Erica and TPS Reports

[user22113]

Erica Schoenberg is on the rail sweating her boyfriend David Benyamine. For all you fashionistas out there, she is holding a shopping bag from Prada. Looks like she did a little shopping before she came down to the poker room. I sort of let an "Office Space" quote slip during casual conversation which she quickly picked up and mentioned those dreaded TPS reports.
