One night, while staying in Green's lavish mansion --richly decorated with African art--, Green's unstable assistant George Meda (writer/director Gunn), attempts suicide. Green successfully talks him down, but later that night Meda attacks and stabs Green with a Myrthian ceremonial dagger, and then kills himself.
