Ed who's smile had completely vanished as had Les had began his rant, nodded, trying his best not to scream... or cry.
He'd worked hard on that script and it was good too! Sure he didn't know much about Adrian Veidt in the slightest, but he knew he'd been a super hero and that was enough for Ed, there were fight scenes and flying cars and it ended with this amazing scene with Adrian coming out of retirement and battling a giant squid that was attacking Manhattan!

Kirk rubbed Ed's shoulder and sat back in his chair, turning his head slowly with a half smile to Les "Thank you Les."

Straightening up in his chair, Ed pushed his smile, if he was going to keep this job and become the world famous director he knew he was, he was just going to have to deal with these people. At least they weren't anything like the baptists.
"Of course Mr. Grossman, h-how silly of me, I'll just burn this in the fireplace" he reached back across and pulled the script back in to his bag "now, we'll be shooting completely in France right?" He had to think bigger, these guys are the kinds of guys that spend millions of dollars to fly to London for a five minute scene. "Or will we be traveling around the world as Mr. Veidt does?"
No Ed didn't know that Veidt actually did that, he was just making stuff up, hoping they didn't know either.
Of course they knew, but hell, he was trying.

"Hmmm..." Les raised a hand to his chin, "Most of the movie is probably going to be done on set, but a good portion of the movie'll probably take place at the business that Adrian owns or one of his other get-aways. I'll have to have my assistant set up a meeting with Veidt to see if we could use the actual locations for the movie."

"Fantastic!" Ed exclaimed "I can see it now!" He could, but again, he still didn't have a script "A-a-and my budget?"
Ed had to ask, he was used to working with less than well, less than most people make in a year.

Ah, the part that Les hated the most. Talk about how much money he is going to have to spend before he starts making money. He busied himself by draining his Diet Coke and motioning for a new one and he thought.
"Let's say... a base of 10 million. Spend it as you need it. After that you can use how ever much you need, if," and he stressed the if, "Necessary."

Ed's chin almost literally dropped to the table "T-ten million!?" He smiled "Oh Mr. Grossman with ten million dollars I am going to make you the most amazing bio-pic this side of the Atlantic!"

Kirk smiled and put out his cigarette ordering a class of champagne that he wouldn't drink, he'd drink it, but never in any videos of him at parties has he ever seen Adrian Veidt actually take a sip from his drink.
This was proving to be a difficult character.

"That's what I'm expecting . And I warn you," return of the imposing producer finger, "I've got high expectations."
Les picked up his drink and was struck by a thought, "Oh, and traveling expenses aren't counted among that 10 million base, I have my own planes that will be covering that."

It was only then that Ed realized that Les's finger was about as big as his face, and the mans hands could probably crush in his head. He thought about Tor and smiled.
"Oh I won't let you down Mr. Grossman!" He drank down his coffee "Oh wow! How many planes do you own?"

**NEW DAY**
Daphne leaned back uncomfortably in her chair and slowly rubbed her stomach.
The coffee she'd drank (even though she knew she shouldn't have) was settling awfully.
She groaned a little and leaned her head against the wall.
She felt like she'd been pregnant forever.

Madison pushed up her sunglasses as she walked in to the cafe, looking all the stereotype of old Hollywood.
Big sunglasses, a fur lined coat, heels and a short dress underneath.
Her blond hair was pulled up in curls and lifted high behind her glasses.
She looked around for a seat when she spotted a familiar red head in the corner.
"Daphne Blake?!"

That voice.
She looked up and blinked.
"Jeepers" she blinked again "Billy?!"

"It's just Madison again" she grinned and came closer, only to notice Daphne's belly "Holy Christ."
