A man, Frank, arrives at the Sloan Group, claiming to be the fiance of Ms. Sloan. He is immediately confronted and mocked by an employee, Rick, who reminds Frank he just got out of prison and mocks his audacity. Rick threatens to call security, provoking Frank by referencing a past slap. Another person warns Frank that a major client, Mr. Garcier, is present for a contract signing and that causing trouble could send him back to prison for years. Rick then dares Frank to hit him right there in the lobby, testing his restraint under the watchful eyes of everyone present.
