Short filmTranscript
00:00At the beginning of the movie, Renolfo brings his ill sister Loretta to a shaman named Almira.
00:27Almira recites some prayers over her and gives her something to drink.
00:31After a while, a blue liquid starts coming out of Loretta's mouth, and after some time
00:35of suffering, she dies.
00:38Seeing this, Renolfo becomes very sad and says that he brought his sister here to save
00:43her, but now she is dead.
00:45Almira then gets up, extinguishes the candles, and covers the idols of her gods with a cloth.
00:51She tells Renolfo there might be another way, and begins performing a ritual on Loretta,
00:56causing the room's light to flicker, and the cloth covering the idols starts moving.
01:01After a while, Loretta's body suddenly shows movement, and she starts levitating in the
01:06air, which frightens both Renolfo and Almira.
01:10Loretta then returns to bed, a symbol begins forming on her stomach, and she suddenly wakes
01:15up.
01:18We then see Eileen and her husband Clark at a church, attending the baptism ceremony of
01:24their friends, Janet and Bob's son, Anton.
01:27Bob asks them if they are planning to have a child, but they do not respond.
01:31The next day, Eileen is with her father Louis in the hospital, and she tells him that as
01:36soon as he wakes up, she promises to have Louis cook his favorite callous.
01:41Louis responds by moving his fingers, and Eileen is overjoyed to see that he has awakened.
01:47However, when he looks at her, he tells her that he doesn't need her, and suddenly his
01:52condition worsens.
01:53Eileen panics and presses the bell to call the nurse, but then she realizes that her
01:58father is dead.
01:59Later, she confides in Clark and says she knew this was bound to happen, but she has
02:04many questions that will never be answered.
02:07Clark tells her that her dad was not in his right mind, and that whatever he said, he
02:12didn't mean it, so she shouldn't take it to heart.
02:15She says that when her mom died, her dad took care of her, but she failed to take care of
02:19him.
02:20Eileen explains that comes with being a parent, and it's not an obligation, to which she asks
02:25what she would know about being a parent, since she couldn't even give him a grandchild.
02:30A few days later, Eileen attends the birthday party of her friend Ronna's daughter, Julia.
02:36Amid the celebration, Julia begins to scream that she doesn't want animals and magicians,
02:42but mermaids.
02:43Her mother tries to calm her down and feels very embarrassed in front of the guests.
02:47She then goes to Eileen and says that Eileen is very lucky because she doesn't have headaches
02:52like this.
02:53She says Eileen's time and money are all hers, leading a life of peace.
02:58She then asks if has she considered IVF or adoption, to which Eileen says they considered
03:04everything, but Clark just has too many issues.
03:08Janet says she gets it and it's probably his guilt.
03:11Ronna suggests her to manifest a child, but both of them should really want it.
03:16While they are talking, we see a man outside, watching Eileen.
03:20In a flashback, we see Clark on duty when a man tells him that he heard howling from
03:24one of the containers.
03:26Clark asks him to open the container, and as he does, they find the container pitch
03:31dark.
03:32Clark asks the man to give him light, and as they all move forward inside the container,
03:37they hear growling and get shocked to see a terrifying creature inside a cage that suddenly
03:43screams.
03:44Clark wakes up in his room and finds that Eileen is not in bed.
03:48He finds her on the balcony and asks if she is okay.
03:52Eileen says it might work with Dr. Lester this time, to which he responds that they
03:56have already seen so many doctors, and all of them have been very expensive.
04:01She tells him that her dad left some money, and that Ronna said if they both wanted enough,
04:05it will be given to them.
04:07Clark then asks, aren't just the two of us happy?
04:10That night, Eileen wakes up hearing the doorbell, and she tells Clark that she thinks someone
04:15is at the door.
04:16Clark goes to check and finds a little girl standing there.
04:19Confused, he asks her who she is and if she is with someone, but just then, Eileen arrives
04:26and the girl hands her a note with the name Jade written on it.
04:30Eileen brings the girl inside and asks Clark to get a towel.
04:33Later, Clark finds some photos in her bag and asks Jade how she got past the gate, to
04:38which she replies she was looking for him.
04:41Clark asks if she knows him, and Jade responds with Colonel Clark Martinez.
04:45Clark tells her he is no longer a cop and asks if she is in trouble, to which Jade says
04:50her mommy told her to look for him.
