Trying to sweep the poor little widow under the carpet? Well, think again. I’m on the board of directors of this lousy company. Al and I helped build Pepsi to what it is today. I intend to stay with it. You drove Al Steele to his grave, and now you’re trying to stab me in the back? Forget it! I’ve fought worse monsters than you for years in Hollywood. I know how to win the hard way! You don’t know what hard feelings are. When I come out publicly against your product, you’ll see how much you sell. Don’t fuck with me, fellas! This ain’t my first time at the rodeo. You forget I delivered to Pepsi was my power. I can use it any way I want. It’s a sword that cuts both ways.
