YouTube title: "Week Anniversary Bambang dan Melani" (lit. "Bambang and Melani's Week Anniversary")

Good news, Bambang has met Mbak Zaenab; bad news, his father doesn't believe him. Setting that problem aside for now, Bambang celebrates the week anniversary of his relationship with Melani. Unknown to both of them, Pipin sees them holding hands.

Meanwhile, Alan is fired from The Proposal for leaving without permission last episode. While helping out Pipin, Alan is reunited with Nancy, who wants to say goodbye before moving overseas. Coincidentally, Alexi wants to buy a house for his new office and decides to buy Nancy's now-unused house. To his chargin, Alan becomes Alexi's new assistant.

Juna is really tired right now, having to film both in The Proposal and Ada Azab Dalam Cerita. Mami Bibir assigns Prima to take care of Juna, but the best he can do is dragging a sleepy Juna around and they end up being late for both show.


This episode provides examples of:

  • Bait-and-Switch Comment: Mami Bibir playfully uses this when talking to Melani before Melani goes to work.
    Melani: Is it okay if I leave you alone?
    Mami Bibir: Don't... hestitate.
  • Big "WHAT?!": Alexi and Prima's reaction when they find out that the "million-rupiah" house they are offered is actually a cheap shack.
  • Blame Game: When Prima and Juna arrive late at The Proposal filming, Juna blames Prima for driving slowly, then Prima blames Juna for sleeping during the journey, so he couldn't drive any faster. The crew tells them to shut up and start preparing for the take.
  • Breaking the Fourth Wall:
    • During Nancy—Saodah's confrontation, Alan looks at the camera and says that if this is a soap opera, they would be pulling each other hair.
    • After seeing Alexi refuses Nancy one-million price in favor of two-million one, Alan tells the audience (particularly, mothers) to give their children milk instead of accumulator water so that they won't become like Alexi.
  • Got Volunteered: Near the ending, Alexi has acquired a house for his new office and needs someone to renovate it. Mami Bibir volunteers Alan, making him Alexi's assistant for the rest of the series.
  • Malaproper: Words Alexi said wrong today: "assumption" in place of "ammunition", "sorokan" instead of "sogokan" (bribe), and "important" instead of "competent".
  • Sarcastic Confession: Alan sees Bambang looking at a calendar and his wallet, so Alan snarks that Bambang looks like someone in a relationship. Bambang replies with a Blunt "Yes", knowing from the previous episode that Alan wouldn't believe it.
  • Shout-Out: Alexi assumes that Akbar miss him and gives him some food because "longing is hard", like Dilan said.

"Holding hands doesn't equal relationship, right? But they say, when people are holding hands, they will be holding hearts. Wait, is that right? The thing is, Pipin is unsure about what Pipin is seeing."
