Wedding Dress (2022) Movie Script

Joanne!
- Joanne!
- Hey. What is it?
Joanne! It's Susan!
What happened to Susan?
Is she okay?
She's not okay!
She's an idiot!
She left behind the
veil and bouquet!
You have to go, hurry!
What the... How did this happen?
I told you she can't
be trusted on her own!
Go on, hurry!
I have to fetch...
Go on, please, hurry!
Jesus Christ!
Come here!
It's raining!
I'm telling you, from now on
you're not leaving the
house without an umbrella!
Yes, ma'am.
Smart-ass.
It won't start?
You really need
to get a new one.
Nah, it's just
throwing a tantrum.
See?
Sis, where's my veil?
It's on its way,
ma'am, just relax.
Just relax, babe.
- The wedding's started!
- You might trip!
Don't get tense,
it's on its way.
Where are you?
Hurry up with my veil!
Yes, ma'am, just relax.
Wait for me here,
alright, sweetie?
- Yes, Mom.
- I'll be quick, stay there.
Sorry, sorry, it's here!
It was pouring at Legarda.
Good thing it's sunny here!
Alright, alright,
give it to me...
Mom, I can take it from here.
I'll take it from here.
Are you sure? Alright.
Take care, okay?
Mom, someone might see us!
And so?
You're my baby!
I'm going to go ahead now.
Okay, okay.
Mom...
Why did you even
trip a while ago?
Well, it's because...
Gosh, it's because
you're so clumsy!
Ah, whatever!
Just drop it!
Alright, let's go!
Wait a minute! Just wait.
Don't reject me so quickly.
At least get to know me.
I'm sure you'll like me.
Durian... you know how
you don't like Durian at first?
It has an awkward taste,
but slowly...
Hello?
Hello.
What are you doing here, huh,
kid?
Are you crying, sir?
No!
I can see it... your eyes are red!
No, I'm getting sore
eyes! See, here! Here!
Do you want me to infect you?
Why are you laughing?
What's so funny?
Because you're a karate teacher,
but you're a crybaby!
I told you, I'm not crying!
Smart-ass.
Are you enrolled
in my karate class?
Karate class?
Isn't that why
you're here? Look.
Wow, there's a class here?
Wow!
Why aren't there any people?
They're still on their way.
Why?
I want to learn karate!
Hey, this isn't free, alright?
Maybe if the others see that
you have students as well,
they might enroll, too!
Wow, you're a sharp
one, aren't you?
Don't think you're
so lucky, though!
I guess this is why you
got rejected by that woman!
Because...
Because? What?
You can't give people a chance.
That's why
she didn't give
you a chance either.
Ouch!
Smile, sweetie, smile!
Mom, just use this one instead!
Alright.
Just place it there.
Thank you, mister.
Wow
Do you want
anything else, sweetie?
Just order what you want.
No thanks, this is
more than enough.
My tummy's going
to burst with all this.
Really?
Mom, - Yes?
Do you have a lot of money?
Ah, we have a little extra.
I just got paid and Mary
Jane gave me a bonus, too.
I'm so full.
Eat some more!
I received 3000 pesos, ma'am.
The change is yours, okay?
Thank you, ma'am.
How much was the change?
Ah, 300 pesos.
Wow!
That's how it should be, sweetie!
You should share your blessings.
Mom Yes?
Maybe you want to share
some blessings with me?
What?
Let's buy some new video games!
Come on, then!
Let's buy your new video game!
Hurry!
Come on, hurry up!
Get it, mom!
Let's move there, mommy!
What happened?
I told you, mom,
that TV isn't good anymore.
Sir, here. Put it over here.
Just place it here, please.
Wow!
Is that new?
Yeah!
Now I'm sure that's
going to be crystal clear!
Mom,
why don't you include these
panties into the washing machine?
First of all,
the garter will get loose.
Secondly, you need to learn
how to wash your own underwear.
Why?
Well,
when you get your
monthly period,
or when you have a husband,
who's going to wash
your underwear?
Mom, I told you I don't
want to get married.
I don't want to get my
period, either! Yucky!
