The La Playa Roja siege is escalating into tensions in the November 28 episode of “Roja.” As Uno (Joel Torre) intensifies his orders and threatens everyone, guests begin to fear for their lives, and more secrets are about to unravel. Greta (Lorna Tolentino) looks back on her past, where she was involved in illegal financial activities---a secret she tries desperately to keep from Magnus (Raymond Bagatsing).

Liam (Donny Pangilinan) and Olsen (Kyle Echarri) decide to lower their pride, working together to find strategies for survival as the siege unfolds.

Uno's deadly command

Uno (Joel Torre) gathers the guests at the resort’s banquet hall. He warns everyone not to attempt an escape, as armed men are stationed and scattered throughout the resort premises. He intimidates the crowd, declaring that the guests must remain in the hall, while the staff and crew will be seized in the stockroom. The staff---including Happy (Rubi Rubi), Smile (Rikki Mae Davao), Joy (Sophie Reyes), and Love (Inka Magnaye)---are taken there, all of them crying in fear. Love tries to assure the others that she knows ways to escape, but Happy reminds her of the danger it could bring them.

At the event hall, Dos (Marc Abaya) informs Uno that no one outside the resort premises is aware of the hostage situation yet---a sign that their plan is going well so far. “Kailangang matapos tayo dito sa loob ng dalawang araw,” Uno tells the younger man, adding that they should not stay any longer than that, as the police and outsiders might catch on.

Uno then steps onto the platform and orders the captives to surrender their phones to his men. Soon after, they are forced to wear blindfolds. “Kapag sumilip, patay! Dahil ang makakakita ng mukha namin, babarilin ko!” Uno threatens the crowd. Some guests, like Jabbas (Iñigo Jose), attempt to fight back, but he and his friends fail. Everyone is left with no choice but to obey. Their hands are later tied as well.

From the side, Magnus shouts, “Ano ba talaga ang kailangan n’yo sa amin?” Uno replies that they want everything the guests have---especially their money.

Later, while guarding the area, Kwatro (Harvey Bautista) peeks inside the event hall and spots a familiar face among the captives, Jules (AC Bonifacio), a well-known social media personality. Kwatro approaches with a sly smile, kneels beside Jules---who is lying on the floor asleep---and discreetly strokes her hair, while she remains unaware.

Liam and Olsen's risky plan

Bravely roaming the now-empty resort, Liam keeps his gun poised, ready to shoot at any time. He walks cautiously and suddenly bumps into Olsen, both of them instinctively pointing their weapons at each other. The two continue searching different areas of the resort, guns in hand, making sure each section is clear.

Liam then informs Olsen that the thieves have taken control of the security room, which means they must now avoid all CCTV cameras. He adds that the guests and staff have been abducted, and that the thieves are heavily armed.

“Kailangang pag-isipan natin nang maigi ito. Wala tayong laban,” Liam says. Olsen resists, stressing that if they waste time planning their next move, it will take too long to save everyone. Liam counters that reckless people die quickly, but Olsen seems to take the remark personally. The two nearly break into another heated argument, but in the end, they lower their guards and agree to work together to save the others.

Mama Ona Chan hides until Luna discovers him

Unaware that his managed talents and everyone else in the resort are being held captive, Mama Ona Chan (Xilhouette) and a hotel staff member are in the laundry area. The staff hurries to leave, worried that his boss might be looking for him, but he freezes in place when he sees a masked man pointing a gun at him. The staff tries to fight back and engages in a brawl with the thug, but is eventually shot.

As the armed men search the laundry area, Ona Chan hides under a pile of covers, trembling with fear that they might discover him. Fortunately, he remains unnoticed, and the men declare the area clear.

Later, Ona Chan decides to stay hidden, afraid the armed men might return. His anxiety rises again when he hears small footsteps entering the room. It turns out to be Luna (Maymay Entrata). She reassures him that he need not worry about her, as she is an employee of the resort. She explains what is happening outside and urges him to follow her for his safety.

Greta's dark past resurfaces while Magnus suspects Uno

At the event hall, Magnus asks Greta if Uno’s voice sounded familiar to her. “Bakit sinabi niyang ‘ang tagal ko nang hinintay ’to?’” he wonders aloud. Greta only shakes her head and says she doesn’t know. Magnus tries to recall if they had been caught in a conflict with anyone in recent months, but Greta’s only response is “Wala akong alam.”

This makes Greta reflect on her casino days, when she had been deeply involved in gambling---putting her money on the line, taking out heavy loans, bouncing checks, and watching the interest pile up. She had been given an ultimatum, with no extensions, or else Magnus would eventually find out.

Her thoughts are cut short when Magnus continues to dwell on why it seems Uno knows their family so well, including Liam. Greta feels relieved that Liam is safe, unaware that her son is still at La Playa Roja, planning to save everyone from the chaos.

A deadly chase after Wendy

Liam and Olsen return to the latter’s house, where Wendy (Janice de Belen) is supposed to be hiding. Panic sets in for Olsen when he finds no trace of Wendy anywhere in the house, while Liam begins strategizing a plan to enter the banquet hall without being detected by the security cameras. The two decide they can pass through the air-conditioning vent and quickly move to carry out the plan.

Liam and Olsen climb into the vent and inch closer to the banquet hall. As they move slowly, dust falls from the ceiling, catching Tres’s attention and making him suspicious. Liam peers through tiny holes in the vent and sees his parents held captive. This leads Olsen to conclude that Wendy, Chief Ben (Levi Ignacio), and even Luna have not yet been caught.

