Plot summary
Gara leaves the Philippines and works in Italy, taking jobs as a caregiver, as a pet sitter for Clarissa's dog, and as a household helper for Terry, Andrew's stepmother. She believes in destiny, romance and true love. Andrew, a medical student, is grief-stricken over the end of a recent relationship, practical and unenthusiastic about accepting fate. At a park, Gara sees Andrew looking depressed; a thief grabs his bag, and she chases the thief and gets the bag back, but Andrew has already gone. She looks through his smartphone for contacts to tell them about his belongings. Andrew finds her in Terry's living room and accuses her of being in connivance with the thief. After they argue, they accidentally end up hugging on the couch, and Terry comes in and ends their feud. Gara returns the bag.

Did you know?!Facts and trivia about Imagine You & Me (2016)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- Imagine You and Me is one of only two films ever granted permission to shoot in Verona, Italy, the other being the adaptation of Dan Brown's Angels & Demons. Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza shot a scene there at the statue of Juliet.
- Director Mike Tuviera wanted to make an action-horror film for AlDub, the genre he is best known for, but the production company insisted on a romantic comedy; eight scripts were submitted before one was approved.
- Jasmine Curtis-Smith was sick for the whole Italy shoot of the film, and because her character was a sickly person, the director used her real illness for method acting.
- A lip-sync scene between Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza used Charlie Puth's "One Call Away," but the song was cut from the theatrical release and fans campaigned for the scene to be restored as a director's cut for home media.
