Eugene is driven from Euston to the venue, where a Runner will take him through the main door security. When he arrives the crowd is huge and frantic. He's ushered through quickly and into make-up.

The audition begins, but the auto-cue isn't moving and there's something disturbing about that crowd. The interview is cancelled ("technical issues") and the Runner, coughing now, abruptly shows Eugene out of the stage door.

Eugene drives out of London. Andrea doesn't think he should leave the city in case he's called back for the audition, but he's promised a friend he'll stay over.
