To Boldly Go: [Part 1]
[Open to a POP!]
[A yellow cab slowly pulls up to the arena and coming to a halt, the breaks screech to a squeaky stop. Taking a first person's perspective, the door swings open and out steps a man wearing a bright red Cincinnati Reds jacket with a matching hat turned backwards. He is talking on his cell phone as we catch the tail end of his conversation...]
Trek: Nothing fancy. Just going to do what I came to do tonight and then I'm headed home.
[Not even a smile comes across Trek's face when in the distance you hear a familiar voice yelling alongside the sounds of clanging heel.]
[Click! Click! Click! Click!]
Trek: Hey, I got to go...
[Closing in like a heat seeking missile, Candice comes flying into the scene with her blouse miss buttoned. She adjusting her jugs and primping her hair, she tries to get a quick word in with Trek.]
Candice: Come on boys! This one could open the show! Trek! Let me get a word with you! Trek!
Trek: [Sigh] ...What do you know, it's the annoying bitch that always unbuttons her blouse and tries to sleep with everyone.
Candice: I'm not sure were you get your information about my personal life Trek, but I see you must have went to the new Sex in the City movie with your boyfriends.
Crowd: [OH!]
[Putting her free hand on her hip, Candice looks at Trek with a cock-eyed gaze.]
Trek: I seriously have to go.
[Snap!]
[Trek closes up his flip face phone and pulls his duffle bag from the back seat of the car shutting the door as the cab drives away.]
Candice: Come on Trek!
[Trek moves his way to the door not really paying her much mind. Seeing her golden opportunity going down the drain, Hoffman goes small ball.]
Candice: Is that your ring attire in the bag?
Trek: Nope, just the gold I'm about to give back.
Crowd: [BOO!]
Candice: You couldn't possibly be serious about retiring? You didn't even give the BACW a chance!
Trek: What's there to chance, I came, won gold, was ignored, and now it's time to go.
Candice: You know Mr. Batee is going to be one pissed off if you dishonor his tag team titles.
Trek: I don't care what Batee thinks.
Candice: How will you ever be able to face your fans again after walking out on them?
Trek: Fans?
Crowd: [POP!]
Candice: Yes Trek! I'm sure there are a few people at least out there that came to see you wrestle and you alone. Are you really going to disappoint them like this?
[Trek stops to look at her...]
Trek: Why do you care? Why does anyone care? It's the likes of Spectre, Sloan, and Ulfric who fill these seats now days. But, I can't blame them.
Candice: Don't you hear them cheering for you?
Trek: Why would they cheer for me?
[With Trek saying that, he tugs on the door to the building opening it up as Candice and the camera operator follow close behind.]
Candice: One more question Trek! Please!
[Trek walks slowly with his head hung low grazing his eyes along the ground following each footstep. Not missing a beat, Candice continues to pursue an interview.]
Candice: What are you going to say to Mr. Batee?
Trek: I don't think that's any of your business nor should it be any of your concern. They will find new owners while I'm back at the hotel watching TVMA live on television. Hell, I might even have me a beer or two. So why don't you go unbutton your blouse on someone else around here and ask them your stupid little questions.
Candice: Well I never!
Trek: That's not what I heard...
[A 7 year old boy approaches Trek in a wheel chair named Mikey. Apparently the boy has something wrong with his legs and will probably never be able to walk again.]
Mikey: [Looking through super huge bifocals] Mr. Trek?
[Trek has a hard time looking down at him without feeling sorry.]
Mikey: Can you sign this for me?
[Raising up a 8x11 portrait of Trek.]
Trek: Sure thing kid.
[Trek kneels down placing the duffle bag on the ground.]
Mikey: My dad says his boss told him you're not going to wrestle anymore. Please say it isn't so!
[Trek nods...]
Trek: He's probably right kid.
Mikey: Please don't!
[Trek scribbles his name on the portrait and hands it back.]
Mikey: He says you would be the champion if you just found your swagger.
[Trek smiles as he takes the portrait back from him. He scribbles something above his name before handing it right back to Mikey along with the marker.]
Trek: Yeah, you're probably right too. But, that's the problem kid, everyone seems to be right these days; everyone but me.
[Trek picks his duffle bag back up as Candice runs back in to the picture.]
Candice: Well folks, that's all for now. I'm your sexy on the scene xZone reporter Candice Hoffman saying when it's the end of the road, you've got to get down on your hands knees and just do it!
Mikey: Lady, what does "realize the dream" mean?
Candice: What?
[Candice looks down at the autograph reading what Trek has scribbled.]
Candice: Oh my God.
