Plot
[edit | edit source]Set on a road-trip narrative, Corazon (Sharon Cuneta) and Clark (Andrew E.) embark on a chaotic road trip across Metro Manila while fleeing from kidnappers led by Brando (Bong Alvarez). After a confrontation in a Jollibee restaurant, they escape to Clark's home, where his cousin Bugoy (Smokey Manaloto) and Neneng (Maybelline dela Cruz) live. The kidnappers track them down after recognizing Bugoy’s pick-up truck at a gas station, forcing Clark and Corazon to return to Manila for help. With assistance from Clark's boss, Mr. Calderon (Jon Achaval), and an attorney (Charito Solis), they manage to defeat the kidnappers. It is revealed that Elias (Andy Poe), the mastermind behind the kidnapping, orchestrated the plot for financial gain, but is ultimately exposed and arrested by his wife, Marga (Gloria Sevilla). In the end, Corazon and Clark become wealthy.
