February 22, 2025
A Night to Remember on ‘Your Business’
In the February 21, 2025, episode of ‘Your Business,’ Gaetano da Reale captivated the audience from the start but ended up losing everything in the grand finale. The episode, hosted by Stefano De Martino, aired on the prime-time slot of Rai one, featuring Gaetano, a fun insurance consultant from the Campania region. Gaetano, supported by his wife Anna, affectionately known as “Lisa,” entertained the audience with his charismatic personality and engaging stories.
The Game Begins
Gaetano’s journey began with him pulling the package number 3 and challenging the doctor, Pasquale Romano. Before the game started, Gaetano took off his jacket and asked Stefano De Martino for permission, to which De Martino replied, “Of course, do as if you were at your house, throw it to wolf!
” Gaetano then spent some time embracing the conductor, telling him, “I love you, do you know?
” De Martino, after returning the embrace, replied, “I love you too!
“
The Game Unfolds
After the initial excitement, the game continued with Gaetano and Anna opening several packages. They eliminated 5,000 euros, 75,000 euros, and 300,000 euros, which left Gaetano and Anna frustrated. Gaetano commented, “Have you pulled? We are ruined! We have lost the goal
” referring to the fact that they were only opening red numbers.
The Turning Point
In pack 14 of the Veneto, they found 0 euros, despite Gaetano’s initial hesitation. The couple then danced together for the last time to “Sex and Samba.” De Martino ironically asked, “How will I do from tomorrow? You will leave a full emptiness!
” Gaetano, however, did not take the joke lightly, and the game continued.
The Final Blow
The game went on with the couple finding 15,000 euros, 20 euros, and 50 euros. The doctor offered the change, but Gaetano continued his race, making a particular request to the conductor to draw on his “great buttock.” De Martino, laughing, told him, “Do not touch me
” for a couple of times. Gaetano then approached him, asking him to come where he was born. After embracing him, Gaetano took advantage of it to touch the B side. Later, Gaetano opened three other packages worth 50,000 euros, 500 euros, and 200,000 euros, a loss that left the competitor dismayed.
The Controversy Unfolds
After the episode aired, social media erupted with controversy. Many viewers were shocked that Gaetano, who had entertained the audience for months, ended up with only 75 euros. Comments ranged from, “Are you telling me that Gaetano, after literally feeding us, won 75 euros????
” to “Practically if he chose the other card he would have returned at least 15k euros, he made the double choice from the worst case
“.
Criticism and Praise
There was also criticism directed at Gaetano himself. Some viewers felt that his friendly demeanor cost him the game. Comments included, “To be a sympathic, he returned home empty-handed
” and “If he had reasoned instead of being a nice one, he would have sensed that the doctor did not offer him the change did not want to screw him and make the episode end
“.
