lol... Why would a filipina take 3 hours getting ready for an emergency situation? You my friend have been taking the "Filipino Time pill". And thus, your scenario is plausible.
In response to...Great post btw!
I thought the British option was to go out and get pissed, then, after losing your keys you end up begging her to get out of bed at 3am to let you in the house. It then takes her another hour to to reach the front door...and another 3 days to start speaking to you again.
