everyone. In fact, this could have a horrible backlash on us and potentially Sam could
convince the board to kick the two of us out for dissent or something of the sort. We must
realise whether we like it or not that Sam has greater backing from the board than us. This
plan simply won’t work.

Declan: Yeah you are right, damn my anger and frustration is interfering with my thought
process. Sorry for the bad idea. I am just unable to think clearly at the moment. Ughh, Do
you have anything in mind?

Ron: I was thinking about a plan to obliterate his image forever. Here it goes… We invited
him over for dinner at my place ok? Next we get him extremely intoxicated with the aid of
some fine wine mixed with some opium pellets I managed to get my hands on. (Ron gets up,
goes over to the mantelpiece and picks up a small box and shows Declan the pellets and then
returns to his seat). After that I will call a few women over and then together we pick him up,
put him in a bedroom and thereafter click compromising and embarrassing photos of him
with the women. We can then anonymously release those photos on the internet and make
them available to the top news agencies and newspaper companies. Then it becomes pretty
obvious what happens thereafter and lo and behold Sam is out of our lives and the cherry on
top is his tarnished image and reputation.

Declan: Ron, while this is a gem of a plan I personally don’t think this would be able to be
executed to perfection.

Ron: Why is that?

Declan: Think about it, Sam travels around with Z security ok ever since he has become the
so called ‘one man army’ of SARODEC technologies. Let’s assume we call him over, get him
drugged and then lift him into the bedroom. His security will be right outside and then they
will see the women entering the house. They’d think something is fishy and as a result they’d
conduct a check of the house. In my opinion the risk far outweighs the benefits we may reap
after the execution of this plan. Had he not had all that security and protection I would have
absolutely been on board with this plan.

Ron: Damn, you do speak sense. I did not think about this aspect, man nothing seems to
work.
(Both men light a pipe, recline on their chairs and go into deep thought, thinking of
something that could work. After a few minutes almost simultaneously both men shout….)
Ron and Declan together: I got it!!!!
Ron: Wow, crazy coincidence huh? We got an idea together. What are you thinking about?

Declan: (In a very dark and serious tone) Ron we have got to murder him. I don’t see any
other way out.

(At that very moment, the sound of thunder erupts through the sky, the power goes off and
the flickering of lightning through the window is the only source of light in the room. The
