[After Albert Preston’s death]

After hanging up with his father, Peter got into his car and headed home.

Peter had maintained a strictly physical consensual relationship for years. As the music ended, Peter excused himself, claiming he needed to use the restroom. Instead of returning to Mary, he left the hotel and ended up at his apartment with Katherine. There,

Peter woke up slowly, disoriented. Catherine had already gotten up and gone to the kitchen for water. As she passed through the living room, she spotted a small black box on the floor something that had fallen from Peter’s pocket in their haste the night before.
