Status: It's Complicated Page #9

Synopsis: Manny and Jerry have been best buddies and housemates for a long time. Manny believes that love, just like sex, should be shared with as many partners as possible. On the other hand, Jerry thinks that he should wait it out for that special someone. They decide to swap lifestyles just to prove whose theory is right.

Cheers!

Bottoms up!

Manny!

You know what, Jerry? I'm nervous.

What if when we get there,

he's doing something obscene!

If that will happen,

I'll throw your car into his face!

I'll do that!

Please don't.

Dennis, be a good boy.

Get some hot water! Hurry!

Okay, boss!

- He's also drunk?

- No way, I can do it.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Wait! Wait!

Wait! Wait! Wait!

Wait!

Wait!

This is not included on my sex research.

I'm not coming in with you, okay?

It's between the two of you now.

He'll be happy that you're here,

anyway, Dennis is now asleep.

Maybe it's better if you come with me,

so there'll be a witness.

Since I'm about to give him a sack of sermons.

Then, let's record it on video

and let him sign with his blood.

Video scandal?

Never mind!

Even St. Peter lied three times.

While Manny did it three million times!

Well, anyways, see for yourself.

He could be hanging himself in there.

If I know, he's not hanging himself

inside but on someone else's.

Dennis!

What are you doing?!

Where's Manny?

He went out to buy some siopao!

He's buying siopao?

But his motorcycles outside.

Maybe, he took a tricycle ride.

Why are you carrying a basin of water?

Now, I'm wet.

I'm going to wash clothes!

That boy's taking too long.

Maybe he's chatting with somebody.

Dennis!

Dennis! Where's the hot waterl?

What's happening there?!

- Come up here!

- You're going to wash clothes? Who's that?

That? It's Manny's new CD!

New CD!? What are you thinking, Dennis?!

It's calling your name!

There's something fishy going on here.

Where is Manny's room?

There!

The kitchen?!

Dennis!

Dennis!

It's upstairs! Manny's room is upstairs!

Manny!

- Manny!

- Ate Rina, not there!

Manny!

Manny!

I knew it!

And who's that?

Maybe a member of Singles for Christ.

You're in trouble!

Jerry!

I knew it! Your dear friend

is full of foolishness!

What is it this time?

He's with a woman inside his room!

- And they're not just playing Scrabble!

- Manny's with a woman inside?

Manny doesn't bring woman in here.

Maybe outside!

It even got worse!

The girl is an Amazon woman!

Why did he do that?!

Because he doesn't know I'm coming!

So Jerry please! Please!

Don't ever convince me about your friend!

Because I've been wanting to cry!

I'm really going to cry! I'm going to cry!

I'm really going to cry!

As in, I'm about to cry! I'm going to cry!

I'm really going to cry! I'm going to cry!

I'm going to cry!

That's enough.

Well, well, well.

Good evening.

Wait, I know what you're thinking.

I'm here for Manny anyway. Not you.

What?! Why not me?

Jerry, it looks like you have a date.

Maybe I'm interrupting you.

Oh, no.

That girl too?! Your friend's unbelievable!

He's not contented with only one chick,

but he wants two of them on the bed!

What are you talking about?!

That's my girlfriend!

She's your girlfriend?

What is that?! His FuBu?!

What a great relationship you have!

You share everything!

Amazing!

I've had enough! I give up!

I know what you're thinking.

But you're wrong.

You're just in shock!

And who won't be in shock?!

I saw Manny with a woman in his room

and they are both in bed!

Caught in the act?

All I know is, there's a woman all over

Manny's body! All over his body!

Maybe they're just practicing a new dance?

A new dance? Twerking?!

Or maybe, a new swimming stroke!

What stroke? Breast stroke?

You know what? I don't believe it.

We should make sure of it!

Fine! Go back! Go back!

I want to face that man!

Okay! Here we go again!

Rina!

Rina!

- Rina!

- Dennis! Dennis! Come here!

Get some hot water, okay? Now!

Go! Go, now, go!

Rina!

You're so heavy!

Slowly.

Come on!

Dennis, what are you doing?!

He's in trouble again!

Oh, hi!

Oh, hi!

Hi!

I'm getting high of rage!

- Where's Mannyl?

-It's my birthday today. If you want to know.

Happy birthday! I said, where's Manny?

I think you already got your

birthday gift from him!

And maybe, the other woman

is with him at this moment.

You can see for yourself!

But, just relax. You think too much!

Thanks for the heads up!

And happy birthday, ma'am.

Ma'am? But we're about the same age.

What do you want me to think?

Manny's girls don't even take shifts!

They don't even take breaks

in between rounds!

You won't run out of it.

- Of what?

- Of suspicions!

Manny! Manny!

Manny!

Hello!

This is too much! Too much!

- What now?!

-It's getting worse!

Tell Dennis to get the hot water fast.

Why do you seemed to be the one mad now?

Manuel and I will get into a confrontation!

I'll just take you home!

He hooked up with all of my girlfriends!

He has no mercy! She's near her menopause

stage and yet he still screwed her!

Hey! If you're getting into a confrontation,

I'll go into a confrontation too!

Whatever you like!

But, with whom?

With your girlfriends, of course!

- What does it mean?

- Go back!

Dennis, what is that for again?

For Manny's room. It keeps falling!

Hey! Both of you!

We're not done yet!

Let's go.

She seems so hot-headed!

That's how old woman is!

Manny!

Manny!

Manny!

Where --

Manny!

- Kuya Manny! Kuya Manny!

- Help me! Hurry!

Get a face towel in the bathroom, go!

What happened to you?

This is nothing.

I can manage this.

Oh my!

This is crazy!

Oh, Lord.

Crazy?

You took two women home,

then you thought it's crazy?

You might be thinking dirty!

Don't speak! If you have problems with those

two women downstairs, I'll take care of it!

What else can I do but fight for you!

Whether you like it or not,

I'll change you into a better man.

No, you don't know the whole story.

Dennis and I were drinking, then,

Marian came. After that --

Do you know Jiu Jitsu?

No.

Muay Thai?

No. How about you?

All I do is about sex research,

not martial arts, marital ans.

But, I know boxing.

Really? How?

- Oh, here. Job straight.

- Job straight.

Then, hook!

- Jab straight, hook!

- Jab straight, hook!

'Uppercut.

'Uppercut.

- Jab straight, hook.

- Go on with your punches! Yes!

One, two!

Jab straight, hook, uppercut!

- Jab straight, hook.

Uppercut.

- Jab straight, hook, uppercut!

- Jab straight, hook, uppercut!

- Jab straight, hook.

- Jab straight, hook.

Just a minute.

Happy Birthday.

What a comedy, isn't it?

Kind of.

I've been trying to tell you

but you don't listen.

I'm sorry. I'm very impulsive.

- I'm only 22.

- I understand. We're the same.

I'm only 24.

Me? I'm hungry.

The cake's good for you.

Me too, I'm hungry.

Rina made me nervous.

I thought you'll butcher us!

It's because everything's so crazy!

Manny tried to tell me

what happened but he's gibberish!

My birthday seems exciting somehow, right?

Why isn't there a candle?

How many should it be?

The chicken's good! Why don't you try it?

How's your Manny?

His knees are still wobbly.

That's not our fault!

Boys are such a headache!

They're so hard to understand!

But once you understand them,

everything seems fine.

- So, you understand him now?
