As Cedric Stanton's tone became increasingly aggressive, Emmett clearly alarmed, gestured frantically to calm him down. Leaning closer, he hissed in a desperate whisper, "Mr. Stanton, this is no time to accuse Mr. Nicholson! We need his help, not his anger!"

These two had no cards left to play, no paths to tread other than this desperate appeal—or certain doom!
