Storyline:

Benjamin “Benjie” Santos VIII is a gay man who wants to prove his worth to his grandfather, help spare his aging father from military drafting, and save the country from terrorists. He keeps his sexuality from the trainees and superiors and makes friends with the other misfits of the team. They went into rigorous training to change from being weaklings to perfectly capable soldiers. Their hard work pays off and gets acknowledged by their trainers. Another team of trainees stages Benjie to expose his sexuality and immediately gets him kicked out of the team. His misfit friends walk away with him but incidentally arrive at the terrorists’ camp. They go back to give the intel to their superiors, but they are ignored. They take matters into their own hands and come out victorious.
