Do you know who Sam Gold is, Mr Green?

You should, because he knows who you are. He’s all up here, pretending to be you.

You’re in a game Jake, you’re in the game. Everyone is in his game, and nobody knows it. And all of this is his world, he owns. He controls it.
He tells you what to do, and when to do it.
Eventually when the opponent is challenged or questioned, it means the victim’s investment and thus his intelligence is questioned. No-one can except that. Not even to themselves

He’s behind all the pain there ever was, behind every crime ever committed. And right now, he’s telling you that he doesn’t even exist. We just put you to war with the only enemy who ever existed. And you, you think he’s your best friend. You’re protecting him, Mr Green. But with what? Where is the best place an opponent should hide?

He’s hiding behind your pain, Mr Green. Embrace the pain, and you will win this game.

If you change the rules on what controls you, you change the rules on what you control. How radical are you prepared to be, Mr Green? The more power you think you have in Gold’s world, the less you have in the real world. You are still in prison Jake. In fact, you never left.
