Gino tells Lori one day ( she no longer goes to school) that a friend of his is going through a bad time and Gino wants her to be "nice" to him. He has a lot of money, and they could use it. Lori is stunned, she has had sex with men in the hope that they would hire her for a shoot, and most did. Gino, of course,kept the money.She never went to bed with someone just for money.She refuses, and Gino becomes very threatening. Through her stoned haze, Lori begins to realize how dependent she is on Gino, she becomes a little afraid of him, and doesn't want to argue. She agrees to meet the guy. The way Gino treats her, she senses that she won't have a cchoice when this guy comes over. When he does come over, he is cute, so she takes him to bed to please Gino, hoping this will be the only time.
The next morning, Gino tells her how much she helped his friend and how he really appreciates what she did. The next few days, her relationship to Gino is back to normal and then Gino brings up another friend who needs "attention". Needless to say she co-operates. Every few days, almost on schedule, Gino comes up with another friend for Lori to"spend time with".
Something else is going on too. The painkillers Gino has been giving her are now affecting her much more strongly, she likes the trip, but she is starting to wonder if Gino is substituting *****.
