Inul & Adam: The Series (2024) s01e01 Episode Script

1
Hey.
Let's go!
-Now?
-No, tomorrow!
Come on, the driver's waiting.
It's Jakarta.
Soon, you'll be famous.
Come on.
-Ladies and gentlemen!
-Let's go!
-Inul is going to be a singer!
-Inul's going to Jakarta!
The locals have to continuously
give their support to Inul.
Inul! Inul!
Yes. So that she can be a famous singer.
Inul!
INUL, DONT FORGET YOUR HOMETOWN
Yes, Mr. Village Head.
Wait!
Be quiet!
We've got an official trying to talk.
Oh, yeah.
Go on, sir.
Praise be to God, this morning
we gather together here
to bid farewell to our dangdut singer.
Inul is going to Jakarta.
THIS LAND IS IN DISPUTE
Miss Inul.
Miss Inul!
We've arrived!
-We're here?
-This is the place.
As per the destination point.
What about you, mister?
Where's your destination?
It's two cities back.
This lady here
fell asleep on my shoulder though.
I felt too bad to wake her, sorry.
THIS LAND IS IN DISPUTE
-Going to work?
-Yeah.
Well, Dad,
my friends and I want to watch
the Popcorn concert.
Can I?
Hold on.
Do you need my permission
to watch a concert or to buy popcorn?
Which one?
Oh, my handsome brother-in-law
The famous Mr. Adam,
the friend of Hotman Paris!
You don't know Popcorn?
Popcorn is
corn heated microwave until it goes pop!
You can find it in theaters.
Not that type of popcorn, Daddy.
My Popcorn is a K-pop star.
Yeesh! All right, it's K-pop.
Do you see my nose as a meatball,
poking it like that?
-Do you think it's a lollipop?
-Hush!
So what do you say, Dad? I can go, right?
Because you went to the Rolling Stone
concert last month, right?
And
my point is,
I think you need to have a priority scale.
In six months, you'll have
your school's field trip to Bali.
So, you should know better
which is more important.
A field trip or having fun?
You're so not cool.
What's with the crowd here?
Some political party distributing shirts?
What's wrong with you, miss?
I'm looking for a producer.
Oh, I recognize this.
Looks like you were cheated, weren't you?
I'll tell you what.
It happens all the time here.
I think around 20 people were scammed.
-Really?
-Yeah. It's bad.
So, be careful.
People couldn't care less
about sin anymore nowadays.
My gosh!
Anyway.
I think your life's going to be
drifting aimlessly.
Okay, here's what we'll do.
If you need anything, just contact me.
Call me if you need anything.
Call that number.
Call me, instead of firefighters, okay?
Wait.
What now?
Are you really a producer?
You don't believe me?
Just so you know, even cats kiss my hand
when they pass me by.
Believe me, I'm a producer.
You know Elvy Sukaesih?
Happy Asmara?
-Ayu Ting Ting?
-Yes.
Who do you think
the producer of those guys is?
You?
No, I'm just asking you.
But you asked me instead.
Just don't worry, okay?
Anyway.
Can you sing?
-Sure. I'm good at it.
-Okay. Let me hear it.
Hey, people
Ladies and gentlemen
Everyone gathered here
Some people say
Dangdut without dancing
Is like veggies without salt
No flavor, no taste
Excellent!
You have a high voice.
How many meters high? Or is it hectares?
-Hectares are for measuring land.
-What's it called then?
-Pitch.
-Right! Pitch!
Pardon me, but I just love to joke.
Okay, I'll tell you what.
I'm going to give you 50 million.
You just have to add 25 million to it.
Listen, I don't mean anything by it.
It's just an investment for me.
Because I care a lot
about your beautiful voice.
Your crisp and pretty voice.
You don't need to worry about it, okay?
Don't ask to live in a condo
or go clubbing either.
It'll be a hassle for me
because you have so little money
-and I even provided you with that.
-Okay.
So, just pray hard until the sky trembles.
But I want an agreement made
in a law office.
-I mean the contract.
-Yeah. Come on.