04:53Clark asks where her mom is, and Jade replies that she can't come back, and when Eileen
04:58asks about her dad, Jade says that Clark is her dad.
05:02Clark says that what Jade is saying seems impossible, and Eileen admits she's not
05:07sure.
05:08She then asks how Jade knows him, to which Clark explains that she only knows his rank,
05:14which can be found online, and when she asks how Jade knows their address, Clark says he
05:19is just as confused as she is.
05:22The next day, they take Jade to the police station, where Colonel Jake shows her a photo,
05:28and she identifies the woman as her mom, and in the next photo, she says the woman is Almara.
05:34Jade then says she is hungry, and Eileen asks Jake if there is a canteen or a food
05:38vendor at the station.
05:40After Eileen and Jade leave, Jake asks Clark whose child Jade is, and Clark replies that
05:46he has no idea.
05:48While Eileen is buying food for Jade, she notices that Jade is no longer with her, and
05:53meanwhile, Clark tells Jake that there's no way the child is his, because he can't
05:58even get Eileen pregnant.
06:00He suspects that the child might just be after his money.
06:03Jake responds that if the mother were trying to extort him, she wouldn't have waited
06:07this long.
06:08He suggests that Clark take a DNA test to get the situation resolved.
06:13Meanwhile, Jade enters the prison area of the station, and finds a man there as he approaches
06:18her.
06:19Jade tells him that Joe Pat will shoot him on March 22, and the man looks scared upon
06:24hearing this.
06:25Just then, Eileen arrives looking for her, and Jade turns to her and calls her mommy.
06:31Eileen tells Clark that in the meantime, Jade will stay with them because she's not
06:35from Manila, and it will take a while to track down the people in the photos.
06:40Jake mentions that he knows someone from child services, to which Eileen says he knows their
06:44address, and if Clark is indeed Jade's father, then Jade is not an orphan.
06:49Eileen adds that their house is like a fortress due to Clark's business, so Jade will be
06:54very safe there.
06:56As they enter their car to return home, Clark notices a man watching them from a distance.
07:02That evening, Clark hears some whispering coming from Jade's room, but when he goes
07:06to check on her, he finds that she is sleeping.
07:09However, as he leaves, Jade starts chanting something in her sleep.
07:14Simultaneously, we see an entity chanting the same words in a different location, where
07:19the dead body of Loretta is lying in front of it.
07:22The next day, Clark is reviewing some photos and notices a girl in the background, revealing
07:27that he had a romantic encounter with her.
07:30His attention then shifts outside the window, where he sees a woman standing on the building
07:35opposite, staring at him.
07:37Just then, his phone rings and Manuel informs him that he is calling from child services,
07:42and when Clark looks back, he is shocked to find that the woman has disappeared.
07:47Meanwhile, Eileen asks Jade why she was looking for Clark, to which she responds that her
07:52mommy said the colonel could help find a new home for her.
07:55That night, while Eileen and Clark are sleeping, Jade comes over to Eileen and starts chanting
08:01something, and Eileen begins mumbling the same thing in her sleep.
08:06Clark suddenly wakes up and is terrified to see an entity over Eileen, but when he grabs
08:10his gun and points it at the entity, he realizes it's just Jade, and Eileen says she's just
08:17a child.
08:18The next morning, Jade tells Clark that her mommy used to talk about him a lot.
08:22He asks how her mommy could talk about him if she doesn't know him, to which Jade replies
08:27that her mommy said he is good at keeping secrets, and then asks if her mommy is his
08:32secret.
08:33Clark insists he doesn't know her or her mother and that she shouldn't even be here.
08:37Jade retorts that her mommy also said he is a liar.
08:41Frustrated, Clark says he doesn't know what she wants, but if it's money, what she's
08:46doing isn't right.
08:47He informs her that child services will help her and that someone is coming tomorrow.
08:52He tells her that he knows this is hard to accept, but whatever she is looking for isn't
08:57here.
08:58She asks if he doesn't want to have a family.
09:01During this, Clark gets a text from Jake saying that he has the DNA results, and Jade then
09:06says, he is the only one missing.
09:09Later, Rona tells Eileen that if this happened to her and Dan, it would be an instant split.
09:15Eileen responds that the police are still investigating and asks if she can throw out
09:19a kid who has nowhere to go.
09:21Meanwhile, Julia notices Jade standing outside the railing, and Jade looks at her and then
09:26jumps down.
