After making a few friends and finding housing, Clifford visits the seedy Kit Kat Club and meets an English singer, Sally Bowles. The writer and singer soon fall in love. Meanwhile, Clifford's elderly landlord, Fräulein Schneider, gets engaged to a Jewish greengrocer, Herr Schultz - not an easy decision given the increasing influence of the Nazis. Soon, Clifford discovers that he has been inadvertently helping the Nazis by delivering packages to Paris for a German friend of his, Ernst Ludwig.
