The Armitages guests seemed very interested in Chris. They wanted to know about his strength, body, looks, and performance in both sports and in the bedroom. There was one man Jim Hudson (Stephen Root) in particular that was very interested in Chris. Hudson was a blind man who loved art just as much as Chris did; if not more. He wasn't interested in Chris’ looks or his ability to play sports, he was most interested in the way Chris saw art. They sat and talked about art and Hudson was able to sit and get to know Chris because Chris felt comfortable. Later on Chris goes off with Rose to take a walk to distract him from the “Bingo” game that was about to begin.

The highest bidder gets to have a piece of their brain put into Chris’s so that can take over the body. The way the camera and the lighting of of the auction scene is adjusted really makes it feel like we are a part of it. It also makes it seem more suspenseful of what's going to happen