Next time, you have to
do your own hair, alright?
I don't want to.
My arms get sore.
Ah, is that so?
You're just gonna braid
it, it won't take that long!
This girl!
You have to learn these things.
Mom
it's nothing.
You should come here more often.
Your house is nearby
but I barely get to see you.
Sorry, brother.
It's been so busy at the shop.
Sometimes I don't even
get to pick up Carla on time.
I don't want to bother anyone.
Here. I still have
some fried chicken.
I warmed it up, too.
Eat up.
You should eat your vegetables.
Joey!
Carla, he's right.
You should eat
what's on the table.
But I wasn't asking
for fried chicken.
But you were frowning!
Joey, stop it.
You should eat.
Excuse me, for a bit.
Carla, come here.
You're embarrassing me in front
of your Uncle Jun and Aunt Heidi.
Can you please behave?
I was just looking at
the chicken because
I know Auntie makes
really good fried chicken.
I wish you would
cook at home, too.
This is our latest design!
How much is this one?
120,000 pesos.
So expensive!
Ma'am!
This gown's cathedral
train alone is already 10 feet!
And the material is silk!
Plus, just look at the
details of the beadwork!
But we also have
lower-priced ones.
Here, if you look at this rack
This rack has budget gowns.
They're cheaper.
Being a bride is a
once-in-a-lifetime experience.
So if I were you, I
would get this one!
Right?
Ma'am, what's
your prettiest gown?
Definitely the custom made ones!
Here's the other sample designs!
It's so pretty!
Babe, do you see
anything you like?
I want this one.
Sorry,
someone already owns this.
But I can make a design for you!
Huh?
But this is the one!
This is the one I really like!
Can't you give it to me?
- No.
- Yes!
Excuse us.
What?
Give her the design!
It's sure income for us.
I really can't. It's mine!
Do you even have a boyfriend?
No.
Okay. Are you getting married?
No.
Then give it!
I really can't give
it, Mary Jane!
Can't I go on leave for a while?
What?
Go and pick the
part that you want.
It's good, right?
Yes, mom.
But Auntie Heidi's
is much better.
Well, home cooking
has a different taste to it.
Mom, why don't you like cooking?
Well, I'm usually very tired
when I come home from work.
And when I get home,
I don't get to cook.
You know, I'm a better
cook than your auntie Heidi.
Do you want a taste
while I'm on leave?
Why are you on leave?
Nothing,
I just haven't used
my off days as much.
Besides, while
it's your sembreak,
maybe we can hang out more.
Can we go to the beach?
Of course!
We'll go first thing tomorrow!
Yay!
Mom, you don't need
to cook anymore,
we'll just buy food there!
I'll take care of it!
Okay, just remember...
One of the secrets of a
delicious and tasty fried chicken
is to soak it in a salt and
water solution overnight.
This helps to loosen the
muscle fibers of the chicken,
and makes it juicy and tender!
And don't forget to add spices.
Wow!
Are you cooking, mom?
Of course!
Mom's fried chicken!
You do know how to cook!
Of course!
Fried chicken is easy,
you just need the secret
to make sure that the
chicken is tender and tasty!
You need salt
and water solution overnight.
This way
it will help loosen the
muscle fiber of the chicken.
Like this.
It will make the
chicken juicy and tender.
Then you add some spices!
You're amazing, mom!
I'm so excited to eat tomorrow!
You're excited?
Then you should go to bed
because we leave early tomorrow.
Okay, mom, I'm just
going to go feed the fish.
Okay.
Sweetie, we have an
early day tomorrow.
Yes, mom.
Good night!
Good night!
It's alright, mom.
Let's just have a picnic in bed.
What can you see over
there in the far south?
The sky there
seems kind of bright.
That means
there's no rain there!
Let's go?
Hey, slow down!
You might finish it before
we get to the beach!
Sorry, mom!
It's really good!
Don't worry.
We'll just buy some
burgers on the way.
Mom,
I forgot to ask permission
from my adviser!
No, it's alright.
I told her your grandma died.
Mom!
My adviser already knows
that both my grandmas are dead!
