Show plot summary (may contain spoilers)
Tenso (Adrián Suar) doesn't know how to deal with his wife Tana (Valeria Bertuccelli) or how to tell her that he wants to separate because her terrible temper has made the relationship a completely mess. She lives in a constant bad mood: if she isn't complaining about the weather, it's the government, the neighbors, teenagers...anything, everything. Tenso's friend Carlos suggests that he invert the situation and cause Tana to leave him; when Tenso wonders how, Carlos suggests that he hire Cuervo Flores (Gabriel Goity), an irresistible old seducer who will charm his wife until she falls in love with him. Has Tenso finally found the solution to his problem?
