*It's been a busy day for Maniac, Mandy, and Greg. They've been out all day seeing the sights of Chicago such as the Chicago Children’s Museum(which Mandy had a difficult time getting Maniac and Greg out of because they were having so much fun), the Art Institute of Chicago, the Chicago Riverwalk, the Navy Pier, the Field Museum of Natural History, and Millennium Park. Their last stop was the 360 Chicago Observation Deck where you can get breathtaking panoramic views of Chicago from 1,000 feet above the famed Magnificent Mile. Every place they visited they were stopped by numerous wrestling fans for autographs and photos from both Maniac and Mandy which surprised Mandy but made Maniac glad. He smiled as he watches her sign autographs and pose for photos, she should be recognized just like the rest. She has been after all on the HWA YouTube channel alot lately keeping fans updated. Little did the three know, Kevin Armstrong has been following them all day. Kevin watched patiently, waiting for an opportunity to talk to Mandy alone and initiate his plan. After a long day of tracking and watching Kevin ends up at the 360 Chicago Observation Deck where he watches the trio enjoy the view and eventually make their way to the bar. Maniac eventually excuses himself to use the restroom and a few minutes after that Greg excuses himself to go talk to a woman that caught his eye. As Mandy sits there alone enjoying her drink Kevin casually walks up to the bar, as if not noticing Mandy. He orders a drink and at the sound of his voice Mandy turns her head, noticing Kevin.*
Mandy: Kevin? What are you doing here?
*Kevin looks over, and acting surprised grabs his drink and heads over to join Mandy.*
Kevin: Mandy? Hey what a surprise. I'm in Chicago talking to some local wrestling promoters and decided to come up here and check out the view and grab a drink. What about you?
Mandy: I'm here with the guys, we've been all over Chicago sight seeing. We've been having lots of fun.
Kevin: Nice, I'm glad you guys are having fun. So how's Maniac been lately? I've been keeping up on recent events in HWA on my phone and it's seems he and Butch are about to butt heads.
*Mandy sighs.*
Mandy: Yeah, while Butch is being pig headed Maniac isn't helping the situation with his explosive temper.
Kevin: Trust me I know what you mean, I'm very familiar with Maniacs temper. But what if I said I had something to help with that?
*Kevin reaches into his pocket, pulling out the clear pill bottle filled with red capsules. He places the bottle on the bar and scoots it towards Mandy.*
Kevin: Those right there will solve that temper problem of his, they were prescribed to Antonio by his psychiatrist but you know Maniac he refuses to take medication. Good news though, those pills dissolve instantly in liquid so he'd never know if you dropped one in his drink. One pill at a time by the way...
*Kevin looks at the time on his phone.*
Kevin: Do with that information and those pills as you will but I gotta run, I've got a few more promoters to talk with. Nice seeing you again Mandy take care.
*Kevin gets up and walks off leaving the pill bottle with Mandy who just stares at it for a moment before taking it and putting it in her purse. Kevin watches from a distance with a smile on his face.*
Kevin: Hook, line, and sinker. Plan B is underway.
*Mandy sits at the bar, taking a drink from her glass every now and then. She looks over and notices that Greg is still talking to that woman and orders another drink for Maniac. Once it's made and the bartender walks away Mandy quickly pulls out the pill bottle and removes one of the pills, dropping it into Maniacs drink and watches as it quickly dissolves. She puts the bottle back in her purse and goes back to her drink like nothing happened. She just wanted Maniac to relax and hoped that this medicine would help, she also hoped that Maniac wouldn't be mad at her deceit. After a few moments Maniac returns, he sits down next to Mandy and smiles.*
Maniac: Thanks for ordering me another drink baby, you read my mind.
*Maniac downs the drink and looks over noticing Greg and chuckles. *
Maniac: I see Greg's making a new friend.
*Maniac turns back towards Mandy. *
Maniac: So where do you want to go next? I was thinking we could...
*Maniac trails off and starts wobbling back and forth like he's drunk before falling backwards off the stool and onto the floor. Mandy quickly gets up and rushes over to Maniac, kneeling down next to him. A large crowd forms around them and Greg pushes his way through until me makes it to Mandy and Maniac.*
Greg: What happened?
Mandy: I don't know, we were sitting here talking and next thing I know he's out.
*Greg looks over and notices the empty glass.*
Greg: How many drinks has he had?
Mandy: Not that many.
*Greg turns back to Maniac, lightly shaking him and smacking his face. After a few moments he opens his eyes and sits up, looking around confused. *
Greg: You ok buddy? Get light headed or something?
*Mandy wraps her arms around him, hugging him deeply.*
Mandy: Don't scare us like that mister.
*Still extremely confused Antonio speaks *
Antonio: Thanks for the concern Miss Banks but if you could stop squeezing my head I'd appreciate it.
*Mandy immediately releases her grip and sits back.*
Mandy: Antonino?
*Antonio shakes his head.*
Antonio: What's going on? Where's Maniac?
*Greg and Mandy exchange a confused looked.*
Greg: What do you mean?
Antonio: He's out cold, I don't feel him around or anything.
*Greg helps Antonio to his feet, holding onto him while Antonio steadied himself.*
Mandy: Let's get you out of here and back to the bus, then we'll figure out what's going on.
*The three make their way through the crowd and towards the exit, all the while Mandy can't help but feel guilty for what just happened. She hopes this is just a side affect of the medicine and that it wears off soon, all the while Kevin watches on in delight that is plan is working so smoothly.*
