Felix and Tomas are hanging out in the bathroom. Their friend is out of it, and they're trying to cool him down in the bathtub. They're supposed to keep an eye on him, but the attraction between them is so strong, they can barely keep their eyes off of each other. They can't even hear the guy banging on the door.

With the party on its last legs, a group of friends linger in the living room. A grating tune on the piano interrupts the foreplay between Caleb, Tomas and Marc, but soon, the notes somehow start falling into place as a soothing Schubert melody. The three friends stare quietly, or maybe defiantly, at the source of the music. When the piano stops, the real action begins on the couch. This poetic tale of hedonism in tumultuous times is the second chapter of Raid, a four-part series featuring interwoven stories in a reality that's equally dreamy and radically mundane. —Noel Alejandro
