Meanwhile, he meets and has a one-night stand with Marieke (Irene Jacob), who happens to be a Rembrandt expert and who later is hired to evaluate the painting's authenticity. So it's off to Europe to research and paint, but the plans go awry when Marieke declares the painting a fake and Harry runs for his life–with Marieke as a hostage.
