Team of steel erectors has been redeployed to the new construction activity in a small town where the steel mill was being built. The head of the squad Nicholay Pasechnik, albeit shockworker of Socialist Labour, is, however, reputed to be a darling of the women and humorist. The welder Katerina Petrashen', working on the construction site as well, is to be considered by a great many of people as a pretty girl of easy virtue: she smokes (at the time, it was the height of immorality!), not a member of the Komsomol, likes party-coloured dresses and behaves provocatively.
