summary, screencaps, video links for the 2nd episode:
The Madrigal family has mistaken a charred body as Jackie's corpse.
News of the accident spread. Police and firemen came to the scene. Fidel’s assistant came to find the driver in a very critical condition and a body, who got burned in the crash. She immediately assumed it was Jackie.
Pong and the gang managed to escape. He also pretended not knowing about Jackie’s disappearance. Eli passed the police on the way. He prayed hard that his brother would not be harmed.
JB rushed to the hospital with Celine. He could not speak. Fidel was being updated by the Police. They give him a bracelet to identify. Imelda, his sister, confirms it is Jackie’s. Fidel insists on seeing her charred remains.
After getting a change of clothes and buying medicine, Eli hurdles a police checkpoint. He tells the officer that his wife is sick and he needs to get her to a hospital. The man kindly told him that there is a place where they could rest somewhere near. After driving a few meters he calls Pong, who’s now hurriedly packing up his things to go into hiding. Pong blames himself for everything. Eli forgives him and tells what they should do now is think of a solution. Pong later tells their father that Eli was assigned in the province, a commitment he could not back out off.
Everyone now believes Jackie is dead. Fidel could not speak during the eulogy. Monique is even given permission to attend her funeral. Meanwhile some farmers found Eli’s stalled vehicle on the road. After realizing that they need help, Mang Simo and Aling Bebang take Eli and Jackie under their wing. He discovers that they live in a small community, faraway from the town proper. While Mang Simo treated Jackie’s wounds, Eli explained to the couple that it’s their anniversary but their adventure turned into a disaster. Jackie’s wounds were the cause of the dysfunctional brakes of the car. Then they got stalled and it started to rain. Eli gets stumped though when Simo asks him Jackie’s name. The only name that came into mind was Princess. They ask Eli to stay and let Princess’ wounds heal. After some hesitation he agrees.
While Fidel wallowed in his sadness, JB faced his emotions by busying himself with work. Corazon told him to take a week’s leave from work but for JB that’s a sign of weakness. But some were rejoicing over Jackie’s death. The goons who were with Pong were relieved that Jackie’s dead or there would have been big trouble. The driver meanwhile is in a comatose.
Eli while looking over Jackie wonders how he’s going to explain everything to Jackie. His thoughts were interrupted by Guada and some of the neighbors who have come to visit. The woman says Jackie looks familiar. This alarms Eli but Guada explains she looks like someone from Japan, where she used to work. The neighbors’ nosiness makes him want to leave. He burns the shirt Jackie was wearing, the only evidence of her identity.
While JB poured out his sorrows to Celine. Eli talks to the sleeping Jackie, telling her that for the first time in his life, he was caught unprepared. He asks her to remain sleeping while he’s in town, getting in touch with Pong and Dadoods. But as he was looking for a means of communication, Jackie opens her eyes.
