**Plot Summary:**
Gatsby Welles, an intelligent yet unconventional young man from a wealthy New York family, attends Yardley College, a liberal arts school in upstate New York. Known for his gambling skills, Gatsby accompanies his girlfriend, Ashleigh Enright, a journalism student from Tucson, to Manhattan. While Ashleigh is set to interview renowned independent film director Roland Pollard for her college newspaper, Gatsby plans a romantic getaway, hoping to avoid his parents, who are hosting a gala that evening. His relationship with them is strained.
Ashleigh’s one-hour interview with Pollard takes an unexpected turn when the director invites her to a private screening of his new film, leaving Gatsby disappointed and alone. While wandering through the city, Gatsby encounters a friend who is working on a short film and convinces him to step in for a missing actor in a scene involving a kiss. To his surprise, the actress is Chan Tyrell, the younger sister of a former girlfriend. Their paths cross again when they both attempt to hail the same cab.
Meanwhile, Ashleigh becomes increasingly involved with Pollard, who is grappling with creative struggles, and his screenwriter, Ted Davidoff. This further delays her reunion with Gatsby. Feeling abandoned, Gatsby spends time with Chan, visiting her parents’ apartment, where he plays the piano and sings *“Everything Happens to Me.”* The two bond over their love for New York, agreeing that the city is particularly enchanting on rainy days.
Their day continues at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where Chan admits to having had a crush on Gatsby. A chance meeting with his aunt and uncle at the museum forces Gatsby to attend his parents’ gala later that evening.
