OVER BLACK SCENE CARD
Basic Instinct Makes Interrogation a Desire-Proof Machine
The interrogation is built around proof failing under desire. Catherine controls the room by making every official question reveal the questioner.
Why it works
The scene turns procedure into exposure: detectives ask for facts, but blocking, gaze, status, and performance make their authority feel less stable with every answer.
