There’s a guy in the alley below John’s fire escape. He’s been there before but, this time… Well, he’s showing off the anaconda he’s got between his legs and making it pretty darn clear he’d like to come up and visit John. A little peer pressure from a friend on the phone has John hollering his apartment number down to the guy, buzzing him in, and discovering this could be a lot more than just an afternoon’s delight.
