As up-tempo music playing, Peter gets into the apartment to finds it crowded with people. He walks slowlyin as he looking around in confusion.
"Peter!" Andreas exclaims once he spots his friend and quickens to him with Destiny behind him.
"Who are all these people?" Peter asks as Andreas hugs him briefly then pulls away.
"Just a few friends who were passing through town." Andreas answers. Peter looks at Destiny as he takes the bottle.
"Oh, come on, Peter!" She grunts. "Have some fun and lighten up sometimes. There's a time and a purpose for everything under heaven."
"So blondie blew you off." Andreas says. "Ain't no biggie.If you're lucky, tonight will be your time to get laid."
"Go, go, go." Destiny says as the two push Peter in before the doorbell rings. "Ding-dong!" She walks to answers it, revealing Django and Nellie with two bottles of liquor. "Woohoo! Finally!" And she attacks Nellie with a hug as Django gets in with the bottles to receive a welcoming hug from Andreas.
Django responds the hug by wrapping his occupied arms around the older man's figure with a smile, Destiny finally lets go of Nellie and the two still smiling as they enter the apartment, Destiny closes the door as Django and Andreas pulls away.
"What're these babes?" Andreas takes the bottles from Django. "Wine!" He says in disbelief and Django nods simply as Destiny playfully approaches them.
"We didn't wanted to come empty-handed." Then he glances on Destiny who rests her hands on his shoulder as she looking to the wine bottles. "I know how 'poor' gypsies are, so we wanted to win a 'Godly reward' over ya!" He continues then receives a puch on his shoulder making him grunt and Nellie to laugh slightly as she reaches them and Destiny looks at her.
"Ce om nebun." She mutters as she wraps her arm around Nellie's neck, pulling her into a side hug as Django responds.
"Nu mă face să vă insult înapoi, doamnă." He smugly says and Destiny turns to him in confusion.
"You're Romanian?" She asksand he stares emotionless, uncertain of what to say.
"He's gypsy." Andreas says immediately as Nellie looks at her friend, sympathetically. "He was at Joe's funeral." Then wrap his arm around Django's neck pulling him roughly into him, making the younger guy smile humorously. "Dancing with group of kids and a couple of guys were acting fucking weirdly in the background." He continues, making Django immediately looks at Nellie, after the mentioning of the guys, who looks back to him with knowing look, as Destiny and Andreas continue.
"You didn't tell me that!"
"I had no clue that you wanted to know about it."

Later, Peter is sitting, bored, on a chair glancing on everyone in the crowd before the door opens, revealing Miranda and the two immediately spot each other.
"Oh, you're having a party." She shuts the door as Peter approaches her. "I tried to call you."
"Uh, you did?"
"Yeah. I couldn't get you, so I just stopped by. I felt bad that we never talked after, you know... Obviously, I picked the wrong night." She chuckles nervously.
"No, it's not the wrong night." He immediately responds. "There is no wrong nights.
- I mean, do you wanna come in?
Uh, sure." Then walks in with him, before Andreas strides toward them.
"Come in, we're celebrating!" He greets her with touch-free hug.
"What are you celebrating?"
"Do you need a reason to celebrate?" And gives her a bottle and she laughs, before suddenly catches him.