09:27Julia runs to her mother and tells her that Jade is dead.
09:31Alarmed, they rush to check on her, but find Jade playing down there, unharmed.
09:37After this, we see Jade bringing a dead bird back to life, and Julia asks if she knows
09:43magic.
09:44Jade then brings the bird to Julia, and, without saying anything, kills it in front of her.
09:50In a flashback, we see the entity emerging from a cage, prompting Clark and his team
09:55to try to shoot it, but the entity moves swiftly, evading their bullets.
10:00It jumps around, killing all of Clark's companions, and just as it is about to attack
10:05Clark, Jake shoots it and saves him.
10:09Jake tells Clark that he is not sterile, to which Clark responds that it's impossible
10:13because all the doctors they consulted said he was sterile.
10:17So how Jade could be his daughter?
10:19Jake asks, where he hooked up with Loretta, and Clark reveals it was in Marenduke, 2016,
10:26where she was a waitress for his first client.
10:28Jake asks if he and Eileen got married in 2016, to which Clark says 2015.
10:34Jake suggests that Clark might have become sterile after impregnating her, and jokes
10:39that maybe she cursed him for being an a**hole.
10:42He then asks how Eileen is with the kid, and Clark admits that sometimes she acts like
10:47Jade is her own child.
10:49Jake says if Eileen falls in love with Jade, Clark could gain an instant daughter and suggests
10:54that he tell Eileen the truth, as she might forgive him.
10:58Clark then notices a man watching him, and goes out angrily to confront him.
11:02He starts beating the man on the road, but the man keeps laughing.
11:06Jake intervenes and tries to stop Clark, but Clark pushes him away and continues beating
11:11the man.
11:12Soon after, the police arrive, and Clark becomes terrified when he sees the man's face, and
11:17in the chaos, the man manages to run away.
11:21Clark is arrested and put in jail, and Jake explains that he is not a cop anymore, and
11:27shouldn't act like an action star.
11:29He asks who the guy was that he beat up, to which Clark explains that they've been
11:33stalking him for days.
11:35First a kid, then a young girl, and now this man.
11:39He says they all look the same, and they seem like part of some kind of cult.
11:43Jake says he is just paranoid and asks since when, to which Clark replies since Jade appeared.
11:49Later, the man in prison approaches Clark, and asks if the little girl visited him and
11:54warns him not to let her come here.
11:57He says, she has the tongue of an angel, but the hands of the devil.
12:02Clark asks what he is talking about and how he knows Jade, to which the man tells him
12:06that the girl is possessed.
12:08Meanwhile, Eileen sees Jade jumping on the bed, trying to reach the ceiling.
12:13At first, she thinks Jade is just playing, but to her shock, Jade touches the ceiling
12:18and begins to levitate in the air, however, it turns out to be just a nightmare.
12:24She then comes downstairs, hearing someone laughing, and her shock intensifies when she
12:29sees her dad playing with Jade.
12:31Confused, Eileen approaches them, and her dad asks if she decided to have a kid right
12:36after he died.
12:37Suddenly, her friends and family appear, and tell her that Jade is not hers.
12:43Terrified, Eileen notices blood on her tummy, and as she screams, a fetus is shown that
12:49turns demonic, and she wakes up from her sleep again.
12:53Later, Eileen discovers that Jade is Clark's daughter, and Clark tries to explain that
12:58it was just one night, and that he was very drunk.
13:01Eileen points out that he blamed her when he learned he was sterile.
13:04Clark insists that this has nothing to do with that, but Eileen says she wishes it did
13:09because it would have been easier to accept.
13:11She asks if there are any more secrets he's hiding, and he replies no, apologizing to
13:16her.
13:17Later, feeling guilty, Clark tries to talk to Eileen, reminding her that he has already
13:22apologized, to which she says she said okay.
13:26Clark says he will fix this, and Eileen responds that this is what he is good at.
13:31As Clark begins to leave, Jade looks at him with anger.
13:35Eileen gets up and asks if he can fix this, and Clark gets terrified when she turns her
13:39head and it falls down, but the next moment, she calmly asks him to be careful.
13:44Meanwhile, Manuel from Child Services arrives, but he is attacked and killed by a living
13:50dead.
13:51On the other hand, Jake searches police records and discovers that Loretta was one of the
13:55passengers who went missing after a bus accident.
