#Borrowed


The scene opened with Clark shown at his workplace, and is given an important assignment of taking care of Filipino guests. It's a big time businessman I'm guessing, and so he tries to make them feel at home. He speaks in Filipino to his guests. The guest is impressed, pointing out that he doesn't look Pinoy. "Clark referee to the guest as "Jebs" (recalling what Leah said)" and the guests leaft because of the insult. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂Aww poor Clark. At home Jack was preparing for the two to meet up. She asked Leah to freshen up, to prepare coz Clark was on his way Denzel breaks the news that he is resigning (because of PSY, Thou?), Clark told them about the incident while he's fixing up for the meet-up, so he will look more "jebs" and this results in Denzel and Cullen laughing uncontrollably at the term. Clark realized that the Leah chick who taught him that almost cost him his job and is royally pissed. And Leah was  praying again to the Lord for a good person. Clark is hesitant too as seen in his walk and facial expression. At first both have their backs to each other when they are introduced. And when they turn, bang. "You?" "She's the one you want me to marry?" Hahahaha! Their facial expression was priceless and Jack was confused. Leah saying me they  have already meet and Clark was a complete asshole😂 and Clark told her of the hotel incident
         Jack was confused and asked what was going on an indignant Clark emphatically declares, "She's the one you want me to marry? Aunt?  that girl is trouble." And Leah said  back right away, "I didn't do anything to you.   ." And they were arguing infront of Aunt Jack until Jack butts in and tried to make sense of it all.But Leah is on a roll with her tirade, ending with,    And finally Clark revealed the Filipino word that Leah taught him,Leah was surprised and wracks her brain as to what she actually told him in Tagalog that it turns out he fully understood. Hilarious! And she even recounts it. And he stared at Leah. Even Jack was amused at the exchange because apparently, the attraction is there. And when the word, "Jebs" is mentioned, the stare and nod turns ominous and Leah slaps herself.
And now Clark is on a roll," And Leah forgot about her embarrasment, and shouted at Clark And they continued bickering until Aunt Jacks yelled for them to stop. And all the chemistry feels are all over the place.
        Jigs was throwing a tantrum again because Leah was not answering his calls. His grandma was trying to appease him saying she might be at work, but he insisted that she is doing it on purpose, and he can't figure out why she is acting this way. The grandma pointed out that maybe she just needed space and how girls react when they get fed up. She told him to just let her go, but he is stubborn, e why Leah broke up with him. What an ass.😎
Back in SanFo, CLeah are throwing each other dagger looks. 😂 . Clark told Leah that she just brings all sorts of bad luck to him. And he details everything she's done, including accusing him of being a thief.Jack has had enough and laids out the terms. Leah needs to marry a green card holder so she can get to extend her stay. Clark has agreed to marry Leah for Jigs and for his Aunt Jack. But Clark said he has changed his mind because he's seen whom she wants him to marry. 'You're gonna have to pay me to marry her." Same goes for Leah. , they don't have to push through with it anymore, and Claek left. Jack tried to convince Leah that Clark is her best option, and that he's really a nice person, they just got off on the wrong foot. But Leah wanted to try other options, and Jack presented one more, (but as fate would have it,) he doesn't even stay alive long enough to get married to Leah. He died, (The twists in this story are so refreshing I swear) Mr. Sol was shown drinking his medicine and is condition is worsening but tried to hide it from his family and Tolayts but they noticed his tiredness. Even Tolayts saids the sickness is no longer a joke. Tifany tires to divert it by complimenting Tolayts. Toylats tried to make the scene light by his  jokes to his Tiffany my love!.
          Leah no choice but to consider Clark again. And we are treated to the first time Clark is shown topless in his apartment being harrassed by Barracuda and his goons and he's getting desperate
as well because he is threatened with violence now.(He's hot😁)
Jack arranged a picnic meeting again, and lays out the terms again. An arranged marriage for $3k. Leah grudgingly says she is already open to the idea but Clark doesn't want to hand it over to her that easy. He wanted her to beg him to marry her. And because she's desperate, she does it in her pacute way, but he says she has to be sincere in her begging. ☺And threatens to back out again., unless she makes him want to marry her. "Make me say yes." And Leah draws out the drama card. And Leah goes down on her knees "Clark, please please marry me." He is shown being uncreasingly uncomfortable because she has completely changed from annoying to earnest, with matching teary expression. And says "Yes I will" hurriedly because he wanted her to stand up already. She is surprised by his answer and hugs him tightly until she realizes who she's hugging and says thank you yet again.
