3.1K ViewsOct 18, 2022

Background: 1.) The "Tinola Scene" was originally in the novel. Padre Damaso felt insulted when his tinola only contains chicken wings and neck while Ibarra got the chicken breast. This is where Damaso started harboring grudge against Ibarrra. Klay tried to prevent it from happening, only to find out that she was the reason behind the infamous Tinola scene. 2.) During the Spanish colonial period, half-chinese filipinos (Mestiza de Sangley) have lower status than indios (native filipinos). They are usually servants and not baptized by the roman catholic church hence, the discrimination is too strong that even their cemetery is separated from the Illustrados. Klay was called a chinese mestizo because of her facial features and fair skin.
