Still reeling from the painful, unforeseen deaths of their three beloved friends Tanos (Mark Anthony “Big Mak” Andaya), Dolfo (Ryan Martin), and Bulldog (Mammoth Estroso), Tanggol (Coco Martin) continued to interrogate Enteng (Jojit Lorenzo) about what happened during their supposed transaction with Aling Nena.
Tanggol also went on to blame himself for not accompanying them and express his rage against Rigor (John Estrada), with Ramon (Christopher de Leon) consoling him that it wasn’t his fault and that their friends probably chose to do that in order to protect him. Thus, he better not waste their sacrifices and keep going on with their fight.
But they were interrupted by a call coming from the phone of Aling Myrna (Myrna Castillo), which Enteng initially refused to answer out of fear that Tanggol and Ramon would discover his secret collusion with Rigor, who mercilessly held his mother hostage. Prodded by Ramon, Enteng was compelled to answer it and pretended to be talking to his mom, when it was actually Rigor who was on the other end of the line.
He immediately hung up the call upon hearing Rigor’s spine-chilling threat and left them to go home. Little did Enteng know that Tanggol followed him and caught him speaking with Rigor as he was about to leave their house. Upon his return to their hideout, Enteng had a little altercation with Ramon as the latter conveyed that the former’s suspicious behavior over the previous days had made him skeptical.
As Tanggol arrived and disclosed that he already knew about his conspiracy with Rigor, Enteng finally confessed that he only did that to spare his cherished mother from death. Upon learning the situation, Tanggol urged Enteng to shoot him if that was the only way for him to save Aling Myrna—which the latter shockingly did. Seeing that his son was shot on his left shoulder, Ramon instinctively pulled the trigger on Enteng as well, who was fatally hit on his chest. Enteng managed to shoot Ramon in his abdomen and aimed his gun again at Tanggol, but Tanggol was quick enough to gun him down.
Tanggol approached his dying friend and apologized for what he just had done. Before completely losing his breath, Enteng reminded him that it was never his intention to hurt them, especially him, and that he loved him so much. Tanggol wailed as he cradled Enteng’s body, with some of the memorable moments they had shared together came rushing back to him.
