It's not that Jim has been avoiding the door to Milliways, necessarily; he thinks about it often, watches it out of the corner of his eye as he chops wood in the kitchen yard. Not once has he seen anyone else enter or exit. He's beginning to think it's hiding in plain sight, visible only to him.
There is one person he considers asking: Jessica Harrison. But Jim quickly decides that after his previous performance, the existential question of a door to the end of the universe is a conversation better left for another day. That doesn't mean he isn't prepared to pursue the matter himself, however. The boss left him behind, and so Jim doesn't feel guilty taking time between chores and butler duty to open the door and step inside.
Milliways. Against reason, it really does exist. Jim pushes his hat back with a forefinger to allow for lower light and a quick look around, then steps up to the bar with a bemused expression on his face.
