YouTube title: "Dinner Romantis Bambang dan Melani" (lit. "Romantic Dinner of Bambang and Melani")
Zulu title: "Dinner Romantis Melanie & Bambang" (lit. "Romantic Dinner of Melanie & Bambang")

Bambang's use of MSG in his egg roll causes controversy and forces him to stop selling them. Alan try to make a love confession to Pipin again with Alexi and Topan's help. Juna cannot be found when he is supposed to shoot his scene in Ada Azab Dalam Cerita.

This episode provides examples of:

  • Call-Back: The bonus money for Melani and her friends that was mentioned in episode 49 is available now. Melani uses the money to treat Bambang to dinner in a cafe where he finds a job vacancy.
  • Daydream Surprise: Alan has prepared a surprise love confession for Pipin in Alexi's office. Then we see Pipin entering the office and accepting Alan's love, but it turns out Alan's just imagining it.
  • Expository Pronoun: Discussed. A waiter believes Melani's use of gue and lo when she's with Bambang means they're just friends.
  • Hypocrite: A mild one. Bambang points out that Melani told him to not waste his money buying a bag for her and now she is treating him to dinner in an expensive cafe. Melani justifies it as a one-time thing to do when she has more money than usual. Bambang doesn't really buy it, but decides to shrug it off.
  • I Can Explain: Alan assures Pipin that he can explain about the spooky candles on Alexi's office and his lie about being sick once they get back to Alexi's office (he wants to make a love confession). Pipin refuses to go there and Alan doesn't bother to explain after that.
  • Irrevocable Message: In the ending, Prima writes a text message for Bambang, reporting that a "lioness" (Mami Bibir) is tearing off Juna for getting fired from AADC, but ends up sending it to Mami Bibir instead. The episode ends as Mami Bibir approaches her phone.
  • The Nth Doctor: In-universe. When Akbar fires Juna yet keeps his character Uta, Akbar tells him that it will be explained in AADC that Uta has a Magic Plastic Surgery after an accident to explain the change.
  • Pet the Dog: Alexi is geniunely supportive of Alan and Pipin's future relationship—being the one who gives Alan the plan and flowers—and is disappointed that it doesn't happen.
  • Say My Name: After Akbar tells Prima that Juna is fired from AADC and to get out from the set, Prima yells Juna's full name. Turns out screaming on set only angers Akbar further.
  • Tempting Fate: Early in the episode, Juna declares that he doesn't want his career to end yet and Mami Bibir tells Melani that Juna will be okay working without her. By the end of the episode, Juna lost his job in AADC.
