Older Man: What is all this incessant noise near the VIP stage?
Richard: Just a couple of uninvited gatecrashers trying to ruin our gala, Father.
An older couple in formal attire stands watching coldly, with the woman telling the others to stop making a scene.
Older Woman: Stop making a scene. You are embarrassing the entire board of directors.
Elena: Your son just injured a child and you're worried about table manners?
Older Woman: We are worried about maintaining the dignity of the Vance family name.
Older Man: Drag them both out into the alley and let security deal with the mess.
Elena: You treat human beings like disposable trash, just like you always have.
Richard: You heard my father. Get them out of my sight before I lose my temper.
Elena: Your temper is the least of your worries once the authorities review the footage.
Claire: There are no cameras pointing toward this corner of the ballroom.
Elena: Are you entirely sure about that, Claire?
Claire: Of course I am. We disabled the local feed an hour ago.
Elena: Local feeds can be disabled, but federal body-cams record everything automatically.
The woman in the green dress looks up with angry, tear-filled eyes, glaring intensely as a low tension swell fills the room.
Richard: Stop talking in riddles and get out before I throw you out myself.
Can the resilient woman deliver the strike that shatters their arrogance once and for all?
