Hiding behind a pillar at 2:00 a.m., Wen comes face-to-face with the scarlet-haired, elven-faced embodiment of his divergent opposite'Peter Panachek, the flighty, live-for-today painter, singer, and leader of the rock group the Lost Boys.

Then his bosses blow the campaign for their biggest client and Wen gets a chance to shine'but only if he can find the artist who painted a wild, glorious wall of graffiti in the subway.
