If you were really ready to run LexCorp, there's no way I could have taken it from you. Look at this as an opportunity for us to work together again, father and son.
When I broke away from you, I swore I'd never be under your thumb again.
It's my hope that you'll stay and rise to the challenge.
Your ego wouldn't allow it. I'll fight you on this and I'll win.
You better have something stronger than words to back up those threats, son, because as of this moment you are just another employee.
