Sam's Tie
Sam's fingers claw the knot, twisting fabric into betrayed pleats as hallway accusations fly—Ainsley's defiance ignites Sam's personal fury over guns, the tie bunching like exposed nerves under Josh's watchful eyes, Toby's interruption, Charlie's quiet presence. This slim strip of professional armor frays visibly, knot slipping in rhythmic tugs that pulse his inner turmoil amid the standoff outside Leo's door.
