(Glenn, meanwhile, is in his office, trying to contact Ollie.)
Glenn (on the phone): Ollie, look, I'm feeling very exposed here. I've got my cock out, it's covered in breadcrumbs and the fucking pigeons are circling. Look, please, just-just ring me back.
(Suddenly, Fergus and Adam enter Glenn's office.)
Mr. Cullen. We would like you to leak -- (pretending to be a magician) Wow! This. (Adam shows Glenn a USB flash drive.) Don't worry, nothing major, just an email that puts a bit of distance between Fergus and the Tickle affair.
What, I go from being a turnip to a leak? Still a fucking vegetable to you, though, eh?
You wanna bring Mannion down a peg or 12, don't you, Glenn?
Yeah, of course I do. The up his arse Kensington Butcher.
(pointing to the USB flash drive) Well, this is the cyanide capsule we'd like you to break into his afternoon brandy.
This is it, Glenn. You're off the bench, back on the pitch to score the golden goal in extra time. Come on, mate!
Pick it up.
(After some thought...)
Fuck it. Why not? I'll do it.
Good man. Thank you.
(Fergus offers to shake Glenn's hand, but Glenn's still a bit, uh, sore...)
I don't need to shake your hand.
All right. Touchy, but not feely.
Just go. I'll just have a look at it.
(As they leave Glenn's office. Fergus and Adam give each other celebratory fist bumps.)
You are a brilliant bullshitter.
Yeah, well, two years doing press for npower, it never leaves you.
