他向她们保证很快就会离开,于是莱克西和妮可被“慷慨地”允许重新穿好衣服,然后被绑着嘴巴,并排坐在地板上,看着那个画像收藏家进行最后的“盗窃”。虽然原本对她来说充满希望的一天开始后却急转直下,但意志坚定的莱克西拒绝逆来顺受,于是两个赤脚的女友蜷缩着身子,拼命挣扎。绳结始终无法解开,妮可便开始在地板上挪动,朝家门口走去,莱克西紧随其后;到达门口后,妮可向后躺下,抬起双腿,用脚趾拉扯门把手。然而,门还没打开,恼怒的男人就插了进来,他让失望的两人靠在卧室门上,并告诉她们,如果试图逃跑,她们就会被重新绑回卧室,以此来确保她们会被留在屋里。Phone in hand, Lexi Lore sat on a couch next to the portrait she'd just won at an auction and boasted to a friend about how she'd outbid an unpleasant man who'd been angered by her victory. When she was finished, Lexi called out to her girlfriend, Nicole Nichols, requesting her to come and view the impressive painting of an ancient Greek prophetess. Nicole soon appeared but Lexi was shocked to see that the innocent blonde's wrists were tied behind her back and her lips sealed by tape, a situation quickly explained by a voice she recognized as belonging to the auction rival she'd defeated. Claiming that he'd been deprived of the painting he deserved by a crooked deal between Lexi and the auctioneer, the intruder informed her that he'd come to take it and would search her home for other works of art she undoubtedly owned, a mission he began once both lovely housemates sat bound and gagged next to each other. They struggled vigorously in the unexpected restraint until Lexi noticed her phone under a pillow and grasped it with the intent to tap the numbers for help. Before she could succeed, their nemesis interfered by taking the phone and moving them apart; moments later, Nicole and Lexi edged back closer to cooperate at trying to free their wrists, a failed venture that left them in bondage. Although she was indignant about losing the portrait, Lexi hoped that the volatile character would swiftly leave the house but discovered that he was in no hurry to end his quest.
Because the vengeful man wouldn't be leaving anytime soon, he decided that keeping the girlfriends separated would prevent future cooperative attempts to free themselves.
They were promised that he'd soon be leaving so Lexi and Nicole were generously allowed to reclothe themselves before they sat bound and tape-gagged next to each other on the floor while the portrait-collector made his final thefts. Although the day that had begun positively for her was trending in the opposite direction, strong-willed Lexi refused to meekly accept her restraint so both barefoot girlfriends writhed strenuously as they curled-up on their hips. When the knots failed to loosen, Nicole began to edge across the floor toward their home's front door with Lexi following; after she reached the doorway, Nicole lay back, raised her legs and tugged at the doorknob with her toes. Before the door opened, however, the annoyed man intervened and assured that they would remain in the house by seating the disappointed women against a bedroom door, then informing them that the escape attempt would result in a return to bondage in the bedroom.
