Strike One
He scans the courtroom; the presiding opponents are arranged in a diamond formation. A wall of green sits behind them. The crowd sighs.

Strike Three
A breaking pitch of a sentence; his fans weep – sighs turn to cries –
The authority retires to their chambers as he hangs his head.
25 to Life.
