Teresa, su gran amiga, empieza a sospechar y decide buscar información por su cuenta; pero una mujer que hace demasiadas preguntas no está bien visto. Con ayuda de su hermano decide disfrazarse de hombre y continuar sus pesquisas. Conocerá a Lucas, amigo de su hermano, que no descubrirá su secreto, y la tratará como a otro camarada. Juntos recorrerán la ciudad buscando a Eugenia, y gracias, entre otros, al escritor Mariano José de Larra irán encajando las piezas del puzle.