Why did you lie?
I didn't say they died recently!
You're dead meat, mom!
I'll take care of it!
Let's go.
Why are you looking
at me like that?
Mom...
I wish that, last year,
last, last year
and last, last, last year
we did things like this.
What is it?
Nothing.
Aww
Your dad is trying
to send a message.
That was our theme song.
What do you mean 'theme song'?
That was what was
playing during our first date.
He even bought
me the cassette tape;
With matching flowers
and chocolates, too!
That was when he
was courting me,
up until he proposed.
It's too bad.
I don't remember Papa
He loved you so much.
Mom
Are you still sad about it?
I'm always going to miss him,
but...
that's how I know
how much I love him.
It's alright, mom.
I'm here for you
and I'll never leave you!
Mom!
You're it!
No, you're it!
One, two, three!
Make sure I look pretty!
Of course!
Alright, now take my picture..
One, two
Let's take a picture
of us together.
How are we going to do that?
There's no one
to take our picture.
Here, let me. I'll hold it.
We might not show up there, mom.
Let's do it here
instead on my phone.
One, two
So cute!
When you're done,
we're just going
to rest for a bit
then we'll go back.
I don't want to go home yet.
We might get stuck in traffic.
We don't want to keep your Uncle
Jun and Auntie Heidi waiting.
It's important to always
arrive on time, sweetie.
But you're always
late in picking me up.
Yes, and that's my mistake.
Sorry, I'm only human,
and I have to make a living.
Mom
What?
Thank you.
For what?
For spending time with me.
Is Joanne coming?
It's always so difficult
dealing with her!
She has no sense of time!
Always out of it!
Joanne is a single mother.
She won't listen.
Mother didn't approve
of her husband.
It's not her fault that
her husband died early!
But it's her fault that mother
died of a broken heart!
Don't you dare put that on her!
She's just a little late
and you're blaming
her for everything?
Joanne has a job!
She is both mother
and father to her child.
I hope you can be
considerate to your own sister!
I just feel bad for the
kids, they're hungry.
Joanne's coming,
she's on her way.
Stop making it an issue.
Careful.
Big bro, sorry we
got here pretty late.
Let's pray.
Our Father in heaven,
we thank you for bringing
us siblings together,
as a family,
to celebrate the
birthday of our mother.
Thank you for blessing us
with such a loving mother,
and even if
she's no longer here,
we know that,
every day,
she's guiding all of us here.
- Joanne!
- Joanne?
Mom!
We're getting in touch
with Dr. Ian Villanueva,
her oncologist.
Oncologist?
Wait a minute...
What's the meaning of this?
I'm sorry, I have to ask
permission from your sister first
if I can disclose
her condition to you.
She has gastric cancer.
Oh my god!
Why did you only
tell me this now?
Because I don't want
to add to your worries.
You didn't want this.
I'm always causing problems.
How can I help?
Carla
Don't tell Carla yet.
Can you manage?
Yes.
Just bring Carla home tomorrow,
I think...
I'll feel better by then.
Remember, if you need
anything, just tell me alright?
Just call.
Thank you, big bro.
You can fight this!
Just stay strong.
Karate class, enroll now!
Karate class, enroll now!
Won't even glance at me!
Karate class, enroll now!
Karate... hey!
Your style's all wrong!
You again?
You sure got a
mouth on you, kid!
I just want to help you, sir.
But if you don't
want help, fine.
Alright, alright!
Stop acting cool.
Here you go.
If you don't hand out
everything, we're done.
Can I give a suggestion?
What if
you put candies on the
flyers so they'll take it?
It's like you're courting them.
But you have to
do it after school.
Not in the morning, since
they're running late to class.
Ah, jeez.
This is why you got rejected.
Hey!
Hey! Kid!
I heard that!
Jeez
Alright, fine.
I agree to give you lessons.
But...
you have to tell
your mommy, alright?
Carla.
Why haven't you been
attending ballet class?
You're scared of us, aren't you?
I'm not scared of you.
I just don't want to do ballet.
Okay!
Oh, this is good!
It's my favorite!
