Elise Ares:
So, you think they'll appreciate us now?

Elise sat in a back corner of the arena, polishing her tag team title with a pocket square. Although she’s quite enamored with her Tag Team Championship, you can tell there is a slight bit of tension in the room. With a nervous smile she returned it to the D, who proceeded to do the same.

The D:
Hey. I didn't want this. But Mikey took it too far. He wants the SEG to stay together, we’ll talk. But I’m not giving up my title.

Elise Ares:
It’s so shiny.

The D:
So shiny.

Elise holds the belt up.

Elise Ares:
I can see my reflection in it.

The D:
So can I.

Elise Ares:
Your reflection looks great in it.

The D:
No, yours looks better.

Elise Ares:
I know.

Elise tosses the tag belt over her shoulder, adjusting it twice until it felt just right.

Elise Ares:
Tell Mikey that our demands are as follows…

She waits, as if waiting for an imaginary author to pen her letter of intent.

Elise Ares:
We get to keep the tag team titles, this trophy, and half of Klein.

The D:
The top half or the bottom half?

Elise Ares:
Top. That’s the human part, right?

The D:
Like a mermaid?

Elise Ares:
He’s like half man, half box, right?

The D:
Well, then wouldn’t the top half be the box part?

Elise Ares:
Oh. Then, the bottom part is…

Elise and The D sit in an awkward silence. They both slowly turn their heads to Klein, who’s standing off camera. The camera zooms out to reveal him, waving toward the duo. He then begins to pelvic thrust in their general direction, eliciting groans of disgust.

The D:
Put that away.

Elise Ares:
No one wants to see you make box babies.

The D stands angrily as the camera focuses on the tag champs, and leaves Klein just off camera.

The D:
Why are you miming now!? You’re always stuck in a box!

Elise Ares:
You know what? Scratch that last part. They can probably keep Klein.

The D:
I’m okay with that.

The camera pans back to Klein again, who plays the Sad Charlie Brown music over his phone speak, lowers his box and sulks out of view. The D jumps over to follow and Elise just sighs.

The D: (offscreen)
C’mon! We were kidding! I'll buy nachos?!

Elise looks back at her own reflection in the title, before slowly she forces a smile. Perhaps if one tries hard enough, everything will be back to normal.
