The scene opens with the narrator's description of his wife's behavior. She's been flirting with her husband's assistant, who's also her boss. He's trying to get her to confess, but she's too scared to do so. He tells her to rub her sensitive parts with soap, and then he'll make her come crawling out of her hiding place within a minute. He says that if she doesn't do it, he's going to make her "come like crazy" as a reward.
