action

Dan Hanson and Lorie Bryer are an unequal couple. Their different moral and political attitudes, however, are their capital in their pro-and-con television show "He said, she said". A solid controversy during the live broadcast triggers a review of their previous life and work together.

From Dan's point of view, the beginning of their work together for a newspaper is shown. One day you are set up as competing columnists on the same topic, the better article is to be published. However, the boss has both articles printed, which is permanently adopted due to the positive response from the readership. Then you see Dan's version of how they fell in love and later how they decide to move in together. In the present, Lorie has thrown me out of the shared apartment.

Jump back to the TV show: Now Lory's point of view is described. The argument on the show apparently resulted from Dan's refusal to consider marriage. The beginnings of the two, their professional competition, their love and their common everyday life look different in Lories Version, so that some revelations and different perceptions of one and the same situation come to light.

When it looks, back in the present, as if Dan would give in to soliciting his old love Linda, he and Lorie have to do one last show. Independently of one another, they record their statements in which one agrees with the other's opinion. So they settle their differences and ultimately decide on the possibility of a further future together.
