As the scene opens, we can automatically hear the sound of coins hitting metal, like it's raining them. Sirens and horns going off as the cheers of many ring out. Now with the camera firmly focused on the setting, we can see this is the Ameristar Casino ground floor. As the camera pans through the madness of people gambling and cigarette smoke blowing in the wind...we stop at a Blackjack table.
At the table is a dishevled looking Nick Pickles, who is wearing his money suit, but it's not complete. The bow tie is undone, his shirt isnt tucked in. There is a few people at the table, including a big guy who's wearing a cowboy hat and chewing on a straw.
As the blackjack dealer deals the cards out, Nick looks at his and see's he has 10 and 6. Nick looks his cards up and makes a decision.
Nick: Hit me
The dealer does and the card is a 6, pushing him over at 22. Nick angrly pounds the table and waves it off. The guy next to him, the cowboy also hits and gets a five, then a two, putting him at blackjack. He bellows out a "YEE-Hah".
Nick just tweeks his head and gives an "Are you serious" look at this guy as he's in so much joy over this win. Nick looks at Bubba who shakes his head.
Nick: (To Bubba)...Look at this, this guy is so happy he won a few bucks. This dumb fat cowboy redneck..
The guy heard Nick say this and as he collects his chips from the dealer, he has something to retort.
Cowboy: Hey, hey, dont be upset that you didnt win man.
Nick: Im sorry...what? What did you say? (Moving right up on the guy)...let me tell you something Hog boy, i dont need to win at this game. I can buy this table, buy this casino and certainly can buy your stupid self....but i would just see that as a bad investment. So this is what i am going to do to you instead Hoss-
Nick then grabs the drink the cowboy was having and plants it right on this face, embarassing the guy as people giggle and gasp at the tables. Nick then takes his hat and places a couple hundred in his pocket as he walks off.
Nick begins walking through the casino floor, wearing the cowboy hat and talking to Bubba
Nick: That guy, what a douche bag. I love coming to this place before a big match. It make me feel so much better watching these people scramble and just pour money into this place. That never ending dream....the one i live.
Bubba: Yeah, and before that one hand at Blackjack, you were on a roll.
Nick: I got everything going for me, always did. But there's just one more thing i want going for me, and that's the TV title. Now i know...what your going to say, as said before...i am below that title..yes i know, but it's giving me an oppurtunity to do something i have long waited to do. That is put that miserable pain in my ass Jay T Nitro on the shelf once and for all, part him with a nice retirement gift.
Nick takes the cowboy hat off and places it on some old women, walking by with her walker. She doesnt even know he did that.
Nick: But in order to do that, i must beat the almighty Kaleb Shadix. This guy, such a tough guy eh?....i mean do you see the way he uses those expletives, that's enough to scare anyone.
Bubba has a chuckle at that one.
Nick: But dont get me wrong, the guy has skill. I mean he did beat me at Spring Breakage, but everything comes around full circle and i'll have the last laugh when it really counts. Kaleb seems to be undermining me, saying im nothing and underserving, i beat nobodies.....which doesnt surprise me cause i dont see Shadix as the guy of kind to read the history books let alone be able to. Name alot of the top guys, and i have beaten one time or another, Jay T Nitro, Tito Capaci, Slayer, Mr.Showtime and so on. My career is something only most can dream of. I have won countless world titles...there isnt anything for me to prove anyways.
Nick takes a quarter out of his top pocket and places it into a nearby slot machine as he continues his speech
Nick: See you desperately want that title, you need that title so you can have some acclaim in this fed as some sort of champion. Me, i just want it for a higher goal....in fact, if you need it so bad, i'll give it back you after i accomplish my goal at SuperMania III.
Bubba: Yeah....SuperMania III is going to be a good day for us.
Nick: So true my dubious friend.....But for the hell of it, even though you aint of Jay T Nitro or Tito Capaci yet, im going to add you to that long list of people who have paid the piper to me one way or another. I'll stop your rising phenominal rookie star dead in it's tracks....and it's going to make it so much better since he blindly thinks so lowly of me. That's arrogance for ya, when you cant accept the truth that perhaps you got lucky once with me. See...it might always be a good day for Kaleb, but this road for you is about to get dark and stormy. But hey, dont listen to me....you'll find out when you wake up after the show and have no Television title with you and im on my way to SuperMania III.
Nick pulls the lever down and as the slot goes off, it lands on three blue 7's across and the siren goes off as the jackpot was hit. The coins are flying down, hitting the silver pan.
Nick: See, i rarely lose my friend....and this Thursday will be no different. King Cobra saw this and bowed out of the match, which i dont necessarily blame him. He'll get to this level soon enough, but for now...he was smart enough to realize the truth unlike you. Your looking at your new Television Champion....nnnnyahahahaha.
Nick turns to Bubba and tells him to call the driver to bring the limo around. As they start to walk away, Bubba asks Nick if he wants to collect his winnings.
Nick: I dont need that....besides i got better winnning to go collect. C'mon, let's get out of here.
They walk off in the distance from the noise and commotion of the Casino in the background. We see them reach the doors and walk out in the sunny day as the limo pulls up. And at the point, the doors shut.
We are left to ponder if what Nick has said and alluded to willl come true and if SuperMania III will be his greatest achievement. With these two ego's of cockiness and arrogance colliding, who knows whats going to happen. A promo shot for the Television Title match between Kaleb Shadix and Nick Pickles is shown as the scene fades out.
