In the year 2007, Pedro, Arturo, and Eligio were ambitious university students, each with dreams of grandeur, respect, and prosperity, their eyes set on the horizon of their academic pursuits. Fast forward to 2017, and reality has dealt them a hand far from what they had envisioned.

Arturo ekes out a living as a home tutor, dealing with difficult students like Jota, a rebellious teen, while Eligio, the nerdy historian, is cornered into working at a gas station by his desperate parents. Their dreary existence takes a turn when Pedro reignites a dormant project - a revolutionary pill designed to enhance concentration. With their backs against the wall, Arturo and Eligio are roped in to test the pill.
