The fourth season of Ang Probinsyano, a Philippine action drama television series, premiered on ABS-CBN's Primetime Bida evening block and worldwide on The Filipino Channel. The season ran from November 8, 2017, to March 14, 2018, airing a total of 91 episodes. The series stars Coco Martin as SPO2 Ricardo Dalisay, together with an ensemble cast consisting of Susan Roces, Jaime Fabregas, Angel Aquino, John Arcilla, Jhong Hilario, John Prats, Sid Lucero, Mitch Valdes, Yassi Pressman, Eddie Garcia, and Lito Lapid.
The fourth season of Ang Probinsyano deals with the looming mid-year elections in the Philippines, where Senator Mateo F. De Silva and Director Renato Hipolito are both jockeying for the top spot at the polls in order to secure the Senate Presidency and parlay such victory into a career as the President of the Philippines. Both De Silva and Hipolito relentlessly hunt down Cardo and the remnants of Pulang Araw in order to appeal to the voters. De Silva funds his campaign with the aid of his newfound ally, Don Emilio Syquia, through their drug-trading business. With the remaining members of Pulang Araw and his allies in prison, Cardo forms the vigilante and revolutionary far-left group Vendetta to combat corruption, injustice, oppression, and despotism in the Philippines. However, with the elections drawing nearer, both De Silva and Hipolito continue to malign the name of Vendetta through Luis "Buwaya" Mangubat and Homer "Alakdan" Adlawan's Kamandag, respectively, each performing acts of terrorism that are blamed on Vendetta. Elsewhere, Cardo's marriage to Alyana is also put to the test as she is pursued by her new boss, Marco Cabrera.
Cardo and the rest of the Pulang Araw move to Manila with the help of Engelbert "Bert" Moreno, alias "Daga" (Rico J. Puno) (transl. Rat), a former Pulang Araw member, and his family. Bert's daughter, Regine (Angeline Quinto), resents Cardo as she recognizes the latter as the CIDG officer who killed her brother Banjo (Eric Fructuoso).
In order to make Renato Hipolito pay for his brutalities and the betrayal of his formerly associated group, Pulang Araw, Romulo, Cardo, and Anton attempt to investigate his past and unmask the real motive behind the mass bombing incidents in Manila. Now that the tables have turned, Romulo confronts Renato for his desertion and treachery, blaming him for being the cause of the deaths of his wife, daughter, and grandson, as well as the deaths of his comrades. While he attempts to kill Renato, Cardo stops him, leaving Renato wounded and alive.
At this point, Senator De Silva is revealed as a corrupt government official and drug dealer who drew funding from Don Emilio in exchange for securing the reversal of the latter's conviction and a stake in De Silva's drug empire. De Silva subsequently joins the hunt for Pulang Araw to catch up to Hipolito in the ratings, both eyeing the top spot to secure the nomination for the Senate of the Philippines. Bert is later killed by Sen. De Silva's henchmen after the latter refused to reveal Pulang Araw's whereabouts. His family is rescued by Pulang Araw and finally discovers Senator De Silva's involvement in the assault on Bert's family. Regine and her brother Bruno (Janno Gibbs) move in with Pulang Araw.
After visiting his dead son's grave, Don Emilio and his henchmen kidnap and torture Cardo on an isolated island called Isla Muerte (transl. Death Island). Ramil and some of Cardo's inmate friends learn of Cardo's predicament and devise a plan to rescue him. They cause a distraction in the Bilibid Prison so they can escape. Arriving at the island, they successfully rescue Cardo, but two companions, Julian (Julio Diaz) and Gener (Jeric Raval), are killed; Julian was fatally shot by De Silva's men, while Gener sacrificed himself to give Cardo, Jimboy, and Ramil time by detonating the bombs they planted on the island. In the ensuing gunfight, Cardo shoots and kills BuCor Director Ladronio (King Gutierrez), one of the people who helped Don Emilio torture him.
With the remnants of Cardo's allies from prison and the surviving members of Pulang Araw, Cardo forms the vigilante group and the revolutionary armed movement Vendetta to wipe out corrupt and oppressive elements from the country.
Vendetta starts their plan to annihilate Don Emilio's and Sen. De Silva's drug laboratories. They successfully end the operations of two drug laboratories, leaving no one alive. However, Bruno is then captured by two corrupt policemen, Gapuz (Raph Fernandez) and Pantig (Pocholo Barretto), with Vendetta failing to rescue him, leading to his death. His mother, Dulce (Irma Adlawan), blames Vendetta for his death, and she, along with Regine, decided to move to their province for their safety.
Mayor Jethro Garrido (Bernard Palanca) has caught the attention of Vendetta for selling drugs to college students, some of whom are also selling drugs from him. Mayor Garrido has set up a concert to motivate students to stop taking drugs. Vendetta found out about the planned concert, so Cardo orchestrated a plan for them to get in. They disguised themselves as a band participating in the concert, named the Vengaboys. They won the battle of the bands and were congratulated by Mayor Garrido. Unbeknownst to him, they are a vigilante group who plan on taking him down. After handing them drugs, Cardo confronted Mayor Garrido, provoking a shootout. Cardo later shot Mayor Garrido to death.
However, after successfully taking down the drug operations, Cardo realized his shortcomings towards his wife. He wasn't aware that Alyana was almost kidnapped by Emilio and de Silva's men at her office. When Alyana was about to be kidnapped, her office boss, Marco Cabrera (J. C. Santos), came just in time to save her from the kidnappers. Alyana then broke up with Cardo after she blamed him for neglecting her and not being able to rescue her. However, Cardo is still determined to fix his marriage with Alyana.
General Diana Olegario (Angel Aquino) wanted to talk and meet Cardo at the bridge. Unbeknownst to her, Major Catindig found out about the meeting but was not aware that it was Cardo. On the bridge, when Diana was looking for Cardo, Manolo and his men found her first and cornered her. They successfully shot Diana, but she managed to escape by jumping to the river below. Cardo, who was hiding in his vehicle, then saved Diana and brought her to Vendetta's hideout. Cardo urges Diana to make her realize the real situations and social ills affecting the country itself. Later on, Cardo's group and Diana herself both discussed and talked about the principles and beliefs they fought for. Romulo tells Diana about the fight of his movement for their rights when they were in the mountains and laments to her how selfish, greedy, and wicked the people in power were. Years have passed, yet they still do not listen to their pleas. Ramil also confessed to her that he was a criminal who robbed banks, but by joining the newly armed vigilante group, he gets to purge and eradicate corrupt, crooked, and criminal elements from society.
After General Olegario was well rested, she wanted to go back to the NMIG. As she came back to her house, Diana was ambushed by Cantindig's men. Vendetta followed her beforehand and came to rescue her. When they took her back to their base, she decided to join Vendetta, seeing an opportunity to get justice for her son.
Vendetta finally puts a stop to Don Emilio and Sen. De Silva's operations after they foiled the terror plot of Don Emilio, De Silva, and Buwaya's plan to detonate bombs during the Panagbenga Festival, killing De Silva and also "killing" Don Emilio. After the diversion was taken care of, they set their sights next on Director Hipolito and Kamandag. Meanwhile, Alyana gives in to Marco's advances and starts a relationship with him, much to the chagrin of the latter's aunt, Menchu Versoza (Matet De Leon).
