Main cast

Actor Character Character description
Noel Trinidad[2] Fernando 'Anding' Tengco Anding Tengco is a corrupt congressman,[2] an endless evil-doer, and a filthy rich womanizer. He will stop at nothing to get to the presidency, and conscience and truth are two words unknown to him. Due to his record of absence in Congress, he remains in his district office all the time with his scotch whisky.
Tessie Tomas[3] Barbara Tengco Barbara is Anding's drug-crazed wife,[3] whose only concerns in life are plastic surgery and shopping.
Anjo Yllana[4] Ferdinand Benigno 'Dino' Tengco Dino is the only child of Anding and Barbara—spoiled and vulgar. Violence is the only way he expresses himself, having grown up psychologically impaired: At a very young age, he got thrown out a building window and survived.
Joji Isla Del Del is the bodyguard of Anding, proverbial yes-man, hitman, and executor. He is as ruthless as his boss, more scheming than his boss's wife, and dangerously at par with his boss's son when it comes to violence. He is paid to protect his boss and protect him and his interests he will, though sick and dastardly they may be.
Nova Villa Tita delos Santos Tita delos Santos is the ultimate representation of a social climber. She is the constant companion of Barbara Tengco, and she's as cheap as they come, obsessed with plastic and easy moneymaking gimmicks. She is the younger sibling of Luningning and sister in law of Samuel.
