FADE IN:
INT. KATANA RESTAURANT - SUNSET BOULEVARD, HOLLYWOOD - SUNDAY, JUNE 26, 2016 - NIGHT.
The top quality Japanese cuisine on offer introduces the scene, as highly skilled masters of cooking prepare some elegant, intricate dishes for the patrons choosing to dine here tonight.
It’s busy, but over in a V.I.P section with their own private booth are ERNIE ‘PRETTY BOY’ PARKER and his new client, TRIXIE.
They’re smiling, drinking, eating and sharing conversation when we join them.
Trixie pulls out her phone to casually read the page she was last on, the blog post and tuts as she reads the ugly truth again.
His words trail off as he notices what she’s doing.
Trixie looks up to meet his gaze
Trixie sighs
Trixie puts her face in her hands to cover it
‘Pretty Boy’ spots an opportunity. He adjusts his body language to be more forward and assertive.
Parker gestures for her to give him the phone. Trixie hands him the phone and takes a deep breath.
Trixie picks at her plate of the remaining food but doesn’t eat. Ernie, on the other hand, studies the blog article and the photographs.
Trixie eyeballs the ‘Don’ as he stares at her phone. He clears his throat and puts it away.
He looks shifty, concealing the fact he was perving on her naughty photos. The blonde doesn’t seem to notice.
Ernie nearly chokes on his salmon roll.
Trixie leans in to hear him and smiles from ear to ear
Trixie puts her hands on her lap to listen attentively to Ernie.
Trixie grins and nods at every word
Parker raises his glass.
Trixie raises her glass and they connect gently.
Trixie giggles with excitement and quenches it with a small sip of wine. She sighs and looks around the restaurant for any cameras and smiles with none in sight
Pause.
‘Pretty Boy’ grins, which could be mistaken for looking quite sinister.
The pair continue their dining experience, as we

ERNIE
Ah, to be that lethal again. The way you
took her apart was a sight to behold, my
darling! I was in awe at your performance
and knew, right away, that I had to have you!
TRIXIE
Thanks Ernie. I totally killed it in my
first match; the neck breaker, the crowd,
it was incredible. And I’m so glad you
picked me, especially after the bad news.
I have to say you’ve been a great ray of
sunshine in the clouds

You’re the real sun beam around here,
my dear.

What’s that you’ve got there?

Trixie looks up to meet his gaze
TRIXIE
Oh! Just this article someone wrote. The whole
reason I lost the Aqua Drop deal. I must have
read it a hundred times since it came out.
Why would they write this kind of thing?
ERNIE
Oh, is this the blog you were talking about
earlier during the show? The one with the
candid photographs?

TRIXIE
Yes, some pretty obscene photos got taken.
I was just enjoying a night out. I kept looking
at my timeline and decided to snap a pic of
myself enjoying a little wild night and then
a few drinks later it all went to hell.
No more Aqua Drop because of it.

‘Pretty Boy’ spots an opportunity. He adjusts his body language to be more forward and assertive.
ERNIE
You know, I have the solution to this. You just
have to stop looking at the article! Out of sight,
out of mind. In fact, you better give it to me
to look after. Come on, hand it over.

Alright. You know what’s best. Be careful with it
though. I have my life on that.

Sorry, I was just… shocked… by the ghastly

So Ernie. I am in the semifinals. The talent all
seem to think I’m nobody, even though I have that
fast victory. I was hoping to get to talk about the
training I should do against Lara. I’m not the best

Ernie nearly chokes on his salmon roll.
ERNIE
Yes, we should definitely work together on
submissions and other things. In fact, I
have a very thorough, unorthodox training
routine, which may seem strange to you at
first, but if you just do as I say, you’ll
be a killer inside that ring!

TRIXIE
(Excited)
Yes, I’m hoping to be a killer in the ring,
whatever you say. I could use a good routine
to help me in this semi-final and final round
next week. I would love to rub it in to Aqua
Drop that I won the big world belt. What’s the
routine? Is it hard?

(Looking coy)
Oh, it’s hard alright. Probably harder than
I ever remember it being before, in fact.
But I’m confident you can handle it. Why don’t
we agree to meeting together tomorrow morning
and I’ll run you through the first day? It’ll
be an intense week but you’ll come out of it
a better woman.

Tomorrow morning sounds perfect. You’ll take my
mind off everything and just let me focus on this
training. Let it be hard, I can do it. I know I can.

I’m quite sure of it, my dear. A toast! To us.

TRIXIE
I really think I should probably work
on submissions though. Lara basically
said I have no chance of escaping her
holds. I think it’s probably best I don’t
let her grab me at all right? Or should I?
What do you think is best?

ERNIE
Well, I could sit here and dissect a game
plan all night long, but the best thing for
us to do would be to go over it tomorrow in
training. I’ll put you in some tight holds;
really tight holds and I’ll see how you handle
it. Once I’ve seen you trying to escape my grip,
I’ll know how to approach everything.
TRIXIE
Well thank you Ernie. You’re such a sweetie.
So glad I have you on my side.
