Synopsis
There is an underground battle going on in the name of love. The soldiers are all Pikapistas. With pickup lines as their weapons to woo the gorgeous Neneng B, the war sizzles in the dark corners of the metro. And there is one undefeated champion among them: Boy Pick-up. Legendary, enigmatic, hypnotic, that's his appeal to most who don't get what his lines are all about, but his words penetrate their hearts just the same. 

Despite his underground fame and legend, Boy Pick-up lives a normal and solitary life. He works as a pastry chef in Heaven's Bakeshop, a bakery owned by ANGEL (Solenn Hesussaff) and soon Angel feels indebted to Boy while Boy starts to fall for her.

Unknown to Boy, a dark force in the name of BAGWIS (Dennis Trillo) is operating to destroy him. Bagwis succeeds in defeating him one night during a pickup battle showdown, humiliating himself in front of Angel. The defeat takes its toll on Boy, his love life and his confidence. He realizes he needs to rise above his situation so he can redeem himself. How will Boy emerge from the darkness, and how will he regain his foothold of the Pikapista championship crown? Now, only one question remains: Bakit?