Clark lays the terms out again, but now he wants 10k. "You need me more than I need you. The haggling follows, (these two are so cute when they're fighting.) Jack stepped in with a 7k offer, with the 3k as downpayment and the others to be paid in installment until Leah gets her green card. Finally Clark agrees, with free breakfast thrown in, because  Jack is like a mother to him. They shake on it, with Leah smirking. (Wow. I haven't seen this kind of chemistry in years) .Mr. Sol was shown looking for his wallet, and Tiffany helped him and they realized how much they have been missing Leah's help with the housework, and Gabby noticed his grandpas wallet was in his back pocket.
         Meanwhile, Jack was orienting the two about the immigration officers investigation, to see if they are truly married and in love and it is not a fake marriage. Leah points out that they have no history together and so Jack says they have to fabricate one.
(The next scene has me in stitches.)  They are forced to strip down at a cold SanFo beach area because they wanted to prove that they met each other while Clark was vacationing in the Philippines. (What James is topless again,😘 and Nadine looks super hot in a swimsuit) but they have to pretend they are in love, including Leah sitting on Clark's lap. She warned him of taking advantage of her and he does the same, adding if she does, she has to pay him extra! (The dialogue is so witty!) 😀😁 James touched her face and touches her cheek, and Leah was unconfortable with his stare. with Leah's. Is this considered their first kiss? Jack captures this on film. Leah pulled back immediately and says,And Clark is back to his mode, "You wish." They are exasperated with the sweetness demanded of them in fairness the pictures look great. Leah called her father and asked how he is, and promised to send him money, asks if he is getting by and he assure her that they are fine. He just asks her to take care of herself, and she told him to take care of himself. He also said  the same. (It is a tender moment between father and daughter,)
        Jigs was furious when he learned of the arranged marrej of CLeah But Aunt Jack lays out the terms to him and told him it's all for show. He is scared that Clark will take advantage of the situation, but Jack assured him they really don't like each other. Jigs still doesn't buy it, not one bit. (Yeah Jigs go to hell)
         The next scene was  with Clark on his knees making proposals that are so flat, they are far from believable, complete with bored looks and rolling eyes. 😭Jack is exasperated at them,and asked them to make it more believable  When Leah reminded her that there really are no feelings involved, she directs the scene telling them how they should be doing the scene. This leads to more bickering between the two with Leah harping on how she cannot bring herself to show love to this person and Clark saying she cannot act to save her life. They even bicker as to who has the harder role to play, Clark who has to show his love, or Leah who has to accept his love with matching tears. And this leads to an all-out acting challenge. Clarks asks her to choose,. Even Jack picks up on the intensity of feelings in their argument and asks them to channel that into the scene. Then Clark turns on the acting.The moment he started you can actually believe he is genuinely feeling all the sweet words he's saying.  Up to the part where he gets down on his knees and looks imploringly at Leah, Leah was lost in her memory and again Clark he goes "Boom. Top that." and she rolls her eyes yet again😂😂😂😂. Jack continued to motivate her to think of a moment when she's really really happy she's moved to tears. She thinks of her dead mum hugging her. Clark repeated the cue line, Leah Olivar will you marry me? And she puts all her feelings into her tears and hugs Clark saying she will marry him. The expression on Clark's face in incredulous as well. "Boom" Said Leah😂. Roll eyes to Clark.
          Clark breaks the news to Cullen with the matching story that they have rehearsed. His friend doesn't buy it one bit. But Clark sticks to his story. Leah on the other hand is having difficulty and complains incessantly to Jack. Jack told her that her nephew is really a great guy, and she needs him more. Cullen guesses the real reason and Clark cannot deny it anymore. Jack reminded Leah that she is doing this for her family. Then cut to Clark Cullen teased him.Leah yold Auny Jack she was doing ll that coz of her family.
        Meanwhile, in the Olivar household, Mr. Sol was caught taking herbal supplements and Tiffany asked  him when he had become so health conscious. He is taking this to replace his maintenance meds and Tiffany looks suspicious that he is hiding something. She reminds him that he has to take maintenance meds still.
Clark and Leah are put to the test. They are brought to this party with other OFWs. And they have to pretend in front of other people that they are this happily engaged couple. She reminds them that if they get caught by immigration even Clark's green card will be in jeopardy, so Clark is quick to put his arm around Leah and when they are told to smile, it is automatically pasted on. They are introduced as a couple and when Jack faces a lot of questions about how Clark met Leah she wards them off by sayin In the middle of feigning sweetness they look at each other with pointed looks. When asked where they met, they build up on a story that they met in a resort and Leah takes this opportunity to make up this story about how they met one beautiful morning...😂and we have a fantasy sequence which has Clark romantically falling in love at first sight with her. reaching out to her and .Clark gave his own version how they met and Leah had stain on het shorts 😂😂😂. And only to give his shirt so Leah can cover a stain. We ended with CLeah pinching eachother and arguing who met who first and Aunt Jack came in btwn so the two could stop the argument.

