Victoria: Chief, you've worked for me for three years! How could you betray me like this?!
Head Guard: Because you've been a tyrant to everyone in this hotel since the day you got hired, Victoria!
Staff Member 1: She docked my pay last month because I took five minutes to drink water!
Staff Member 2: She fired the front desk clerk last week just because he didn't bow to her when she walked in!
Guest 3: She insulted my family yesterday because my son spilled soda near the elevator!
The crowd of guests and employees began to voice their outrage, surrounding Victoria with angry shouts.
Guest 1: You belong in prison, you miserable woman!
Guest 2: Pushing a child out of a wheelchair... you are a monster!
Victoria: Shut up! All of you, shut up! You're all beneath me!
Marcus: Nobody in this room is beneath you, Victoria. But after today, you are at the very bottom.
Victoria: Mr. Vance, I have high-placed connections in this city! My brother is a corporate attorney!
Marcus: Tell your brother to prepare for the biggest lawsuit of his career.
Victoria: A lawsuit?! For a single slap?!
Marcus: For child abuse, battery against a minor with a disability, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and civil rights violations.
Victoria: You're bluffing! No judge will sentence me to prison for this!
Marcus: Maya was paralyzed in a car accident two years ago that took her mother's life.
The entire lobby gasped, a quiet sadness washing over the crowd as people looked at the brave little girl on the sofa.
Marcus: She has spent two years in physical therapy, working every single day to regain her confidence.
Maya: Daddy... I was scared I did something wrong...
Marcus: You did nothing wrong, baby. You were just being a sweet, patient girl.
Marcus turned back to Victoria, his eyes cold like ice.
Marcus: She was terrified to come out in public today because she thought people would stare at her wheelchair. And the very first person she met was a cruel bully who proved her worst fears right.
Victoria: I... I didn't know her mother passed away...
Marcus: It doesn't matter who her mother was! You treated a child like trash because you thought no one was watching!
Victoria: Please... Mr. Vance... I'll sell my car, I'll pay you whatever money you want!
Marcus: I have two billion dollars in the bank, Victoria. Your money is completely worthless to me.
Victoria: Then what do you want from me?!
Marcus: I want you to face full justice under the law.
