At the same time, he is declared dead by mistake in a local newspaper, and while trying to deny the fateful news, he finds out that his eternal rival Tommy Wolf - who is now a star abroad - has stolen a song from him. He then decides to confront him and claim the rights to the hit that he stole from him. After attempts, threats and revealed secrets, he leaves his miserable life in the port to go live in the South, where he will have a quiet life and a stable job for the first time.
