Silver G-string guy emphasizes the word “point” with a pelvic thrust. That must have been a signal to the light operator because the light beam narrows to focus exclusively on his point.
“Wow,” Calliope says. “I didn’t realize their lights and sound capabilities would be so good. I’m impressed.”
“What is happening?” Ralph murmurs.
“Magic, baby,” she purrs. “Magic is happening.”
The sultry voice continues to boom throughout the room.
“This point of infinite heat…”
The silver pointed pelvis pumps into the air.
“This steeeeeaming hot, sexy heat…”
The pelvis swirls.
“Was packed! Full! Of raw! Materials!”
Thrust. Thrust. Thrust. Thrust.
“Calliope,” I whisper,” I’m starting to think this isn’t burlesque.”
“For billions of years, this point was yearning and churning and burning…”
The performer’s pelvis vibrates and shakes with vigor now.
“Don’t hurt yourself, dude,” I joke.
“It wanted to stretch…”
The man’s silver hand teases his G-string while he gyrates.
“It wanted to growwwww…”
“Looks pretty fully grown to me,” Mabel giggles.
“And when it reached the magnificent moment when it could no longer contain itself…”
The spotlighted hand pulls out an erect, silver penis and strokes it hard.
“Oh my God.” Ralph covers his eyes.
“It BURST!”
Bright light flashes, then fills the entire bar.
The silver man is now surrounded by a troupe of naked people, all painted and accessorized to look like planets.
The same female voice proudly booms, “Welcome. To the Big Bang Bacchanal!”
With that, a literal big bang begins.

"Holy moly, they’re really going for it!” Mabel starts taking off her own clothes. “This is a dream come true for a new nudist!”
