Smoke and Mirrors (idiom): irrelevant or misleading information serving to obscure the truth of a situation Claude Hesita is an aviation student who needs to disguise as a speech therapist. Hindi siya maaring pumasok sa isang gulo na malalaman ng kaniyang mga magulang. It's a matter of life and death kumbaga para sa kaniya ang ginagawa niya. Kaya sa isang iglap lang ay nagbago ang ikot ng mundong kaniyang gustong galawan. Nagkaroon siya ng bagong katauhan sa mga kasinungaling lumalabas sa kaniyang bibig upang mairaos lang ang sitwasyon niya. Ngunit hanggang kailan niya mapapaniwala ang mga taong nasa paligid niya? Sa mga mababanggit niya, ano dito ang katotohan at ano ang mga kasinungalingan?

Isang lalaki na wala pang napapatunayan sa sarili bukod sa mga kalokohang ginawa niya at walang katapusang pagiging pasaway sa kanilang pamilya. Hindi siya nag-iisip sa mga bagay na ginagawa niya bago kumilos; that's why he did something that changed his life. The night he pretended to be a woman, ...was the day he captured the heart of a mafia boss.
