Eleanor: What did you do?
Maya: The accounts were frozen this afternoon.
Eleanor: You froze my bank accounts?

Eleanor: Exactly! Half of it is mine.
Maya: We ordered an audit. You've been embezzling funds for years.
Eleanor: Embezzling? It was my own company!

Marcus: Actually, Eleanor, the board was notified of the audit an hour ago.
Eleanor: The board knows?
Marcus: Yes.

Marcus: You were removed from the board effective immediately.
Eleanor: This is a coup!

Maya reached back into the silver bag and pulled out a heavy envelope.
Eleanor: Eviction? From where?
Maya: The penthouse suite.
