Cort: Are you kidding me! That slippery, no good, football-obsessed--no! Soccer-obsessed, since that is the greatest insult of all to any european! That little… no racial slurs, Cort, no racial slurs.
He breathes and calms down.
Cort: I am never going to live this down. I’ve lost three straight matches to a rookie who pays more attention to sports than sports entertainment! And the worst thing is… I haven’t found the other notable American!
Cort bursts into a closet.
Cort: Bill Nye the Science Guy!
No response.
Cort: Damn. Missed him in catering ‘cause I had to go do the match… and he wasn’t in the bathroom… or the locker room… but all the employees are telling me he’s here! Somewhere!
A ring worker walks by.
Cort: HEY YOU.
The worker starts to run away, clearly traumatized by the cavalier attitude of OCW wrestlers when it comes to workplace safety. Cort chases after.
Cort: I’m not gonna beat you up! I passed my edgy rookie phase! I just wanna know where Jackson Montgomery is! Stop! Running! I don’t… do… cardio...
The worker shouts behind him, still running.
Worker: I saw him head for Sensation’s office!
He then disappears around a corner.
Cort: The office, eh?
He makes his way through the halls until he finds… the back of Jackson Montgomery, down at the end of a hall. Cort runs to catch him, but he’s into the office--and locked the door--just as Cort arrives.
Cort: GAH! What is this Scooby-Doo crap! Fine. I’ll just wait out here ‘till they’re done…
The Camera Pans To The Announce Team!
He is on a mission!
It's impossible!
The scene opens in the Gorilla Position: Valkyrie is ready for her upcoming match against Aerith. While she is speaking with a member of the Production Team, Cheryl Stixx is seen approaching
Valkyrie: Give me a mic. I want to say something before my match.
Production Team Member: Fine. You have 10 minutes.
Cheryl Stixx: Valk!
Valkyrie: What’s up Stixx? What are you doing here?
Cheryl Stixx: Well, I heard about your match tonight. And because I know how you've been feeling about Aerith lately, I wanted to check on you and wish you good luck! I'll be watching you and... if you need any help maybe I can use some of my old tricks.
Cheryl Stixx: I am KIDDING… So, don’t freak out! And I also know what you're capable of and I trust you. So go out there and break that fake bitch in two! #FFF, f*ck fake friends!
Valkyrie: Thanks for showing up. This might very well be the biggest match of my career. I can’t mess up.
Valkyrie: And you are right: I need to keep my emotions in check, I got carried away by my hatred towards her recently. I must stay focused.
Cheryl and Valkyrie awkwardly share a hug, quickly interrupted by a member of the staff
Production Team Member: It’s your turn, Little Red Riding Hood. Go out there.
Valkyrie: You are probably wondering what am I doing here tonight, since I’m a Turmoil wrestler.
Valkyrie: You see, every good friendship must be built around a pact. And me and Cheryl made one last Saturday: she swore to me and the fans that she will do her best to become the face of Turmoil’s female division.
Valkyrie: And then she challenged me to do the same on Riot.
Valkyrie: But don’t get us wrong: it’s not about stealing the spotlight or basking in some sort of power fantasy. It’s about making OCW a better place for everyone, it’s about proving that hard work and dedication can get you anywhere.
Valkyrie: And to me, personally, it’s about what it’s always been about: leading by example and being a role model for the future generations.
She points to a couple of kiddos in the front row. One of them is wearing the Straight Outta Valhalla t-shirt, while the other has the newest #DoItForValk hoodie on
Valkyrie: Now here’s the tricky part: Riot is very different from Turmoil.
Valkyrie: In fact, here on Riot there are no Rookies: only seasoned veterans.
Valkyrie: But if you think this is going to stop me from keeping the promise I made to Cheryl, you better think again…
The lights suddenly go out, as Heather Angelo’s music starts echoing through the arena. The Harbinger of Death makes her way to the ring while the camera lingers on the fans’ reaction: some look intrigued, other worried for what they think it’s about to happen
Heather never loses sight of Valkyrie as she steps into the ring. She heads over to the pint size warrior and paces back and forth in front of her. Much like wolf about to pounce on its prey.
Heather then bursts into laughter as Valkyrie her mic tight with both hands. Valkyrie stands her ground and stands completely still.
