"You're playing with fire, gambling with the trust of the nation and the future of the Hawkins family as if you're striking a deal with the devil itself! Once you make a pact with the underworld, you become nothing more than a pawn in their game, and Hawkins Sea-freight will no longer be under the control of the Hawkins family!
