*We open inside a cell, Maniac sits alone on a bench his hands and ankles are shackled together and he's still busted up from the events of Havoc. Even though he was cleaned up once brought into the jail, his injures are still evident. He just sits there for a moment, a smile on his face as he thinks back to what transpired between he and Matt Miller. He looks over and notices the camera mounted high on the wall and lifts a hand as high as he can and waves at the camera, noticing the camera turn and focus on him he laughs and begins to speak.*
Maniac: What a night! Matthew you didn't disappoint, that was so much fun! My God, the brutal violence, the blood, the close calls! By the way, I see you Spider-Man.
*Maniac points and throws his head back laughing for a few moments before continuing.*
Maniac: It felt good, didn't it Matt? To let loose like that and just tear at me like a wild animal. I know it did Matt, I know you enjoyed it and THAT'S what I've been trying to show you. You embraced your inner darkness and for the first time I seen the REAL Matt Miller, and you know what? I want more...that's right, and you know what I don't want this to end. We've only just begun young Matthew, Mandy is on her way to bail me out and I know you'll be getting out to eventually so we can continue our fun at the next Havoc. Or before, HAHA! Whenever, wherever you and me will do this until there is nothing left of either of us! HAHAHAHAHA!!! Matt, I'll see YOU in FUKIN' HELL!!!!
*Maniac laughs hysterically, throwing his head back and kicking his feet best he can. After a few minutes we can hear a door open and then the cell door open and a large group of officers come in and restrain Maniac as the feed cuts out.*
--------------------------------------
A few hours later(off camera)
*The lobby of the Chicago Police department is bustling with activity, officers are coming in with cuffed criminals and others are going out to hit the streets for patrol. The doors open once again and in walks Mandy and Greg, they head straight to the front desk to talk to the officer sitting behind it.*
Mandy: Excuse me sir, we're here to bail out Maniac.
*The officer gives Mandy a look before typing on his computer. After a few minutes of typing the officer stops, reading the screen before turning back to Mandy.*
Officer: Follow me please.
*The officer stands and heads towards the back of the station, Mandy and Greg follow and once they reach a solid oak door the officer stops, turning to Mandy and Greg.*
Officer: He's in here, are you sure you want to bail him out?
Mandy: Yes, he's contractually obligated to make appearances and compete for the HWA. He can't do that locked up can he?
*The officer nods, turning back to the door and removing a keyring from his belt. Greg chuckles and then speaks.*
Greg: You keep all the celebrities who get arrested in Chicago back here?
*The officer unlocks the door and before opening it answers Greg.*
Officer: No, it's for protection.
Mandy: Yeah, he's not very popular here in Chicago.
*The officer scoffs, opening the door.*
Officer: Not for him, for the other inmates and the officers.
*The officer walks in and before following Mandy and Greg exchange a look of shock. They soon follow the officer and they see Maniac sitting inside a cell, on a bench shackled down so he can't move. Maniac has a snarl on his face until he looks up and sees Mandy and Greg. He smiles, changing his demeanour.*
Maniac: Hey Mandy bear, hey Greg.
*Mandy crosses her arms.*
Mandy: Don't you Mandy bear me, what the hell were you thinking when you pulled that stunt with the bus! You could've killed someone!
*Maniac drops the smile, seeing Mandy is obviously aggravated.*
Maniac: I don't know Mandy, what do you think Matt was thinking when he jumped me and started this whole thing? You and Greg were there, what do you think his motivation was?
*Mandy stands there for a moment thinking, after a moment she uncrosses her arms and let's out a sigh.*
Mandy: All right officer, let him out.
*The smile returns to Maniacs face and Mandy can't help but smile back at him. The officer unlocks the cell door and then goes in, unlocking the shackles and Maniac stands. He stretches before rubbing each wrist then walks out of the cell, taking Mandy in a warm embrace and the two kiss.*
Mandy: Come on baby, let's get out of here.
*Maniac and Mandy take each other's hands and with Greg following them they leave together. Once Maniac is fully released and his possessions returned the trio head outside to hail a cab. As they wait Greg turns to Maniac.*
Greg: So how long do you think it'll take for them to fix the bus after it's towed to the shop?
Maniac: Who knows, maybe a month tops. They said the damage wasn't as bad as it looked so maybe less.
*Mandy pulls out her phone, loading the HWA YouTube channel and hands it to Maniac.*
Mandy: You need to watch that, Butch came to the ring after Havoc and addressed what happened.
*Maniac plays the video and watches as Butch rages in the ring, Maniac watches blank faced and when it's over Maniac laughs, handing Mandy her phone and then looks over at Greg*
Maniac: Set me up Greg.
*Greg nods and gets his camera ready, focusing on Maniac he counts down and gives the signal.*
--------------------------------------
On camera
Maniac: Wow! What a night huh? First off I'd like to welcome back my old friend Bryan Deas, good to see you again Deas I heard you made quite the splash at Havoc. You know, I too am having issues with the new blood of HWA. They lack respect, I mean you gotta give it to them they have kept HWA going these past years HOWEVER that seems to have given them some sense of entitlement. Like they're to good to take advice or hear what knowledge someone could pass onto them, oh no they already know it all and don't need us Deas. I don't know about you but for me THAT just can't be tolerated. So Deas, you ever need a hand or someone to watch your back call me. And before you ask no, I'm not looking to be a tag team again. I'm a solo act these days but I don't object to helping out a friend to accomplish a common goal.
*Maniac laughs and continues.*
Maniac: Do you see it now Matt? What I've bee talking about? You're on the shit list, like I said because you didn't follow Butch's plan. Isn't that funny how that works? When you went with his plans everything was all hunky dory, and now that you're doing things your way? Now you're the enemy Matt, now to Butch and Wisdom you're no better than myself, or anyone else who participated in tonight's chaos. So where do you go from here Matt? Are you going to stay on your current path and meet me again for another round at Havoc, or are you going to retreat back under the protective skirt of Butch and Wisdom?
*Maniac smiles, revealing his still blood stained teeth.*
Maniac: Really Butch? You going to fire me? Is that how the big bad Butch Parker handles his problems? By just firing them? Haha! You're pathetic Butch! Wisdoms got your fukin balls in a jar in her purse because she obviously is making all the decisions. You can't threaten me you Scottish peace of shit! Go ahead, fire me so I can sue for breach of contract and end up OWNING not only HWA but both yours and Wisdoms ass. And if not, then I'll just keep showing up and wreaking havoc...pun not intended as I always do. You know you can't keep me out Butch, I'll show up week in and week out doing what I do best...chaos. OR, we can keep on as usual. And whatever "punishment" you think you have for me next week is NOTHING in comparison to what I'm going to do to Matt. You thought the bus was bad dikhead? Just...you...FUKING...wait. Oh, and be careful what you wish for Butch because you may just end up on that cold slab whether you like it or not.
*Maniac laughs and walks off as the scene fades to black.*
