5 Friends- Estelle, Khryz, Luna, Jace, Cyla

Wide shot Ng different parts Ng Baguio

(K boses: Life is full of surprises. May mga masasayang bagay na di natin inaasahang mangyari, but there
are also challenges that make us doubt our capabilities and existence. May mga ala-alang masarap
balikan pero may iilan ring gusto mong kalimutan)

Wide shot ng daan, nagmamadali si K sa crowd (malelate nako agh!). J na nasa gate may balcony na
nakapwesto na titingin sa watch nya (Ako nanaman nauna) E na kakababa ng sasakyan (they better not
be late) C na nasa corridor na papuntang gate 7 (this is so exciting)

Shifts to K Who reaches the entrance, He looks up at the building in front of him. UC, gate 1

Split screens (4 sabay sabay boses lang): I'm back. Ano nga bang nagbago?

Fade screen. Title.

J: Hindi parin nagbabago, late parin

K: Sorna Jace, my alarm didn’t work

E: You’re an accountant of a known firm and you couldn’t even afford a new one?

K: Alam mo namang may pinag-iipunan ako.
