Valentin was a popular women-loving bachelor until one woman came along who was able to turn all his affections to her alone. After disappearing out of the picture for a while, she arrives on his doorstep with a baby daughter, Maggie, who she claims is his. She tricks him into giving her money to pay for her taxi while he holds Maggie, but subsequently disappears again leaving Valentin facing the biggest challenge of his life. Knowing nothing about fatherhood, he does his best to raise Maggie as well as he can, and the pair become thick as thieves moving from Acapulco to Hollywood so he can get a job as a professional stuntman and have a hope at finding where Maggie's mother is. However, when they do find her, Valentin faces losing his daughter (and most loyal friend) who has become everything he lives for.
