Soledad enters a women reformatory led by modest nuns who look constantly for the welfare of their girls. These include the Sister Consolación, a humorous and cheerful nun who uses a little disconcerting methods to teach but very useful for the girls, to try to forget their past and prepare for a better future. Soledad takes confidence quickly and said she hopes a son of Fernando, a womanizing Andalusian young gentleman very attractive, which coincidentally, the Sister knows.
