Scene - Henson's office.
Henson sits, papers covering his desk in an a rather incomprehendable process of thought and organization. He props his head up with one hand while he taps his pin upon the mahogany top with the other.
K. L. Henson: Indeed there has been a long conference call. I know, I was there. As Head of Talent Relations, it is my job to sit in on such calls and be one of the many that try to communicate in the negotiation. Mr. Young is quite an intense individual and has a lot of demands he refuses to back down on. It is actually quite commendable. I for one think this man should be given what he owes. He has been with the company for so long yet people treat him mainly with disgust and agitation. Even corporate here seems to rolls their eyes at his demands. But, me, personally, I think there is something there in such an individual who won't back down. Indeed Adam Young stands alone, as most other people refuse to stand with him; thinking he is either stupid, crazy, or simply inconsolably aggressive and that it would do nothing for their career to follow that. And indeed it won't because chaos never favors the lonely. The mass never has any reason to listen to the few! That is what it means "The good of the many over the good of the few". But I have always believed that to be nonsense, since that is only a justification for weakness in will power. Adam is a strong individual for wanting to stand up to the ever so intimidating Seth Lerch and his symmetrical corporate team, where as I would love to give Mr. Young a shot. I think he is worth the contract and the demands.
Henson shuffles through the papers and pulls out a packet that appear to be several pages long. Henson flips through them quickly and nods.
K. L. Henson: I have drawn up something myself, Mr. Young. Now I haven't had it approved by corporate (and even though I do have power, I do not in anyway have THAT much power), but I would like to meet with you at some point this week (maybe even slam) and discuss a way around all this usual bravado and strike a deal we can both be happy with and that Seth would be more than happy to approve. You might think I am bluffing, and sure not to long ago I would have been, but after that call, you have really shown me that Adam Young has true gusto and I want to capitalize on such a trait! Please have your people contact my people as soon as possible!
