Enough Betrayal to Go Around!
12 August 2015
Let's face it. There are no choir boys here. Heading off to the big computer show with hope and a load of you know what (considering they can't get GIANT to run at first, the gang uses every method of sidetracking and deception they can. It turns out that Gordon's neighbor has joined with Donna's former boss to steal their idea. This leads to an ugly scene where Donna (somewhat rightfully so) gets chewed up by her husband. The person who gets really shafted is Cameron. She has added the sparkle and the personality to GIANT but there are pressing needs and Joe and Gordon have no loyalty to her. The final scene is to die for and we can see that there is a big new player out there. This is probably the best example of the necessary co-existence of the players. It also opens up the question: "What is the future of Cameron with her new found wanderlust and her hurt feelings." One to go for the first season.
