Object
Stagecoaches (Donna's anecdote — historical props)
A row of horse-drawn coaches implied by Donna's trivia: heavy wooden bodies with iron-rimmed wheels, canvas or leather tops, bench seating, brass lanterns at the sides, and worn leather harnesses for teams of horses. The coaches never appear on camera; they live in Donna's spoken detail, summoned as vivid frontier imagery that Josh hears while multitasking.

Purpose
A horse-drawn passenger and mail conveyance in period contexts; in the processed material the coaches function as illustrative historical props within Donna's anecdote to evoke violent, lawless pasts.
Significance
Serves as a grounding, humanizing image that lightens tension and deepens intimacy between characters: Donna's mention of stagecoaches and horseback 'drive-by' shooters distracts and amuses Josh, turning high-stakes anxiety into familiar, oddly comic historical color.
