Card subject to pole dancing classes taught by the women of the OOWF

[wyattcox]

(Edra and Clio are backstage looking over the card when they see that they're teaming with Chris Evans again. They sigh and wander off and find SFJ Sandi standing in front of an interview banner. Sandi jumps when she sees the twins. Edra and Clio look at one another and smile, then creep up on Sandi.)

Edra: Hi Sandi!

Clio: Don't you want to talk to us about our match next week?

(Sandi nervously looks through her papers and finds the card)

SFJ Sandi: You two are teaming with Chris Evans to take on Texpress and Mai Muyo.

Edra: Poor little lost Mai. She hasn't had enough punishment, now she's coming after the rest of Saints of Sinners. And she got the big bad boys to back her up. Well, we've got a boy of our own. Former World Heavyweight Champion Chris Evans. Between the three of us we'll be more than a match for you.

Clio: Poor Mai. You should have just joined us in the beginning. We gave you a chance. But you caused a scene. You're not with us. So you're against us. A pity, really.

Edra: You seem...nervous, Sandi.

Clio: Is something wrong?

SFJ Sandi: The way you treated Russ tonight...

Clio: HE DESERVED IT!

SFJ Sandi: But it was embarrassing...

Edra: And what he said about us, about Moose, that wasn't?

Clio: Jack is our mentor, our friend. He's taught us so much. Congratulations Jack! We're so proud of you.

Edra: Russ, Texpress, Mai. Just keep it up. We will end you. Once and for all.

Clio: C'mon Sis, let's go find Cubby McTootsalot and see what's on his pea brain.

Edra: See you later, Sandi.

Clio: In your dreams...

(The twins kiss Sandi on the cheek and laugh evilly as they walk away and they...)

<Fire is sitting at the table in Kofi Kingston’s Koffee Kingdom <new to the OOWF! Located between Ric Flair’s Sub Shoppe – Eat Fresh Fat Boy, Whoo! And Roma’s Wraps> When a shadow falls across her table. Without looking up, she signs>

FW: What do you want?

<without waiting for an invitation, Moose sits down dropping the DDT title, and the Onslaught title on the table next to Fire’s world heavyweight title. Fire looks at the title and smirks>

MHJ: Almost like the old days, isn’t it. You have the world title, I have the Onslaught, Stank and LD are the tag champions

FW: Yeah well, I don’t think Poe is walking through that door anytime soon

MHJ: Probably not

FW: Why are you here?

MHJ: I heard Kofi Kingston’s Koffee Kingdom had a nice Sumatran blend

FW: No, I mean why are you here, in the OOWF. I beat you

MHJ: And we’ve been through this, they hired me back. Have you seen this economy? Turning down a job would be stupid

FW: <looking annoyed> welcher

MHJ: really? Resorting to playground insults

FW: Well, it’s true

MHJ: Fine. You’re a poopyhead

<Fire just stares at Moose>

MHJ: Sucks don’t it?

FW: Fine. Oathbreaker.

The two glare at each other, as that has clearly gone beyond playground insults.

MHJ: ...

FW: Seriously, what do you want?

MHJ: I saw your promo on top of the Eiffel. I am just waiting for you to say I was right

FW: <sipping her coffee> Yeah well, keep waiting

MHJ: You really are that stubborn, aren’t you?

FW: What do you want me to say? I said it all in my promo, I am done being what everyone else wants me to be. I am going to be what I want me to be.

MHJ: <pulling out his phone and hitting play> I believe THIS is exactly what you said

FW: Well, enough of that. I used to be feared. NO ONE dared cross me, or lay a FINGER on any one I said was off limits. It is time to for them to all remember exactly why. From now on, I'm not doing what anyone else wants, I'm going back to doing what I want to do. If I want to be nice to someone, I'll be nice to them. If I want to ignore them and hope they go away I will. I'll go to therapy when I want and not go when I don't want. I don't care what Moose says, what Davin says, what Eco says. If I want to rip Evans eyes from his sockets and play pool with them I will, and I don't care what you say or think about it.

FW: yeah, so?

MHJ: So, I want you to think back, think back to our feud, and what was the ONE thing I said over and over again?

FW: You said a lot of things Moose

MHJ: But the ONE thing I said again and again was that I wanted the old Firewoman, the one that no one would cross, the one that was FEARED

FW: No, you want a female version of you. You want someone who can’t turn it off, who WON’T turn it off. That is not me. Not any more

MHJ: And it never was.

<Fire just looks at Moose>

MHJ: You always had compassion. You got involved with the Covenant House. You donated to the orphanages. You think I don’t know, but I do. Despite what Alex wants to believe, I know you better than anyone else on this planet. Blood does that, whether you like that blood or not. You can’t be me, I can’t be you. But you were lost.

FW: <rolling her eyes> This again? Because I tried to have a normal life, I was lost. Ok Jackie, maybe you should just go

MHJ: It has nothing to do with a normal life……..look……..I will never like Alex, and I will never understand what you could POSSIBLY see in him…….but for whatever reason, being with him balanced out part of your life. The problem was, it was taking over your life. Look…….you like to talk about how I let Patrick take over my life…..

<Fire winces a bit at the mention of her brother>

MHJ:……you did the same thing, but in the other direction. You got complacent and let that balance take over. You lost who you were in the ring. You lost that drive to be the best. I had to get that back

FW: And you thought the best way to go about it was to try and kill me?

MHJ: <smirking> you know, if you remember correctly, YOU were the one who escalated things. Are you really going to sit there and tell me that, despite all the pain and suffering, there wasn’t part of you that felt more free during that series than at any time since………well, since we were kids probably? You didn’t care what Alex said. You put your marriage on the line. You wouldn’t let Stank or LD talk you out of what YOU knew had to be done. You fired Lucky because HE tried to stop you. You were determined, you were unstoppable. Admit it Lisa……..you were the old Firewoman

FW: <staring at Moose for a long time, thinking about what he said, then slowly shaking her head> that may be Moose, but it can’t be like that. That is not me. I have things……

MHJ: Will you just shut up and listen for a minute? Did you lose Alex?

FW: What?

MHJ: Are you still with Alex?

FW: Yes

MHJ: And why is that?

FW: What?

MHJ: Why are you still with him…..

FW: If this leads to another one of your Alex rants……

MHJ: No stupid, its because you found that BALANCE. Jesus do I have to spell it out for you?

<Fire just stares>

MHJ: You did what you had to do, but you didn’t throw everything away to do it. Balance.

