00:22 Gio! There's no shampoo here!
00:25 Can you please get me some shampoo?
00:29 Hey Gio!
00:31 Dear Alduin, I've had enough.
00:48 I'm taking Sammy with me and will be staying at my mom's for a while.
00:53 Please don't follow me.
00:55 I would appreciate it if you don't call me or look for me.
00:59 I'll be sending you the divorce papers.
01:02 I'm sorry that I have to leave you.
01:04 But all I know is, I'll be more sorry if I don't.
01:09 Take care of yourself.
01:11 Love, Gio.
01:13 Good evening to all of you.
01:18 I hope that you will come here from San Francisco, California
01:23 where a Filipino, the first Filipino actress,
01:28 became a member of the cast of the top rated TV drama
01:31 that won an ER here in America.
01:35 But the journey was not easy to fulfill her dreams.
01:42 My friends, this is your host, the life story of Giovanni Pico.
01:50 In the end, Giovanni grew up.
01:53 Like many Filipinos, his parents dreamed that Senon and Merle would come to America.
02:01 Senon!
02:02 Here you go.
02:03 Mom!
02:04 Senon!
02:05 I'm about to go to America.
02:08 Did you get the visa?
02:09 Yes.
02:10 Here it is.
02:12 Thank God.
02:13 Yes.
02:14 My prayers were answered.
02:17 You will continue to live.
02:18 Yes, Mom.
02:19 Mom, look at this.
02:22 Here.
02:23 Senon, why?
02:32 What happened to you?
02:34 Why did you suddenly go there?
02:37 Don't you feel happy?
02:41 It's good that you're happy and I'm worried about your jeep's sale.
02:45 Because if you go there, you'll forget us.
02:49 Sus, is that possible?
02:54 Didn't we talk about this?
02:56 That I'll go to America first and then you'll go next.
03:00 Then my mom, then Clenclen.
03:04 Because our friend's friend,
03:09 who's husband went to America,
03:12 he didn't write or call.
03:15 Then he heard that his American husband is already there.
03:19 Oh, my.
03:21 Can I do that to you?
03:24 I know all your hard work,
03:26 I just went to America.
03:28 I will never forget everything.
03:31 That's enough.
03:32 We should be happy.
03:34 Isn't that what you've been dreaming for a long time?
03:36 Right, Clenclen?
03:38 Yes.
03:39 I'm really nervous.
03:41 Show your mom how good you are at dancing.
03:45 I'll teach you.
03:46 Dancing?
03:47 Let's see, my child.
03:48 My child is so good.
03:50 She'll just stand here in the sofa.
03:52 Merlin went to America for the first time.
03:55 A few months passed,
03:57 followed by Senon, Nitz and Giovanni.
04:01 They also did TNT here in America for a few years.
04:04 It's a thing that their family has been trying for a long time.
04:08 This is like life.
04:22 Hey, Merlin.
04:27 Yes?
04:28 Come here.
04:29 Why?
04:30 Are you cooking?
04:33 I'm hungry.
04:34 Senon, what's wrong with you?
04:39 I've been tired of overtime for three days.
04:42 You cook.
04:45 Let me rest.
04:46 I told you to get up.
04:54 Cook for me.
04:56 I'm tired.
04:57 I just got off work.
04:59 I'm still hungry.
05:01 I'm going to eat this.
05:02 Senon, we're not in the Philippines anymore.
05:06 So you can't order me around like that.
05:08 We both work.
05:10 We're both tired.
05:11 If you want to eat, cook for yourself.
05:13 Is that so?
05:16 Is that how we are here now?
05:18 Just like that?
05:19 Ever since we came to America,
05:22 you think you're someone important.
05:24 Why are you looking for something bigger than me?
05:26 You're hiring me so you won't get tired of me.
05:28 Why?
05:30 Is it my fault if I earn more?
05:34 Because my job is better than yours?
05:36 And you?
05:38 You're content with what you have.
05:41 We're here in America.
05:43 You need to be good at gambling.
05:45 You know what?
05:47 If you're good,
05:49 we should have our own house and car by now.
05:52 But no.
05:53 I'm the only one who's pursuing this.
