One normal wednesday morning he went to the bookshop as every morning, but it shows out to be not a normal wednesday morning. In comes the famous film star Anna Scott! He gets quit nervous, she's so beautiful he thinks. Every man thinks that she's the most wonderful woman on earth. She buys a travel book about Turkey, and then she leaves.

As he leaves the café and turns to his left, he bumps into a woman and he spill his orange juice all over her blouse. He tells the woman he's sorry and he starts to wipe of the juice on the blouse. He looks up, it's Anna Scott!
"What are you doing?" She says angrily. "Oh... I'm really sorry" William says. He said that she could come with him, to his house, just across the street. She follows him, trough the door and right upstairs and then in to the toilet and closes the door. It's a mess in the house, with old pizza, clothes everywhere and dirty dishes. He starts to clean up a little, and then he hear steps down the stairs. Anna Scott comes down with new clothes, a black top and a skirt.

And then Spike comes in, walking right past them. "Oh William, I have something to say! You are never going to believe me" William doesn't think about Spike, all he can think of is Anna Scott, standing in his doorway. She says goodbye again, but this time, she kisses him. He can feel the softness of her skin, he can feel the smell of her hair. Then she lightly touches his hand, and the leaves. On the evening, William and Spike watches some movies.
