Straker's reaction would probably what it was in "Conflict" - A not quite
conciliatory "I'll walk you to your car."
BTW I've always assumed that Henderson's "You're all a bunch of sheep"
speech was actually part of Straker's hallucination - Straker's subconscious
making Henderson a caricature.

Father/son attachment....Father's love.Yes.. probably should have steered
away from those kind of idea's.
Let's just say (as you,ve pointed out) that it was different in the
beginning.The resentment grew over time as their roles
became polarised.Would,nt it be good though if Straker really got the better
of Henderson,destroying his credence by defeating him politically,then
Henderson reveals or someone reveals to Straker that Henderson gave up SHADO
to Straker knowing him to be the best man for the job,despite all opposition
when SHADO was first set up.
And also whilst always seemingly critical of Straker,at times when it
mattered,Henderson it is shown defended him when others wanted blood.
What would be Strakers reaction to this be.