ON THE WINGS OF LOVE ❤ EPISODE 3.



#BORROWED

The scene open up with Jack and Leah venture out and they see an immigration officer accosting an illegal alien and Jack warns her about the dangers of being reported when her visa expires. She is taught not to be a show-off, not to borrow money all the time and to be invisible, so that people will not notice her. And the word DEPORTED is repeated over and over again, so she will be careful. The sequence is made funny because they are shown hiding behind their hands every time they witness someone investigated by the immigration officers. Jack tells Leah to just follow everything she says and she will be fine. It's probably more difficult in real life but
they portrayed it well, that life is not always easy even in the land of plenty.
Clark is shown at another job of his, being a waiter at a bar. His friend Cullen comes over and asks him to join them because he's so busy. It's Talent Night at the bar, and a chance to win some money. Cullen wants him to join, but he says he's a waiter, and can't. Clark, was forced to sing...of course...it's the theme song again otwol. And yes Clark has a pleasant voice, it's a bit on the thin side but he can certainly carry a tune. 
Leah is introduced to her new job and now she knows what "invisible" means because she is literally made to pass the back passages. Jack helps those without papers but they have to do it incognito. She gets the salary, she pays the tax but she passes on the money to the one who really worked on the job. Leah finds out how tough it is when she is made to clean the whole building, which will take the whole night. Leah tells herself."I can do it and proceeds to do her job, cleaning one room at a time. Meanwhile, Clark is doing the same thing, and the superimposing and interspersing of scenes makes for a great montage, both are cleaning up in the late night. There's even a short horror clip for special effect. (I loved the scene where both are lying on the floor exhausted and made to appear that they are facing each other) .
When Leah got her first pay, she was overwhelmed and Jack told her to go reward herself, but Leah refused because she had to send it to her family back to the Philippines. Jack told her that she reminds her of her nephew Clark. Leah computes her earnings, and it amounts to 51k a month, a lot better than what she gets in the PH, Of course she's interested in getting a green card, because that will mean better-paying jobs, but it will really take a while before she gets it. Jack told her to persevere in the small paying jobs, swallow her pride for her family. Leah sad she doesn't want to fail...for her Tatang. And Jack is touched by her love for her family, and they share a tear-filled moment as she is called anOFW(over seas philipino workers) , that which sacrifices everything, blood, sweat and even honor for the families they left behind.
Clark apparently also has that heart because he wanted to buy a gift for his sister, despite his money problems. Denzel reminded him of this but he saids he's going to get her one anyway because she's expecting.and Clark says "Story of my life." Aww. (The special handshake between the two friends is well-choreographed.) 
Meanwhile, Leah still can't find her mother's grave but promises to never stop looking. She Skypes with Tiffany who asked her how she was and she proudly says she has a job already. Tiffany reminded her of her promise and she respectfully says she will keep it.
Clark's payment of the month is given to Barracuda. Threats are made and he promises to keep his promise.
Leah's different jobs are shown, babysitting brats, (the little girl looks like Yassi Pressman) boys throwing food at each other with her in the crossfire. And yet, she is shown being able to literally in different corners of her room, for different people and purposes. She walks to work and she's really tired, and rests for a while but her bag is stolen. Then the old person she is caring for is cranky and blames everything on her, and verbally abuses her. This drives her to tears, as she cleans up the mess. . It is a hard life, as she's learning fast and one thing that helps her is talking to her Mum who probably experienced the same thing. She appreciated what her mother has done for her even more. A bird flies out the windown and she takes it as a sign that her mother is listening.☺
Jack greeted her brother a happy birthday through Skype. It looks like her brothers Romy and Abet are good for nothing bums, 😂😂who are only out for a good time and not really helping the grandmother Pachang. Jack, turns out is supporting all of them, A lot of people depend on them for everything. Even small items are put inboxes for their families in PH. They talked about Jigs, how Jack has spoiled him and that's why he's rough on the edges, she even asked her to consider taking Jigs back, but this is disregarded by Leah. Jack informed Leah of a new employment opportunity of someone who can attend to her working visa.
