The new director of the entertainment company announces that he has come to the position of director because he is confident that he can improve the company's performance. He invites the new director to a dinner party, but the old moneymaker refuses to pay for the party, saying that he cannot take on the old timers on the board on his own. He also criticizes the young director for his lack of energy and lack of personality. The young director says that he does not understand the rumor that the elder woman of the company is extravagant, uneducated, and lacking in education. He says that the rumor is not true because he has experienced the loss of everything in life, and that he is not willing to feel the same pain again.
