Kapuso stars Gabbi Garcia, Khalil Ramos, and Gil Cuerva reacted to some of their most intense scenes in GMA Public Affairs mystery-romance series Love You Stranger.

Aside from watching their own scenes, the three cast members shared some facts about what had happened behind the scenes when they were shooting it.

Gabbi revealed that she and her real-life boyfriend Khalil didn't talk about how they would attack some of their scenes together.

"Hindi kasi kami nag-uusap ni Khalil kung paano namin bibitawan 'yung mga linya namin, o kung paano namin aatakihin 'yung isang eksena. Nangyayari na lang siya doon, sa mismong set na," she revealed.

"Ang nangyari niyan, pumasok kami sa eksena, hindi kami nag-uusap talaga, ta's hindi rin kami nakikipag-usap kahit kanino. Si Direk [King Mark Boco] nga nagtataka, e, 'Bakit parang wala sa mood 'yung dalawa?'

"Kasi hindi kami nag-uusap talaga at all. Ang daming pinuntahan nung eksena, happy na happy kami ni Khal after i-take ito, talagang naramdaman namin 'yung emotions nung isa't isa."

One of the scenes that Khalil watched was when his character, Ben, shared a table with Tristan (Gil Cuerva), Alfie (Tonton Gutierrez), and Lorraine (Andrea Del Rosario).

Khalil, who is also a director himself said, "Isang quick trivia: alam n'yo ba na isa sa mga challenging i-shoot, sa kahit anong show, ay ang mga table scenes dahil ang daming anggulo, ang daming artista?

"At dahil medyo mahirap din siyang ilawan. So, talagang dito mate-test ang patience ng lahat pagka nagte-table scene."

Meanwhile, Gil revealed that he forgot one thing when he was doing an emotional scene with Tonton Gutierrez, who was his father in Love You Stranger.

"This scene, when Tristan finally confronts Alfie, it's actually one of my favorite scenes," he admitted.

"Though admittedly, I was really, really actually very nervous about this scene because I was so high, or mataas 'yung energy ko, nag-i-stutter na ako sa lines ko, I was rambling.

"Si Kuya Ton, he really studies his lines, sinabi niya, 'Tristan, you missed this part.' When I say this part, it was actually [Tristan] removing the music from the vinyl player."

Catch the last two episodes of Love You Stranger, 9:35 p.m. on GMA Telebabad after Bolera.