05:55 So here,
05:57 we're still here,
05:58 still in your house.
06:00 You're exaggerating!
06:01 No! Try it!
06:02 Try it.
06:04 Try to look at my face.
06:07 I'll leave you.
06:08 Mommy!
06:20 Clint!
06:23 Clint!
06:25 I lost the game.
06:27 Will I die?
06:29 No, you won't die.
06:31 What are you doing with that gun?
06:33 I bought this for our protection.
06:39 Protection?
06:40 My son is about to die.
06:44 Protection?
06:45 You're going to leave it here?
06:47 Mommy!
06:50 What are you waiting for?
06:55 What are you doing?
06:56 Move!
06:57 Wherever you go,
07:12 you can't bring the child with you.
07:14 I'll bring my son.
07:18 I'm the mother.
07:20 He should go to me.
07:22 Are we going to split up?
07:25 Yes.
07:26 And my son and I,
07:27 if you don't agree,
07:29 I'll report this to the police.
07:31 I'll tell them that you're the owner of the gun.
07:34 My son is about to die.
07:36 I don't want this to happen.
07:41 If I had split up with you,
07:44 this wouldn't have happened.
07:46 None of this would have happened
07:48 if we didn't go to America.
07:49 You're the only one who wants to go here.
07:53 And I was stupid.
07:54 Now,
07:57 all your dreams have come true.
07:58 You're here.
07:59 But what?
08:01 Your family is ruined.
08:03 Merly moved to an apartment
08:12 with Grandma Nitz and Giovanni.
08:15 Giovanni's father is busy with his business.
08:22 Wait, wait.
08:23 Don't go yet.
08:24 I don't want to.
08:25 What?
08:29 I don't want to.
08:31 I don't want to.
08:35 I'm going to sleep.
08:42 I'm going to sleep.
08:43 I'm going to sleep.
08:46 [music]
08:48 Nuan!
08:55 Nuan!
08:56 Where are you going?
08:57 Don't leave me here.
08:58 Stop me.
08:59 Nuan, please.
09:01 I promise.
09:02 I won't be jealous anymore.
09:05 I won't follow you to work.
09:06 I'll change.
09:08 Please.
09:10 How many times have you told me that?
09:11 When did you trust me?
09:14 I told you that I don't have a girlfriend.
09:16 And Merly and I are not together.
09:18 It's all in your head.
09:20 I think you should see a doctor.
09:23 It's painful.
09:24 You're going to get sick.
09:25 Nuan,
09:26 forgive me.
09:27 Forgive me.
09:28 I love you.
09:29 Don't leave me here.
09:31 I won't do it again if you're not here.
09:33 I'm tired of you.
09:36 If you don't want to leave,
09:38 we'll leave.
09:40 [door slams]
09:41 Vivian,
09:54 leave.
09:55 I don't want to.
09:56 Just tell me how to end this.
09:59 I told you to leave.
10:01 No.
10:03 Just kill me.
10:07 Just kill me.
10:09 How dare you?
10:14 You're embarrassing your neighbor.
10:16 Nuan,
10:18 I love you so much.
10:20 Please forgive me.
10:21 Don't leave me.
10:22 Please forgive me.
10:24 Nuan.
10:26 Giovanni felt the separation of his parents.
10:33 And it seems that he was hurt
10:36 by the bad treatment of the woman
10:38 who was with his father.
10:41 Why are you crying?
10:45 You were crying earlier.
10:50 Did my dad leave you?
10:55 Why?
11:04 I miss my son.
11:06 I left him in the Philippines.
11:10 I can't bring him here.
11:14 His dad doesn't want him here.
11:18 You can write to him.
11:23 Or you can call him.
11:26 [sobbing]
11:28 You know,
11:37 whenever I see you,
11:39 I remember my son.
11:42 You look like Patricia.
11:45 Because you're the same age as her.
11:48 Can you be my son?
11:56 You're Patricia?
11:58 Why don't you answer me?
12:04 Are you mad at me because I left you in the Philippines?
12:07 Don't you love me anymore?
12:09 Don't you love mommy anymore?
12:11 You're not my real mommy.
12:16 Don't say that.
12:19 I'm your mommy.
