Mariposa: Sa hawla ng gabi Page #3

Synopsis: Set in 1994 Manila, the story is simple; an innocent girl caught in a web of horror. The main protagonist is a probinsiyana (country girl) named Maya (Erich Gonzales). Maya however is not the typical probinsiyana--she kills and skins wild monitor lizards who feed on their live stocks. Maya receives a telegram from her sister's friend Vivian (Ma. Isabel Lopez) obliging her to take a trip to the city about something important and that her sister Mona needs her. In the city, Maya discovers that her sister is already dead. Maya needs to raise 40,000 pesos to claim her sister's body or it'll be sold to a local university. Maya, innocent and all inquires about a tacky tattoo that has the name "Carlos" on her sister's arm. Maya assumes that "Carlos" must be someone special and perhaps can aid her into claiming her sister from the morgue. Restless Vivian paves the way. Maya will uncover terrifying truths about her sister and what happened to her in a journey that takes her into the darkest, mo

for Tanya.

The King is picky, sensitive

and fickle, but very thoughtful.

You're not a court lady.

You can't serve His Highness.

Teach the court lady

how to make gabi.

Minister Veber asked me

to do this.

Making gabi is my job.

Who do you think you are!

Please talk to Minister Veber

to discuss things about me.

Tanya!

Please make some coffee.

Okay.

I'll go make gabi.

Follow her and keep an eye

on her all the time.

Yes, ma'am.

Your Highness,

please enjoy your coffee.

This coffee is popular

in Russia these days.

Are you wearing that thing

because we're not in the court?

I'm not a court lady.

Ready.

One, two, three, four.

Can I look around

Russian army?

Do you speak Russian?

I practiced for this.

We didn't spend

so much money

to get a stupid thing

like you!

The King asked for the Japanese

officer who visited Russian army.

Meeting the King is

part of my plan.

I'll stop Chosun from

making its own troops.

Never act on your own

without my permission.

Don't forget you're also

Japanese here.

If you want to beat me,

you should be a real Japanese.

BAE Yu-jeong.

I'm Japanese to the core.

You should live that way, too.

Never act on your own.

Chosun's weaponry has a secret.

I can't bring Japanese army

to find it out.

Miura doesn't approve

any plan he doesn't know.

That's how Japanese works.

Where's Mrs. Sontag?

She went to the hotel

for urgent business.

She asked me to do it.

I heard gabi trees grow

in hillside in tropical regions.

Gabi fruits are similar to

reddish cherries.

Fresh gabi beans are green,

and turn dark when roasted.

Roasted gabi produces

fruit or floral aroma.

When crushed,

it has spicy fragrance.

When you brew gabi in water,

it tastes both sour and bitter.

You can taste each aroma

at the tip of your tongue.

Make another cup.

If you don't like the aroma,

I'll make another kind.

No.

Fill this room

with gabi aroma.

I'm Yusuke Sakamoto.

Thank you for accepting present.

Isn't Japan having a war

against Taiwan?

That is true.

Why didn't you go to Taiwan,

but come to Chosun?

Japanese army needs to stay

in Chosun as well.

Never spy on my army again.

Next time I could cut off

your head with this sword.

There's no army to spy on

in Chosun.

I just looked around

how lazy Russian army is.

This won't happen again.

Japan is a country of sea,

but Chosun of mountains.

Toyotomi couldn't conquer Chosun

because of those mountains.

What's the secret of

Chosun's weaponry?

Aren't they using

Japanese guns?

They combined Japanese

and Russian firearms.

The King's buying

Russian weapons.

We need to find

those who help the King.

We'll allow no more

Russian weapons.
