Adam's agent, Sophia, is thrilled to see him today. Getting the temporary role on "For Whom the Bell Tolls" was just the beginning. He's been on the show for only week & has hardly even begun to have lines, but already his character generating a ton of fan mail. Now Sophia is starting to get calls for him.

"If we can get you enough exposure in the tabloids & on TV, we can even get you a movie role one day," she promises enthusiastically.

"But listen to me, Adam, this is very important. You know that if you want to be a star, your image is everything. I'm trying to get you romantic lead roles, you are definitely the 'lover' type. That means you are in the closet, you understand? And more than in the closet, I want to see you out & dating female stars. I don't care how you arrange it, but I want to see pictures of you with famous actresses in the tabloids all the time, I want your affairs talked about on the gossip shows," she says. "I understand about staying in the closet, Sophia, but I can't be out dating girls: I'm married. To Steve," Adam answers, not liking this at all. He had hoped he'd put some things behind him when he stepped up this next rung of the fame ladder. Sophia rolls her eyes at him, "Look, it's just the way it is. You can't just be in the closet, Adam, you're young & good looking, and you are romantic lead, you need to be seen publicly as a lover, and that means you need to have a girl on your arm, preferably a famous, attractive girl, everywhere you go."

Sophia drags him out to lunch. The Marrakesh Lounge has an awesome exotic buffet & bar, and the spa is very swank & luxurious. But Sophia has even better news for him: his role on "For Whom the Bell Tolls" has made him 'VI' enough to get into the 'VIP' rooms: she talked to the club owners this morning & they are delighted to welcome Adam in. Adam has always longed to go inside those special locked rooms, he's heard wild stories of the celebrity parties, going on all night...

While he & Sophia talk, Adam is recognized by a FWBT fan, who hovers around him, staring. He gets this a lot now. And it's only been a week. He wonders how it is going to be next week when he has a sex scene with the gorgeous married surgeon his character is just flirting with now.....

But before Adam can run off & check out the VIP rooms, he has to lunch with Sophia out here in the regular world.

Being an entertainer means being able to entertain anywhere you can. This place has a stage set up for it, so Adam goes for it.