Afternoon, Ari.
Afternoon, Mas Adam.
We're going to several places today.
First, to Mr. Rampunjadi's place.
I also have a meeting with a musician.
Ahmad Dodi.
He's got a case that needs my help.
Oh, one more thing.
We may not finish all the activities
until late at night
because there's another client
from Bandung I need to meet.
Okay.
-You got all that?
-Sure.
-Excuse me.
-Yes?
Could you repeat that?
Never mind, just drive.
I'll tell you on the way.
So complicated.
Come on.
They're inside. Just come in.
They're here?
-Yes. The room's over there.
-All right.
Greetings!
Balki, Balki, Balki.
I told you, Balki.
If anyone asks for donations like this,
they can do it from outside the fence.
Don't let them come inside.
Besides, I donated yesterday.
Do you want me to donate every day?
Do you think I'm
the Minister of Social Affairs?
This guy rejects money, huh?
He thinks we're begging for donations.
I can buy your entire office floor.
I can buy your office,
even if it has three floors.
I think this is the wrong place.
-Let's go.
-All right, let's find another law office.
Okay.
Hey, mister! Ma'am, wait!
Balki, Balki!
How could you? These are honorable guests!
Why don't you welcome them?
You let them wait outside.
What if they catch cold?
I apologize, sir and ma'am.
Right. Instant change
at the sound of "money"!
Those blinking eyes of yours
are like ambulance lights.
-I'm done with you.
-Wait, sir!
Balki, Balki!
Serve food and drinks
for our guests of honor.
I'm not thirsty.
I already drank three wells.
Now, can I come in or not?
Sure. Please, come in.
Forget about the food and drinks.
That'll cost a lot.
Okay. Come here.
-You serious?
-Of course!
-Sure.
-I'm sorry, ma'am.
You got a cool face
but your hearing doesn't match it.
Please come into my office.
This is my law office. Please.
Please, have a seat, sir.
This is a legitimate law office.
Dodi and Partner. Yes?
All right, miss.
How I can help with your legal case?
Well
I'd like to make a working contract
with this gentleman here.
Okay, no problem.
As a famous lawyer,
that's exactly what I do.
Tidying up already?
Hey, why are you cleaning the desk?
Sorry. She's just like that.
Yesterday, she cleaned a person
with a messed up face.
-Thank God I'm not messy.
-Yeah.
It just annoys me
when I see a mess like this.
It makes my hands itchy.
I see. Okay.
So, what kind of agreement
would you like to make?
An employment contract.
Yes, a contract.
Relax, slow down.
I have an employee, Adam.
He'll prepare the papers, okay?
Why should I wait for Adam?
Is he going to do
the Maghrib prayer "adam"?
-You mean "adzan"!
-Yes, exactly.
Why wait for him?
I am a lawyer.
I have an employee who does the typing
as I instruct him, okay?
Miss, by the way,
since you've neatened these up,
can you please put them
inside the cabinet?
You're willing, right?
Sure. I can do that willingly.
Hey, she might be willing,
but I feel pity for her.
She is my star, you know.
And you're giving her orders?
But she's got no problem with it.
Who the heck is this guy anyway?
He's so fussy!
He's my producer!
-Your producer?
-Yes!
You don't believe that?
I'm a producer, not a protein.
I thought you were a clown.
Ari.
Still want to be like me?
Of course.
You're my idol.
Excuse me.
Can I ask you something?
What is it?
Don't you have any desire
to grow a mustache?
I don't think so.
Seems like a hassle
to keep a mustache like you.
When drinking coffee,
the mustache gets chocolate in it.
Rice gets stuck as well.
Really?
That only happens in the early stages.
I've never experienced any of that.
Yes, hello?
What?
Okay, I'll just turn around now.
Ari, we're heading back to the office.
There's a famous artist and producer
who have come to my office.
They need legal consultation.
So, just get us back now.
Miss Inul, how about
we do some action sequences now?
Like they do in those movies.
We'll go to an ATM and grab 50 million
and you can give me my 25 million share.
What do you say?
