Plot : The eldest and only girl among five children, Susan (Gelli de Belen) grows up in Carmona, Cavite, selling bibingka in Biñan to help finance her education. As a probinsiyana, it is hard for her to fit into radio and TV. They give her the odd assignments and she reports on typhoons, floods and earthquake. She even covers the lethal injection of Leo Echegaray in Muntinlupa and the Basilan presscon of Abu Sayyaf. Susan is taken hostage by the terrorist group Abu Sayyaf in 2000 while on duty in Basilan and is freed for 200 sacks of rice.
