| contents | We compute holographically correlation functions for giant gravitons in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM in the presence of monodromy defects through probe branes. The computation boils down to the study of charged geodesics in certain five-dimensional gauged supergravity backgrounds. In addition to the standard U-shaped geodesic, in the presence of the defect, we find an extra, novel, contribution from a geodesic anchored at the defect which captures the one-point function of the square of the giant graviton. |
