The scene opens with the narrator explaining that he is the one who went to the wrong room at the hotel. He offers to take a bath and change clothes. He then tells the narrator that he has brought a girl back to the hotel, and that she is sleeping "like a log" . The narrator is horrified at the sight of her sleeping like this, and he demands to know why she has no pants on. He tells her that he was won over by her strange habit of sleeping without pants on, and now he wants to know how she managed to sleep like this. He asks her where she is, and she tells him that she has sweated and sweated. She then asks him why he is sleeping next to her, and the narrator explains that he did not do anything wrong. He says that he had trouble jolting some, and so he had to rub the man's skin to make him look proper
