(Wyatt and the twins storm into GMSelena's office immediately following the match.)
GMSelena: Wyatt, Girls....
Wyatt: Save the small talk. I want them.
Edra: Stan.
Clio: Mai.
Edra: They made a mistake.
Clio: They touched Daddy.
Wyatt: We want them. Bad.
GMSelena: Sounds good. No problem.
Wyatt: Thank you.
GMSelena: Just one thing. Could you....
Wyatt: Ladies?
Chuckles: (resigned) Juh....

FADE in backstage at the Wakkanai Arena. In their lockerroom, the Holy Spirit Squad is packing for the trip to Choshi. Neither Mai nor Stan are in a good mood. In fact, they're quite depressed.
MM: "I wish Voiceover Guy would leave us be for a while."
SF: *sigh* "Yeah."
MM: "I know, Stan. We've been on quite a losing streak. I think you need to find another partner."
SF: "No."
MM: "Stan, since you've teamed up with me your tag team record has been abysmal."
SF: "Doesn't matter."
MM: "Stan, you're dream was to become the wrestler to achieve the Grand Slam in the shortest amount of time. You need this championship. Whatever we've done, the odds are against us. Kayfabe be darned, the board and the booking committee doesn't like us."
SF: "No, Mai. They don't like me. They have no problem with you."
MM: "What do you mean?"
SF: "They're tired of my lack of direction, my character, whatever you want to call it. I got a letter tonight from the OOWF Board of Directors, just before Midweek Mayhem started."
Fulton pulls a letter out of his duffel bag and tosses it to Mai. She opens and the INC drifts around to read it over her shoulder.
Mr. Fulton,
The OOWF Board of Directors has hired a consultant and he has suggested a few changes to our product.
Therefore, on the recommendation of our consultant, we have made a decision for the tag team ranks. With the new OOWF Tag Team Champions Texpress, Phoenix Rising and your opponents tonight Banned From Everywhere, plus our choice for a major push based on their promo quantity, Power & Glory, we find that there's just no room for your Holy Spirit Squad. Furthermore, though we can always find room for a quick high flyer like Mai Muyo, there's a plethora of big brawlers in our ranks (Moosehead Jack, Stank, Danny Taylor, etc.).
Therefore, we will not be renewing your contract upon its completion on August 27, 2012. We expect you to fulfill your contract through that date. Failure to do so will result in a breech of contract situation. We're certain neither party wishes that result. Also, you have a ninety (90) day No Compete Clause which will still remain in effect.
We wish you well in your future endeavors.
Signed,
OOWF Board of Directors
Mai looks up with tears in her eyes.
MM: "This has to be a joke. Like the wedding invitations."
SF: "Nope. I thought that too. But I called the corporate headquarters in Dayton and spoke to the Board. They hired some former wrestler as their consultant. Something about getting their monies worth from his lucrative contract. I've already contacted my martial arts teacher in Seoul and he's willing to put me up for a few months until I can get some indy bookings or something with New Japan maybe."
MM: "I ... I don't know what to say."
SF: "There's nothing you have to say. I know you're going to go on from here and I would imagine you'll going to have a great time in the Onslaught title picture for years to come. You'd be perfect for it. From there, the World title, Mai. With a little more experience, you'll be just as good as Firewoman. There's no reason for you to be dragged down by me.
After our match at Judgment Eve, we can probably get Chad and Zane, Alex and Fire to help you give me a beatdown.
MM: "No, no, no."
Fulton goes over to Mai and puts his hands on her shoulders.
SF: "It's for the best, Mai. For you at least. Let's catch the charter flight to Choshi."

(Wyatt is making sure everything is prepared for the trip to Choshi when he sees Stan and Mai's promo on OOWF-TV.)
Wyatt: Dammit, Stan, that sucks. Sorry to here that. I hate to see anyone lose their job. But you know what? It doesn't matter. What you and Mai did tonight was unforgivable. You KNOW you don't lay your hands on me. Ever. Mai made a huge mistake, and she's going to have to pay. You're just going to be collateral damage.
Wyatt: I tried to keep this peaceable between us, but you and Mai decided to go your own way. If you're not with us, you're against us. You better be prepared to step it up a big notch this week against Power and Glory, or else not only will New Japan not want anything do to with you, there won't be a Bingo Hall promoter in America that will touch you. Get ready for pain, Stan. Because when we're done with the Holy Spirit Squad this week, God won't even want you on his team.
(Wyatt resumes packing as we...)

*fade-in to Chris Evans, who has just seen Stan Fulton's promo*
Evans: *shakes head* *sigh* You see, Stanny? See, this is why I wanted to kick you out of the New Guard in the first place. The Board finally got their heads out of their asses, and they see it as well. You went soft, you lost your edge, you lost your balls, and now, heh, you've lost your job, big guy.
Oh boo hoo, the Board let me go, so I'll go back to Japan instead of trying to fight for my job. What the hell happened to you? You're just gonna walk away like hat, not even gonna fight? Geez, Mai's got a bigger pair of balls than you do, and she's a woman.
You know what, I don't even know why I'm even bothering to respond to this news. Neither of you have any drive anymore, and if you did, you both would be fighting for this. Hey, maybe Mai can pray on your behalf, and try to get you your job back. Personally, I think you got a better chance of going up to Moose, telling him that Bruiser Brody was a pussy, and survive to tell the tale than the Board has of answering your prayers and ever bringing that sack of shit back. Even if they were testing you Stan, to see how you would respond, you just rolled over like a dog and took your punishment. No anger, no throwing shit around and taking your frustrations out like I would do in your situation.
Now LD, that guy I'll admit, he proved me wrong, and that old guy can still go. Not as well as myself obviously, since well, nobody here can beat me in that department, but still pretty decent. I'll beat him next week, of course, but at least I can count on him to deliver the goods. So LD, see you for your weekly ass-kicking next week. And Stanny, well, heh, don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.
*fade to black*

