She was promised her big break and was given about $10K for hooking up with AB.
It was in her purse. It was also actually long before the photo of AB (a technology CEO) and AC (a foreign born madam if you will) was taken. AB and AC actually went back a good five or six years prior to that photo being taken. They had met through an ex of AB, although at the time this blind took place, she was not an ex yet.
