There, in his messy studio apartment he is visited by a talent agent named Tom Drummond, who wants to represent Chaz.

Everything seems to be going well until he is at a party and is approached by Paige. Chaz still loves his ex-wife but she has moved on and breaks his heart again. While Chaz is leaving the party he hears a cry for help and saves a woman from being raped by a well dressed man.
