She's actually just committed like a little bit of a public service to show like, we'll do make these things up. Everyone's like, oh, make this up on a whole plot. Oh, it just creates such a story.

And he fought. He said, look, I feel bad for my kids. I feel bad they're going to have to hear about this. But I am not going to be extorted. I'm not giving a penny. I know I didn't do that. And I'll tell you, Mark and I represented these kinds of people.
