A lock-in prop is an object that keeps her in the beat: her drink on your table, a jacket over a chair. Mystery-era club jargon. The usual advice is to have lock-in as attention and a reason to stay, not a hostage glass.[1]
In practice
In practice: if she wants the drink back and to leave, that is a leave. A prop is not compliance toward sex. Enthusiastic consent is not a glass.
