Pea celebrates hitting 60,000 subscribers (originally planned for 50K, but her audience grew faster than expected) by completing three subscriber-submitted dares. The dares range from walking through a massive Filipino mall in a bath towel to a brutally honest family interrogation by her younger brother, culminating in a recreation of an iconic movie scene. The video is heavy on physical comedy, personal revelations, and Pea's willingness to embarrass herself for her audience.
What's Covered β
Dare #1: Walk around SM Seaside mall in a bath towel (submitted by patron "Big Kahuna")
- SM Seaside is the 11th largest mall in the world and 3rd largest in the Philippines
- Pea notes this is wildly outside Filipino cultural norms β Filipinas are "generally very conservative in public" and "wacky stunts just aren't our thing"
- She walks through the heart of the mall wearing just a towel
- Reactions from shoppers:
- People at the cell phone store stared at her "like I was an escapee from a mental institution"
- Women behind her were talking about "that crazy towel lady"
- One man zeroed in on her from across the mall, his "male radar probably going into overdrive"
- A young couple: the boyfriend couldn't stop looking, and his Filipina girlfriend couldn't help reacting either β Pea quips "hope it was worth getting smacked for"
- She actually got a marriage proposal from a random man, which she declined: "you don't want a YouTuber for a wife β she's busy walking around the mall in a towel"
- Comedy bit: fake mall security radio chatter about "a naked woman running around on the fifth floor" with guards arguing over who gets to respond
Dare #2: Family hot seat β brother Chan asks questions Pea has to answer truthfully (submitted by Nigel W.)
Chan is Pea's 19-year-old little brother who lives with their parents in Leyte
Pea hasn't seen her parents in almost two years; Chan is visiting
The questions come from Pea's family (things they've always wanted to know), and Pea hasn't seen them in advance
The Santo NiΓ±o statue confession
- The family's Santo NiΓ±o (baby Jesus) statue broke when they were kids, and all the siblings got in trouble
- Pea confesses she was the one who broke it β hit it with a broom handle while cleaning
- She didn't confess at the time because she would have gotten hit (corporal punishment with a broom was the norm)
- Rationalizes: "it's not like if I'd confessed it would have fixed the statue"
- Tells her dad: "if you still wanna punish me, good luck β I'm two islands away"
Grades in school
- Pea claims she got straight A's throughout school
- Her lowest grade ever was an 86 on one high school test β not a report card grade
- All final grades were always A and A+ β she has the records in her "mystical box" to prove it
What's really in the box by her bed (from her mom, referencing Dare The Pea 1)
- Her mom saw a mysterious box in a previous video and wants to know what's in it
- Pea says she emptied the box before posting that video
- Refuses to say what was originally in it: "a lot of nunya business"
- Chan declares "challenge failed" and threatens to make her cook her own dinner
The footbridge incident
- When Pea was 18, she fell off a footbridge into water and came home soaking wet
- Her mom was angry and accused her of being drunk; Pea always denied it
- She now confesses: yes, she was drunk β friends kept passing her drinks that she didn't realize had rum in them
- The footbridge was just two logs over water in the dark
- Chan reveals Pea was crying when she got home; Pea didn't remember that part
Breaking her brother's rib
- When Chan was less than a year old (still in a baby walker), Pea was supposed to be watching him
- Instead she was counting her earnings β 18 pesos total β from selling fruit (bananas, guava, jackfruit) and donuts after school for commission
- The house had no child safety features; a ladder had no barricade
- Chan in his walker rolled off and fell, breaking a rib
- This detail reveals the family's poverty β Pea was a child herself, selling fruit for pesos, in a house she calls "our little shack"
The mystery boyfriend at the pageant
- When Pea was 16 (first year of college in the Philippines), she was in a school pageant
- An older guy started loudly cheering for her; she always denied knowing him
- Confession: he was her boyfriend β he was 24, she was 16
- She couldn't admit it because her parents were very strict
- Says they "never did anything but kiss" β it was her first kiss
- Notes: "even when I was younger I'm always attracted to older guys"
Age she lost her virginity: 20
- Chan is surprised it was that late; Pea responds "I am innocent of all charges"
- Refuses to say who it was, though Chan claims he knows
The machete incident
- Pea once chased a boyfriend out of her house with a machete
- She always said the breakup was mutual; now confesses the machete was absolutely the reason he left and never came back
- She didn't tell her dad the machete worked because "he would have just chased them all away" β no more boyfriends allowed
Dare #3: Recreate the pool scene from Fast Times at Ridgemont High (submitted by JRS Medley)
- This dare was submitted seven months earlier when her channel first started
- Pea accepted it on the condition she could wait until 50K subscribers, never thinking she'd actually get there
- She films the recreation (implied to be a bikini scene)
- Comedy bit: someone spots something suspicious floating in the pool β "it doesn't look like a Baby Ruth candy bar" β pool gets shut down for hazmat
Pea closes with a heartfelt message thanking her audience, saying she's "flattered and honored" to have achieved so much in so little time, promises to always be humbled by their support, and says "we've only just begun"
