“You know what we’re dealing with? That guy’s a mad man. The only thing he wants is bloodshed.”
Having put two and two together, Melencio confronts his wife over how she’s gloriously turning their only son into a criminal. Pinggoy has a talk with Alyana about Cardo being right. Alyana recalls some incident from the past where her dad had been framed for bribing.
The CIDG deliberate on the bombing cases. As expected, Joaquin the jackass tries to rubbish the blurry still photo of Cardo’s suspect. Ignoring the insufferable man, Delfin mentions his certainty of there being a deeper reason behind the recent bombings.
The doctor announces to the family that Onyok can be taken home since he’s been doing well physically, adding that they need to continue his therapy so he can recover completely.
Joaquin the jackass calls congressman Subito to inform him of the CIDG’s suspect behind the bombing incident at the cinema. After the call, the overconfident congressman checks the MMS Joaquin just sent him.
“I tell you, it’s impossible,” Randolf says sarcastically.
“What’s wrong, congressman?” Charlie asks.
Randolf shows him his phone. “Is the guy in this blurry photo the one you got to plant the bomb at the mall?”
“That’s him, boss.”
The self-satisfied smile disappears from the congressman’s miserable face. Later, Charlie relays the info to Marlon, asking him to be more careful since they have another job. Marlon is obviously alarmed, even more so as Charlie threatens him and his family should he leave the group.
The two wretched families, the Tuazons and Subitos talk about the bombings and their miserable sons. Richmond is dealing drugs at the moment, thinking he’s untouchable because he’s the son of the congressman.
Fast foward Cardo promises to get justice for Onyok. He later brings him home.
Cita makes known her worries for Verna’s safety on account of the recent bombings. However, Tomas intervenes, asking her to let his wife focus on her “beloved” charity work.
“Can I tag along too?” Rachel asks.
“Baby girl, aren’t you scared there might be another bombing?” Cita prompts.
“Not now,” Tomas blurts out before he can even begin to think.
“Not now?”
“I meant… I’ll come along…so you don’t have to worry.”
Elmo, Yolly and the others discuss Onyok’s condition with their neighbors. Meanwhile at the hospital, Tomas and Clarissa put on a make-believe show at the expense of Verna, the doctor and all the other victims.
Cardo reveals to Delfin and Carreon about his run-in with the suspect at the mall, just as Don Emilio, Tomas and Randolf talk business and evil intentions. The two miserable old men are excited and eager to keep on with the bombings. However, Tomas isn’t a happy camper.
After a cartographic sketch is made of the perpetrator, the rest of the CIDG team is informed and charged to keep the info confidential. Meanwhile, once the congressman’s gone, Tomas approaches his father-in-law.
“You know what we’re dealing with?” Tomas begins. “That guy’s a madman. The only thing he wants is bloodshed.”
“That is exactly what we need in our business,” Emilio states.
At CIDG headquarters, Cardo runs into Alyana, who tries to milk him for information regarding the recent bombings. Doesn’t go as planned. Later, she pays a visit to the Quezon precinct, where an officer hands over a case file to Jerome containing a sketch of the bomber. After all the officers leave to attend a meeting with the chief, Alyana goes through Jerome’s drawer and takes a shot of the sketch before slipping away.
Alyana is having second thoughts about releasing the photo. Soon enough, she informs her dad about it, who makes a pretty good guess that she stole it. As Alfred the obnoxious boss listens in, Teddy reasons with her daughter that there’s a reason why the police haven’t released the sketch to the public. Eventually, Alyana decides against using the hardcopy of the sketch and resorts to dumping it in the trashcan. After they leave, Alfred pick it up.
The next morning, a neighbor shows Flora the newspaper featuring the sketch of the bomber. While Teddy has a war of words with Alfred at the media house, Cardo and Delfin find out about the matter. At CIDG headquarters, Delfin wonders who leaked the sketch.
An officer walks in. “We just got a tip from Sta. Barbara. Someone recognized the man from the cartographic sketch.”
Melencio hurries home to alert his family about the incoming police, urging them to go into hiding. As the CIDG close in on their location, Linda insists on staying behind while Marlon makes a run for it.
Joaquin the jackass takes the lead. “Ma’am, we have an arrest warrant and a search warrant… for Linda and Marlon Aguilar.”
A faceoff ensues. The episode ends as Cardo looks on, unknown to them that Marlon is escaping through the back.
