Premise

El Borras is a taxi driver who falls in love with La Pecas. Not knowing that her shiftless family is waiting for someone to support them, Borras gladly marries her. Doña Chole, Pecas' mother, reveals the truth and forces Borras to provide for the whole family; Borras begins to detest her and calls her "La Tarantula". Borras relies on the help of his mustached friend, El Bigotón, who instantly becomes enamored of Doña Chole. El Comanche, the policeman who issues Borras' traffic citations, also falls in love with Doña Chole. The family lives in Colonia Peralvillo, a poor Mexico City neighborhood.
