Class differences in Mexican society are expressed in the life and behavior of a young couple member of the burgoisie that will soon become parents, in contrast to their servant and the fatal consequences she suffers due to an unwanted pregnancy.

Mariano works as chief driller on an oil platform in Campeche 14 days a month. However, he is obsessed with the idea that his wife Gloria is cheating on him while he is away. Therefore, time and again he asks her to stop working and get pregnant for the second time. However, Gloria refuses to be financially dependent on her husband. The couple's conflicts become more acute when engineer Becker, Gloria's former lover, starts working again in the offices where she works.
