## Plot

The Salazar sisters hold a virtual meeting to discuss their brother CJ's marital problems and reminisce a similar problem during their adolescence.
Years ago, the siblings celebrate their grandmother Ibiang's birthday. Over dinner, Ibiang criticizes their father Caloy for his insufficient income as a schoolteacher. Later, the siblings hear their mother Grace arguing with their father Caloy over his relationship with a certain Linda. Suspecting an affair, Teddie asks Grace her plans on their wedding anniversary. She answers that they will separate, shocking the siblings. Bobbie subsequently learns that Linda is the first name of Mrs. Malvar, Caloy's boss. In a café, Alex sees Caloy embracing a girl asking for a DNA sample from him. When the siblings update each other, their maid Tina Marie, who overhears them, suggests they hire a spy, Bette, who seduces the café's guard to obtain the CCTV footage. Upon reviewing the footage, Alex sees a poster of Caloy's companion, which her crush Chad identifies as a singer named Love Mae Tete. Meanwhile, Grace meets with Edwin, her first love. Later, Gabbie sees a suggestive message from Erwin on Grace's cellphone, leading her to believe that her mother is having an affair.
Grace and Caloy learn that Bobbie qualified for a student exchange program to New York. Caloy recommends her to a scholarship from Linda and announces that Linda recruited him for a five-year teaching job in the U.S. and will temporarily stay at her house. Teddie is convinced that Caloy is having an affair, but Bobbie expresses doubt when her mother agrees with Caloy's plans.
Love Mae calls Caloy to meet again at the café. Alex overhears this and calls Bette. In the café, Chad, who also meets separately with Love Marie, confesses his feelings to Bobbie, having met earlier during one of Alex's film shoots, despite Bobbie's objections. They are overheard by Alex, who gets upset. Teddie taunts Bobbie, leading to a three-way fight with Alex, which is stopped when they are nearly hit by a car carrying Ibiang. Chad later apologizes to Alex and explains that he admires how Bobbie is so protective and loving of her. Meanwhile, Teddie reconnects with her former crush Jeremy, while Gabbie falls for her bestfriend JP, who decides to join the priesthood, breaking her heart.
After Linda arrives for a seminar, Bette hatches a plan to confront her and Love Mae at the venue by luring them to an adjacent ballroom which they book under the pretense of staging a debut. At the venue, Linda meets Bobbie, saying that she recognizes her from Caloy's pictures in their office and expresses her excitement at taking her in, saying that she would be taken care of in New York by her godson Tristan. Linda, Love Mae, and another Linda, surnamed Jacinto, proceed to the ballroom, where Tina Marie and Bette claim to be Gabbie's parents. Mrs. Malvar, with her previous knowledge of the Salazars, accuses them of being criminals, while the siblings accuse her and Love Mae of being homewreckers. Their parents and CJ arrive to see them fighting with the "mistresses".
Caloy explains Mrs. Malvar helped him financially when she offered him a job at the school, where he met Linda Jacinto, who is revealed to be the Linda mentioned by Grace earlier. Grace clarifies that she does not have an affair with Edwin as he is gay, while Love Mae turns out to be Caloy's niece following the results of her DNA test. With the problems resolved, Grace and Caloy reaffirm their love for each other, while the girls apologize to Love Mae and Mrs. Malvar. Tina Marie comes out as a lesbian and renames herself Toti Marie.
In the present, CJ confesses that he almost cheated on his wife Princess. His sisters urge him to come clean and ask her forgiveness, while reminding him of their love.