13:59He calls Clark to inform him that Loretta was last seen in Plaridel, Bulacan.
14:03However, the bus fell into a valley, and all the passengers died.
14:08Loretta and Jade were on that bus, but their bodies, along with Loretta's brother, were
14:13never found.
14:14Jake says he has the address of the crash site and suggests they go there.
14:19As they talk, Clark hears the door of his room opening, but doesn't see anyone there.
14:23Unbeknownst to him, Jade is on the ceiling right above him.
14:27Clark spots the man and that lady on the CCTV camera and angrily rushes out to confront
14:33them.
14:34Meanwhile, as Jake leaves, Joe Pat enters the station, revealing that it is March 22.
14:39He approaches the man in the prison and shoots him before he can say anything.
14:43On the other hand, Jade watches Clark searching for the man and the lady with a creepy smile
14:48on her face.
14:49In a flashback, we see Loretta, her brother, and Jade on the bus, when suddenly it is hit
14:56by a truck, causing it to fall into a valley.
14:59The scene shifts to show that Jade survived the accident, but Loretta and her brother
15:04are dead, and Loretta's body is gruesomely cut into pieces.
15:09Jade approaches Loretta's brother, rubs him, and whispers something in his ear, which brings
15:14him back to life.
15:15She then does the same with the other passengers, and they all come back to life.
15:20Clark returns to his house and finds Eileen in her room, breastfeeding Jade, and she gestures
15:25for him to be quiet.
15:27After putting Jade to sleep on the bed, Eileen steps out, and Clark tells her they need to
15:32leave immediately.
15:34Eileen reveals she is lactating and shows it to him, and Clark gets shocked, but he
15:39insists they talk about this later and that they are not safe.
15:44Eileen then tells him she is pregnant, to which Clark responds that it's impossible,
15:48but she mentions Loretta, saying that nothing is impossible now.
15:52At that moment, Jade comes there and Clark points a gun at her, declaring that she is
15:58possessed, but Eileen hugs Jade and Clark pleads with her to come with him.
16:03As he tries to explain, the door behind him opens, and as he looks back, a living dead
16:08attacks Clark, knocking him down.
16:11It turns out to be Loretta's brother Renolfo, who attempts to strangle Clark while another
16:16living dead takes Eileen away.
16:19Clark struggles against Renolfo, but then another living dead appears and knocks him
16:24unconscious.
16:25After a while, Jake arrives at Clark's house and, sensing something is wrong, immediately
16:31calls for backup.
16:32Next, we see Loretta's mutilated body still eerily breathing, and Clark wakes up tied
16:38to a tree.
16:39He sees Jade and the others preparing for a ritual around Eileen, and only then Jake
16:44arrives at the scene and quickly frees him.
16:47Jake is also shocked by the horrific scene, and as he turns, his head explodes, and Clark
16:54is horrified, barely able to comprehend what just happened.
16:58Clark moves toward Jade in an attempt to save Eileen, but the living dead begin to move
17:03towards him.
17:04However, Jade explodes their heads just by moving his hands, because Clark is her dad.
17:10He then confronts Jade, asking why she is doing this and what she has done with Eileen,
17:16to which Jade replies that mommy can come back now and they will finally be together,
17:21Clark says.
17:22Let's end this, and shoots Loretta's body, and as Jade cries for her mother, Clark rushes
17:28to Eileen and tries to take her away.
17:32However, Eileen's body suddenly starts shaking violently, forcing Clark to put her down.
17:37He tries to revive her, but she passes out again, and Ranulfo shoots Clark.
17:43Clark finds Jade in front of him, and tries to reach her, and Jade extends her hand towards
17:48him, but to his horror, he sees an entity instead of her, and he dies in agony right
17:54there.
17:55Eileen wakes up suddenly, and Jade approaches her, calling her mom.
17:59Eileen gets up and starts following her, and as she walks, her tummy begins to hurt,
18:04and she sees an incomplete symbol formed on it.
18:07She then approaches Jade, who takes out Jake's car keys and gives them to her.
18:12As they walk, Jade says she is whole again, and when Eileen asks her where Clark is, Jade
18:18replies, daddy didn't want to come.
18:20As they get in the car, we see Loretta's body still breathing, meaning the ritual is unfinished.
18:26Eileen decides to start a new life with Jade, and drives towards the house, and the movie
18:31ends here.
