EN: conspiracy; collusion
This is the plot of every political thriller and the reason for your trust issues. It's when your teammates secretly agree to make you the group leader so they can all chill. It’s what you suspect is happening when all the food stalls in the food court raise their prices at the same time. It's a secret group chat, but for evil.
From pag- (nominalizer) + sa- (reciprocal) + pakat (agreement, pact), with 'sapakatan' itself meaning conspiracy.
