AARON rolls his eyes. JULIA steps out of the cell and the POLICEMAN shuts the door again. The POLICEWOMAN returns and holds out a see-through wallet and a grey bag to JULIA. POLICEWOMAN Possessions include: one cell phone, one key chain with six keys, two dice, one lighter and two pens. All from inside one grey bag. JULIA takes her things from the POLICEWOMAN and starts putting the objects back into her bag. CHRISTINA watched with a frown. CHRISTINA Where’s your purse? JULIA I didn’t need it tonight. CHRISTINA You didn’t need money or identification? JULIA finishes sorting her bag and hangs it over her shoulder. She stares at a wall, refusing to make eye contact with CHRISTINA. JULIA (almost to herself) I had plenty of identification. 136
CHRISTINA’S eyes widen and she grabs JULIA’S arm, pulling her closer. JULIA makes no effort to pull away, but her face tightens in annoyance. Without saying anything else, CHRISTINA reaches inside JULIA’S dress. The POLICEMAN and POLICEWOMAN exchange a brief glance, and AARON looks stunned at CHRISTINA’S action, and quickly looks around the room to try to avoid staring. CHRISTINA pulls her hand back out, now holding a card. The card is slightly bent, but otherwise in pristine condition. The front shows it to be the Arcana Card ‘The High Priestess’, but the back is entirely black, with the number 22 written in white very small in the centre. CHRISTINA takes a long breath. CHRISTINA What did I tell you about going to that club? JULIA seems mostly unfazed by her sister, and takes the card back. JULIA Are we really going to do this here? CHRISTINA turns to the POLICEMAN.
