Dans l'appartement au-dessus de chez eux emménage Nicole qui sort d'une relation très difficile avec Klaus. Jean l'attire dans ses bras mais tombe profondément amoureux d'elle. Elle le prévient néanmoins que Klaus cherche à le tuer, à la demande d'un inconnu. Après un échec sur la Riviera, Klaus fait venir Jean dans l'appartement de Nicole et au cours d'une lutte, finit par le poignarder. Il n'a fait qu'exécuter la demande des deux femmes, complices.
