Josh's Laptop

Josh's laptop dominates his shadowed office desk late at night, screen blazing with Surgeon General Griffith's live chat defiance—equating marijuana dangers to nicotine and alcohol, shredding Josh's discipline memo in real-time rebellion. Donna hunches over its keyboard, eyes locked on the unfolding mutiny, until Josh's sharp command slices through: 'Turn it off!' Her fingers stab the power button, mirroring past shutdowns that severed Leo's crisis lifeline, sleek frame humming faintly under fluorescent glare, scarred keys bearing ghosts of Marriage Recognition Act battles amid scattered papers.
