She then tells Stephen to resurrect the deal with Rufus and she’ll give him 15% commission and a permanent contract.  At Rufus’s hotel, he makes it clear he’s not interested but Stephen begs him to reconsider. Rufus then hands Stephen a vial of LSD and heads to the bathroom where he snorts a line of coke and suddenly collapses, clutching his chest.

As the paramedics wheel Rufus out, Stephen practices Rufus’s signature on the unsigned contract when he hears a knock at the door. A sex worker called Candice barges her way in and demands her money. Will this give Stephen an idea?