Mm, delicious!
Aww, she's packing
up, what a baby!
Wow, what a sore loser!
I can't believe you're
so easy to rile up!
What a baby!
This is your favorite?
Here. It's all yours.
What a sore loser,
she walked out!
Sore loser!
Okay! Okay, Mrs.
Belmonte, I'll see you there
I'll be there soon!
Mary Jane?
What?
Can I go on a long break?
Again?
I wanted to get some rest.
You know you're the only
one I trust around here!
Susan can't be left on her own!
What if you get another
designer assistant?
Why?
Are you leaving me?
No.
Just a minute...
Hello?
Huh?
Sorry about this, I didn't know
that Carla was a troublemaker.
It was Gina who started it.
They used to be best friends!
In my class, one time,
Gina took Carla's water bottle,
and she just drank from
it without permission!
Carla hates that.
Exactly.
So, probably, instinctively,
Carla grabbed her drink
and pushed away Gina.
But Gina fell off balance
and she fell on her face.
So the class laughed at her.
Since then, she has
been picking on Carla.
I already called on
her parents as well.
Who is Carla hanging out with?
Carla's always alone.
Yes, sir?
Did you enroll?
No, sir.
Please leave.
Sorry, sir.
This isn't a playground.
Kid.
What are you doing here?
I'm just helping you.
Jeez.
Stop, I'll do that.
Give it here. Come on.
I'll take it from here.
Go ahead.
Can I ask you something?
What is it this time?
Do you think we've
been found out?
Us?
Well, I'm in your class now,
and...
my mom got called
to the principal's office.
Is that a bad thing?
Depends! What
have you been up to?
Kid.
Whatever you did, you
need to ask for forgiveness.
That's all there is to it.
Come on.
I didn't do anything!
Oh.
Except
I skipped ballet class.
Look at this!
See,
just like when you're
courting someone.
It has to be that sweet!
Thank you.
Alright, go home.
Mom.
What happened to you?
It's nothing, dear.
I guess I ate something
funny a while ago.
Probably wasn't fresh.
Go on and feed the fish, dear.
Mom.
Are you mad at me?
Should I be?
I fought with a classmate.
But it wasn't my fault!
Maybe I'm more
disappointed because,
I thought you were
okay at school.
I am okay!
I don't need friends anyway.
You need friends.
You need family.
And you need relatives.
I have you.
That's enough for me.
I'm not always going to be here.
Where are you going?
See this?
One day this will become faded,
and disappear.
Why do you even like these?
If you use a cellphone,
it can be saved forever!
Your dad gave me this.
So
Where are you going?
Nothing.
I'm just saying,
I'll grow old.
I won't be here forever.
That's not happening soon.
Don't be a smart-ass.
My child,
I'm just worried you don't
know how to get along
with your classmates,
or your cousins.
You can't just depend on me.
I don't even depend
on you that much.
I depend more on auntie Heidi.
I can go home by myself,
do my homework by myself
You're always at the shop,
so I'm used to it.
You're blaming me?
Do you think I like
working all the time?
That I don't want to rest?
I'm tired, too,
but I have to work!
Because if I don't,
we're going to starve!
Sorry it's just
I don't really need anyone else.
Just the two of us.
And...
when you're old,
I'll take care of you.
Hyah!
Hyah!
Hyah!
One more!
One, two, stance.
And arm up!
Good.
Anddown.
Other side. Up!
Good.
And down.
Shoulders down,
chins up, both arms up!
Excuse me.
Hi.
Hello, yes?
Where's Carla?
She's not in my class.
Where is she?
I don't know, she doesn't
attend my ballet classes.
She's in karate class!
Hyah!
Hyah!
Hyah!
Hyah!
One more time! Hyah!
Hyah!
Stance!
Observe your form.
Again. One-two-three.
Hyah!
Hyah!
Hyah!
Hyah!
Hyah!
Hyah!
More energy!
Last one, hyah!
Hyah!
Stronger now, hyah!
You can shout.
Hyah!
Hyah!
Since when was this?
Mom!
Ma'am
Aren't you the older one here?
