INT. THE UNIVERSAL CROWN - LOBBY – NIGHT

It's intermission and the lobby is crowded.

Byron's showing COREY GRAVES, anchorman for Talking Smack, his glowing unicorn horn headband. Corey pretends to care, then when Byron isn't looking he rolls his eyes and walks away.

Charly notices Kurt talking on the phone. It doesn't look good. She heads over.

KURT

Okay, sir. No, I understand. Goodbye.

CHARLY

Kurt, is everything okay?

KURT

That was Mr. McMahon. He wanted to inform me that Raw Talk has been canceled. I'm going to head home. Sorry, Charly.

INT. THE UNIVERSAL CROWN - BATHROOM – NIGHT

At the sink, Charly cleans up her face. She stares at herself in the mirror. What now?

The door opens and Renee's reflection appears in the mirror.

CHARLY

How did you do it?

RENEE

I'm sorry?

CHARLY

I have followed your career for years, and yet I can never measure up to you.

RENEE

This business is tough, but in order to succeed you've got to learn not to keep yourself in a box.

She touches up her makeup in the mirror.

Charly finally turns away from the mirror, letting Renee's words soak in.

INT. UNIVERSAL CROWN - LOBBY – NIGHT

Charly leaves the bathroom and bumps into someone leaving the mens' room.

DAWSON

Excuse me, lady.

Dawson tips his baseball cap, displaying his gloves, and heads for the grand staircase.

Charly is frozen. She snaps out of it and finds her phone in her purse. Dials 9-1-1.

CHARLY

There's a robbery about to be a progress at the Unv--

A "Just Fists" glove snatches her phone and ends the call.

DAWSON

Now why'd you have to do that?

INT. UNIVERSAL CROWN – STORAGE CLOSET – CONTINUOUS

Charly struggles against Dawson as he puts her in the storage closet and locks her inside.

She wiggles the handle, but it won't budge. She pounds and kicks at the door.

CHARLY

Someone help. Please!

She searches around the room for something, anything to help her get out. Nothing but cleaning supplies and toiletries. She's trapped.
