Power Play

The scene begins with Madison (Eliza Ibarra) in her kitchen, creating a smoothie. She gracefully pours fruit nectar over the ice pieces in the blender. Her movements are both elegant and intentional.
Just as she is about to activate the blender, her doorbell interrupts. She appears surprised by the unexpected visitor. She cleans her hands on a nearby towel and departs the kitchen to attend to the door.
Madison opens the door to welcome her coworker, Jordan (Lucas Frost). She ushers him in and escorts him into the kitchen. As Madison continues with her smoothie, Jordan unravels his purpose for the visit, accusing her of orchestrating the exit of various colleagues through dubious methods to advance her career.
He inquires what she is prepared to give him in return for his discretion. Madison maintains a thin smile, not a trace of concern visible on her face. She activates the blender, the ice is loudly pulverized into nothingness.
CUT TO TITLE Madison insinuates that she possesses damaging information on Jordan too. Jordan considers she's bluffing, but Madison provides Jordan with tangible evidence of his various indiscretions. Jordan emits a dry laugh, shaking his head.
He glances at Madison with something akin to respect. Madison senses a similar spirit in Jordan and proposes that they engage in sexual activity. Jordan attempts to feign disbelief with a laugh, but it's clear he's intrigued.
'Not a chance,'' he responds. 'Really, you can't tell me our little 'clash' didn't feel more like a prelude to passion than an argument? What exactly did you think I was going to propose in exchange for your discretion? Cash? Neither of us needs it. THIS is what you came here for,' she counters.
'FINE, hope you can keep up with me,' Jordan concedes. 'Bring it on,' Madison rebuts, sporting a mischievous grin. Jordan might think he's prepared for what's to come, but he's oblivious to what Madison is TRULY capable of.