Sorry.
It's not that I refuse, but
I'll enter into the joint venture
after the contract is completed.
Because I don't want to get scammed again.
Hey.
Are you mute or what?
You're like a flat volleyball.
Here, you'd better do something.
Start making the contract.
Here's my ID card.
I thought it was money.
Money? Work first!
Relax!
My staff is typing it right now.
I'm the boss, the lawyer.
I just need to sign papers.
-Here's our meal.
-Here you go.
Thank you.
Here's our meal.
Please, bon appétit.
A rice box? Seriously?
I always pick a five-star restaurant
when I'm with my artists.
Just take what
you've been given, will you?
Who are they?
My besties.
Uncle, where's daddy?
He's out on business.
Let me have a meal first, okay?
What are you doing?
Selfies. For social media updates.
Why do you need to take selfies?
You're taking so long to just eat it.
All right.
What's wrong, Mr. Smirk?
That goes for you too! Respect your food.
Eat it all.
Lots of people out there
can't get enough food.
Eat it all up!
What a bunch of weird people.
I'm becoming weirder too
just from being here.
Absurd.
The charisma of a lawyer never fails.
Surely this pretty woman is infatuated
and has fallen in love with me.
What is it, Ari?
Your cough isn't better?
Sorry, I forgot something.
You are Mr. Adam?
The brother-in-law of Mr. Dodi,
the lawyer?
Um, yes.
I am Adam, but I am the lawyer, not Dodi.
-Adam.
-Inul.
What is it now?
I want to get to know her too.
I'm just a little confused.
A music producer of your class
who has a company
surely has a legal team of their own.
So, why come to me
just to get a contract sorted?
Yes, I do have a team.
But Ms. Inul here wants it urgently.
So, I looked for the closest law office.
So here I am
since this was the closest law office.
Besides, my lawyer is currently busy
dealing with a tour.
He's currently in Borneo.
I just got back from Kalimalang yesterday.
The roads had such bad traffic jams.
People were singing and rolling
on the ground for four songs straight!
Yes, I understand.
But there's one slight problem.
I'm a bit
Oh, come on.
You don't believe me, do you?
Here, I can show you some papers
and prove myself.
Here, take a look at this.
Right?
Here.
You see? Another one.
What's that?
Oh, sorry.
This is Haji Hussein's rented house.
No idea how it got here.
Here's the down payment for the contract.
Please accept it, sir.
Actually
No problem for me.
Awesome.
Please help me.
This is my chance.
I have given my promise
to the people of my village
that I will become
a famous singer in Jakarta.
Please help me, sir.
This is my dream and
this may be a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity for me.
I sympathize with this pretty one.
Okay. I will help you, all right?
I will help you make that contract.
For that, I will need
Miss Inul's ID card
and also yours, Mr. Komang.
It's Komeng!
Komang I mean Komeng.
Komeng.
"Komang" is a song by Laode. I'm Komeng.
All right.
All right then,
please give us your ID card.
Excuse me, sir.
It's your car. It's
I'll deal with the car later.
For now, please get me ten stamps
a plain large brown envelope
with a strap attached,
and paper glue,
but make sure it's liquid
instead of a glue stick.
Roger that.
A plain large brown map.
With a strap.
Please read the draft first.
No need to do that, Mr. Adam.
I'm a trusting person.
Unlike you with your suspicious
thoughts toward me.
Get it over with. Come on.
Okay, then we just need
to wait for the stamp.
Yes.
So, did you get everything?
I got everything.
Nothing's missing, right?
Of course not.
Ten stamps.
A plain large brown envelope.
With a strap.
Well, this is a surprise.
And
Well, this is the one that puzzled me.
Why?
Why do you need rat glue?
-Rat glue?
-Rat glue?
Just smear it on your face.
Okay, let's do this the old-school way.
There!
Now, sign it.
Smells rotten.
Okay.
It's settled. Now, let me just take that.
Okay.
Here's the rest of the money
I promised to share.
Thank you.
This will be used to find a place for you
and your manager to live. Okay?
You just relax and take it easy.
