Drawing the Line: Principle vs. Pragmatism

Holiday gift cards and wrapped presents are handed to Leo, their tags read aloud (revealing 'Elizabeth'), and then they are packed up and carried in and out—serving as visual counterpoint to the ethical battle and underscoring the personal costs of public service.

Before: Brightly wrapped and arranged in Margaret's arms or on desk, with tags attached and waiting for Leo's signature.

After: Packed up by Margaret and partially returned; some remain in Leo's office where he stares at them with visible displeasure.

Leo's Tail: A Christmas Eve Dressing-Down

A gift tag from the cluster of holiday gift cards is read aloud by Margaret and triggers a brief, humanizing exchange about 'Elizabeth' that contrasts the office's domestic warmth with the moral heat of the reprimand. The cards punctuate the scene's holiday setting while underscoring the intrusion of work on private life.

Before: Affixed to a wrapped present in Margaret's hands as she enters the office to have Leo sign gifts and cards.

After: Collected back into Margaret's armload of presents after she steps out and then returns; the tag remains unreadjusted but now sits against the charged context of the confrontation.
