Question about one of the Chap's Sin


There is a part at the Debutante Ball when one of the dudes who is being "blackmailed" by Ashby, is getting trashed and Ashby walks out with the drunk dude's daughter and they say something about that being his payback or something ...

what was that all about??

reply

yeah, i wondered abt this, too, & just posted my question in another thread. since the camera lingered & focused so obviously on her pulling up/on her glove, i wondered if that was supposed to mean that they had been up in his room having sex (or maybe, her 'servicing' him). i thot maybe he was supposedly having sex w/these men's wives/daughters, as part of his blackmail or whatever?

Yes, that is what was happening.

They all had to do whatever Ashbury wanted. Besides being forced to repeat the original shameful activity, the members had to sneak around taking photos, etc. to keep Ashbury's blackmail schemes going against the other members. Probably the father had been coerced into introducing his daughter to Ashbury and then had to sit by and watch as Ashbury seduced her.
