[Bobby is sitting at the kitchen table in his apartment reading a Charles Dickens novel, when he's interrupted by a knock at the door. Bobby opens the door and sees a small cardboard box on the ground. He carries the box over to the table, places it down and removes the lid. Inside is a stack of hundreds of documents that outline the doping scheme at Blue Thunder Bottling Co.]
Bobby: "Oh you've done well, Mr. Howard. You've done very well."
[Bobby spends the next several hours sifting through the documents, organizing them into separate piles and placing them into neatly labeled folders. Upon completing this task, Bobby picks up his cell-phone and leaves a message on Dennis Regent's personal voicemail.]
Bobby: "Hello, Mr. Regent. This is Bobby Cairo. The reason why I'm calling is because I have some very interesting ideas regarding our upcoming promotional campaign. Let me know if you're free to meet this afternoon. Bye."
[It's very early in the morning and Bobby realizes that he won't have a response for the next few hours. He starts watching SportsCenter to kill time, but falls asleep during the NHL highlights. Bobby is awakened at 10 AM by a call on his cell-phone.]
Bobby: "Hello?"
Mr. Regent: "Hello, Bobby. How are you?"
Bobby: "I'm ok, Mr. Regent. How are you?"
Mr. Regent: "I'm doing just fine, Bobby. I received your message and it so happens that I have a free hour this afternoon. Why don't you stop by my office downtown and we can discuss these ideas of yours?"
Bobby: "That would be great, sir. Thank you very much."
Mr. Regent: "I'll see you then, Bobby."
[Bobby goes to sleep for another three hours before finally waking at 1 PM. He calls for a cab, then quickly showers and changes into some business casual attire. The cab picks Bobby up in front of his apartment building and takes him into the heart of the city, dropping him off in front of the Regent Industries corporate headquarters. Bobby takes the elevator up to the top floor and walks over to the secretary's desk.]
Bobby: "Hello, ma'am. My name is Bobby Cairo. I have an appointment with Mr. Regent."
Secretary: "Mr. Regent will be with you in a minute, Mr. Cairo. Please have a seat while you wait."
Bobby: "Thank you, ma'am."
[Bobby plays video poker on his cell-phone to pass the time.]
Mr. Regent: "I hope I'm not interrupting anything?"
[Bobby looks up from his game.]
Bobby: "Oh I'm terribly sorry, Mr. Regent."
Mr. Regent: "That's quite alright, Bobby. Let's take a walk into my office, shall we?"
[Bobby follows Regent into his office and takes a seat across from his desk.]
Mr. Regent: "Bobby, tell me about these ideas that you have."
Bobby: "Well, there is one idea in particular that I was thinking about. Basically, it calls for you to step down as CEO of Regent Industries, turn yourself in to the authorities and admit all of your wrongdoing."
Mr. Regent: "What the hell are you talking about, Cairo? Is this some sort of a damned joke?"
Bobby: "I'm afraid not, Mr. Regent. I have a copy of every single document from the Blue Thunder Bottling Co. These documents implicate you in a scheme to brainwash your customers so that you can take control of the world!"
Mr. Regent: "So you think that you've cracked the case, do you Mr. Cairo? Well, let me ask you this: How do you expect to alert the authorities when you're dead!"
[Regent pulls a .38 caliber pistol out of his desk drawer and aims it at Bobby.]
Bobby: "Regent, you fool...I've already emailed this information to every major media outlet in the United States! The FBI is on their way to this office right now! It's over! You're finished!"
Mr. Regent: "NOOO!!!!! I'LL KILL YOU!!!!!"
[Bobby lunges over the desk and grabs Regent's hand. Regent fires off a couple of rounds, but they go off into the wall. Bobby manages to lodge the gun from Regent's hand and uses it to smack Regent upside the head. At that same moment, the FBI agents bust down the door to Regent's office.]
FBI Agent: "FBI! FREEZE!"
Bobby: "It's ok, guys. I have Regent incapacitated."
FBI Agent: "Good work, Bobby! And good luck against Outcast this Sunday."
Bobby: "Outcast? Holy crap... I haven't trained in two weeks!"
Bobby: "Oh you've done well, Mr. Howard. You've done very well."
