BEST IN NEWERA
[ * ]
[You read the last one, right? Where Lana Wu revealed that she's kept Purity out of the country for the last two weeks, ignorant of the goings-on in NEWera. And where Lana showed her an old, weird poster with Purity and RAW on it. And where Lana showed her a doctored Kyle Travis promo. Both of these things got Purity completely furious. So why does Lana want Purity completely furious? Maybe we'll find out now.]

[Lana is waiting on a rooftop in Manhattan. It's night out -- the lights of the city twinkle behind her. She's at least put on a coat since last time we saw her. In her hand is an iPhone.]

[Purity Solanas arrives, walking into frame and glancing out at the city before turning to Lana.]

PURITY: Hey.

LANA: Hello, hello. So, it's like I told you earlier -- the most "impressive" superstar this week gets a shot at Romeo Stylez. And I think you need this, Purity. To beat Kyle Travis, and put your past behind you. To beat Romeo Stylez, and seize your future. And to prove that you are, say it with me:

PURITY: Best in NEWera.

LANA: Best in NEWera. Right. So, I mean, I have a SAY in this, as General Manager. I can't just GIVE you the match with Romeo. That'd be favoritism.

PURITY: Aren't you already kind of showing favoritism by, like, being my friend?

LANA: There's no rule against being friends, Purity. And I believe in what you represent. The first female North American Champion. The first female World Champion. That's the sort of thing I want to see happen in NEWera. That's the sort of, well, new era I want my time as General Manager to help usher in.

PURITY: Right...

LANA: And besides, you don't need favoritism to get ahead. Are you forgetting that this very weekend, you advanced to round two of the Extreme Tournament? You beat Gravedigger, all seven feet of him...

PURITY: Yeah, but James Stall advanced, too.

LANA: So? This means you'll have TWO chances to beat Stall's brains in. Listen. Purity. You can't get distracted here. This month is going to define the entire rest of your career. So you need to focus.

PURITY: ...on what? Vindication? Then why are we up here?

LANA: No, not on Vindication, I mean, not JUST on Vindication, but... being the best.

PURITY: I always focus on being the best. That's, like, that's all I've ever tried to do here.

LANA: Really?

PURITY: What the hell do you mean, "REALLY?"

LANA: Nothing. Nothing. But look. You have inherited... complete chaos. Mac is losing his mind. Not even his Fabulous Disaster buddies want to deal with him. Hell, they barely want to deal with each other. James Stall is having, like, his mid-life crisis, flip-flopping on his approach to life. Tombstone is out of control. Disturbed and Robbie Priest are gonna kill each other. Bombtrack, well...

PURITY: What happened to Bombtrack?

LANA: It's complicated. But the only thing that matters in NEWera right now is having the fans on your side. Whether they cheer you or they hate you... and trust me, girl, they don't hate you. Romeo Stylez knows this. That's why he's such a good World Champ. And that's why you're going to be an even better one. Because all the politics, all the gimmicks and that stuff... at the end of the day, NEWera makes its decisions based on what the fans want to see. Some people, like Mac, do it because they want the fans' money. Some people do it because they want the fans happy--

PURITY: Like you.

LANA: Er, yeah, uh, like me, sure. But that's why it's more important than ever to keep you hot. If we give you the most crowd-pleasing promo, if you put on the most crowd-pleasing match with Kyle Travis -- not hard -- that's when I can turn to the other people on the booking team and go "hey -- when it's time for Romeo's opponent to be revealed, I want 'Train' hitting on that PA."

PURITY: It's called "1 Train."

LANA: It doesn't matter what it's called! It matters that it's YOUR music. Do you understand where I'm coming from?

PURITY: I... I think.

LANA: Okay. Great. Here.

[Lana begins to hand her iPhone over to Purity, who looks down at it.]

LANA: I've written a promo for you. Just give it a few reads, try to memorize what you can... I mean, most of it, if you only get the jist, that's fine, what's important is the emotion of it, you know? Getting across that you really--

PURITY: You wrote me a promo?

LANA: Well, yeah. The fans love it when you, you know, do your rants, like in the London Brawl when you went down the entire rest of the Brawl...

PURITY: Yeah, but I made all that stuff up.

LANA: What do you mean, you made it up?

PURITY: I just... said it. Like, there just happened to be a camera there and I said what I felt.

LANA: Right. Okay. Well, this stuff on the phone is what you feel now.

[Purity makes a face, and then looks back down at the phone. Her thumb moves as she scrolls through some of whatever's written on there.]

PURITY: I'm not saying this.

LANA: Huh?

PURITY: Lana, this is like... this will read like... I might as well read a NEWera shareholders' statement. I can't. People would see right through it.

LANA: Of course not. They love you.

PURITY: They love me because, like, I say what's on my mind, not because I say what people tell me to. I mean, okay, listen, I know it's... weird, like I'm still not used to this whole, um, celebrity, thing. But I know why it's happening. I know what I did that people responded to. I was just me, you know? This, this isn't me. This is you writing a fake me. I'm not gonna do it.

LANA: But it's perfect! It's all the right notes you need to hit so I can--

PURITY: So you can what? Book me against Romeo?

