There’s a knock on the door.

MARCIA
Who is it?

The door opens and Falcon enters.

FALCON
Good evening, ladies.

MARCIA
You didn’t even wait for the password. How rude.

FALCON
Stacy, we need to talk.

STACY
Is there a problem?

FALCON
It’s about your challenge request form.

STACY
What about it?

FALCON
It’s been denied.

STACY
What?

FALCON
Your request to fight Slater has been denied.

STACY
Denied?! Why?

FALCON
Another form came in before yours was submitted. It was a request to fight you.

STACY
From who?

FALCON
Dale Hunt.

Stacy balls her fists and shuts her eyes. She shivers with anger, barely containing it. Marcia looks on, amused.

FALCON
I came here to make sure that you were aware of the situation.

STACY
Dale...that’s idiot!!

Stacy blows by Falcon and leaves the room.
