Across the street, inside a black command vehicle.
Leo Wallace watched the chaotic scene on the monitor.
He heard the shouting from outside.
"Wayne is in," Ethan said in a low voice. "Just as planned, he provoked the judge and started a conflict."
"Good."
Leo nodded.
"This is the path he chose for himself."
"If he wants to be a knife, he must be prepared to be broken against the bone."
Leo picked up his phone.
"Sarah."
"Here," Sarah's voice came through the receiver.
"Take the recording of what Wayne just said and edit it."
"Add subtitles, pair it with Erin Quinn's photo and close-ups of those claim denial forms."
"I want this video on every media outlet we can reach within ten minutes."
...
Philadelphia, in an executive suite at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel.
The space had been converted into Leo's temporary command center.
