Wales

Wales arises in Will's joking list of vacation spots after he steps back from the campaign. On the sunlit pavement outside Orange County Municipal Building, Will names it alongside other distant escapes, turning potential exile into lighthearted deflection. The country evokes unhurried respite—green coasts and quiet hills imagined but untouched—easing the tension of Sam's handover. Humor cuts the moment's gravity, framing Wales as freedom from daily battles.
