Bitoy, Atoy and Caloy (Tito, Vic and Joey respectively) are 3 hapless brothers who got employed by a rich couple to take care of their children who turned out to be spoiled brats who have successfully driven out all their nannies from their house through their improvised booby traps. But the brothers stuck through with the children until the end. In the midst of all the mess comes Bridget (Maricel Soriano) who is their next-door neighbor's maid. She becomes the Agatep brothers' object of affection, but unknown to them she also brings trouble.
