00:00What did you say to the doctor?

00:02They didn't say anything.

00:04The doctor didn't say anything.

00:06They got a lot of blood.

00:08And then I told the doctor

00:10because there was no

00:12next of kin.

00:14But the mother

00:16told me earlier

00:18that

00:20her son shouldn't be neglected.

00:22And then the mother

00:24also said

00:26that

00:28she should bring

00:30her son to the hospital

00:32instead of

00:34neglecting him.

00:36So we asked for help.

00:38No one

00:40helped us

00:42there.

00:48We didn't know what to do

00:50because we didn't

00:52have

00:54a background in

00:56healthcare.

00:58But at that point,

01:00I didn't know

01:04what to do.

01:12We told

01:14her to

01:16wash his face

01:18and then

01:20he collapsed.

01:26Well,

01:28before he

01:30woke up,

01:32it was good that Nicole

01:34took care of him.

01:36She took the ball pen

01:38and rubbed

01:40his hand.

01:42She said,

01:44I don't want this anymore.

01:46It was good

01:48that Nicole

01:52took the

01:54ball pen.

01:58He collapsed.

02:00I'm sorry.

02:02He collapsed.

02:04I just remember

02:06the ball pen.

02:08I didn't look at it

02:10because I was on my phone.

02:12I was asking

02:14and thinking

02:16who should I call

02:18to help

02:20him.

02:22They were angry

02:24at me.

02:26They weren't angry

02:28at

02:30Jose Lopez.

02:32I was thinking

02:34who

02:36could help

02:38him.

02:40Then,

02:48he collapsed.

02:50I didn't know

02:52what happened.

02:54I called him

02:56and he didn't answer.

03:02A doctor came

03:04and

03:06then,

03:08his mom

03:10talked to the doctor.

03:12They talked.

03:14His mom gave instructions.

03:16He's the next of kin.

03:18His mom said that

03:20since he's not physically in Manila,

03:22can I just

03:24take care of her daughter?

03:26Then,

03:32what did the police say?

03:34Did the PNP respond?

03:38Nothing.

03:40We didn't plan to file cases.

03:42No one helped

03:44us.

03:46We didn't know if it was a heart attack.

03:50We didn't know

03:52what was happening to him.

03:56We asked for help.

03:58We asked anyone.

04:00Your doctor, our doctor,

04:02anyone.

04:04Give it to us.

04:10That's what

04:12the next of kin said.

04:14That's what the lawyer said.

04:16The next of kin will follow.

04:22I don't know.

04:24That's what I thought.

04:26I thought he might die.

04:28It was my fault.

04:30My colleague died

04:32in the office of the Vice President

04:34because I was being chased.

04:36I didn't think

04:38about the correction.

04:44Can you tell us

04:46who's in charge?

04:48Are you policemen or ambulances?

04:50Of course.

04:52We're the House of Representatives.

04:54Martin Romaldes is the only one.

04:56What did Joel Chua say?

05:00What did Congressman Joel Chua say

05:02to Congressman Pulong Duterte?

05:04I'm just a soldier.

05:06What did Congressman

05:08Pulong Duterte say to him?

05:10I'm just a soldier too.

05:12But if a soldier abuses,

05:14another soldier will fight back.

05:16And

05:18you can ask

05:20Congressman Pulong Duterte.

05:24That's a direct quote

05:26to what he said

05:28to Congressman

05:30Chua.

05:32And you know what?

05:34What the doctor said

05:36was

05:38to settle the charges.

05:40Whatever the charges.

05:42Martin Romaldes,

05:44Martin Romaldes,

05:46you will pay for all of this.

05:48You will pay for all of this.

05:52Whatever

05:54Dulayka Lopez's mother wants,

05:56you will pay for all of it.

06:00This is your fault.

06:02Because if you want to be president,

06:04you're chasing me.

06:08Stop your ambition.

06:10No one will vote for you.

06:12Hola.
