you walk in/it is unusually quiet/a few pairs of eyes flicker from you to a woman you do not know

someone pokes their head into the break room/and says Staff Meeting In The Boardroom Now

you get a few more looks

you find your seat nearest the exit

the Director comes in and glances at you with a twinkle in his eyes

and you exhale as you realize

this is not an execution

but the dubbing of a knight
