(Dillian DeHaven is working on his car in a garage at the Ragsdale compound. He is wearing a plain black tee and blue jeans. A motorcycle is heard approaching outside. The engine is turned off and in walks Eric "Butch" Ragsdale. He's wearing a black Sin City Disciples tee and blue jeans.)
Butch: Whassup bro?
DeHaven: Not much. Wrenching on the car.
(DeHaven is working on a 1989 Camaro 1LE)
Butch: Hey I got some tickets!
DeHaven: What tickets?
Butch (excited): Tickets to the Sippy Cup Qualifier!
(DeHaven looks confused.)
DeHaven: Uh, what's that?
Butch: You don't know what that is?
DeHaven: No.
Butch: It's the XHF network's CAR event this month. You've heard about CAR, right?
DeHaven: Yeah.
Butch: So this is their monthly race and I scored some tickets, bro. I know one of the bitches that works in HR for XHF.
(DeHaven looks confused.)
Butch: Oh I know what you're thinking. Since Cliff got suspended for roughing up an XHF official, why would we be getting tickets from one of their people? Well, Cliff's been talking to their HR girl and she's been keeping him updated on this suspension thing. She feels bad for Cliff and she's working to try and get him reinstated and repair his relationship with the XHF people. It's the XHF people that aren't letting UPW management reinstate him. She didn't like that douche bag that Cliff attacked anyway. But anyway, she got us tickets AND a backstage pass to this show.
DeHaven: Cool.
Butch: You don't look too excited!
DeHaven: It's all good.
Butch: You're so freakin' mellow. That's awesome. I wish I was like that. My mouth always gets me in trouble.
(DeHaven laughs as Butch pulls a Red Bull out of the fridge.)
Butch: Ever think about becoming a two-sport athlete?
DeHaven: Never did.
Butch: They're looking for drivers. You like fast cars, right? You might wanna get in on it. They can use a guy like you.
DeHaven: I'll check it out.
Butch: You can get paid for driving fast cars instead of paying the price for driving fast cars. Ya know?
(DeHaven laughs)
Butch: So anyway, we got that going on and I got my first UPW singles match on the next Free For All.
DeHaven: Against who?
Butch: Jumbo Robinson.
(DeHaven laughs and shakes his head.)
Butch: I can't wait to get him in the ring. He's scared. I can tell.
(DeHaven nods)
Butch: He has a lot of nerve to call my family a "fool family" after watching his family embarrass themselves every week on the (looks at the camera) XHF network. He knows I'm dangerous and he's right about that. Looks like he's bringing his goofy family along. So you got my back?
DeHaven: Absolutely.
Butch: Awesome. You know I'm not a popular guy there and you're the only guy I can count on right now. Nathaniel is doing his own thing and I understand. He has bigger fish to fry. In the meantime, I need you to watch my back and keep the rest of his family outta my business. Can you do that for me?
DeHaven: For sure.
Butch: Good.
(Butch hands DeHaven his taser and then his phone rings.)
Butch: That's Cliff. Be right back.
(Butch walks out of the garage and answers the phone as the screen fades to black.)
