Be patient, Franke hasn’t given up yet. That whole “last, best final offer” line is just like the previous “we’re not upping our offer” deal. Franke’s not going to lose to Robin.

Barry and Ted aren’t the brains behind the F9/NK deal, so don’t let their obvious incompetence influence your take on the current state of affairs.
