Revision as of 10:29, 25 July 2020

"God Gave Me You" is the Holy Wednesday episode of the 2016 edition of the annual drama anthology Eat Bulaga's Lenten Special. The episode aired on 23 March 2016 with a total runtime of 117 minutes.

Each year, the anthology replaces the noontime show's regular programming in observance of the solemnity of Holy Week. Standalone episodes of short dramas are shown from Holy Monday to Holy Wednesday, with each episode having different characters, story, and director.

It is topbilled by Maine Mendoza, Alden Richards, and Jake Ejercito.

Supporting cast includes Jose Manalo, Wally Bayola, Michael de Mesa, Ciara Sotto, Kiel Rodriguez, Tommy Peñaflor, Jon Timmons, and Justin Smaby.

The episode is directed by Bb. Joyce Bernal. Its title is based on the 1999 hit single of the same name by American country artist Bryan White, which became the theme song of Kalyeserye for the AlDub loveteam.

Plot

Dani (Maine Mendoza) is a flight attendant who is in a relationship with Matthew (Jake Ejercito), a flight captain. The couple is so busy working on different flights that they only see each other during short breaks when both of them are in Manila.

Matthew’s best friend is the carefree pilot James (Alden Richards). Because of the same busy work schedule, Dani and James have yet to meet. During a night of drinking, Matthew shares his plan with James to propose to Dani. Unfortunately, James gets too drunk and forces Matthew to cover for his shift at the airport the next day. On his way home ready for his proposal, Matthew tragically dies in a fatal car accident.

Blaming himself for Matthew's death, James meets up with his best friend's girlfriend to try to console her. But their closeness grows to attraction, especially since they start spending more time with each other in order to fulfill a list of activities that Matthew had left undone with Dani.

After completing the list, Dani discovers the truth behind James and his connection to Matthew's death. She accuses James of selfishly using her to minimize his feeling of guilt. Dani pushes James away and begins to regret her feelings for him.

Dani and James meet at the airport

James sends Dani flowers and a letter to apologize for his undesired betrayal and selfishness. In the same letter, he reveals how she taught him to live again and confesses his love for her. James prays that she can someday forgive him.

James boards a plane bound for Europe after accepting a job offer. Dani hurriedly runs toward the gate entrance to stop James from boarding, but arrives too late. The plane flies away, leaving Dani in tears.

Three years later, James returns to the Philippines for good. Dani and James see each other at the airport and finally confess their love. In the end, Dani references Kalyeserye’s main message with a voice-over reassuring that someone meant for you will come "sa tamang panahon".
