Recap / Mimpi Metropolitan E 62

Go To

Alexi Project's opening ceremony is held and everyone from the dorm except for Bambang are invited. Bambang is jealous seeing Melani wearing Alexi Project's shirt.


This episode provides examples of:

  • Aesop Amnesia: Bambang forgets that he shouldn't be easily jealous again. Melani explicitly points out this trope when calling out Bambang.
  • Bait-and-Switch Comment: When Alexi is angry that Alan calls their meetings useless, Alan assures him that their meeting are useful. As useful as it's lack of result.
  • Camera Abuse: Alan screaming for mommy cracks the camera.
  • Continuity Nod:
    • When their motorcycle starts shaking, Pipin reminds Alan to be careful since they don't want anything like crashing into Wawan's motorcycle to happen again.
    • When Alexi mocks Juna not having any money, Juna reminds everyone about "that case", referring to his firing from Ada Azab dalam Cerita, which made Mami Bibir take away his The Proposal fee.
  • Distinction Without a Difference: Mami Bibir assures Melani that she's not kepo, just curious about Melani's business. She realizes the lack of difference right after saying that.
  • Exact Words: Pipin tells Alan to not ngegas (figuratively, speaks louder in anger) when Pipin brought up Wawan on their motorcycle trip. Alan promptly stop driving as ngegas also means "hit the gas". Pipin being Literal-Minded is okay with this.
  • Foreshadowing: About midway through the episode, Bambang tells Nando that their boss is watching so they should be careful or else they will get fired. At the ending, the boss watches Bambang's arguing with Melani and fires him for arguing with a customer.
  • I Want My Mommy!: Played for laughs. After Prima's motorcycle breaks down when Alan is riding it and Alan has no one to help him at the moment, Alan screams for his mother in frustration.
  • Malaproper: Alexi insists that the ribbon-cutting is an "elusive" moment that needs to be documented. Melani corrects him, the right word is exclusive.
  • Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony: The Alexi Project opening ceremony. There's a ribbon tied between the front door when the others arrive and Alexi is supposed to cut it, but Pipin doesn't get it and cut it herself. Fortunately Alan has a spare for Alexi to cut.
  • Two Lines, No Waiting: Plot A is Alexi Project's opening ceremony and Plot B is Bambang and Melani's planning a date on a theatre, which merge when Alexi decides to bring the people he invited to Bambang's workplace. The latter subplot ends poorly since Bambang gets jealous seeing Melani wearing an Alexi Project T-shirt and the date on the theatre is cancelled.

"Arguing with girlfriend makes one's heart hurts. Being fired from a job also makes one's heart feels like it's stabbed. Imagine how it feels when someone is fired after arguing with girlfriend. Feels like a stab to a wound."
