(Spoilers ahead for those of who that haven't seen FPCPP Clam Chowda yet!)
*We fade into OG-Joshi Coach, Jean Carter sitting in her office late on Sunday night watching a wide screen television. It would appear she ordered the FPCPP Clam Chowda PPV and just finished watching the Majestic Melee match. Luke Kisiera happens to be sitting next to her, fully enjoying the privilege of getting to watch with her, but also showing some interest in the show itself.*
[MJC:] "Awww, Elwood was doing so well. But...he'll get another chance, right? I mean, he got such a reaction from the fans. I don't think anyone else got a bigger reaction all night then him!"
*Luke frowns a bit as he hears Jean say this.*
[Luke:] "Um, Jean. You...you didn't hear, did you?"
[MJC:] "Hear...about what? I was visiting my grandmum all weekend and didn't have a chance to watch any TV until tonight. *her voice starts shaking* Wh...what happened, Luke?"
*Luke sighs*
[Luke:] "Mr. Allen made an announcement before the show. You could probably catch it online."
*Jean turns to her computer and loads the FPCPP Promo website. She finds the recent Elwood one and watches. Luke braces himself, grabbing a tissue and holding it near Jean. At first she's unclear why, but within a few minutes she immediately grabs it and puts it to her eyes. She's doing her best not to break down crying but it's pretty hard for her to stop once Elwood mentions his father's passing.*
[Luke:] "I'm here if you want to talk but if you need some time alon-"
*Luke goes to get up but Jean grabs his hand and holds it there. She squeezes it tightly as Elwood mentions that the Majestic Melee match will be his last in FPCPP. And she starts sobbing when she hears Elwood's words for her. Luke holds her close. She misses some of Elwood's specific words about FPCPP but then as he finishes his overall statement, she buries her head in Luke's shoulder.*
[Luke:] "I don't know him that well but...but he has integrity."
[MJC:] "He...he gave me strength, Luke. When just about everyone, including myself was doubting me, when I was scared, he believed in me. That's why I've been able to be so bold the last few weeks. I saw him stand up to Geese, I saw him stand up for me. And I felt I could do it too."
[Luke:] "He wasn't wrong. And he's not the only one who believes in you."
*Luke uses another tissue to dry a tear dripping down her cheek.*
[MJC:] "But...he left. And it's not his fault, he's doing the right thing and gawd, I gotta send a condolence card to him. But...but he's another one, another special one, that left or got hurt or hospitalized and how many people is that gonna happen to? I didn't think he'd leave and who knows who's next? Or what?"
*Jean hugs Luke tightly and though it looks like he may faint (if from the hug itself!), he fights his hardest to stay conscious so he can hug her back. Meanwhile, in the background, the end of the Tag Title main event is playing as Inza G and LOLCat are in the ring. Luke directs Jean's attention to the screen.*
[Luke:] "There are a lot of ups and downs in this business, it seems. But it's good to see that sometimes the right people can celebrate for the right reasons. That's what we're fighting for, right?"
*Jean smiles as she sees LOLCat and Inza celebrating with their friends in the ring. Luke kisses Jean on the forehead as the scene fades out and the picture switches to a freeze frame of the end of Elwood's RP.*