12:21 I'm your mommy now.
12:23 Do you understand?
12:24 [screams]
12:25 Sorry, Patricia.
12:37 Oh, my.
12:39 I'm sorry.
12:42 I won't do it again.
12:46 I'm so sorry.
12:48 Come to mommy.
12:51 I won't do it again.
12:53 Promise.
12:54 I'll go now.
12:56 Lie down here.
12:57 Lie down on my lap.
12:59 Come on, my child.
13:01 Lie down here.
13:02 There.
13:05 I miss my son.
13:10 I miss Patricia.
13:14 You're my son now.
13:18 Okay?
13:22 [music]
13:23 I'm not going inside.
13:32 [screams]
13:50 Mommy, I'm going to die.
13:53 Baby, baby, baby.
13:55 I'm sorry.
13:57 Baby, I didn't mean to hurt you.
13:59 I'm sorry.
14:00 I'm sorry.
14:01 Forgive mommy.
14:03 Baby.
14:05 Why?
14:06 What's going on here?
14:07 Why are you crying?
14:09 You said you're going to kill me.
14:12 What did you do to the child?
14:16 Nothing.
14:18 Your son is so annoying.
14:20 He always makes me suffer.
14:21 You're lying.
14:23 What you're saying is not true.
14:25 Who is it?
14:27 Do you believe in a child?
14:28 Is he a child?
14:29 What kind of stories does he invent?
14:32 You're lying.
14:33 You're lying.
14:35 I didn't do anything to mommy.
14:38 Non, stop.
14:39 Stay here.
14:40 You're just like him, Non.
14:45 I didn't do anything.
14:48 I don't believe in him.
14:50 I don't believe.
14:51 I told you to stop.
14:54 Why don't you believe me?
14:59 I'm your child.
15:01 Why don't you believe me?
15:03 Stop.
15:11 Giovanni was forced to join the power of his mother.
15:15 But their collaboration didn't work out.
15:18 Because during this time, Giovanni really wanted to be an artist.
15:23 And he's looking for a talent agent for his mother.
15:27 But Merly doesn't want to follow her and her son's desire.
15:30 Something that they often ask.
15:34 Why didn't you get me an agent?
15:37 Why didn't you help me?
15:39 The artist is like that.
15:41 He can talk to the producers on TV or in movies.
15:44 It's not that easy.
15:47 We don't have money.
15:48 He doesn't need money.
15:51 And my classmate said that he already paid.
15:55 Gio, stop me.
16:00 I'm late for my work.
16:02 And stop your dreams.
16:04 Why don't you want to?
16:08 I told you that you should believe me.
16:10 You should know that I can do it.
16:12 Support me, auntie.
16:13 What?
16:15 Didn't you hear me?
16:16 We don't have money.
16:17 Stop your dreams so that we can save money.
16:23 You're a liar.
16:25 Don't talk to me like that.
16:27 Don't forget that I'm still your mother.
16:30 I hate you.
16:32 I hate you and dad.
16:34 You don't love me.
16:37 Gio!
16:38 Gio!
16:40 But what's worse than Giovanni's relationship with his mother
16:46 is what happened with this man.
16:49 Robert, an Italian-American.
16:52 Gio, come here.
16:54 Why?
16:56 I want to show you something.
16:57 What?
16:58 Look at this.
16:59 What's that?
17:00 Don't tell me you haven't seen this before.
17:01 Come here.
17:03 I want to take a look.
17:04 I don't want to look at that.
17:05 I'm not going to hurt you.
17:06 I just want you to see the pictures.
17:08 I don't want to see that.
17:09 Listen, you want to be an actress, right?
17:11 This is a good start for you.
17:13 Just take a look.
17:14 I don't want to see that picture.
17:16 Come here.
17:17 Don't touch me!
17:19 You want me, don't you?
17:20 You want to see me play with myself, don't you?
17:23 You know you want to watch this.
17:25 Gio, come here.
17:29 Gio!
17:30 Gio!
17:31 What's wrong?
17:59 Mommy, it's Robert.
18:01 What about Robert?
18:03 Earlier, when he was reading a magazine,
18:09 he was reading about naked women.