Firewoman walks groggily back to the Darling Suites after seeing medical, escorted by Lucky. Fire has ice on her jaw. Alex rushes over to her when she comes in.
AD: Well?
L: She has come THIS CLOSE to having it completely dislocated. It'll be fine in a couple of days. As long as she doesn't talk too much.
LD: Ha!
FW: *through gritted teeth* Vry fnny.
AD: So she'll be good for Wednesday right?
FW: She's rt hr....
AD: Sorry...but we have our rematch Wednesday against Texpress. Here.
He shoves a stack of tapes, binders, and notes toward her. Fire grabs them, but drops the ice pack.
FW: Ow.
L: HEY! She's hurt!
Lucky, who caught the ice pack as it was falling, takes the stack of materials from her and gives her the ice pack back. She puts it back on her jaw.
AD: Oh...
FW: Whts this?
AD: Tapes of our last match.
FW: *takes the ice pack off so she can talk* So you can review how NOT to lose your focus....ow.
AD: Put the ice back on. There are other things to look for too, and you know it. C'mon, our stuff is ready to go, so you can start reviewing the binder while we're in the car.
FW: Bt I'm slpy...
AD: Why?
L: Pain meds...
AD: Oh...well, okay. But tomorrow we are hitting the street early and then getting to work.
He leaves. Fire watches him, kind of dumbfounded.
FW: He didn't....
LD: Tell you he told you so? Then I will.
FW: Mse jst gt crrd 'way. f he wntd to tk me out, he wldn't hv jst std thr 'n' lghd.
LD: Fire--
FW: I fl a lttl dzzy....wooooooooo, codeine.....I lv cdne......
L: Let's find a seat for you...
Lucky guides her over to the couch, and everyone else goes back to preparing to leave.

<Moose is in the back and sees Fire’s promo>
Good. Maybe with your jaw hurt, you’ll shut up and fucking listen for a change.
Do you think I wanted it to come to this? Cause I believe you do.
For all the talk of how clever you are, for all the times you think you are the smartest person in the room, how you outthink everyone else, you are completely missing the point of all this.
Do I hate the Darlings? With every ounce of my being.
Do I hate that you have decided to associate with them? Again, with every ounce of my being.
So, as usual Lisa, you think this is all about you. You think I am just being mean to you. That was always your answer, wasn’t it? When someone told you no, they were being mean. When someone said you can’t do that, they were being mean.
Here’s the facts. I lost one sibling. I am doing what I have to not to lose another one. You don’t see it, but you are lost. I am not trying to save your soul, I am not trying to brainwash you, what I am trying to do is beat some sense into you, to stop you from becoming whatever the hell it is you are becoming…….one of Them
<Moose shakes his head>
I didn’t want this. I tried to talk to you. You are stubborn as a goddamn mule though. The more I told you how much I hated it, the more I told you what was happening, the more you stubbornly went down that road anyway, just like always. I tried to back off and let you see what you were becoming, but that didn’t work either.
This is all there is left.
You pride yourself on being the best. Firewoman was the best. One of the best wrestlers I have ever seen. One of the fiercest competitors I have ever seen. Firewoman wouldn’t have walked into this match taking me lightly. Firewoman would have KNOWN that I would hurt you as soon as I got the chance. Lisa Darling? Well………the next time you can talk, you tell me why Lisa Darling didn’t see this coming.
I am not through, I am just getting started Lisa. Proving I am better than you is the only way I am going to get it through your thick skull that you are not what you once were. If I have to bleed you dry, then so be it. This is what you wanted, you wanted to be a Darling, you are now the enemy.
I didn’t want this, but now, I have no choice.
Trust me

(Wyatt, Mary Lou and Edra are setting up their suite at the arena in Choshi. Clio has slipped away and grabbed an INC . They enter a closet for privacy.)
Clio: Stan, Mai, I am so..so incredibly sorry. I mean, I know we've had our differences, and I know how well the two of you have worked...so incredibly well together. I wish...things...
(We see a tear trickle down her cheek as she tries to compose herself.)
Clio: I thought of you Stan as the big brother I never had. I'm really going to miss you, you big goof, you. And Mai...the thought of you being...alone, adrift...it...it just isn't fair...
(Clio pauses again to compose herself)
Clio: I know that Daddy's mad at you right now, and I understand why. But, well, Edra and I can get Daddy to do almost anything for us. Mai, after Stan leaves, we want you to come back with us. Come be a part of Power and Glory. Your faith is so strong....that's it! We would be Power, and Glory, and Faith. The three of us, along with Daddy and Mary Lou, we would be unstoppable. But we can't do it without you, Mai. Come home, please. Send us a sign. We need you.
(Clio cries some more then decides she's said enough and leaves the closet and we...)

We come up outside of the medical, area, where a very tired looking Victor Deniro sits in a chair. Ashley and Spencer walk up and hand him a cup of coffee.
Spencer: How bad is it?
DVD: Bad, real bad.
Ashley: Poor Lobo. How is Danny taking it?
DVD: I dunno, I assumed he was with you.
Spencer: No, he never came by the bar after the show.
Suddenly a realisation dawns on him, and he jumps up.
DVD: Crap, he's going after Ghosthead.
We get a cut to another part of the arena, where Ghosthead is walking, his hood up, and his Onslaught title slung over his shoulder. As he turns a corner the large frame of a pissed off Dynamite Danny Taylor stands blocking his path. Ghosthead lowers his hood, revealing his white dreads, and a smirk on his face.
GH: Ahhh, the bloody wolf's silent friend. Have you come seeking venge....
Ghosthead's words are cut off as Danny is not in the mood to talk. He grabs a hold of Ghosthead slamming him into the wall. This is not Ghostheads first brawl however, and he quickly breaks the hold attacking back. The two men keep going at each other, neither backing down. The momentum of their fight carries them into a crowded catering area where several OOWF members including Stank, AA, and Comrade Sharkov are at. Sharkov sees his two opponents going at it and jumps in attempting to add some damage of his own.
The fighting continues for a short while longer, until security and OOWF staff flood the scene. However even they seem unable to pull these men apart. Victor finally makes in on the scene, and attempts to head in, when he sees Stank standing over to the side watching.
DVD: Aren't you going to do anything.
Stank: Not my fight.
DVD: He's your brother.
Stank: He's also a grown man, he got into this, he can get himself out of it.
DVD: (A sneer appearing on his face) Your brother just put Lobo out, maybe permanently. I don't know why I'm even bothering with you, looks like you may finally be getting your wish of seeing D&D destroyed.
With that Victor joins the mass of people trying to break up the fight. Eventually the three men are shoved apart. Sharkhov continues to scream random threats, but makes no more attempts to attack. Ghosthead simply extends his arms and smiles as if to encourage them to continue. Danny almost seems to be baited by this, until Victor gets in front of him.
DVD: This isn't gonna change what happened to Lobo, and you know it's not what he would want. Save it for the ring, get your payback where it matters.
Danny looks like he will ignore him for a moment, before turning and storming away back in the direction of the Destroyatorium. Ghosthead starts letting out a deep laugh, and Vic shoots him a dirty stare before following after Danny.

