At the same time, Emman convinces Congressman Matias that the exposè is part of Benjo and Go Ming's plan to eliminate him from the Triad. Triggered, Matias sets out to kill Benjo and Angela Go Ming. A Mexican standoff ensues between Angela Go Ming and Congressman Matias. Benjo and Emman are caught in the middle but before any gunshots are fired, Matias drops dead, a victim of poison at the hands of Angela Go Ming. Benjo takes Congressman Matias's place in the Triad and is finally introduced to their boss, Lee Tsu Fang, who is a well-known Chinese billionaire businessman. With Lee's unending plans for Magdiwang Province, it becomes clear to Benjo that they have no plans of letting him and his family go. Now, Benjo has no choice but to force their escape from their clutches.

Trying to save as much of his original plan, Benjo realizes that if he can still win with Emman behind his back. Benjo attempts to conspire with Emman. He tries to convince Emman to work with him. Benjo plants a seed of doubt in Emman's mind. That he is worthless in the eyes of the Congressman. That in the end, he can easily be disposed like garbage. Initially, Emman does not have any reason to believe Benjo. Until an encounter with the Congressman makes Emman realize that there is truth in what Benjo is saying.
