Final meeting between Scott Ringer, Isabella Hallberg and Wendy Rae Rae I owe you an apology.
HallbergYou owe me an apology!
Rae Yes, I do.
HallbergBut why? I don't understand.
Rae When we invited you to become our head franchisee for the Scandinavian region, you declined. You said you had insufficient business experience. I didn’t listen to you. I encouraged you to change your mind. But you were right and I was wrong.
HallbergAre you going to terminate my contract?
Rae Yes, I am.
HallbergOh...
RaeYou do not have enough experience of business matters to be our head franchisee in that area. But you are an excellent franchisee, and I want you to continue as a franchisee.
HallbergYou are very generous.
Rae And also a good business person. And I know that this company needs franchisees like you.
HallbergThank you.
Rae And don't worry about Ms Tntz. Our lawyers will deal with her.
HallbergI don't know what to say...
Rae Then don't say anything.
