Bernardo tries to make amends with Gillian, and he tells her that she’s free to go back to her parents! Soon, the two patch things up, and Bernardo goes a bit emotional on Gillian, as he tells her that he may not see her again. Gillian tells him not to say such things, as she will plead for his freedom, but Bernardo tells her that her parents are already set on having him sent to jail, so there’s nothing he can do.

They make their way downstairs, each step leading to Gillian’s freedom. However, they stop short as Raul, Bernardo’s greedy accomplice, appears out of nowhere to threaten the two! As such, Bernardo rushes to Gillian’s aid, and shoos Raul away. Pissed, Raul heads over to Mike, and tells him that he’s willing to tell him where Bernardo’s hideout is, if Mike will give him two million pesos in exchange for it!

Meanwhile, Bernardo lets Gillian talk to Rose, and Gillian tells her that Bernardo will personally return her, and that there’s no need to pay a ransom anymore. However, Andrew also receives a call from Mike shortly after, telling him that they’re on their way to Bernardo’s hideout! Andrew tells him not to push through anymore, as Gillian’s going to be returned anyway, but Mike, consumed by anger, has already decided to get back at Bernardo.

As such, Mike, Raul, and the police all head to Bernardo’s hideout, as Bernardo and Gillian make their way out. Raul tells Mike that he should go first, so that it won’t look suspicious. However, it turns out that Raul is the bad guy, as he aims a gun at Gillian and Bernardo the minute he steps inside the hideout. Bernardo and Gillian then make a mad dash for safety, but Raul catches up to them, and eventually fires two gun shots at Bernardo, and another at Gillian! Soon, they get rushed to the hospital, but while Gillian is finally out of harm’s way, Bernardo, on the other hand, is in critical condition.
