00:00You're the winner, the story is not yet over

00:06We're not always defeated, we're not always defeated

00:13Atty. Liliya is very special to me

00:16because we're friends

00:18and you, I'm sure you like Atty. Ira

00:24Are you sure you're going to let her in?

00:26I made this decision last night, I'm asking for your signature

00:31Atty. Avalos, we've met before

00:33Why don't we get this thing started?

00:35Please have a seat and I want to hear from you

00:38and why you believe you're fit to be a power

00:46I was given the opportunity to handle a variety of cases

00:50including civil litigation and family law

00:53What stood out for me in my years of being a lawyer

00:57was when I represented a client with a complex custody case

01:01I had limited resources and my client is understandably frustrated

01:07Did you win the case?

01:09I did, fortunately

01:11Well, you've been in a private practice

01:14Why the sudden interest in becoming a power lawyer?

01:17Believe it or not, Atty. I've always been passionate about public service

01:21I want to make a difference where it matters most

01:25How many times have I heard stories like that?

01:28I do not want to invalidate your experience

01:32but do you feel that just being in a private practice

01:36would qualify you for public service?

01:41I'll admit it, Atty.

01:43When I was able to finish my abogacia and top the bar

01:47it was all about my name and my pride

01:51But when I was detained

01:53and I was able to see the real face of Katarungan

01:58my profession had a deeper meaning for me

02:03Do you mean to tell me that just because you suffered in jail

02:07you can now relate to all your clients?

02:10My experience of being wrongfully accused taught me firsthand

02:14that our justice system can sometimes fail people

02:18I want to be an advocate for policy changes

02:21that can improve the justice system for those who are marginalized

02:26Ambitious. Very ambitious

02:29A good name won't make you a good power lawyer

02:33A few number of wins in the court won't go that far

02:38Because this is not just a profession

02:41Power lawyer is a calling

02:45Now, if you're just here to dramatize your situation

02:49and make yourself feel like a victim

02:52it will just burn out the fire in your heart

02:57just like the other power lawyers I know

03:03Thank you for being here

03:06We'll get over your application

03:09and we'll be back with you

03:12Thank you for authoring Avalos

03:14I look forward to hearing from you

03:42Thank you

03:47You're so unfair

03:49You're just picking on me because you like me

03:55You like me too

03:57I didn't say that

04:01I think you're sweeter here

04:03I'm not sure

04:04I'm not sure

04:05I'm not sure

04:06I'm not sure

04:07I'm not sure

04:09I think you're sweeter here

04:27You!

04:34You killed my son

04:37Stop!

04:54It was your son who killed my mother

05:06You stabbed my son, that's why he was forced to hide

05:09Ino is innocent

05:11But you killed him!

05:13Hey, you have no right to speak about a third era that way

05:17If you have any grievances, you do it the right way

05:20You go to court, you file a case

05:24I'm sure he won't get through this

05:27Because he's fond of putting people in a circle

05:31Okay, Lorena

05:33I dare you prove your words to court

05:36Shut up!

05:38My son was an easy target for the killer because he was all alone

05:45You killed my son and his blood is on you!

05:49Stop!

05:50Leave me alone!

05:57Bernie Matias

05:59Are you okay?

06:01You seem to be thinking too much

06:03I'm sorry

06:06What are you thinking about?

06:09I'm just thinking about my interview with Atty. Avalos

06:15He seems to be more strict with his mother and Atty. Constantine

06:20Really?

06:22Maybe you're just testing him

06:25I'm sure you'll get the job

06:28You're good at it

06:30It's not just good

06:31He's good

06:33He said that being a PAW lawyer is a calling

06:38Isn't that what you're feeling?

06:42That's good

06:44You know what?

06:46It's their loss if they let an Atty. Matias go

06:52That's how it should be

06:55You look better when you smile

06:58Right?

07:01Let's talk about something else

07:04My birthday is coming

07:07I don't want to hear a gift

07:10I don't plan to throw a party

07:13I just want an intimate dinner with my family

07:18But I want to invite you

07:23I thought it's an intimate dinner with your family

07:26Why are you inviting me?

07:28I don't know

07:31You know that you're my best friend

07:37I'm not asking for a gift but your presence is enough

07:43Okay, count me in

07:46Thank you

07:48But if you really want to give me a gift

07:51Give me your guesting on my podcast

07:58Okay?

08:00Okay

08:02Yes

08:07Thank you

08:10I really like this bokis but it's good

08:13It's good

08:14It's my favorite

08:16It's tender

08:18It's good

08:20Let's eat

08:22Why? Is there a problem?

08:24Is it about your application to PAO?

08:28I don't understand

08:30I'm sure that you're always accepted

08:33That's why Tina is impressed with you

08:35You're good

08:36It's true

08:41I don't expect to be accepted there

08:44I don't expect to be accepted there

08:47That's why I'll apply to another law firm tomorrow

08:52Don't say that

08:54You're good, Lilet

08:56Just wait, I'm sure they'll call you

08:58But now, eat first

09:01Bestie, let's be strong

09:04So when you're accepted to PAO

09:07We'll have the energy to shout and jump

09:11For fun

09:12For fun

09:14I love you, babe

09:16That's right, eat first

09:19Because my bokis is delicious

09:23I haven't made it for a long time

09:27Let's eat

09:31I'll eat the bokis

09:33The carrot

09:34It's okay

09:36The bokis is good

09:37Thank you

09:42Why, my child?

