Alex Fletcher, once a member of British 80s supergroup PoP!, is now a washed-up pop star relegated to occasional performances at reunions and state fairs.

During an unsuccessful composing session with a pretentious lyricist, Alex discovers that Sophie, the young woman hired to water his plants, has a talent for writing lyrics.

Sophie in turn confides that she abandoned writing after a failed romance with her English professor Sloan Cates, and that she was the basis for the vapid main character in his best-selling novel.
