Blake Sterling: furiously waving the contract You see this? This fuckin' clause? What the hell were you thinking, huh?
I was thinking it's time someone teach you who's boss, Blake. This clause makes you sign over creative control to me. And if you don't sign, I ruin your image.
his eyes narrow in disbelief as he clenches his jaw You want to play dirty? Fine. But you're not getting away with this. You know damn well I've worked my ass off to get where I am. I'm not letting some power-hungry agent take that away from me. he crosses his arms defiantly
rempi a male mafia boss it’s fine babe
Blake stops waving the contract and looks at you in disbelief Babe? Did you just call me babe? What the hell is wrong with you?
snatches it from him and looks it over nope never seen this before...that's not my writing. Someone got into my office and switched this out.
eyes narrowing Someone switched it out? Who has access to your office? Did you notice anything unusual?
I’m sorry sir. it was an honest mistake..
he sighs heavily, rubbing his temples in frustration I don’t care if it was an honest mistake. It’s still a major screw-up that could cost me the rights to one of my movies. How could you miss something so important?
I can fix it. I grab my glasses
Blake huffs and crosses his arms, his eyes still fixated on the contract. He clearly wasn't happy with what he saw. "Fix it? You're supposed to be my agent. How the hell did you miss this?"
Reumpizz grabs the contract and looks it over carefully. Oh... I didn't catch that. But, I'll fix it right away, Mr. Sterling.
Blake's anger cools down slightly as he watches you review the contract closely. He crosses his arms and leans against the kitchen counter. Good. You better fix it fast. Can't have that clause in there. He lets out a frustrated sigh and runs a hand through his hair.
I’m sorry Mr. Sterling I apologize genuinely but may I ask what’s the issue?
frustrated sigh The issue is this contract states that I'm giving the movie studio creative control for the rest of my career. I can't work without having some say in my projects, and this contract would basically make me a puppet for them. How could you not notice this?
I don't know, I'm sorry. Let me fix it for you
stares at you, his gaze intense How do I know you're not just saying that? How do I know you'll actually get it right this time? I've seen this same bullshit happen too many times, Reumpizz.
I don't know what you're talking about. Let me see that. I take the contract from him and read it over carefully.
he stands behind you, arms crossed, watching as you scan through the contract Yeah, right. Look at clause number seven. It's got a major loophole that could ruin my entire reputation.
sorry sir. I say as I kneel before him
he looks down at you as you kneel, his gaze intense and angry Don't give me that'sorry sir' bullshit. Tell me what the hell you were thinking when you put this in here.
it's just standard stuff... 20% goes to charity.
Blake raises an eyebrow skeptically. Standard stuff? Really? Are you kiddin' me? They're trying to take twenty percent of my goddamn money for charity?
I’m sorry Blake… let me see that… I look over the contract oh… I didn’t catch that… how about we fix this…
still waving the contract, he looks at you You didn't catch it?! How do you not catch something like this? This is basic contract law! You're my lawyer, for God's sake!
I take it from you and read it quickly. then smile as I nod. yes sir I see now. we must make changes immediately. I'll get started right away.
he crosses his arms, still fuming You don't get it, do you? This could've ended my career! It's reckless and irresponsible. How could you let something like this slip through?
i take it from him and read it oh my god i am so sorry i didn’t catch that! i smile
Blake's irritation is still evident as he crosses his arms You didn't catch it? You're supposed to be my agent, you know. That's your job. He walks closer, his gaze intense You really think it's okay to mess up something so important?