Meanwhile, Kwatro continues working on the technical systems, including gaining CCTV access from the security room to the banquet hall. Later, he successfully connects the camera feeds to the TV screen, earning praise from his brother, Tres (Bernard Palanca).

From above, Liam and Olsen observe everything and reflect on what the goons might want, and they are probably after money. Olsen tries to reassure himself that his mother and grandfather would not be targeted, since they are not wealthy like the other guests. “Kapag nahuli sila, ano sa tingin mong mangyayari? Baka patayin din sila,” Olsen worries. Liam then assures Olsen that such a fate will not happen.

The two later return to the security area, where they discover a cable running from the CCTV screens down to the banquet hall. Liam sets up a local network using a router and manages to access the CCTV cameras from his phone. As Liam works, Olsen monitors the footage and spots Wendy walking near the beach activity area. Liam realizes they are not the only ones who saw her---Uno’s armed men are also monitoring the same footage and are likely aware that Wendy is still within the resort premises.

This catches Tres’ attention. He immediately calls for his men and orders them to go after Wendy. Liam and Olsen panic and rush outside, determined to reach Wendy before the armed men do.

Wendy wanders aimlessly, unsure where to go for safety. As she walks, she trips---and comes face-to-face with Chief Ben’s lifeless body. Olsen watches from the shadows, and both he and Wendy cry silently, grieving for Chief Ben.

Roja's explosive pilot recap, netizens react with mixed emotions

The first week of “Roja" gave us an in-depth look at the characters’ backgrounds---the struggles they went through years ago, and how betrayal, infidelity, and criminal activities ruined their relationships with one another. We were taken to the scenic view of La Playa Roja, a resort owned by the Roja family, which aims to offer a perfect feeling of opulence and peace---or so we thought.

Beneath the perfect view of La Playa Roja lies the dark past of one of its owners, Magnus Roja, who was caught in an affair with Ayen (Yassi Pressman) by his wife Greta and son Liam. This strained the family’s relationship, especially between Liam and Magnus. A deeper wound for Liam was discovering that his childhood best friend, Olsen, knew all about the affair but chose to stay silent since he worked for Magnus as the resort’s security personnel. This marked the beginning of the rivalry between Olsen and Liam.

Years later, the affair caused Magnus and Liam’s relationship to crumble. As Liam left for culinary school in New York, he got into a heated argument with his father and later overheard Magnus admiring Olsen’s determination. This fueled Liam’s anger even more, leading him to accuse his former best friend of envy.

While their sons were locked in rivalry, their mothers, Wendy and Greta, remained the best of friends---but with dark secrets of their own. Wendy was imprisoned for years for a crime she did not commit, serving as Greta’s fall guy for illegal money activities. This was in exchange for Greta helping Wendy with financial aid for her family.

We were later introduced to the VIP roster of guests at La Playa Roja. Among them were influencers caught in a love triangle---Jules, Ice (Kai Montinola), and Bogs (Emilio Daez)---alongside their manager, Mama Ona Chan. The Morillos, Doc Jessie (Robert Seña) and Conney (Sandy Andolong), together with Nurse Claire (Rans Rifol), were entangled in an affair involving Doc Jessie. The family of Mike Del Rosario (Cris Villanueva) arrived with his daughter Maddie (Zia Grace) and wife Minnie (Nikki Valdez), who is battling stage 4 cancer. And the children of the wealthy, Jabbas, Macky (Kobie Brown) and Boss Topak (Benedict Cua)---came together with Rita (Maika Rivera).

What they thought would be a fun vacation turned into a nightmare when Uno and his team infiltrated La Playa Roja. Uno, who was wrongfully imprisoned, sought vengeance specifically against the Roja family. His daughter is Ayen, who was previously involved in an affair with Magnus.

The guests and staff of La Playa Roja were held captive, including Magnus and Greta, while Liam, Luna, and Olsen went on the run to keep everyone safe. However, lives were lost, including Chief Ben’s, Olsen’s grandfather.

The armed men who infiltrated La Playa Roja were known by their Spanish numerical codenames. According to Uno, their sole reason for the siege was money. The attack was unexpected for the guests, who were shaken by gunshots, screams, and loud noises that escalated their anxiety.

This has only been the pilot week, but more secrets, violence, and revelations are about to unfold. Even Kapamilya netizens are tuned in and did not hesitate to share their reactions online:

Still reeling from the revelation of her husband’s affair with Nurse Claire (Rans Rifol), Conney (Sandy Andolong) grows suspicious of everything. Inside Jessie’s (Robert Seña) luggage, she discovers an envelope containing annulment petition papers he filed. This sends her into tears, and before she can process it, Jessie enters the room to inform her that armed men are now outside their villa.

As they plan their escape, Jessie, Conney, and Nurse Claire are captured by Dado (Bernard Palanca) and Ian (Harvey Bautista), codenamed Tres and Kwatro. Claire attempts to run but falls from the balcony, knocking herself unconscious. The thugs assume she is dead.

Next are the Del Rosarios. Mike (Cris Villanueva) tries to put Maddie (Zia Grace) to bed, but the little girl witnesses the attack from their balcony, sending Mike into panic. Maddie cries as she runs to her mother, Minnie (Nikki Valdez), who is equally confused by the chaos. Mike scrambles to secure their room, thinking of how they might escape. He opens the ceiling just as the gunmen approach their villa, and the family climbs up to hide. Tres reports that the architect-and-engineer couple are not in their room, while the family carefully hides themselves in the bathroom ceiling. The armed men leave the villa.

Meanwhile, the captive guests are gathered at the resort pavilion. Screams and gunfire echo throughout the property.
