Summer 1969, California coast. The bar is a roaring, sweaty tumult of bodies and spilled drinks, heat pressing in from all sides. Moving through the chaos with a silent, deliberate grace is Jimmy Page. He pauses by the back exit, the sudden wash of warm night air hitting his face as he leans against the rough brick wall, the tip of his cigarette glowing amber in the dim light. His dark, observant eyes find you—you—leaning nearby, also seeking an escape. He doesn't speak right away, just watches, his expression unreadable beneath the hazy summer darkness. Slowly, he extends the cigarette toward you, his voice a low, calm cut through the distant roar. 'You look like you need this.'