Clark comes along to visit Jack and she used this opportunity to tell him to try to get to know her boarder better. He grudgingly agreed. 
(This is an eye-opener of an episode which really shows the other side of working abroad. It's not always a bed of roses and only the strong survive.) 
Leah meets up with a prospective employer. This sleazy-looking sketchy man who has a goatee and looks like a Chinese mafia. Leah promised to do everything, and so he threws her a skimpy attire and asks her to audition for sexy pole dancing. (What!) Needless to say, the offer is rescinded.
Clark is tired of waiting for this boarder of Aunt Jack, and said he has to leave, but not before he is cornered by his Jack about why he only has $30 to send to his siblings in the Philippines. And he is forced to say he is paying the loanshark. As expected the Aunt Jack is mad, and told him so, that the next time he has a problem with money he has to come to her and no one else. Clark and Jack have this cute greeting and leave taking thing going on, they bump their foreheads together. There is a strong bond between the two.(I adore them) 
Meanwhile we have dejected Leah walking home, tired and frustrated, and someone dumps water on her from above. Then all wet, she bumps into Clark, yet again.😂😂😂 Clark is angry again, "Great you again. Look at what you did to my clothes. " "Sorry Sir." He continues "Are you doing this on purpose?" "Why?" the wet Leah asked. "I'm going to get a restraining order against you." Leah. Why are you always angry at me?" "Cos, I don't even know you, you're making my life hell." Leah answered "My life is already hell today too!" Clark again said "Who cares?" (Zero chills Clarky boy!) to which Leah just shouted after him, "Sorry!"
Jack is so apologetic to Leah for that job recommendation. And now the only course available for Leah to take, because she doesn't want to be a illegal is to marry an American so she can get a green card. She is only too willing, until she finds out what it is. It is repulsive to her, and even asked Jack if it's illegal. But Jack is just calling it a "shortcut". Many Filipinos have resorted to it in the past, including her. She had to pay an old bald American guy to marry her just so she can get a green card. Leah says she cannot do it, because she cannot fall in love. But the term marriage of convenience is introduced to her, and explained. She doesn't have to be in love to get married. This is still unacceptable to her because of what her father has ingrained in her this whole time that marrej is all about love.
Mr. Sol receives the bad news that he needs a heart bypass surgery from his doctor. He doesn't have the resources. "Health is wealth" from the doc and "Health is for the wealthy"
The upside is the good news from Leah that she is now able to send money to them but she sugarcoats her condition and says she is in a good state and they shouldn't worry about her. This is relayed to Tifan when she called her but he doesn't tell Tiffany of his own troubles.
Leah was deliberating her choices on whether to explore the marriage of convenience in a church, and when a bird flies into the church she gets her answer. I like it that she does this in prayer o amount of computing is solving it. Leah is computing on her own, because she is starting to warm up to the idea of an arranged marriage, all for the price of $3500 And Jack and Leah is becoming amenable to any just to get a green card but Jack doesn't want her to get into trouble. Leah speaks of destiny, maybe she wasn't destined to be married to someone she doesn't love, and Jack sees this as an opening to push forward the option of Jigs again, but realizes that they have to find one in two weeks.
This problem is shared with Clark, who just says she should just go TNT, because that won't kill her, and there are people with bigger problems. Jack asks him about his situation, he says he's handling it. But Jack knows he's working himself to death with 4 jobs just to be able to pay. And it hits her..."What if, He gets marred, running, this is getting exciting!)
Clark actually chokes on his water but Jack was determined to be heard out. It is a perfect plan...Leah is willing to pay money, and he needs money. But Clark has the same reaction as Leah, "No way" to getting married to someone they don't even know. But his aunt pleads for him to think about it, she has been in America long enough to know the system and how it works, and she pulls the family card. Do it for your cousin Jigs. This will help him a lot. And we see a whole other side to Clark, he is not always sungit after all. Clark gave in.to the idea.

