Object
Roosevelt Room Green Evacuation Card
A small, credit‑card–sized rectangle of paper or thin plastic dyed an institutional green, with rounded edges and a faint official stamp. The card slips easily into a wallet and is often held to a folder by a tiny silver paper clip. Jonathan Lacey presses it into Josh’s hand; Josh closes his fingers around it as Leo looks away, the card turning ordinary touch into acute moral pressure.

Purpose
To provide a named bearer with clandestine evacuation instructions and a designated priority destination in the event of a nuclear attack or similar emergency.
Significance
The card functions as a catalytic prop: it physically externalizes hidden contingency plans and forces a choice between personal protection and team loyalty. Its delivery yanks open buried trauma, converts office banter into existential panic, and pivots the episode’s emotional stakes.
