But ultimately, wracked by guilt at the nature of the work he has had to carry out, Wigand decides to do the right thing - and appears on Bergman's TV news show to spill the beans on the real human costs associated with smoking. But behind-the-scene forces are still trying to stop the truth being broadcast to the public...
