Plot

Five years after Northford High School Graduation, William was in a coma, but suddenly, he finally woke up and gained consciousness. Sky, now a multimedia reporter, has her worst nightmares of William. One day, Sky showed her project in front of executives about William’s atrocious activities with victims interviewed by her. Dante, the multimedia company's boss, hired Sky after she convinced him to give her a chance to take a job. At night, Sky and her friends were reunited at Sanya’s and Kenjie’s engagement party (and also an unofficial Northford reunion). While Sky and her friends were partying, an unknown hacker took Sky’s phone, which she left, went into hiding, and downloaded software to track her motives as much as possible. A few moments later, Sky was finding her phone, and Gino found it and gave it to her.

One morning, Sky was ten minutes late due to the hacker’s motive to turn off the alarm set on her phone. She met Wesley and Nikki, in which they could work together with Sky on their first project. One night, Tania unexpectedly meets a woman named Tori, whom she had a minor bicycle accident. In the morning, Sky visits Luna and Harry’s resting place, which then receives a surprise incident by a stalker whom she believes to be Z. She tells Gino about the incident. Then he calls Archie, who is imprisoned in Orange County, California. Later, Cecille took Gino to face William, which angered him.

Later in the morning, Sky gets into trouble as leaked footage spreads throughout the internet, revealing that an angry Dante has fired her, Wesley, and Nikki. Tim, now a cyber investigator for the Philippine National Police (PNP), tried to help Sky. Still, Police Colonel Emil Concha refused to let him cooperate as it could tarnish his reputation. Afterward, Sky returned to the same building and witnessed the male hacker but could not catch him. She then catches the same witness, who eventually gets paid by the hacker, and convinces him of their motives. This led to Sky, Wesley, and Nikki being put under suspension instead by Dante.

Gino was checking on William’s nervous system by punctuating his feet with a needle. Afterward, Sky is determined to find Z and insists on seeing William to quell her suspicions. She sneaks into the hospital, where William is captive. Upon seeing William, he wakes up and, in anger, sees Sky as she sacredly gets out of the room as quickly as possible. However, Cecile shows up and sees Sky, igniting her retaliation against her. Gino lets Sky get out of the hospital and tells her mother the truth about his father’s consciousness. Meanwhile, Tania unexpectedly meets Tori again when she finds her new job, and it appears that Tori is the CEO of Soleil. She gave Tania a task to become her assistant. Tim talked to Roxy, who is now a nurse, about Archie. She expressed her emotions about Archie’s broken promises and feeling abandoned while she had her son to take care of. Poch showed up, and then an intern doctor, Kevin, who is helpful to Roxy, had a chance to meet them. Then, at night, Kevin expresses to court Roxy as he takes her back home.

One night, Z arrived at the Aguerro family’s old house, but an unknown man took a photo of her and anonymously sent it to Sky. Later in the morning, Sky confronted her half-sister about threats to what had been happening for the past five years. Z told Sky that her mother, Sasha, died, and her brother Archie was in prison and that she had nowhere else to go.  They hug each other for their forgiveness for unintentionally abandoning each other, but they are blindsided by a hacker who tracks their motives. Sky was supposed to take Z to the airport one morning for her safety. However, the kidnappers took Z unconsciously to the van as Sky saw the shocking incident and was unable to make her out in time. The police were looking for the kidnapper via CCTV footage, but it was broken down when that happened. The kidnapper took Z to an unknown location, where she was kept inside.

At night, Wesley returns to his home and enters a secret room where Nikki is. It appears that they are the hackers who sabotaged Sky. Tori calls them for their plans, confirming the group’s motive. Sky has a new phone and finds a way to shut down the server on her old phone where the group had been monitoring her. However, Tori’s hackers sabotage Sky by framing her for kidnapping Z. This leads to an misinformation spreading online and Sky being temporarily detained.
