@Rhain and Pbrks: It's a little unfair (for the main hook) that the manager was hooked in only by the PS4 and game, right? He also did hear the pitch... BLP, let's not unnecessarily imply greed. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 09:59, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That was undoubtedly not my intention, but I've made the change. – Rhain ☔ 10:19, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
