Jordan Poulton in “Unfinished Business”

Claude Littner: I know you are.

(Jordan sits down)

It transpires that actually, this isn't your business!

Jordan Poulton: Mmm-hm.

Claude Littner: "Mm-hm"? What does "Mm-hm" mean?

Jordan Poulton: There's three parts to the answer I think because...

Claude Littner: Hang on a second, hang on a second. You are not a shareholder in this business.

Jordan Poulton: Correct.

Claude Littner: Correct. Therefore, you've got no right to negotiate or to give away a part of a business that you do not own.

Jordan Poulton: Mm-hm.

Claude Littner: Furthermore, and this is what I'm very upset about, having waded through these pages, when I got to page 45 in your 52-page diatribe here, you're only prepared to yield 15.39% equity.

(brief pause) That's not the deal! The deal is 50% for £250,000

Jordan Poulton: Mm-hm.

Claude Littner: You've got no right to be here, because you're feeding on someone else's idea, someone else's business.

(pause)

You're a parasite!

Jordan Poulton: Can I defend myself before I leave?

Claude Littner:Frankly, I think this interview is terminated. You can leave now.
