[The Robinson’s, Jett and Jumbo, are trying to look menacing. Clad in matching tank tops and and shorts, the attire shows off Jumbo’s large physique but also Jett’s svelteness. Next to them is Junior, wearing a shirt and a tie with the cuffs rolled up. He is seated in a wheelchair. Behind them, a television plays matches from what looks like their dad, Jab Robinson.]
Jumbo: “Look Wicked! You don’t wanna mess with us because we’ll CRUSH you!”
Jett: “Oh yeah! You wanna step into the ring with the Robinson’s, we will BEAT you!”
Jumbo & Jett hulk up a bit and then scream: “YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!”
[Junior looks at them nonplussed and shakes his head.]
Jumbo: “You think you’re gonna beat us up? You’ve got another coming!”
Jett: “We’re the baddest new team on the block and we’re going to CRUSH YOU!!!!!!!”
Jumbo & Jett hulk up a bit and then scream again: “YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!”
Junior: “….You just said that?”
Jumbo: “Said what?”
Junior: “That you’re going to crush them!”
Jett: “So?”
Junior: “Here, let me talk…”
[Junior rolls his wheelchair so now he’s center frame. His two brothers standing behind him.]
Junior: “You can still look mean if you want.”
[Jumbo and Jett both smile at each other but then put on MEAN MUGS and strike HULKING POSES.]
Junior: “We, the Robinson’s face THE WICKED on Episode 34 and it will be our toughest test yet. The Wicked are a proven tag team that cares more about brutalizing their opponents than winning matches. Vicious is a big man with big moves and when he starts coming it’s like a freight truck, you better move out of the way. Vile is as good of a striker as they come, man or woman. She can hit her opponent from every angle and it’s usually lights out before they ever know what happened. To say that we are taking our opponent very seriously is an understatement. To say that we do not respect the Wicked’s particular brand of… punishment would be a lie.”
Junior: “But let me tell you about the Robinson’s. We came to UP! Wrestling to win. We plan to beat every single person in front of us and eventually win the tag team titles. We pursue EXCELLENCE, not blood, not guts, not some instant sadistic gratification. If Vile and Vicious care more about violence than winning, GREAT. We will plan accordingly.”
Junior: “I am reminded of an old passage from Sun-Tzu and this is our coda going into the match: Let your plans be dark and as impenetrable as night. Our opponent has told us their plans, not surprising, since they are very transparent. The big bad wolves are going to come to town and beat us up and we’ll be ready.”
Junior: “Lastly, let me address this ableist nonsense. When the Jumbo and Jett pin one of you, get the W and cement themselves as the HOTTEST young tag team in UP! Be sure to take a look at my face. It’ll be the gameplan of a cripple that beat you.”
[There is silence, followed by Jumbo and Jett looking at their brother. Their mean mugs turn to smiles and hugs.]
Jumbo: “Okay big bro! Yeah, you really told ‘em! You really had that pent up!”
Jett: “Yeah, we’re going to beat them FOOLS, we’re going to CRUSH them!”
[Junior rolls his eyes as the scene fades to black.]
Jumbo: “Look Wicked! You don’t wanna mess with us because we’ll CRUSH you!”
