SYNOPSIS. Saan Darating ang Umaga? is about the Rodrigo clan led by a powerful patriarch Leonardo (Charlie Davao). Leonardo is a wealthy businessman who is very proud of his humble beginnings. It was only through hard work and diligence that he was able to achieve all the luxuries in life. Today, he is one of the most respected and well-known businessmen in the real-estate business. And because of this, he also expects his two sons Dindo (Gary Estrada) and Ruben (Joel Torre) to follow his lead.

 

Dindo and Ruben are architects working for their father's company. But it was Ruben who took after his father's ideals and compassion for the business. Not only is he talented but he is kind-hearted. He is a loving husband to Lorrie and a caring father to his daughter Shayne.

 

Dindo, meanwhile, is the opposite of Ruben. He and his wife Agatha (Pinky Amador) are very dependent and still live with Leonardo. Aside from not having a child, Dindo has been rumored for having an extramarital affair with his secretary Mylene (Shirley Fuentes).

 

When Leonardo passed away, the Rodrigo patriarch left all his wealth and the firm to Ruben. But unknown to Ruben, his father's last will marks the beginning of a series of misfortune in their family.

 

Ruben and Lorrie have been longing to have another child since their only daughter Shayne is already a teenager. However, they will find out that Lorrie can no longer bear a child leading them to adopt a young boy named Joel (Jacob Rica).

 

Joel's presence provides an overwhelming happiness to couple Lorrie and Ruben. But it will be the beginning of Shayne's rebellion for she will feel neglected and even competing for her own parent's attention. Shayne will then meet Raul (Dion Ignacio) who will fill the attention she has been looking for from her parents.

 

Will Ruben and his family survive the misfortunes coming their way? Can Ruben keep his family from falling apart? Will Joel be a target by Dindo and Agatha to amass the wealth they have been longing for? What if Joel, the source of happiness of Lorrie and Ruben, becomes the source of the family's grief later on?
