(Both of them arrive to the Opera House and there was Marguis, arguing with Jacques and Pierre)

Pierre: Look, Marguis, you can't do this to the Opera House. This place has been getting great business.

Jacques: Yes, there shouldn't be a reason to close it and gut it.

Anzan: What's going here?

Trista: What are you doing, Marguis?

Marguis: I am having the city close the Opera House, so I can extend my bar establishment.

Anzan: What? Why? Because I don't let you sell alcohol in my place?

Marguis: No. You see, Anzan, after your productions, many people flocked to my place for a good time and so many people would be outside, waiting in line, because our location doesn't have a lot of seats, so we need to extend.

Trista: You have an empty building next to your place, why don't you use that?

Marguis: We did, but still not enough seats, so I contacted the city about where I could extend more place further and they said I could have the lot the Opera House is standing on.

Anzan: What idiot from the city told you that?

Marguis: Josef, that's who?

Anzan: Josef? One of my former stagehands? He was fired, because of his smoking and drinking

Marguis: He was a member, but then was laid-off, so he worked at your place, until you fired him. He returned to his job-

Trista: And now he wants to get back at Anzan for firing him? Ridiculous.

Marguis: I have a document here that the Opera House belongs to me and you and your staff are to leave the premises, so these workers (points to people in vehicles) can start gutting this place. (holds out the document)

Anzan: (looks at it) Really? This paper isn't worth anything, there is no signature on it.

Marguis: What? (looks at it again and notices something missing) Oh, dear... Need to speak Josef again... You guys still need to leave before tomorrow morning, since that when we start tearing it up and any of you stay, you will be arrested. (goes to his hired workers) Keep your vehicles here, to remind them that they need to leave and what our job is. (leaves to find Josef)

Pierre: I have known Marguis for years, I am shocked that he is doing this. I know originally wanted to take your place, but I was given quite a wake up call and lost that ambition.

Jacques: What can we do?

Anzan: Right now, tell everyone in the Opera House to go home. Then you two and Claude contact the city and see if what Marguis said was true.

Trista: We will remain in the Opera House and contact the authorities about this.

(Pierre and Jacques left and got every staff member to go home, then the managers and Claude went directly to city hall to ask about Josef. Anzan and Trista contacted the authorities, but after four hours of going back and forth, the authorities hung up on them)

Anzan: Stupid authorities, they are willing to listen to someone from the city over the owner of the targeted establishment! (sighs) Any news from our managers, Trista?

Trista: Well, they contacted the city and they confirmed that Josef made the approval and Marguis is going to gut out the Opera House tomorrow... They did say that the city is investigating Josef, since he apparently didn't tell them that he was working it once.

Anzan: I hope they get rid of him soon. With the way Josef acted as stagehand, I am having a hard time, believing that he works for the city...
