Selos night sa Manaloto household! With a very special guest in the mix, the wives were on high alert, and the jokes wrote themselves.
Who guested on Pepito Manaloto?
GMA's episode notes list Jennylyn Mercado as a guest, playing Maita, along with Ariel Villasanta, Robb Guinto, David Shouder and Jane Mounter. Jennylyn had already been teased by GMA as someone coming to stir things up, and she did.
Why were Elsa and Janice jealous?
According to GMA's clips, Elsa, played by Manilyn Reynes, and Janice, played by Chariz Solomon, could not help getting jealous of Maita because of how Pepito, played by Michael V., and Patrick, played by John Feir, were acting. One clip is all about Elsa's sharp stare, since she was clearly not amused by Pepito's moves around Maita. Another clip teases that the two husbands had some serious suyuan to do to get back on their wives' good side.
What were Maita's mixed signals?
Poor Maita. GMA's clip says she was already feeling lucky in love, only to realize that the banter from Ox, played by David Shouder, was not aimed at her after all. Na-biktima ng mixed signals, as GMA put it. Relatable, di ba?
What was Clarissa's problem?
In a side story, Clarissa, played by Angel Satsumi, had no choice but to go along with whatever her business partner Macy, played by Jane Mounter, wanted, instead of Macy actually helping with their business. GMA's clip calls Macy the "bwisit" business partner, which says it all.
Why was this episode fun?
Pepito Manaloto works best when small misunderstandings snowball, and a guest like Maita gave everyone a reason to overreact. Classic Saturday night comedy for the whole family.
