The scene opens up at the home of The General as Seth Drabble is seen pushing one of those really old law mowers where the wheels turn the blades inside it to cut the grass. It does not even have a freakin engine! Seth is just dripping with sweat as The General is seen sitting on a lawn chair with an umbrella over the top of him as the sun is shining brightly. He has a glass of ice tea next to him and a bowl of his lunch of champions, biscuit with white gravy. Seth continues pushing the lawn mower as he nears the edge of the garage area. He happens to look over and notices this brand spankin new riding lawn mower, sitting there as if it has never been used. Seth stops where he is standing and quickly turns back to The General.
Seth Drabble- Are you kidding me? You have a BRAND NEW riding lawn mower next to your garage and I am pushing this old piece of junk around. This is my FOURTH TIME OVER THE LAWN!!! I can’t seem to get these stupid blades sharp enough to cut this grass. It is like a damn jungle out here.
The General just sits there and takes another big bite of his biscuit and gravy before getting up out of his lawn chair. He’s wearing sunglasses as he takes them off and places them into his pocket. He walks up to Seth and looks at the riding lawn mower. He turns his head back to Seth and slaps him in the face.
Seth Drabble- Hey! You are going to have to stop doing that!
The General- You act too much like your uncle, boy. He told me to watch after you and train you up, you can’t push an older lawn mower around a yard. How do you expect to push Jack Ryan around Monday night?
Seth Drabble- You forced me to sleep out in the pouring rain last night. I was chased by a pack of coyotes and had to get a rabbis shot earlier this morning because I got bit. Then you had me swing across a pond filled with crocodiles, YOUR OWN CROCODILES might I add.
The General- Let me stop you right there, those were alligators and it is your fault for wearing your baggy pants. Your uncle wanted me to train you and the only way you will get better is if you tough’n your arse up. Right now, you are acting like a little sissy. Brittney Spears is tougher than you and I don’t even like her! I am a 45 year old man…I do not have time for your sissy, pissy temper tantrums. You want to pitch a fit like a 2 year old child; I suggest you waste somebody else’s time. I don’t have time for it!
Seth sighs deeply as he looks around at the yard that seems to not even be getting cut. He throws his hands up in the air and sits down on the sidewalk.
Seth Drabble- I would have to leave wrestling if I quit training with you and I am not prepared to do that. Alright, I will go forward with your training regime. But, I need to take a break right now. I am about to pass out!
Seth pushes the mower up onto the sidewalk beside him and begins to walk inside the house.
The General- Do you think Talon will give you a break Monday night? Do you think you are even worthy of a PWW World Title shot? Your uncle Adam held that title, not once, but he held it TWICE! August 13th, 2001 on Monday Night Gimini, Adam “Raptor” Knite won the PWW World Championship for the first time. Do you think he took breaks? He defeated arguably the greatest wrestler in PWW history, Adultman. Adultman is a 7 time PWW World Champion….SEVEN TIMES! Your uncle Davey Boone, he was a 2 time PWW Cruiserweight Champion. On June 5th, 2003 on Thursday Night Well-Done he was defeated by the very same man that you face this week on Monday Night, Jack “Talon” Ryan and losing his second PWW Cruiserweight Championship. Monday night, you have the opportunity to redeem that loss against Talon. The chance to take advantage and propel yourself into that World Title scene that Adam Knite once ruled; and you want to take a break then you go right ahead and take it.
Seth looks at The General and then walks over to his lawn chair. He picks up the bowl with one more bite of biscuit and gravy and scoops it out and eats it and then downs the glass of tea. The General’s eyes almost bug out of his head as Seth walks back over to The General and stares at him.
Seth Drabble- I am not my uncle Adam or my uncle Dave. I am “The Wolverine” Seth Drabble and you dang right I deserve a shot at the PWW World Title. Monday Night, I will defeat Jack Ryan but I won’t do it for any family member of mine. I am going to do it for myself because this is what I deserve.
The General- That’s the attitude I like to hear!
The General slaps Seth in the face again.
Seth Drabble- What was that for?
The General- That was for eating my last bit of biscuit and gravy!
The General then slaps Seth again in the face.
Seth Drabble- Now why did you give me that one?
The General- You drank the rest of my sweet tea! Come on, I want to show you something quickly.
The both walk into the garage as there are jars all over the place with labels all over them. The General reaches up with a grin on his face and grabs a jar off the shelf. He shows it to Seth as he looks very confused.
Seth Drabble- Why do you have anti-venom for every single poisonous snake that exists?
The General- Oh yeah, the reason I didn’t slap you a third time. You are going to have to go through a pit of poisonous snakes after you finish mowing my lawn.
Seth Drabble- WHAT?!?! I HATE SNAKES OF ALL KINDS!!! I would rather you slap me a third and fourth time instead of doing that, and how do you expect that to prepare me for my match against Ryan?
The General slaps Seth a third and then a fourth time.
Seth Drabble- Thank you, I didn’t want to have to go through that snake pit later on.
The General- Oh no, the third was for hating snakes and the fourth was for you rather having me slap you than have you go through the pit of snakes. Now FINISH MOWING MY LAWN and I will start pulling down these anti-venoms. Looks like you had better fear the bite….the bite of several snakes. HAHAHAHA!
Seth Drabble- NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
The scene fades as Seth begins pushing that old beat up lawn mower across The General’s jungle of a yard.
