Two people. Completely opposite. Somehow, this works.
Giovanni
Expansion
Milan-born. Reads the room before anyone’s spoken. Drives a Ferrari. Wears a Patek Philippe. Lives by one rule: Carpe Diem.
Colin
Protection
Birmingham countryside. Accountant. Lawyer. Both, simultaneously. Drives a Maybach. Wears a Rolex. Lives by one rule: Keep Calm and Carry On.
Together, they are the expansion and the protection of GRT.
Scene 1 — After Work
CEO and Giovanni, pleasantly tipsy, walking arm in arm.
Colin trails behind.
Briefcase in one hand. Adjusting his horn-rimmed glasses with the other.
Not a drop of alcohol in his system.
Not a trace of amusement on his face.
Scene 2 — Golf Round
Giovanni: “Commander, nice shot!”
Colin is in the shade. Reading the newspaper.
Expression: mild contempt.
The CEO complains Colin is killing the vibe.
Giovanni snatches the newspaper and throws it into the pond.
Colin watches it sink. Says nothing.
Scene 3 — The Smartwatch Incident
Colin: “Ma’am… is that a smartwatch?”
Ciara: “Yeah, why?”
Colin: “The CEO’s biometric data floating freely across the cloud is a known security threat. Remove it immediately. I would recommend a Rolex.”
Ciara: “…But the doctor told me to wear it. I think I have palpitations.”
Colin: “…Very well. Health is the exception. However, please disable GPS. This is a solemn directive from the CFO.”
Giovanni, stretching: “Here we go again…”
