Maidnappers
Maidnappers is an adventure story arc of the Philippine comic strip series ''Pugad Baboy'', created by Pol Medina Jr. and originally published in the Philippine Daily Inquirer. This particular story arc lasts 88 strips. It is one of the three longest ''Pugad Baboy'' story arcs, the others being ''Aso'' and "The Bourne Ambrosity". In 1994, the story arc was reprinted in ''PB5'', the fifth book compilation of the comic strip series. ''Maidnapper'' is a portmanteau of the words "maid" and "kidnapper".
==Synopsis==
Tiny, Bab and Polgas arrive at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport to meet her Filipino-American cousin Gwen. Gwen is accompanied by Gloria, her Cebuana nanny, who takes an instant liking to Bab, much to his discomfiture and makes a few attempts to get a kiss from him, which he answers with a kick to the chin. Later that evening, Bab serenades Gwen with help from Joboy and Polgas. Tiny and Gloria tell Gwen that she's supposed to pour a bucket of water on the singers; unfamiliar with Filipino customs, Gwen complies.
In the succeeding days of her stay, Gwen is immersed in Filipino culture; she is exposed to potholed streets, frequently changed street names, exotic native dishes, including Dagul's "Soup Number Five", Filipino movies (which she calls "typically third world"), discusses the merits of communism with Noli, and marvels at the capacity of Filipinos to eat each and every part of the chicken. After being jokingly told by Tiny that the local siopao she had consumed had cat meat in it, she vows to eat nothing but chicken for the rest of her stay.
