Still reeling from meeting his celebrity crush Ivana Alawi, Luke continues to enjoy his vacation with his future wife Liv Morgan.

Liv: Lukey, since you mentioned that you have a town named after you, what do you think of us visiting there?

Luke: Poblacion Ardiente? Oh... I don't know about that

Liv recalled Luke's dark past with his evil biological family.

Liv: oh sorry Lukey, I forgot about that

Luke: oh it's okay, all I heard that the town is in peace thanks to their benevolent governor

Liv: your sister-in-law

Luke: yup, and I believe it's the perfect time for us to meet for the first time since kuya Diego's passing

Liv: I have seen pictures of its famous landmark

Luke: oh! The tall wind turbine, yeah I don't know why, but I believe the town wants to turn to a safer energy consumption using wind

Liv: or it just looks cool

Luke: I'll take the second option

Liv: let's go!

Luke: road trip!

The couple got in their car and drove to the namesake town of the Nomad.

Luke: alright, we will know that we're near by when we see the tall wind turbine

Liv: I'll keep my eyes out for a tall propeller

Luke and Liv drove along the open road while taking in the fresh air of the Philippine countryside.

Liv: it's so nice all the way out here

Luke: oh yeah, away from the loud noises of the city

After a few minutes of driving, Liv saw something in the distance.

Liv: ooh, I see a big propeller!

Luke: oh that's the turbine, we're close!

As they passed by the giant wind turbine, the two saw the main entrance gate to the town of Bagong Poblacion Ardiente.

Luke: welcome to New Poblacion Ardiente

Liv: oooh, Lukey's town

Luke chuckled as he and Liv continued to drive until they see the town in the distance.

Liv: wow it looks so nice

Luke: it now is thanks to Governor Cruz, it took a lot of work for her to rebuild the damage that was left from my so called grandfather

Liv: all that work paid off, let's go walk around

Luke: alright, oh I see a free public parking space

The Nomad parked his car in the public area and the couple got out to walk around the namesake town.

They went to the town center and saw a statue and monument that is dedicated to Luke's brother, Diego Torillo.

Liv: Lukey, is that him?

Luke: yup, that's my brother, Governor Diego Torillo

Liv: he looks like a good man

Luke: he is, and his remains are at the cemetery

Liv: you wanna pay him a visit?

Luke: yes, let's go

The couple walked to the cemetery hand in hand. They look around for the gravestone of Luke's brother.

Luke: there he is
