Synopsis
Carlos López, a cafe violinist who preys upon married women, saves Narita from a suicide attempt on his way to work; later, at the cafe, having left the girl at his home, he engages in a flirtation with Paulina Castra but is disturbed by the appearance of Señor Vallejo with his wife, also enamored of Carlos. After beating the insolent Ortega, he and Paulina retire to his home, but she leaves, angered by the presence of Narita. Driven from the house, Narita threatens another suicide attempt; Carlos prevails upon her to postpone it for a year, proposing a marriage that would involve an insurance policy, payments from which would finance his violin studies; and she accepts the offer. While Rosa Vallejo awaits Carlos in Paris, her husband arrives to see him, but Narita manages to avert a disaster by protecting her husband from Ortega; ultimately, there is a confrontation in which Ortega is killed and Carlos arrested; but he escapes jail and again saves Narita from suicide, assuring her of his love.