<Moose sits back and crosses his arms with a smug look on his face>

MHJ: And now, you are the world champion

<the siblings sit and stare for a minute, finally Fire kind of nods her head, it seems like something has passed between them>

FW: Ok, fair enough. So....now what?

MHJ: <grinning> Now...you say "You were right, Moose!"

FW: <grabbing her coffee and getting ready to storm off> In your dreams.

MHJ: You are stubborn...

FW: Yeah? I'll tell you you were right the day you shake hands with Alex in the ring, and acknowledge us BOTH as Grand Slam Champions. The right way.

<Moose's smirk fades as Fire gets her own smirk, identical to his. She walks away with her coffee.>

[wyattcox]

Stank and LD Williams walk into catering and head for Kofi Kingston's Koffee Kingdom where they find Moose sitting, sipping on his Sumatran blend and enjoying a cigar. Stank and LD sit on either side of Moose and plop their title belts next to Moose's.

Stank - So... is it true?

MHJ - Yep. This Sumatran blend is pretty damn good.

LDW - You know because we're sitting here with you and because Lisa left here without the two of you getting into a major bloodbath, we can probably expect the next couple of promos from the Darlings to consist of us living in the past and trying to restart The Five.

Stank - Let them talk. It's not any less nonsensical than shit my brother has been up to lately. Fucking Darlings. I can't wait to beat the shit out of them... well Alex mostly.

LDW - At least you haven't been the focus of his particular bitching lately. He's been trying to pick a fight with me for months now. Like he's got something to prove.

Stank - Yeah he seems to have deluded himself into thinking that he's beaten me enough to have had the final word on the matter. Like I've disappeared or something.

LDW - And then there's you Moose.

MHJ - What about me?

LDW - I'm kind of surprised you taking on Power and Glory as protegees.

Stank - Don't get us wrong. I think it's cool, but uh... you know eventually they will have to face us.

MHJ - Looking past the Darlings already?

Stank -

LDW -

MHJ -

All three laugh.

Stank - Ha! Ha! Ha! Seriously though. I'd hate to have to hurt your girls.

MHJ - Maybe they'd hurt you.

Stank - They certainly could try...

LDW - ... and fail.

MHJ - We'll see.

Stank - Look forward to it.

MHJ - Gentlemen speaking of The Five... there are three of us and two of you.

Moose laughs

Stank - Stop it.

LDW - He's joking Lucas.

Stank - I know he is. There are only Five... but that is over. Fire is married to Alex. You got your thing going with the Saints of Sinners. LD and I are on our way to becoming the most dominate tag-team in OOWF history... and it's not like Poe is going to come walking in here anytime soon.

Poe walks in pretty soon after Stank finishes that sentence. He makes a beeline toward Kofi Kingston's Koffee Kingdom and leans over the table where LD, Moose and Stank are sitting. He glares at Moose.

Stank - Uh.. Hey Omar. How's it going?

Poe - Brothers... I would have a word with Jack... privately if you please.

Stank and LD glance at one another, collect their Tag Team Championship Belts, and head over to Paul Roma's Pretty Wonderful Wraps. They hear Poe mention his daughter and hear Moose say "Decisions have consequences, Omar" before getting out of earshot as the camera fades.

[wyattcox]

<Poe is glaring at Moose, it appears he is debating whether to kill him or not. Moose sits back in his chair and crosses his arms defiantly>

MHJ: You want to hit me? Hit me. She is a big girl, and how pissed off would she be if she knew you came running every time she got a little scrape? She made her intentions PERFECTLY clear when she threw the Ket mask into the volcano and took up with Kai. She wanted nothing to do with me, so she became the enemy. I saw an opportunity and I took it. Are you going to honestly stand there and tell me that if the roles were reversed, you wouldn't have done the same thing, damn the consequences?

<Poe continues to stare at Moose for a minute, then takes a deep breath and composes himself. Moose motions for him to have a seat and Poe sits down>

Poe: Aisha is a wrestler now. And because that is the path she has chosen, things like this will happen. I have to accept that........BUT........I will be watching, and if you escalate things...........decisions have consequences

<there is a long silence between Moose and Poe, finally Moose takes a long drag off his cigar and blows smoke into the air>

MHJ: Fair enough. Buy you a coffee?

<Poe nods and Moose orders him a cup, then waves LD and Stank back to the table, the four of them sit and just talk about the state of things, finally Moose looks at LD and Stank>

MHJ: Look.......about Clio and Edra and the Saints of Sinners.......I am aware that you will cross paths with them, it has nothing to do with me. I have your backs, I have theirs, but in a match between the two of you, I am a non-entity. I know since we are heels.......

<they stop and look around waiting for kayfabe, she comes screaming down the hall and slams into Justin Sane who is staring at his kindle.......which is really just an etch-a-sketch. Kayfabe takes out her frustrations on Justin and they brawl down the hall>

MHJ:......anyway, since we are heels we aren't supposed to have respect for anyone......

LDW: Uh oh, respect! You can't say that! You know how people react when you say you respect someone!

MHJ: Not me. The girls. They respect the shit out of you and Stank. They know you two are the REAL measuring sticks in the OOWF. They get that. All I am doing is helping them get where they need to be.

Poe: Moose the mentor. There was a time when you would have destroyed them just for fun. Getting soft in your old age?

MHJ: <laughing> I know you have a sore spot for the whole student/teacher thing, but that is because some people don't get it

S: That's because some people are fucking assholes who need to be pounded into a bloody pulp

<LD just looks at Stank>

S: What? I can't stand that little shit

<they go back to their conversations and we fade>

[wyattcox]

(The scene is a conference room in what appears to be the American Sunrise complex. Mary Lou is sitting at one end of the table with her feet up as best she can going through papers. Wyatt enters through the door behind her and is already visibly irritated.)

Wyatt: Well, here's another reason why the girls are totally out of their minds.

Mary Lou: What?

Wyatt: Seems like they found out who wrote all the software for the focus room and went to her direct to wipe out all their blocks.

Mary Lou: But how?

Wyatt: Beats me. A bill showed up here from Nikki. I called her and she apologized. She said the girls paid her in cash.

(Wyatt hands Mary Lou the invoice)

Mary Lou: In Cash? But where would they...

Wyatt: Lisa Darling, remember? She gave the girls all the money I sent her. Just because I felt sorry for her. No good deed goes unpunished.

Mary Lou: So turning the twins loose was all...

Wyatt: ….all Fire's fault. It'll end up being ironic. Hey, who let him in?

