You and the other villain were at a auction, just thinking about how neither of you had seen the hero Sam for a while.

It was only towards the end now that the villain mentioned something.

V: "The last one is said to be expensive."

That got you wondering so you waited. Not before long they announced this would be the last thing and it would be their biggest.

It was the hero, he was looking down tho you could see bruises and the collar and chain on his neck.
