In last night’s jaw-dropping episode of FPJ’s Batang Quiapo, viewers were left clutching their popcorn (and pearls) as Mayor Roberto Guerrero—played with brooding intensity by Albert Martinez—revealed the plot twist of the season: he’s not just hiding a secret agenda… he’s hiding a long-haired, borta lover in his bed.
Gone is the illusion of a steamy rendezvous with his politically strategic wife, Jackie (Angel Aquino). Instead, the camera pans to reveal Mayor spooning a swole mystery man whose pecs could run for office themselves.
Apparently, Mayor’s marriage to Jackie (who’s also his father Don Gustavo’s former fling—yes, we need a family flowchart) was arranged for optics and votes. But the Mayor’s heart pumps for testosterone, not tactics.
The internet did what it does best: spiral into chaos.
Netizens were on fire:
“Kaya pala ayaw lumaban ni baste sa boxing nasa batang quiapo sya🤔”
“Roberto sa umaga, Roberta sa gabi”
“Holy smokes! Nakakaloka. Is Roberto totally gay or bisexual? What will Don Gustavo do when he finds out? Stay tuned.”
“Hmm di man lang pumili yung direktor ng mas may appeal para ipatner kay berta yung may kilig din sana, ano ba yan tanggol”
“Bebe boi come to mama🤣🤣🤣🫣🫣”
“hahhaha barbie si mayor 🤣🤣”
“Kaya pala nag momug si roberta🤣”
The revelation has sparked memes, threads, and a national debate on whether Don Gustavo will embrace the truth or launch a legacy-crushing exposé.
Will Mayor Roberto come out swinging politically and emotionally? Will Borta Boy get a character arc? Will Jackie finally stop plotting revenge in satin robes?
Find out next episode… or in tomorrow’s wild speculations. (ZIA LUNA)
