Mike stands outside the LUST club, hesitating. She texted him where she was, that meant she wanted him to come, right?
But he's not sure. He's all turned around, all confused about her. He wants to see her, wants to charge in and grab her and kiss her. But what if she's with her work colleagues? What if he messes everything up for her?
He turns to leave, then turns back to the club. Then he turns to leave again. Just as he's about to walk away, he sees someone he recognises — Abby's gross old boss, Tom. He walks up to the entry, says something to the doorman, and Mike is shocked to see they let Tom in. Normally that type of guy would have no chance at a club like this.
Something seems off. Mike follows Tom inside.
The club is just as Mike remembered — bathed in red light, pumping music, unbelievably attractive clientele. But this time it's not fun. It's not sexy. All he wants is to find Abby.
He follows Tom, who weaves through the club with purpose. He walks up to the VIP lounge and they take one look at him — and let him in. Now Mike knows there's definitely something weird going on.
Mike follows him — and the bouncer puts the rope down.
"You're not on the list," the bouncer says.
"Look at me, man," Mike says.
"I'm looking, I'm not impressed."
"You let that guy in."
"He's on the list."
"What type of list?"
"The type you're not on."
Mike realises he's getting nowhere. He'll have to find another way in.
