Jack is seen at his home. He is at the dining room table and appears to be talking to himself. His mother is walking down the stairs as she spots him.
Jack: Would you care for some more ice tea? Or maybe some coffee? Let me get that for you. (as he pours some ice tea in a glass across from him. )
Jack: So tell me more about yourself, where did you grow up?
Ugh thats stupid, im stupid, (he slams his hand against the table) This isnt gonna work! Think Jack, think!
His mom steps into the room “Mijo, (means son in spanish) what are you doing? Have you lost your mind?
Jack: Yeah I think I have.
Mom: You’re talking to yourself, what is going on?
Jack: Im kinda ashamed to say it.
Mom: Just tell me (she says smilingA)
Jack: I was practicing for a date.
Mom: you’ve been on plenty of dates, since when did you need to practice? (laughing)
Jack: Shes different. I want this to go perfect.
Mom: Will I get to meet her?
Jack: I want to invite her out to the ranch for the weekend once we get back from Tokyo.
Mom: oh shes a wrestler?
Jack: Yeah.
Mom: not many female wrestlers in SFT right now, is it Cassandra or Candace?
Jack: Candace.
Mom: you are aiming high.
Jack: Yeah maybe too high. I dont know if she sees me yet, like really sees me sees me.
Mom: Mijo if she has half a brain in her head she will recognize just how special you are.
Jack: Mom you have to say that you are my mom, every mom thinks their son is “special”.
Mom: (laughing) true but you my son, you are something in a league of your own. Anyone who knows you will love you. And I feel sorry for her, I really do.
Jack: Why is that?
Mom: If she spends one day with you and just one day she will fall head over heels in love with you.
Jack: (smiles) I hope so.
Mom: I’ve seen her, seen how she looks and speaks. She is like the wind, strong and fast but she lacks direction, that you can give her, give her some peace inbetween the storms. Your stepfather was a lot like that.
Jack: was he?
Mom: He always had a storm brewing within him. I thought I could help settle him down and for a while I did. But I couldnt save him from himself. Maybe you could do something for Candace. Lend her a little bit of that inner peace in you. But dont try to change her, just let her know that you’ll be there for her.
Jack: I’ll try. I’m gonna ask her when we are in Tokyo.
Mom: Good and son I think she does like you but its obvious shes never been with someone like you. If she does agree, theres the spare bedroom she can take upstairs. (she smiles at him and winks)
(she retreats back upstairs)
Jack: I am so nervous and I havent really given Robert Saints a thought and I know he has to be angry with me, I gotta get my head back into the game before its too late.
