Poor Baby Rottenborn had no fucking chance with this cross. He tried to discredit Marks by saying he hasn't done any deals with superhero movies. But the man has done literally everything else including franchise films. He also tried to get him to admit that actors haven't gotten big roles after their breakthrough roles in a superhero movie and it was just ridiculous. I mean what are you supposed to do with a cross with this guy honestly?

So on re-direct they ask him to go over all of his big franchise deals he's done and he dead ass says he's done so many he can't remember, but that he's done some for Chris Pratt and Paul Rudd. Look out for them in streaming series too, compliments of Richard Marks!

Next is Michael Spindler, a forensic accountant from earlier in the trial here live. They immediately objected and went to the bench. They did not like this dude at all. But basically he came up and tore apart the asserted $100 million in damages and outright said there were no calculations at all and no detailed calculations were made, and he couldn't think of a way to get even close and didn't even try. They kept going up to the bench to object repeatedly. On cross, Rottenborn did a good job against him and did the best he could. But I mean, all of what he said was common sense that the jury was probably already thinking. He did as good as he could have to try to discredit this witness, but they were so narrow where he said "Have you ever calculated damages for an actress in a female superhero role in court before?" Wayne asked one question on redirect but the stream was muted. lol whoops.

Next up is Mr. Q Score himself, Doug Banya (sp?) who did the weird Q Score stuff earlier in the trial. The man redeemed himself so much and said that Amber's prodigy Hashtag Guy and Kathryn Arnold are so completely full of shit and nothing supports any allegations that the Waldman tweets had anything to do with Amber's shitty career.

He took the timing of the Tweets and analyzed how many were negative and how many of them even referred to anything Waldman said in the article. He did an amazing job. I'll include a chart he used to show just how badly Amber's argument looked while actually looking at the data legitimately. If you look at the chart, you can understand his argument. The man seemed legitimately offended at how badly they butchered data analysis. But basically he took every spike of Hashtags and found what was being discussed about Amber during that time, and the Waldman statements were during a decline in hashtags.

He also found that exactly 0.06% of tweets with those hashtags included "Abuse Hoax" "Sexual Violence Hoax" and "Fake Sexual Violence" with another handy chart to show it off.

And then he compared the Q SCORES of the other celebrities that were used as comparable. Holy shit Amber is fucking trash at the time Aquaman came out. lol She also compared the social media followers of Amber to everyone else. Needless to say, she did not match up to Gal Gadot, Jason Mamoa, or Zendaya. I'll show the Q Score comparison because it's completely brutal too. Just eviscerating any argument these actors can be compared to Heard.

On cross Baby Rottenborn tried to discredit him. He did alright in some points, but this guy was pretty iron clad. He asked him a bunch of irrelevant questions as well and he just maintained that wasn't part of his research.

"I still don't even know what Waldminion means. It wasn't expalained in any of Mr. Schnell's research." lol

This was so ineffectual they didn't even re-direct.

Next up is a more interesting situation with Mr. Night, who owned the trailer palace that Amber and everyone got high in where Johnny supposedly threatened to break a girl's arm and trashed a trailer. They had to voir dire him because he was brought on for rebuttal, and they didn't know they would call him beforehand. Problem is this is a global trial, so he definitely saw something. He said he saw a clip of someone testifying that Johnny threatened to break someone's arm, he commented on someone's Twitter saying that wasn't how it happened because he was there and if anything Amber was the jealous one. But one of his former work partners reached out to Johnny's team, then they reached out to him and gave them his number, and he didn't watch any more of the trial because they said they might call him in as a witness.

Fucking Elaine I swear to god it's her turn for questions and she's just so bad at this. She tried to drill him about what he knew, what he saw, but he was just chill about it all while she was so aggro. He said he couldn't even remember who it was in the clip that said Johnny grabbed that woman.

"Do you recall if you replied to The Umbrella Man?" He laughs and says he doesn't know.

So let me go down a rabbit hole with you all so you can understand why this is so wild. Amber Heard's team, Eve Bartlow, and Amber Heard herself hate a few separate people who have been detailing all of the lies Amber has told leading up to this trial. Adam Waldman also spoke to them. They have done wild things like shit talk them on Twitter, trying to mess with their Youtube channels, among other things. ThatUmbrellaGuy was one of them, brought up during the Waldman depo as someone Waldman spoke to.

These people HAAAATE ThatUmbrellaGuy and a few others who have been constantly posting about Amber Heard leading up to this case. For those that don't know, ThatUmbrellaGuy is your typical outrage commentator grifter who complains about woke comic books. As far as those types go, he seems to be the most tolerable of them I guess? But it's still pretty much a grift. Make a couple outrage videos a day, profit, etc. Like as far as these types go, he's probably the least offensive of the ones I've seen. I dunno. YMMV. I don't know too much about him if he's been involved in dumb drama I'm not aware of. Share your ThatUmbrellaGuy stories in this topic I guess.

Anyway, Elaine cannot stop fucking up any and every name. She screwed up hard with the amica cream and now she can't even get ThatUmbrellaGuy's name right. She's also mixed up other names through the trial too.

But this guy just seemed like a down to Earth dude who just came here to speak the truth about what happened when asked. Anyway, the Judge said he could testify and we're on for a very interesting suprise witness!

Basically, he testified that Johnny was really social and friendly to everyone at first. He was even hanging out with himself and the other innskeeper. He described Amber as being annoyed Johnny wasn't spending more time with him. Johnny was talking to Night and then Amber said she needed to talk to him, and then she started screaming at him and he said it was triggering because he was in an emotionally abusive relationship before. That last bit was objected to because you can't suggest she's an abuser when that's a question in play like that. lol It makes sense why he felt strongly enough to come all the way out here though, and the jury heard it. He didn't seem like he was trying to sneak it in or anything. It's really more like he just doesn't get how to be a witness in a trial?

He said Johnny was cowering and afraid, which he noted because it seemed really odd to him and he left. When he saw him next, Johnny apologized profusely to him. And he was also very quiet and kept to himself after that. Elaine was winning a lot of her objections against Camille here actually, to her credit. This guy just clearly wasn't prepped at all for this, which is fine given the timeframe.