18:13 Then, he forced me to look at it even though I didn't want to.
18:19 I'm scared.
18:24 Leave him.
18:26 He's already dead.
18:27 I can't do that.
18:30 I can't do that.
18:32 Gio, it's not that easy.
18:34 Why not?
18:36 He's a bad person.
18:39 We should put him in jail.
18:41 I can't leave Robert.
18:45 We need him, Gio.
18:47 You're the only one who needs him.
18:52 He's the only one.
18:53 Do you know what will happen if I leave Robert?
19:00 We might get caught.
19:03 We might just end up sleeping on the street.
19:05 But, Mommy.
19:10 Why don't you stay with your friends or go to your room?
19:19 Avoid him. You should avoid him.
19:22 Okay?
19:24 Giovanni let his grandmother Nitz live with him.
19:32 She has her own life now.
19:34 She's living with her new husband, Grandpa Jerry.
19:38 You might get sick.
19:40 Thank you, Grandma.
19:43 You can always stay here with us.
19:48 I don't want you to feel that no one loves you anymore.
19:51 It's really hard to understand your situation.
19:55 Especially when you're still a child.
19:58 Do you know?
20:01 Your mom was so angry when she gave birth to you.
20:06 She didn't tell me.
20:10 I was so angry with your mom.
20:15 Because she was still a child.
20:18 But when I saw how beautiful my grandson was,
20:22 all my anger was gone.
20:25 Maybe,
20:30 maybe that's why Mommy and Daddy are mad at me.
20:33 Because they feel that I ruined their life.
20:37 It's not like that.
20:40 Don't think like that.
20:44 Your dad and mom love you so much.
20:46 I know that.
20:48 Why don't I feel that?
20:53 Okay, let's have some chocolate.
21:03 Feel warm.
21:05 Gio, it's delicious to have Grandpa Jerry's tempering.
21:08 Try it.
21:10 Thank you.
21:13 You have?
21:14 It's delicious.
21:16 You can stay here as long as you like.
21:19 Giovanni became close to his grandmother Nitz and Grandpa Jerry.
21:24 Grandpa Jerry is also his stepfather.
21:27 Giovanni entered a theater school.
21:30 And here, he became more passionate in art.
21:35 He also met many new friends here.
21:38 Including Filipino-American Aldwin.
21:43 Gio, hey.
21:44 Hey, Aldwin.
21:46 Hi.
21:48 So, are you going home?
21:50 Yeah, actually I'm just waiting for my grandpa.
21:52 Why?
21:54 Well, I want to know maybe if you want to go out and get a bite to eat or something.
21:57 No, sorry I can't.
22:00 I'm waiting for my grandpa.
22:02 He's coming here anytime now.
22:04 Okay, how about Friday?
22:06 Friday?
22:08 Nothing really special.
22:11 Great, so that means that we can go out.
22:13 Out? Are you asking me for a date?
22:16 Yeah.
22:18 You're kidding me.
22:20 Why would I be kidding?
22:22 You want to be seen with me?
22:25 Why not?
22:27 It just amazes me that someone wants to be seen with me.
22:31 Okay, honestly, I think you're pretty.
22:34 And to tell you the truth, I kind of like you.
22:38 I kind of like you.
22:39 So, Friday, it's a date.
22:45 Hi.
22:59 Who's that?
23:01 My classmate.
23:03 You're being courteous to your grandpa, right?
23:05 Grandpa, really.
23:07 Are you okay?
23:08 I'm okay.
23:10 Are you ready?
23:12 Okay, let's go.
23:14 No, no. What I mean is, are you ready to fall in love?
23:19 Grandpa, really? You're so jealous.
23:22 Grandpa, are you okay?
23:27 Yes, yes, I'm okay. I'm alright.
23:30 Are you sure? Let's go to your doctor.
23:33 No, no, no, let's go, let's go.
23:36 No problem. Let's go.
23:38 Gio,
23:43 Ma, why are you here?
23:46 You two talk.
23:49 You two talk.
23:50 Gio, Robert and I are separated.
24:12 Well, good for you.
24:18 I heard from your grandma that you're going to an acting school.
24:23 That's good.
