Through Hank's jail excursion he meets record producer Lew Ashby (think Rick Rubin meets Phil Spector). Ashby is a lot like Hank, he's completely unrepressed and somewhat self destructive. While hanging out at Ashby's mansion/studio, Hank has a run in with the happy hooker, Trixie and while it does not end in a full release, it does wind up complicating things with Karen. To add insult to injury, Mia is enjoying her new role as an acclaimed author, even if she had to steal Hank's (re-titled F**king and Punching) book to do it.
