Cardo came to the rescue for his wife and had a face-off with his mortal enemy.
In the episode aired on May 24, Joaquin finally met his death when Cardo stabbed him on the neck using a knife.

“You will forever be a part of my life. I will miss you Joaquin. You’ve done so much to me.. i love you Joaqs. Till we meet again [cry emoji] #JoaquinTuazon #TeamPromdi FOREVER!”
