- Olivia Uriarte is a woman recently divorced from her fifth husband and completely ruined. Intent on preventing the impending decline, Olivia hatches a detailed plan to bring about her death...or rather, her murder.
- Eccentric millionaire Olivia sends her half sister Agatha, and a group of old acquaintances, a mysterious invitation for a weekend on her yacht, where they will discover the true motive behind this invitation: the celebration of... a murder? Caught off-guard by an unexpected death, and with the help of a rookie policeman, Agatha will try to figure out if this is merely an accident or an elaborate plan for revenge.
- Agatha (Regina Blandón) runs a successful podcast where she talks about true crime cases and insists that people focus on the details. Agatha gets an invitation from her sister to come visit her immediately. Agatha hasn't seen Olivia for five years. They had last met at Olivia's (Maribel Vedu) daughter Elisa's funeral, and they have been low contact since.
Agatha packs her bags and sets off to meet her sister, only to find that she has invited a bunch of other people as well, as she is organizing a game that no one seems to know about or understand. This group consists of people who supposedly love and hate Olivia for a number of reasons, but none of them question why she is wasting their time. It is as if they are all used to her antics, and there is no fighting her. The general setup is that Carlos (Pedro Damian), Olivia's soon-to-be ex-husband, is paying for the entire thing. Carlos is in constant touch with the hospital over phone with something involving the Mayor. Agatha had heard Carlos and Cristina (The house maid) talking, and Carlos saying that he had to get to the hospital. Gustavo is Cristina's assistant.
As expected, the group meets Olivia on a yacht, and she instantly makes everyone uncomfortable. She talks about how Sonia (Stephanie Cayo) has always hated her because Olivia started dating her boyfriend, Carlos, who was also an investor in her perfume line. Then there is Sonia's boyfriend, Naram (Aaron Diaz), who is there for absolutely no reason. Carlos and Olivia are separating on unfriendly terms, and there is a doctor Figue (Jose Maria De Tavira) on board who has a troublesome past with Carlos' hospitals. Figue used to work for Carlos at one of his hospitals in the past but has now quit and has his own small clinic. Figue comments that Elisa was Carlos and Olivia's adopted daughter, something that Agatha did not know. Elisa died 5 years ago in a car accident. Cary (Monalo Cardona) is Olivia's ex-boyfriend. Cary's is financially indebted to Carlos and Olivia's for covering his legal fees when he accidentally shot a crew member on his film set.
Essentially, Olivia says that none of them are there out of love but to keep tabs on the people they are not fond of. They all will benefit from Olivia's death. Even Agatha can be considered to be in danger since she is the heir to Olivia's wealth. Olivia ends the night on this note of high tension and discomfort and retires to her room. A few hours later, a deafening noise pierces the night and Olivia is found on the deck, with her neck broken as she has fallen off of it. Olivia has been killed, and her murderer is on board. As the yacht nears land, the group realizes that the nearby mobile phone tower antenna is blown up.
Since the death occurred between two territories, some details need to be ironed out as to who will be investigating the case. Until then, all the people on board are asked to stay in the beach house by Officer Jaime Magallon, who is accompanied by a lieutenant. Carlos wants to leave but is not allowed to by Office Magallon.
At the house, things are tense since Carlos is not happy about not being able to notify the hospital about his absence. Carlos argues that he is the chief surgeon at the hospital, and he has patients there. There is no reception in the area since the cell phone tower blew up right around the time of Olivia's death. Meanwhile, Agatha discovers that Olivia had been battling depression for the last five years. After her adopted daughter's death, Olivia had isolated herself from everyone, which was why she and Carlos were getting divorced, in addition to the fact that he had cheated during this time. Carlos also blamed Agatha for not staying in touch with Olivia, not knowing that it was his wife who had pushed away her sister.
In the middle of this fight, there is another incident in the house. Somebody tries to shoot Naram while he is in his room, and that is the second mystery for Agatha to solve. She teams up with the lieutenant to solve the case. Agatha finds hidden passages in the villa, one also in Naram's room, behind the bedroom closet. Agatha steps out of the house against Magallon's instructions and makes a few calls to her partner back home, asking her to investigate some names and people so that she can understand what her sister wanted. Evidently, the purpose of Agatha receiving that invitation was for her to investigate the clues that Olivia had dropped during dinner, and the sister is doing her job diligently. Naram says that he has no ID, but that is false as he had to have an ID to book an international flight. In Olivia's room, Agatha finds death certificates issued for death of young children. Agatha asks her partner Iris to investigate the names of the dead children whose certificates she found. Iris finds that one of the certificates belonged to Elisa, but was dated 7 years earlier to when Elisa actually died.
There is a bit of history which is the reason why Olivia did what she did, and Agatha starts with that. She reveals that Naram is actually Ramiro Manuel Godoy, the uncle of Olivia's adopted daughter, Elisa. His sister, Renata Godoy, had been Elisa's biological mother. She was a victim of Carlos' scheme, where he told unsuspecting mothers that their child had passed away, only to give them away to rich couples who were looking for adoptions. Renata had committed suicide when she was told that her daughter had passed away, not knowing that she had been given to Olivia to raise as her own daughter. But when Elisa actually died two years later, her photograph was all over the media, and that is when Ramiro saw her and understood that something was wrong. He needed to approach Olivia to understand what was going on, and Sonia was the key to doing that. Both of them had one common interest, which was to pull down Olivia, and they had teamed up for it. However, Olivia proved to be a far kinder person, and when she realized what had happened with Ramiro and Renata, she promised to bring them justice, and that is what she had been doing for the last few years.
The person who had tried to shoot Ramiro was Ms. Cristina, Carlos' housekeeper. Cristina was a nurse at Carlos's hospitals and was present when Renata went into labor. She was the one who told Renata that her child did not survive. The passage from Naram's bedroom led to Cristina's bedroom. She had been a crucial part of Carlos' scheme, and she recognized Naram as Ramiro when she saw him. That is the reason she tried to kill him, and Carlos was well aware of it. One of the reasons Carlos was so desperate to contact the hospital was because an illegal adoption was being planned for the governor and his wife, and he needed to be there for it. Gustavo was a loyal servant to Olivia. He had lost an eye on Carlos's construction site, but it was Olivia who kept Carlos's promise to get him an eye transplant. Gustavo blew up the transmission tower on Olivia's instructions.
The way Olivia had figured out all this was that she had terminal cancer and was in her last few days. Therefore, justice for children like Elisa and their parents had been her final mission, and she gave her life for that. Agatha guessed that Olivia had killed herself but staged it as a murder so that the investigation would confine the people on the boat to the house. It was on her instructions that Gustavo had blown up the cell tower, leaving Carlos with no means to contact the governor or his staff. Agatha's job was to get to the bottom of the matter in the time Olivia had bought with her plan, and it had been successful.
Carlos and Cristina try to run away on the yacht, but since that now belongs to Agatha, she gladly blows it up (as Gustavo said that he had kept another bomb on the yacht in case Carlos and Cristina tried to run away), ruining their escape. Everyone gets an answer to their involvement in the last game of Olivia, and Ramiro gets justice for his sister. Agatha also figures out that Dr. Figue administered a deadly dose of morphine to Olivia, as per her wishes, to ease her pain in her final moments, right before she made the jump. He was returning the favor that she had done for him many years ago. Figue used to work for Carlos many years ago and performed an emergency C-section one night. The patient died. Carlos tried to buy Figue's silence by paying him a large sum of money. Olivia helped Figue open a clinic and get out of Carlos's universe.
As for Agatha, she has inherited her sister's wealth, and she lives happily ever after, solving cases with her partner, Iris.
