Jude follows Violet and Toby from the restaurant, growing increasingly territorial as he watches them laugh and touch each other. Convinced that Toby drugged her, Jude intervenes and pretends to be her boyfriend. He whispers that if she resists, he will kill Toby and assault her while covered in blood. Shocked into compliance, Violet freezes.

Toby recognizes Jude as the famous hockey player and asks for an autograph instead of defending Violet. When Violet starts to deny their relationship, Jude tightens his grip until she tells Toby that it’s complicated. Using Violet’s lipstick, Jude signs Toby’s shirt. After Toby leaves, they argue, and she psychoanalyzes his rage as masking inner emptiness. He cruelly attacks her about her mother’s abandonment and insists that Violet should have died saving his mother.

Violet tries to leave, but Jude drags her into an alley and pins her against a wall. The confrontation turns sexual. He gropes her, unbuttons her pants, and finds her aroused. After an intense kiss, he demands oral sex.

Violet reflects that she hates Jude but cannot deny the physical attraction between them. She decides to perform oral sex to prove she dislikes it. Jude comments on her lipstick, declaring that she will wear it only for him.
