Back in the present, at the huddle, Happy (Rubi Rubi) informs the hotel staff about the important and high-profile guests arriving at the resort, including Dr. Jessie Morillo (Robert Seña) and Coney Morillo (Sandy Andolong), accompanied by Coney's personal nurse, Claire Alegre (Rans Rifol). Love (Inka Magnaye) will be in charge of them. “Mga regular VIP natin ‘yan,” says Happy. The couple will be coming to celebrate their 45th wedding anniversary.
Meanwhile, Grace (Vangie Castillo) will be in charge of the social media influencers: Jules Santos (AC Bonifacio), her best friend Ice Mercado (Kai Montinola), and Bogs Lim (Emilio Daez), along with their manager, Mama Ona Chan (Xilhouette). Smile (Rikki Mae Davao) will handle Engineer Mike (Cris Villanueva) and Architect Minnie Del Rosario (Nikki Valdez), together with their daughter Maddie (Zia Grace). The couple were the visionaries behind the beautiful structure of La Playa Roja.
Joy (Sophie Reyes) will take care of Macky Maristella (Kobie Brown), son of Senator Eduardo Maristella, who will arrive at the helipad with his bodyguards and entourage. He will be accompanied by Jabbas Cheng (Iñigo Jose), Boss Topak (Benedict Cua), and his girlfriend, Rita Prudencio (Maika Rivera).
Greta (Lorna Tolentino) later arrives and starts to instruct the staff on proper etiquette, how to interact well with the guests, and emphasizes that presence of mind is essential. She then receives a phone call informing her that the last VIP guest, Bishop Anthony Narciso (Marc Abaya), has arrived at the hotel, completing the 200 guests of La Playa Roja.
The guests begin to arrive, with Fin (Igi Boy Flores) and Olsen (Kyle Echarri) welcoming them while the security team inspects their belongings. They come in one by one, including Mr. and Mrs. Del Rosario with their daughter Maddie. Doctor Jessie and nurse Claire arrive with Coney, who awkwardly asks Olsen if he and Liam are now on good terms. Olsen only smiles awkwardly in response. The influencers---Jules, Bogs, and Ice---so arrive, with Jules starting to get irritated by the security checks. Ice is held briefly when a fake gun is found among her belongings. She laughs it off, leaves the fake gun with security, and even flirts a little with Olsen before proceeding.
