In order to pay his debts, Compayito (Edson Zúñiga), a former sports commentator, is chased by loan sharks. While trying to flee, Compayito is run over by Zacarías Fernández (Raúl Araiza), who lost all his money trying to rescue companies from bankruptcy and now lives with his family at his father's house. Compayito is allowed to stay at the Fernández house, and Zacarías sees this as an opportunity to fix his financial problems. Zacarías believes that if he can restore Compayito's fame, he will benefit from his success. However, Compayito will pretend he is still injured to avoid being caught by his creditors.
