FS/ CAMERA FOLLOWS/ CAMERA BACKING OUT TO LS

Shaitan looked down at his phone and shook his head. He looked up at Mr Snit sitting next to Mr. Olig in the middle of a conversation while intermittingly eating dessert. He walked over as if nothing happened and leaned down to whisper in Mr. Snit’s ear. Mr. Snit listened and after Shaitan finished, he motioned for Shaitan to stay by his side.

Mr. Snit leaned over to Mr. Olig and whispered in his ear, they discussed the situation in quiet tones. Mr. Snit then leaned back and motioned for Sometimes Shaitan to lean close and whispered in his ear. Shaitan nodded and backed away a few feet and motioned to Mr. Snit’s other bodyguards to approach. At the same time, Mr. Olig motioned for his bodyguards to follow Shaitan.

Brad was walking back to the kitchen when he noticed the activity at Mr. Snit’s table.