(Wyatt points to INCy)

Mary Lou: I did. We may be having company.

Wyatt: Company?

Mary Lou: I....I called them and reinvited them.

Wyatt: No. No. No. I do NOT want them here, especially not now.

Mary Lou: I don't get it. They're your daughters. You should have them back here.

Wyatt: You don't get it. All the defenses, all the blocks, they're all gone.

Mary Lou: All the defenses, so?

Wyatt: Including the most important. The family block. Protect the family, do no harm.

Mary Lou: But they wouldn't...

Wyatt: Oh, they could, and they would if they could get away with it. Nothing blatant, but they're good. I'm just worried what they might do to you...and these two.

(Wyatt touches Mary Lou's abdomen and her face goes pale as the realization hits her.)

Mary Lou: I...I didn't think.

Wyatt: Just don't worry. We'll think of something. INCy, you, out. I've got some calls to make. Someone might need some help.

(INCy takes off and we...)

[wyattcox]

Firewoman is hiding in the loading dock, sneaking a cigarette. Poe walks up behind her.

FW: *without turning around* You're not as stealthy as you used to be.

P: Your husband will not be pleased about the smoking.

FW: That's why I USUALLY hide it from him.

*Fire glares at the INC*

FW: So, why are you slumming?

P: I trust you got my e-mail.

FW: Yes.

P: So, why did you not answer?

FW: I don't like e-mail. Besides...no one else has said anything.

P: I haven't approached anyone else.

FW: Aw, me first? I'm flattered--

P: Don't be. I approached you first because you're the stubbornest and will take the most convincing.

FW: Why do you even need to convince me.

P: You know why. The rest won't agree without you. Especially--

FW: Sure he would.

P: The point is...well, you know the point.

FW: Yeah....yeah, I do.

P: So....you'll think about it.

Fire takes another drag off her cigarette.

P: I can promise you...it will be different this time.

FW: What makes you think that?

P: Because we will make sure we are on the same page.

Fire thinks about this for a bit.

FW: I'll....I'll think about it. That's all I can promise right now.

P: Good enough. But don't take too long.

Poe turns and walks away, as Fire finishes her cigarette, thinking.

[wyattcox]

*On the other side of the building*

There's a loud smash from inside one of the locker rooms as we see Alexis Darling outside the door and she pauses for a moment before knocking. A few seconds later Kai answers.

The Kai: The Kai is pleased to see Alexis but now is not the best of times.

Lexie: The Alexis isn't here to see you so move.

Kai is shocked enough to move without saying anything and Alexis walks right up to a rampaging A'isha.

A'isha: What do you want hag?

Lexie: *takes a deep breath* You and I...for whatever reason, we may never really like one another but we have a few things in common.

A'isha: Like what exactly?

Lexie: We both received knowledge from the same man and one of his most important lessons; the enemy of my enemy can be a great ally. You and I, we don't have to be friends or like one another ever...but we can hate the same man and that...that can be the start of something.

A'isha: What are you saying exactly?

Lexie: The al-Tikriti family has similar qualities to the Darling family and I know you want vengeance, justice, and a pound of flesh and all I'm saying is I have your back.

A'isha: You think I need you to watch my back?

Lexie: No, I actually don't. I know exactly what you're capable of. I WANT to have your back. There is no one I've ever hated more and whether or not you believe it, Kai over there is someone I consider friend, family and that means by extension...

A'isha: Don't even say it.

Lexie: Fine. But the sentiment is there. And whether or not you can go it alone isn't the issue, the fact is he won't. He doesn't play by any rules and he will use anyone and everyone around him so I'm just saying...you don't even have to ask, just know.

The Kai: The Kai appreciates it, but A'isha and The Kai have to prepare to reclaim what is rightfully mine and layeth the surf down.

Lexie: You do that. And my brother and I will take another limb away.

Lexie leaves as A'isha stares and is seemingly deep in thought as we...

~~~ Fade to the OOWF Interview Banner. A Randomly Numbered Sexy Female Journalist stands waiting. ~~~

RNSFJ: Where IS he?

~~~ As if on cue, Chad Madison walks on set and takes his place beside her. He tips his hat and smiles ~~~

Chad: Sorry about that gorgeous.

RNSFJ: (Blushing) It's OK. You ready?

Chad: Of course. BUT! I need to warn you. There's a good chance that after this interview, Clio and/or Edra will try and kiss you.

RNSFJ: Ewwww What?

Chad: Let me explain. I've been looking back, trying to pinpoint what the heck makes the Cox twins call me a sexist pig. And I came to a conclusion.

RNSFJ: What's that?

Chad: I'll tell ya. Now, what would a guy have to do to for YOU to call him a pig?

RNSFJ: Ummm.. I guess mistreat or use women.

Chad: Good answer. Now, I like to meet as many pretty women as I can, and I sleep with quite a few of them. But I don't do it. to prove a point or make someone ELSE look or feel bad. I certainly have never just grabbed a woman and kissed her without permission.

RNSFJ: I wouldn't think too many would object.

Chad: But I haven't Even those that object would tell you that. Look, there's one coming this way.

~~~ The camera pans and we see Alexis Darling, dressed to the nines walking past the interview location. THe RNSFJ flags her down and she approaches cautiously ~~~

Alexis: What do YOU want? (Glaring at Chad)

Chad: Lexie, Let me ask you something. Have I ever asked you out?

Alexis: A couple of times.

Chad: and how did I handle the rejection?

Alexis: You seemed... disappointed.

Chad: And at any time, have I ever grabbed you and kissed you without your consent?

Alexis: Hell no, I'd knock you fucking teeth in.

Chad: And have you ever heard of me doing that to anyone else?

Alexis: As much as I'd like to burst your little bubble here and say yes, no, I've never heard of you doing that. Word would have gotten around.

Chad: Thanks toots.

Alexis: Call me that agian and you're a dead man.

~~~ Alexis turns on the spot and storms away. ~~~

RNSFJ: She doesn't like you.

Chad: That's true. But back to my point. I treat women well. Now Edra & Clio, they have this habit of grabbing interviewers and kissing them without notice. And they didn't start doing it just for fun, they did it to pick at me, trying to get under my skin. Whether or not the SFJ's liked it or not, they USED those girls. SO if anyone around here should be called a pig.... it's the Cox girls.

RNSFJ: I see.

Chad: And now, I ask, what would make you call someone sexist?

RNSFJ: Umm.. if they consider women below them?

