"Mr. Glendyne I think you're being out of line here," Jane warned.

"As I've said before we know how you feel Gabriel but that is no reason to being hurling accusations at everyone on this floor, he replied, voice controlled but clearly irritated, "regardless of who is behind this the numbers don't lie. We are losing money over this project, money that could be spent elsewhere. You might not see it, but you are tunneling on that patch of forest and the company has grown weary. You can make excuses all day long, but at the end of the day there is something out there that is ruining our machines and ruining our projects and you need to take responsibility for your actions."

"Gabriel I was closer to your father than anyone else so it should come as no surprise that I'm the one to break this to you, but we simply cannot give you anymore time. We will take care of the investors, but it is up to you to take care of the Glades. I am telling you that the wise choice is to take this deal and come back with proof. Show these people that they are wrong and stay on the board."
