Prima is irritated that Clarabel ignores him in favor of Bambang, who is suddenly becoming famous. Running a laundry business turns out to be harder than Bambang and Alan thought.


Tropes:

  • Brutal Honesty: Bambang and Alan tells Prima that an unattractive guy like him shouldn't be hoping to get the attention of a celebrity like Clarabel.
  • Continuity Nod: Prima tries to remind Clarabel of things he did near her in the fourth and sixth episode. Clarabel only remembers him as the extra who gets blacklisted from the latter episode.
  • Gilligan Cut: Downplayed (as it is not a Smash Cut). Bambang, Alan and Prima declare that they won't give up on their laundry business even though they haven't break even. One transition later, Bambang, Alan and Prima are on the verge of giving up since they have exactly zero customer.
  • Is This Thing Still On?: Subverted. When the chef angrily tells Clarabel he still wants to make a kue cubit with salted egg, Clarabel points out that the camera is on. The chef doesn't care (the show is pre-recorded after all) and continue his rant.
  • Prophetic Names: When Prima starts acting offended because of Bambang and Alan's Brutal Honesty, Bambang suspects that this trope is happening as their laundry is named "Baper" (Indonesian for "easily upset"). In the ending, Alan also blames the name for making their customers going away after one bad washing.
  • She Is Not My Girlfriend: Bambang and Melani deny being a couple when Irma asks about it since they were talking together when Irma comes to the laundry. Not that Irma believes Bambang is a good fit for Melani.
  • Shrunk in the Wash: The fate of one of Topan's shirt after being washed by Alan.
  • Team Hand-Stack: After noticing that they haven't make much money with their laundry bussiness, Bambang, Alan and Prima put their fist-pumped hand on top of the other as they declare their decision to continue.
