At Mami Bibir's insistence, Bambang becomes a guest star in Ada Azab Dalam Cerita. Bambang, Alan and Prima try to earn money by becoming a facial cream tester. A kuntilanak voice is heard in Mami Bibir's house


This episode provides examples of:

  • An Aesop: As Mami Bibir says, don't use makeup you don't know anything about even for money.
  • The Bet: Prima bets to Akbar that Bambang will be ready to act for AADC or else Prima and Bambang will help the crew for two days. Prima lose the bet (although it's partially the facial cream's fault).
  • Blatant Lies: Yes, Alan. Running away while screaming definitely means you are not scared and are just trying to come up with a new strategy.
  • Call-Back: Prima uses the money he gets from testing the facial cream to pay back the money he borrows from Alan and Bambang in episode 19, so now he gets back his motorcycle.
  • Comically Missing the Point:
    • Melani tells Pipin that if she goes inside of the boys' dorm and watch horror movies with them, the uproar from the neighbors would be scarier than the movies. Pipin misses the uproar point and thinks this is because their neighbors are so scary by themselves.
    • Topan tells Pipin that the boys saw an apparition that looks like Mami Bibir (she is Mami Bibir). Pipin takes it as Mami Bibir has died and became a ghost.
  • Continuity Nod:
    • A couple ones to the previous "ghost" episode, episode 5:
      • When Pipin tells Mami Bibir that there is a ghost in her house, Mami Bibir is annoyed and compares it to that time Bambang said the same thing.
      • Bambang hiding in fear behind a table reminds Alan of how Bambang ran away and hid behind a tree in that episode.
    • Bambang tells Prima to woo Clarabel instead of recording Bambang's acting practice, since he knows Prima likes Clarabel in episode 15. Prima tells Bambang that Clarabel no longer works in Ada Azab Dalam Cerita as revealed in episode 14
  • I Need to Go Iron My Dog: Alan claims he got stomachache from the sound of the kuntilanak so he has an excuse to run away. The similarly-scared Prima and Bambang say the stomachache is spreading to them.
  • Insult Backfire: When Alan says he would rather listen to Pipin rather than Melani, Melani tells Alan that he and Pipin are "11 and 12", as in similarly stupid. Alan doesn't get it and Pipin tells him that it must have mean that they are neighbors.
  • Malaproper: Bambang tells Prima that practicing his acting making him "herpes". He means nervous.
  • [Popular Saying], But...: Bambang tries to calm Mami Bibir's rant down by reminding her that "your mouth is your tiger", but screws it up and just says "your mouth is your mouth"
