SARAH:

(Sighs.) Teddy... Teddy... Teddy. You really have lost touch, haven’t you? Allow me to be the one to enlighten you. Once upon a time, three guys put together a production company. One was a talented actor. One was a gifted money-man. And one was a pathetic loser of a writer who had somehow managed to get lucky with a bankable idea and the assistance of a group of people who actually had talent. Now these three boys all owned equal shares in the show. That is they did until one magical day, when the money-man was convinced to sell his interest in the company to the talented actor and his devastatingly gorgeous lady love. That meant that suddenly, together, the two lovebirds now controlled the majority interest in the company. And they decided the wonderful actress needed a much bigger part on the show, one more worthy of her many talents. And so, they lived happily ever after, in complete control of their show, season after season, and there was nothing the loud-mouthed HACK... (Takes a moment to recover her poise) ...could do about it.