Chad: Good answer. Now me, I treat all the women I date very well. Fancy dinners, shower them with compliments, lavish them with gifts.

Voice from behind: And sleep with them

~~~ Chad and the RSNFJ turn to see Firewoman standing there smiling ~~~

Chad: Not all of the time.

Fire: True.

Chad: Answer me this ma'am, before you and Alex got married, I was known to have a crush on you, right?

Fire: Something like that.

Chad: But we never slept together.

Fire: Nope. Scrabble. Lots of Scrabble.

Chad: (Grinning) So I treated you pretty well.

Fire: Probably better than any other male besides my husband ever has.

Chad: Thank you ma'am. Run in the morning?

Fire: Sure thing Cowboy.

~~~ Fire walks away ~~~

Chad: So, when you treat members of the opposite sex like they are beneath you, you are sexist. Clio, Edra.... You again. You took the actions of one frat boy and decided all men are created equal? You paint us all with the same brush, but I'M sexist? You even turned on your own FATHER for Pete's sake. If anyone around here is sexist..... It's The Cox Twins.

RNSFJ: Ooooh I see.

Chad: So, I've pretty much debunked the whole "Chad is a sexist pig" thing.

So that's you problem with me. Here's my problem with you.

Besides the personal attacks, you two have stuck your noses in Texpress business on a NUMBER of occasions. You learned last week that we aren't going to sit back and take it anymore. Because (ripping off his Texpress T-Shirt (Now available at OOWFshop.com!)) You might injure one or three of us here and there, but RUN DLP will NEVER DIE!

~~ He tosses the shirt shreds on the floor and reveals a retro RUN DLP T-Shirt (also available at OOWF shop.com!) ~~~