24:26 Your dreams will come true.
24:29 I want you to know that I'm proud of you.
24:33 When did you think of that?
24:36 Gio,
24:42 I know I'm lacking a lot in you.
24:48 But,
24:49 I hope you can forgive me.
24:53 I want to be with you again.
24:57 We can live together.
25:02 I've saved enough money for the two of us.
25:09 Join me.
25:12 Do you know that I bought a house?
25:15 It's small but at least,
25:20 we'll be together.
25:24 That's what's important, right?
25:26 I miss you so much.
25:31 Go home with me.
25:41 [sniffles]
25:42 Grandpa Jerry's health is getting worse.
26:04 And because of this, Merly went back to the Philippines.
26:09 Giovanni moved to a local school.
26:11 And just like what he expected,
26:13 he had a hard time adjusting to his new surroundings.
26:16 Grandpa, why?
26:22 Why did you get up? Do you need anything?
26:31 Nothing.
26:33 Nothing.
26:35 Nothing.
26:36 I just want to know what's bothering my grandson.
26:51 Liya,
26:55 don't you like it here?
26:58 I don't know yet.
27:04 It's just that I have a hard time adjusting here.
27:07 My classmates treat me like an alien.
27:14 Don't worry, Liya.
27:20 You'll get used to it.
27:24 But I miss my classmates in the States,
27:30 the acting school.
27:33 I really want to be an actress, Grandpa.
27:36 That's my dream.
27:38 To be known, to be different.
27:42 Don't worry.
27:44 All of that will come at the right time.
27:49 You know, if God wills me to have reasons
27:56 why I need to live longer,
28:00 I will only have one answer.
28:04 What is it?
28:06 I will tell Him that I really want to live longer
28:12 so that I can see that all of my dreams have come true.
28:20 Good girl.
28:25 Grandpa loves you.
28:28 Thank you.
28:29 But it didn't take long for Grandpa Jerry to get old.
28:34 As Grandpa Jerry got older,
28:43 and because he still can't accept the changes in his life,
28:48 Giovanni's desire to return to America grew stronger.
28:53 Mom, let me go back to the States.
28:57 I don't want to stay here anymore.
28:58 I told you that you'll get used to it.
29:02 I don't want to stay here anymore.
29:06 I tried, I tried so hard.
29:09 But all of my classmates don't like me, they're mad at me.
29:13 I don't have any friends here.
29:15 This place doesn't seem like it's for me.
29:19 Let me go back to the States.
29:24 Che, I have a lot of plans for you here.
29:26 I want you to study here.
29:28 I want you to get to know our relatives better.
29:32 I know it's hard for you, especially now that Grandpa Jerry is dead.
29:37 But it already happened.
29:41 We need to accept it.
29:43 You need to get used to it.
29:45 This is our life now.
29:48 To the surprise of Merly, Giovanni asked his father to send him a ticket to America.
29:55 Dear Ma, I'm really sorry.
29:59 I'm going back to America.
30:02 I really can't stay here.
30:04 I'll go to my dad first.
30:07 I hope to see you soon.
30:09 Love, Gio.
30:11 Are you leaving?
30:14 Yes.
30:17 Giovanni, where are you going?
30:20 Mom, let me go.
30:22 No.
30:24 Mom, please.
30:26 Mom, let me go.
30:28 No, I won't let you go.
30:30 I won't let you go.
30:32 Mom, please.
30:34 I won't let you go.
30:37 Please, Mom.
30:38 I won't let you go.
30:40 Giovanni was convinced not to go to America.
30:59 But after a few months, he went there.
31:03 He met Giovanni and Aldwin again.
31:05 They became members of an unusual "Born Again" Christian group.
31:12 Aldwin, can I ask you something?
31:14 Yes, what is it?
31:16 You know that you're my first boyfriend, right?
31:18 Yes.
31:20 Am I also your first girlfriend?
31:22 I know it's crazy, but you know that our group is kind of strict about the rules, right?
31:31 Um, we can't be together if we already slept with other people.
31:37 Yeah, I know that.
31:39 Aldwin, I've remained a virgin all these years, but what about you?
31:46 Am I also your first girlfriend?
