You ought to be ashamed for yourself.

This is just a normal day for me.

This is what I have to wake up to in the morning

every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

I have no choice.

Every zoology major has to take her class.

But I can still be favorable to her.

I was forced by Dad to take zoology.

And medicine too.

Nonsense.

And another late one again! Glucero Jr.!

Do you think this is a cinema theatre?

That you can just come to class any time you want?

I guess, after all, we just do whatever we want.

And this is what I have decided to do.

I guess this is what I've been looking for.

They say Alpha Kappa Omega's big around here.

The most notorious fraternity in the campus.

The first trial. Companionship.

What's your name?

Arni

- Arnulto Enriquez.

- How f***ing disrespectful!

- Didn't your parents teach you at all?

- From now on, you refer to us as "Master".

- What now!?

- Yes, Master.

Now, what's your name?

Arnulto Enriquez, Master.

Why do you want to join our frat?

My friend. He convinced me to.

- You're stupid for listening to him then.

- I'd like to explain, Master.

- Don't f***ing speak to us in English.

My father was a frat alumnus.

So what do you want to happen!?

- Nothing, Master.

- Do I look like your dad?

- No, master.

- Then, why do you still keep speaking in English!?

- I didn't.

- Shut up.

- That was in English, master.

Just relax.

Are you nervous?

A bit, master.

Tell me. Why are you here?

They say it's good in a frat. I can meet some friends.

So, have you ever gotten laid?

He said, have you ever gotten laid!?

Of course, Master.

Really? News is, you haven't yet.

Now, what?

N-no, I haven't yet, master.

- So, you're still a virgin then?

- No, master.

I have a wife, sir.

Oh, my prof's trying to humour us.

- How many wives do you have?

- Only one, master.

You plan to have another one?

- If only I could, master.

- What an arrogant f*** you are!

You're already old.

Why the hell do you want to join our frat?

How many children do you have?

None yet, master.

So, you're impotent?

No, master.

- Then, why no children then?

- Family planning, sir.

Is your girlfriend's b*obs big?

- Answer.

- Just average, master.

How about her legs?

Maybe, her legs are full of scabs.

- No. No scabs.

- Oh, you really know about those stuff.

You f*** her a lot, don't you?

Answer. You get to f*** her often, don't you?

No, not that often, master.

8 out of 15 got accepted by the neophytes.

They're pretty tough and uptight.

What monsters. Strange how their minds work.

Just in the interrogation, almost half failed.

I feel okay now. I'm past the first phase.

Now this is the real thing.

- Bautista?

- Here, Master.

- Arni Enriquez?

- Here, master.

- Ledesma?

- Here, master.

- Sid Lucero?

- Here, master.

- Pete Magtibay?

- Here, master.

- Quintos?

- Here, master.

- Roxas, Jr.?

- Here, master.

- Santi Santillan?

- Here, master.

- Santi Santillan!?

- Here, master!

They don't look like such a bad group.

We're probably insured on this one.

- They also look like chopsuey altogether.

- Oh, yeah.

There's an old geezer.

There's a dweeb here.

Another one here.

And another dweeb here.

- And a mestizo. This one right here seems objectionable, brod.

Oh right, before anything else, let me introduce ourselves.

I'm Vince.

And here's my buddy, Gonzales.

But...

But when you're in the company of all of us, you call us...?

Master!

Right. I like this group.

- Santillan!

- Sir. O-oh, master.

It's hot, isn't it?

- Not really, master.

- It is, I say.

Yes, indeed. It is hot here, master.

- Then you have to take your shirt off then. STRIP!

- Tee-hee. They're handsome, aren't they?

- I get to have the handsome one, okay?

- STRIP!

- Sure, yours is the beefy one then.

- STRIP!

- Don't mind those women.

- Strip!

- Oh, what a great body.

No, yours is the darker guy.

Tall, dark, and handsome, huh?

- Santillan

- Yes, master?

- Still hot?

- Not anymore, master.

- It's still hot.

- Yes, of course, it is, master.

- Take your shoes off. STRIP!

Ouch!

- Why do you wear worn-off socks!?

- Sorry, master.

Quintos.

- Still hot?

- It's still hot, master.

- You're right.

Take the pants off now.

- STRIP!

Don't take notice of Grace and the others.

That's just their trip.

Look at them. This happens only once and a while.

Okay. Strip!

- Lucero, is it still hot?

- Master.

- It's still hot?

- Yes, master. It's still hot.

- Take your underwear off then.

Master, someone might get shocked.

- Strip!

- Strip.

What the hell? This is too much!

If you're still staying, I'm not.

I can't take this anymore! I'm quitting!

I quit.

- Get off me.

- Hey, you f***ers, give me back my clothes.

- Alright.

Anyone who doesn't want to strip, you can quit.

If you don't want to follow us, the initiation's all over.

All of you are out of the frat.

There. Be like Santillan.

Respectable teacher.

- He immediately stripped off.

- This bird is not going to fly anywhere.

Don't worry. The windows are closed.

- Isn't it embarassing for your guests?

- No, not really.

Now, what are you waiting for?

- Strip!

Go on.

Come on. Go on.

Alpha. Omega.

The first and last letters of the Greek alphabet.

Kappa. The Greek letter, K.

Alpha. Omega.

The beginning. And the end...

is the fraternity.

That is also the first line of our fraternity creed.

All our objectives, ideals and spirit of our frat are stated

in that creed.

From this day on, let this creed be a part of

your real life.

Our frat was founded in 1951.

If you think we were taking it easy with you...

Ask Ronnie Roxas, Jr.

His father was one of the illustrious fellows

and founding fathers.

But when it comes to the initiation,

everyone has it the same.

You have to pass all of the sessions.

No monkeying around and brawls

that we haven't talked about.

But you just have to deal with it when a master gets a chance

to meet you outside the frat.

You're free when you're in class.

Or if you're with a girlfriend.

Or a family member. Don't worry.

We don't do this just to inflict pain.

All of this is for the frat.

Alright?

Assume position.

Hold your balls.

On your mark.

Get set. Go.

Move. Move. Quick! This is going to take all day.

You can take it.

Yes. You can deal with it.

You just have to resist the pain.

Just endure it.

You can take it.

Alpha. Kappa. Omega.

- Alpha kappa omega.

- The fraternity is the beginning and the end of it all.

- The frat is the beginning and the end of it all.

- Just like the feet, the hands and the eyes.

Just like the feet, the hands and the eyes.

Not able to function by oneself.

Not able to function on one's own.

More than unity, brotherhood is what

our fraternity plans to achieve.

Don't resist the right path.

So we won't go away from the right path.

Justice.

- Courage.

- We won't stand still when there's oppression.

We won't stand still when there's oppression.

All are equal in the eyes of the law.
