D' Lucky Ones!

This plane is quite shy, that's why its back's turned on you.

Are you okay, ma'am?

Yes.

Mom, you've seen that on DVD many times over in Korea, right?

- Yes. - Why still cry over it?

This one might have a different ending.

That's exactly one of the reasons why I don't like the Philippines.

Filipinos who are so into showbusiness.

It' s clear here. B2, is it clear over there?

It' s okay here B1. Alright, call ma' am.

Ma' am! Over here!

- Let's go. - We' ll stay here. Listen up.

When I say, play the music, you play the music, okay?

When I say dance, you dance, okay?

You take care of that. I really don't know how to dance.

When I tell you to do the cartwheel, do it.

Then, raise the banner. I' ll give them the flowers.

When I say go ahead, go ahead. Okay, let's get ready.

Good afternoon, everyone. This is flight 344.

Cebu Pacific's flight from Kalibo to Manila.

For your information we are the only Asian airline...

that conduct games in flight.

And if your answer is right, you get to win our Cebu Pacific prizes.

We' re giving away Cebu Pacific fisherman's hat. There you go.

Joseph is going to show it off to everyone.

Dude, you too haven't come home to the Philippines for quite a while?

Dude, for almost three years already.

Okay, let's start our first trivia question.

Where's your province?

I' m from Batangas. In Lipa City.

I know the mayor of Lipa. She's famous.

If Nora Aunor is our Superstar, and Sharon Cuneta is our Megastar.

Who is our Star For All Seasons?

Who's that again?

- It's... - No, don't say it. I know her.

- Vilma Santos! - Vilma Santos!

Why don't I like Vilma Santos?

Vilma has a great deal to do with our lives.

It was started by our mothers.

My mother's a die-hard fan of the Star For All Seasons.

Because of that, my life's been in shambles since childhood...

up to now that I'm all grown up.

My mom's being a Vilma fan led her to meet her best friend.

Since then, their lives have become intertwined.

Even with her mothering style, my mom's still a Vilma fan.

You probably watched cartoons when you were young...

while I watched Vilma's movies.

That's why I learned how to speak Tagalog.

It' s Val! It' s Val! It' s Val! It' s always Val! The innocent Val!

Okay? Repeat after me, baby, c' mon!

It's Val! It's Val! It's Val! It's always Val!

The innocent Val!

Very good, baby! Very good!

If your mom would read bedtime stories...

my mom would do a song and dance number.

That would've been fine...

but even my birthday parties were still all about Vilma!

On my 5th birthday

we're both donned as Vilma's mermaid character, Dyesebel.

On my 6th birthday, I played Darna's brother, Ding! It's cool!

I' m Ding!

Darna!

Of course, I wouldn't wear the Darna costume!

Happy birthday, son.

I love you, Lucky.

I love you, Doods.

I love you, Tina.

My mom must be callous to my feelings.

Because on my 7th birthday...

she turned me into Vilma's hunchback bell-ringer character!

I suppose, you already know what happened.

I grew up without any friends!

I gained lots of friends! They thought my parties were cool!

It' s about time, comrades, to return to the path of unity!

If we won't do anything, who will?!

If not now, when?!

There's no miracle! Happy birthday, Lucky Boy!

My friend, thank you!

The following year, we didn't hold a party.

I thought my mom realized that I didn't want it.

I was wrong. She was just sympathizing with her bestfriend.

Because my dad passed away.

Sister!

Sister, how are you holding up?

Yesterday, he was still alive. Today, it' s already his funeral.

Tomorrow?

His ghost will haunt you.

Don't frighten me. You know l' m a scaredy-cat.

Sister, it's hard.

But l' ll be strong for the sake of my only son, Lucky Boy.

Oh, this is my only daughter.

It's Lucky Girl!

I miss you! I miss you!

Do you know that l' m your godmother? Since birth!

Friend, you know...

I' m not sure if it's a blessing from the sky that Doods passed away.

At least, it reunited us.

You' re right, sister.

