On Air

INT. W-KRJ RADIO STATION - THURSDAY EVENING (FOLLOWING WRESTLETALK)

We open up inside of the a hallway outside of glass doors. Through the doors, we see the interior of a radio station. A flashing light flickers from inside, indicating "On Air." Through the doors, we see BUCKY REESE, Holston's talk show analyst, chatting it up with his guests.

Our focus at the moment, however, is on the young woman seated on the floor outside of those glass doors, her knees drawn in as if she is curled in a ball. 

She is Wrestletown Director of Public Relations SAMANTHA PAVAK. She is distraught, shaking almost-- a combination of the news she had just received on air-- on air!-- and the botched job that she was responsible for as a result. Her eyes are fixed on that  "On Air"  sign through the glass doors.

The "On Air" light goes off. The doors to the radio booth open, and out comes a parade of DEAN WILLARD, BOBBY MCVEIGH, CLAYTON COBB, and IAN ECHO.

Dean looks pissed. Of course he looks pissed. He storms out and exits into the hallway, where he spots Samantha on the floor. He directs his attention at her.

DEAN WILLARD

BOBBY MCVEIGH

DEAN WILLARD

Dean turns to Ian. He is still fuming and has anger to go around.

IAN ECHO

DEAN WILLARD

Ian's shoulders droop, as he fades off toward the elevator, leaving the remaining executive committee to ponder in awkwardness under the watchful, angry eyes of Dean Willard.

There is a pause. Clayton  holds his hands up for affect.

Clayton starts doing a victory dance. An elevator door opens and he dances his way into it, leaving Dean with Bobby and Samantha.

Bobby and Sam look at one another, and then to Dean, who looks back at them with disappointment. 

With that, Dean takes the next elevator. 

Bobby has a seat on the floor next to Samantha.

She nods her head.