31:49 Of course you are.
31:51 You're my first and hopefully my last.
31:53 What do you mean?
31:56 Giovanni,
32:00 I've been wanting to do this for some time now.
32:02 I know that we can't be together unless we're married.
32:07 And I want to be with the person that I will love forever and cherish forever.
32:13 Giovanni,
32:16 will you marry me?
32:19 Of course.
32:23 I'm not sure I can do that.
32:25 I'm not sure I can do that.
32:28 Of course.
32:29 I'm not sure.
32:34 Giovanni and Aldwin got married in 1996.
32:47 But after their child was born,
32:51 Giovanni slowly realized that he made a big mistake in asking Aldwin to marry him.
32:58 Alvin, I'm going out.
33:13 What?
33:16 I said I want to go out.
33:18 Why?
33:21 I just want to buy a few things.
33:23 What do you want? Just tell me what it is you want and I'll buy it for you.
33:28 I want to eat hamburger.
33:31 You want to eat what?
33:33 A hamburger.
33:35 You can't eat a hamburger. You're a vegetarian.
33:38 Vegetarians don't eat meat. Don't you know that?
33:41 But I'm starving.
33:43 If you're going to make me eat another vegetable salad, I'm going to throw up.
33:48 No. You can't go outside. You can't eat meat. Trust me. Okay? You'll get sick.
33:54 I'm sick. I'm sick of the food. I'm sick of this house. I'm sick of your attitude.
34:01 And I'm totally sick of your... I'm totally sick of this relationship.
34:06 Watch your mouth.
34:09 I'm going out.
34:12 Hey! Stop! Hey! You can't... You can't go out.
34:17 You can't do this.
34:18 Let me out!
34:19 You can't go out.
34:20 No! I'm going out.
34:21 Listen to me. You can't go out.
34:22 Help! Help! I'm going out!
34:23 Listen to me! You can't go out. What is wrong with you?
34:26 Listen! Listen! Listen! Listen!
34:30 I'm going out. I'm going out.
34:33 You listen to me! Listen!
34:39 [dramatic music]
34:41 Listen!
34:48 Listen!
34:51 Listen!
34:54 Baby, wait! I'll just get some milk.
35:01 Listen to me.
35:04 I'm going out.
35:06 I'm going out.
35:07 I...
35:11 I don't have milk.
35:15 I love you.
35:17 Baby!
35:20 I'm going out.
35:26 What are you going to do?
35:31 Baby!
35:33 Baby, wait!
35:36 What's up, Granny?
35:37 Mama's here.
35:39 God, help me.
35:46 Baby.
36:00 [TV playing]
36:21 What are we doing here?
36:23 I'm going to meet up with some of my friends.
36:25 You mean, you're going to leave me alone?
36:28 Yeah, do you have a problem with that?
36:30 Let's go home. I'm tired.
36:32 I don't care if you're tired, okay?
36:34 My friends are here. They want to see me. They're waiting for me.
36:37 Just stay in the car.
36:39 No! Give me the keys.
36:40 Why would I give you the keys?
36:42 Look, if you want to go home, just take a cab.
36:45 Jerk.
36:47 Listen, stay in the car and shut your mouth, okay?
36:52 Don't leave. Just wait in the car.
36:57 Giovanni chose her as his girlfriend.
37:00 He doesn't want to embarrass his family and friends.
37:04 Nancy, his talent agent, became his escape when he had a problem.
37:10 That guy is a real jerk.
37:12 You ended up marrying him still positively.
37:15 I know. But I was so in love with him.
37:18 And he's so not into you.
37:21 I don't know what to do.
37:25 What should I do?
37:26 You're asking me what you should do?
37:30 Haven't you heard since day one that I said that you married a monster?
37:36 You better end it now.
37:39 Or you might blow his brains out.
37:42 I don't know.
37:45 All my life, I just want to be successful.
37:53 I just want to be a successful actress, a wife and a mother.
37:57 He seems so perfect for me.
38:01 There's no such thing as perfect, Gio.
38:05 All Aldwin is, is a perfect example of a real jerk.
38:09 He's so wrong for you.
38:11 Maybe I'm just scared that my family will get mad at me.