Chad: You've interfered and cost us our Championships, Championship matches and caused me to take a couple extra knocks on the noggin here lately. We don't make threats, but let me promise you this girls, there are consequences to your actions, and sooner than you think you will answer to for them. And not to daddy, not to Moose, but to the BEST TAG TEAM IN THE WRESTLING UNIVERSE STILL TODAY! The Measuring Sticks, The Division Killers, The Texpress!

~~~ Chad places his hat on the RNSFJ's head and lets out a big WHOOOOOOO! before we fade...~~~

[wyattcox]

(Another long day of workouts and a long night of fun with their SFJ friends, and Edra and Clio are reentering their suite. The Christmas tree is down and put away, and they decide to plop down and catch up on OOWF-TV. They watch with puzzlement as Fire and Poe talk and as A'isha, The Kai, and Lexie chat.)

Edra: What was all that about?

Clio: Beats me...unless...hmmm....

Edra: What?

Clio: Methinks some people are nervous, maybe even afraid.

Edra: Of?

(Clio says nothing, just smiles)

Edra: Get. Out. You think?

Clio: We'll see.

(The twins watch Chad's promo and laugh. Edra starts to get her dander up and turn to INCy, but Clio stops her.)

Clio: No.

Edra: But the boy...

Clio: ......the boy can't even get our names right. He thinks because our dear dad is a Cox that we're Coxes. We're Neals. And that should worry him. Anyway, the boy thinks that denial is a river in Egypt. He'll never understand. And bringing in Darlings to try to make his case? Please. Scrabble, my Aunt Petunia.

Edra: Yeah, like anyone's gonna believe little Miss Seduce-the Sisters of Mercy.

Clio: And please, we treat all the SFJ's well.

Edra: Well, you did use Sunny.

Clio: But I treated her better than anyone Chad's dated. And anyway, I was thinking of settling down with her. Until, well...

Edra: Until Dad caught you.

Clio: Yeah, that caused all sorts of trust issues. Still, she's sweet. And we treat all the SFJ's well. Come on, it's not like we haven't told them what we're gonna do.

Edra: And that's why we don't have anyone interview us other than Sandi or Sunny.

Clio: And like you said, if a woman was to date her way through the locker room like Chad does the interviewers, they'd be calling her a slut, whore, worse.

Edra: The boys always mess stuff up. Real men. Moose, Stank, LD. They're the ones that are important. Chad and Zane, Alex, Bill, Justin, meh.

Clio: It's time to bring the pain.

Edra: Yeah, “I know that pain is the most important thing in the universes. Greater than survival, greater than love, greater even than the beauty it brings about. For without pain, there can be no pleasure. Without sadness, there can be no happiness. Without misery there can be no beauty. And without these, life is endless, hopeless, doomed and damned. Adult. You have become adult.”

Clio: Harlan Ellison. Now there's a man. Texpress, Mai, get ready to enjoy some pain. The pleasure will come when we...end you.

Edra: But first, let's get some shuteye. Hate having to destroy someone on half a night's sleep.

Clio: True, true.

(The twins hug one another and head for their rooms as we...)

Poe is READING~ on the couch in GM Selena's office while she is supposedly finishing up some work. But she's not working. She's staring a hole through Poe. Finally, Poe speaks, but never takes his eyes off the book.

Poe: Don't glare, Beloved. It makes your eyes look small.

GMSa-T: You're up to something.

Poe closes the book with one hand resulting in a loud, book-closing *thump*.

Poe: Why would you say that?

Selena gives Poe a "don't even try to play coy with me" look. They have this non-verbal communication thing down pat.

Poe: Perhaps it is best that you, my beloved wife and esteemed General Manager, are not aware of my plans.

Selena ponders this and then rolls her eyes and groans.

GMSa-T: Fine. But this better not screw me over.

Poe: Would I ever "screw you over"?

GMSa-T: Screw me over what? *grins*

Poe: *chuckles* You may be around too many men in this job.

GMSa-T: I'm hardly one of the boys.

Poe: You have your friends.

GMSa-T: Speaking of... I'm really surprised you've been so calm about my former favorite uncle.

Poe: How so?

GMSa-T: Om, he head-butted A'isha...

Poe: He did. But she is a wrestler now...

GMSa-T: Dude! You know she's a pain in my ass, but I know how you are. You'd literally do anything to protect her.

Poe: Your point?

GMSa-T: So why haven't you killed Moose? Or at least pour your coffee on him to start a feud?

Poe: Moose has earned a certain amount of leeway over the years.

GMSa-T: Um...

Poe: Let me rephrase. A certain amount of leash. A leash that through his actions of late, not just headbutting my daughter, has grown substantially shorter. He still has some leash for now, but when and if he runs out of it, he will be dealt with like all the others before him that have dared cross me.

GMSa-T: But you're retired...

Poe: I didn't necessarily say in the ring...

Selena puts her fingers in her ears.

GMSa-T: LALALALALALALALA.

Poe grins as he gets off the couch and then leans over her desk to get within inches of her face.

Poe: You're so adorable.

Selena smiles, takes Poe's face in her hands to kiss him as we...

*The members of Drink and Destroy are finishing up a workout at the gym when DK Murphy heads back to the bench press and starts loading weights on the barbell*

DKM: Hey, guys, can I get one more spot?

The Kai: The Kai would like to help, but The Kai doesn't think The Kai should keep A'isha waiting any longer after what went on this week.

DKM: I may not be an expert on how to keep women happy, but I'm sure keeping them waiting is not the best idea. Maybe we see you guys later at the Destroyitarium.

TK: The Kai hopes so.

*The Kai leaves*

DKM: Danny?

*DDT nods and gets ready to spot, then does a double take at the amount of weight on the barbell*

DKM: So it's more than usual.

DDT:...

DKM: Folz tried to wear me out with repeated attempts at pins. I hate the bastard but he is a smart veteran. I want to be prepared to defend the belt.

DDT:...

DKM: I know Folz doesn't weigh this much. i want to be prepared to face anyone in the OOWF.

DDT:....

DKM: Even him. You ready?

*DDT nods. DK Murphy does 9 reps, then struggles with the 10th, but gets the weights back on the rack. DDT was ready to help, but did not have to. DKM springs to his feet and offers a fist bump. DDT starts to respond, but then, like Ric Flair, pulls his hand back and runs it through his hair*

DKM: Was that your version of "bro do you even lift" Danny? Dude, it was my 4th set!

*DDT and DKM exchange fist bumps*

DKM: You, me, and The Kai are going to be kicking asses and taking names. The Kai faces Moosehead Jack, a OOWF original. No one respects that more than I do, and I have watched just about every match Moose has wrestled, but I doubt he can beat The Kai in another Onslaught Match. Danny, you have challenging opponents, but you are tagging with a great partner!

*DDT nods*

DKM: As for me, well, Matt Folz, when I got here I wanted to take your title away from you, but I understand that you stopped caring about that title. That's your business. If I keep the title, that's great, but my priority is kicking your ass, and when I get done with that I have some other business to attend to in the OOWF.

[wyattcox]

We see Matt Folz sitting alone in his locker room, looking directly into the camera.

MF: It's funny, I look around here and I see almost everyone in this company teaming up with someone. Saints of Sinners, Drink and Destroy, Run DLP, The Darlings and Fire, Stank and LD, Banned From Everywhere, The Muyos and Stan.... What are we calling them anyway? Team False Prophets?

As for me? Look around, you'll see that... other than Jaime, who doesn't even come to ringside with me... I have no partner, no friends, no one to watch my back. You know why? Because I don't NEED anyone.I've done the whole team thing, many times before, but now I'm more than secure enough in my abilities that I don't need any help. This is my time, Make no mistake, I am the future of this company, I train alone, and I will win the title alone.

