Austin gets a phone call from Vince in his office telling him his time is up. Vince gets his limo driver on the phone and tells him to scream if he sees Austin. Vince is out to make a quick getaway in his limo. But Austin cuts him off and wheels him back to his office. He does various things like make him squeal like a pig. They have multiple segments in Vince's office which drag because they gave them too many segments.

They wanted to make this a show long narrative but you shouldn't feel any sympathy for Vince here and you are starting to feel that way. Vince put Austin in his in a predicament at Judgement Day but him firing Austin was justified based on those predisposed stipulations. This really gets drawn out with deliverance call backs, Vince squealing like a pig, and him having to predict a winner in the upcoming Kane vs. Taker match.

We hear Austin's voice over the phone...yeah, exposition about the camera aside, we're full into Russo's "making movies and telling stories" approach. These two have good chemistry, of course, but it comes off way too much like a torture-porn horror movie with Austin as the antagonist. This just gets weirder and weirder and creepier and creepier when Vince is forced to squeal like a pig and Austin threatens to recreate the hobbling scene from Misery. Yeah, a certain somebody is drawing on his video-store past. Eventually some actual goddamn DEVELOPMENT happens as Austin agrees to let Vince go if Kane beats the Undertaker tonight.
