An interesting but confusing dream

Today I had a fairly lucid dream. In this dream I awoke in a prison located somewhere in London. Apparently, Russia had gone berserk and went on an annexation spree, declaring all nations belong to it, and that anyone who opposes them will be imprisoned and beaten. I challenged people around me and got .. punished (let's just say they made me drop the soap and enjoyed it. I apologised the next day, hoping it wouldn't happen again). Eventually I realise there is a plot to escape. I met up with a few people (4 girls) that had the same plan and eventually agreed to escape with them. The plan was that we'd meet at an agreed location and then rendezvous at a nearby tube station. From there, once we are safe, we will then decide where to go. When we finally make the escape, we head towards one of the tube stations but one of the runaways decided to take their time and go shower. Eventually we reach the tube station - some by bicycles - but as we were escaping, we see a bus approaching and I knew instinctively what this meant: they are coming. I observe the soldiers pouring out of the bus and rushing out as I rushed us as well and told them to leave their shit behind. Unfortunately, 2 of us were caught and left behind.

At this point, I said,"We need to get out of here, France and Germany are close and good allies and wouldn't throw us out.. You girls wouldn't happen to know anyone from those countries, would you?". One of the girls, named Alice, replied,"Well actually, I'm from France. I study there and have a place for the both of you as well. We could recoup there and figure out what's next".

In response, I said,"It's too bad the other two couldn't make it". I couldn't imagine what would happen to them as they would have likely been tortured and imprisoned for information. Luckily (or not), I did not give them the important information detailing the escape.

Finally, the other girl whose name escapes me, speaks up,"Yeah well.. you kinda left them behind". I pondered. I had no choice. If we stayed longer, we would have been caught too, it was a lose-lose situation for us either way. We had to make the hard decision and leave them behind. I choked a little bit,"Not much we could do, really", as we looked towards the view as soldiers walked up with armed weapons and apprehended the girls. We somehow make the journey to France and arrive at Alice's place. She shares a place with this other guy named Vince who was fairly relaxed about the entire situation and they were fairly lax about everything - including letting me walk around in my boxers as I waited for my turn to shower. As night arrives, I inquired on how our living situation was going to be and laughably made a threesome suggestion - which wasn't opposed by anyone. As we headed off to bed, I awoke in my own, realising the entire string of events was a well-lived dream. I wondered what it would be like if I had continued dreaming.