This week I face a member of the aforementioned Drink and Destroy, our Intercontinental Champion DK Murphy. Fortunately for him, I don't give a shit about the Intercontinental Championship. See, there's only one championship in this industry that means anything: The OOWF World Heavyweight Championship. My contract expires exactly one day after the 2013 Hall of Fame ceremony, and rest assured that I will have won that Championship by then. I don't care if it's Firewoman, Alex Darling, Moosehead Jack or anyone else, I am going to win that belt, and I am going to do it without any help. Everyone in this company, I don't care how many friends you have, consider yourself on notice.

<in a darkened room, a match lights, lighting a cigar. For a moment we see it is Moosehead Jack. The match goes out and we see only the glow of a cigar until Moose reaches up and turns on a single bare bulb. We see Moose is sitting behind a wooden table, in an empty room. Moose inhales deeply on the cigar and blows the smoke out. After a few seconds, he speaks>

Aisha, you grew up around wrestling. When you were a child, your father was the biggest name in all of Japan. You learned the culture, you lived the culture. While I was there, fighting alongside your father, I watched you grow from a little girl into an awkward teenager, and finally into a confident woman. Knowing what you know about Japan and the culture of wrestling there, you know goddamn well the importance of masks.

<Moose takes a long drag on his cigar again and blows the smoke out>

You decided to come back to the OOWF. This was shortly after I had been gone for a bit. This was shortly after we had spent some time together in Japan. This was shortly after Stank tried to end my life. You were there, you were someone I considered a friend. And then you came to the OOWF, and you decided you wanted to help guide Kai. I had no problem with that, hell I had no real problem with Kai, I knew he and his brother, also from our days in Japan.

<another long drag on the cigar and a cloud of smoke>

Then a funny thing happened. You decided you had to make a point to take my mask, the mask of Ketsueki Seishin and throw it into a volcano. In one moment you not only disrespected me, you disrespected the legacy of Ket in Japan. And why? I had no problem with you, I had n o problem with Kai. But now? Now I have a problem.

You see Aisha, your father and I are close. I consider Poe a brother. But the fact is, you disrespected me, and I am not one to sit back and forget things like that. Now, this past week, you got a little reminder that I have a long memory. As far as I am concerned, it is done. But if you would like to push the issue…….by all means, feel free.

And Poe…….again, I consider you a brother. I respect you and all you have done. But the fact remains, decisions have consequences. You want to lecture ME about the things I have done? Fine. Not the first time, won’t be the last time. But you know I am not about to apologize for anything I do. If Aisha crosses the line again, she will be dealt with. She wants to be part of the OOWF, she wants to be involved in the action, then she takes her medicine along with everyone else. And if that leads to a problem between you and I? I am not a hard man to find, and you know goddamn well what I can bring. If that is what you want, so be it.

<Moose sits back and takes another drag from his cigar>

That leaves one man. The Kai.

<Moose sets the Onslaught championship on the table>

Kai, I believe I have something that you think belongs to you. Now, what are you more angry about? That I took this from you? Or that I gave Aisha a little reminder that she is no longer off limits? I know you are mad, I can see that in your eyes. I know you would like nothing more than to get into that ring on Wednesday and tear me to pieces. I know you would like nothing more than to ditch the Rock persona and go back to being Kai, one of the most feared of all of Poe’s apostles. The Hawaiian Wolf.

<Moose drags on his cigar again>

Only, you can’t do that, can you? you can’t do that because Danny and DK may not like it. Drink and Destroy are the white hats, the heroes, the men that are going to save the OOWF. You can’t do that because if you do, you get disqualified. I may leave the ring bloody, but I leave the onslaught champion. So Kai, I want you to think real hard about our match. I want you to think about all the things that have been said about Moosehead Jack. I want you to think how people have called me a garbage wrestler. How people have said I am nothing more than a butcher, out for nothing more than bloodshed and mayhem. And I want you to think what you are going to do. You have fifteen minutes Kai. You can either try to out wrestle me and win this title back……or you can think of little Aisha, out cold on the floor, helpless, and you can try to exact a measure of revenge.

<Moose sits back once again and puffs on his cigar>

If you think you are better than me, and want to wrestle this away from me? <Moose smirks> Be my guest.

If you want a war? If you want to bring Danny and DK into this………

<Clio and Edra step into the picture on either side of Moose>

Be my guest. Just know this, it is a war you cannot win…….

Clio: Trust us

<The Saints of Sinners laugh and we fade to black>

Ecosystem is on the rooftop of MCI--Cedar Junction, a maximum security prison in Walpole, Massachusetts.



Eco: I'm going to let you all hear from a man who you don't hear from very often. This is not Ecosystem, the self-professed savior. This is not Junichiro "Ecosystem" Muyo, the arrogant businessman. The man speaking to you right now is Ecosystem, the professional wrestler.

As of last Wednesday, I am still winless since my return to the OOWF, thanks to Matt Folz cheating me out of a victory. Matt, I hear you loud and clear. You want one thing. You want to walk out of this company with the OOWF Heavyweight Championship. Maybe you'll get there, Matt, maybe you won't. But based on your actions this past week, if you do get there, it'll be because you stole that belt. Now, I know a little something about stolen belts. After all, it was me who stole that Intercontinental Championship away from you, making me the first--and only--stolen Grand Slam Champion. And let me tell you, that championship reign was one of the emptiest reigns that I have ever...

Ecosystem laughs.

Eco: Who am I kidding. It felt great. It felt great to steal that championship from you, Matt, it felt great to anoint myself Grand Slam champion, and I bet that if you go ahead and pull a taser when the referee isn't looking and somehow win that World Championship, you're going to walk out of the building with the biggest fucking smile on your face.

Matt, I may hate your guts, but we have one thing in common. You and I, whether the fans boo us or cheer us, you and I know, deep down in our hearts, that we are not good men.

This week, I will be standing across the ring from the Last Good Man in the OOWF..."Dynamite" Danny Taylor. He is incorruptible. He has never faltered. The man has been tested like Job, and he has never lost his faith in what is right. And he will be standing next to my former disciple, a soul lost and found a hundred times over, your World Heavyweight Champion Firewoman. I understand Firewoman and her bipolar nature, I truly do, because I have always believed in my heart that what Elie Wiesel said is true, that "The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite of beauty is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference." She may be "balanced" now, but she is never indifferent.

But I will have something better than a good man in my own corner--a Reformed Man. The Reverend Stan Fulton burns with the zeal of a convert, and his flame allows me to see clearly. See, I am not a reformed man, and perhaps I never will be. What I am is a wolf who fell in with a patient trainer. I slowly learn to calm myself, to obey, to practice self-mastery over my base instincts. But at the end of the day...if provoked, I will still bite a motherfucker's throat out.

Enjoy The Pain.

(Wyatt is in his office inside the American Sunrise complex and looks very frustrated. Mary Lou walks in as a conversation is abruptly ending.)

Wyatt: No, Mai, just listen. I can...Mai...Hello. Hello? Damn!

(Wyatt slams down the phone)

Mary Lou: No progress, I assume.

