Determined to help with Chito's bail, Joaquin goes to Malaya to sell Chichay's paintings. Unaware of Joaquin's mission, Jaime and the Tampipis panic when Joaquin fails to come home that night. To everyone's relief, Joaquin returns the next day, but when Joaquin cannot recall everything that happened to him the day before, Jaime begins to suspect that something is wrong with Joaquin. Jaime then consults with Dr. Alferos. While Dr. Alferos enumerates to Jaime the symptoms of simple partial seizure, Joaquin suffers from hallucinations back at Poro's house.
