We open up to Slim out in the backyard with Karine standing over the grill as she flips over some chicken thighs.
Karine:
I told you I was going to spoil you and mom this time. Plus I know you rule with steaks but chicken is where I shine. Plus I want to pump you up with some protein. You find out who you facing off against yet?
Slim pulls out his phone and takes a look at it as he starts scrolling. And scrolls some more. And then scrolls a little more.
Karine:
You really can’t find it?
Slim:
Nah I’m just messing with you. Its Jackson Cole. Some new kid on the block that kind of crashed and burned in his last match. Cost him that win and now he gets to face off against me. Talk about luck huh.
Karine:
Oh yeah. I mean a new guy coming off a loss facing off against a true ring vet that is getting his footing back in the ring and coming off a loss himself. I would be over the hill thrilled...
Slim:
Over the hill? Come on is that an old joke?
Karine:
No no… not this time no. Oh this smells so good.
The two of them get a whiff of it.
Slim:
What did you put on those… they do smell real good.
Karine:
I can’t tell you that. That’s the chef secret. You know all about those. You don’t tell me what you put on the steaks.
Slim:
Touche.
The two of them keep chit chatting as Jessica emerges from the house and walks up behind them.
Jessica:
So what are you two talking about here.
Slim:
Well about Jackson Cole, her chicken thighs, and I dunno what else was it?
Karine:
Dad wants to race me.
Jessica:
What? Oh no. Come on now. You know we don’t race after that last time we raced from the arena all those years ago. Besides… that BMW you got… well… I’m sure we got something that could beat that.
Karine:
Oh really? Care to place a wager on that?
Jessica:
Oh no not me. I don’t race anymore. I’m retired from all of that although… I think that is one thing I think I might try again at least once. But not my old Mustang. Oh no I have to use one of the other cars.
Slim:
Wait wait.. what I said was… you got a nice fast car but I’m sure the latest one we got is faster. We’re just waiting for it to be delivered.
Jessica:
Its coming today?
Slim:
Yes finally.
Jessica:
FINALLY!
Karine:
So you going to race me in a mystery car that I don’t know about?
Jessica:
Sure he will. Won’t you?
Slim:
Well… it would be nice to hand Karine her first loss…
Karine:
Oh har har. Speaking of which the food is ready. Get your plates.
Karine loads up the plates with the thighs as they head inside and get the sides that were already prepared. They head back out and eat out under the umbrella.
Slim:
So yeah about the last show…
Jessica:
Babe its fine. We know you gave it your all and it just came up short. Its okay. We understand and we won’t hold it against you. But we do want you to step up this next match. Do NOT let some rookie use you as some stepping stone. Not as just another guy. You gotta show him who the hell you are. Oh damn Karine… these thighs are amazing.
Karine:
Thanks mom. I tried my best. I wanted you two to really enjoy this.
Slim:
Well I can tell you… these are amazing. Thanks baby girl. It’ll make me beating you feel a little bad.
Karine:
You’re not going to win this one. You’ll beat Jackson Cole but not me.
Jessica:
We did splurge quite a bit on this one. This is a special one. I foresee your dad winning two times this week.
Slim:
I got the text… its here in the front.
They finish eating as they clean themselves up and head through the house to go to the front door as the car is being unloaded and Karine’s eyes go wide.
Karine:
YOU GOT A FREAKIN BUGATTI! That’s not fair!
Slim and Jessica smile at each other before turning to their daughter.
Jessica:
Like I said… two wins.
Slim:
So baby girl… ready to lose?
Karine:
You know what… let’s go. Let’s do this. Let’s do this.
Karine gets in her BMW M8 Competition as Slim and Jessica get in their new 2024 Bugatti Chiron. They speed off as the scene fades to black.
Karine:
