II.

As the night wears on, some people start dancing to the music. By some people, naturally, we mean a lot of women. Who are then upset that none of the men want to dance, because they need partners. It wasn't the mens' idea for everyone to get up and dance, but there you have it. The women start pulling men in against their will--lovers, brothers, fathers, friends, whoever is pliable enough. Colin is none of these, but he is also recognized as one of the most pliable men in town, so he gets pulled in. After the first dance, though, he glances about and peels away, walking up to Lorne.

"Come on," he says. "If I have to, so do you."
