[takes paper. skims quickly. his smile does not reach his eyes.]
wellman - "excuse me steve. i need to return a few phone calls."
stevie - "of course master." (slinks away licking his lips but looking sad a lonely as most other ad employees scuttle away from him)
[closes door. drops his head.deep sigh. three slow deep breaths.]
"you can do this ronnie." "i can't." "yes you can."
[head still hanging low. three more deep breaths.]

EVERY TEAM IN THE COUNTRY AND PENALIZE EVERYONE UNTIL WE HAVE A WINNING RECORD! THEY DON'T KNOW! NO ONE KNOWS! F U DV7!!!!!!!!"
[heavy breathing]
"STEVIE. Get me Jeff. I NEED HIM KNOW!"
"of course master" [Stevie scuttles off crablike, in search of bzz... his nemesis. the man that takes ronnie's attention away from him. "if only i could sabotage this somehow... but no... the master would be upset..."
