The scene is set at a nearby fast food joint, the servers constantly on their feet as they move back and forth behind the counter. There is a small line leading up to the counter, a couple of people looking frustrated as the man behind the register is looking to take the order of Robert Garland...
Employee - So... that'd be two double cheese burgers and a small fry?
Robert Garland - Are you even listenin'? You forgot the milkshake again!
Employee - So... One milkshake, and a small fry?
Robert Garland - Are you shittin' me? Come one man! Wake up and listen for once in your life! TWO double cheeseburgers, ONE small fry, and ONE vanilla milkshake! Are you with me now?
Employee - *Playing on his iPhone* Yeah... Would you like fries with that?
An audible sigh can be heard from a few of the other customers, Garland looking like he's going to boil over as he notices Travis making his way into the building. Looking to chat with his manager, Garland turns back to the inattentive employee and gives a short and quick "Yes." As he walks from the counter, the next person takes his place and Garland grabs his cup to head over to the drink machine. Travis makes his way over, with a piece of poster paper in hand.
Travis Rech - Yo Garland! Have ya seen tha new MSW poster? I just picked one up from tha nearby gas station an', of course, its got ya front an' center! My boy Garland is tha biggest thin' in tha industry again! I mean, I know we're here ta expose Frank Washington, but this would make any manager feel good, ya know?
Robert Garland - Heh... You know I don't like to pay attention to these things. Either way, hand it over, so I can check out what the show's lookin' like.
Garland finishes pouring his drink, Rech handing the poster over as the two of them wait for Garland's order. After a quick glance over, Garland raises an eyebrow. Rech seems to know where this is going as he flashes a smile, supposedly curious about Garland's reaction to a familiar name.
Robert Garland - Robert Garland... vs... Daniel Smart!? Well, now! Isn't that a treat! They're basically givin' me a by on the first round of the tournament! Wasn't he Michael's manager for a bit? What's this joke doin' in the ring booked up against me?!
Garland laughs out loud, slightly annoying a few of the other nearby customers. Travis just looks on, but starts checking for Garland's order to be done before Garland continues to talk about the next show's card.
Robert Garland - I mean... No disrespect to Michael, Rech. That man was a master technician of the ring. The last champion of GWF's Sunday Brunch, a great tag team partner and stable mate of mine over a few years... A dangerous psychopath who ended his career tryin' to make another man's life a livin' hell. That's my kind of guy! I ought to thank the MSW for remindin' me of him! Its that selfless ambition of exposin' Chris Williams that made Michael Smart as ruthless as he's ever been, and I can respect that! Maybe after I beat down his cousin, we can pull his carcass off the ring mat and ask how Michael's been.
Travis Rech - Speakin' of makin' another man's life ah livin' hell, what are ya plannin' ta do about Frank Washington this week? The way he panders ta those fans while leading them on like he does is enough ta make even my blood boil.
Robert Garland - You mean the way he lies to them? The way he tries to wrap them around his finger with all of his bullsh*t words as he looks to gather them all in his corner while he subtlety tries to hurt the rest of the roster? The way he poses as a cult leader for those ignorant onlookers who are eatin' up his every promo? The man's a genius, Rech. He's goin' out of his way to make me look like the bad guy here. If those fans knew better, they wouldn't be cheerin' him, they'd be throwin' their drinks and food wrappers every chance they could! What kind of man gets cheered after years of torturin' another for his own amusement?
That's why I've taken on the burden of showin' those fans the truth. They may hate me now... But when the truth is revealed and Frank turns on a fellow friend, or stabs someone in the back for a title shot... They'll notice I was right all along and flock behind me as I gather their cheers and bring Frank's career to an end! That bein' said... Frank Washington will have to get a pass from me this week as I don't think I'll be able to handle him after I get my dose of enjoyment from another squash match! However... Even though I may not be messin' with him...
Travis Rech - *Chuckling* I hear ya loud an' clear. Also, don't ya think ya should be trainin' instead of eatin' fast food?
At that moment, Garland's order is placed on the counter, the uncaring employee still behind the register as Garland grabs at his bag. He opens it up an notices his fries are missing. With an exasperated grunt, Garland calls out to the employee.
Robert Garland - I feel like somethin's wrong with my order... Can you come double check?
The employee rolls his eyes and walks over, iPhone still in hand. Before he can say anything, Garland reers back and strikes him hard across the face! Rech's mouth is agape as Garland calls back and runs for the door.
Travis Rech - Geeze Garland! Are you tryin' ta go back ta prison!?
Robert Garland - Just practicin' my punches for Wednesday night!
Employee - So... that'd be two double cheese burgers and a small fry?
