Don Anderson goes to his friend/associate Harry to inquire about the problem. The writer uses Cause and Consequence here to get his point across. Harry seems to be a credible guy at the beginning of the scene, but you can see him start to turn into a bad guy as the scene progresses. Harry mocks the situation, Don said, “You know they have un-trained people working at the gut table?” which could be a possible factor of the tainted meat. He also said “Your test say that the meat we’re getting from UMP is clean, it’s not, I’ve seen independent test that say it’s not”, Harry goes on to not deny the facts of which Don presented to him, but expresses to Don that nothing illegal is going on and the meat is perfectly fine because it is being cooked with “grills that are calibrated carefully to make sure it kills every little bit of the bad stuff.” Harry already knew that the meat was actually tainted.
