The festival is over, and Hirono has returned to his hotel. Hirono tells him that the writer who shot him at the festival has written a script for him to perform. He tells Hirono that he will not be able to perform the scene in the script because it is dark and stormy, and that the girl in the picture is dumbstruck. He asks Hirono not to tell anyone about the shooting, as he is afraid that people will be jealous of him. He says that he needs Hirono's help in convincing the girl to accept the script.
