While arriving at court, Depp was spotted carrying a doodling notebook titled 'Built to Last' with a drawing of a green figure with a crown on its head. He was also holding onto his large, silver coffee tumbler, which is believed to be filled with black coffee. Depp has carried that coffee mug to the stand every day during his four testimony days.

While in the courtroom, the actor was spotted doodling with a purple marker and keeping a supply of jelly beans, mints, and gummy bears by his side. In one video clip, Depp can be seen passing the post-it drawing he made to his lawyer, who takes out his glasses and studies it while nodding. One user wrote on Twitter, "Johnny Depp bringing candy to the courtroom and also drawing there is actually so heartwarming. His heart is so pure. I love him so much [face holding back tears emoji] #JusticeForJohnnyDepp."

In multiple clips, Depp can be spotted sharing his candy and mints with the members of his legal as well as security team. One tweet is captioned, "Johnny Depp gave his head security what appears to be a piece of candy. I honestly believe he made a Charlie and the Chocolate Factory joke as well. Thoughts? #JohnnyDepp #AmberHeard."

Earlier this week, Depp was seen flashing a lucky $2 bill that he had in a plastic bag as he pulled up to court. One user tweeted, "A lucky 2 dollar bill. Class act." Another wrote, "2 dollars bills are pretty rare lol," to which a third replied, "Rumored good luck because of rarity."

Depp sued Heard for defamation when the 36-year-old actress stated in a Washington Post opinion piece that she was a victim of domestic violence. Though the article did not name Depp, the actor's lawsuit states that it relied "on the central premise that Ms. Heard was a domestic abuse victim" and Depp "perpetrated domestic violence against her." Heard obtained a restraining order against Depp and counter-sued him for $100 million.