Firewoman is SITTING~! in the Darling Luxury Suites, watching Friday Night Smackdown, drinking a Muscle Milk Protein Shake Chris Jericho comes to the ring in jeans, boots, and a pink Dolph Ziggler shirt, and that seems to capture her attention. Lucky is doing something on a laptop at the table. Quorras comes in and sits down next to Fire.
Qs: Hey, Fire. Hows your jaw?
Fire looks at her, finishes her shake, and then gets up.
FW: Lucky, I'll be in the gym with Alex and Alexis.
L: Sure thing boss.
Lucky goes back to whatever he's doing. Quorras sighs, and then gets up and goes over to the table and sits next to Lucky. She and BLINCy look over and see what he's working on:
[/i]
Wyatt: You?
Lexie: Thanks so much for the idea. Alex has been trying to get Fire to do this for months. Fire never would have agreed to a renewal ceremony if it wasn't for you suggesting the Medieval theme.
Wyatt: But this...
Lexie: ...was the last time slot left that hadn't confirmed. Too bad you overlooked a little detail. Sorry folks, this is a closed ceremony.
Wyatt: Alexis, you'll live to regret this.
Alexis: Oh, take it easy old man. Remember your blood pressure. And you're all about image. You won't do anything here in public, now will you?
Wyatt: Dammit, Alexis, this is about family.
Lexie: And you've been messing with our family for some time now. We've tried to be civil about it. Now it's...personal. I have to go, she's nervous enough as it is. Ladies, Wyatt. See you tomorrow night?
Lexie head back into the chapel, Mary Lou is in tears, and Wyatt and the twins are burning holes into the Darlings as we....
[/quote]
Qs: What are you doing?
L: Making a wedding DVD for Fire and Alex.
Qs: Including that?
L: *Lucky smiles* Makes Fire smile when she thinks about it.
The video of the ceremony plays in the background while they talk, although Lucky turns the volume down. We can occasionally see glimpses. We see the exchange of rings, barely hear the vows, see the genuine smiles...
L: So what's wrong?
Qs: I wish she didn't hate me.
L: Fire? *laughs* Trust me, she doesn't hate you.
Qs: Are you kidding? She didn't even answer me just then, and all I asked was how she was doing.
L: *still laughing* She's in her training zone. She gets that way. Kind of a hyper focus, with, really, a bit of dissociative affect so she doesn't really get that other people are even around and--
Qs: She keeps putting an S on the end of my name.
L: She does that because it annoys you. And ... well, she does forget. Short term memory problems are part of the pathology, but it's mostly to annoy you.
Qs: Still....
L: Quorra. Do you know how many interviewers Alex has had since he's been here?
Qs: Um... a lot? Isn't that normal?
L: *laughing* No. Alex doesn't really know this, but Fire has found a way to eventually get rid of all of them. I mean, Jamie Lynn Spears was a bit overt, but the rest were much more subtle. Calling in favors...all sorts of stuff. Trust me, if she didn't like you...you wouldn't be here.
Qs: Okay...I guess...but why would she have done all that?
L: Really?
Qs: ....You mean...even THEN? But they weren't even a couple like that until--
L: Doesn't mean that the feelings weren't there. They just needed a little...assistance.
Qs: Losing the annulment papers?
Lucky merely smiles as he turns to the laptop again. It's up to the kiss portion of the ceremony. Which they do. Aw....
Qs: You really would do anything for her.
L: My job is to keep Fire's best interests in mind constantly.
Qs: I thought she hired you to be her valet.
L: She did. Doesn't mean I don't have other responsibilities too.
Qs: Huh?
Lucky merely smirks, and finishes up the editing. He closes the program.
Qs: Maybe someone else has a bit of a crush on her?
L: *turning serious* No. My job is to keep her best interests and see to her well-being. That is job number one, no matter what. I took my eye off of that....once....
Qs: Trinity?
Lucky's jaw sets and he gets a far away look in his eyes. There's a lot of rage there, but he quickly squashes it and goes back to the conversation. Quorras notices though.
L: Yeah. And it's never happening again. There's no room in that for crushes, Quorra. It's hard to explain but...no. Not like that.
Qs: But she doesn't always listen to you.
L: She does most of the time. Sometimes I have to get creative.
Qs: But...this thing with Moose....
L: Yeah....I will need to get creative. But...I have to also understand that the outcome will be what it is meant to be, no matter what I do. I just have to make sure she's there on the other side. No matter how it happens, NO ONE is going to stop me from doing what's best. Not Moose, not anybody.
Qs: What if Alex disagrees with you about what is best.
L: He won't. Even though he will probably never forgive me for Trinity, he knows where I stand.
Qs: So you'd stand up against Moose and Alex? Doesn't that .... I dunno, scare you?
Lucky merely looks at her sideways, and smirks.
L: There's a lot those two don't know about me.
Qs: Oh.....kay......
L: *Lucky closes the laptop and stands up* Now, if you'll excuse me, this mere valet has to get some towels and water to the training gym before he gets skinned alive.
He busies himself with all that while Quorras watches. He leaves with the towels and water while Quorras is deep in thought.
Qs: "Mere valet" my ass.
*Quorras grabs the computer and opens it, taking the browser to Google as we fade*

(Wyatt and the twins are on the set of the live NHK television program “Hello from Studio Park”. Presenter Yuko Aoyama is talking about the twins brief OOWF career and about Wyatt's past, since Beth's defeat of legend Dump Matsumoto has been long remembered. The interview has been going on for some 20 minutes, and the time is approaching to take questions from the audience.)
Yuko: Before we take any audience questions, we have a surprise for you. Someone whom you have not seen for more than twenty years, and a legend in our nation. Please welcome Kaoru – Dump – Matsumoto.
(The audience rises and applauds the legendary wrestler, just a few years younger than Wyatt. The girls and Wyatt applaud and respectfully bow. )
Yuko: Your match against Beth Banner has been mentioned here, do you wish to comment.
Dump: I remember that occasion with great fondness. For one who even by Japanese standards was so tiny, so slight, to be so powerful, to perform so strong, I was honored to lose to such a talented performer. I also remember the man that you were, Mr. Cox. It was an honor to work with you and I much anticipated your travels with your beloved Beth. I mourned her passing that sad day 20 years ago, and I mourn your passing as well.
(The look on Wyatt's face goes from fondness in remembering to puzzlement, then shock.)
Dump: It seems on that date that your beloved Beth passed, that you died as well. The man who fought with such honor seems to have lost his way.
Wyatt: Don't do this.
Dump: I had such high hopes for your daughters, but they too seem to have been seduced by evil.
Wyatt: No, really, stop this.
Dump: I came here to see if I could see the light, but it is gone, replaced by an anger that burns...so dark, so evil.
Wyatt: Now that's enough. We didn't come here to discuss what YOU think are our shortcomings. Quite frankly being lectured about honor by you is like a prostitute extolling the virtues of virginity. We're done here. Let's go, ladies.
Dump: Wait.
(The legend puts up her hands and physically stops Wyatt. Big mistake. The argument intensifies and Dump pushes Wyatt down. Instinctively the twins go on the attack. Dump holds her own for a moment but eventually the legend fades. Others try to get between the twins and the legend as Wyatt tries to regain his footing when from the wings an object flies in – it looks like a baseball bat with barbed wire. Edra recoils from the object, but Clio dashes for it and begins swinging like a major league baseball player. Edra and Wyatt reach Clio and pull her back before she can hit anyone. Clio begins handling the bat in a familiar fashion. As Wyatt and the twins dash from the stage, a familiar feature approaches. Clio gingerly hands HDBMkIV to it's owner, Moosehead Jack, and the two share a knowing look and an evil grin. Edra hesitates, but then joins in the grin. Wyatt and Moose shake hands and we....)

