Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Paul McCartney plays himself in another exaggerated "Day In the Life". Included are fictional scenes of the star preparing to film two videos, rehearsing in a loft, playing for the BBC, and even dreaming up a horrific nightmare. A loosely-developed plot about missing master tapes ties all of these events together.
