Planning Not To Panic:           Harvey W. and Lupita N.                             [The Bedroom Scene]

Quoting from The New York Times, 10.19.2017:
Lupita Nyong’o is an actor, director and producer. On October 19, 2017 in an op-ed for the New York Times, the Oscar-winning actress detailed a pattern of predatory behavior Harvey Weinstein, a film producer, former film executive, and actor, had directed at her, starting when she was still a student at the Yale School of Drama. She writes,

“Harvey led me into a bedroom — his bedroom — and announced that he wanted to give me a massage.
I thought he was joking at first. He was not. For the first time since I met him, I felt unsafe. I panicked a little and thought quickly to offer to give him one instead: It would allow me to be in control physically, to know exactly where his hands were at all times.
Part of our drama school curriculum at Yale included body work, using massage techniques on one another to understand the connection between body, mind and emotion, and so I felt I could rationalize giving him one and keep a semblance of professionalism in spite of the bizarre circumstance. He agreed to this and lay on the bed. I began to massage his back to buy myself time to figure out how to extricate myself from this undesirable situation. Before long he said he wanted to take off his pants. I told him not to do that and informed him that it would make me extremely uncomfortable. He got up anyway to do so and I headed for the door, saying that I was not at all comfortable with that. “If we’re not going to watch the film, I really should head back to school,” I said.
I opened the door and stood by the frame. He put his shirt on and again mentioned how stubborn I was. I agreed with an easy laugh, trying to get myself out of the situation safely. I was after all on his premises, and the members of his household, the potential witnesses, were all (strategically, it seems to me now) in a soundproof room.”
