Line 33:
Walter meets Nadia, finding her beautiful, sweet, and charming, but her obsessive ex-boyfriend David attacks Walter out of jealousy. After evading David, Walter takes Nadia to a recording studio to listen to his friend play guitar. David tells Nadia that he gave up his dreams of being an aspiring musician for the security of a steady job. Despite the warnings, he gives Nadia some champagne to relax. At the celebratory dinner with Yakamoto, Nadia quickly loses her inhibitions and begins acting impulsively, calling out Walter's colleague for attempting to seduce her, mocking a waiter for his condescending attitude, and inadvertently spraying Walter's boss with champagne. Her actions draw the ire of Yakamoto who expects women to be quiet and subservient. After Nadia convinces Yakamoto's meek wife to divorce him and take half his assets, the deal with Walter's employer collapses and he is fired.
After leaving the dinner, David repeatedly stalks and attacks the pair. Upset at the encounters, Nadia asks Walter to stop at a garage so she can use the bathroom but she runs off to a disco. Walter follows and the pair reconcile while dancing together. David again finds them and instigates a bar brawl, during which Walter and Nadia escape. Nadia requests to be taken to a friend's party but Walter insists on taking her to a home where she is currently staying. Arriving at the address Nadia provided, the house is towed away on the back of a truck and Walter's car is stripped of parts while he is distracted. He is then accosted by a female gang that coneals a gun inside his car when the police arrive who, in turn, force David to undertake a sobriety test. Nadia begins to sober up and expresses her regret before David attacks them again.
The following morning, Ted tells Walter that Nadia paid his $10,000 bail. Walter meets with Nadia, both heavily hungover, and tells her he never wants to see her again. Nadia reminds Walter that he gave her alcohol despite being warned and laments that she thought he was someone with whom she could fall in love, having initially found him sweet and generous. Feeling guilty about the trouble she caused Walter, Nadia asks David, a defense lawyer, to represent him. David accepts in exchange for Nadia agreeing to marry him, to her disgust. David
Susie gives Walter a note from Nadia in which she says she will miss him and asks that he start playing the guitar again. Walter injects a box of chocolates with brandy and sends them to Nadia at David's parents' mansion, where the wedding will take place. Nadia unwittingly eats the alcoholic chocolates, becomes inebriated, and disrupts the wedding, refusing to marry David because she is in love with someone else. Walter arrives and he and Nadia kiss, to the attendees' joy and David's ire.
