SW: Is this thing on?

LR: Yes, I, I think it is.

SW: Okay. Lets us start. Do you know why you are here?

S1: Um. You guys wanna ask me some questions?

Noted Action (NA): Council places hand on S1’s shoulder.

LR: That’s right. First tell us, have you been in trouble with us before?

S1: (Giggling) Yes.

LR: You remember what that was for?

S1: Tagging, I think.

LR: Of course, just tagging.

NA: LR unfolds a file. Shifts paper across the table.

LR: This is your wrap sheet since you were eleven years old. Defacing public property, joyriding, public indecency, public intoxication, contraband, truancy, and physical assault. Does that ring any bells?

S1: Now that-

Council (C1): Enough. Please get on with your questions.

SW: Where were you last night around, around, midnight and one?

S1: Snoring, sweet cheeks, snoozing, catching some zees. (Laughing)

SW: So, you were nowhere near Senator Kiramman’s campaign HQ? Just sleeping?

S1: Yep, sleeping in bed, just enjoying myself. Well, I had help with the joy part.

SW: What do you mean?

S1: My boyfriend gave me a helping hand! (Laughter and giggles)

SW: Ugh, I don’t care about that.

S1: Ha! Your puffy face says otherwise. (S1 sits up in her chair)

NA: SW leans back.

SW: You know what I think?

NA: SW flips over a photograph.

SW: I think you were at Heimerdinger Hall. I think you broke in! I think you (Tapping on the table) trashed the place and torched it! You can’t lie to our faces now, Jinx.

C1: Might I ask to what evidence do you have for such accusations? Besides a blurry photograph that looks like it was taken by a five-year-old?

S1: I’m glad someone turned that eye sore into a bond fire. Imagine if you had to constantly walk past that thing, sheesh! (Short snort)

LR: Whoever did it. It would seem they had motive too. I’m sure this has nothing to do with your father’s campaign? The one he’s running against Senator Kiramman?

S1: Who? Never heard of ‘em.

SW: Stop smiling. You won’t get off this time.

S1: Not with that attitude.

C1: Rose. Quiet. If you are just going to throw around baseless claims, I think this interview is over. Let’s go, Rose.

NA: C1 and S1 get up from their seats.

C1: Detectives.

S1: Detectives.

NA: SW lunges from her seat at S1. Papers scatter everywhere.

(Unintelligible yelling, screams, cursing)

NA: Several officers have restrained SW and S1.

S1: Nice try bitch!

SW: Fuck you-

SW was put into administrative leave proceeding an investigation.
