"I've got a lot of people I need to win for," Earl says, practically seething as he describes "some wanker journalist" asking political hopeful and former Planet partner Arnold Schwarzenegger about the company's financial troubles. Sure, Earl would love to win one for the Terminator, Bruce and Sly, but mostly Earl wants to get even and get rave reviews once more. "I've never had a failure...
