Story[]
After Barbie is fired, Barbie gets a phone call from Ken saying that he's breaking up with her. Barbie decides she needs to get away, and she gets a plane to Paris with her dog Sequin. Meanwhile, her friends Grace and Teresa go to confront Ken at Wally's. Raquelle is there with Ken practicing lines for one of her roles, and Ken can't get through to Barbie on his phone because Grace blocked him on Barbie's phone. Raquelle wants him to stop thinking about Barbie and help her with her lines, so she gets out a recorder so she can record Ken's lines and practice when he's not with her.
Teresa and Grace arrive at Wally's and think Ken broke up with Barbie for Raquelle. Ken is glad to see them and asks why he can't get through to Barbie. They are angry with him for breaking up with Barbie over the phone. Ken is confused, but discovers that Raquelle sent Barbie a recording of him breaking up with someone (for her lines) to make her think she and Ken had broken up. Ken requests to see Barbie upon learning from Teresa that she traveled to Paris, so Grace says he needs to make a "grand romantic gesture" to make it up to Barbie. Ken agrees and decides to take the next flight he can get, no matter how long it takes.
On the plane, Ken tries to think of the best grand gesture. The plane is grounded in Pittsburgh and he has no clue when the plane will take off again. He decides he can't stay in a hotel because he needs to get to Paris as quickly as possible. Ken calls Teresa, who tells him he can drive with her cousin. When Ken hangs up so Teresa can text him her cousin's number, he ends up upsetting a noisy and restless little boy sitting next to him by scaring him with a "funny" face. When Ken gets off the plane, he goes with Teresa's cousin to Harrisburg and then gets on a SEPTA Commuter train to Philadelphia. He falls asleep and misses his stop and ends up in New Brunswick, and the last train going to Philadelphia for the night leaves in a minute. Ken runs, but misses the train.
He's getting more stressed, but he's doing it for Barbie. Ken tries to get a cab, but learns that there are none available and it starts to rain. After waiting for the cab from New Brunswick train station to Philadelphia, Ken gets to the airport. He drops his change from the cab on the floor, but when he goes to pick it up, his jeans rip and show his pants. He goes inside the airport, but sees that the ticket line is really long.
Ken finally gets a plane to Paris and gets a cab to Millicent's Fashion House, but almost as soon as they start driving, they get into loads of traffic. The driver goes out to see that he has a flat tire. They have to wait an hour for it to get replace, even though the stubborn driver knows how to, but refuses to, change the tire. Ken reluctantly changes it. He finally gets to Millicent's fashion house and finds Barbie having a successful fashion show. He calls out to her and gets on stage. Ken explains that Raquelle sent the message and that he didn't really break up with her. Ken tells Barbie that he cares about her and not her career.
They say they love each other and kiss in front of everyone, but the Flairies see Ken's ripped jeans and transform his outfit into a white suit. After the show, Ken gets invited with Barbie, Marie-Alecia and Millicent to Lilliana Roxelle's "Black, White and Pink" party. They go to the party in carriages, and at the end, Ken and Barbie kiss again.
