The scene opens up to the WWA Headquarters in Los Angeles, California. Inside of the building is your typical not so business day. Office workers getting their work done and secretaries are doing their thing. In one particular office room, there is an important meeting among members of the WWA creative and production staff. Danielle Lopez is front and center going over plans and ideas for the company moving forward.
Danielle: So do we have any ideas among you guys and girls?
Talia Skye: I think beginning this year, we should have the Tag Team equivalent to The Lethal Cup tournament but this will take place from June until Beach Bash in August. What do you think?
Danielle: I love it. We’ll put that into the box and announce it when it is appropriate to do so. Anybody else?
Tyler Brownlee: Do we have an idea on when a second cinematic match is taking place?
Danielle: At this time no, but we are sort of working on it. I’ll text you the details.
Suddenly a Junior member of the production team steps up.
Junior: Um Miss Lopez, ma’am…
Danielle: Yes?
Junior: I just saw on Twitter that a former employee of the company has put out a video promo wanting to come back.
Danielle: It’s not Crystal Alvarez’s ex-wife again, right?
Junior: It's not her. It’s Molly Hatchet.
Upon hearing Molly’s name, Talia spit out her coffee, and while it wasn’t a surprise to a couple of people who know that particular history, the room was still totally silent. Dani noticed and looked at her best friend.
Danielle: Talia are you okay?
Talia Skye: Tell me I did not just hear that fucking name come out of her mouth?
Danielle: No you heard correctly. Is this something I should watch though?
Junior: Yes. I’m not going to get into specifics but she wants a chance. She mentions you directly.
That caught the full undivided attention of the boss lady known as the “Lethal Latina”. Dani goes to watch the video herself. Minutes go by and Dani is done viewing it on YouTube. She proceeds to think and goes to speak her peace.
Danielle: Alright everybody, we are going to take a thirty minute break. Come back and we’ll discuss the rest of this. Talia, Tyler, you two can stay. Everybody else can go.
The rest of the crew leave, leaving just Tyler Brownlee and Talia Skye alone with the boss lady.
Tyler Brownlee: So boss, what are you going to do about this? Do you have any idea what you will say or what decision you will make?
Talia Skye: I don’t think I need to reiterate my feelings. They’re quite known. Personally I wouldn’t let her back in at all. She fucked up. I was there for all of this.
Danielle: I know Talia, I haven’t forgotten about it all. However I will need some help producing this. I’m going to have to go into “Lethal Latina” mode, boss lady edition. It’s been a looooooong time since I have done one of these.
Talia Skye: Yessss. I always loved that mode. You get a little fiery. My bestie does not mince words.
Danielle: No I do not. Tyler do you have the cam on you?
Tyler Brownlee: I don’t…
Right then and there, Talia hands Tyler her iPhone.
Talia Skye: Use it. I’ll send it to Dani and she can send it out through the Twitter feed.
Tyler Brownlee: Alright. Let’s get it rolling then.
Talia Skye: You’re only operating it for the video and nothing else. I know your reputation.
Tyler Brownlee: What the fuck!? They’re only rumors. I'm not Shannon Taint for fuck's sake.
Danielle: Hey, can you film the fucking thing already? We have a meeting to complete then get ready for tomorrow’s show as well as air Desiree’s show.
Tyler Brownlee: Alright I got you.
Tyler begins filming. Talia touched up on her bestie’s makeup before beginning the countdown. As it reaches zero, Danielle begins to speak.
Danielle: Molly Hatchet. I’m going to be honest, you’re one of the last people I expected to hear from but I’ve also heard from my protégés ex-wife recently as well when it comes to employment, but anyways...
The boss lady, struggling to move due to recent hip surgery, pauses for a moment before continuing.
Danielle: I watched the video. I watched you explain your fall from grace, explaining why things went down the way they did at the end of your tenure in this company, and how you want another chance here to see whether you’ll have a redemption story for the ages, or sink down further into the depths of despair...
Danielle thinks for a moment.
Danielle: Before I get to the answer, you’re not lying when you say that leaving here wasn’t your choice and that the situation was your fault. Month after month dealing with various antics, conflicts with fellow roster members, dealing with ridiculous requests and complaining about others, you can see how all of this came to a head. People I talk to on a regular basis wanted me to cut you loose much sooner but I was trying to see if it would end up working itself out. Being extremely patient can be a bad trait, and I admittedly have that. Sadly things didn’t work itself out, but the straw that broke the camel's back was you and an associate of yours went completely insane over alleged bio-hazard concerns when there was no such thing that occurred at Madison Square Garden that night. The Kelli Saint and Athena thing was accused of having gas and poison in the arena when there was none at all. What Saint and Athena did in their segments leading up to their Television Championship encounter at Eve of Destruction 2020 was for entertainment purposes only and we ended up not doing those type of segments anymore after that event. I can’t believe I just had to put out that disclaimer, but alas I did. Around that same time, there were people trying to cause a rift between Talia Skye and myself.
It was right then and there that Danielle angrily crumpled up a piece of paper and threw it in the trash.
Danielle: The last part is a big no-no for me. Nobody and I mean NOBODY says a thing about Talia Skye and try to cause a rift between the two of us. Her and I have a very close bond that cannot be broken by anybody, and honestly there was no reason to try and cause an issue between us because as I say over and over again ad nauseam; whether you are a friend, a family member or somebody wanting a chance, I am fair to every single person regardless of standing. Everybody earns their keep here, nothing is handed to a soul in this company. So with no other options, I had to cut you loose and let you spread wings and fly away. See whether perhaps you just needed a change of scenery. This company ended up fine but you… you were like a bird that planted face first into a glass window and got hurt doing so.
Danielle puts her hand over her eyes mimicking that she saw a car crash. After the over-the-top antics, she continues on with her words.
Danielle: But that’s really the gist here, we don’t need to go into it any further since everybody has a clue as to what exactly happened. The question that is posed out of this; is Molly O’Hatherine allowed back into the Women’s Wrestling Alliance? After everything that has happened, Molly you are wondering whether you are allowed to come back to my promotion to make things right, or if I would say thanks but no thanks?
She sits in her chair, pondering the scenarios she just asked.
Danielle: As much as I do appreciate and admire a redemption story, and it is quite commendable that you seem genuine and are truly remorseful about your past actions here and elsewhere, I have to inform you that you will not be brought back to the company. There are no hard feelings whatsoever but it's just not in the cards. I do wish you well in your future endeavors and I pray that from here on out that you continue to get your mind, your body and your health on track to an overall better life specifically for yourself.
As Dani uttered the final words, Tyler finished up with the recording and handed the phone back to Talia.
Danielle: So how was it?
Talia Skye: Professional and solid. Far more nice than I would have been.
Tyler Brownlee: I see no issues with this.
Danielle Lopez: Okay. Once I get the video, I'll get it uploaded and then we'll call everybody back here to resume this meeting.
From there, the scene fades to black.
