* ButtMonkey: Even if he is the one with the most stable job compared to Bambang and Alan, that job also causes him to get humiliating roles, such as a corpse falling from a shoulder-high bier. He also gets their typical money problems, such as being forced to run to a filming location by pure bad luck in episode 8.


Added DiffLines:

* ButtMonkey: While he is introduced as a very lucky guy, his fortune starts dropping ever since the main trio finds out about his real name, leading him to become a recurring target of humiliation by them or by the plot, such as being forced to act while barefooted on a hot day or getting stuck in a ''pocong'' costume alone. Since he is a jerk when things goes his way, nobody minds.

Now, Alan is Bambang's first and best friend and falls in love with a female newcomer, Pipin.
