Ben, who works for the city’s most hip music magazine, is “the man” and he knows it … and takes advantage of it big time. People fawn all over him to get their music written up in his magazine and the girls adore him.

To get rid of his heartache he goes into denial and starts hanging out with other girls. He sees Katharina in a bar and tries to make her jealous, but instead makes a complete fool of himself. She is sadly amused but Ben’s new girlfriend isn’t, and suddenly he’s back to playing his scratchy solo album. To top things off, Ben makes a stupid mistake and gets himself fired: ripping off an old Beatle’s review, he oversees one “John Lennon” in the text. Ben pulls ever more foolish stunts to get Katharina back, but she’s not buying it. Off to London for six months, she goes to Ben’s apartment to say goodbye.
