"He's The Greatest Dancer" by Sister Sledge blasts from the sound system.

As Brother Doofus and the Viking continue quaffing drinks at the bar, you wander out of the ballroom into the back yard.

To the north, you see a patio just outside the mansion's dining room.  To the northeast, you see a pool, a poolhouse and a greenhouse.  The hedge maze is to the east and the driveway where you first arrived is to the south.

Wandering through the cool night air, you think you hear a scream and a crash from the second floor of the mansion, but you can't be sure.
 
 
 

8:20 P.M.

"Wonderwall" by Oasis is playing in the distance as you continue north along the side of the mansion, reentering the building through a set of French doors, in search of hors d'ouvres.

You step into the dining room and see Brother Doofus entering from the ballroom.

Before either of you can say anything, the Viking enters behind Brother Doofus and says, "Hey, guys! Strip Poker Invitational in the pool house at 9:00! Spread the word!" Then he disappears through a door at the west end of the dining room.
