Young man in big city is having money troubles. Bets with a guy in his building to try and make some extra cash, and loses. He can't pay, so instead agrees to touch it. He can't believe how gross it is, but he actually does it, and holding a man in his hands makes him feel really weird, but he just puts it out of his mind as something he had no choice in doing. That also means he can place another bet. And lose. This is the beginning of a slippery slope, and Patrick finds himself falling into a world in which he is sexualised by men, and succumbs to the power they have over him.