After all that’s what you do to keep fiendishly wild animals from attacking.
Heather raises the mic and her laughter quickly dissipates.
Heather: How dare you? How dare you come over to Riot thinking we want...excuse me…
Heather walks over to the ropes and checks the crowd.
Heather: What I want to hear!
Heather: No one truly cares about what any of you want!
Heather quickly turns her attention back to Valkyrie.
Heather: None of the Dud-Shells in the back are relevant enough to care about what they want!
Heather: It’s all about ME now!
A rumble of boos fills the arena. Heather closes her eyes, takes a deep breath, exhales and continues.
Heather: I’ve been taken a backseat for The Cheat’s agenda. I’ve taken the backseat for Big Cheat’s agenda.
Heather walks in closer to Valkyrie. There’s a brief moment of silence as both wrestlers lock eyes with each other.
The OCW Universe feels the tension growing.
Heather: I even taken the backseat for H2O.
A surprisingly mixture of boos and cheers for the former OCW Lightheavyweight Champion.
Heather: Ever since you came along Harvey has been distracted. He is addicted and attracted to success which is something that you’ve become very familiar with.
Heather: You will potentially share something in common with him. That is possibly becoming The Head Rookie of The Year. Something I couldn’t accomplish.
Heather: You’d can be quite possibly the first woman to ever do so.
Heather puts the mic in her elbow. She then nods and claps for Valkyrie. Heather puts the mic back in her hands to speak again but was interrupted.
Valkyrie: You are trying to mess with me Heather, but it won’t work: I’m humble. I’m not “successful”, I’m not a champion, I’m not the #1 contender either and I’ve never main evented a show unlike other Rookies.
Valkyrie: I still have a lot to prove. Actually, I still have everything to prove and that’s why I am here tonight. Whether it will be against you, Kat, Bertha, Anna, Alexa or even Dragana, I’ll prove that I can hang with the big girls of OCW, not just with the Rookies.
Valkyrie: Cheryl will do her thing on Turmoil and I will do my part here on Riot.
Valkyrie: And as far as Harv… I mean, H2O is concerned, I have no idea what you are talking about.
The crowd goes “Ooooh” as soon as she mentions his name
Heather: You think I’m stupid, Val-
A hard thud comes over the PA system as Heather throws her mic down onto the ring. You can read Heather’s lips as some very “thoughtful” words come out of her mouth once she mentioned H2O.
She makes her way towards Valkyrie as Aerith music hits.
Valkyrie just shrugs her shoulders towards the angry Harbinger of Death. You can read Valkyrie’s lips as she says, “Sorry.” to Heather.
Officials push Heather out the ring to get the match underway.
Valkyrie vs Aerith
The camera pans to the announce team.
SHE GOT ALL OF IT!
WOW!
The Clark Experience was not as crowded. And as they approached Nate could see that two women were holding their right hands limp with ice covering their fists as they exited the exhibit. Grandma just shook her head and sighed. But mom walked right up to the counter.
Mom: What is this?
Staff: This is an interactive experience! You’re gonna love it. You will be assigned a random OCW Superstar and interview them. The goal is not to punch them.
Mom: Is Tibby available?
Staff: No, I’m sorry. We only use our low level superstars that couldn’t get a booth of their own.
Mom: Are they wearing their ring gear.
Staff: Um...yeah?
Mom turned to grandma and I: You two go along, I’m gonna check this out.
Walking away, I heard the nice staff lady tell my mom that she had drawn Loki. Mom didn’t sound happy. One step closer to freedom. Grandma would be easy to give the slip. She didn’t move as fast as him and was easily distracted, but he couldn’t just run away.
She would yell. And nana could yell loud. He had to make it look like her mistake. And yet, even though she was 92 years old, and her knees ache all the time, she started moving fast, tugging him along by the hand.
Where were they going?
The realization dawned on him in cold dread. He didn’t want to go. He hated him. Dad said he was evil, and mom just wished all those people would find Jesus. He didn’t know what they meant, but absolutely no one from Mobile, Alabama liked B17...except grandma.
Oh my God. This isn’t right.

Grandma: I will get Trance butt! That way there will be enough for the whole family! You wait here.
Nate grinned. His moment had arrived. Whistling he began his exploration alone. A large sign was illuminated in the distance: Be an OCW Referee!
