Reroll:
D100 => 90
YOu wanted so hard to see George see his revenge and his rage come through.
But instead, the case was thrown out on several technicalities, even in the civil cases.
You wanted to know why, but there was going to be more than that when George came back, with only a minor notice.
The Legal team did its Job, but there was something else. "You settled George, what the hell, why?" you asked, as Mike and you both looked at each other with befuddlement. "Five million, I thought yo
That was when George smiled and handed over several files. "Seems that we were not the only ones who were given sabotage."
Given sabotage. "George, what does that mean?"
"I mean, that despite me wanting Fox dead, I was going about it far to much, and they were willing to give me everything. Though unfortunately, not enough."
"Alright, what does that mean?" Mike asked.
"Our friend Jack, seemed to have been working as a private investigator for several years doing scouting and security at Colombia, before getting hired by Sony, for, get this."
He handed over the file and saw the stock reports. "Stocks in Sony, along with a pension and payments of 100,000 dollars a year."
"But why does this lead us to Murdoch?"
"Apparently, Jack has a way of getting things that studios want, blackmail, scripts, and other things." George said.
Everything began to fall into place. "Holy hell, he was playing everyone. He was a spy for Sony?"
"Well not just for Sony, he was in the FBI and pushing information along to a joint task force for Japan trying to stop money laundering schemes for the Yakuza, using their film industry to launder their money." George then smiled. "And the Star Wars thing…"
"The Star Wars thing had a purpose?" Mike asked.
"Yes, it appears so…" George then smiled. "Sony, or some of their possibly Yakuza-backed board members, wanted to hold it for ransom."
"And I thought me nearly getting kidnapped by the Triads and being rescued by Jackie Chan was implausible," Mike said. "Alright, so… what now."
"Turn on the news." George said.
The TV flickered on. "And in investment news, several board members of Sony have been arrested for fraud, insider trading, and corporate espionage. As well as ties to organized crime."
"The Yamaguchi-
gumi are pissed." George said. "And all because they wanted to get Star Wars money."
Mike then shook his head. "I'm going to get drunk, who's joining me?"
"I am going to my family so I can go lie down." You said.
George then smiled. "I hope this won't cause something crazy to happen in Japan."
You and Mike both facepalmed.
Reward: Fox settled out of court, but thanks to the Lawsuit, and other events happening beyond the scenes…
With the help of George, the FBI, and the Japanese National Police Agency, arrested several members of the Sony board who have connections to the Yakuza… and many Yakuza members were arrested.
Sony has suffered, not a fatal blow, but one that will take a decade to recover.
