You are the presenter of a popular weekly podcast Talking Heads, which is recorded in front of a live audience. During your in-depth interview with Lucky, she repeatedly denies being soft on crime. You ask her “Why should the electorate consider a woman who has blood on her hands? Lucky starts to argue with you when an audience member jumps up and shouts “Lucky Lyons you’re a lying, murdering wagon”. He repeats this twice before the microphones are muted. After the show ends, you discover that the audience member is the father of Delours Day, the girl killed in Lucky’s car in the 1990s.
