It's a cocktail party to help everyone in the Good Place get to know each other!
Men in well-tailored suits talk to women in dresses that cost more than Sasha ever made in a year and necklaces that he's used to seeing in museums. The portions of food are tiny-- three or four bites-- and Sasha doesn't recognize any of it. The wine flows freely; it's more expensive than any Sasha has ever had, and if he has a glass it tastes far worse.
He catches scraps of conversation:
"--so then I told Barack, I said, darling, that tie of yours is absolutely divine--"
"--oh, you had a foundation too? Mine primarily focused on tobacco control on the developing world, but I absolutely agree that women's empowerment is a vitally important cause--"
"--I actually had fourteen children myself! I just love children so much I couldn't stop myself from having another one. Of course, I breastfed them each until they were six, cloth-diapered and homeschooled, and we spaced out the vaccines--"
"--I'm personally an anarchocommunist, although I've definitely been influenced a lot by the anarcho-syndicalist point of view--"
"--my advocacy focused on helping people develop a healthy sexuality without hierarchy or the need for dominance or power--"
