I get a kick out of the code switching. The one I remember best is somebody on the news talking in Tagalog and making lots of gestures and then she suddenly says in English "The bottom line is, the governor has a mistress."
That was some good drama too with his wife running out on him and driving all night to another province so she couldn't be kidnapped.
