[ this is the funniest conversation because he has only the vaguest idea of what a tv is, but the premise in general is attractive to him, so he's not sweating the details. ]
I thiiiink I have an idea. But before I officially offer you the contract, I wouldn't have to contribute my time to putting on these shows, right? I could just cash in on the emotions?
I'm gonna be too busy for that, but maybe one day if I get bored!
[ he can create a reality tv show where the contestants enter to win a ginormous grand prize by competing in children's games with a twist! but when they get eliminated it's actually for good-yeah, ish can create Squid Game in Shiv's universe why not. ]
Alright, so I'll give you a crystal when we're all said and done with this, and I can use that as a conduit to get the emotions from the company. You'll need to put it somewhere in the building, preferably in a central location. I'm sure you can spin it off as a piece of art!
And in return, I'll retrieve your body for you in the same condition it was when you arrived. Sound good?
That should do. You'll get a visit from me if it doesn't.
And yup! I think you're greatly undervaluing the power of the masses, especially when it comes to base emotions. The carnivals I ran before this had a couple of hundred people as spectators, so this is a huge upgrade for me.
[ an upgrade he'll need if he wants to fulfill all his promises and plans. ]
Do we have a deal?
[ he'll even do this the traditional way, holding out his hand to shake on it. ]

[And hey, she'll know pretty soon if there is one, so Shiv accepts the hand in a firm shake.]
