<p>As viewers of <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/batangquiapo" target="_blank"><u><strong>FPJ’s Batang Quiapo</strong></u></a> bade farewell to Pablo, compellingly portrayed by Elijah Canlas, we’d found ourselves welcoming the latest addition to the primetime series; growing ensemble cast, Kim Domingo, as she left us with a positive first impression as Madonna in last week’s (July 15- July 19) episodes. </p><p>In their pursuit of moving forward from the traumatic experience that she went through at the hands of Pablo, whom Tanggol murdered as his way of avenging what he did to her and to everyone in their household, Bubbles, together with her cousin Emong (Nikko Natividad) applied for the live-selling job that her best friend Jelly (Kim Rodriguez) recommended to them. Fortunately, Tanggol was there to accompany them as Bubbles almost once again became a victim of sexual harassment after the perverted lead recruiter (Nico Antonio) attempted to take advantage of her. Of course, Bubbles was able to stop him by unleashing her femme fatale facet, with Tanggol taking on the finishing touches. </p><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="06b9cac5decc13edae3497a22831561a" data-ivs-spid="3001384" data-ivs-vid="3062669"></ivs-player></div><div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js" type="text/javascript"></script></div><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="06b9cac5decc13edae3497a22831561a" data-ivs-spid="3001384" data-ivs-vid="3062663"></ivs-player></div><div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js" type="text/javascript"></script></div><p>Tanggol once again chanced upon the mysterious motorcycle rider in black, who almost ran him over while he was walking towards the office building where Bubbles and Emong submitted their job applications. The rider, who turned out to be a bombshell, almost hit him and even fired gunshots at him when he attempted to confront her. </p><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="06b9cac5decc13edae3497a22831561a" data-ivs-spid="3001384" data-ivs-vid="3062839"></ivs-player></div><div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js" type="text/javascript"></script></div><p>She led him into an abandoned building where their nail-biting skirmish transpired, and she had managed to topple him down with her mind-blowing agility and fighting skills. She successfully escaped by jumping off the rooftop and getting on the posh red car that picked her up.  </p><p>Meanwhile, the Caballero family continues to grieve the death of their beloved Pablo as they hold a memorial service for him at the mansion. Among those who extended their condolences were the Montenegro family, including David (McCoy de Leon), as he aims to earn not just the affection of Katherine (Ara Davao), but to be the honorary heir of the Caballero wealth as well now that Pablo is already dead. </p><p>Even though there was an ongoing wake at their house, Don Facundo (Jaime Fabregas) still refused to have their group’s mission delayed. Thus, he asked his right-hand, Marcelo (Nonie Buencamino), to bring their new minions there for a meeting, which were actually Tanggol and the group of Primo (Lito Lapid). After their initial meeting with Marcelo, Tanggol came face-to-face anew with the woman whom he encountered earlier, and she was introduced by Marcelo as Madonna, who’s the most trusted hitwoman of Don Facundo. As Tanggol asked why she tried to bring him down, Marcelo said that it was only her way of gauging his skills, and he absolutely passed the test. </p><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="06b9cac5decc13edae3497a22831561a" data-ivs-spid="3001384" data-ivs-vid="3062993"></ivs-player></div><div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js" type="text/javascript"></script></div><p>During their meeting with Don Facundo, Tanggol and Primo’s group accepted his job offer to become his henchmen, but with one condition: he must help Tanggol’s friends get out of jail since they’re going to be great reinforcements. Don Facundo agreed and put the responsibility on Marcelo, who contacted Macasantos (Lao Rodriguez) right away to ask him the favor of busting out Tanggol’s friends. The latter okayed with it in exchange for the hefty amount of money and a high-earning side job that Marcelo promised him. Macasantos told Marcelo to wait for them at the passage behind the National Correctional Facility (NCF).