Backstage, 11:30 AM. Coastal Zone Championship Wrestling. Locker Room Left.

 

CZCW Christmas Chaos has just ended. Fox Mask, tired, wraps his fists in tape. His ride from the arena in sunny San Jose seems delayed.

The Guru
: Hey, you! Fox man!

 

[The Guru lunges at "fox man". He beats down with his cane the retired 7-time, SEVEN time CZCW Champion, smack after smack. "Fox Man's" grey mask bleeds a bright shade of burgundy]

 

The Guru
: Listen here, fox man! This was MY job, MY home! You... you rat! You took it all away from ME!

 

[The locker room doors opens. Light wanders in from the hallway]

Cliff Anderson
, CZCW Owner: That's quite enough, Guru. And FYI, this was my choice.

 

Cliff Anderson
: Pack your s**t, Guru. CZCW wishes you well in your future endeavors.

 

The Guru
: You! Y --

 

Cliff Anderson
: Guru, The Coastal Zone means more than just "you" getting back at SWF. We're a wrestling company now, not your petty vanity project!

 

The Guru
: Cliff, you.. you.. backstabber!

San Jose, Downtown. High noon.

 

One relatively hip young women and one aging masked wrestler sit outside an upscale cafe. On the table, two small bubble teas, one fluorescent pink and the other drab green.

 

They are engaged in fairly exuberant discussion for several minutes. The wrestler is clearly engaged in the conversation. But, they're also confused. Then, there's a sudden pause in discussion.

Fox Mask
: "Humph", "Oof", "Oof"!

 

[Fox Mask accidentally swallowed a boba from the bubble tea down his windpipe! He struggles for air for several seconds before disposing it into the napkin]

 

Juliet Balconi
: "I guess it's your first time. You have to chew on them a bit".

 

Fox Mask
: "No, no. I get it".

 

Juliet Balconi
: "So, anyway, that's what I was thinking. They'd think we were together. In a shoot."

 

[Fox Mask surveys the scene neurotically]

 

Fox Mask
: "I'm not a young man anymore. I'm rounding 40. And you're college-age. Wouldn't that be... a bit wrong?"

 

[balconi stops speaking. She tries to rephrase her idea into terms Fox Mask will understand]

 

Juliet Balconi
: "No, no. I meant on-screen. We would date in Kayfabe. We'd pretend in a way the fans could believe."

 

[Fox Mask scratches his head. This agitates the wound from a few nights ago. He begins bleeding]

 

Juliet Balconi
: "The fans know you're booking. We'd get some good heat from the angle. And I'm well qualified. I'm a professional actor -- the only person in CZCW with any stage experience."

 

Fox Mask
: "I get it now. That sounds like a solid angle. I'll green-light it."

 

Juliet Balconi
: "I will admit that the blood makes you look pretty rugged. Handsome".

 

[balconi giggles. Fox rushes to cover up the blood stain with his hands]

 

Fox Mask
: "I should probably go. I need to get this checked on. I'll touch base later."

 

Juliet Balconi
: "Okay. See you at Revolution."

 

Fox Mask
: "Au revior, Juliet".

 

[Fox Mask bows dramatically. His elbow hits the chair, causing him to flinch. Balconi bursts out laughing. A minute or two later, both wrestlers make their way towards the parking lot]
