"Jordan Poulton: Hello, I'm Jordan 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 ÂŁ250,000 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."
