Premise

edit

One unfateful night, Juris (Bela Padilla), along with her fellow law graduates: Drei (Tony Labrusca), Greco (Kit Thompson), Gaylord (Sandino Martin), Lolita (Ivana Alawi) and their friend Bogs (Ketchup Eusebio), accidentally run over a woman named Barbara (Rubi Rubi) who had kidnapped a baby from a local hospital. They agree to bury Barbara's body afterwards in the hills overlooking Baguio. Discovering the baby in the grass, Juris takes care of the child as her own, wracked with guilt and believing that they had killed the child's mother. The real mother, Fina (Jodi Sta. Maria), emerges years later and is desperate to win her child back. The story follows the subsequent actions of the lawyers, who are torn between doing the right thing or disregarding the law they had sworn to uphold.
