Let’s drop by the fictional Presidential Palace in FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano where the imposter Mariano (Rowell Santiago) is having the best days of his life. Not only does he enjoy pretending as President Oscar (Rowell Santiago) but he also revels in his amusing ‘pogi’ problem – two women battling for his attention. Now, who says only Cardo Dalisay (Coco Martin) gets all the lovely girls? Check out these behind-the-scenes photos of Mariano, Ellen, and Cassandra!

We also find it hilarious how Mariano rose to become God’s gift to two gorgeous women. Well, he knows how to play his cards by using his make-believe power as lure. And if someone from history launched a thousand ships, Mariano can launch an intense female match between two first lady-wannabes. “Mariano lang sakalam,” the netizens have spoken.

On opposite corners of this complicated love triangle stand Ellen (Ara Mina) and Cassandra (Maika Rivera) –gorgeous, hot, irresistible, and ambitious women zealously praying for the throne of First Lady.
Ellen used to make do with being a quiet companion of her husband, Art (Tirso Cruz III), in his political affairs while holding on to her own desire for prestige. So when she found an easier route to power by sharing an affair with Mariano, the ambitious Ellen willingly gave in.

Mariano had Ellen at “Pwede kitang gawing first lady ko.” Ellen is confident that she can wrap the pseudo president around her finger until Lily (Lorna Tolentino)’s spawn, the seductress Cassandra came.

Mariano has encountered a lot of women in his life but Cassandra is different. She’s young and fresh, totally sensual from head to toe. And according to him, Cassandra can give him the thrill he doesn’t get from Ellen. Check out her photos and you’ll know.

So, who between Ellen and Cassandra will emerge victorious in this female clash? Let’s ask the lucky guy. “Litong lito na ako. Hindi ko bibitawan si Ellen. Hindi ko rin bibitawan si Cassandra,” Mariano said in an episode. Why choose one when you can have both? “Diskarte lang ‘yan,” he added.
