Finn’s newly introduced daughter, Indy Baker, upends a gathering by presenting a porcelain ball and a blunt ultimatum. Earlier Finn’s friends sneer that a child can’t tame their playboy; Finn brags he’s “taught her a lesson” and claims she now worships him. At the men’s meeting Indy politely introduces herself as Finn’s new daughter and offers her present. Then she reveals the present’s sting: if her father doesn’t return by midnight, “all of you will end up like this ball.” The men are stunned and face a sudden deadline to bring Finn back.
