00:05Danger!
00:17Football legend Arthur the King has passed away in a traffic accident last night.
00:21He was 45. Three-time Balladour winner, two-time World Cup champion.
00:24Widely regarded as the greatest of all time.
00:26Fans around the world are paying tribute.
00:30Your brother's physical recovery is going well.
00:32No new brain damage, but his cognitive condition you already know.
00:37I know, thank you doctor.
00:45Tomorrow's board meeting, you hand over those shares or I'll have my lawyers freeze your goddamn accounts.
00:51You and that brain-debt brother won't see a single penny.
00:53Dad left those for us.
00:55Your old man's dead.
00:56I'm dead.
00:57No, I'm not dead.
00:58This body.
00:58Tomorrow, you bring your people.
00:59Or else, this club is not up to a little bitch and some retard to destroy.
01:06Three-year contract.
01:07Eight million a year.
01:08Highest paid manager in the world.
01:10All you have to do is stand on the sideline?
01:12Stand on the sideline.
01:13Watch others play.
01:14Arthur, your knee is broken.
01:15You know better than anyone.
01:17Last match, you couldn't even last 90 minutes.
01:19Stop.
01:19I've only done one thing my whole life.
01:21Play football.
01:23Stand on the sideline telling others what to do?
01:25That's not me.
01:26That only happens after I'm dead.
01:37Max!
01:38Oh my god, Max!
01:40You're awake!
01:41So this is me now?
01:44I'm the idiot.
01:46You scared me to death.
01:47The doctor said you might never wake up.
01:49Since I've taken over your body, I'll take care of your problems for you.
01:52Take me to them.
02:01Bankruptcy filing.
02:02Sign it.
02:03Get out.
02:04You don't have the right.
02:05No right?
02:06Your dad's shares are split between us three brothers.
02:09You think your little slice is gonna hold?
02:11Are these her uncles?
02:12Abusing their own family without a shred of decency?
02:15A bunch of scumbags.
02:16Look at your precious baby brother.
02:18Can't even tie his own shoes.
02:19And you think he's gonna help you run a club?
02:21Don't you talk about Max like that.
02:24Bring him in.
02:30Rules are simple.
02:32Crossbar challenge.
02:33Brick hits the bar.
02:34You match it.
02:35And we'll talk shares.
02:36Miss?
02:37Here?
02:37On the pitch.
02:39Fifteen minutes.
02:40Bring your brain-dead brother to watch his sister fail.
02:47Watch and learn, miss.
02:55Your turn.
02:56Quit now if you're scared.
03:03Can't even hit the frame.
03:09Not even close.
03:19Stop wasting everyone's time.
