Later That Week...
Noko
So, how'd the game go?
Keo
We lost. But the other team voted me MVP. I even got this t-shirt!
Noko
Swanky.
Shop
That should be mine! I DOMINATED that game.
Noko
Again, our team lost.
Keo
Yeah, turns out I'm a really hard worker on defense, even though I felt useless the whole time.
Noko
So are you and Kosumi, uh... dating again?
Keo
I...
don't know. I think it's just a casual thing, like it was. We don't
hang out for long, we just have some... fun. I did lose my, uh... card,
though.
Shop
Like at his house?
An odd silence.
Keo
Not that card.
Shop
OH SHI-
Noko
Daaaamn. Good for you, right?
Keo
(Laughing.) I think so, yeah. Kinda sore today, though.
Shop
(Clearly uncomfortable.) ...aaaaanyway. We did NOT win the tournament, but we did get third place!
Gorey
Thanks to me, obviously-
Harold
Shut up, Gorey! It was a TEAM EFFORT-
Gorey
I'm still ON the team-
Two boys start scuffling and punching each other on the floor.
Shop
Break it up, break it up! Keo, help me get these bozos out of my room.
Keo
Yeah, alright.
Gorey
YOU HAVEN'T HEARD THE LAST OF ME! I WON'T BE CONTAINED!!
The two boys keep shouting as they're escorted out. Gorey is laughing his ass off as he's dragged away.
Noko
We should probably call it here.
Keo
How about another Twisted Tale?
Noko
I'm not feeling it. Maybe next time.
Shop
Don't you think the audience might wanna know how the matches went, or what the final score was-
Keo
Eh, probably not. They can check the board.
