WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF HEARD'S REACTION TO HER OWN COMMENTS?

  It’s interesting that her voice wavers as if she wants to cry as she says, “So he finds out about the divorce filings” From some other source rather than TMZ goes very logical and calm then she does a “FACE Cream Wipe” its emotional cleansing gesture we usually reserve to wipe away extreme emotions as in witness a shooting, But then she goes into an odd whipping her fingers of the emotion and looking at if trying to see if she gave enough emotion then whipping again. SO we are seeing her go to rapid mood changes.

 DEPP'S ATTORNEY ALSO QUESTIONED MS. HEARD ABOUT A COMPLAINT BEING FILED AGAINST A NURSE AND HER LICENSE WHO WAS DEPOSED IN THIS CASE.

WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF HER RESPONSE THERE?

 Her elbows go out in a “bid to power

and then she does a “Adjustment Cue” Pulling down her suit jacket,

and blinks rapidly all cues that indicate she is preparing herself/gaining strength to answer.

 Then she holds her head down and looks down, and pauses closes her eyes and her head rises and she tosses her head and hair back and appears to, “get into character,” and she says, “ahhh , no, I don’t, I don’t believe I did then does a tongue thrust and glares with slightly pouted lips at the attorney showing passive-aggressive hatred for the lawyer asking her this.  The use of the words “I DON”T BELIVE I DID” are not common in someone asked a question about something a clear and specific as filing a complaint most innocent people would know with certainty that they DIDN”T file it.

 My Rough Notes in Preparation for HLN (Head-Line News Interview.)

 PROSECUTORS HAVE FOCUSED ON HEARD'S SUPPOSED FRIENDS AND ROMANTIC ENTANGLEMENTS WITH OTHER MEN DURING HER MARRIAGE TO JOHNNY -- INCLUDING A LATE-NIGHT VISIT FROM JAMES FRANCO THE NIGHT AFTER HEARD ALLEGES DEPP THREW A PHONE AT HER FACE.  

WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THE BEHAVIOR BETWEEN THEM?

Franco visit Interesting that he goes to the corner immediately with his head down, clearly knowing how not show his face and retain anonymity. She also keeps her head down and face out of view, I think they know they could be watched an she moves backward towards him to still no show her face, but to gain comfort up against him rumba vacuum returning to its station and he moves his head forward to give her comfort. Unless she has to be with him to get him how through security, her going with him would signal a desire to be with him as long as possible, to linger with him, a signal of a stronger bond than just sex.