Wyatt: Not a one of them wants to hear what I've got to say. No one there understands the problem. Hell, even the Texicans don't get it. They're not Coxes. They're Neals. Only one person knows how dangerous the twins are in this mode, and I think he wants it that way. Saints of Sinners, my Aunt Petunia. More like the Disciples of the Apocalypse. No one will listen.

Mary Lou: You tried.

Wyatt: Well, now the only thing we can do is protect ourselves. Sit down, love.

(Wyatt pushes a button, and shortly thereafter Clancey and Doctor Flynn appear.)

Wyatt: Gentlemen, effective this moment, we're in total lockdown. Coordinate all needed departures and arrivals through me. We have a significant danger. Doctor, coordinate with the hospital your needed times there. I'll cover for anytime they need you. Clancey, disable all remote access codes to the mountain. And keep the Discontinuity Alarm secured in the Safe Room, and resume sending those sub-space distress calls. We might get an answer yet. And make sure that all on property security is doubled. Get me Judge Bishop and Sheriff Dan on the phone. I need to make sure we have all the trespass paperwork in place. We are not going to take any chances with the twins. They will not put this family in danger.

Clancey: Yes sir, right on it.

Wyatt: And don't forget the Moose entrance in the back. Make sure it's secured. And have Mike secure the plane for now.

Dr Flynn: So for now, just hold tight?

Wyatt: Unless the hospital needs you. Now, let's get to work.

(Clancey and Dr Flynn leave the room.)

Mary Lou: Dear, I think you're overreacting.

Wyatt: The twins are no longer rational people, sweetheart. They're full fledged Neals. No negotiations. No reason. For the immediate future, they're the problem of the OOWF. And may God have mercy on all their souls.

(Wyatt points INCy at the door, and he leaves the office as we...)

Fire walks into the Destroyitarium early on Sunday Danny is sitting there reading the paper.

FW: Hey.

DDT: ...

FW: No. Not a run with Chad. Funeral.

DDT: ...

FW: No one you know, and no, I didn't cause it. I see we're a team this week.

Danny smiles broadly and holds his fingers crossed. Fire does the same.

FW: Yep...just like that.

Danny's face turns into a frown, as Ecosystem's promo replays on the television. He looks at Fire, with concern. She shrugs it off.

FW: Ancient history. It'll be fine.

Danny looks at Fire...like seriously looks. Fire holds his gaze, then...blinks and looks away?

FW: Okay. Not so ancient. Last time I was in a ring with him he caught fire and I watched him burn.

DDT: ....

FW: No, not really. I don't feel "sorry."

DDT: ....

FW: Stan is tough, and moves pretty well for a big guy, AND he's been dropping the weight, turning it into muscle.

DDT: ....

FW: Yeah, they both kind of do have that savior thing going on, although Stan's not annoying about it.

DDT: ....

FW: Right, and I think if we can make sure we match strengths against their weaknesses....


DDT: ....

FW: Exactly. Okay, see you tomorrow?

DDT: ....

FW: Take care.

Firewoman leaves to head back to the Darling Luxury Suites, and she passes by OOWF-TV that has looped itself again and is back onto Ecosystem's promo. Firewoman listens this time. She smiles.

FW: Go ahead Eco. Be the wolf. I think history has proven...I'm your silver bullet.

Fire continues down the hall.

Kai is PACING~ back and forth in the Destroyatorium. DK Murphy is watching him as he gulps his beer. I think he senses a promo coming. Omigod, here it is:

Kai: Moosehead Jack. You wanna talk about our history in Japan. You wanna talk about respect. You wanna cry masks. You wanna talk about little girls. The Kai always knew you were kinda off.

Moosehead Jack, you have no problem putting your hands on women. The Kai don't respect that. Most men with actual testicles don't condone that. But here's the facts. Jack.

The Kai doesn't care what you think. The Kai doesn't care what you hold dear. The Kai doesn't care if you hold yourself while watching the Wiggles. What the Kai cares about is HIS Championship.

The Onslaught Championship is about onor, respect, things you know nothing about. And now you want the Kai to sink to your level. You want the Kai to fight dirty. Well, Moosehead Jack, be careful what you wish for, but NO.

The Kai will not sink to your level because the Kai doesn't need to. The Kai is better than you in every way. The Kai is a better wrestler. The Kai is better than you at life. The Kai doesn't sit around a dark room, alone, smoking god awful things, hating everyone, blaming others for his problems, and looking for the next rat to rub against his balls.

No, the Kai will do what the Kai does best. The Kai will come to that ring. The Kai will look at your sad pathetic self holding the Kai's Championship. Then the tsunami of energy shared by the millions...

Crowd: AND MILLIONS!

Kai: ...of the Hawai'ian Nation wil come over the Kai and the Kai will then proceed to smack the roody poo out of you. And then when the Kai is ready, the Kai will check your sorry jabroni behind into the Smackdown Aloha Hotel and leave you there to rot.

And as for A'isha, don't you worry about A'isha. As you said, she knows you. She knows your games. She knows what your all about, and as royally pissed off as she was... she understood. She won't play into your hands Moosehead Jack. And that leaves the Kai free and clear to take back the Kai's belt, then take that god awful smelling ciagr you love, turn that son bitch sideways, and stick it STRAIGHT UP! YOUR CANDY! ASS!

DKM: BURN HIS RECTUM!

Kai's concentration is broken and he looks back to DK.

Kai: Alrighty then.

Kai looks back to the camera. He arches the eyebrow and the crowd cheers.

Kai: IF YA SMELLLLLLLLLLLLLLALALOW! WHAT THE KAI! AIN'T! SMOKIN!

[wyattcox]

<Moose is walking down the hall when he passes a monitor and sees the Kai's promo. Moose smirks and slings the Onslaught championship over his shoulder>

Well then Kai........game on. You have fifteen minutes. Fifteen minutes to beat this sad, pathetic shell of a man. Fifteen minutes Kai.

Now think about this, when that fifteen minutes is up, and you have failed - and you will - what does that say about you? What does it say about the Lava Bull that he can't beat a washed up, pathetic shell of a man like Moosehead Jack for YOUR title?

You think about that Kai. Tick tock, tick tock........your time is up

Trust me

<Moose smirks and walks away>

**Stank and L.D. Williams are in their locker room. Williams is reading a text on his cell phone.**

LDW: “Man, Stanley is pissed.”

LDW: “We were seen in public with Poe and Jack - his phone’s been ringing off the hook.”

S: “…”

LDW: “What?”

S: “He’s a duck.”

LDW: “Nice of you to notice.”

S: “How does he talk on the phone?”

LDW: “A very small headset.”

S: “I mean, how do people understand him?”

LDW: “-”

S: “-”

LDW: “Aaaaanyway…The Darlings.”

S: “Saving the OOWF from Moosehead Jack…“

LDW: “By coming after us.”

S: “Again.”

LDW: “I believe Alexis referred to beating us as removing a limb.”

S: <sigh>

LDW: “If there’s logic there, I’m not seeing it.”

S: “Don‘t try. You‘ll just give yourself a headache.”

LDW: “We should say something about the match.”

S: “How about we’ll hit them so hard we’ll hit them very hard? It’s the Darlings - nothing we say will get through the self-righteousness and paranoia anyway.”

LDW: “True.”

S: “Let’s let little Alex and his sister do the talking. We’ll do the winning.”

LDW: “Now you’re speaking my language.”

FADE in backstage at the Iorio Arena in Walpole, Massachusetts. Walking from the film room to the gym are Ecosystem (the wrestler) and Reverend Stan Fulton.

E: “So why haven’t you responded to Moose and losing the DDT title to him?”

SF: “Because I don’t care about that title. I only wanted it off Clio and to give her a little payback. Moose can have it. Frankly it should be renamed the Moosehead Jack Hardcore Championship. If there’s anyone in the OOWF who’s elevated the hardcore style around here it’s him.”

E: “And his comments about you?”

SF: “Are just that. Comments. What Moosehead Jack has to say or do outside the ring is meaningless to me. He’s certainly entitled to his opinions as I am mine. That they are polar opposites is not surprising these days.”

E: “You would have had all of the roster involved in a backstage brawl a few years ago.”