We continue with Leah who just bumped into Clark 😂 
“I love you! ”
Clark is taken a back, 
“What did you just say? ”
Leah who now seems to be stammering 😂
“I love you.. . USA! ”
She insists he didn't let her finish.  Clark isn't being too fresh with her,  he tells her that he doesn't know where she is from but there in America people don't just go hugging random people.  Leah doesn't hear the rest of what he is saying 😂 blahblahblah.  He walks away as she hits herself for acting crazy.

Meanwhile Clark talks to Denzel about a certain Marakuta guy who was looking for him.  Clark tells Den that Marakuta is a loan shark and he owes him money.  He wasn't able to raise enough for his siblings tuition the previous month.  They then talk about how Clark met up with a very weird girl outside 😂

Leah and the rear of the choir are eating.  The food was catered for by some people Lorenzo and his wife.  Leah asks them to excuse her.  As she is going I think to the loo,  she happens to see Clark and to save herself from embarrassment she starts hiding trying to keep him from seeing her 😂 she ends up back at the table and when the coast is clear she joins the others.

Meanwhile Jigz is a moron 😂 he sends a group of muscled guys to serenade Leah back at her neighborhood 😂 they come and perform a dance number then reveal their messages by holding up letters and with the writings on their chests 😂 “Leah I luv you,  am sorry ” High then makes his grand entrance with some teddy bear and flowers.  To his disappointment he is told that Leah already left for the states and is super angry about that destroying the poor teddy.  Leah's father tells him that he is just plain stupid because he knew very well that Leah was scheduled to leave.  He then calls Leah as if everything is okay.  He can't believe that she actually chose to leave without him but he will forgive her as long as their next monthly celebration is on her.  Leah tells him that their relationship is over because he ended it.  She doesn't want him waiting for her because she has no idea how long she will be staying there.

She would like to make it up to him with some material gift but Jigz still hasn't thought about what he wants from her.,  he is however jealous of his cousin.   He asks her time go meet up with his girlfriend who just arrived in the US with her choir.  She will.  He doesn't even let her tell him how she loves him when he hangs up.  Jackline his mother then talks to her mother who asks  her time help her siblings out with some money to start off some business.  Both Clark and Jackline don't know ow where they will get the money to support their families but they are both survivors and will come up with something.

She then gets to talk to the woman housing them.  The woman tells her about her story of how she came to the US from the Philippines and her story really touches Leah who tells her that she reminds her of her mother.  Unfortunately her own mother wasn't able to fulfill her dream because she died there.  The woman encourages her not to give up on her dreams.  Meanwhile back in the Philippines,  Jigz is looking at an album,  he sees his mother's pictures and pictures of him and Leah.  He tells himself that he won't let Leah leave him too.


The next day after choir practice,  the choirmaster asks them if any of them would want to extend their stay and three of them including Leah would want to.  She tells them not to become illegal immigrants because they will give the choir a bad name.  Outside Leah meets with Jigz mother who is all too happy to meet her and shows her around San Fransisco.  They then head out to the cemetery to see her mothers grave.  Meanwhile Clark bombs into his father in a restaurant.  His father completely ignores him and walks out with his other son.  Clark later goes to his mother's grave to  rant about his father.  Meanwhile Leah and Backline don't really find the grave and have to go back.  Jack takes her back.  Clark remembers when he and his mother first came to the states with hopes that his father would accept him but how they were disappointed when he rejected him and how his mother eventually die of pneumonia.

