The Samaritan Act 4 Scene 2-Reconciliation
.jpeg "The Samaritan Act 4 Scene 2 Notes")
Scene two is set on Wednesday morning at the chambers of the Principal Judge.
Basdeo and his company, the Mayor and his company are present. Justice Jaden welcomes everyone in the chambers to plan on how to escape the trouble from The Samaritan.
Mossi and Seymour conflict over the real problem and the hitch against freedom.
Jaden tells the members that they are all risking prosecution and even as some they argue about budgetary matters they should know the Minister for Local Government is very concerned about what is happening in Maracas. Jaden states that they should file prosecution early to pre-empt any legal actions against them from other quarters in the principle of double jeopardy. For Jaden this is a friendly prosecution in which they should identify the crimes they will be accused of, then get friendly people whom they should pay them to lodge the case against them. That would delay the situation and allow them find a solution.
Ted curiously asks Jaden what may happen to them in the event he dies while the matter is still in court. Surprisingly Mossi tells him that Jaden will outlive him.
Jaden continues to give them alternatives. He tells them that they can also halt the Samaritan, and then front someone to lodge a case and argue that the app is infringing on the right to privacy. It is intrusive and divulging information about people’s private lives in public domain. They should claim that the Samaritan, further encourages undue prodding into the person-in the contravention of the law. According to Ted this is the best way to go since it makes perfect sense to him.
Harvester claims that it can be challenged based on the right to information. Jaden counters this stating that by the time an appeal is made they will have figured out something else.
Basdeo suggests they talk to Nicole once more but Mossi warns them of her boldness that makes her not to be threatened by intimidation. Basdeo proposes that they give her a powerful position at the Municipal Council. Jaden says that the matter is beyond Nicole since the public is already outraged. Mossi thinks Nicole is playing a power game in a massive political game of conspiracy. Jaden opines that they need some box of chocolate for Nicole but Mossi fears if she rejects it that will be messy.
