Who is Bana? Shocking Girl-Love Between Mary Joy and Mutya Rocks ‘What Lies Beneath’

Weeks of speculation finally come to an explosive end in ” What Lies Beneath” as the identity of “Bana”—the mysterious figure mentioned in Louisa’s (Mutya Orquia) heartbreaking love letter—is finally revealed, unlocking a powerful and unexpected girl-love (GL) storyline that reshapes the search for her killer.

In a revelation that left viewers stunned, Liezel (Mary Joy Apostol) confesses that she is Bana—the woman Louisa loved. The truth comes out following a heated confrontation involving Beth (Charlie Dizon), Erica (Kaila Estrada), Mel (Sue Ramirez), Alice (Janella Salvador), Angelo (Marlo Mortel), and Ryan (Yves Flores)—after questions arise over how Louisa’s letter ended up in Angelo’s possession.

Liezel’s confession pulls back the curtain on a secret romance marked by fear, sacrifice, and forbidden love. She opens up about her relationship with Louisa and their dream of leaving Amurao together after graduation—plans tragically derailed when her father, Pastor Samuel, discovered their relationship. His chilling ultimatum—to end things or risk Louisa’s life—casts a dark shadow over the events leading to Louisa’s death.

As the emotional weight of the GL reveal reverberates, the mystery deepens.

Are the MABELs finally closing in on the real killer?

Is Angelo hiding something—or does Pastor Samuel’s role go far beyond what anyone imagined?
