The Story So Far.....
Eliseo and Nenita Javier (Carlo Aquino and Anna Luna as the young husband and wife) started off Wink Milk as a small family business 20 years ago in the farm. They have a son whom they called Sebastian. Fast forward to 20 years later, and Eliseo (Ariel Ureta) is waiting for wife Nenita (Gloria Diaz) and son Sebastian (Zanjoe Marudo) to come to the 20th Anniversary celebration in Manila, where he will make a major announcement. Good friend Mike (Ketchup Eusebio) picks up Nenita and Baste, but a series of emergencies delay their arrival.

However, during a reststop break, Nenita hears a woman screaming at the next cubicle. She finds out that the woman was about to give birth as well, so she shouts to Baste to help the lady give birth. Baste has never delivered a human baby before, but is able to handle it equipped with his knowledge of delivering new-born calves.