The teacher?
You should be
disciplining the child!
Why are you encouraging
her to skip her ballet class?
Come on.
Mom!
Come on!
Mom!
I'm so sorry!
I'll attend the ballet class!
If you don't want
to, then don't!
Forcing something is never good!
Okay.
What do you mean okay?!
You said if I don't want
to, then I shouldn't
Why don't you want to?
Because
My bullies are there
Is that a problem?
Why won't you tell your teacher?
They might call
me a teacher's pet
Carla, I want you to
have a lot of friends,
but I also want you to
stand up for yourself!
Especially when you're right!
Yes, mom.
If you didn't want to do
ballet, you should have told me!
I didn't want you to
be disappointed again.
Fine.
I'm not going to force you.
But maybe you can
fix your issue with Gina.
Maybe you can forgive her
for what happened to
you two in the canteen?
It's gross! Her
spit was on there!
What happens then.
If you get married?
What if you have to
kiss your husband?
That's gross.
I don't want to get married.
It's your birthday soon.
Invite them.
Mom,
I don't want a party.
We can just have snacks!
A celebration of you
guys being friends again.
What is it?
Sweetie,
why aren't your
visitors here yet?
Mom.
I'm going to go do
some homework first.
Is there anyone coming?
I don't have any
friends, remember?
Nothing.
Gina?
What?
Nothing.
You're so weird!
Weird!
She calls me but
won't say anything
Jeez.
Wait, wait!
Wait a minute.
Sweetie, come on.
It's your birthday isn't it?
We'll just celebrate
on our own, come on!
Happy birthday to you!
Make a wish!
Come on, let's eat!
Your turn to make a wish, mom!
Me?
Alright.
My wish is
For my daughter to
have a lot more friends,
for her to do a ballet recital
and that we'll be
together forever.
Mom, ballet again?
Come on, let's eat this!
I'm gonna get you!
I won!
Happy?
Yes, mom.
Even without anyone else,
it's fun.
Do you want to see
my present for you?
Yes!
Ta-dah!
Thank you, mom.
You don't seem happy.
I don't know how to ride a bike.
I'll teach you!
Come on, get on!
Go on, you can do it! Go.
I don't want to
anymore, it's hard.
You can do it, dear!
You can do it!
Look in the distance.
And keep your balance.
Keep going, I've got your back!
I will always watch over you.
I've got you, I've got you!
There!
- I did it mom, I found my balance!
- I'll always watch over you!
Mom!
Mom!
You should get
yourself admitted.
Doc, I'm still good, I always
take my medicine on time.
You know that...
painkillers is not the the
treatment for your condition.
It could metastasize quicker,
and it can cause sudden
onset bilateral blindness.
Or it can even compromise
your motor skills.
Doc, I want to spend what little
time I have left with my kid.
Not withering
away in the hospital.
Auntie
What is my mom's illness?
Just pray, dear.
That your mom
will get better soon.
So that means
that she really is sick.
Mom's hiding it from me.
It means it's bad news.
God has mercy.
I hope I had known
about it earlier.
Is my mom going to die soon?
Mom?
I'm going to go ahead.
Wait a minute!
It's okay, I've braided my hair.
I'll take care of it.
You also take a while to
get dressed, I might be late.
Mom.
Don't eat too much food, okay?
Bye.
If Rice A is 80 pesos per kilo,
and Rice B is 45 pesos per kilo,
then, which is cheaper?
Four kilos of Rice A, or,
five kilos of Rice B?
Mom!
Oh!
My daughter's so over dramatic!
What is it?
Nothing.
I was just thinking about
how I would get home.
Good thing your mom figured
out you didn't have an umbrella!
Because you don't listen to the
weather forecast on the news!
Yes ma'am.
Remember next time, alright?
Yes ma'am! Like the Girl
Scouts, I'll always be ready
With an umbrella.
Alright, let's go.
Oh, you!
Dear, do you want me
to tape up your eyelids?
You should go take
a nap on the sofa.
I don't want to,
I just want to watch you work.
Is it pretty?
Yes, it's so pretty!
