In this clip, Taimak talks about feeling betrayed by Berry Gordy after being taken under his wing, where he ultimately turned down a multi-film contract after getting a cold reception from the President of his company. After feeling insulted during the meeting where Gordy himself wasn't present, he walked away from the potential sequels of The Last Dragon franchise. Taimak said he was traumatized and heartbroken over the incident, and that from there Gordy shunned him and never worked with him again.
