why did Chris start to call him 'Richard' when Will got on stage and strided toward him..

did Chris momentary think it was Richard Williams about to interupt his speech? what would he have said had he not gotten The Slap?

Chris: Richard!... im in the middle of this speech!!

Will: You almost got away with it didnt you.. i know all about it.. i can prove it!

Chris: Ladies and gentlemen my friend Richard Williams dosnt feel well, obviously.. so if you just go on with your dessert and coffee, and Richard do you mind to step aside and lets talk.. ok so uh, i'll be back in just a second..

chris starts to walk off stage

Will: You changed the jokes didnt you.. You switched the joke!!..

chris puts his arm on will in a friendly gesture and will violently removes it to the audience shock.. Chris attempts to reassure them by smiling falsely..

Will: you were the only one who had access.. you switched the joke! and the academy reports..

Chris continues to walk off stage as Will turns to the audience, the spotlight now fully on him

Will: He falsified his jokes when he submitted them to the academy..so his own stuff could be approved..and he could give you the Gi Jane punchline!
