A Party, Also Known as an Orgy
 Bruiser / int_28b08686
comment
A Party, Also Known as an Orgy: For something that is ostensibly a work event, the Bruiser magazine masquerade has very heavy sexual overtones, with most of the entertainers dressed in S&M outfits. But considering the magazine seems to be an adult men's magazine similar to Playboy, it's probably within what is considered a work event for those who work at the magazine (especially for Miles Styles' views).

Destination Defenestration: Henry throws Janine out of a window: using a chair to smash the glass first. The extension cord he wraps around her neck ensures that she never reaches the ground.

comment
Theatre Phantom: Henry becomes one during the company's masquerade. Having organised the masquerade, he attends dressed as the Phantom of the Opera, incorporating his white mask of doom. As usual, most people fail to notice him. He then skulks around backstage and uses the props he arranged to be present to take his revenge on Miles Styles.