FADE in on a distant corner of Enpuku-ji, the Buddhist temple in Choshi, Chiba Prefecture. Sitting in meditative contemplation is Stan Fulton. Being the only Caucasian, and someone that is nearly 400 pounds, it’s not hard to spot him. But he’s staying out of the way and trying not to intrude on the peacefulness of the location.
However, an INC is intruding, but this being Japan, the ninja cameraman is quite good. Fulton, however, is no spring chicken and knows an INC follows him nearly everywhere. But not to the bathroom, which OOWF-TV viewers are quite thankful.
“Thanks, Voiceover Guy. I’m sorry to hear about Lobo. I hope he heals soon.”
Thanks, Stan. Me too.
“Well I suppose I should respond to all that’s happened in the past day.
“I did receive a letter from the OOWF Board of Directors informing me that my contract, which expires this month, will not be renewed. I did speak to my friend in Seoul about staying with him once this tour of Japan is over. I did contact my attaché, Martha Rodriguez, about getting some independent bookings.
“Those are the things I did and said so. So let’s look at what was said in response. It certainly seemed like I got a lot of response too.
“First, to Wyatt Cox. You certainly seem to be more delusional as you and your brood sink farther and farther into madness. I’m not sure where you think I laid a hand on you, but I’ve looked at the tape and only found this.”
Fulton holds up his smartphone and a video plays.
Fulton lowers the phone and looks to the sky.
“It seems to me, Wyatt that you initiated the contact with your Halliburton to the back of my skull. Knowing full well that I’m still affected by the concussions I’ve received as a result of attacks by Ski Mask Guy and the Hawaiians. And if we look closer, it was my partner who came to my aid and sent you over the barricade.
“Congratulations, Wyatt. You’ve taken a premise, that your girls weren’t liked by the OOWF Universe, which in fact they actually were. The crowds loved them, the crew loved them and most of the workers liked them too. But you fed them lies about how no one on the Board liked them and you turned them. You took your premise and made it a reality. Bravo. Edra and Clio are now full-fledged heels. Thanks to you. And only you.
“So, first we have you, who’s trying to end my career and possibly my ability to function as a human being, claiming it’s all Stan Fulton’s fault.
“Then we come to Chris Evans. Our new OOWF World Heavyweight Champion. You’re right on a couple of things, Chris. I’m not like you. I never was like you. I have people in this company who actually like me. Granted, there’s not many, but there are a few. No one in this company likes you. Also, not like you, I didn’t take as long as you did to win the World Heavyweight Championship. So, been there, done that.
“As for fighting for my job, believe me, Chris, I’m going to. But unlike you I like to be prepared for anything. I doubt you’re prepared for much. Like what happens when you lose that Championship. When you’ve walked over anyone and anything to get there, you’re going to have to face all that on the way back down.
“Other than Ski Mask Guy, no one has really ever questioned your abilities, Chris. We all knew you had the abilities to get there. Let’s see if you have the ability to stay there. Because unlike when I was Champion, every person in this company wants to take you down.
“Clio, I saw your offer to Mai. I’m sure Wyatt saw it too so I feel sorry for the verbal beat-down you’re going to get because of it. I know Mai has seen it as well. But she’s also seen what you’ve become, inside the ring and out. Mai is a sweet, innocent, caring person. You and your sister are no longer that. I don’t think any of those terms apply to either of you. Mai will certainly do what she thinks is best for her, if and when I’m no longer here, but I’ll be advising her not to accept your offer.
“And as for this mystery former wrestler who’s advising the Board of Directors about me. I’m demanding a face-to-face meeting, in the ring at Judgment Eve 8 in Tokyo, Japan. Before I go, you’re going to show yourself to me and everyone else and explain what your beef with me is. If you can prove your reasoning for not renewing my contract is valid, I’ll step away. If you can’t, and this is nothing more than a grudge, I’ll do whatever is necessary to make sure my job is secure.
“Everyone here thinks I’m a joke. So be it. That just means you’re not taking me seriously. That means when we save you, you’ll never know it’s coming.
“Enjoy the rapture.”

As Stan Fulton finishes his meditation he walks out of the Buddhist shrine and then sees Firewoman approaching, wearing the all white dress of someone going to the nearby Shinto shrine.
FW: Stan.
SF: Fire.
FW: A word?
SF: Shouldn't you be resting your jaw? That was a nasty punch you took. I'm amazed it's not broken.
FW: I am, mostly, but this is important.
She turns to one of the benches on the walkway between the two shrines. Stan follows her and they sit.
FW: I'm kind of surprised to see you here, actually. Not many born-agains hang out at Buddhist temples. There was that one chick on Survivor who refused to--
SF: Fire.
FW: Huh?
SF: In the interest of sparing your jaw and my patience...
FW: Oh...sorry...I'm in kind of a manic phase right now since my regression therapy and Dr. Freedman says it's not uncommon for a little mania following--
SF: Fire.
FW: Right. Look...I still have some pull with the board since my days as commissioner. I can talk to them on your behalf...get them to rescind their decision....I mean, they didn't even spell "breach of contract" right and...what's so funny?
SF: *batistalaugh* You. Would help me. You don't like me.
FW: I don't...think that's true? I dunno, we've gone back and forth as to whether or not we're on the same side, and I've lost track as to--
SF: Fire.
FW: Sorry.
SF: We are on opposite sides. You don't like the messianic verbiage Mai and I use.
FW: It's not that I don't like it....it's....it's just too familiar. Especially when Mai says it. But....*she holds up her arm, proudly displaying the trust bracelet Mai gave her*...I'm trying.
SF: Wow...so you are...still--
FW: And...despite whatever else has gone on...when I was missing....in the misty place.
SF: Didn't we decide that was Japan?
FW: You went to Alex. You offered to help him with revenge, or payback, or whatever he needed. I may forget many things, Stan. THAT is not one of them. I never forget those who try to help my family.
Stan looks down thoughtfully.
SF: Fire, I am not going quietly into this good night. I've issued a challenge to the party responsible. If they can't meet it, well, then I'm not going anywhere.
Fire breaks into a broad, genuine smile.
FW: Good, Stan. Good to know. Cos we need a good old fashioned feud between me and you someday, and I'm looking forward to humiliating you in the ring.
SF: Heh...Likewise.
FW: Okay...I have to go...Offerings for Kami.
She holds up a cloth bag with flowers sticking out of it.
SF: You're going to hell, you know.
FW: Probably, but not for this. There's way worse things I'm going to hell for. See you at the arena.
Firewoman stands and walks away, leaving Stan to his thoughts.

