"Opening bid for lot number seven this evening is 25,000 dollars, though we expect it to go significantly higher. Who's going to help this sweet little soon to be sugar baby here?"

The monitor over his head flickers to life, with the number 25,000 in huge numbers with the words "opening bid" beneath.

"Start the bidding, gentlemen."
