Thanks.

Im not sure. She kind of used him in a sexual way to get back at her boyfriend and blackmail his family.

I guess she meant that he was sort of her personal sex toy.

reply

Probably because when she went to have sex with him he couldn't get it up, either he is actually gay or from all the drugs

She called him Mr. Gimp before any of the events of the party took place. Justin calls him crippled at one point, because he is so socially awkward. Gimp means crippled in some way. So I took the nickname to mean he is socially crippled.

"Ich lüge" is German for "I'm lying".

Mr. Gimp is a reference to men who wear gimp suits, a.k.a. bondage suits, as part of a sexual fetish for being dominated by men or women. Men who wear gimp suits genuinely tend to want to play a submissive role in sex and to be dominated and humiliated by their sex partners. If you know what happens in the end then you will know how he was "ordered" to do something humiliating and he did it. She had him figured out to a "T". Here's more info on gimp suits:

At the school I went to, we often called people gimps, meaning anything from idiots, to socially awkward;
it was a bit posh and had people with similar backgrounds to those in the film.
This might not be the correct explanation but that's the way I took it to mean
