ROMANCE ON INSTALLMENT: ‘Owe My Love’ premieres this February 15


 

 

Ang pag-ibig, kailanman ay hindi nabibili, pero puwede ba itong utangin?

Pati ba feelings, installment na rin?

2 gives, 3 gives, o forever?

 

 

Pangarap maging nurse ni Pacencia “Sensen” Guipit (Lovi Poe), pero hindi siya nakatapos ng pag-aaral dahil kapos sila sa pera. Bilang panganay, kinailangan niyang maging raketera para sa pamilya. Lahat ay gagawin niya, “para sa ekonomiya!”

 

 

Medical frontliner naman ang cardiothoracic surgeon na si Dr. Miguel “Migs” Alcancia (Benjamin Alves). Guwapo, mayaman, at financial adviser din siya sa sikat sa online show niyang “Alcancia ng Bayan.” Lumaki siya sa poder ng pinakamamahal niyang Lolo Badong (Leo Martinez) na may middle-stage dementia kaya delikadong maiwang mag-isa.

 

 

“Ravaaaaan” naman ang mantra ni Sensen. Problema niya ang utang ng pamilya at ang haharaping operasyon ng bunso niyang kapatid na may congenital heart disease. Hindi malaman ni Sensen kung saan kukuha ng halos kalahating milyong pisong pambayad sa ospital kaya mapipilitan siyang mangutang sa “Monkey Money Keri Bills,” ang loan shark na ‘di makatarungan ang interes. Ito ang dahilan kung bakit halos lahat ng residente ng Barangay Petsa de Peligro ay baon sa utang, lalo pa’t nagka-pandemya.  Dagdag pasakit pa na nalulong ang Tatay ni Sensen sa sugal at naipatalo ang pambayad sa ospital na inutang din lang nila.

Samantala, makakalabas mula sa mansyon si Lolo Badong at si Sensen ang tutulong sa kanya. Pansamantalang kukupkupin ng pamilya Guipit si Lolo Badong, at tila ba magkakaroon sila ng magical connection ni Sensen. Mapagkakamalan niya itong asawa ng apo niyang si Migs! Kapag nasa paligid si Sensen ay tila ba himalang unti-unting nagbabalik ang alaala niya.

Nagkataon namang si Migs ang doktor ni Gwaps kaya hahantong sila sa isang kakaibang kasunduan – aalukin ni Migs na maging caregiver si Sensen ni Lolo Badong at bilang kapalit, sasagutin niya ang buong operasyon ni Gwaps. Pipirma ang dalawa sa isang kontrata tungkol sa magiging sistema ng bayaran, at sa “terms and conditions” na magpapanggap silang mag-asawa sa harap ni Lolo Badong. Isa sa mga pinaka-importanteng provision -- bawal silang ma-in love sa isa’t isa! Pero hulog-utang nga lang ba ang mangyayari o may mahuhulog sa kanila?

Makiki-riot sa kilig at saya ang nag-iisang Comedy Concert Queen, Aiai Delas Alas bilang boss at nanay-nanayan ni Sensen na si Vida.

 

 

Magkakampihan naman ang desperadang ex-girlfriend ni Migs na si Trixie (Winwyn Marquez), at ang stepmother niyang si Divina (Jackie-Lou Blanco), na gustong kamkamin ang yaman ng mga Alcancia.

 

 

Kaabang-abang din ang pagganap ni Nova Villa bilang groovy Lola ni Sensen na si Mema Eps, Ruby Rodriguez bilang loving na nanay niyang si Coring, Pekto Nacua bilang si Tatay Oryo, Buboy Villar bilang Gwaps, at Kiray Celis bilang Evs.

Kasama rin sa Owe My Love sina Ryan Eigenmann bilang lover ni Divina na si Doc Coops, Jelai Andres bilang aspiring vlogger at kakambal ni Gwaps na si Jenny Rose, Jon Gutierrez bilang driver ni Migs na si Eddie, Jason Francisco bilang bestfriend ni Sensen na si Richard, Divine Tetay bilang Juna, Terry Gian bilang Judith, at si Mahal bilang Mini Divi.