Was that what you wore
when you got married to papa?
No.
We didn't have a budget then.
But in my head I had a design.
I guess that's why you're
always drawing gowns.
Maybe.
But did you know
what your papa said?
He promised me,
on our 10th wedding anniversary,
I would be able to wear the
wedding gown that I wanted.
But he's gone.
Mom... Hmm?
Why don't you try this gown on?
Huh?
Mom.
Do you have the
choreo memorized?
Of course, you?
Just a bit, but...
I'll get there.
Hey.
I'm not mad.
It's okay that you
betrayed me to your mom.
What do you mean?
You betrayed me.
But I didn't say anything!
That's the problem,
you didn't say anything!
That's why we got into trouble!
Did your girlfriend
betray you too?
You and your questions!
You look excited to
go to school, dear!
Not really! I'm just excited that
you're bringing me to school.
It's a good thing
your car broke down.
You're such a smooth-talker!
Mom
What if I skipped school?
Why?
It feels like a waste
you don't have work today,
we should spend time together!
What are we going
to tell your adviser?
Not feeling well.
Let's not. It's bad to lie,
it might actually happen.
Momdon't use grandma
as an excuse again, okay?
I'll take care of your adviser.
Yehay!
Yay!
Mom
What if I skipped
ballet class too?
Okay.
Didn't I say? If you don't want
it, I'm not going to force you.
But mom, why do you
want me to do ballet?
Because it was my dream,
and I didn't get to do it.
You won't always like things immediately
the first time that you try them.
The important thing is,
you shouldn't be afraid to try.
It's better to fail
than to never try.
I wanted to resign soon.
What?
Is someone trying to poach you?
Are they offering you double?
You shouldn't just think about the money,
you have to consider your workmates, too!
I'm not going to move, I'm
just going to stop working.
I need to focus on my kid and the
other things I have to take care of
before I'm gone.
Gone? Are you going abroad?
I'm sick.
Then go on sick leave!
Get yourself treated!
It's not a problem.
It's untreatable.
It's gotten worse.
You little biatch! Are
you trying to prank me?
If I find out you're lying
to me, I will kill you myself!
Dear? What's all this?
- Are you going to run away from home?
- No mom.
We keep going back and
forth from uncle Jun's house,
I thought maybe we should
just stay there for a while,
so you won't get tired.
Just a little vacation?
Yes!
But you might just
argue with your cousins.
Big bro Joel is the only one
that keeps arguing, not me.
Baby, remember
what I told you, alright?
Learn how to get along.
Hello? Carla?
Hello?
Auntie, where are you?
I'm on my way there, okay?
Make sure your mom is
asleep so she won't notice!
Yes, she's asleep right now.
You should go to bed, too! Okay?
I will. Take care!
Okay, bye bye!
I don't know why you're
fussing over this gown.
I would understand
if you had a groom,
but you don't!
I went along with
this craziness,
because you always went along
with mine, for several years.
I hope it's not true
that you're going away.
All I know is I love you,
biyotch, even if it's not obvious.
Thank you for everything.
Mary Jane.
Yes!
Come on, join us!
What?
She didn't say anything.
Why not?
She's sulking, her mom is sick.
What kind of sickness?
I'm not sure, I just heard
it from mama and papa.
Stop gossiping about us!
Are you never going to
get along with anyone?
You fight with your classmates,
you fight with your
cousins, what do you want?!
- Sorry
- Sorry?
You keep apologizing
but you do it again!
Carla.
Your Uncle Jun and Auntie
Heidi are our closest relatives
who care for you!
Tell me,
who else are you
going to get along with?
Who else can you run to?
You!
What about you, mom?
Why are you always
telling me these things?
Why are you always
pushing me to others?
You're the only one that
loves me and understands me!
So don't leave me, mom!
I just want you!
If only I could, dear.
Mom, fight it! Fight it, please!
I'm trying.
I'm trying so hard.
Are you alright?
Okay sit down.
You're crazy!
You've caused such a scandal!
You're the most radiant
sick person I've ever seen.
Probably because
I got some rest.
How are things at the shop?
