*1284SCHWELB, Senior Judge,
concurring in the judgment:
I concur in the judgment dubitante. Although Hailstock obviously did not intend to have sexual intercourse with the complaining witness if she turned him down, and although he departed ignominiously, soon uttering preposterous boasts about his implied supposed prowess after she did refuse him, I am (barely) prepared to join my colleagues in affirming the MSA conviction because under all of the circumstances, Hailstock’s earlier actions, including locking the door and assaulting the victim on the bed, were arguably sufficient under the statute. See, also, maj. op. at 1288 note 6, and authorities there cited. I also vote to affirm the assault conviction.
