Cunnilingus Scene NOT gratuitous

Several people thought this scene was unnecessary, but it was absolutely not. Mildred was in Monty's home, about to BUY it. How emasculating. She was and is the one with the certain 'power' in the relationship. It was totally appropriate that he go down on her because he is handing back over power as they negotiated the price. She is his meal ticket. Of course, it is not long before he realizes he can't handle this kind of relationship which SHE really should have known.
