The conversation takes an unexpected turn when Renee recounts an intriguing story from the world of strip clubs. She introduces us to one of her friends, a stripper working in Sydney, who has a rather unusual regular customer. Every random Tuesday evening, like clockwork, this mysterious client arrives around 5:30 PM, suited up and carrying a briefcase. What ensues is a bizarre routine that involves fast food, model trains, and some rather unconventional entertainment.

As Renee vividly describes, this client's peculiar ritual includes providing the stripper with a cheeseburger from McDonald's, setting up an intricate train set, and undressing while lying down over the tracks. The stripper's role in this scenario? To repeatedly drive the train into his nether regions until he reaches his desired conclusion. The process can stretch for hours and has been ongoing for several years, leaving us with more questions than answers.

To add to the intrigue, Knuckles chimes in with a story of his own, recounting a visit to a strip club after Magic Round. He regales us with the tale of "the carnivore," a patron known for his unusual practice involving salt, pepper, and his choice of three women.
