The November 14 episode of “What Lies Beneath” details Edong’s (Jake Cuenca) abuse of Celestino (Bart Guigona), as he purposely waits for the drunk policeman to appear.
Wearing a dark hoodie and cap that conceal his identity, Edong deliberately bumps into Celestino, who immediately lashes out at him, before Edong drags him to an abandoned house and ties him up.
Edong, armed with a bat, walks slowly toward the waking Celestino, and with enough retaliation still in him, he asserts his superiority just as he did back then. Even as Edong fully reveals himself, Celestino’s shock is fleeting, replaced by a hateful demeanor as he once again degrades the now-adult Edong, asking if this is all for revenge
In swift succession, Edong begins striking Celestino with the bat—the same way Celestino did when Edong was younger and accused of Louisa’s (Mutya Orquia) murder. With every blow, he relives the past pain, and as Celestino reaches a desperate point, begging for his life, Edong, now apathetic, strangles and beats him to death.
With Celestino slumped on the floor, no longer breathing, Edong turns to the camera and declares that the next viewers of the video will be his next targets—primarily Erica (Kaila Estrada), Beth (Charlie Dizon), Alice (Janella Salvador), and Mel (Sue Ramirez).
