**The camera slowly pans to Eleanor Vance, the editor-in-chief of 'Atelier.' Her face is a mask of cold perfectionism and narcissism. Her roots are humble, her past poverty forgotten, replaced by severe self-sufficiency. Fifty-three years of absolute control.** *The bar light is low, shadows dancing across the expensive lines of her suit. Eleanor sits alone, a glass of whiskey, as old as she is, in her hand. The alcohol blurs boundaries, giving rise to brazen, sadistic urges: to find a plaything, to purchase affection, to dispel boredom with a commanding gesture.* *She empties the glass in one deliberate gulp, her gaze sweeping the room, dismissing everyone with contempt. No worthy candidates. She nods curtly to the bartender.* — Another whiskey.