Same old thing!
Stressing over Susan!
Christ.
Look at this!
It's almost done!
It's so beautiful!
Of course! Have we
ever made an ugly gown?
Who finished the beadwork?
Me and Susan!
Why, is there something wrong?
Here, look at this...
the design isn't complete.
Here.
Ah.
It's not obvious!
Do you want me to
have it redone?
We're going to rip
out all 187 beads??
I mean, look at the sleeve.
See, it needs to be even,
to show the full design.
I hate you!
You're too detailed!
It's making me miss you more!
Fine!
We'll redo it.
Well?
Is there anything
else I can do for you?
You've done more than enough.
Dear
Can you sing to
me so I can sleep?
Mom, that's your role!
Please?
Alright.
But I'm not going to
scratch your hair okay?
You're a big girl already!
Go to sleep,
my little one,
cuddle close and hold me tight
this lullaby
for you.
Sir, ma'am...
Okay, so I was
explaining to the patient,
that painkillers is not the
treatment for her condition.
It could metastasize quicker,
and it could cause sudden
onset bilateral blindness.
And it will compromise
her motor skills.
I also told her that
as time goes by,
the cancer cells are spreading.
Eventually,
it will affect her
optic nerves...
which will definitely
lead to blindness.
My wish is
For my daughter to
have a lot more friends,
for her to do a ballet recital
and that we'll be
together forever.
You'll have difficulty
catching up to this class.
You missed out
on a lot of things.
We're doing rehearsals
for recital already.
I will do my best!
If you want, you can
go to another class,
that one just started recently.
You can do that.
I don't want to go
to another class,
I want to be able
to join the recital.
Please, ma'am, please!
Fine.
Here's what we'll do.
We'll try it, but
there's no guarantee.
Okay?
If you can't do it,
I'm not going to
include you. Okay?
Thank you, teacher
Lisa! Thank you...
No guarantee!
Okay?
Alright.
Girls, let's go?
Hold the bar, first position!
Hands on the bar
Very good.
Knees straight,
chins up, shoulders to the side
Did you see Carla a while ago?
Always doing the wrong steps!
Why did she even want
to suddenly join ballet!
Let's just let her
do the steps wrong,
don't teach her anything!
During the recital,
our eyes should be expressive.
Okay?
We shouldn't be shy!
You need to always
communicate...
Teach...
Communicate with
the audience, okay?
Very good! Good work today!
Let's go.
Kid.
It's okay if you want
to do ballet now.
I'm not hurt,
we're still friends!
I feel like teacher Lisa
is going to remove me.
I really don't want a recital,
but
But?
Wait... why are you
even doing ballet?
Mom wants it.
But you told me
your mom is okay with
you not doing ballet!
Wasn't that what you said?
It's her wish.
Hey kid.
You're not so bad.
I want to make her happy
Before she has to go.
That's the best
thing in my opinion!
Give me five!
Where is your mom going?
Is she going to be an OFW?
Alright, let's go,
let's get out of here.
Can you bring me to
Central Medical Hospital?
Sure, of course.
Anywhere you want!
Why, who's sick?
My mom.
Thank you, sir.
Are you alright?
Just remember, alright?
Take care of your mom,
and stay strong, kid.
Mom?
Mom!
Baby!
You surprised me!
Oh!
Baby
Mom...
Gina.
Ice cream for you.
This is for you.
It's good.
Did you put something here?
No.
Carla, I don't want to
fight anymore, okay?
We might end up in the
principal's office again.
I don't want to fight
anymore either.
I also wanna apologize
for what I did in the canteen
and when you
tripped in class before
That's fine!
Why would you even
find my saliva gross,
we're supposed to be friends!
I don't find you gross!
I'm not like that anymore!
Really?
See, you're flinching!
No, I'm just
getting a toothache!
I think I have a cavity!
You're sure?
Thank you!
Mom!
Baby!
Every time you come in here,
I feel like I'm going
to get a heart attack,
you surprise me every time!
Mom, I have a surprise for you!
Come in, you guys!
Here, here!
Good afternoon, ma'am!