It really seems like a blessing from the sky.

Do you see what I see?

What? Where? Where's he standing? He might have some last words!

- Doods?! - Nonsense!

Look at them, shouldn't they end up together?

What? Lucky Boy and Lucky Girl?!

Well, no one can ever tell.

Perfect!

Come, take a look at Doods. He's still very handsome.

Take a look.

Let me see.

I thought my mom has forgotten about her crazy pact with Aunt Tina.

But when I grew up, I wasn't happy with what she told me.

Now that your father has passed away, there' d be changes in our lives.

When our travel papers are done...

we' ll go home to the Philippines and stay there for good.

What?! Mom?!

Yes. We' ll start over in the Philippines.

With your aunt Tina and Lucky Boy, your future husband.

No! I won't marry that monkey! No way!

It's done! Lea and I have made a deal!

And she said that Lucky Girl has agreed to it!

When they come here next year, you and Lucky Girl will get married!

Mom, why are you screaming?

It's none of your business! This is how Vilma talks!

And she also said...

Mom?

Mom? Mom?! Mom!

Mom?! Mom!

Help! Help!

Mom?!

Lord! Lord just make her live, please!

Lord, just make her live and I'll marry Lucky Girl!

Mom!

Mom?

Mom, are you okay?

I' m good.

But our agreement is better.

Mom?!

Oh, I heard you make a vow to the Lord!

Mom! Okay, okay.

Miss! Miss flight stewardess why did you turn the TV off?

Turn it on again!

It's important! Vilma and Claudine are fighting in that scene.

Turn it on!

Ma'am, the plane is about to land.

Well, while the plane's landing, we' ll let the mother and daughter fight.

I really like that scene.

Ma'am, please, ma'am. I' m really sorry. I also have to take my seat now.

I've an idea. While you take your seat, talk to the pilot.

Tell him that you have to turn the TV on...

because if I don't get to watch that part, l' m gonna die!

That Vilma and Claudine confrontation scene is really beautiful!

But we really have to....

My vacation's cut short because...

I'll have to pick up the woman I never intend to marry!

I believe that I'll only marry my soulmate.

Mr. Pilot, I really love to see Vilma and Claudine fighting.

Because Claudine is just wasting on alcohol and cigarettes...

the money her mother Vilma is sending her!

Please, let me have the remote control.

Tell him I need to finish watching the movie!

Monkey!

Cut it! Wait! Not yet! Just relax! False alarm! They' re not yet here!

Won't you give me the remote control?! Miss!

Lucky Girl? Lucky Girl? Lucky?!

Oh, where's my daughter? Lucky Girl!

Ma'am, ma'am, he's here.

Ma'am, not your friend but your son!

Lucky Boy, it's good that you' re here!

Lucky Girl is coming. You give her the flowers...

so that when she sees you, she' ll know that you' re Lucky Boy.

No need, mom. The plane from Korea has arrived much earlier.

She's not coming anymore.

That's not true!

Mom, believe me, she's not coming over.

You believe me!

Why is your back soaking with sweat?

Here! Have this! You might get ill.

You won't be able to go out with Lucky Girl.

Mom, stop it. It's embarrassing.

Don't be silly. I' m your mother!

I used to change your pants when you'd wet your bed!

Now, you' re embarrassed?! Be so, rather than you get sick!

There you go. Let's wait up for them.

- Dude, l' m out of here. - Okay. I' ll cover for you.

I can already smell my best friend.

And Lucky Boy, when Lucky Girl arrives.

Where's Lucky Boy?

He just went to the restroom to get a haircut.

Lucky Girl! Lucky Girl!

They' re already here...!

Sister, you really look so beautiful!

Lucky Girl is missing!

Okay, you first.

No, no, no. You first.

Is it okay?

Okay, thanks.

Hello, Mr. Arbiso, I apologize....

Is this for real? Is this what my grandmother used to tell me?

You've talked to Thea in the office, right?

Alright, tomorrow will be fine. I' ll be there.
