Sorrento
- IOI Board Member: Who is this 'Parzival' and how the hell is he winning?
- Sorrento: Well, here's a better question. Who cares? Halliday's contest is vitally important. I mean, it's nothing less than a war for control of the future. But this Parzival? He's not even clanned up. He's alone. We have an army.
- Corporate Businessman: And yet, he's got the first key.
- Sorrento: Yeah, he has a key, but you have to get three of 'em to win the contest.
- IOI Board Member: [interuppting] Our stock dove 6% yesterday.
- Sorrento: [strictly] Loyalty division is reporting profits of 28%! F'Nale?
- F'Nale Zandor: We're opening five new loyalty centers this month.
- Sorrento: [sternly] Debt Services dwarfs Hardware. Now, you really wanna talk to me about stock prices?
- Corporate Businessman: The shareholders won't be happy.
- Sorrento: It's not our job to make them happy. It's our job to make them money, but once we launch this little baby, they're gonna *flip*.
- [taps on the screen to planet doom]
- Sorrento: [gunshots shooting on screen] We call this Pure O2. This is the first of our planned upgrades. Once we can roll back some of Halliday's ad restrictions, we estimate we can sell up to 80% of an individual's visual field before inducing seizures, so picture this...
- IOI Board Member: All of this implies we win the contest.
- Sorrento: [looks up to him] Indeed, it does.
- Sorrento: Halliday, this is how you plan to resolve the fate of the world's most important economic resource?
