When their dad dies on his 55th birthday, Beverley Hills sisters Mary and Nora find themselves destitute, forced by a grasping sister-in-law to move in with their aunt in East L.A. Younger sister Mary is mortified, without Spanish, and scared of the vatos. Her sister convinces her to finish college, where she promptly decides that one of her T.A.s will be her ticket back to Rodeo Drive. Elder sister Nora, a law student, gets a job as a legal intern with Edward--brother of the grasping sister-in-law--as her supervisor. Slowly, the sisters realize what a rich place the barrio is, while enduring the bruises of the oldest contact sport--love