Directed by Rember Gelera and Ray Gibraltar, ang Owe My Love ay sa punong panulat ni Volta Delos Santos at mula sa orihinal na konsepto ni Joseph Conrad Rubio. Pinangungunahan ang produksyon ng Public Affairs Program Managers na sina Rubio at Karen Lumbo, at ng executive producer na si Lowell Gene Alojado.

OWE MY LOVE, ngayong February 15 na, 9:35pm sa GMA Telebabad!

 

ENGLISH VERSION

ROMANCE ON INSTALLMENT

‘Owe My Love’ premieres this February 15

They say money can’t buy love but could romance possibly grow from a business deal? A sizable debt, a no-nonsense contract and a seemingly harmless white lie--these are the seeds of an unusual love story of two strangers from divergent worlds in the latest romantic-comedy series from GMA Public Affairs.

From the team behind the top-rating and well-loved primetime series Naku, Boss Ko!, Inday Will Always Love You, TODA One I Love, and One of the Baes comes “Owe My Love,” a timely show about the value of true love airing on GMA Telebabad the day after Valentines, on February 15.

Headlined by Kapuso Premier Drama actress Lovi Poe and sought-after Kapuso leading man Benjamin Alves, “Owe My Love” follows the story of Pacencia “Sensen” Guipit (Lovi) and Dr. Miguel “Migs” Alcancia (Benjamin) whose lives intertwine in a world of debt, near-death, and dogged dedication to family.

Sensen, a nursing school undergrad, quits her studies and takes on several jobs to keep her family’s finances afloat. Selfless almost to a fault, she is driven by her positive attitude that with hard work, she will someday reap her much-deserved rewards. Always on the go because opportunities are not to be wasted, she has little time for herself much less for romance.

Meanwhile, Doc Migs is a heart surgeon at Centimos Medical Hospital. He is also a financial adviser on an online show called “Alcancia ng Bayan.” Migs grew up in a broken family and was raised mostly by his beloved Lolo Badong (Leo Martinez) who taught him the value of hard work and saving money. But now that Lolo Badong suffers from middle-stage dementia, Migs is desperate to delay the effects of the disease and of forever losing his only family.

Fate and a series of unfortunate events - from paying off her father’s gambling losses to shouldering her youngest sibling’s hospital bills - lead Sensen to become financially indebted to Migs. So they forge a deal where Sensen pays off her loan by working as Lolo Badong’s caregiver because for some inexplicable reason, Sensen’s presence delays the symptoms of Lolo Badong’s dementia. It’s not as simple as it seems however because Lolo Badong is convinced that Sensen and Migs are married. To keep his grandfather happy, Migs asks Sensen to keep up the pretense while she works off her debt.

But what happens when their pretend marriage develops into a real romance? Will debt keep Sensen and Doc Migs together or will it tear them apart?

Owe My Love features an impressive supporting cast which includes the inimitable Comedy Concert Queen herself Aiai Delas Alas as Vida Morales, Sensen’s boss-cum-second mother; Winwyn Marquez as Trixie Gibs, the clingy ex-girlfriend of Migs and Ms. Jackie Lou Blanco as Divina, Migs’ greedy stepmother. The program also features a rich ensemble of veteran comedians whose antics will leave the audience in stitches, led by Nova Villa as Mema Eps, Ruby Rodriguez as Nanay Coring, Pekto Nacua as Tatay Oryo, Buboy Villar as Gwaps, and Kiray Celis as Evs.

Rounding the cast are Ryan Eigenmann as Doc Coops, Jelai Andres as Jenny Rose Guipit, Jon Gutierrez as Eddie Ganondin, Jason Francisco as Richard Purr, Divine Tetay as Juna, Terry Gian as Judith, and Mahal as Mini Divi.

Owe My Love is directed by Rember Gelera and Ray Gibraltar, and penned by head writer Volta Delos Santos, based on the original concept from Joseph Conrad Rubio. The Public Affairs production team was led by Program Managers Rubio and Karen Lumbo, with Executive Producer Lowell Alojado.
