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.

Synopsis: The police are investigating the death of a woman in the mansion of Aling Ensiang (Charito Solis). She has reportedly committed suicide. Abel (Julio Diaz) happens to pass by and shoots photos of the dead woman.
Sometime later, Aling Ensiang hires the services of Mara Romero (Sharon Cuneta) to redesign the interior of the old house. She hears sounds emanating from a locked room. She becomes obsessively curious about the room but Aling Ensiang forbids her from opening the door. As she is fixing the house, a mentally retarded boy suddenly appears and introduces himself. He is Ren-Ren (Jeffrey Padilla Ong). Aling Ensiang raises a howl when she sees him and has her helper, Enteng, put him back into the locked room.
To dispose of Ren-Ren, Aling Ensiang and Enteng drop him on the sloping hill of Antipolo. He is blindfolded and told to play while the duo speeds on.
In the evening, Mara spots him wandering on the hill. She asks her boyfriend, Louie (Rowell Santiago), to stop the car but he refuses, saying it is a matter for the police.
Mara is mad and upon reaching home, calls up Abel to help her. Louie is jealous of the attention she pays to Abel.
Mara and Abel find Ren-Ren asleep and full of bruises among the tall grasses. He is brought to a doctor and then to her office. The following day, he is brought back to Aling Ensiang who is surprised to see him. Ren-Ren refuses to get off the car and there is a struggle with Aling Ensiang. Mara and Abel become suspicious of her motives and
drive off with Ren-Ren.
Mara goes to the police. She sees her name in Lt. Boquerin’s wanted list and sneaks off. Lt. Boquerin (Raoul Aragonn) becomes suspicious of her hasty departure and has his policemen follow their car.
Mara’s office is not safe as Aling Ensiang’s men have been lying in wait. Ren-Ren is brought to Abel’s pad. Mara calls Louie who has become wild with jealousy. He goes to Abel ’s pad where he has a boxing match with him. Mara puts a stop to the fight.
Ren-Ren now talks. The dead woman was his mother. Aling Ensiang has killed his uncle Carlo and buried him in the garden. In order to prove that she is a killer, they have to unearth the body.
In the dead of the night, Mara and Louie dig up the corpse. However, Aling Ensiang’s men discover their presence. They are brought to the house where Lt. Boquerin is a welcome visitor. He is in cahoots with Aling Ensiang. Abel drops by and is also captured. Lt. Boquerin intends to lock them up in jail and they are put in the rear of the car. However, they are able to overpower their captors and the three manage to fight it out. Mara wrestles with Aling Ensiang who is electrocuted with a socket.
The honest policemen arrive. Lt. Aberin has subjugated Lt. Boquerin. Abel is hurt. An ambulance has been called to bring him to the hospital.
