The scene opens with FloJo sitting in the hallway listening to music after her Future Investment match. She then decides to wonder around the backstage area, waving at coworkers while not wanting to be bothered.
Jim Black is waving back at her….He approaches
FloJo: Dang it.
Jim: Hello FloJo, may I ask about your thoughts on your Lution match?
FloJo: Uhh. Sure.
FloJo puts her phone away.
FloJo: It was..cool...Yeah...Last year, I was working the stands, now I’m on prime...Maybe next time I’ll be on the Main show…...I guess. I'm on the promotional material which is freaking neat.
Jim: I saw that you made no attempt to climb the ladder….
FloJo: Haha. I was caught up in the moment, I suppose. I forgot I had a match to win. I’m a bit afraid of heights too. I know it doesn’t make sense in this world, but hey…
Jim sighs
Jim: You know, if you faced your fears and focus, it could’ve been YOU and not Ashley with that briefcase.
FloJo: I know...But who’d want to see that? Ashley was the best one outcome.
FloJo Turns her back away from Jim to vent.
FloJo: Hey Jim, have you ever felt...Small?
Jim: Well...No FloJo, my wife tells me how big I am all the time. Haha.
FloJo has a stern look on her face.
FloJo: Like the last time I felt like a big deal was when I fought Dragana for the women’s championship. Big match FloJo. Peak FloJo.
While FloJo is rambling, Jim is being distracted by one of the producers.
FloJo: Now, i’m kinda just a side character, watching, cheer leading. Valkyrie is fighting Blaine for the championship, I killed Ashley on Turmoil but it didn’t matter, Her and Empress are a unit and I haven’t spoken to Belle since Road 2 Glory but she’ll be doing some good things.
FloJo: I disappeared and the women's division was fine.
FloJo: I don’t have my own merch anymore due to low sales…I've let my fanbase of weebs and Sh*tposters down.
FloJo takes a deep breath : I don’t mind not getting the opportunity to challenge for the title again. whatever. I got figure out what I suppose to do...Maybe….if--
FloJo turns around to see Jim chatting with a producer.
FloJo: Uh..Jim?
Jim: Oh sorry FloJo, I was distracted it was kinda important. Now, what were you saying before I was interrupted.
FloJo: Uh, I was, just talking about how hype that episode of Attack on Titan was…
Jim: Ha! You kids and your Chinese cartoons.
Jim: Here, Kiddo.
Jim reaches over and hands FloJo a slushie.
Jim: It's Black Cherry flavored.
Jim pats FloJo on her shoulder and walks away while FloJo walks in the opposite direction looking over her shoulder.
FloJo takes a sip
FloJo:-sigh-
Scene ends
The camera cuts to the locker room where we see Empress throwing a fit. She starts kicking the locker repeatedly yelling in Japanese and screaming at the top of her lungs.
Empress: I FUCKING HAD IT IN MY HANDS!! If she wasn’t in my way...
Empress turns to see Ashley Moore walking into the locker room holding the FI case and a huge smile on her face. She takes a seat on the bench.
Ashley Moore: What is your problem? You should be happy for me ... You are still mad that I wanted you to help me win, aren’t you? Apparently, I didn’t even need your help.
Empress: Happy For You! Your fucking ego is too much for one person to handle. I put everything on the line to help you and not once have you returned the favor.
Ashley Moore: You are so ungrateful. Before we met you were a wreck. The only thing you did was beating up people after you once again lost a match.
Empress: Before I arrived you had no friends, no home, and losing to Valkyrie every day of the week! No one wanted to be friends with a stuck up bitch like you.
You can clearly see in Ashley facial expression that a sore point was hit because all the happiness she had is now gone.
Ashley Moore: Maybe that is true but does that even matter now. You showed that I can trust in you just as much as I can trust in anyone else here.
Ashley Moore: You are no different than Valkyrie!
Empress gets ready to comment but stops and slams her locker shut. Before staring down at the floor as a tear runs down her face.
Empress: See that is where you are wrong. We were like sisters and I would have happily given you the case to help you win. But, you can’t think of anyone other than yourself for 5 damn seconds.
Empress: If anyone is like Valkyrie it's you.
Ashley stands up and turns to leave the locker room, but stops in the door and looks back to Empress and then at the contract she just won.
Ashley Moore: Was it really worth it?
Empress: I could ask you the same thing.
Ashley walks out the door as the camera pans back over to Empress. She looks down to find the BBF ring she threw at Ashley during the last Turmoil show on the bench where Ashley sat down. Empress picks up the ring staring at it before the camera cuts back to the arena.
