A group of entitled nepo babies go to Sagada for a wild long weekend to celebrate their 1st work anniversary – Ada, the ‘Queen Bee’ of the group; J, her influencer boyfriend; Bella, a model; Kel and Sho , twins from a wealthy Spanish family; and Cass, the newest member of the group. They’re the ‘cool kids,’ scions from affluent families. They are met in their private villa by Gil, caretaker and tour guide, whom all the girls are attracted to. The climate is crisp and cool, perfect for the activities they have planned. It seems like everything’s set. However, there’s one catch: tagging along with them is Yayo, Cass’s nanny. He was tasked by Cass’s parents to look out for her. Being a probinsyano, he’s excited to visit Sagada. Together, they enjoy the scenic, unique tourist spots that Sagada has to offer. Little does Yayo know, the group is annoyed by his presence as they expect him to get in the way of the group’s plans to get drunk, high, and crazy.
