Enter JULIAN (29, tattooed, wearing a ripped band t-shirt and a leather jacket despite the heat). He holds a phone in the air like a holy relic.

PATRICIA Objection. Narrative and inflammatory. Mature4k - Elle - Courtroom Chaos. Part 1 -17.0...
ELLE (quietly, to Patricia) He was supposed to be in Cabo.
Crane smirks. He doesn’t need evidence. He has a secret weapon.