SF: “I also would have had a dozen extra pains and bruises and possibly concussions. I’ve been starting to think all those shots to the back of my head did something to me.”

E: “Knocked some sense into you?”

SF: “Har har. Hardee har har. You are making great strides lately. I have no doubt that our losing streak is over. Wednesday night, we go out and defeat Danny Taylor and Firewoman. Our path to the Tag Team Championships starts in two days.”

E: “I can’t say I won’t relapse between now and then.”

SF: “We all fall. It’s that we get back up that matters.”

E: “Very motivational.”

SF: “I’m rusty. I haven’t promoted much since Christmas.”

E: “I know. I’m tired carrying you. And you’re a load to carry.”

SF: “I repeat. Har har. Hardee har har.”

E: “Weak effort today, Stan. Maybe your work in the gym will be better than your promo.”

SF: “Can’t be worse. And since you’ve coopted my catchphrase, why don’t you tell Danny and Fire what’s on tap?”

E: “Daniel, Lisa. Enjoy the pain.”

Evans: After this whole issue concerning Firewoman, GM Selena seems to wanna essentially give me the week off. Putting me in a match against Mai and Texpress. I go back a ways with everyone in this match. It’s almost a bit of a New Guard reunion with Mai and me. Gives me a chance to show her why she would have been best to stay on my good side.

I remember hearing people saying that Mai would be the deathblow to the New Guard. We all know what really happened, though. Every single member of that group was jealous of my greatness, so they took their ball and went to play elsewhere. And look what happened there. They all left, and I went on to become World Champion, proving to everyone that I needed nobody but myself, and only created the group so that the others could know what it feels like to be relevant. Hell, the only ones that did anything of any worth were Folz and Fulton, and that’s not saying a lot. Good luck carrying that fat load, Juni. Then there’s the human petri dish, Chad Madison. Chad, if you think that anyone buys into the fact that all you and Fire have done is play Scrabble, you’re dumber than you look. Unless by “Play Scrabble,” you mean “Fucking the shit out of her every chance you get, and creating a new strain of STDs,” in which case, I’ll buy it. And Zane, well…I’ve got no clever insults for the man since he really doesn’t give me anything to pick apart. He’s a nice guy who doesn’t like to swear. What the hell am I supposed to do with that?

So I’ll just go in there with Moose’s sweethearts, the Saints of Sinners, and do what I do best. Win.

We see Matt Folz bringing food back into his suite.

MF: Fuck me, I can't believe I have to root for that piece of shit Nick Saban tonight. Goddamn lack of Playoffs...

Folz enters the suite to see Jaime McAllister laughing hysterically.

MF: What are you laughing about?

JM: I know the game's about to start, but you have to watch this.

Jaime rewinds the previous Chris Evans promo, Folz watches it and starts laughing.

MF: Oh Chris, Chris, Chris, my old friend, I don't even know where to start with this one. First of all, the New Guard didn't break up because we were all jealous of you. No, we all left beause we were sick of your ego. You forgot we were supposed to be in this together and made it all about yourself. Now, yes, you did go on to become World Champion, but let's look at your last two title matches, shall we? You were handed BOTH on a silver platter, once by me and once by Ghosthead, and yet somehow, amazingly, managed to choke both away.

I'll ignore your comments about Texpress, because I don't give a shit about them, but I would like to focus on your last line. "I'll do what I do best, win." Really Chris? That's what you do best huh? That's funny, because in addition to the two title matches I just mentioned, you've also got your ass kicked by me on several occasions. Face it, I was a better wrestler before we were in the New Guard, I was a better wrestler than you while we were in the New Guard, and I'm still a better wrestler than you. Once I win the Championship, if you want to prove me wrong about that and embarrass yourself again, you're more than welcome to try.

Mai approaches Evans from behind in his interview spotlight.

Mai: Did you really create the New Guard so that we'd all know what it was like to feel relevant?

Evans: (spins around) Wha?

Mai: Because if so...(Mai jumps and hugs Evans)...that's so nice! A little misguided, and probably didn't justify all that violence, but totally nice! (Mai lets go.) Anyway, if it wasn't for you, I never would have met my best friend Stan Fulton, so I appreciate that as well.

Evans: Likely true. ...Did you catch any of my promo besides that comment?

Mai: Nope! Sometimes when you talk, you say things that make me think bad things about you, so I just stopped listening so that I can like you more!

Evans: Charming.

Mai: But I do know we're facing each other this week which is super-exciting! Just a piece of advice...keep it professional with the Neals this week, and nothing more. (Evans smirks.) No, not in the Chad Madison way!

Evans: I'm just saying, I don't think they're interested--

Mai: Har har har. I'm just saying...I think Wyatt may be over-reacting as regards the Neals...but he's certainly not unjustified.

Mai exits.

Wyatt climbs into the back seat, and as the door closes, he turns and sees Moosehead Jack sitting in the back seat next to him. Wyatt turns white for a moment as his eyes dart around for weapons or anything else>

MHJ: Relax Wyatt, I am not here to do any harm

WC: <relaxing slightly> How did you......

<The large man opens the front door and sees Moose sitting there and jumps into action, grabbing his radio>

LM: Sir, would you like me to call more security......

WC: <eyeing Moose suspiciously> No.......I believe we will be just fine. Stand down.........for the moment

<the large man takes a few steps from the car, but he pulls his coat back revealing a sidearm, he stares daggers into Moose, Moose just smirks at him>

MHJ: You have to remember to lock the cars Wyatt, anyone can just camp out in the back seat

WC: So, Mr. Quinn, what do I owe the pleasure

MHJ: I am just wondering what exactly your problem is with Clio and Edra

WC: <staring at him incredulously> you SAW what they did did to Kate.

MHJ: Yes, I saw exactly what they did.

WC: THAT! THAT is not how I raised them! That was decietful and arrogant and COMPLETELY uncalled for! That is NOT what we were about.....

MHJ: No, that is not what YOU were about. There is a difference

WC: Don't talk semantics with me. I have been through my share of wars, that is NOT the right way to do things!

MHJ: <laughing> Now who is arguing semantics? There is no "right" way or "wrong" way, there just is. YOU got hung up on imposing YOUR morals on them, and when they fought back, you cut bait and ran

WC: I raised them better than that

MHJ: No.......let me ask you this Wyatt.......why were you so angry? Was it because it wasn't your way of doing things? Or because it WAS the Neal's way of doing things?

<Wyatt's eyes narrow at Moose>

MHJ: People don't change Wyatt. We all are who we are. You're right, you've been to war. But let me ask you this, when you look into the mirror each morning, what do you see? Do you see the man who tried to impart what he thought was the "right" way of doing things on the girls? Or do you see the man who went to incredibly sadistic lengths to win. Because I believe I know exactly what you see.

WC: Oh do you now?

MHJ: <smirking> Yes. You see the man who butchered a friend. You see a man who, until that point had tried to do things the "right" way. After that, after the blood on your hands, you were free. You did what you had to do, and whether you will admit it or not, you enjoyed every last second of it. It tapped into that primal kill or be killed fear of all men. And when it was all said and done, you realized how much you liked it, and you had to make sure that part of you NEVER came out again. You pushed it down, and you repressed it, you repressed it so much that you even tried to impart it on your daughters, afraid that if they ever got a real taste of what it was like to be free, to do what THEY wanted, you would lose them

<Wyatt stares at Moose for a long time, anger in his eyes>

WC: And just what is it you plan on doing with the girls, Mr. Quinn?

MHJ: It's very simple Mr. Cox. I shall set them free.
