Charming but unreliable, Roberto has earned his nickname "El Suavecito" through his constant flirtations and the easy way he moves through life, even when it causes pain to his devoted aging mother and his beautiful neighbor Lupita, who resists his overtures in the hopes he can learn to settle down and behave. When Lupita gains a steady and honest suitor in Carlos, El Suavecito can't resist trying to foul his chances with the help of the unscrupulous gambler "El Nene"--but it all goes badly wrong. This neglected noir asks whether a morally impoverished gangster is capable of redemption.

When the pregnant Esther gets some bad news from her doctor, he advises her to visit a clinic in Mexico City, so she enlists husband Antonio to drive her there at once, along with her brother Luis. As soon as the men drop her off at the hospital, they hit a local nightclub and live it up, and as they are leaving the club in the company of a sexy dancer, they get thoroughly robbed: the criminals even steal the poor victims' clothes! Taken in to the police station and documented along the way, their photograph turns up in the paper the next day, which Esther of course sees. The men will have a lot to explain when they arrive at the clinic to pick up Esther.