Mom, this is Gina!
Hi, Gina.
Hello ma'am!
We've made up!
That's good.
You were best
friends before, right?
Mom, this is Catherine, Rose,
Grace and Lindsey.
You have so many friends, dear!
Oh, there's some cake
there, you should have some!
Okay, thank you ma'am!
There's cake, go get some!
Oh, and here is our pet!
They're so cute, right?
- Oh it's so cute!
- Hi!
This is what I feed them.
Teacher... Teacher Lisa.
Yes?
I need your help.
With what?
It's Carla.
I hope you can help her.
Okay, we'll start,
alright? First position:
Feet.
There we go!
Your knees should be straight,
so squeeze your
thighs... that's it.
Brava arms... there!
Elbows to the side,
lengthen your shoulders,
and stretch and eyes out!
And up!
And bourre
Good! Bourre!
Squeeze! Your! Thighs!
Good! Backs up and bourres!
Good, girls! Smiles!
And swing to the left!
Demi pli!
Stretch your legs,
squeeze your thighs, good!
And let's take our
bows, step to the right
And curtsy... very soft hands,
smile and step to
the left! Andcurtsy!
And first position.
- Girls, let's step to the right...
- Wooh! That's my friend!
- Shh!
- Atta girl! Sorry!
This is good for you.
It purifies the air.
Thanks, sis.
Even as kids we
were always fighting.
Jun got so tired of
calming us down.
I don't know, maybe
I was so jealous of how
much prettier you were.
And kinder
And smarter.
I couldn't blame mama and papa
for choosing you as a favorite.
Don't worry about Carla, okay?
I will make it up
to you by doing
everything I
couldn't do for you!
Carla's mom has
a surprise for you!
She had costumes made
for you for the recital!
Wow!
Here!
- Carla, this is yours.
- Wow!
Oh, thank you very much!
Carla's mom designed that,
because she wants your
recital to be extra special!
So girls, do your best, alright!
- Thank you ma'am!
- Thank you ma'am!
Your mom's so nice!
She really is.
I hope she gets better soon!
She's not getting better.
I didn't know, I'm
sorry to hear that.
Baby
Thank you so much,
for doing this for me.
Mom
Do you have any other wishes?
Anything! I'll do
anything for you!
There's no need.
You've granted
every one of them.
Thank you.
Thank you for being my child.
You've made my
life so wonderful.
You too, mom.
Mom? Good morning.
Mom?
Mom?
I guess you got so tired.
Get some sleep, mom.
I'm not going to school.
I'll just watch over you.
Mom?
I've watered your plant.
Mom?
I've fed the fish.
Dear, we're just going to
check up on your mother, alright?
No, sir, she's sleeping!
It's alright, we won't wake her.
The check up won't take long
and we'll leave immediately.
Please let Doc JM though, okay?
I can't, she's
sleeping, let her sleep!
She's tired, okay?
Don't bother her!
Dear, I'll go in alone, okay?
- No, I won't let you!
- We'll just check on your mom...
- Mom!
- Please listen to us, dear!
- It won't take long!
- Mom! Mom!
It's just for a bit, - We
just need to check up on her!
- Mom! Mom!
- They only need to look in on her, dear.
It won't take long.
She's sleeping.
Please let her rest.
They only need to
look in on her, dear.
- It's just for a bit.
- Mom!
- Dear, we'll only look for a bit.
- Please, don't wake mom up!
- It's okay!
- Mom!
It's okay, it's okay!
They're going to wake her up.
- They're waking mom up!
- It's okay, it's okay!
Auntie Mary Jane?
Is it okay if mom wears this?
Of course, if that's
what you want.
That way, when she meets dad,
he'll be glad...
because he delivered
his promise with mom.
Dear
Your mom wanted
you to have these.
Treasure it, alright?
See this...
One day, these will fade.
They'll be gone.
Okay?
Happy weekend, study well!
Good thing your mom figured
out you didn't have an umbrella!
Because you don't listen to the
weather forecast on the news!
I listened this time, mom.
Remember, you said I
should always be ready,
like a Girl Scout?
