That’d probably get you thrown out of the club by the bouncers.
I think it probably results in a bouncher coming to you and asking if everything is all right. That probably a good moment to tell them that you have to go to the toilet and move there.
Lock yourself in the toilet. Once you come out, should they ask you tell them that everything is alright again and don’t sit down on the floor again.
Yes; now that I remember about that, I once responded to a bouncer calling me out (though the thing I had done was different than sitting on the floor) that way. (But bouncers are less friendly in certain places than in others, IME.)
Unless peirce is interested in going back to the clubs, that sounds like it could make the activity even better (from a getting-over-social-anxiety perspective).
Part of what such exercises are about is demostrating yourself that you have agency.
If you lose control over the situation in a way that you didn’t expect beforehand and people disapprove of you in that way it doesn’t encourage yourself to see your own agency.

Depending on peirce’s psychology, doing something in a club and being thrown out might be analogue to cautiously stepping out of your house after staying there for months for fear of spiders and ending up covered in tarantulas.