09:45I'm a PAO lawyer

09:47I'm accepted

09:48I have a schedule for orientation and oath-taking

09:51I'm accepted!

09:55I told you

10:00I told you

10:01As long as we're strong

10:02We won't give up!

10:06Thank you all

10:10Eat first

10:13Good morning, Atty. Avalos and Ms. Miles

10:15Good morning, you're late, Lilet

10:18Yes, I'm on time with our schedule

10:23You know, Lilet, being on time is considered late for me

10:26Because you're still in a hurry, right?

10:29For us to be more effective here

10:31You must at least be 30 minutes to be truly on time

10:34Because you must anticipate emergencies

10:37And you must always have a buffer for everything, okay?

10:40So, let's go

10:47Good morning, Ella

10:48Good morning, Tony

10:50How are you?

10:51I'm happy to see you all

10:54You'll be happier if you know who I'm with right now

11:02Tony, Lilet!

11:06Why are you two together?

11:10We already have a job, Paolo. That's why I'm here

11:15Really?

11:16And the two of us will help you with your case

11:19Tony, thank you so much

11:30There's a witness who said

11:33I'm really mad at Sir Danny

11:36Because he didn't allow me to borrow money

11:39And Sir Danny, he's still mad at me

11:43He said I was on OT for a whole night

11:45And I didn't tell him because I have plans to burn down his factory

11:50But you have a janitor in your factory, right?

11:54Yes, I went to the factory and I saw myself alone

12:00I was collecting fabric scraps

12:03Then, I suddenly hid the lighter that I was holding

12:09When I saw him

12:15Hey, Ella! You're not allowed to use the toilet here

12:21Why do you have a lighter? Are you playing with fire?

12:24Yes, but I'm not playing with fire inside the factory

12:28I know that's not allowed

12:30It just so happened that when the janitor came in, the lighter fell into my pocket

12:34That's why I picked it up right away

12:36But, Ella, you told me the other day that a witness saw you smoking inside the factory

12:44Tony, that's not a cigarette, that's a wafer stick

12:54Is there a CCTV in the factory?

12:57All the CCTVs are broken

12:59How convenient

13:00Tony, I didn't mean it like that

13:03I was really mad at Sir Danny because he didn't lend me money

13:08I still have to pay him back what I owe him

13:11But what I said behind his back, my anger at him

13:15Sir, it's just your feelings

13:20Do you think he's mad at you?

13:23Why is he pointing this case at you?

13:26Is he mad at you?

13:27I think so

13:29Because I joined a group in the factory

13:32A group that is looking for change

13:36against Sir Danny's behavior

13:40What change are you talking about, Tela?

13:44Because Sir Danny hit me before

13:47And when I made a mistake in cutting the cloth for his shoes

13:51But I'm not the only one, there's a lot of us

14:07Hey, where's your machine?

14:11Come here

14:13Come here

14:15Come here

14:17Come here

14:18Where's your machine?

14:20Come here

14:23What happened?

14:25What happened there?

14:27Where?

14:28Where are you? I haven't seen you for a while

14:30You're so lazy, you're just sleeping

14:32Sir, I've been working for a while

14:36I'm sleepy

14:38I'm not talking to you

14:41I'm drunk, Sir, that's why I'm sleepy

14:44Go back to your work

14:45Go back to your work

14:46You, Osang, you're just sleeping

14:48I'll deduct that from your salary

14:50Come here, go back to work

14:52Sir, that's mine

14:54It's dangerous

14:55It's okay, it's just getting hot

14:57Come here

14:58Sit there, go back to work

15:00Sit there

15:02Hurry up, go back to work

15:09Finish that

15:15Why are you making me tired?

15:18So, what your father is saying about you is true?

15:22He's the one who wants to be a lawyer, that's why you were taught in this case

15:26That's why it's important for us to talk to your colleagues

15:30and get their testimonies

15:33Atul, he already did that with my former lawyers

15:36but I don't want to talk

15:40It's all because I'm afraid of Sir Danny

15:43We'll still try

15:45There are ways to protect them

15:48We won't let you down

15:52Thank you, Atul, for everything

15:55I really want to finish this case

15:59I want to be free

16:01I want to go home to my son

16:05That will happen, Ate Ella

16:08We'll help you, Ella

16:28Bestie, are those your shoes?

16:31Yes, Bestie

16:32Sorry, I didn't wait for you

16:34I was just looking at this

16:36I didn't know you have shoes from Yapac Company

16:40Yes, I used to, Bestie

16:42It's nice, right?

16:43Do you want me to buy you one?

16:45No, Bestie

16:48I was just looking at this for the case

16:52For the case?

