Ryan's Elbow Pads
Ryan mentions these elbow pads as one of his birthday gifts from Tommy Lee Royce, received alongside knee pads and a helmet. Frances presses Ryan on them during her interrogation in Mike's office, twisting the gifts to portray Tommy's kind intentions and erode Ryan's distrust. Standard child-sized protective pads, likely foam-padded plastic or rubber for biking or skating, sit as background props symbolizing Tommy's invasive reach into Ryan's life.
