Nell'estate del 1964 Guy fa il commesso presso il negozio di elettrodomestici del padre, in Pennsylvania. Ma di notte si siede alla batteria e comincia a suonare musica jazz. Una rock band locale, cui è mancato il batterista, gli chiede di sostituirlo. Passa un mese e "The Wonders", fanno ormai parte del firmamento del rock.
