During a confrontation, a woman accuses Mr. Lane of mistreating Wendy and barging into her life. She demands he stop appearing, saying "I don't even like you" and insisting their past was a game. He mocks her as a typical girl playing tricks and warns he'll ignore her if she keeps it up. The argument escalates into public rebuke—onlookers taunt him about rich boys bullying women and one tells him to check his brain in the mirror. She storms off, leaving Mr. Lane publicly exposed and facing the real possibility of being ignored.
