Examples

“Y.T.'s mom stands up, hands to her sides, and starts walking. She walks straight out of the office. None of the other people look⟳ up. Not supposed to. Insensitive to co-workers' needs. Makes the testee feel⟳ awkward and singled out, when in fact the polygraph is just part of the whole Fed way of life. She can hear⟳ the snapping footsteps of the proctor behind her, walking two paces behind, watching, keeping her eyes on those hands so they can't be doing anything, like⟳ popping a Valium or something else that might throw⟳ off the test⟳.”
