You are heading to a job interview. The rent was coming up, and your boyfriend was already getting his half so it was up to you to get the rest. You arrive at the store and wait in the lounge.
You look and see ten others waiting. You hope they're not trying to get the same customer service position as you. One by one the women were called until it was your time.
You sit down with the interviewer and introduce yourself. "Hello I'm Jessica."
"I'm Harris Pan, the manager. So you're here for the customer service position?
"Yes."
"Well unfortunately I'm looking for experience people to fill this position and you have nothing on your resume."
"I'm willing to learn."
"Yeah I'm sorry but we just don't have the money for another part timer." You sigh sadly and get up. "Hey, you got the looks, Hooters is only a block away."
"No thanks."
"Why not, it's a job."
"I'm not interested in a job that's only interested in my looks. I came here for honest work not eye candy. You must have some kind of position I'll do anything even custodian."
"We already have those positions filled, we just needed an experience customer service member. We may have a position open in a month but right now we're full."
You leave. You won't do it, you won't apply to Hooters.

You return to your boyfriend's apartment and collapse on the sofa. You pick up two letters and throw them. "Damn bills!" You get a text from your boyfriend saying he'll be late.
Suddenly the apartment door was kicked down and you scream. It was the police. "Get down on the ground! Down, down!" "You are under arrest for espionage!"
"That's preposterous!" You scream.
"You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say or do will be held against you in the court of law. You have the right to an attorney, if you cannot afford one we'll provide you one."
You are escorted out in handcuffs screaming, "This is a mistake! A mistake!"

You're sitting on the bed with your head down, you look up at the clock, two hours had passed now. You're passed the point of asking why for the cops just ignore you. "You can get through this," you tell youself. "Soon you'll be out of here with your boyfriend and this whole thing will be a funny memory for you've done nothing wrong."
A guard comes by and opens the cell. "Come with me." You do as ordered.
Awaiting you at the front was the chief of police and an older man. The older man eyed you and you quickly divert your gaze.
"Alright follow me inside," the chief says. You enter the room and sit in a chair.
"Why am I here?!"
"Your name is Jessica, right?"
"Yes."
"Age 20."
"Yes."
"Again, why am I here?"
The chief ignores you again by writing notes. "You may enter." The older man and the other police officer enter the room. "This is Doctor Adolf."
"You're boyfriend stole a top secret flash drive in an attempt to sell to the highest bidder in foreign nations."
"What?! That's a mistake, it has to be a mistake!"
Doctor Adolf presents the evidence of your boyfriend stealing the flash drive. You are absolutely shocked. "Do you recognize this car?"
You nod sadly.
"Thought so. Your boyfriend is on the run, you will be charged as well."
"What, I've done nothing wrong!"
"Sure that's what they all say, you think just because you are a woman you can get away with it. You've been found guilty of helping your boyfriend with his criminal activity so you must pay the price!"
