[Torture]

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009
- Torture is standing at the island in the middle of his kitchen around 10:00 pm. He came home from a long day of work, and a mild work out, and he's just now reading a note from Tiffany that she must have left from this afternoon. A tear runs down his cheek and drips down onto the note as he sets it back down on the counter space. Torture takes the frying pan that just happened to be sitting near by and throws it across the room. It smashes up against the door in slow-motion as Torture leans up against the counter and slowly slides down to his backside where he sits on the kitchen floor with his head bent forward in his knees. The camera zooms in on a sentence from the note that reads "Going home to the Mid West. Maybe I'll be back someday."

- Torture and Havoc are shown together sitting in Torture's Office. Havoc is explaining some sort of story but we can't hear what's going on with the whole musical voice-over thing going on. Torture sips his Rum out of his cup as Havoc sits in the chair explaining whatever it is to Tort. The two get heated and Torture begins using his hands violently to explain his side of the important story. I mean, it's not every day that Havoc is inside the office or talking with Torture outside of the wrestling arena or ring. Havoc sips the rest of his Rum from his short glass and sets it down on the desk. Havoc runs his hands through his hair and leans back taking a deep breath. Torture sits forward leaning his head on his desk. A quick step forward in the conversation shows Havoc patting Torture on his back and walking towards the front door. Torture follows him out and ends up opening the door for him. Havoc turns around and the two have a very manly bro-hug. Torture closes the door as Havoc leaves his place. Torture leans up against the door as the musical voice over continues.

- Torture takes his World Heavyweight Championship title off the top of his dresser and lays it on top of the clothes already packed inside his bag. He zips the bag up and takes it downstairs. As he walks down the stairs, Drew Rosenhaus is talking on two cell phones, and reading a laptop that lays open on the counter, and Seth Lerch opens the front door all while talking on the cell phone as well. The front door opens slowly and Torture continues walking to the limo that is in the driveway. Seth steps in to the backseat as Torture does with the bag and his trademark sunglasses on, and Drew closes the door, and quickly gets into the limo while the scene transitions to the next as the limo pulls out of the driveway.

- Death is shown in the very large hotel suite that Torture has in Mankato, Minnesota. Death is visibly saddened by something. Perhaps his career is going nowhere south in a hurry like a freight train, or that he hasn't carried his end of the bargain for the Team of Torture, or maybe he's just done with wrestling altogether. Torture seems alright with it as he just listens to Death talk on and on. Again however, the music playing over each scene is hard to understand or comprehend what is actually going on. The next scene we see is Torture still sitting in the same position staring at the wall but Death isn't in the room. Torture slowly looks over at the alarm clock that sits on his nightstand in his hotel suite. It reads 1:38am. The scene transitions to the next.

Sunday Afternoon, October 18th, 2009
- Torture is sitting in a chair talking to a therapist about his entire week. Torture hates it, but most times working in this industry someone to talk to who isn't exactly involved with wrestling, or your life isn't so bad. Torture wearing his long sleeve button down shirt, with a light blue sweater vest on top of that. His dark blue khakis, and pure white Nike's shine bright. Torture sits back in the chair and the music dies down a bit so we could hear his voice clearly.

Torture: Tiffany, my assistant and the sister to my wife who died, who I never said it to her, but I felt some sort of connection with her, but either way she's gone, and she's gone for a long time. Havoc, one of my best friends in Wrestling just retired on me, and Death, who IS my best friend doesn't know what's wrong with his wrestling career and can't seem to grip upon anything inside the ring, and while all of this is going on, I'm supposed to keep track of all the story lines going on inside Wrestling Championship Federation, and stay on top of the game of Wrestling. I don't know how I did it before, or maybe it's speeding up and I can't run that fast, but it just feels like this entire week everything has slipped from me.

Therapist: Well you still have other teammates right? You still have a World Title match you said? There is still some positives going on, correct?

Torture: Yeah, you're right, it's just.. Wrestling isn't supposed to be this hard..

Therapist: Sometimes it gets hard, but you just have to work through it. I remember the days of Wrestling, it was hard back then for some guys. It's just how this life throws us curve balls, fast balls, slow balls, hell, sometimes life doesn't even throw a pitch, but we stand there in that god damn batters box and we wait. It's just how it is.

Torture: Thanks Adam. Heh.

Therapist: Yes?

Torture: Man, I just never thought you'd ever be a therapist. I remember when you wrestled, I remember those days.

Therapist: Well, sometimes you just move forward, you just move on to something else. You know that.

Torture: Thanks Dr. Frazier, maybe I'll see you down the road.

Therapist: I know you will, take care, Torture.

- The song picks up again while Torture is shown walking down the hallway of the office he was in somewhere in Minnesota. Torture enters the rental SUV outside of the office and leaves the parking lot under the bright moon light. The scene transitions to the next.

Monday, October 17th, 2009
- Seth Lerch is behind a curtain and shakes hands with Torture who has the World Title on his shoulder. Seth is mouthing something, and Torture eases him with his charming and yet evil mannerisms. Torture steps from behind the curtain and a room full of photographers, website writers, media, and a few lucky fans all stand up and start snapping pictures and asking questions. Torture smiles and slides his sunglasses off onto the podium that he now stands behind. Seth is smiling from behind the curtain as it looks like Torture is back. A few minutes ahead in time in the scene and we hear Torture over the musical voice over in the background.

Torture: I know this is the first time that Wrestling Championship Federation has ever been to Mankato, Minnesota, and I'm guaranteeing you a great event! Yes, I'm defending my World Heavyweight Championship title against Austin Adams. He's talked his game, he's stepped his stuff up, but tonight on Slam in just seven hours, Austin Adams will be defeated by one of the.. no, by the greatest wrestler to ever compete in WCF. Me. Austin Adams may have a career in the future, hell, he may even be the future but right now I am the one and only, and I'm the true Mr. WCF. I hold this World Heavyweight Championship title because I am the biggest and best superstar to have ever graced the WCF ring and tonight, I'll show you just that. It's been a long week, hell, it's been a crazy few weeks to be honest, but after I defeat Austin Adams tonight, the Superfans are next.

- A few reporters yell out a few questions regarding Slickie T, so Torture quickly replies before he's done.

Torture: As for Allen. He's in the Team of Torture whether he likes it or not, and when he's Tag Team Champions with me, the true Mr. WCF, then he'll know he's in with the best. See you at Slam in a few hours everybody.

- The song finishes off for the last thirty seconds and Torture walks behind the curtain to a very ecstatic Seth Lerch who looks to be making big money on the next few weeks with his showcase of talent, and of course, Torture. The Tort slides his sunglasses on and leaves the building as the scene fades out with the song.
