She got him to have you kidnapped, and planned to have a few guys have their way with you, all while recording it. She wants to use the video to blackmail you. Apparently, she wants you to do something for her son."

Calliope feigned a moment of realization. "Oh, right, I forgot to give you guys a good time!"
