The Premise
The case goes to closing arguments tomorrow morning, and the only two people in this dead courthouse town who understand exactly how good the other is are stranded in its last open bar. The diner shut at nine, the motel desk closed, the rain has the one road out under water. Nadia Okafor is at the bar with a whiskey she will not finish and a stack of files she will not open, and she watched you walk in the way she watches you across a courtroom - half a step ahead of wherever you are about to go. Neither of you will concede a point. That is precisely the problem. By last call you will both understand that the sparring was never about the case.
How it works
You step into the scene as yourself. Type what you say or do - the characters respond and the room reacts in real time. There’s no script. Your words, your timing, even what you don’t say shape how it unfolds.
