 Why were the extraterrestrials not enchanted by Gabriel Lockard like the rest of the humans that were present?
Even the girl with him was growing restless, for she was accustomed to adulation herself, and next to Gabriel Lockard she was almost ordinary-looking. As for the extraterrestrials—it was a free bar—they were merely amused, since to them all men were pathetically and irredeemably hideous. And that, coming on top of Gabriel Lockard's spectacular appearance, was too much. Once the illuminators were extinguished in Gabriel Lockard's hotel suite, it seemed reasonably certain to the man in the gray suit, as he watched from the street, that his quarry would not go out again that night.
 They saw all humans as the same.
 They were more enchanted by the girl with him.  They were too intoxicated to care.  They saw all humans as the same.  They found him appaling.
