Als Michael wieder zurück in England ist, taucht auch noch Miles auf, der Fotograf und Dokumentarfilmer aus den Zeiten der Hausbesetzungen im Londoner East End und der Demonstrationen gegen den Vietnamkrieg. Er drängt sich in Michaels Leben und bedroht mit seinen Anspielungen auf Michaels politische Zeit dessen heile Welt. Michael hofft aber, von Miles etwas über Anna zu erfahren. Doch der arbeitet mittlerweile für die Regierung und hat andere Pläne - er erpresst Michael mit seiner radikalen Vergangenheit."
