Iyon naman ang pangarap ko sa kanya bilang isang ina.&quot; </p><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-version="7" style="background:#FFF;border:0;border-radius:3px;box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15);margin:1px;max-width:658px;padding:0;width:calc(100% - 2px)"><div style="padding:8px"><div style="background:#F8F8F8;line-height:0;margin-top:40px;padding:50.0% 0;text-align:center;width:100%"><div style="background:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAABGdBTUEAALGPC/xhBQAAAAFzUkdCAK7OHOkAAAAMUExURczMzPf399fX1+bm5mzY9AMAAADiSURBVDjLvZXbEsMgCES5/P8/t9FuRVCRmU73JWlzosgSIIZURCjo/ad+EQJJB4Hv8BFt+IDpQoCx1wjOSBFhh2XssxEIYn3ulI/6MNReE07UIWJEv8UEOWDS88LY97kqyTliJKKtuYBbruAyVh5wOHiXmpi5we58Ek028czwyuQdLKPG1Bkb4NnM+VeAnfHqn1k4+GPT6uGQcvu2h2OVuIf/gWUFyy8OWEpdyZSa3aVCqpVoVvzZZ2VTnn2wU8qzVjDDetO90GSy9mVLqtgYSy231MxrY6I2gGqjrTY0L8fxCxfCBbhWrsYYAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC);display:block;height:44px;margin:0 auto -44px;position:relative;top:-22px;width:44px"> </div></div><p style="color:#c9c8cd;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:17px;margin-bottom:0;margin-top:8px;overflow:hidden;padding:8px 0 7px;text-align:center;text-overflow:ellipsis;white-space:nowrap"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BFZBcW5TXLE/" style="color:#c9c8cd;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;line-height:17px;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">A post shared by Mae Subong (@maesubong)</a> on <time dateTime="2016-05-14T14:26:50+00:00" style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:17px">May 14, 2016 at 7:26am PDT</time></p></div></blockquote><script async="" defer="" src="https://platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js" type="text/javascript"></script><p>The waterworks was triggered by the revelation that Pokwang and her fellow celebrity contestant JC Santos were in danger of elimination after garnering the lowest number of scores since day 1. </p><p>Pokwang told the audience, who had the power to determine who will stay on the show, that they didn&#x27;t have to vote. </p><p>&quot;Pangarap ko rin naman para kay JC, bilang isang nanay-nanayan din niya, gusto ko na maipakita pa niya kung ano pa iyong kaya niyang ibigay sa inyo. Kaya nakikiusap po ako na ibigay niyo na po kay JC,&quot; she said. </p><p>With Pokwang&#x27;s departure, the remaining contestants, Santos aside, are Sue Ramirez, Gab Valenciano, Wacky Kiray, Cristine Reyes, Arci Muñoz, and Daniel Matsunaga. </p>
