It's spring of 1998 in Paris, France. A married American couple walks the streets, taking

in Paris at night. At first glance, they look like any other couple enjoying a getaway

in the city of lights. But they're not average tourists. The woman is an actress who has

been named one of TV sexiest women. She's become an obsession of science fiction fans all over

the world. The husband is an investment banker, believed to be worth between $35 and $95 million.

The husband takes his wife by the arm and leaves her down a dark side street. Where are we going,

Jack? That's a surprise. As he leads her further away from the main thoroughfare, the city lights of

Paris begin to fade. Are you sure you know where you're going? Yeah, we'll be there soon. They arrive

at the entrance of an avant-garde nightclub. Nothing outside hints at what lies on the other side of the door.

But as the couple steps inside, the woman's eyes flash red. She's angry, but not surprised.

Promise me this was out of your system, Jack. Oh, come on. It's not being at a club that bothers her.

It's the scores of people having sex inside. And this isn't the first time her husband had brought

her to one of these places. It's happened twice before, earlier in the spring in New Orleans

in New York. She can still see the image of the soiled mattresses on the floor. This place is

no better. She feels disgusted. When she starts for the door, her husband stops her. Don't get

upset. You promise me in New York you would never do this to me again. The New York club had cages

hanging from the ceiling and whips on the wall. That was bad enough, but it was her husband's request

that bothered her most. He wanted to sleep with her in front of strangers. When she refused and

stormed out, he apologized. Promise it would never happen again. But it has. Now she feels like

she might be sick. She breaks down in tears. You lied to me. Don't cry. It's not a turn-on when you cry.

She pushes through the door of the club and back into the Paris night.

She tries to catch her breath as he follows her outside. Look, look, I'm sorry.
