Looking to salvage the deal earlier than fully giving it the axe, Michaela tried to cut price with Netflix to a minimum of retain 5 p.c of her rights — ultimately asking for as little as two p.c.

Nobody does that, it’s not a big deal.” I stated, “If it’s not a big deal, then I’d really like to have 5 percent of my rights.” The girl stated she’d need to run it up the chain. Then she paused and stated, “Michaela? I simply need you to know I’m actually happy with you. You’re doing the fitting factor.” And she hung up.
She stated these phrases to me and I lastly realized — I’m not loopy. This is loopy.
