CHAPTER 1: OCW SPOTLIGHT (OCW VOL. 1 - ACT 3)

CHAPTER 1: OCW SPOTLIGHT

[The screen fades in to show LSD and Ricardo in center view and sitting in chairs.]

LSD: Hi guys.

Ricardo: No, no. I say hello.

[LSD chuckles while nodding]

LSD: My bad, I’m just, I’m nervous here. Being on camera and everything is just so

[Ricardo hands LSD an apple. LSD stares at it, grabs it and takes a bite.]

Ricardo: Don’t do that again, or I fire you. Now let’s start the show.

[Ricardo looks at the camera]

LSD (Mouth Full): Welcome to OCW Spotlight, I’m Larry Saint Dubois and this is our host: Ricardo!

Ricardo: Hola! I’m Ricardo and I’m the best OCW has ever seen. I am here with our guest and it is the best person we could ask for.

[LSD gulps down the apple bite.]

LSD: I thought we were getting that sexy Polish girl from the commercial.

Ricardo: No, she still working on Visa. We have someone else here, the major attraction, right next to us.

[LSD waves to the guest who is off camera. The camera zooms out to show GENUIN is sitting next to Ricardo and LSD. Applause can be heard, even though no people can be seen at all. This is clearly a closed studio, so the sound of an audience is likely fake.]

Genuin: How’s it going guys?

Ricardo: Mister Genuin. I’m glad you could take time out of your schedule to be here.

Genuin: It’s no big deal. Sully apparently is taking a whole movie or something to tell his stories like a drama queen. I figure this is way easier and I love my fans.

[Cheers play out as if on command]

LSD: Sully is making a movie? We have two movie stars now?

Genuin: No, I’m the movie star! Sully is basic cable at best.

Ricardo: Nobody can beat you at acting, I am sure.

Genuin: The ghost of Bruce Lee can’t even get on my level.

LSD: What about Chuck Norris?

Genuin: Bruce Lee killed Chuck Norris, likely that’s why Bruce died so early in his career. I win is still a win, like my future win against Sully at Lethal Lotto in two weeks.

LSD: Wow, I have to respect that. [To Ricardo] Wait, do I?

[Ricardo shakes his head as if embarrassed by LSD. Ricardo then looks at Genuin, ignoring LSD’s question.]

Ricardo: Mister Genuin, how do you plan to go into your match at Lethal Lotto?

Genuin: With confidence. Next question.

LSD: Did you really date that Ewa girl?

Genuin: Yes, she’s a sweet girl and knows very little English.

LSD: I don’t think she’s known for talking.

Genuin: She’s not.

[Genuin and LSD laugh while Ricardo flips through his notes.]

Ricardo: Okay. You are known for being great at everything you do.

Genuin: That’s right.

Ricardo: Why not tell the people interested why you got into Professional Wrestling here at OCW?

[Genuin nods and takes a moment.]

Genuin: That is a good question. I’ve been in plenty of movies and TV Shows, mostly anything to show my fighting abilities. I’ve won plenty of awards and gotten huge praise for my work. I mean, when you win an award for best fight scene in Japan, you know you’re doing something right. I mean that film, translated as Mr. Diablo, really made my career.

LSD: I thought that was a porno flick. I found it on Netflix and was like “Netflix does porn now? I know what I’m watching tonight.”

Genuin: You should. However, many people seem to think that my great work is done through-

LSD: -no I mean all the porn that’s on Netflix now. Oh, wait, that’s not a porno flick? Oh.

[Genuin takes a moment to take a breath]

Ricardo: Take your time, he’s nervous.

Genuin: Thank you. Many people think I use special effects and stunt doubles to do my work.

Ricardo: No!

Genuin: Yes. They say that I’m not even a martial artist.

Ricardo: What?

Genuin: They claim I’m just some wannabe.

Ricardo: Why would anyone say such things about my good friend Genuin?

Genuin: It breaks my heart whenever I hear this stuff going on. I’m a professional! I put my heart and soul into my work and these “experts” claim that I’m some sort of a fraud.

LSD: What about the movie where you threw a fireball at that guy and then pulled his entire face off?

Genuin: His face was a mask and I was wearing a flaming glove. It was part of my movie: Fire Man.

LSD: I thought that was a porno flick too.

[Ricardo laughs and applauds Genuin]

Ricardo: Very nice. Please continue.

Genuin: Okay, we can talk about the movies later. Now I was looking for all sorts of fight-related tournaments and was approached by OCW to join up. I admit it took some negotiations, but I wanted one major thing: a live audience. Sure none of the other members of the roster are not on my level, but what matters is that I get the attention I demand.

