INT. GROVE'S DINNER TABLE - NIGHT
GROVE
You don't understand. Macbooks never get Santa Rosa. That chip is perfect for them; it'll make 'em unbeatable. And I'm gonna run them out of the business, and let me tell you why.(He stands)
Steve Jobs ruined one of Intel Corporation's most valuable motherboards for us. For fifteen years we had her under development. Floating point computation lessons; OpenGL lessons, packet routing lessons. I spent hundreds of millions of dollars on her. I was gonna make her a big star! And let me be even more frank, just to show you that I'm not a hard-hearted man, and it's not all dollars and cents. She was beautiful; she was young, she was innocent. She was the greatest PCI I ever had, and I had 'em all over the world! And then Steve Jobs comes along with his iPhone interface and clickwheel charm. And she runs off. She threw it all away just to make me look ridiculous! And a man in my position can't afford to be made to look ridiculous! Now you get the hell outta here! And if that gumbah tries any rough stuff, you tell him I ain't no Xerox! Yeah, I heard that story....
TOM
Thank you for the dinner and a very pleasant evening. If your car could take me to the airport; Mr. Jobs is a man who insists on hearing bad news immediately.[Tom nods, then exits]

Grove awakens in a pool of blood, and finds DRM's severed head in his bed; and SCREAMS ah - ah - ah - ah - ah!
Dawn.