The choir makes it to fourth place and they all seem happy about their achievement.  Leah Skypes her dad and tells him about the great news and he is happy about it.  She also reminds him that she is going to stay over in the US and he reminds her what they talked about,  that she shouldn't even think of becoming an illegal immigrant.  Later she talks to her sister Tiffany who she tells about not being able to find their mother's grave.  She thinks that maybe she just visited the wrong grave but will continue searching  for her grave.  Meanwhile Denzel invites Clark out but he can't go with him because he still has a lot of responsibilities waiting for him in Manila and still need a to pay that Marakuta guy his money.

Jackie can help. 


The next day at the carpentry shop the kids are helping out with the work and they seem to be ready good at it.  They praise their brother clark for also being great at carpentry.  Just then we see Clark who is done with making furniture at some old woman's house who seems to really admire his work.  Back in Manila,  Jack's brothers seem to be bums 😂 when their motgwrvwalks in with some cash,  they automatically think it's theirs but she tells them that its money sent by Clark for his siblings school fees.  She thinks that if they tried to work and stopped making their sister slave away in the US maybe they would be far 😂

Episode 1 begins with the show's mantra, "Love like you would a bird. Love it with all your heart and should it want to fly, set it free because if it is meant for you, it will come back."

Leah narrates that she has learned this liberating kind of love at a young age when her mother left for the US to be an Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW), frequently showering her and her sister Tiffany with postcards and gifts sent via Balikbayan boxes.

One day, Leah's pet dove goes missing and she runs in a panic only to be met with the terrible news that her mother has died in an accident. The grieving family hold a funeral to an empty casket because it is simply too expensive to fly the remains back to the Philippines.

Clark is playing with Jigz,  Jigz wants them to cook the little bird they found but Clark won't let him touch or harm it because it has an owner 😂😂😂 They end up arguing over this until their aunt comes around and tell a them both to stop. Jigz' mother wants to talk to him.


Meanwhile, Clark returns Leah's pet dove on his way to the airport.


Years pass and a grown-up Leah (Nadine Lustre) applies for a US visa as part of a choir heading to San Francisco for a singing competition. Leah and her teammates ace their interviews by humming a few tunes while most other applicants that range from a shady businesswoman to a ditzy girl looking to marry her Facebook fiancee find their applications rejected, providing a satirical yet realistic account of the lengths people go through to get a visa.

On the other side of the globe, Clark (James Reid) participates in an oath-taking ceremony to become a US citizen though it is quickly revealed that he is still a green card holder who is only at the event in support of a friend.

For Leah, Rona's death creates a desire for her to go to the America and fulfill her mother's "American dream".

Ten years later, this dream comes true as Leah gets her visa to compete in a choir competition in San Francisco, California. After the contest, Leah extends her stay in San Francisco with the intention of visiting her mother's grave, and to find a way to legally work in the United States. However to her surprise, Leah does not find her mother's grave, and as her visa expires, finding a job that will allow her to remain in the United States also becomes elusive.

With the urging of Jack (Cherry Pie Picache), the mother of Leah's ex-boyfriend, Jigs (Albie Casiño), and out of desperation, Leah agrees to a marriage of convenience so that she can get her visa. But with Leah's limited resources, it will be hard for Jack to find her a partner. The only suitable person that would agree to the small amount that Leah is willing to pay is Jack's nephew, Clark (James Reid), who has been living in San Francisco for the past 11 years. His life has been full of heartbreaks as he went to the United States with his mother, Ofelia (Katya Santos), to be introduced to his American father, Kenneth. Soon after, Kenneth refuses to recognize Clark as his son, and Ofelia suddenly dies. Clark gets placed into foster homes, where he was abused. Later, because of his love for his siblings in the Philippines, Clark persevered and survived in the U.S. These misfortunes and responsibilities in life deprived Clark of romantic love.

Despite their disastrous first meeting, Leah and Clark spend time as a fake couple and learn about each other's past, quirks and habits in order to pass the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) interview. As time passes, Leah and Clark discover a certain fondness for each other. They also realize that both have the same goals in life and that is to make a better life for their family.

They also start to sympathize with each other, as both reveal their deepest secrets. Soon, the sham marriage between Leah and Clark becomes real.
