The wife and kids are out. Dad’s home alone and got an itch he needs scratched. Gone are the days of driving into the city to cruise bars; a few swipes on a tablet and a hookup is already walking through the door for some hot play in Suburbia.

I focused on the contrast between the dimly lit, intimate interior, complete with a glass of wine, car keys, and a tablet on the table, and the view of the quiet, unsuspecting neighborhood visible just outside the window.
