I have never liked my wife's boss, for one thing, he's arrogant, and I've always thought he just wanted to get into Grace's pants. As for my wife, she doesn't see this and just thinks Mr. Johnson is the best boss ever. Well, you can imagine my thoughts when she told me he had invited us to dinner and a show downtown. In the interest of keeping peace in the family, I held my tongue and we showed up with smiles on both of our faces.
Through dinner, my presence was barely noticed as Grace and he talked shop most of the time. The after dinner show was a new hypnotist in town and Johnson told us he was an old friend and he was trying to help him get his new act started. Before the show, Johnson took us backstage to introduce us to Raydon the Magnificent and even though his name sounded a little smarmy, he seemed to be a nice guy. As show time, neared Grace and I headed for our table and her boss stayed to talk a little more with the hypnotist. When he came out to our table, he told us he had volunteered Grace and me to be hypnotized and when I began to protest he told me to relax a person under the influence of hypnosis will not do anything against their will.
Raydon proved he had better talent than his name would imply and the show was a winner. My wife and I were hypnotized successfully and although I have no Idea, what antics he put us through when he brought back out, the audience was howling with laughter. Raydon told us on stage that in appreciation of our being such good sports he would buy us a bottle of champagne. It was delivered, our glasses filled, and as we clinked our glasses in a toast, I noticed the audience laughing. After only one glass of champagne, I found myself very tipsy and I had a tough time even walking as we left the club. I heard Mr. Johnson's offer to Grace that we could go to his nearby apartment to wait for me to sober up and then we could go home.
Once in his apartment he put me in a chair and I sat there in a drunken stupor. He went to my wife and as he looked her in the eye, he said something to her. I have no idea what he said but she suddenly became very receptive to his advances. When he kissed her, she returned his kisses with ardor and it was as if I was not in the room as he took advantages of her. He slid the top of her gown off exposing her bra and as she automatically reached around behind to unclasp it, he turned to me and gave me an evil smile.
