Bipin Shah has sued Yager for $100 million. He denies her every rant and threatens to crush her network--one that doesn't just skirt the law but defies it, taunts it, bedevils it.

Reproaching herself for having become the mistress of a man she does not love, Godreche attempts to rant melodramatically about her "sins," but does not have enough energy to even do that convincingly, looking away from DiCaprio as if that would distract her from spitting out her lines as rapidly as possible...
