Deception Page #3

- But...

- What's wrong?

- Are you not attracted to me?

- Oh, you're beautiful.

It's just you called me

and I came here but I don't...

- You don't?

I'm not too sure

what's going on.

You're not too sure

what's going on?

Sit down. Sit down.

- Hello.

- Hey, you're up early.

- Hey. How's London?

Rainy. So you got

mine, I got yours.

Yeah, I must've

grabbed it at lunch...

before you left.

- No big deal. I already

had my work calls...

forwarded here. - Oh, alright.

- So, did I get any calls?

- Yes, you did.

- And?

- Well...

- What the hell was that?

I knew it. You met

up with someone.

- I thought you

would call me back.

Oh, spare me. I

woulda done the same.

- So how was it?

It was really amazing,

actually. She...

Sh*t. I'll call you

later. The want me...

in a meeting. I wand

to hear all about it.

- Alright.

As for my phone,

feel free to use it.

Okay. Thanks.

Yes?

Hello. Uh...

- Yes?

- Are you free tonight?

- Where?

- Where, right.

- The Dylan Hotel.

- Perhaps The Park Avenue.

In the bar, half past eleven.

If you are who you

don't seem to be,

you're late.

- Excuse me?

- Are you?

Late, or who I'm

not supposed to be?

Either.

Yes, I am late,

and I am who I

don't seem to be.

Alright, then.

- Could you put this

on the room, please?

Yes, ma'am.

I don't have a room.

You're rather new to

this, aren't you?

The initiator is

responsible for the room.

That's one of the rules.

- Oh. So I should...

- Precisely.

Oh. Excuse me.

Frankly, I'm surprised whoever...

sponsored you didn't

explain more.

Downstairs, you

talked about a rule.

Are there others?

No rough stuff. If

that's your thing,

take it elsewhere.

- No business

talk, and no names.

Right.

- How did you get into this?

- A friend of mine...

He introduced you to the list...

but failed to

explain the basics?

Well, he had to leave town.

I'm doing something

wrong here, aren't I?

It's not that. You

just strike me...

as something of a stowaway.

If it wasn't for

the $4,000 suit.

I'd say you didn't

belong here at all.

This is us.

Although,

someone obviously

thought you did.

And I'm a sucker

for bashful boys.

Can I ask you something?

- Why do you do this?

For the same reason

that men do it.

The economics of

the arrangement.

Intimacy without intricacy.

I work past midnight

almost every night.

The last dinner I had

that wasn't business...

was about a year ago.

Hey, Wyatt, it's Jonathan.

I haven't heard

from you, but...

I guess...

you must be pretty

swamped over there.

Look, I just wanted

to say thank you.

Wait. Wait. Before we...

The thing is, I know you.

I mean, not 'know

you' exactly.

We met before in
