Characters: Nathan - A CEO of a billion dollar business. Tall and very fit. He has dark black hair maintained very well. Wearing a crisp, black suit, with a very expensive watch. Appears to be in his mid forties.
Sterling - Nathan's son. Seventeen years old. He is wearing a white oxford shirts and tan khakis with a red and blue striped tie. His shirt is untucked and his tie is loose. Both his pants and shirt are wrinkled. Like his father he also has dark black hair, but his is messy and much longer.
Setting: A large room. It contains two arm chairs positioned to face a large, marble fireplace. The fireplace is blazing with a large flame. On the walls are paintings, and tapestries. On the walls perpendicular to the fireplace, were extravagant cases filled with ribbons, trophies, and awards. There was no lighting in the room aside from the flickering of the fire.
It opens on the two in an argument
Nathan: Sterling you have to go to college, or you won’t get anywhere
Sterling: But we’re rich, I don’t need to work, I don’t need to get a job
Nathan: You’re not rich, I am, you’re going to need to start doing some work if you’re going to keep spending so much money
Sterling: But Nathan, why do I need to go to more school?
Nathan: Because you need to learn how to handle a business
Sterling: But you can just teach me
Nathan: You need to learn the proper way
Sterling: I’ve already finished school, I don’t need to go to more
Nathan: If you’re going to continue to spend money you do
Sterling: (Shouting) I’m not going!
He walks out of the room, In the background you can hear glass smashing, a bit later a car is speeding away in the background
