“Okay lang,” was all Patrick/Patpat (Joshua Garcia) could say when he told his friend Jason (Francis Magundayao) that he had just been fired from St. Benedict Hospital even though Jason found it upsetting especially since Patrick’s brother Matthew/Matmat (Carlo Aquino), who is on the autism spectrum, had also recently been let go from work.With the rainy season starting, Jason worries that things would only get harder since it&#x27;s usually around this time that Patrick and Matmat would have to move again, which also means Jason has to shut down his small business and follow them like he always did. When Patrick told him that he doesn&#x27;t have to come along anymore, Jason firmly said that he isn&#x27;t the type of friend who would ever leave them behind.As they neared home, Jason asked if Matmat is starting to see butterflies again, to which Patrick replied that it&#x27;s not happening yet but they both know it&#x27;s only a matter of time before it does. When they arrived, Jason brought up how difficult it is to seek justice for what happened to the siblings&#x27; mom since Matmat is the only witness. Patrick mentioned again that Matmat always tells him a butterfly killed their mother, which never made sense to him, as the detail doesn&#x27;t match with the fact that it was raining the night their mother was killed, and butterflies don’t come out during the rainy season.Jason pointed out that Matmat at least seems happy now, even if that happiness strangely involves Mia Hernandez (Anne Curtis), the famous but notoriously aloof children’s book author, which reminded Patrick that he had completely forgotten he promised Matmat to ask for an autograph during Mia’s event at the hospital earlier that day.The next scene was laced with feel-good hilarity when Patrick asked Jason to fake the autograph instead. But they couldn’t fool Matmat, who immediately knew the autograph was fake. He&#x27;s become a huge fan, so much so he had already memorized Mia’s signature. He threw a tantrum and locked himself inside the closet, and only came out when Jason joined in the chaos and messed up Matmat&#x27;s collection of Mia’s books. While he threw a fit and Jason joined in the chaos, Patrick received a message from Mia’s manager, Vincent (Enchong Dee).Catch “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/its-okay-to-not-be-okay" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">It’s Okay To Not Be Okay</a>” on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live (KOL), A2Z, and TV5, weeknights at 8:45 PM.
