In Minute 103 of The Whole Shebang, Jenny and Mike look at Arthur’s very sexful way of taking off his shirt and how difficult the “crossed-arm” method is to pull off smoothly, Curt’s brief flashback (or flashforward) as Arthur and Curt come together, and Arthur’s taking mescaline before the evening’s events and how many hallucinogens, like DMT, simulate alien contact, and how Jenny is a true believer in the UFO and its glitterdust sprinkling down over Arthur and Curt, Arthur and Curt’s lovemaking and how Curt compares it to being onstage, how this sequence breaks down the boundary in a quite literal sense between audience and artist, how the groupie experience allowed a girl in the 1970s to touch the feeling of being onstage, how we as the audience are watching Arthur, and how the identities of our protagonists are being melded and boundaries are breaking down.
