AI's version of scene 7 in my sequel to Wicker Man themed semi-autobiography

Phoenix, intrigued by this peculiar response, inquired further. "Quantitative easing? What do you mean by that?" The man, seemingly pleased to have an audience, explained, "Son, what these ladies are doing here is providing a much-needed release for us men. It's like injecting liquidity into a struggling economy. We're easing the tension, the stress of our daily lives. Just like a central bank intervenes to stimulate economic activity, these women are stimulating us." The other men nodded in agreement, their laughter now a mix of amusement and a strange sense of camaraderie. 

Phoenix found himself drawn into this unusual world, a world where pleasure and economic metaphors intertwined. He observed the women, their skilled hands working their magic, their faces a mask of professionalism despite the rings on their fingers. He wondered about their stories, the secrets they held, and the sadness that seemed to lurk beneath their smiles. 

As he continued his tour of the facilities, Phoenix encountered more peculiar characters and situations. He witnessed a man emerging from the changing rooms, distraught over his missing belongings, only to be met with indifference and accusation by the receptionist. It seemed that this place, amidst the pleasure and release, also harbored a darker underbelly, a place where power dynamics and abuse of authority played out in unexpected ways.
