If it's your first trip, I'm not sure there's a lot of value in going to another city outside Tokyo - Tokyo itself is huge and extremely varied, and you're not going to see more than a fraction of what the city has to offer in seven days. There are a ton of side trips you can take out of town - Mount Takao is a good one; Hakone is great for hot springs and exploring the countryside; Nikko has stunning scenery and ancient temples; Kawaguchiko has roller-coasters, hikes and brilliant views of Fuji; Kawagoe is a quaint little town which retains its old buildings and layout - all of these are within an hour or two of Tokyo. Do a couple of those instead of going to another city and you'll save quite a lot of money on the rail pass.
If you really insist on going to another city, don't bother with Osaka (it's got a distinct culture from Tokyo but not distinct enough that you'll notice in a two-day whirlwind visit; physically, it's just mini-Tokyo). Try Kyoto (smaller, surrounded by mountains, great temples etc., but crammed with tourists at all times) or, for something a little off the beaten track, Kanazawa (recently linked to Tokyo by bullet train, much more chilled out than Kyoto but with lots of beautiful buildings and scenery).

Maybe she'll meet Bill Murray and fall in love.

Did she?
