Arthur and Beatrice are junior executives competing in a high-stakes, physically demanding wilderness survival challenge designed to determine who gets a highly coveted promotion. Near the end of the final task, Beatrice executes a tactical maneuver that wins her team the challenge. In response to losing, Arthur aggressively kicks a wooden supply crate and screams threats at Beatrice. Beatrice approaches Arthur, mockingly laughs in his face, and goads him. Arthur immediately grabs Beatrice by the jacket collar, leading to both being disqualified by the course instructors.
