A spoiled man child,son of a Mexican billionaire,is wasting his days away,doing nothing. He doesn’t even get his own food. One day,after a fight with an employee who refuses to get him a fruit because her job was to clean the boat not bring him food,he fires her and throws her in the water with her tools,like the vacuum cleaner which obviously she has to replace.
He is very inconsiderate of people’s feelings,their status,if they can pay for something or not,or if they have the free time he has. He judges people based on their looks,and tells them to their face everything he thinks of them.
The same night,he falls overboard. He wakes up on the beach with no memory of who he is. In the hospital,he’s just as annoying, offending anyone who helps him in any way. His sister,seeing this,and wanting to be the head of the company she rules,leaves him there.
The friend of the woman he mistreated convinces her to lie to him she is his wife to get her vengeance for what he did to her. This leads to a series of funny events,and to the growth of the character who saw people as almost objects who lived only to serve him.
The woman has 3 daughters who grow attach to him,as he turns out to be a great father.
I personally understood the sister. He was an awful person. She was the one who liked working at the company,she had the skills,and she deserved to be in charge. Her father wanted the son to be in charge,the son who had no idea how to run a company,and had no interest in running a company,as he wanted to live doing nothing,just fornicating. I love the idea of putting in charge someone who has no idea how things work!Just kidding.
The acting was good,I liked the actor,he played quite a few of these kind of roles,of the awful,kept man.
The soundtrack was so and so, at times it made me laugh,as they played what I consider a funny song,whenever they showed his scheming sister!
