Premise

Best friends Dave, Billy, Jason, Pete, and Jeremy all enjoyed living life to the fullest on the tropical beaches of Baler, Aurora. Dave, who aspires to get educated in Manila, must continue to face the hard times as his mother struggles to make a living and help Dave fulfill his dream, until he suddenly meets a tourist named Nicole due to an accident. Not knowingly, there is something suspicious with Nicole's stay in Baler that would test both Dave's restrained feelings for her, and the friendship the "Baler Boys" have sustained just for that reason.
