Leo and his coworkers are attending an industry conference at a prestigious civic center.
Leo is using his phone to record a presentation, which is against the venue's rules. The head venue coordinator, wearing a formal staff suit, approaches Leo and tells him to stop recording and delete the file. Leo immediately complies and deletes the video.
