“When I broke my neck, you didn’t even check up on me, Cage. So I realized you were a selfish guy, and you don’t know the meaning of team work, and I do. I also know what it means to be a star. And even when they stood you next to me, you still couldn’t get an ounce of charisma to rub off on you!” said Starks.