Ricardo: You are getting that attention definitely.

LSD: Weren't you trained for the ring?

Genuin: No need, I was already well-trained to compete before I even entered one.

Ricardo: Yes, please keep attention Lacey.

LSD: Just call me LSD.

Ricardo: Oh I meant to say...never mind. Genuin, what is one thing you want to tell Sully Sphinx?

Genuin: That his movie is going to suck hard.

[All three laugh at that one while a blonde girl shows up wearing a blue blouse and white pants.]

Ricardo: Oh, hello, I was not expecting you until much later. LSD, this is Katherine.

LSD: We’ve already met and her name is Kat. She’s BC’s daughter.

Kat: Kat is short for Katherine LSD.

Ricardo: Yes. This is Kat, her mother is Black Cat.

Kat: Hi.

LSD: Yeah, Black Cat is the chairperson of HXW and from the Perez Family. We will be seeing that promotion in the near future and it is in a partnership with OCW.

Kat: Yes, my Mom runs HXW. I normally hop around both to see how things are going and to train with all my friends.

Ricardo: Si, so you and Genuin are an item. Dating for quite some time?

Genuin: Yeah, I take her to my private beach all the time and we just train.

Kat: Right.

LSD: Sounds boring.

[Ricardo looks annoyed by LSD, but forces a smile for the show. A subtitle shows up at the bottom of the screen that says “Genuin dumped Kat not long after this recording” and stays there so it is obvious to everyone watching.]

Kat: Genuin is more than ready for his fight against Sully Sphinx at Lethal Lotto. Genuin can kick higher than any man in OCW and hit harder as well. In fact, Genuin here has been put in charge of this coming War’s Main Event.

LSD: Can I be in it?

Genuin & Kat: No.

[Ricardo laughs and so does LSD seconds later]

LSD: I had to ask.

Genuin: No offense, but you’re not exactly worthy of even touching my main event. To think of you even coming close to fighting me is offensive. Try for Sully’s spot; I’m sure he’ll pick anybody.

Ricardo: Alright Mister Genuin. We are almost running out of time, so let’s just pull up a few random questions from our fans.

Genuin: Bring it.

[Ricardo gets out his phone and looks at it while tapping on the screen.]

Ricardo: “Question 1: What is your favorite opponent?”

Genuin: It’s a tie between a clone of me and my girl Kat.

[Kat smiles and pretends to be blushing.]

Kat: Aww

Genuin: That’s right.

Ricardo: That’s sweet of you. “Question 2: Are you ever scared?”

Genuin: Hell no.

LSD: That’s not all of it.

Ricardo: I shorten it for the champion.

Genuin: Oh come on, whole thing.

Kat: Yeah.

LSD: Yeah.

Ricardo: Fine. “Are you ever scared? Because Sully Sphinx is a total beast and will kick you so hard in the…that your girlfriend will have to identify as a lesbian to continue dating you.”

[LSD laughs while Genuin doesn’t look so amused.]

Kat: Genuin would be a sexy lesbian.

Genuin: Not helping. Who sent that?

Ricardo: I’m not sure. Screen name is “Ssphinx_666,” a fan maybe?

Genuin: A fan, right. I’m not afraid of anything. Sure as hell not Sully. Did you read what he did? He snuck into my limo to attack me.

Ricardo: I heard and saw on the tele-

Genuin: Yeah, well, I just wish that the cameras kept rolling. I fought back Ricardo, I did.

Ricardo: You did?

Genuin: Oh I did, I fought back from his sneak attack and Sully Sphinx ran away like a coward. He’s lucky the cameras weren't rolling, because I’d be showing that video to everyone until it went viral.

Ricardo: Well I have to tell you-

Genuin: No I’ll say something for the challenger. Sully, I want that free pass you cheated me out of on the last War. Not only am I going to get it back, but you’re going to hand deliver it to me. Want to know why? If you sign that free spot back to me, I’ll convince Tommy Lee to tag up with you at the main event.

[Applause plays out as LSD and Ricardo look surprised. Genuin gets up and takes off the mic.]

LSD: How did you talk him into it?

[Genuin grabs the mic]

Genuin: Sully, if you’re watching, you know I’m telling the truth. Give me what I want and so can you.

[Genuin then does a mic drop like a boss and walks away with Kat soon following behind him. Ricardo and LSD are still in awe.]

Ricardo: Okay, well, it’s time we switched over to our next new show. What it

[Static fades in and the sound has been cut off]
