I was watching some Laurel and Hardy and realized that not all the episodes have a happy ending like they end up in the prison cell, locked up at the end of the episode. So what if I wrote a comedy with a "tragic ending"? Shudders. Well I dunno how critics will think of this idea to start with because this is a very stupid denser and wackier comedy with these characters:
Patricio Bituin-Isda the 48 year old laborer, married but wants to dispose of his supposedly "deteriorating" wife for a much younger woman. He is apparently sterile or so they say. He has no sense of shame and changes his clothes in broad daylight where everyone can see him in his undies and thinks he's the most gorgeous man alive. He has an obsession for pop artists such as Marian Rivera and Rhian Ramos who neither would take a fancy on him. He is very extravagant, a gambling addict, drunkard and does a lot of activities that quickly use up his salary. His solution? Get a rich wife who's young enough to be his daughter then he could "sire a junior" if he could really... assuming that he's fertile and not sterile. He also has one unnamed lazy nephew who got cremated alive in a steel processing plant out of stupidity. In his craziness, he also thinks he can be qualified to be an actor however he's been rejected too many times!
Pancho Orje is Patricio's good for nothing lazy nephew, derived from Juan Tamad who is obviously an exaggeration written by a Filipino writer who probably wanted society to change. He obviously has a very native Filipino surname "Orje" yet his uncle Patricio who raises him to be a lazy bum (that is bringing him a sack of corn every month and dotes his alcoholism to the point he grows extremely knocked out!) that he is half-American (he likes to play with synonyms as antonyms) when he obviously isn't. He is also a lazy drunkard too and his auntie by marriage or his stupid mother even has to open up the bottle of liquor for him too. His uncle would seldom lie also that he has a rich grandfather in America when this grandfather DOES. NOT. EXIST.
Loca Tiis-Bituin-Isda is Patricio's loving wife who endures him despite his really despicable behavior. She does everything for him from laundry to ironing to even enduring that lazy nephew of his that lives with them. She is already middle aged so Patricio seeks to dump her ASAP. In actuality, she was once Patricio's cousin-in-law then she became his wife a few years after she was widowed.
Melanie Go is the youngest (and only) daughter and she is from a rich family that has a rather conservative lifestyle. For example, she wouldn't buy an Apple product if she didn't get a gift certificate or that her cellphone model isn't always updated. You might as well see her riding a motorcycle or drive a Toyota instead of a BMW. Despite her Filipino-Chinese background, her parents are open to intermarriage only if the guy is worth it like her Filipino boyfriend Juan. Patricio daydreams that they are a couple even if in the reality she is disgusted by it.
Despite the supposed stereotype that Chinese women are only for Chinese men, this guy Juan Masipag is accepted by his girlfriend Melanie's family. Patricio who is very delusional accuses him of "stealing" Melanie when he has not. He is a bank employee who works hard to break the negative stereotype of Filipino laziness. So even if he's not really rich or anybody, the family of Melanie believes he will rise up to be vice president someday. He works for a Filipino-Chinese banker who is impressed by his hard work and study habits, plus he really knows how to save for a rainy day. Due to him not being rich, he even has a more conservative lifestyle than his Filipino-Chinese girlfriend. Actually he does come from a VERY POOR family that never improves because they don't know how to save. Despite him now living in a townhouse by himself (and he really wants to marry his Chinese gf as soon as possible so he can finally settle down with a family), his parents still live in a shabby apartment while his younger sister Barbie is pressured to find a rich Tsinoy boyfriend named Jerry. He typically hates the ideas of pseudo-nationalism.
Jerry Dao Ming and Barbie Masipag- Jerry is a rich Filipino-Chinese guy who starts off as a petty snob only because he is frustrated with how his parents control his life. What went wrong was that he fell for a hardworking Filipino girl named Barbie who has a hardworking older brother and lazy parents. Unlike her parents, Barbie is pretty realistic and doesn't flaunt over Jerry's wealth. Jerry shows his nicer side to Barbie which starts them off dating except for one problem- her parents' conditional love for him and his really wicked bitchy mother! She finds it strange that while her family name is Masipag, she is born to lazy bums for parents. She and her brother share the ideas of breaking stereotypes even if it means intermarrying to somebody outside their race.
Lady Maldita (seriously didn't her parents think of a better name?!)- She's the typical bitchy mom who is VERY CONTROLLING AND MEAN (hence her name) of her son and very stereotypical Chinese mother-in-law of the past. She berates the parents of Melanie for allowing their daughter to date a non-Chinese as if its her business. She is also prone to racial biases due to the fact her late husband (who died of terminal disappointment by her unforgiving nagging so yeah she killed him) had an affair with a Filipino woman although no illegitimate child was conceived. In the household SHE is the head of it and she is a very intimidating person nonetheless. She is also very stupid evidenced by her belligerent, non-dignified behavior even if she is a rich woman. She can be displayed to be one to always backbite other people and thinks she's very intelligent and classy despite her poor grades (she's a diploma mill graduate), her horrid cooking that doesn't improve due to her inability to accept her limitations and so on. A very hateful character overall who happens to be Patricio's boss.
