Assistant Manager's 'ASSISTANT MANAGER' Name Tag
A small rectangular identification badge pinned to the assistant manager's chest, the block letters 'ASSISTANT MANAGER' printed in plain caps. Likely plastic or thin metal, compact enough to read at arm's length, it anchors his performative uniform: he straightens it with rehearsed civility and lets the printed title do the work of authority and exclusion as he delivers menacing, scripted lines.

Purpose
To visually identify the wearer’s role for staff and guests, signaling managerial authority and clarifying social position in the hotel construct.
Significance
Functions as a prop of institutional power: the badge converts the assistant manager’s threats into sanctioned menace, reinforces othering of Riker and Worf, and helps expose the Royale’s manufactured social roles at the moment the construct’s hollowness becomes critical to the plot.
