Plot

Fugitives Juancho (Janno Gibbs) and Ted (Bayani Agbayani), escape jail and their captors, Hepe (Jovit Moya) and Sgt. Langku (Boy Alano). They integrate into society by working as a school bus driver and conductor. As an incentive, Ted is allowed to continue with his education while Juancho works double time with his education and aids him with his other needs in school. They also develop a special bond with the students, whom they realize have problems of their own. They soon decide to go AWOL in order to take a break from their problems. As they try to return to school, they are intercepted by a gang of bank robbers who take them hostage. But Juan and Ted incite the students to start a riot, disorienting the robbers and causing the bus to teeter on the edge of the ravine. All the passengers escape before the bus plunges and explodes at the bottom, but Juan and Ted are arrested again when the police arrive. However, they are released on their trial when it is revealed that they were framed by their arresting officers for kidnapping.
