Gus only knows, George.
Poor Ashcroft. He has clearly tried to muscle into the wrong party. After being poisoned with Gus's wine

, iced (and eaten?

) by Gautam, and knocked out by Sumac's flying buoy

, the hostess decides the time has come for Ashcroft to go.
But not without a little fanfare.
Removing a couple of Viagra tablets from the hall console (the Goddess buys them in quantity for her parties...good deals on the internet, y'know), she slips them into Ashcroft's mouth as he lies unconscious on the ballroom floor. Once they take effect, she calls for a gondola and the obnoxious guest is laid out formally, sans clothing, with an American flag flying at full mast up his (uh) flagpole. The guests, one and all, gather on the balcony and salute as Ashcroft's gondola slowly floats away from the palazzo, down the Grand Canal and out to sea. It will be hours before Ashcroft awakes.
"Now!" Eva announces. "it is time for Osso to open her gifts! Back to the party!" The laughing guests descend the stairs together and enter the parlor. Gautam has brought elegant Gucci shades for Osso, Sumac has brought an entire terracotta jug of Kalamata olives, and PortalStar (aka the Duchess of Dunehiem) has brought some exquisite millefiori from Murano.
Let's see...what else is there?
