“Dalisay and Vendetta, I will not back down. The armed forces isn’t afraid of your group. They will hunt you all down, until you’re all annihilated.”
General Borja receives a phone call from Jerome who informs him about their current situation with the Vendetta. He asks for their exact location so he could send some men to get him and Soriano.
Jerome refuses to do so since it would be tantamount to betraying Cardo who they owe their lives to. He however promises to update him often. Outside, the members of the Vendetta deliberate on their plight as well as the men they had lost in the recent encounter.
“And then there was that fòöl Marco Cabrera,” Ramil grumbles.
“Exactly,” Tadpole chimes in. “Imagine that.” Tadpole recounts all the forces they had been against earlier. “It’s a good thing you warned us, ma’am,” he says to Bubbles. “If you hadn’t, none of us would have made it out alive.”
Ramil brings to Cardo’s notice his distrust for his police friends. Anton seconds him and is quite eager to get rid of them. Cardo looks on silently.
The news of the encounter at Legarda trends on national television and as expected, the Vendetta is blamed for the dëåths of the countless policemen and civilians. Vice president Cabrera is hounded by the media for a comment on the dëāth of his dëmėnted son and makes it his mission to dehumanize the Vendetta and challenges them to face him.
“Dalisay and Vendetta, I will not back down. The armed forces isn’t afraid of your group. They will hunt you all down, until you’re all annihilated.”
Alyana actually has the guts to nag and remind our favorite hero of the promise he had made to her. Cardo reasons with her and says he would fulfil it once they’re out of their current predicament and Alyana says she would hold him to it.
General Borja informs team Billy about his talk with Jerome, and they all look forward to solve the case so Cardo and his friends could come home and the real criminals would be punished. While Lucas and his sulking wife continue to mourn the dëāth of their psyçhö son, George introduces his comrades to his grandma Melba and grandpa Efren.
The old couple ask why the guys have guñs and George reveals that they’re members of the Vendetta. Efren recounts how he always catches news of the group on TV. While General Borja and his men are doing what they know how to do best – talking over cups of coffee – Vargas comes bearing information about General Perez.
George informs his grandparents about their situation. Melba asks if they had committed a crime to warrant being hunted down and grandpa Efren states that he knows the group is just trying to protect them from corrupt officials. He notices our favorite hero and reveals that he was once a respected cop. Melba asks why they’re being hunted down and Cardo says what they’re doing is illëgâl in the eyes of the law.
“We ended up k!lling the son of the vice president,” Cardo reveals.
“You what?” Melba remarks in disbelief.
“You guys got yourself in big trouble,” Efren mentions. “Real big.”
Hipolito calls Lucas to extend his condolences and convinces him to give his men another chance. Lucas says he wants Cardo and the Vendetta to pay for killing his son and when Hipolito asks of his plan, he tells him to give Homer’s group weäpoñs and manpower in preparation for their next encounter with Vendetta.
President Hidalgo approaches the vice president to offer his condolences. General Borja interrogates Perez about his talk with the vice president on the night of the operation against the Vendetta. The crooked officer claims that he hadn’t given out any vital information but Delfin refuses to be taken for a fòöl.
While the president sympathizes with Catherine for her loss, Lucas talks to Hipolito on the phone again and they plot to go after the families of Cardo and Alyana in order to find information on their whereabouts.
Efren and Melba decide to let George and his comrades stay in their house since they have nowhere else to go. They assure the guys that they would be safe in the neighborhood because they’re good friends with everyone there.
While Genera Borja has a talk with Billy about his suspicion of Perez telling the vice president about the former hideout of the Vendetta, Hipolito brings his men some weapons and briefs them about the mission Lucas had given them. Hipolito hands Homer a photo of the Arevalo family and charges him and his group to do everything to force them to confess wherever Cardo and Alyana might be hiding at.
Homer asks who they should go after first. With Virgie out of the city, Teddy and his son JP resort to snack on some pizza since they probably can’t cook a decent meal for themselves. At the new hideout, Melba asks Cardo about his reason for leaving the police force and he narrates his story.
Catherine reflects on some of the nasty encounters with her dead demented son and vows to make Cardo and Alyana pay. President Hidalgo considers sending the kids abroad to keep them safe from the Vendetta.
Aubrey and Yohan argue against the idea and insist on facing their problems together. Diana asks Jerome and Soriano what they intend to do, whether they would be leaving tomorrow. Soriano says it’s all up to his boss and Jerome says he needs to think things over first. Later, Patrick, cousin of George shows up.
“Who are these guys?” Patrick asks. “And why are there cops?”
“These are all my friends,” George says.
“Wow, you’ve really levelled up. Back then, the cops used to go after you. Now you’ve got some officers on your side.”
While George introduces Cardo and the others to his cousin, Hipolito charges Homer to get the job done and make sure that his and the vice president’s involvement wouldn’t be exposed. At the Dalisays, Grandma Flora is startled awake by a crushing sound. Cautiously, she slips out of her room and tiptoes to check up on the kids.
When she finds them sleeping peacefully, she closes the door, only to be startled again by the sudden appearance of Elmo.Grandma Flora admonishes Elmo for scaring her and when asked why she’s still up, she reveals that she had been woken up by a strange noise so she came to check if there’s an intruder.
Elmo gets all worked up and as he tries to convince Flora to call General Borja or Captain Dingding to send men to protect them, they both get startled by Yolly. Flora brings up the loud noise that had woken her up and Yolly says that was her – she had been checking to see if all the doors were locked.
So paranoid on account of the recent events, Grandma Flora hopes that her fears won’t turn into reality. She then prays for the safety of her family. At camp Crame, General Borja suspects vice president Cabrera’s involvement in the questionable events of late.
Billy comes bearing news of the case Teddy had filed against Marco after he had tried to shöôt him and his son. On this note, the General plans to confront Lucas and have a serious talk with him.
