Tom Carradine Residence

Scene opens with a shot of the living room of Tom Carradine’s residence. We can see Tom sitting across from his television with a remote in his hand. Playing on the TV is his match from the latest episode of Scion, where he suffered hs first loss in Florida Wrestling Prestige to Adara Phoenix. The expression on his face isa mix of scrutiny and disappointment. Tom turns to face the camera.
Tom: You know, I must’ve watched this match a hundred times to see what went wrong, hoping to find some mistake I made when facing Adara…
Tom turns back to the TV, pressing a button on the remote to replay the final moments of the match. Once the bout is over, he pauses the footage.
Tom: All of this poring over match footage has made me realize something. Kicking myself over a clean loss is a colossal waste of time. She won, I lost, end of story. So, all this means is that my climb to the top of Florida Wrestling Prestige has reached a stumbling block, not something insurmountable.
Tom places the remote on the coffee table before rising to his feet.
Tom: What this means is that I need to stop thinking about the past and look at what’s in front of me. What’s in front of me is some bubble-headed Miami meathead that wants to look past me…
Liz, I’m nobody’s “light work”, so whatever you read that put that idea into that waste of space between your ears is wrong, I didn’t get into this business just to play second fiddle to a walking, talking blow-up doll. So, instead of wasting your time with all of those piss-rag tabloids, get your ass to a gym and put in the work, bacause that’s what I’ve done, ever since I started as a wrestler.
At the next Scion, in Miramar Beach, I’m going to regain my lost momentum at your expense. I could say I’m sorry about this, but why lie?
Scene fades out as Tom exits the room.
