"They helped the Cubans kick out the Spanish." "We have no reason to believe they will not do the same here." "I say give peace between us a chance!" "Well said, Señor Paterno." "This has to be a concerned effort, Joven." "Everyone who came before us gave their lives for Freedom." "If the Americans are targeting Spain, why haven't they joine us in our struggle?"

"Tell him he doesn't have authority over me because I'm the commander of Pampanga." "The President gave him authority over the troops... but not over Generals like him." "Is that so?" "Rusca!" "Ride to Arayat and tell to Mascardos face that I will... have you arrested for stubbornness." "Is that a threat?" "General, Id just like to remind you that what's important is you return to Bagbag with reinforcements before the Americans attack." "I was about to leave but that Lunas arrogance is intolerable." "Who is he to give me orders?" "If he wants a fight I'm not backing down!" "Roman, send a telegram to every official under Mascardo and tell them they are to report to the main headquarters in Pampanga tonight." "They are all under my command so they cannot disobey."

"Luna has not been able to stop the enemy's advance." "We should ask for a cease fire so we can talk with the Americans." "Granted we are at a disadvantage." "But how much is America willing to sacrifice?" "Do you know how much it costs them to wage this war?" "General Luna is outside." "Give us a minute." "Gentlemen." "Bring your glasses." "Twenty four hours jail time is too short, I see." "That's why I surrendered." "Brandy?" "Mister President," "I would like to resign as Head of the Armed Forces." "Why?" "It's impossible to do my job under these circumstances." "Especially when I just heard that the traitors Paterno and Buencamino have been set free." "They are respected citizens." "They have contributed resources to our cause." "They promoted annexation undertheEnemy s flag while our soldiers and I are out there fighting the very same enemy." "I will not accept such treason while I'm alive." "General Luna, you maybe a military genius but you Do not understand politics." "If setting traitors free is how you define politics, then I want no part of it." "I am sorry but I cannot accept your resignation." "But I cannot You are the only one who can lead our Army." "Our Motherland needs you." "Then allow me to lead." "Allow me to in still discipline!" "And please approve my plan to erect a fortress up North." "That is the only way of defeating the Americans." "What can you tell me about General Luna, aside from what we've already seen?" "Aside from what we've already seen?" "We have something to confess." "We believe he has a hidden agenda." "This happened recently." "General Luna lost his temper in front of everyone at the plaza." "What's new about that?" "He said he wont hesitate to shoot all traitors," "even if it was you, MisterPresident." "And there are rumours that... he might be thinking of installing himself as supreme Military Dictator to replace you." "Where did you hear this?" "I'myseIfwitnessed his outburst at the plaza." "We heard from other officers about his plans." "Those are just rumors." "You knowLuna, fullofhot air." "He does not hide his feelings." "It may be hot airtous but Luna means what he says."

"Let's not forget that he abandoned hispostinBagbag, resulting in great losses." "Our country would be in a sad state indeed if only one man is capable of leading the military."

"We would dance the night away." "Do you remember those times?" "Yes." "And we allowed you and Juan to study in Europe." "Where our minds were awakened about the state of the country." "It all began with a dream to win our rights under Spain, until we woke up to the truth... due to their ceaseless condescension of our race" "that we are no different from them." "But those dreams were shattered when they killed Dr. Jose Rizal." "I grow sad whenever I think of him, and his sacrifice."

"Our convictions." "You and Juan we're always the closest." "And in some ways, we share the same destiny." "Destiny, Antoñito?" "Is this destiny or choice?" "You've become a skilled doctor." "There's a peaceful life within your reach but you choose to wage war." "Some politicians and businessmen don t like the way you are running things." "They say you are too arrogant and strict." "They say you are mad with power." "Don't mind the rumors." "II have a job to do and sometimes." "II have to step on some toes to get it done." "I heard from Quinito." "It's possible that the President himself is against you." "Aguinaldo is not stupid." "We respect each other." "We are both Masons." "Like Andres Bonifacio?" "Here." "Wear this." "Your father and brother Manuel are dead." "I don't want anything to happen to you and your brother Juan because of this war." "People who feel are not slaves."
