Two crooks Bob (Wally Bayola) and Billy (Jose Manalo) stole some jewelries while the employees are busy. They were captured and imprisoned, but they devised a plan. They put seals on their attorney's (Ryan Yllana) peanut butter jar and pass them off as stool samples, then they devour it on front of the court, which decided they are insane and must be imprisoned at a mental health facility.

The duo immediately build a plan to escape the facility, by hiding in caskets ready for burial. Then their accomplice will exhume them and let them escape. But their plan had a problem, a nurse Marcia Cunanan (Iza Calzado) acts as their nurse-in-charge, as well as Dra. Jessica Lopez (Ehra Madrigal) the head doctor, forcing them in horrific situations. During their stay they hear a story about Ramil (Paolo Contis) who claims to be a criminal that acts insane in order to escape the law and tried to escape by pretending to be dead and gets buried in the next door cemetery but died as a result. The duo try to pull off the same plan, but later split when one of them hesitates and tries to find another way out.
