Cross Recoba is prodded awake by a large stick that appears from stage right. Recoba: Huh? ...Oh, we're still doing this? He hazily saunters to the podium once more. Recoba: Why is it that socially awkward speakers have to make their speeches last a lifetime for us too? Anyways, we're up to our final award now. Sanders, if you win this one then just let us know when it's time to hit the ballots again for a new US President, yeah? Recoba: Our last award is awarded to those who posses the physical embodiment of perfection. It might be their great hair... Cross runs a hand 'casually' through his own locks. Recoba: It could be a winning smile... He leans into the camera angle and flashes a Hollywood smile. Recoba: It could just be down to their chiselled good looks... A wink this time. Recoba: Whatever it is, you know that it's a draw for the Network. You could even prove it, perhaps if they were to be starring in an upcoming show from the Splat Network that starts in April. Cross throws his hands palm up beside him as he looks off-stage. Recoba: So, our last winner of the night, and saving the best for last. You all voted for... He opens up the envelope... {Who won?}Recoba: The fuck! COPYCAT?
Cross steps back, clearly in a state of semi-shock. He can be heard repeating himself in disbelief.

Wellington Dunne who has been enjoying the festivities, as well as the open bar chirps up.
"That's fuck*hic*ing bullsh bullshit and you all know it. I challenge Copycat to a pose off. Any time any place."
Dunne is then tackled by Monroe and Sniper.
Joe Nobody: "Ignore him everyone. He's had a few too many."

MYOJIN sits with his arms crossed, unimpressed.
“Really? Copycat over ME of all people? This whole thing was RIGGED.”

Copycat is so taken aback by the announcement that he doesn't hear the words from The Saga. He goes up to Cross and despite all nausea and disgust - that I'm sure he would be feeling - gives him a hug. He takes the award and lifts it up in the air.
Copycat: Thanks everyone, I just...
Sniffle.
Copycat: It's just been so hard these last few years. With the homelessness and the malnutrition, and the constant torture from Mr. Bradshaw over the years, I was just doing my best to find a little bit of happiness in the world. I can't.
Without any sort of shame, Copycat's face is wet and shiny with a mixture of his (potentially?)-blood, (aged and vinegar-smelling)-sweat, and (unabashed)-tears. Oh and snot too. He beams.
Copycat: This is a lesson for all of you! Life cannot give you anything more that you can handle! When life gets you down, you can get back up! Even if you wake up to find your cardboard box wet with toxic fumes from gasoline being poured on, and when you see Mr. Bradshaw getting a lighter out! Even if the owner of the XHF Network, who you have worked with for over 15 years forgets your name! Even ff you're so ugly that Animal Control gets sent out and chases me, thinking that I'm a hairless monkey! Even if you have to eat your food from the garbage, amidst an infectious pandemic!
Copycat shoves his face into the fancy and well-kept jacket of the Year End Award. After an awkwardly long hug, which to be fair is probably any length of time with Copycat, he eventually pulls his head away.
Copycat: You can get over the hard time in your life and sometimes, life will cut you a break! This just means so much to me. THANK YOU, XHF NETWORK!
Copycat lifts the award up in the air as he's ready to finally have a moment of happiness in his life.

Cross can be seen pretty much hugging himself and rocking as he stands and observes in disbelief, the stick is once more extended and used to prod him. An intern runs on and passes an envelope to Cross and whisper in his ear before running off stage. The foreground is taken up by Copycat lifting the trophy high above his head, he's on the cusp of the biggest accolade of his life. Cross strides through from the back of the stage with an urgency last seen when Caff heard an XHF Network fed had shut down. Recoba: WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!! He breaks into a run and snatches the title off Copycat, causing the jabroni (no relation) to burst into uncontrollable tears. Recoba reacts with the only sane reaction - he pushes him off the stage. The crowd fall hushed once more. Recoba: I, uh... Cross is uncharacteristically coy. Recoba: I opened the wrong envelope! A gasp erupts around the room. Recoba looks down to the floor. Recoba: Sorry, Copycat, it was an easy mistake. When these awards started, I swear I still had a girlfriend. Copycat can be seen with a WTF look on his face, tears still running down his face. Recoba: Turns out you've lost the open ballot to clear up the room after the awards have ended...Dunne's probably going to decorate the bar in a minute as well. Copycat's expression betrays dejected acceptance as he realizes the far more plausible 'award' he'd win. Recoba: So...THE REAL WINNER OF THE 2021 XHF NETWORK BEST PHYSICAL FEATURE AWARD IS..... {ITS GONNA BE CROSS} Recoba: Death Trap's abdominals... They have their own fan club.

*DT looks around in shock. He adjusts his bowler hat (to the boos of everyone near him, he may be face but damn if the hat isn't a mega heel) and strides onto the stage. He shakes Cross's hand and steps to the mic.* : "I ... I don't know what to say! I mean, I work my tail off for these abs, and after 40 that is no easy feat. But, look between Goth in the room, Dylan's shiny cybernetics, the assortment of lovely ladies and men who spend way too much time at the gym ... man it is pretty cool. It means a lot to see some Italian kid with big time dreams finally get recognition man. Thankfully nobody else had to wait all this time and end up with the short end of the stick. Honestly I can't think of anything more sad than if I had to go home, make my own baked goods, get my Armani suit dry cleaned, and NOT have anything to show for it."*He turns to Cross, sincerely, not realizing what he just said ...* : "Thanks for hosting this man. Maybe Copycat will get one next year... Thanks everyone. It sure is nice to have this, cuz I swear I had a world title belt when all this started... Good night!"*DT flashes the abs to the cheers of ... well just Mistress Discipline and what looks like her laptop, which is hooting and hollering*
