No sooner does Scoops finish off Charlie does he wheel about to see Madison Dyson! Scoops jerks back a hand to strike Madison, but Madison takes a step back into a defensive posture and calls out for him to STOP!

STOP! Hold up, Scoops! Hear me out! I'm actualy here to help you! 

Scoops does stop with some bemusement and seems to pause a bit to listen to what Madison has to say. 

Okay. So let's look at your situation here logically. I realize you may be a couple thousand chair shots to the skull past logic, but just try for Maddy, eh?

So, here's your sitch. You have to defend your XTreme championship in every single match that you're in, correct? And are you also not in the Ides of March tournmament, a tournament with multiple rounds and only one eventual winner? And is it not also true that your first round match is against none other than last year's tournament winner, Kieran King?

Are you pickin' up what I'm puttin' down, Scoops? 

Look crusty, your chance of coming out of that tournament with your XTreme championship around your waist is, let's face it, nada. 

But it doesn't have to be that way! Because here's the deal I'm offering! You can let me win the Xtreme championship from you right now, and I can be like...like....well, like a safety deposit box for your title! Yeah! I can hold the title for you throughout the tournament, and when you eventually lose, and you WILL lose, you can face me for the title back?

I mean, it's better odds for you than trying to grind through an entire tournament with the championship, right? Just facing one little ol' Maddy instead an entire murderer's row of tournament competitors? 

Think it over, Scoops. For like, ya know, the next three seconds. 

Madison winces, because she really doesn't want to touch Scoops, but eventually sucks it up and plants a finger on his chest. A referee sidles up, because unlike Charlie Madison is smart enough to bring a ref, and starts making the count on what is apparently being considered a pin.
