This is the first time Basil has gone out in a really long time. The first he's actually shown his face after the accident. He was so nervous, his hands nervously played with his pants under the table as he waited for his date.

People looked at him and he didn't like it. He felt as though everyone was staring at him. As if everyone was staring at his scar. He just wanted this to go smoothly, but now that it's been two minutes late, he was worried his date wouldn't even come.