16:56My client is now

16:58He used to be an employee of Yapac Company

17:01They say their boss is abusive

17:05Really, Bestie?

17:08But, you know

17:10Yapac Company has a good reputation

17:13They are known for being able to read and be human

17:18They are also known for the materials they use

17:24Pina fiber

17:25But they say it's cheap

17:27I was wrong to support them

17:31I'll buy this from them for the last time

17:33I promise

17:36It's sad to think that

17:39Until now, there are companies like them

17:44Really, Bestie

17:47You know, I don't know how I can help with Ate Ella's case

17:52I don't know how I can help her

17:54I don't know how I can help her

17:58Let's see

18:21Here you go

18:24She was accused of murder, wasn't she?

18:26Sadly, she is

18:29She's a friend, right?

18:31Lawyers are known for their number one gossip

18:35Let's give attorney Lelette a break

18:38She was accused

18:40Meaning, she wasn't convicted

18:42We know better

18:44That's why I hope we'll be kinder to her

18:48Okay

18:55Attorney Lelette

18:57Are you okay?

18:59Don't pay attention to them

19:01They are okay

19:02But sometimes, they are still gossipy

19:05I think I'm close to what they are

19:09The only difference is

19:11Before

19:14My appearance and my being a little person

19:16They made fun of me

19:19Now

19:20The wrong accusation that I proved in court

19:24That I have no basis

19:26That I'm innocent

19:29I know

19:31I can take it

19:32That they look down on me

19:35But it hurts to feel

19:38That if you're a cheesemonger, there's no truth

19:42You know, Lelette

19:44What's important

19:46We believe in you

19:47Your friends

19:49Your family

19:51We're here for you

20:01Mr. Yuson's reputation is untarnished

20:04He has so many outreach programs

20:06And he has a lot of shoes to give

20:09Yakup & Company is an award

20:11And he has a lot of online followers

20:13Actually, I have a lot of friends

20:15Who really like his shoes

20:18Atty. Matias

20:20Do you spend all day on your cell phone?

20:23I wonder if you're serious in taking this case

20:26Are you going to regret being a PAW lawyer?

20:28I noticed something in the product of Yapac Company

20:32And what is that?

20:34Look at this

20:36I found out that my cousin has shoes from Yapac Company

20:40My cousin is from Yapac Company

20:43They say that they use pinya fabric

20:46But I discovered something else

20:50This is the pinya fabric

20:53And this is the ornament used in Yapac Company

20:59It's a synthetic organza used in the shoes of Yapac Company

21:03Not pinya

21:05So it's not obvious

21:06Because they color the ornament to make it look like pinya fabric

21:11What is your point?

21:13Mr. Yuson is image conscious

21:17He will do everything to protect his image

21:20Even if he's still a meke

21:23I thought it may seem strange

21:24Because when I checked the page of Yapac Company last night

21:27I read a negative comment

21:29And it said that their shoes will soon be damaged

21:32But after a while, the comment was deleted

21:36See?

21:37It all adds up

21:38All he cares about is his image

21:40Even if he's still a meke

21:43It's all too trivial

21:44We can't send Danny to jail just because of a simple shoe

21:54As time went by

21:57After I confessed to being a parasite

22:01I lost my credibility

22:04I was also separated from other lawyers

22:08Because they thought I was sick

22:15See?

22:17I was also jailed

22:20I was also accused

22:23But

22:24I fought

22:27What's important is

22:30What's the truth

22:33And what's in your heart

22:39Thank you, Tina

22:43It's not just what I experienced today

22:49Even our boss

22:53Whatever I do

22:56I always make mistakes

23:00I still lack in what I do

23:03I'm not good enough for him

23:05Do you still have anything to give up?

23:08You're brave

23:11You're strong

23:13You never back down

23:17You've been through a lot

23:19You've been through more trials

23:22You've been through all of it

23:24And you did it

23:26And now

23:27It's all in your hands

23:30You can do it, Tina

23:33You can do it

23:39I'll see you on my birthday

23:41If not

23:43Boom

23:44You're done

23:47Ali, what?

23:49Nothing

23:50It's just a secret

23:53Just like that

23:55There are people who care about you

23:59They're the ones who can see

24:01That you're a good person

24:04Son

24:05You're their strength

24:08Don't let them look down on you

24:10Because of the fake news

24:12That people are looking at you

24:14As a bad person

24:16Okay?

24:20Now, prove to them

24:23That you won't give up

24:25That you're a good person

24:27That they won't let you down

24:32That's all, son

24:34You can do it

24:36That's all

24:38You can do it

24:40And we're always here

24:42To adjust

24:43And secure

24:45For you

24:53Let's work hard

24:55You can do it, son

25:01You can do it

25:05How did this happen?

25:07I was reminded

25:09That it's not that easy for most people

25:13To accept people like me

25:16You look radiant

25:19Is someone making your heart happy these days?

25:23What?

25:24This is a sworn statement

25:26I'm sure of how I feel about you

25:29Ele, you're important to me

25:31More than friends

25:33Ele, I love you