38:21 You know other people, right?
38:23 I'm sure they will say that I should have at least tried to work things out or try to fight.
38:31 But you did all that.
38:34 You absolutely did everything to save your marriage.
38:38 Still, it's not enough.
38:40 It will never be enough.
38:42 Having a perfect life is impossible.
38:47 But having a better life without Aldwin,
38:50 that's absolutely possible.

40:52 You betrayed me!
41:13 You said I'm the only girlfriend you had, that you never slept with other people,
41:17 but you've been lying to me!
41:19 I can't believe that you deceived me and I actually bought your crap!
41:22 Listen, listen to me, listen!
41:24 What is there to explain?
41:26 You told me you're two years older than me, but you're actually 13 years older than me.
41:31 How can you do that to me?
41:33 I did that for us.
41:35 For us, to be with you.
41:37 Don't give me that crap.
41:39 Gio, please, please forgive me.
41:42 Don't walk out on me.
41:43 I want a divorce.
41:45 No!
41:47 I hate you!
41:48 You deceived me!
41:50 I trusted you.
41:52 I gave everything to you.
41:54 I loved you with everything I had.
41:56 But you fooled me.
41:59 You fooled me.
42:01 I don't think I can ever trust you again.
42:05 No! No! No!
42:06 Adrian, stop! Don't do that!
42:08 Stop.
42:11 Don't leave us.
42:15 Don't leave me.
42:16 Are you there? Hey Gio!
42:30 Yes, Adwin.
42:33 There's no shampoo here.
42:36 Can you please get me some shampoo?
42:38 It's in the lower cabinet.
42:41 It's in the lower cabinet.

43:29 Please don't follow me.
43:31 Would appreciate it if you don't call me or look for me.
43:35 I'll be sending you the divorce papers.
43:38 I'm sorry that I have to leave you.
43:41 But all I know is, I'll be more sorry if I don't.
43:45 Take care of yourself.

45:43 - Tio, I told you I will do whatever it takes.
45:48 Anything, you name it.
45:50 I'll see a doctor, I'll see a marriage counselor,
45:53 whatever it is.
45:55 I just need you back in my life.
45:57 I miss you and Sam.
45:59 I miss my family.

46:39 Is this audition for "Without a Trace"?
46:41 Do you know anything about that?
46:43 - No, sorry.
46:44 Excuse me. - Okay, guys.
46:47 (soft music)
46:49 - Hello?
46:55 - Hello?
46:56 - They called off the auditions, I can't believe it.
47:00 - What auditions?
47:02 - The auditions for "Without a Trace", hello?
47:05 - What the hell are you doing there?
47:07 You're supposed to audition for ER.
47:10 - What?
47:10 (soft music)
47:14 (audience applauding)
47:19 - Giovanni Pico?

48:04 - What?
48:05 - You got a part in ER.
48:07 - Really?
48:08 You're kidding me.
48:10 - I'm not.
48:11 You're one lucky girl.
48:15 - Huh?
48:16 Oh my God.
48:17 Oh my God, okay.
48:19 Call you back, bye.
48:20 (speaking in foreign language)
48:27 - Really?
48:28 (speaking in foreign language)
48:32 - What?
48:35 I'm so happy.

51:30 - Ojumane, welcome home.
51:35 (speaking in foreign language)
51:39 And so, how was your trip?
51:42 How did that feel?
51:43 - Oh gosh, my trip to the Philippines was amazing
51:47 and so like thought provoking
51:49 and enlightening at the same time.
51:50 (speaking in foreign language)
51:55 That I would be received like that.
51:58 (speaking in foreign language)
52:01 I know that maybe some articles came out
52:03 that I was on ER, but oh my gosh,
52:05 I was so surprised when I got to the airport.
52:08 (speaking in foreign language)
52:12 I was very, very surprised.
52:16 (speaking in foreign language)
52:20 (speaking in foreign language)
52:22 They have little, but they're so, they still have joy.
52:26 Like so, like (speaking in foreign language)
52:29 And I think that we take that for granted here in the States.
52:32 You know, especially the street children.
52:34 (speaking in foreign language)
52:35 Where it really inspired me
52:37 to like really do something about it.