LANA: So I can make your case, to the bookers--

PURITY: Right. Listen, Lana. I appreciate it. I really do. You're a good friend, and while I've been kind of getting my head around, like, main eventing Vindication and all that stuff... that's not the kind of help I need. I don't need to play the promo game to impress the bookers. You know how I can do that? I can go out there and I can beat Kyle Travis half to death, just like I did in every other match we had. We're talking about a guy who yells and moans about how I hit his car... and acts like he didn't get his only, single, solitary pinfall on me by grabbing my head and trying to break it like an egg against a wall. I don't even REMEMBER him pinning me. I mean, true, this time we're not doin' a No Limits match... but that means he doesn't have any walls to smash me into, so there goes the ONLY way he's ever beaten me. And if Fabulous Disaster roll out, well... five on one almost makes it an even fight. So trust me, Lana. I got this.

[Lana looks upset at Purity rejecting the promo script, and takes her iPhone back.]

LANA: ...fine. But I can't--

PURITY: --protect me? Fine. That's cool. I don't need protection.

LANA: I don't think you realize how hard Mac works to sabotage your career, Purity. That banner with RAW? Your match against the White Knights at the Main Event? You need to beat Kyle and you need to beat Romeo, not just to show that you can, but to show him that he can't stop you. At all. That's what's important here.

PURITY: Nah.

LANA: What? "Nah?" What?!

PURITY: Lana... if you want a promo to impress the bookers with... I'll do a promo. Because you're right. Thinkin' about Mac, thinkin' about Kyle, about... Romeo... it's gettin' me kinda steamed. So step back. Turn the camera this way. You'll get a promo.

[The camera turns a bit and refocuses, so that Purity Solanas is centered in the frame. She takes her hood off, revealing her hair tied in a loose bun. Behind her, the city lights of Manhattan frame her.]

[Purity lifts her hands and touches them to her brow. She exhales, and then lowers her hands and begins to speak.]

PURITY: Hey Kyle. I know you watch this stuff. How you doin'? I'm doin' okay, hope your wife's all right, hope your kids are enjoyin' summer break. Speakin' of summer break, y'know -- you're always so full of these great old stories about stuff that happened in other wrestlin' promotions, so indulge me a minute, dude, let me tell you about what I did on my summer vacation. Two weeks ago, Lana Wu got me into this whole... Marina Abramovic thing. She's this, like, artist, and she's developin' a program to, it's like, enhance your consciousness of your own body and what you're doin' with it. It's not a martial art or nothin'. There's a lot of sittin' on big crystals, walkin' through fields blindfolded, a lot of that kinda touchy-feely stuff... designed to make you sensitive, to what your body is doin' and what you're makin' it do. I mean, I ain't so good just 'cause I'm a black belt or just 'cause I can kickbox. Havin' a body ain't just about makin' it a weapon, Kyle. I know you've honed yourself into somethin' fierce. But bein' fierce is one thing. But knowin' your body down to the last, like, molecule... knowin' it like a soldier knows his rifle, disassemblin' it and puttin' it back together with his eyes shut... that's when you're dangerous. Like I'm dangerous.

[Purity smiles, and gives a big, hokey stage wink.]

PURITY: So I took my dangerous self right from that whole European commune thing back to my home state. Hayward, California. Like, I know you're from Canada, so lemme explain the difference -- I'm from the desert down south. I can take the heat in NEWera because I was BORN in the heat. I hear it's freezin' in Calgary -- but the sun'll make you just as tough as the snow. Anyway. Hayward's north. Way north'a where I came up. So it wasn't quite home, but... y'know, close enough, kinda. Cali is Cali, sometimes. Sometimes. So in Hayward, I wrestled in the first round of the Extreme Tournament. The Experts. Sixty-four of the best wrestlers on the planet. And with just my little ol' knee, the knee that I know down to the last molecule, the knee that I know like a soldier knows their rifle, I knocked out this seven-foot monster from Code Red Wrestling. I'm not sayin' I knocked him down and was able to lay down on him for a couple'a seconds. I'm sayin' I knocked him out.

[Purity puts her hands together and then spreads them, as if to say 'case closed' or something.]

PURITY: That was a nice vacation. Goin' back to my home state. Takin' out a giant. That felt like me doin' somethin' for FUN. And I come back to NEWera, to New York, and I see you... flippin' out at me. Sayin' that I have my spot because Fabulous Disaster lets me have it. I'm sorry, I guess you missed how I eliminated four-fifths of your group from the London Brawl. How I've pinned nearly every one of you. Some... some, more than once. Fab Dis, ALLOWING me to keep my spot? Kyle. Honey. No. If anything, I'm the one who ALLOWS you to stay competitive with me. 'Cause when I feel like lettin' the game end, when I let you guys really get under my skin... ask Nightmare how his face is feelin'. You break bodies, end careers, all that, whatever, yawn, okay. I don't make claims like that. I just lose my cool. And Kyle, you don't want me to lose my cool. Because even at my calmest, my most composed, like right now, you're still facing the Best in NEWera.

[Purity stares into the camera for a moment. After an appropriate pause, she breaks contact and the camera zooms back out to show both Purity and Lana.]

PURITY: Like that. There.

[Lana still looks displeased at her script not being followed, like a child who's been passed over for a treat.]

LANA: Fine. I still think you could've--

PURITY: Nah. Lana, I appreciate it. But I gotta go rest. I'm gonna be trainin' hard -- Kyle, and maybe Romeo -- those are my warm-ups for the real deal at Vindication.

LANA: ...okay. Thanks. Good promo, Purity.

PURITY: Thanks. Night, Lana.

[Purity exits. Lana watches her leave. The lights of Manhattan sparkle behind the General Manager as her face settles into a wounded frown. When Purity is gone, Lana speaks to herself in a low voice.]

LANA: I think it's time to shorten that leash a bit.

[Fade out.]
