SCRIPT: Oh no—Leire has recently fractured her foot, leaving her in terrible pain. She’s shown lying in bed with her leg elevated, calling some friends to share what happened and describe the strange sensation of being in a cast.

In one scene, she struggles to put on a sock despite the extreme pain it causes, only to remove it moments later because of the pressure on her toes. Afterward, she lies down in a “pose-style” position, showing both soles of her feet while using her phone.

Following this short rest, she grabs her crutches and walks around the office for a while, even stopping at a vending machine for a snack. Still hungry, she makes her way to the kitchen, where, in clear discomfort, she places her casted foot on the counter while preparing food.

Later, she returns to her desk on crutches, props her casted leg up on the chair, and begins massaging her toes. Because the injury is so recent, the massage brings her intense pain, highlighting just how fresh and sensitive her fracture still is.