All you need to do is
Put some makeup on.
Precisely! Smart of you.
Okay, I need to go for a while.
Just for half an hour.
I'll leave my ID card here.
So that everyone can trust me to return.
You know, there's a lot of scams nowadays.
You can find me at that address.
People know Komeng.
Daddy.
No, Princess. You're not watching
the Popcorn concert.
That's final.
Daddy, all my friends have bought tickets.
Hey, you want to watch
the Popcorn concert?
I have a ticket right here.
There.
-Is that for real?
-Most definitely.
See that barcode?
My company's taking care
of their concert too.
I don't only deal with local artists.
I deal with international ones as well.
You can even give me Inter Milan
and I'll take care of them.
Huh.
I got four tickets. You want them?
Dad, this is real!
I can give them to you at half-price.
Something to sell!
Deal! I'll buy all of them.
Here, two million.
Sure. They're all yours.
There's the barcode.
-One ticket for you.
-Yes!
Thanks, Uncle!
-Ms. Inul.
-Yes, sir?
Here, take a look.
Today's hottest news.
Once again, we remind you
to please beware of a scam involving a man
pretending to be a dangdut producer.
This is a sophisticated scam
and the scammer uses various false
identities including "Komeng."
FRAUD UNDER THE GUISE
OF A DANGDUT PRODUCER
Huh, really?
A tour of 20 cities!
Yeah!
But
you need to make a deposit
of ten million first.
Hold on, sir.
He's asking for ten million upfront.
Just give it to him! Think about the tour!
Hello? Okay, I'll comply.
-How can I send it to you?
-You can do it through me.
You can just transfer it, Ms. Inul.
I'll give you my account number
and our office address.
So
where are you heading to now?
I don't know where to go.
Going back home means
I'll be embarrassed more.
Besides, the money from my father
selling his cows is all gone now.
Peace be upon you.
Peace be upon you too, Inul.
By the way, have you received the money
I got from selling those cows?
You mean this?
Why are you selling your cows, Dad?
I will earn a lot of money
in Jakarta, Dad.
It's okay, Nul.
That's the only help I can give.
What matters is that
you can achieve your dream.
Make your family proud.
Don't forget to do daily prayers.
Don't do anything
forbidden by our religion.
-Always take care
-Yes, Dad.
As well as having tons of trash,
Jakarta is full of bad people.
Yes, Dad. Thank you, Dad.
I really have no idea where to go.
I don't know anyone in Jakarta.
Step aside, Ari.
Please, move. I want to see Daddy.
-Come on, step aside. Daddy!
-You haven't slept yet?
I'm sorry, sir, but she insisted.
-Hush. Daddy?
-What is it, Maura?
There's an issue with my Popcorn ticket!
Here, look.
I don't get a number for my seat!
It says unregistered.
Stop it! Please, don't say anything
about the tickets, Maura!
We've been duped, Maura.
Ms. Inul.
What graduate degree do you have?
I have a bachelor's degree
in administration.
What do you think
I mean, what if
I offered you a job as my assistant?
What do you say?
Will you accept?
You can work here
while waiting for your chance
to be a dangdut singer.
Do you mean it, sir?
I accept, sir.
But
please don't call me Miss Inul.
Just call me Inul.
Because I'm your employee.
All right.
Then I'd like to request something
from you too.
Don't call me "sir" again.
Just call me "Mas Adam."
Even my driver, Ari,
calls me "mas" instead of "sir."
Okay, sir. I mean, Mas Adam.
Okay then. Starting from tomorrow,
you will be working for me. Okay?
Thank you very much, sir.
Praise be to God.
Oh, what's this?
A phone starting to ring
means another lot of cash coming in.
Yes? Hello, who is this?
Via? Via who? Via toll?
Oh, Via Valentino.
Okay. So, do we have a deal?
The car's moving backward.
No, no.
My hand just slipped. Okay, so
Do we have a deal
with that tour of 100 cities?
What do you say, Miss Pia?
Why am I calling you Miss Pia?
Am I seeing green beans in you?
