- After winning a trip to Hollywood, office typist Lolita Álvarez travels to the city of dreams on a steamship in the company of her aunt Gertrudis. During the trip, she meets and falls for childish bank employee, whom she mistakes for a prince, just as she impersonates a well-traveled socialite.
- Lolita Álvarez, a shy, day-dreaming typist in a large European bank, enters a newspaper contest and wins a trip for two to Hollywood. Meanwhile, Alberto Guzmán, an executive in the same bank, is assigned by the bank's director, Don Pedro, to go to New York on business. Although they work for the same bank, Lolita and Alberto have never met, but soon they are both on board an ocean liner bound for New York. Lolita is accompanied by her maiden aunt, Gertrudis, while colleague Feliciano Roncallo travels with Alberto. Before dinner on the first night out, Lolita contrives to be seated at a table next to one occupied by a prince, but the seating arrangements are changed and Alberto and Feliciano are seated at the prince's table. Lolita assumes Alberto is the prince and the two couples flirt. Later, Lolita pretends to be a widely-traveled millionairess to impress Alberto, while Gertrudis similarly affects Feliciano, who is posing as the "prince's" private secretary. After Lolita and Alberto fall in love, she becomes distraught because she is not what he thinks she is and avoids him for the rest of the voyage. By the time the ship arrives in New York, Gertrudis and Feliciano have also fallen in love, but Alberto cannot understand why Lolita has abandoned him. While Alberto and Feliciano conduct the bank's business in New York, Lolita and Gertrudis journey on to Hollywood. One month later, when the two couples are back in Europe, Lolita is telling her typist friends about her ill-fated ship-board romance when she is summoned to the director's office. Don Pedro asks her to assist his wife, Doña Mercedes, the following day, with the preparation of invitations for a wedding anniversary party, then asks her to deliver a document to Sr. Guzmán's office. Lolita is stunned to encounter her "prince" there, then runs off as a colleague explains to an equally surprised Alberto that Lolita is a bank employee. The next day, Lolita pours out her heart to Doña Mercedes, who secretly arranges with her husband to invite both couples to their party where all the misunderstandings are resolved and Lolita and Alberto, Francisco and Gertrudis reunite.
