asked us to search for you.
He said you were missing.
My apologies.
Thanks, but I'm back now.
We'll go ahead.
What's the matter?
Huh?
I thought
You've left me.
I won't do that.
Perhaps
You're tired of taking care of me.
In sickness and in health, right?
For better and for worse.
I'd understand if you choose to
leave me.
Your life would be easier.
What are you talking about?
I'm fine.
I just needed to
Take a breather.
Has your brother taken all his meds?
Yes, all of them.
I just followed the list.
Thank you for looking after him.
What's wrong?
I'm back now.
Are you alright?
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.
You got scared, huh?
You
Issa! Your husband has returned.
Hurry! Go meet him.
- Where?
- He's been waiting there
for some time now.
Go ahead.
Hilo!
The nerve of you to show your face here!
The nerve of you!
And you're still alive, you jerk?!
It would be best if you're dead!
The nerve of you!
What are you doing here?
I wanted to see you.
You spent all my mom's money!
I'm sorry, love.
So what happens to us now, huh?
No, I'll look for a job.
I'll try everything. I won't give up.
That much I wanna promise you.
I won't run away anymore, love.
I'm sorry, love.
Please forgive me.
You reek of alcohol!
- You reek of alcohol.
- It's gone.
I've covered my mouth.
Love
You're lucky I love you.
It's my fault. Hit me. I can take it.
- Hit me.
- Don't do it again.
I won't do it again. I promise.
- I hate you!
- You can hurt me.
One more. I promise
I'll make it up to you.
Don't do it again.
I won't stop until I've repaid
all my shortcomings.
Father, please excuse me.
Perhaps my first sin is
I've already forgotten
how to make a confession.
But
My sins have already piled up.
First,
I spent money that is not mine
and got addicted to gambling.
That's the reason
why I neglected my family.
I lied and learned
to rip off other people.
I got angry at God.
The nerve of me, right?
That's why I haven't gone to church
and haven't prayed in a while.
And haven't even come to confession.
For now, that's all the sins
I can remember.
And oh, I haven't paid Aunt Nori yet.
She's the owner of my favorite eatery.
That's all.
In the parable of the lost sheep,
the shepherd was overjoyed
when he found it.
The Lord's joy is more than this
with your return to Him.
RG, is that you?
My goodness.
Hey, what are doing there?
Why are you dressed like that?
Oh.
You're playing a prank on me, aren't you?
Aren't you?
Is this a prank?
My God, now I've sinned even more.
Sorry, Father. I mistook you
for a pervert.
Sorry. Do I need to walk on my knees?
- There's no need.
- Walk back and forth?
No.
Shall we continue with your confession?
Ah yes, Father. Sorry again.
But I'm already done.
- I still need to say something.
- Oh, I see.
Okay.
Hilo, I want you to know
that God forgives you.
Just pray three Our Fathers,
three Hail Marys, and three Glory Be.
Yes, Father, please forgive me.
Thank you so much.
You haven't paid Aunt Nori yet?
Are you sure we came
to the right meeting place?
Yes, I got the address right.
Are you sure? Check again.
Isaac! Sandy!
- Hello!
- Hey.
- How are you?
- Hello!
Tere, how are you?
Long time no see.
I know.
I have good news.
I went back to school.
Wow, very good! Good for you.
Hold on
Are you together now?
Yes, we are.
Great! You did it.
I did her.
Oh!
Team Beergin!
- Hilo!
- Oh!
Do you recognize him?
What do you think?
Father?
Thank you for accepting my invitation.
- Wait.
- How are you?
Is that for real?
When I met you, I was on regency.
I was on leave from the church.
What the fu...?!
Calm down.
So, you're a priest.
May I ask, why were you on leave?
I needed time to think.
I prayed and waited for discernment
to ascertain my return to my vocation.
Sorry, I still don't get it.
So, what happened?
Let me see
Well, I met four people.
And in one whole night I spent with them,
I got my answer.
Answer to what question?
If this is really my calling.
You made me realize

I'd be able to guide more people,
and my life has more meaning.
Isaac
This is a calling.
It cannot be forced on anyone.
Life has so much joy
in serving the church,
especially since it's a gift from God.
Thank you for sharing
your wisdom with us, Father.
Let me kiss your hand.
Me, too.
Hold on.
- What?
- Father, you're pulling a fast one on us.
How so?
You said you'd host our next get-together.
Yes, I'm hosting now.
The bread and wine is on me during Mass.
- Oh great!
- Why?
He's holding us captive in church.

Oh, Father.
No need to hug.
You can just kiss his hand.
May I give you all a hug?
How have you been?
- I just went to confession.
- Have you mend your ways?
A little.
How about you? Are you still a virgin?
- Hey!
- Do a confession with me!
- You're next.
- It doesn't count.
I haven't sinned yet.
Hilo hasn't really changed.
