*The scene opens up with Matt Baily is seen standing outside of Andrew Franklin's locker room. Baily looks a little frazzled after a long Television taping and is holding a microphone. After a moment of looking around, he notices the light is on and raises the microphone to speak.*
Matt Baily: Good evening PWA fans! I am here to try to get an exclusive interview with "The Authority" Andrew Franklin just moments after he kicked The Dan in the head.
*Baily knocks on the door of Franklin's locker room but doesn't get an answer. After a moment, he knocks again and it swings open to reveal Andrew Franklin, wearing a leather jacket and jeans and dragging a rolling suitcase behind him. Franklin looks at Bailey with disdain before walking right past him without saying a word. Bailey follows close behind trying to get a comment.*
Matt Baily: Andrew...PWA.com wants to know what are your motives for these attacks? Isn't beating these wrestlers enough.
*Franklin's expression doesn't change as he continues to walk down the hallway.*
Matt Baily: Please man...Just give us any insight on what you are thinking!
*Franklin stops in his tracks and takes a deep breath. The Authority looks irritated but also deep in thought, carefully thinking of how to answer the question that was laid out before him. Franklin slowly turns to face Baily as Matt raises the microphone for him to speak.*
Andrew Franklin: One by One.
Matt Baily: One by one? Does that mean there will be more attacks?
*Franklin stares at the announcer for a second before just turning and walking away. The camera follows him as Franklin just walks out of the building and gets into a limousine that is parked outside. The screen fades to black as the vehicle drives away.*
An Hour Later...
*The next scene opens up inside of a private jet that is owned by Colin Greene. Greene is shown sitting in one of the leather seats wearing a black suit with a white shit underneath. Colin seems to be in the middle of a heated conversation on his cell phone as the audio kicks in.*
Colin Greene: Trust me, I understand where you are coming from. But you can't start punishing him now after 2 other weeks of allowing it. Franklin is one of the only reasons PWA is growing at such a rapid rate! Be real Rep! Don't give me that!
*Greene continues to listen to Rep's point of view as Franklin walks into the plane. Greene looks up and nods at him as Franklin looks around the cabin.*
Colin Greene: You can say whatever you want...but ultimately we did warn you what would happen. You signed the contract and you shook our hands. If you don't want this to happen...You'll have to release him. But if you do that...You better make sure we are going to get our money. We signed a one year contract and we are not going to be bullied by someone with a limited vision of the future. My advice to you? Sit back and enjoy the ride. Have a great day.
*Greene disconnects the call and turns to Franklin.*
Colin Greene: Another busy day huh?
*Franklin smirks as he heads over to the mini bar and pulls out a glass and puts some ice into it.*
Colin Greene: Yeah sure...just help yourself.
*Franklin grabs the bottle of scotch and pours himself a drink. Andrew then turns to his associate and takes a sip before walking over and taking a seat across from Colin.*
Colin Greene: So as you heard...Rep is starting to have a moral dilemma...He loves the higher ratings and the better publicity...But he wants you to stop with the kicks. And your last interview...One by one...Has got him scared.
*Franklin smirks without saying a word.*
Colin Greene: Look, I know that this is something we talked about before you joined the PWA. We both has a game plan and you are following it to a tee. But, maybe its time to take a step back to put some people minds at ease.
Andrew Franklin: I don't give a damn what Rep or anyone wants...
*Colin just looks at Franklin as Andrew takes another sip of his drink.*
Andrew Franklin: I told Rep my plans...I told him what I wanted to accomplish and he never believed I could do it. Now that I've retired 3 people, he is scared. I'm not stopping. Not before I reach the top. I am championship material and I'm not going to stop short before I reach my goal of being the World Heavyweight Champion.
Colin Greene: But, you might needs to slow this down...
Andrew Franklin: One by one...That is my goal...This week I face two men. So maybe I can kill two birds with one stone.
*Franklin gets a sick smile on his face as Colin just sighs and sits back in his leather seat. The camera zooms into Franklin's face as the screen fades to black.*
