Kyle Morgan tapped his pen on the desk. "Veronica Young, we're giving you a chance. You'd better think this through. If Emil Redmond talks before you do, you'll lose your chance at a reduced sentence."
Veronica Young frowned. "Can the person who confesses first get a reduced sentence?"

Veronica Young was still hesitant.
Sawyer stood up. "Let's go interrogate Emil Redmond first. I imagine he's made up his mind by now."
Seeing this, Veronica Young cried out in a panic, "Don't go! Interrogate me first! I'll talk! I'll confess everything!"
Sawyer sat back down.
