The camera stays on the face of a shocked looking Gloria while the noise of something being eaten can be heard. Suddenly the peeling of a satsuma falls to the table in front of her and the camera cuts to Milo, the man Gloria and Mimi met at a club earlier in the episode, as he says "and that is how one peels a Satsuma, using only the tongue". Gloria struggles to tell him that they have to go upstairs right then, Milo reminds her the night is young but Gloria warns "I am so wet I might slip off my chair" before lunging at him.