**L.D. Williams is in his locker room, facing a camera.**
LDW: “Looking back, Chris, I have to give you credit. Not just for becoming champion, but for what led up to it. Every match, every promo, every attack, every alliance, everything you’ve done for months has been designed to get you into position to win the World Championship. And you did it, you silenced the critics. But once the excitement wears off, you’re going to realize that being the World Heavyweight Champion isn’t as simple as you expected it to be.
Funny thing about the World Title - you can’t just win it, you have to earn it. If you don’t earn it before you win it, you earn it after. That, or you don’t have it very long.
The reason that guys like me can transition in and out of being Champion so well, the reason we win titles again and again and again, is we earn it every time we step in the ring. Opening match or main event, full house or empty, night after night I make bad wrestlers good, good wrestlers great, and great wrestlers into legends. Can you do the same? ‘By hook or by crook’ will keep the belt around your waist, but it won’t get you any further. If you want to move from titleholder to Champion, all you have to do is beat me Wednesday night. To move from Champion to Legend …you’ve still got a long road in front of you.
Now I realize you’re not big on advice Chris, especially not from an old geezer like me. But the truth is, this isn’t advice so much as a warning. I will not be remembered for losing to a fluke. You will earn the right to be Champion, or I’ll make sure they don’t even remember your name.
See you Wednesday…champ.”

(The INC catches a very unhappy Wyatt Cox storming down a hallway into their suite. He opens the door, shouts, “CLIO”, then slams the door in the INC's lens. We hear what sounds to be a very violent argument between Wyatt and his daughters. The Door starts to open several times but is slammed shut from within. We capture glimpses of the twins, somewhat disheveled and distraught, apparently having been crying. We finally see Mary Lou coming out crying, her hair and clothing disheveled and what appears to be a black eye. She heads down the Hallway of Random Encounters and comes upon Mai Muyo and Stan Fulton.)
Mary Lou: [/i] Please. Help me. It's Wyatt. He's hurting the twins.
Stan: [/i] They'll fight back.
Mary Lou: [/i] No, they won't. They won't. Help me.
Mai: [/i] Let's go, Stan.
Stan: [/i] Wait.
(Mai doesn't listen and takes off. Stan sighs and follows as quickly as he can. They turn the corner and from behind Mai is taken down with a Kendo stick to the head by Edra while Stan gets his knees taken out by a baseball bat to the back of the legs by Clio. Wyatt quickly pitches the girls the industrial strength zip ties and bind Stan and Mai's hands and feet. Stan struggles but he is subdued by the girls, while Mai is still coming around. Wyatt walks over to Stan and places a strip of Duct tape over his mouth.)
Wyatt: [/i] Hi Stan. No, I never accused YOU of laying any hands on me. Just your little partner here. But, seeing as you're both buddy-buddy with her trust-friend, I figured you should be in on this. See, Clio came up with that idea. She figured you and Mai might get it in your mind that I would do something rash to her if I thought she was reaching out to Mai. Guess it worked.
Wyatt: [/i] You see, when you lose someone the way I did, it changes you, Stan. You never can walk that same path again. You always want that...revenge. No, I can never get Beth back, never have Ned and Nancy get their comeuppance. These two hate. Passionately, Violently. It's in their genes, from their uncle and aunt. And from me. Imagine, Stan, you're sitting there, watching the one you care about most in the world getting destroyed in front of you....and you can do nothing. Lemme give you a small taste of that pain, Stan. Just a little.
(Wyatt walks over to Mai. He kneels down and pats her on the cheek. )
Wyatt: [/i] Oh, I understand why you did what you did, Mai. But this IS personal. For you, for Stan, and for your bracelet buddy. Ladies.
(Edra and Clio stand Mai up. Edra kisses Mai on the cheek. Clio kisses her full on the mouth, a bit too passionately. Mai is helplessly standing there as Edra and Clio hit Double Elimination on her. Stan screams but can't be heard through the duct tape.)
Wyatt: [/i] Good job girls. Let's get back to the suite before anyone catches up with us.
(Wyatt, Mary Lou, and the twins dash back to the suites as we...)

**Darling Locker Room**
Firewoman is sitting on the couch drinking her dinner through a straw as video of recent Texpress matches plays. The package looks like it’s coming to an end when Alex rushes over and changes the DVD over to another one with specific Alexander, Firewoman, Chad, and Zane working with and against each other highlights.
Firewoman: *mumbling* What’s the big deal?
Alexander: No breaks. We’ve got to prove that us winning and keeping those tag titles…
Firewoman: *mumbling* Championships.
Alexander: Whatever. Championships, titles, belts…we’ve got to prove that it wasn’t a fluke and we can be considered in the same class as the legendary tag teams.
Firewoman: *mumbling* I know, I know. I just wish my bro…
Alxander: Here.
Alexander throws a few binders with screen shots of the Texpress offense.
Look these over too. Maybe we can see something to capitalize on if it’s a still. An opening or something.
Fire just glares as she picks up the binder and goes back to drinking her dinner. Alex walks over to the desk/bar area where Lexie and Lucky are working.
Alexis: You’re an idiot.
Alexander: Excuse me?
Lucky: She’s right.
Alexander just stares…
Alexis: Avoidance isn’t going to make the elephant in the room go away.
Alexander: Whether or not it goes away, we can’t…we shouldn’t let it control what happens next. Let her focus on the task on hand and if we win the tag titles again, it will at least delay something she’s not ready for.
Lucky: Ready or not, I’m not sure this is healthy. You’re trying to make her overwhelmed with everything else and she’s just in flat-out denial about what he’s willing to do.
Alexis: And we know what he’s capable of brother dear. If he wants this battle, he’s willing to do whatever it takes to get there.
Alexander: *whispered yelling* You think I don’t know that sister darling. We’ve both almost had our careers ended at the hands of him and I know that there’s nothing we can do to stop it from happening, but there has to be a way to stall it or something. He’s got no friends, no allies…if Fire and I can just win the tag titles again, it’ll give her a few more weeks, maybe months to realize just how far gone the relationship with her brother is.
Lucky: Good luck with that.
Alexis: Maybe we won’t have to worry about it either way. One small break in our favor and maybe I snap some of Moose’s bones and he’ll have to take yet another sabbatical.
Alexander: Speaking of, are you sure this is how you want to come back? I mean he did almost end your career.
Alexis: And that’s why this is where I come back. When we first got here, I admit I was scared of him and that was before I even knew he was Ket, but I’ve grown up a lot in the last few years and it’s time he learns his fear tactics don’t work. I will stand in that ring against the man who came close to ending me and I’ll show him it takes a lot more than he has ever had to keep a good Darling down for good. And just maybe he’ll finally realize we’re a lot more than just our name. We’re Alexander and Alexis, and well, he’s just not and never will be.
Firewoman: *mumbling* Did you guys just promo without me? Stupid wired jaw. Alex, can you get me another gross dinner shake?
Alexander nods as we…

