I'm mad at the Lord.

You're the one who's mad?!

Isn't he the Lord?

He can't get mad at me!

Sheesh!

What's that?

Does it look like a piano?

It's my gift for him.

Why?

How many times do I have to tell you...

that I don't want to see a guitar

in this house!

- I bought this myself!

- I don't care if you bought this!

I don't want him to remember Adora!

Move on!

- Don't!

- Come here.

That!

I deleted my Twitter profile last night...

I had too many followers,

but no one to be with.

- I saw you sitting by the window...

- That one!

You looked dazed...

Without earplugs in your ear.

You have a blog...

But it's on paper.

You play Farmville

At the backyard of your house.

You said you'll get cancer with your

gadgets...

So that's why you burned the Xbox of your

ex-girlfriend.

You're the one I like, baby.

I won't recommend you to someone else.

Thank you very much! Bye!

Don't ignore me, please.

You're the one I like, baby.

You're the winner till the end.

Everything I see in you, I already like.

Can I be your friend?

Tricycle!

- Tricycle!

- Can I be your friend?

Can I be your friend?

Joanna!

Hey!

Wait for me!

Then why didn't you know

he was your soul mate?

Because I didn't look back...

Oh... because "love is timing.

Mama!

Papa's here!

Kale, point the camera at papa!

Hi, girls! Kale! I missed you!

I have something for you!

This is my friend, Lucy.

I met her at an Asia-Pacific flight.

She's a stewardess.

Sandy...

This is what you asked, right?

A book of poems by Neruda.

Thank you, papa!

I had a hard time looking for that book.

I finally found it in Hong Kong!

I was surprised. You actually like poems?

Why?

Is there something wrong with poetry?

Silly poems.

Silly?

Are you calling our little artist silly?!

What do you read?

Tabloids? Porn?

Stop this!

You have some nerve...

Bringing this demon,

Lucy-fer, in my house!

Margaret, haven't we talked about this?

Open relationship?

Do you want me to open your skull

with this!

Ma...

It's just salad.

Ma.

It's nothing.

Here's the pork blood stew!

No!

Papa!

Papa...

You're leaving?

Papa, you're never coming back'?

I come home often, don't I?

Almost every month.

Papa...

It's not the same.

Your mom told you about the annulment,

right?

You don't love us anymore...

Sandy...

You're still my princess.

How about my mom'?

You don't love her anymore?

Sandy, I hope you understand.

Your mother and I...

We're only human.

We make mistakes.

Mistakes?

Sometimes...

Love can be a mistake.

Dan...

Sandy, I'm sorry.

Dan, give me a chance...

Let's talk about it another time.

Dan...

Dan, we're just here...

Dan...

That's when I realized...

That everything I used to know

about love...

Was a lie!

Hey, Sandy!

Let's go to N'Sync's concert in Manila.

Lance is such a heartthrob!

Why are you ripping your colored

drawings?

You're left with the black and white ones.

Because life is simple...

Black and white.

In love...

If you give your heart away...

it will be torn into pieces.

You'll be abandoned.

You'll be left hanging.

Until you end up...

soaking wet in the rain!

That's why before they leave me...

I'll be the first one to say, "Goodbye!"

So, since then,

it became your hobby to break hearts.

Hong Kong?

Edmond, we can't be together!

Really?

Kalibo's so far away.

Let's just send messages to each other.

Rehabilitation will take too long.

I don't want to be a nun.

Just forget me.

We have grown apart.

It's not you, Sam.

It's me.

I don't want to be with someone

who'll leave me.

I hope you understand.

Why are you like that?

You've hurt all those guys!

Karma will get back at you.

If you did that now,

you'd be trending on Twitter.

Philippines or worldwide?

Don't over-react!

Your imaginations are exaggerated!

Not really. I think you're too choosy.

Or you've become choosy

because you're afraid to be cheesy.

But you're not even that pretty.

- Wow! And you're gorgeous? I'm sorry...

- Excuse me...

For your information,

that face attracts Fil-Italians.

Wait a minute. What are you doing here?

- Let's go, let's go.

- Is this Showtime?

Back to work, you, nosy people!

But, to be fair...

I think they're right.

I'm sure you've become known as a

Blip-tease.

Blip-tease'?

Blip-tease. I don't want to say "cock. "

I- Hmm?

That's what Joanna told me as well.

Aren't you jealous of your siblings who

have happy relationships?

What?!

I also want love...

- But...

- But what?

Instead of getting heartbroken,

you'd rather be the heartbreaker? Right?

Correct!

I'm telling you, one day,

all men will disappear. I tell you!

Disappear?

It doesn't matter!

It doesn't matter if you're gone.

- Because I still love you more than my life

- I'm sorry. Take two!

Dude, you're putting the lyrics on the

wrong take.

Rewind it.

Kale...

Not having a father figure

really affected him...

but he turned all right.

Helena and her boyfriend Val seem to be

perfect for each other.

And when I see them, yes,

I feel a tinge of jealousy.

But when I see my mom...

who got attached with John Lloyd Cruz...

I'm reminded...

I don't want to be like her.

Hurry up! Put that in the pressure cooker.

That's our dinner later.

Ma'am, this is Carlo. Our new waiter.

Handsome, right?

You're accepted.

Thank you very much, Mrs. Macalintal!

Ma'am, look at him.

Fred's uniform suits him!

Shush!

It's a good thing it didn't go to waste

even if Fred's dead.

You're accepted.

We really need waiters just like you.

Because you're presentable.

Not like Tommy here.

- You're handsome.

- Of course.

But you know, I have a rule to be followed.

What's that?

A hardworking waiter does is useless if

their underarms smell like garbage!

Raise your hands and shout, Darna!

Do it. Darna!

Darna!

Okay

Hi Ma'am.

Because I'm falling in love...

'Coz I'm falling in love...

Because I'm falling in love...

'COz I'm falling in love...

with you.

Dude, let's have our snacks.

Or... are you snacking on something else

already?

Stop it, dude!

I'm not like that!

Is it a crime to look?

It's not that...

But that girl is notorious.

They call her Miss Cactus Heart.

Do you know why?

She's a plant lover?

No.

Because you'll only get hurt

if you get near her.

You know, every man that approached her

walked away heartbroken.

Then... I won't pursue.

I change my mind...

But man...

Just look at her.

She's beautiful. She's different from

everyone else.

Of course. Look at her.

You could just kiss her lips...

And her body... whoa!

Uh, dude. I'm not that kind of guy.

Admit it.

Waiter.

Yes ma'am? Why did you call me'?

Not you. I was talking to my friend.

But you called me, ma'am.

Anyway, going back.

Sandy, all I'm saying is...

The reason you don't like him

is because he's only a waiter.

Just like the other -ERs.

Wait-ER.

Drive-ER.

Carpent-ER.

But he's not just a waiter.

After catering, he has gigs with his band.

Band memb-ER.
