Summary

Everyone is trapped by something. Maybe you're in a house you can't leave, maybe you're in a meeting that never seems to end, and maybe you're stuck in a situation where any good outcome is slipping away, every opportunity to make change is disappearing. For Bea and Grace, their chances of escape are slimming quickly. But it's not just them who are in trouble... So maybe you are trapped in a room, or in an untenable position, or a job you can't leave, or between a ravenous crowd and a broken window. Maybe there is a way out, just not the one you wanted. You can't walk away, you can only escape. You can run. For everyone, the walls are closing in, whether they realize it or not.

0:09.0	The chocolatey mousse latte is here to cozy things up, topped with mokker cream moose for a finishing touch.
0:16.0	Two lattes in hand, one for you and one for me, because together truly is the best place to be.

1:30.2	And even if we bring him down, even if we take the hard power from him, if he's hurt her,
1:40.3	he's still won. And then what? Why even do this? Why? Grace? Uh-huh. We're discussing the stifled growth opportunities under the current management structure? Is there anything you would like to add?
