Bagman

As Benjo hovers between life and death, he encounters his late uncle Dencio's apparition, giving him a perspective on why he should continue fighting and living. When Benjo regains his consciousness, he faces the reality in front of him: that he needs to go back to Magdiwang and be a puppet governor. His first order of business? Build the shady Magdiwang Port.

As news on the displacement of multiple residents linked to the construction of Magdiwang Port breaks out, protesters criticizing the said project sprang up like mushrooms. And, one of the most vocal and influential critics among the opposition is Father Sebastian. To shut the priest's mouth, Benjo resorts to blackmail. Meanwhile, Emman looks for a way to persuade his boss to give him his job back.

After his brutal murder of Father Sebastian, Emman impresses Congressman Matias and earns himself a position within the Congressman's inner circle. Meanwhile, Benjo has to deal with the backlash of the priest's death from the public and the media, which is spearheaded by a vlogger under the name of "Alyas Pepe."

Despite all of the information regarding Angela Go Ming, Congressman Matias, and the Triad syndicate, Benjo must delve deeper into their world to gain hard evidence to bring them down. Benjo gains Go Ming's trust by halting the inquiry into the construction of the Magdiwang Port. With Benjo's success, Angela's confidence in him rises that leads to his discovery of her vault which he believes contains all the evidence that he would need against the Triad.

As Emman keeps an eye on Benjo's every move, he discovers Atty Alex's hiding place. Emman accidentally kills Atty. Alex, leaving Benjo in distress. The key to Benjo's escape plan is now dead. Trying to save as much of his original plan, Benjo realizes that if he can still win with Emman behind his back. Benjo attempts to conspire with Emman. He tries to convince Emman to work with him. Benjo plants a seed of doubt in Emman's mind. That he is worthless in the eyes of the Congressman. That in the end, he can easily be disposed like garbage. Initially, Emman does not have any reason to believe Benjo. Until an encounter with the Congressman makes Emman realize that there is truth in what Benjo is saying. Ultimately, this sways Emman's loyalty towards Benjo.

After Benjo saved Emman's family from the bloody massacre, Emman comes around and accepts Benjo's deal. Benjo will teach Emman all of the things he needs to learn to become a skillful bagman. Now well-equipped, Emman returns to Congressman Matias, but now as Benjo's pair of eyes. While Emman tries to regain Congressman Matias's trust, Benjo is diving deeper into Go Ming's world. As Benjo succeeds in letting Go Ming's guard down, he takes this opportunity to look for any evidence that he may use to expose the Triad's criminal operations.

The divide between Angela Go Ming and Congressman Matias's alliance becomes even more glaring to Benjo. Together with Emman, Benjo exploits this weakness by exposing Matias's shell companies that deal with the smuggling of the country's natural resources. After, he convinces Angela Go Ming that Matias is a loose end that needs to be dealt with. At the same time, Emman convinces Congressman Matias that the exposè is part of Benjo and Go Ming's plan to eliminate him from the Triad. Triggered, Matias sets out to kill Benjo and Angela Go Ming. A Mexican standoff ensues between Angela Go Ming and Congressman Matias. Benjo and Emman are caught in the middle but before any gunshots are fired, Matias drops dead, a victim of poison at the hands of Angela Go Ming. Benjo takes Congressman Matias's place in the Triad and is finally introduced to their boss, Lee Tsu Fang, who is a well-known Chinese billionaire businessman. With Lee's unending plans for Magdiwang Province, it becomes clear to Benjo that they have no plans of letting him and his family go. Now, Benjo has no choice but to force their escape from their clutches. But a new danger looms as Emman discovers Benjo's hand in the massacre of Sitio Liblib, which resulted to his Lolo Ador's death.

Benjo uses his birthday celebration as a diversion to escape from Angela Go Ming and her men. One by one, Benjo and his family manages to leave the Governor's mansion but Emman catches up to him and is out for revenge. At Emman's gunpoint, Benjo pleads for his life and his family's. But Emman shoots him in cold blood. After, Emman goes to Senator Paglinawan and exposes Angela Go Ming and the Triad's plans for the Magdiwang Port using evidence that he gained from Benjo's corpse. Angela Go Ming is arrested and the Magdiwang Port Project is shut down all thanks to Emman who is now a state witness against the Triad. All of which have fallen into place as part of Benjo's escape plan after he managed to convince Emman to spare his life. Benjo is on the verge of leaving the Philippines with his family but the authorities catch up to them and arrest Benjo for all his involvement with the Magdiwang Port scandal. Benjo is sent to a Maximum-Security Prison where he will have to go back to being a lowly barber to survive.
