Richard: Why ever not!? This will generate such a large income!
Client: I seriosuly doubt that...
Richard: Do you know something I don't?
Client: Well I've heard it on the grapevine that one of your least favourite people is running for the local elections soon...
Richard: Who?
Client: Jared Ashworth...
Richard looks as pale as a ghost at this anouncement.
Client: I can't see him taking too kindly to you opening a gold course just down the road from one of his hotels. Call me a coward but I don't like to cross a man with power...
Richard: No...I erm understand, thanks for your time...
Client: Any time Richard...
