Summary

A newspaper article describes a raid on a sado-masochistic bar, which resulted in the arrest of the bar’s owner, and of the young man who was the victim in a sado-masochistic show – Timmy Purvis. The article also comments on how the aggressor in the show disappeared. That aggressor, narration reveals, was Randy Dildough, who had had what narration suggests was the greatest sexual experience of his adult life to date as part of the show. As Randy relives the excitement (which started, for him, as he and Timmy escaped the fire), Randy realizes that for him, Timmy is now “the one,” and that he has to find him.

Boo Boo Bronstein reconsiders his self-kidnapping plan, but he realizes it is full of holes, and concocts a new plan to get his father’s money – blackmail.