Evans: So I still haven't proven myself to you? You don't think I have earned then right to hold this championship? Did that drop on the head kill some of those last few remaining functional brain cells of yours, old man? I already proved myself to you last Sunday. I faced you in a match where you said yourself that you had an advantage in. A match where we were able to be as bloodthirsty, as savage, and as violent as we wanted. And from the looks of things, I got the better of you in that situation. Hell, you're damn lucky that the finish of it didn't break your neck, and paralyze you. So you actually think that you can beat me in just a regular one-on-one matchup? Gotta say, not liking your chances there.
I've already orchestrated the permanent retirements of Outback Jack and Davin Moreland. So it doesn't matter what you think you're gonna do. My name WILL be remembered. I held a title last year for a longer period of time than anyone else in the business, 294 days. 343 days in total, counting today. And it'll be 346 days after I beat you this Wednesday.
You're persistant, I'll give you that. You wouldn't have survived here if you weren't. But that won't be enough to take this title away from me. In fact, I've already started planning the post-match celebration. And you wouldn't wanna spoil that for me, would you?

~~~ Chad Madison and Zane Myers stand in front of the OOWF Banner chugging bottles of Aquafina ~~~
Zane: What a week it has been for The Texpress. Win the World Tag Team Championships last Sunday and follow that up with Win #100 on Wednesday. We are overwhelmed with the number of emails, tweets, Facebook posts and other congratulations the fans have sent us.
Chad: But now, It's time to get back to business. We have Championships to defend. Normally we'd come out here and tell you we'll take on all comers, we won't duck any challenge. But we all know who pulls the strings around here.
Zane: So instead of just saying it, We did something different this time. Selena has on her desk a dozen blank World Tag Team Championship Contracts. Signed, and just waiting for her to fill in the opponents. You want a shot at these? (pats the belt worn around his waist) All you have to do is talk to her. So if you feel denied or overlooked, there's no one but yourself to blame.
Chad: Holy Spirit Squad? Step on up. Banned From Everywhere? Walk in that door. Power & Glory? Put your money where Wyatt's mouth is. Anyone else interested? Have at it.
Zane: First on the docket is a rematch with Phoenix Rising. Alex, Firewoman, Chad and I have a history of tearing houses down together. I anticipate nothing less this time around. The people of Chosi, Japan (Huge Cheap Pop) are about to see what it's like when the two best tag teams in the business today go head to head.
Chad: So Alex, Lisa, bring your stethoscopes and clipboards. Let's put on a Wrestling Clinic on Wednesday

(The scene is what appears to be a press conference. On the dais is Wyatt Cox, flanked by Edra holding a Kendo stick and Clio holding a baseball bat. To one side is Mary Lou and next to her is GMSelena and Chuckles to keep an eye on things and Security is in evidence as well. Wyatt speaks to the assemblage.)
For those of you who don't know, I am Wyatt Cox, I host a daily radio program in the US called American Sunrise, I was previously a professional wrestler and trainer alongside my late partner Beth Banner in the US wrestling organization the UNWF, and I currently train and manage my daughters known as Power and Glory here in the OOWF. At the insistence of OOWF GM Selena al-Tikriti, I have called this press conference to address the unprovoked attack that took place on myself and my daughters while we were appearing live on the NHK TV Program “Hello from Studio Park”. Now I honestly don't believe the producers knew what retired wrestler Dump Matsumoto had in mind when she came out and began attacking me and my daughters live on national Television. We have never said an unkind word about Matsumoto in the years following her loss to my late partner Beth Banner. In fact we pushed hard for a rematch, but her promoters were insistent that any rematch take place here. A tour of Japan was in our plans when my beloved Beth was tragically murdered in the ring.
When Matsumoto came out and began verbally attacking my daughters and me, we went to walk off the set, but she wouldn't allow that. When we insisted we leave, words were exchanged and Matsumoto made the worst mistake of her life when she assaulted me on camera. Fortunately my daughters jumped to my defense as did another friend who threw in a defensive weapon to keep the attackers off of us as we left the stage.
After conference with counsel we have decided not to file any charges against Matsumoto because of her vicious and unprovoked assault on me.
(There is a disturbance at the rear of the hall as the Holy Spirit Squad appears and is demanding to be heard.)
SECURITY! Keep them back. They get their beating Wednesday night. Mai, you get your payback, just like that ancient legend did, live on TV. Stan, you're just collateral damage. Wednesday night, Midweek Mayhem, live from the Soy Sauce capital of the world, Choshi Japan, the Holy Spirit Squad will experience three things: Power, Glory, and Pain, and ride that train to glory and be in the arms of their Lord forevermore. Amen!
(As Wyatt steps down from the dais, Edra and Clio set down their weapons, step over to GMSelina, give her a hug, then hit Double Elimination on Chuckles which breaks up GMSelina as they pick up their weapons and Wyatt, Mary Lou, and the twins exit the room as we...)

Ricky Soaring Eagle is walking down the hall backstage carrying a small cage covered in a towel and a duffle bag. He stops in front of Rabbit Mask's door. Ricky sets his things down and pulls something out of his pocket. He holds up... a rabbit's foot
"A symbol of luck. The superstitious carry these around as if it will help them in their endeavors. Now Usagi, you have taken the name of the rabbit, and you have the funny ears to go along with it. I thought about giving you this rabbit's foot to bring you some luck against me this week. But the more I thought about it, the more I realized you will need WAY more luck than this little foot could provide."
Ricky kneels and pulls the blanket off the cage, revealing a rather large, jet black rabbit inside. He pulls the animal out and pets it a few times, then grabs it by the scruff of the neck and stands.
"So Rabbit mask, I brought you a good luck charm. You're going to need every ounce of it you can squeeze out if you plan on surviving in the ring with me."