</p><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="06b9cac5decc13edae3497a22831561a" data-ivs-spid="3001384" data-ivs-vid="3063122"></ivs-player></div><div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js" type="text/javascript"></script></div><p>Apart from the Montenegros, Tanggol, and Primo’s group, several police officers led by Rigor (John Estrada) also arrived at the mansion. They were there to start their investigation into the tragic demise of Pablo by attempting to interrogate the Caballeros regarding their knowledge of the possible reasons and culprits behind his assassination. </p><p>While we were left in bated breaths as each episode was peppered with almost encounters among the characters who have underlying personal connections, Tindeng (Charo Santos) finally crossed paths with Rigor and didn’t miss the chance to confront him for what he did to her daughter. A commotion ensued between them, and Señora Bettina (Tessie Tomas) caught them, which totally enraged her. </p><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="06b9cac5decc13edae3497a22831561a" data-ivs-spid="3001384" data-ivs-vid="3063120"></ivs-player></div><div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js" type="text/javascript"></script></div><p>Olga (Irma Adlawan) went to Quiapo to continue her quest for Bubbles, a.k.a., her estranged daughter Samantha. And she succeeded this time, as she finally spotted her in an alley along with Emong and Jelly. She was able to make them tell her what happened, as well as agree to where she and her family currently reside. </p><p>Anxious about what may happen to her, Olga tried to convince Bubbles to stay away from Tanggol because she firmly believes that it was him who brought her into danger. But Bubbles refuted it by claiming that it’s actually him who protects her and her loved ones. </p><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="06b9cac5decc13edae3497a22831561a" data-ivs-spid="3001384" data-ivs-vid="3063252"></ivs-player></div><div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js" type="text/javascript"></script></div><p>Meanwhile, Roda’s (Joel Lamangan) inquisitiveness led to the arrest of Edwin (Ping Medina), whom the authorities have been looking for since he’s a wanted criminal. He was able to follow one of his friends, who got new stocks of illegal drugs from the stall of his parents, Marcing (Pen Medina) and Nita (Susan Africa) and brought them to Edwin. Lucky for Roda, a few police officers were around the area, and they were able to capture him immediately. </p><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="06b9cac5decc13edae3497a22831561a" data-ivs-spid="3001384" data-ivs-vid="3063246"></ivs-player></div><div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js" type="text/javascript"></script></div><p>At the Caballero mansion, David continuously made advances on Katherine, which the latter repeatedly refused as well. He tried to kiss her on the lips, yet she was strong enough to stop and push him away by slapping him. Katherine then chanced upon Tanggol and spoke with him, which David witnessed and got him so jealous. </p><div><ivs-player data-ivs-key="06b9cac5decc13edae3497a22831561a" data-ivs-spid="3001384" data-ivs-vid="3063247"></ivs-player></div><div><script src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/js/loader.js" type="text/javascript"></script></div><p>Thus, he quickly ran towards Tanggol after Katherine left and punched him. As he was about to do it once more, Tanggol aimed his gun at him and threatened to pull the trigger on his face, forgetting that he was his brother. </p><p>It was indeed another exhilarating week for avid viewers of <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/batangquiapo" target="_blank"><u><strong>FPJ’s Batang Quiapo</strong></u></a> as we didn’t only get to witness a lot of “almost” encounters among the characters who have underlying personal connections, but several mind-blowing face-offs as well. </p><p>But what could be considered the highlight of this week’s episodes was the entrance of the latest addition to the ever-growing ensemble cast of the show, promising sexy actress Kim Domingo, who highly impressed us with her ferocity and fighting skills as Madonna. This, apparently, serves as her grand comeback to making teleseryes after taking a break from acting, and she didn’t fail to amaze the viewers as well as prove the creators that she’s indeed worthy of the significant role bestowed on her. </p><p>Viewers surely rejoiced as well when Tindeng finally got the chance to confront her philandering and immoral son-in-law, Rigor and did what she should have done when she last visited their house in Quiapo. Similar when Tanggol finally mustered to fight back at his horrible brother David. </p><p>Here are some reactions posted by Kapamilya netizens on X (formerly Twitter) regarding last week’s episodes of <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/batangquiapo" target="_blank"><u><strong>FPJ’s Batang Quiapo</strong></u></a>:</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Push mo yan Tindeng!
