INT. OFFICE PARTY - NIGHT
A lively office party is in full swing. The room is filled with co-workers chatting, laughing, and enjoying themselves. EMILY stands at the edge of the room, feeling nervous and out of place. She is inappropriately dressed in a tattered, oversized sweater and worn-out shorts.
TOM spots Emily from across the room.
CUT TO: CLOSE ON EMILY
Her eyes widen as she realizes her outfit. Her hands instinctively reach to cover herself, but there's little she can do.
TOM (O.S.) Hey, Emily!
TOM approaches, smiling and seemingly oblivious to Emily's inappropriate attire.
EMILY (petrified) Tom, I... I don't know what happened. I must have grabbed the wrong clothes. I'm so sorry.
TOM (relaxed) Don't worry, Emily. It's just a party. Besides, we're all here to have a good time. Emily looks around the room, her face red with embarrassment. She notices that everyone is staring and whispering about her outfit.
EMILY (whispers) I can't believe this is happening. I feel so exposed.
TOM (concerned) Emily, you're a great manager, and everyone here respects you. This doesn't change that. And honestly, people will forget about it in no time.
EMILY (doubtful) You think so?
TOM (nods) Absolutely. Listen, vulnerability is a part of life. It's how we grow. It might be uncomfortable now, but you'll look back and laugh someday.
Tom looks around and grabs a tablecloth from a nearby table, draping it around Emily like a shawl.
TOM (smiling) There you go. Now you've got a fashion statement. Come on, let's grab a drink and enjoy the party.
Emily smiles hesitantly, grateful for Tom's support. She takes a deep breath, trying to shake off her embarrassment, and follows Tom further into the party.
FADE OUT.