Ricky reaches in the bag with his other had and pulls out a nail gun. In a flash, he presses the rabbit against the door and puts several nails through each of it's ears. The poor animals is sqealing and thrashing back and forth. Ricky grabs one of it's rear legs and nails it to the door as well. the blood is pouring out of it's wounds and in short order, the animal quits movigs, with soft sqeals still being heard every few moments.
"I can think of someone else who could use a little luck"
Ricky grabs a serrated blasde out of the bag and saws off one of it's front paws. He heads down the hallway, and the camera focuses on a door at the end of the hall... The Destroytarium

FADE back in at an arena in Kamisu for an OOWF house show. Preparing for their match against Banned From Everywhere is the Holy Spirit Squad. Mai Muyo is stretching on the floor while Stan Fulton is taping his wrists. There’s a knock on the door and Fulton stands, picks up his axe handle (which he carries with him again since the attack). He goes to the door and opens it, stepping back out of the doorway. Thankfully, it’s just an SFJ.
SFJ: “Uh, Mr. Fulton. Hi. Can I talk to you and Ms. Muyo?”
MM: “Let her in, Stan.”
Fulton lowers the axe handle and steps aside. The SFJ comes in with her cameraperson and Fulton closes the door.
SFJ: “Thank you. Can you tell us what happened with you and Power & Glory?”
MM: “We responded to what we thought was an attack and were attacked ourselves. I rushed in and didn’t listen to my partner. That is all on me. I need to do a better job of listening to Stan and following his direction. He’s been with the OOWF longer than I have.”
SF: “Don’t beat yourself up about it, Mai. We both went in and we both paid the price. Granted, it wasn’t that bad. We’ve both been attacked backstage and we’ve both survived. It was a one time thing.”
SFJ: “You don’t expect it will happen again?”
SF: “Oh, I expect it will be tried again, maybe with us, maybe not, but the thing is, Miss...?”
SFJ: “Kumiko.”
SF: “Kumiko, no one is going to believe ANYTHING that Wyatt, Clio, Edra or Mary Lou says or does. They’ve played their last hand. That’s the problem with evil. It’s easy to see once you’ve been exposed to it. And it’s easy to avoid now too. See the story The Boy Who Cried Wolf if you don’t believe me.”
MM: “Now when those evil girls really do need help, no one will help them. They’re on an island.”
SF: “And when Moosehead Jack turns on them, and he will, no one will feel sorry for them either.”
SFJ: “Doesn’t sound very Christian to not feel for them.”
SF: “We’re here to save the OOWF, Kumiko. Consider it a Crusade. I mean, c’mon. He paid to have two people that look like me and Mai to pretend break up his quote-unquote press conference. We've been here since yesterday.
"It’s sad that he wants that much attention. He’s a desperate man now. Did you know that I looked at the last Arbitron ratings and American Sunrise has dropped since Wyatt started down this path.”
MM: “Stan, that sounds like jealousy.”
SF: “There was probably some of that in there.”
MM: “The point I think we’re trying to make is this, Kumiko. We’re good people. We’re trying to help this company and those that work here that there’s a better way. And we only have to point to Wyatt and Power & Glory to see the other side.”
SFJ: “Stan, you recently spoke to Firewoman.”
SF: “She stopped to talk to me, yes.”
SFJ: “Are you...?”
SF: “Working with Alex and Fire? Besties? Honorary Darlings? No.”
MM: “She is wearing my bracelet!”
SF: “Yes, she is, Mai. I think she’s got a soft spot for you.”
MM: “And you’re nothing but soft spots. So we need to do more training tomorrow. But now we’ve got a match against Bill and Justin. Let’s get to it. If you’ll excuse us?”
Mai helps the SFJ to the door and it closes as we FADE.
FADE back in during the house show and we join the match between Banned From Everywhere and the Holy Spirit Squad in progress. Justin has Mai down in the middle of the ring, climbs the turnbuckled and yells, “DOUGHAWK!” The lights go out, we hear the sounds of fireworks, a Twinkie’s filling being added and a rhino mating. The lights come on, Justin is on the Iranian Announce Table wearing nothing but a diaper. Awesome Bill is being carried by Fulton and Mai is on the turnbuckle. Fulton holds Bill sideways. Mai leaps and drops an elbow across Bill’s throat while Fulton side slams him. DIVINE RETRIBUTION! Mai covers. 1... 2... 3!
FADE.
FADE back in on the lockerroom of the Holy Spirit Squad after the match. The SFJ is allowed back in.
SFJ: “Congratulations.”
MM: “Thanks!”
SF: “It’s only one match. We have a lot of work to do.”
Fulton pulls the camera right into his face.
SF: “Wyatt Cox. You keep claiming we’re attacking your family. But all that’s been done is you attacking Mai and myself. Well, this week the Holy Spirit Squad embarks on their First Crusade. And you’re the Turks. Though this time, the Turks don’t stand a chance.”
Mai pulls the camera to face her.
MM: “We will save you.”

We come up in the Destroyatorium, where a still very angry Dynamite Danny Taylor is pacing around. He has a scowl on his face, but no longer seems ready to fly off the handle. Victor, Ashley and Spencer sit watching.
Spencer: He is not taking this well.
DVD: Well, all of is friends around here seem to either end up hurt or gone. It's not an easy thing for a man that has not had many over the years.
Ashley: Is there anything we can do to help calm him down.
DVD: Give him time and hope noting else crazy happens I guess?
At this, a thump is heard at the door, thankfully Danny doesn't notice it, but the other three do. Spencer motions to Ashley and Victor that she will check, and Shotglass runs at her feet to check as well. They open the door, and Shotglass immediately starts growling, and Spencer let's out a little shriek. Danny immediately rushes over, followed closely by Ashley and Victor. All three see a severed rabbit leg sitting there, and the reactions are mixed. Victor looks sad, both Ashley and Spencer look disgusted, and Danny just looks angry. Danny starts to head out the door, but Victor blocks his path.
DVD: I get it bro, I really do, but fighting multiple fronts now? Be smart man, be smart.
For a moment, it seems like Danny will still walk forward, but he finally turns and storms off deeper into the bar. Victor seems to visibly shrink as all the air leaves his body.
Ashley: I will go check on him.
Ashley heads off to speak with Danny with Shotglass right on her heel. Spencer turns and makes eye contact with Victor.
