To our immediate left, perhaps seven feet from the stairs, is a long wood bar.

with three well-dressed bartenders behind it making various drinks.

To our right, filling this large balcony area, are a myriad of high-chance games, poker tables, craps tables, a variety of card games, each with their respective dealers, and security.

Speaking of security, there's a heavyset goon to your left watching the front door.

Let's keep moving.

This area is large but overlooks the main floor below.

Past the black wrought iron balcony railing is a stage and a dinner table area, almost theater-like, overlooking this smoke-filled lower level, where patrons eat and watch the live music.

Tonight there's a three-piece band that seems to be playing some standard jazz.

How do we get down?

To our left.

There's a circular metal staircase past the bar here that connects this upper level with the lower.

And on the main dinner floor below, I... I see a short hallway that leads to the left.

That must lead to Edwin's office.

Here, let's go.

The men and women here are happily mingling.

The whole club is alive with their youthful energy and style.

Every man I see is wearing a tuxedo and the women are in dresses.

Envious?

Oh, lie.

A bit.
