Then, she plays the role of a female boxer whose heart will be torn between the man she loves and her father's fervent dream for her in the emotionally gripping episode "Boksingera" directed by Mark Reyes.

In the funny yet heartwarming episode "Beauty Queer," Iza plays the role of a consistent "thank you girl" or a losing contestant in beauty pageants who is determined to win a crown. She the resorts to joining a gay beauty contest but can she continue with her plan even if it means exchanging triumph for love? This comedic episode is directed by Dominic Zapata.

Lastly, the award-winning actress will portray the role of an assassin who wants to change her life but her profession keeps haunting her in the episode "Stella .45" directed by Rico Gutierrez.
