==================================================================

Synopsis: After giving birth to a blind girl, Cristy Paredes expires. Her husband, Arnaldo (Ricky Belmonte), accuses the child, christened Julie (Sheryl Cruz), of her death and thus neglects her. Some years later, he marries Stella (Suzanne Gonzales), a widow with two children, Jona (Gretchen Barretto) and William (Jovit Moya), who continually bully Julie. Julie only has her nurse-maid, Nana Maria (Estrella Kuenzler), to look after her.

With her eyes on her husband’s fortune, Stella fires Nana Maria and schemes to dispose of Julie, the rightful heiress. One day, she brings her to church and conveniently loses her in the crowd.

At the same time, a bag snatcher is being chased by the police and snatches Julie as his hostage.The bag snatcher brings her to the countryside. Just as he is about to release her, she begs him to take her with him as she is unhappy in her house. She is brought to the Bataan seaside where he resides. His name is Mang Daniel (Robert Arevalo) and he lives with his mother, Nanay Gila (Anita Linda). He gives up his criminal activities and concentrates on fishing. He considers Julie as his lucky charm as he often hauls in a big catch.

Years later, the children are grown up. Jona’s boyfriend is Rolando (Jestoni Alarcon), whose parents recently bought a Bataan beach house. Jona is invited to spend time in the beach house but she turns it down as she is studying for her medical exam.

Rolando motors to Bataan where he spots Julie selling fish. He becomes enamoured with her and visits her regularly. Jona becomes suspicious of his divided attention and follows him to Bataan. Jona discovers his new love object and pulls a tantrum. In order to repossess him, she makes love to him.

Jona becomes pregnant and demands that Rolando marry her. His parents are pressured to convince him as they owe a lot of money to the Paredeses. But he has made up his mind. He has chosen Julie. Jona takes poison and is brought in time to the hospital. She has a miscarriage.
William decides to take action and burns down Julie’s hut. He waits for Rolando at the beach house. He and his gang beat him up. Mang Daniel comes to his rescue and, in the ensuing melee, accidentally shoots William.

William dies and Mang Daniel is put in jail. Julie begs her real father not to continue with the court case. Arnaldo will withdraw the suit on one condition: that she stop seeing Rolando.

One night, Mang Daniel attempts to escape from prison. He is shot and dies. His eyes are given to Julie who has an operation. Julie can now see. Arnaldo has a change of heart and apologizes to her daughter. Stella follows him to Julie’s house and cocks her gun. However, Arnaldo runs to protect Julie and is shot instead. He is rushed to the hospital which does not have stock of his blood type. Julie dutifully offers her blood for the transfusion.

Peace now reigns in the Paredes household. Even Stella has reconciled with Julie. In Bataan, Jona goes over to Rolando and Julie and asks to be forgiven.

Synopsis: Recently divorced from her husband, Atty. Becca Dizon (Sharon Cuneta) becomes a champion of women’s rights and works in a crisis center for rape victims. She lives alone with her daughter. Dave Pascual (Rowell Santiago), an attorney handling activist cases, is her steady companion but she treats him only as a friend.

She becomes interested in the case of Laura Malicsi (Gina Alajar), a bank teller who was found raped and battered in the grasslands of Antipolo. However, Laura refuses to identify her rapist for fear of retribution. After several visits, she finally convinces her to pinpoint her rapist. It is none other than Jing Aureus, a psychopath and the son of an influential congressman.

There is a court case. Several details are brought out which embarrasses Laura. Sonny (William Lorenzo), her fiancé, grins unbearably and leaves her. He returns to her after a while. Laura is offered a settlement of P100,000 but she turns it down. The bank is pressured into putting Laura on indefinite leave without pay. Sonny is beaten up by the goons.

Finally, Laura surrenders and accepts the settlement. She and Sonny will use the money to start life anew in Cotabato.

Becca is miffed with Laura’s abdication. Jing now makes his moves and sets up “accidental” meetings to woo Becca. She begins to be charmed by his outgoing personality. She starts to have doubts about Laura’s story. She now trusts Jing.

Dave protests and is mysteriously sideswept by a car inside a parking lot. Jing’s girlfriend, Faye (Nanette Medved), becomes jealous of the attention paid to Becca. She confronts Becca but is slapped by her. Jing founds out about her confrontation with Becca and hits her. His personality starts changing and he moves into a regressive state.

The dangerous side of Jing has appeared and he must satisfy his pathological desires. It is time again to strike. He gets Becca out of a conference saying that her daughter is sick. But Jing brings her to his Antipolo hideaway to rape and kill her. Becca is able to run away. She returns home to find the nursemaid dead. Her daughter has also been kidnapped. Becca jumps into her car, not knowing that the chauffeur is Jing. Becca is brought again to Antipolo where she sees her daughter. There is yet another struggle but, as Jing corners the mother and daughter, Faye appears from behind and shoots him.
