Plot

Georgina Lorenzana, an ambitious, driven, and bossy business woman, attends a meeting in which the President of the company says that he will be taking a two month leave, leaving Georgina to run the marketing department in the meantime. The President introduces Pong Dalupan to Georgina, who is the Chief Commercial Officer. Upon leaving, the President gives Georgina the task of getting Nipudu Air as a partner for the company in order to reach the Japanese market and connect their airline with the rest of the Japanese network.

Georgina then meets with the Nipudu Air investor, Mr. Najimoto in which he demands to see her boss and threatens to take the deal off the table on account of her boss not showing up. Pong then walks into the meeting room, giving Georgina the idea to pretend that Pong is the boss. After the initial meeting goes well, Georgina begins to train and prepare Pong in order to keep up the charade that Pong is the boss by changing his wardrobe and working on his conversational skills.

While Pong and Georgina bond with Mr. Najimoto to get him to partner with them, Pong and Georgina begin to bond and form a new friendship. In order to close the deal with Mr. Najimoto, Pong and Georgina must present how their airline can promote a non-tourist destination. In light of this, Pong and Georgina go to Batanes. During their time in Batanes, they visit the Honesty Coffee Shop, go sightseeing, and visit Pong’s family. After experiencing Batanes first hand, Georgina and Pong give a moving presentation which finally settles the deal between them and Mr. Najimoto. Before giving the handshake of agreement, Georgina comes clean about the charade that they had pulled, which made Mr. Najimoto furious and the President of the Marketing Department as well. Georgina tries to resign but the President doesn’t let her because Pong advocates for her to stay. Georgina realizes that Pong is the man she wants and goes after him to tell him that she loves him.
