Joel, in a moment of casual cruelty, says: "You know, I used to look at you in that class and think, 'That guy is gonna be huge.' Then one day I realized — you're not talented.

Ron, trying to be helpful, spills a tray of champagne on Joel’s lead Japanese investor. To cover, Ron announces loudly, "CONGRATULATIONS ON THE BIG DEAL, JOEL!" Joel is forced to give a speech.
