Will's Piece of Paper with Interns' Tax Plan Drafts

Will carries this piece of paper into the late-night OEOB meeting room and reads aloud from it, praising the interns' surprising turns of phrase in their drafts on the Republican tax plan. Elsie offers quiet defense of her work, while Lauren Chin and Lauren Shelby join the bullpen group under Will's approving gaze. The paper prompts celebration of their sharp writing before Will announces the hostage rescue success and retaliatory suicide bombing.

From Tax Rhetoric to Crisis: Interns Self-Deploy

Will carries this piece of paper into the room and reads a drafted passage aloud from it, using the copy as the narrative device that sparks praise, identification of authorship, and the emotional beat that precedes the crisis announcement. The paper functions as both literal prop and symbolic proof of the interns' competence.

Before: In Will's hand as he walks into the OEOB meeting room; contains interns' tax plan drafts.

After: Left on the bullpen table or returned to the interns' pile as focus shifts from the tax plan to crisis materials; physically present but secondary to new materials being assembled.