Spencer: What's going on with Danny? He's starting to scare me.
DVD: Making friends has not always been easy for him, yet sense we've been here, all the ones he's had, have been hurt or left. It's wearing on him, and me if I'm being honest.
Spencer: So what do we do?
DVD: (let's out a big sigh) I don't know Spence, I really don't. We need help babe, but I don't know where to turn.

(It's quiet time in the Power and Glory suite Edra and Clio leave the room to enjoy their new One OK Rock CD. Wyatt and Mary Lou are talking on the couch but she sees the INC and points to it and leans over and kisses Wyatt and leaves the room.)
Wyatt: Hi. Good to see Stan and Mai are OK. Congrats on proving that you're as good as the twins are. You beat Banned from Everywhere. Nice.
Now, Stan, you said some things that need a little correction. Part of the reason that the raw numbers are down is that we lost four big radio stations. The reason we lost them is that one of the big radio networks gave their owners a big big check to put on their brand new 24 hour sports network. We're still doing good, Stan, no revenue lost, and odds are by the time our listeners get done with the stations in those markets, we'll be back on. Of course, the big boys keep pounding away at us. Interesting that a little early morning show attracts all this attention from the big boys.
Funny, Stan. You and Mai were the first two to see Edra and Clio. You marveled at how well they performed. You know in your heart today they will be two of the best ever to grace an OOWF ring. When we offered you the chance to come to Ely and saw how we trained, what the training could do, you jumped at the change to learn what I knew. You thought you knew what I was doing...what the secrets were, and once you went to the mountain and discovered God, it was like you were more interested in studying the Bible than the techniques. You found God, but lost your way, Stan. And Mai, that proud sister of Ecosystem, she's just a lost little puppy tagging along at your heels. So sad. You both had so much promise. Now, look at you. Do you even remember the basics, Stan? The focus, the training, the nutrition? You're so hung up on fruits and salads I thought you became a Californian!
What you and Mai got this weekend was a wake up call. Power and Glory are tired of being stacked up against comedy teams. They're not the trained dancing monkeys that the OOWF thought they were getting. They want...they deserve...they demand...to be taken seriously. Whoever we have to hurt to make it happen, to get them the respect they deserve, they will.
I'll admit it, Stan, I broke one of my biggest rules. I made this personal. That's because when you and Mai walked out on us, not once, but twice, it made the girls realize how things were going to have to be. It wouldn't surprise me if you and Mai collaborated with your trust buddies and stole Mary Lou's dream wedding. That's OK, we have other plans, but we're not telling you. By the time Stan meets his Waterloo on August 27th, Mary Lou will be my bride, and Stan Fulton will be heading for yet another Bingo Hall.
It's sad, Stan. Because Clio really meant what she said. They loved you and Mai. Especially Mai. But now, like Ned used to say, if you can't join them, beat them...senseless. Get ready for Power, Glory, and Pain. And may God have mercy on your immortal souls. Because we won't.
(Wyatt shuts off the light and leaves the room as we....)

*Stank is sitting in the catering area reading an online newspaper off his IPad. He spies Dashing Victor Dinero walking in and hovering at the edge of his periphery. From the other side of his vision Attitude adjuster approaches holding a scalding hot venti Americano from the St***b**ks (sponsorship pending) stand.*
Stank - You spill that on me Alan, I swear to CHRIST-
AA - Relax. I fully intend to drink this beverage, from a popular coffee franchise of ideterminate origin looking to take advantage of the spot left open by the departure of D**K*N D**G*N*TS sponsorship since Davin Moreland's untimely exit.
*Attitude Adjuster sits across from Stank then takes a sip of his coffee.*
AA - Why isn't your IPad logo blurred?
Stank - Apple has started sponsoring some of our shows.
AA - Then... why isn't IPad in bold?
Stank - I'm not all that happy about the deal.
AA - Don't tell me you're one of *those* people.
Stank - What people?
AA - A PC.
Stank - Huh?
AA - You know... I'm an Apple, and I'm a PC.
Stank - Oh. No I wouldn't go that far. I'm just not one to make a big deal about having an IPad.
AA - Then why do you have one?
Stank - We all got one. Where's yours?
AA - I didn't get a flippin IPAD!
Stank - Weren't you at the meeting?
AA - WHAT MEETING?
Stank - Oh... You should probably talk to Selena.
AA - Believe me, I will!
Stank - Just promise me once you get one you won't become one of *those* people.
AA - What people?
*Chris Evans walks by gripping his IPad on both sides as he takes pictures of himself to tweet out later.*
Stank - What a douchebag.
AA - I see.
*Attitude Adjuster suddenly pops off the top of his coffee and SPLASHES it onto SKI MASK GUY who had been quietly tailing the OOWF World Champion... until now.*
SMG - Son of a BITCH!!!
AA - Gotcha, you bastard!
Stank - Alan what the fuck man?
AA - What?
Stank - I THOUGHT you said you intended to DRINK the coffee?
AA - I did until one half of the team we are facing, this Wednesday LIVE at Midweek Mayhem from Chosi, Japan! *Cheap Pop* walked over to attack us!
Stank -
AA - You're Welcome.
SMG - Is this... is this STARBUCKS??
AA - Hey! Sponsorship PENDING pal!
Stank - Alan... Ski Mask Guy is not one half of The Masked Assasins.
AA - Lucas, Lucas, Lucas... he's wearing a MASK... ergo?
Stank - Alan, you can not possibly be this stu-
*Attitude Adjuster suddenly grabs Stank's half empty cup of coffee and throws it in the direction of an approaching Rabbit Mask, who easily backflips out of range, as coffee splashes on the floor in front of him.*
Stank - Alan for FUCK'S SAKE!
AA - We HAVE to STAND up to them, STANK!
SMG - What is this shit?? I thought we were sponsored by DUNKIN' DOUGHNUTS?
Stank - It is TOO EARLY in the morning for me to have to DEAL with this CIRCUS! I'm out.
*Stank rises to his feet and walks away. He hears footsteps behind him as they enter a hallway.*
Stank - SOMETHING I can HELP you with, Victor?
*Stank whirls around and faces DVD, who stands there silent. Seconds tick by as the silence grows between them.*
Stank - Spit it out!
DVD - We ne... I mean I... you... errggg... nerver mind! Forget you ever saw me!
*DVD continues past Stank without another word, as the camera fades.*
