[ First, there's Phoenix's face. He's standing in one of the hallways of the station, so it's all pretty plain. He smiles, waves once, and gets straight to the point: ]

I have a very important question for you.

[ And the camera cuts to show a corner of the hallway instead, where an innocent stepladder is standing. ]

What do you call this object?

Video.

[groupiedrifter]

[He LITERALLY comes in late with Starbucks. In his hand and everything.]

Oh, that's a Leap Ladder.

You use it to elbow people from a higher jumping position.

[softshoes]

Now you're all just being silly.

[groupiedrifter]

I'm not! All ladders are used to destroy your enemies in my world.

Look, from my files.

[A short video on loop comes through.]

HELP

[softshoes]

[SQUINTS AT THE SCREEN]

There's no way that's a real sport.

[groupiedrifter]

Why wouldn't it be?

[He sounds so dead serious.

Newton is not giving Yujin a moment's peace in this conversation.]

[softshoes]

Well, it looks much more like a circus act than any show of athletic skill.

[i had to check and he's literally RIGHT before wrestling turns into pro-wrestling. rip yujin mikotoba you would've loved wwe money in the bank]

...That can't be safe.

[groupiedrifter]

Huh?

Oh, no, no, it's definitely not safe. Not even a little. These dudes get concussions and lacerations and broken bones aaall the time.

Are you not entertained?

[softshoes]

So long as they're not getting hurt every show, I do see how it might be entertaining.

[

DONT MAKE HIM CONSIDER THIS NEWT]

Ridiculous, but. Fun to watch.

[groupiedrifter]

... Yujin Mikotoba, are you considering watching WWE with me?

[softshoes]

I'll consider, Newt.

[He's gonna do it.]

[groupiedrifter]

I'll get the request in for Hell in a Cell ASAP.

[Newt literally has seen like 3 WWE programs in his whole life on purpose.]

[servesyouwright]

Are you proud of yourself?

[ Honestly, points for creativity, but he's not going to say that. ]

[groupiedrifter]

I'm always proud of myself, I'm a cool dude.

[:)]

Are you denying its purpose as a Leap Ladder?

[servesyouwright]

Yes! Do you see a wrestling ring around here?

[groupiedrifter]

Anywhere's a wrestling ring if you're brave enough.

[servesyouwright]

[ SCRUBS FACE ]

Or stupid enough.

[groupiedrifter]

Is there usually a difference?

[servesyouwright]

Yes! You can be brave and smart.

[groupiedrifter]

What about stupidly brave while being crazy smart?

[servesyouwright]

I guess you'll usually get away with your stupidly brave decisions by being crazy smart.
