   Summary

   Douglas Quintain, executive producer and spurned lover, wishes he was anywhere other than this wrap party, especially when Thelma arrives on the arm of her fiancé.

   Lester Plum, stand-in for Miss Cheri, doesn't mind that no-one recognises her hard work - she's hardly the only overlooked person in the studio.

   Two lonely souls and a chance encounter. Sometimes a big shot just wants to let loose. Sometimes a girl can be too kind for her own good.
