The party’s atmosphere is suffocatingly dull. Grayson, dragged here by his mother’s insistence, endures the horrid music and cold, distasteful fare with quiet disdain. He observes his youngest brother, Xavier, boasting to an older man, while Jameson, the middle brother, sneaks a bottle of tequila—a familiar sight for Grayson, who rolls his eyes at his sibling’s ongoing addiction. Seeking escape from the uptight crowd, Grayson spots an open door leading outside. He slips away, wandering down the patio to a secluded garden enclosed by long hedges, finally finding a moment of solitude.
