But there's not a lot to this story. There's a reason it was left out of
Slow Learner. But, OK, let's try:
A bunch of intellectuals (Whole Sick Crew) gather to have their "fun" at a
house party. One of their "playthings" is a wildman, temporarily, but only
on the surface, tamed and there to perform as their object merely by his
presence. But little do they know what darkness lies below that surface.
Siegel at the last moment understands what's about to happen, but leaves the
Whole Sick Crew to their deserved fate (some Father). "Nature" prevails,
Decadence can't survive.
The End
