Eddie (Majid Michel) and June (Mbong Amata) share what seem to be the perfect marriage. Eddie began to lose control of his life when June had a fatal accident on a trip out of town. Eddie's junior brother Tony (Ben Touitou) appealed to June's best friend, Tobi (Beverly Naya) to help Eddie recover from the emotional breakdown from the death of his wife. Tobi eventually persuaded Eddie to join her dance group which eventually led to an emotional connection between them. Several months had gone by and, Eddie and Tobi finally decided to get married despite the reservation of Tobi about their union. It's about 2 years since June was involved in the accident and Tobi is now pregnant with Eddie's baby when June shockingly visited their matrimonial home explaining the circumstances regarding the accident and how Dr. George (Blossom Chukwujekwu) saved her.
After several power tussle events between June and Tobi, Eddie finally decided to keep both of them as wives. After some consultations made by June with Eddie's colleagues, she decides to return to George whom she refused to heed to his romantic advances towards her.
