To deal with Okanjo...I'm suggesting that Mati and Okanjo have a private chat on deck together, in which (to take up Haibane's suggestion), Okanjo says he is likely to be recalled to his country for urgent consultations any day, and they agree on a trial rental for Paulette.  Is that ok?  Then Mati and Paulette might immediately go to the hotel together, or there might be a jump cut for Mati of say a half-day or a few hours for him to be at the hotel, and for Paulette to be delivered to him, perhaps in some appropriately cruel way from Okanjo.  I don't know how long the party is going to go on...