52:39 (speaking in foreign language)
52:43 And just realizing that (speaking in foreign language)
52:48 for the people.
52:50 (speaking in foreign language)
52:52 And we said, you know, even if it's just starts out little,
52:55 we wanna start a foundation and I wanna call it My K.
52:59 And a couple of the projects that we have going now,
53:02 we're asking in families (speaking in foreign language)
53:05 that they wanna help out,
53:06 that they can make financial arrangements
53:08 to send children to school.
53:10 We have a house in Tondo that we wanna turn
53:12 into a safe house for domestic violence victims.
53:16 (speaking in foreign language)
53:19 I haven't been hit.
53:23 (speaking in foreign language)
53:24 What it's like to be scared every day.
53:26 Scared of what?
53:27 (speaking in foreign language)
53:28 Physical abuse, then (speaking in foreign language)
53:29 (speaking in foreign language)
53:30 It wasn't abuse because he didn't hit me.
53:33 But he would throw things at me.
53:35 (speaking in foreign language)
53:39 People started telling me, you know,
53:44 it wasn't right that was happening to you.
53:46 That's why it is important to me
53:47 'cause it's a lot of it, I think,
53:50 especially in Filipino families,
53:52 (speaking in foreign language)
53:53 you know, you wanna save face.
53:54 It's not talked about.
53:55 (speaking in foreign language)
53:58 You wanna keep the family.
53:59 (speaking in foreign language)
54:04 And it's not right.
54:05 It's not right to live a life of fear.
54:07 It's not right to be like that.
54:08 It's not right for women to have to live like that,
54:11 to have to live in families where they think
54:14 that this is the life that they need to live
54:16 just to keep their family together
54:18 because (speaking in foreign language)
54:20 maybe the lives of their children's
54:23 will be better if they do leave.
54:24 And the third project that we're doing
54:26 is kind of like a Habitat for Humanity project.
54:28 - And Marilyn?
54:29 - We're gonna do it in communities
54:31 so that they can have a livelihood based around it.
54:33 (speaking in foreign language)
54:35 You had some good news.
54:36 (speaking in foreign language)
54:37 Counting the Days just got accepted
54:38 to the New York International Independent Film Festival.
54:42 (speaking in foreign language)
54:44 - At this point in your career,
54:46 (speaking in foreign language)
54:50 - Angelina Jolie because she is a UNICEF ambassador
54:55 and she gives back so much.
54:57 (speaking in foreign language)
55:01 I have so much to learn as a mom
55:04 and I always feel that I'm not enough as a mom.
55:08 - Because?
55:09 - Because I don't know.
55:11 I guess it's I always wanna be better than I am.
55:15 But what do I hope for my kid?
55:18 I hope that he's happy.
55:21 I hope that he grows up without being scared.
55:24 I hope that he does what he really truly wants to do
55:32 and be who he truly wants to be.
55:35 And that nobody holds him back from doing that.
55:38 I hope that he doesn't have to worry
55:40 about things like,
55:43 every time I think of my kid,
55:49 I start thinking about Imola Street children, you know?
55:51 Because I can't imagine him being in that type of situation
55:57 and I hope that that never happens to him.
55:59 I hope that I can provide a good enough life for him
56:01 so that he doesn't have to worry about things like that.
56:06 I hope that he can live in a world without judgment.
56:11 I hope that he can speak his mind
56:14 without having fear of being reprimanded
56:19 or having loss of love.
56:21 - How did you know that?
56:34 I know that you have overcome that.
56:36 (speaking in foreign language)
56:40 - I am so thankful.
56:52 There was some fans that even bought me
56:55 (speaking in foreign language)
56:56 to bring to my son.
56:56 I am so touched, so so touched by you guys.
56:59 (speaking in foreign language)
57:04 For my son.
57:06 - Thank you very much. - Thank you.
57:07 - Thank you very much. - Thank you.
57:08 - And you're most welcome to come back to our country.
57:11 And good luck.
57:12 - Thank you.
57:13 (speaking in foreign language)
57:16 (speaking in foreign language)
57:20, I hope that he can be recognized for his talents.
