Featuring the riveting revelation scenes of the stars

The highly emotional yet relevant storyline in ABS-CBN’s “Saving Grace: The Untold Story” continues to captivate viewers on a nightly basis with its tear-jerking scenes, thanks to the effective portrayals of its powerhouse cast led by Julia Montes, Zia Grace, Jennica Garcia, Janice De Belen, and Sharon Cuneta.

As the plot intensifies in the coming weeks, we’ve listed down heart-wrenching moments that not only tugged at the heartstrings of viewers but also magnified the acting brilliance of the cast. Grab your tissues and relive these scenes:

Zia’s heartbreaking goodbye where she was praised as the next big child star

“Teacher, bakit nila ako nilagay sa sako? Bakit po nila ako tinatapon? Basura po ba ako?” – This heartbreaking line of Zia as the abused child Grace, which has now become an iconic scene in the series, was enough for viewers to dub her as the next big child star after she made viewers cry to their core as she effortlessly broke down in tears as if you can feel every ounce of her pain through the screen.

2. Julia’s emotional confrontation when she scolded Zia

While most of Julia and Zia’s scenes in the series are heartwarming, there is also a notable scene between them when they engaged in a deeply emotional confrontation that showed Julia’s character in a different light, contrary to her usual reassuring and comforting disposition towards Grace.

In it, Julia’s acting prowess was on full display as she raised her voice and scolded Grace for disobeying her, then she quickly held back her anger when she realized that Grace only had good intentions as she began to break down in tears.

3. Sharon and Julia’s face-to-face confessional

One of the most-awaited scenes in the series was the confrontation between the characters of Julia and Sharon and of course, the two did not disappoint. In the scene, Anna (Julia) bluntly expressed to Miranda (Sharon) her resentment towards her mother, unaware that Miranda is actually her biological mother, and is also living with deep regret for abandoning her as a baby.

Packed with heavy emotions, Julia delivered one painful remark after another, while Sharon perfectly depicted a scorned mother’s grief that stems from years of longing to reunite with her child.

4. Sharon and Janice’s unapologetic ‘sampalan’ face-off

Viewers rejoiced when the news broke that Sharon and Janice would star in one series together for the first time ever. So to no one’s surprise, when the two veteran actresses came face-to-face in a heated argument, we were able to witness Sharon and Janice in all of their acting glory with matching ‘sampalan’ exchanges to spice things up.

Their fiery confrontation, which has a lot to do with their involvement in a messy love triangle in the past, raised the emotional stakes of the series as Miranda revealed that she is now aware that Anna is her biological daughter whom Helena (Janice) adopted.

5. Jennica’s compelling encounter with an abusive Christian

Jennica continues to earn the ire of viewers for her portrayal as the abusive mother and kontrabida. While most of her scenes consist of her heated arguments and shouting matches, there is a particular scene that stands out because she was able to showcase her soft spot for her daughter Grace – from ‘gigil’ mode to ‘kalma’ real quick! – as netizens described the moment.

Jennica’s raw emotions were the main highlight in the scene wherein she finally had the guts, in spite of her shortcomings and reckless decisions, to stand up for Grace against Chito (Christian Bables) as she pleaded for him to stop hurting Grace for accidentally burning their stove.

6. Sam Milby’s emotional breakdown in front of Zia

In the series, Sam Milby plays a very stern journalist who rarely shows any emotion and is always laser-focused on getting the job done. However, Sam was able to pierce the hearts of viewers as he silently shed tears during his heart-to-heart conversation with Grace as he learned about all the physical abuse she was dealing with.
