Synopsis: | Haddleton is in Germany to finalise a merger deal between the U.K. company he works for. Whilst in the hotel bar with his German counterpart he is accosted by Grey, who claims they were at school together. Grey tells of lots of incidents that happened whilst they were at school - but Haddleton either does not remember or has only vague memories of. It seems that at school Grey was always trying to be one of Haddleton's group but they were not having it. They arranged for Grey to come to a party and gave him a spiked drink that would make him vomit and pretended to make jokes that he would not understand and other humiliating things. Grey turned to shop lifting for comfort. Items were being stolen from the Senior's changing room and one day Haddleton found Grey in there - when he should not be. Grey was wearing Haddleton's blazer. Grey was expelled and now years later sees a chance for revenge | |||||
