Up-and-coming actress Marela Torre, playing Thalia, the badass security head of crime lord Don Ignacio (Tommy Abuel) in FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano, was one of the earliest fatalities from the series’ still unfinished crossfire in the North.

As Cardo (Coco Martin)’s Task Force Agila and the group of farmers-turned-assassins attacked at Don Ignacio’s art exhibit, Thalia fought Lukas (Joseph Marco), one of the assassins, to allow her boss’ narrow escape.

Battle-hardened, her departure had no shortage of action and thrill – from her stylized duel with Lukas to the latter putting a hole in her heart with a gunshot during the show’s episode on April 8.

In the April 13 episode, Don Ignacio showed desperation to bring Thalia back to life by rushing her to the hospital. But her death would only add another layer of vendetta onto his evil plans.

The story depicted Thalia as Don Ignacio’s fierce protector, hence, it’s no news she sacrificed her own life to save him from the attackers.

Aside from being a devoted bodyguard, Thalia is also remembered for her loud competition with Lucia (Vangie Labalan) as Don Ignacio’s favorite right-hand woman. How would Lucia react to Thalia’s downfall?

Meanwhile, on her Instagram page, Marela shared behind-the-scenes photos and a sweet message to her FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano family.

The daughter of Joel Torre, who also played a major character as Teddy Arevalo in the teleserye, said she’ll be bringing with her a lot of lessons and love. “Thank you, FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano! It’s been a wild ride with you! Walking away with a pocket full of experience and new found friends in this industry. I feel so grateful to have been given the chance to work with the whole production. Pugay, padayon, hanggang sa muli,” she wrote in the caption.

Joseph Marco, the actor who killed Marela’s character on the show, also shared a photo of them brandishing their weapons coupled with a short appreciation message. “Walang personalan, trabaho lang [peace emoji] but seriously, been a pleasure working with you [Marela Torre]! Seeing your work on this project with such dedication made me really appreciate your work! Job well done, Marela! Until the next one!” he said.
