Part 7 - Chapters 24, 25, 26 and 27 Summary

Chapter 24 - As Hank continues work on a poem he's been struggling with, he receives a phone call from Jon telling him that instead of confronting Friedman about canceling the movie, the two made a verbal deal that covers Friedman's expenses if production was taken over by another company. Jon then reveals that there IS another company and that the process of transfer is well underway. A few days later, however, he calls again with news that Friedman has backed out of the verbal agreement. Jon goes on a hunger strike and presents Friedman with two options - honor the agreement, or Jon will start cutting off body parts and mailing them to him. When there is no response from Friedman, Jon (accompanied by Hank) goes shopping for a fine-bladed chain saw.
