So how was the tour? You guys play with the Pixies? You're like a superstar now.
Envy Yeah, it's, uh, not really something I can put into words.
Um, Envy... [everyone glares at her] I read your blog.
Envy So, Scott and Ramona, eh?
Envy You guys make a cute couple you know. [Todd scoffs] Suit each other.
[pleasurably]
You're my role model, Envy.
Envy Ramona, I like your outfit. Affordable?
[interrupts]
Envy, I was just gonna say, did you get those jeans in New York?
Envy [stops Julie, not wanting to explode]
I'm talking to Ramona right now.
Envy [sighs] [translating for Todd Ingram]
Basically, you can't win this fight, so you're gonna have to give up on this girl, 'cause Todd's gonna kill you.
[offended]
You used to be so NICE! [charges toward Todd in slow-mo, but Todd psychically throws Scott through a brick wall.]
Uh, Scott, we're gonna go to Pizza Pizza for a slice. Call us when you're done.
Envy Oh, he'll be done. Real soon.
[hears a bass note]
Sounds like someone wants to get...funky.
[After exchanging bass riffs in a bass battle, Todd wins, psychically breaks Scott's Rickenbacker Bass, and pushes him through 3 walls, having him fall onto a coffee table. Scott sees Todd walk in and gets two coffees]
I can read your thoughts. [psychically] Your will is broken. [normally] You're through.
What say we drink to my memory? [offering him a cup of coffee, innocently.] Fair-trade blend with soy milk?
Envy Heh. I'm sorry, but that's pathetic.
Dude, I can see in your mind's eye, that you put half-and-half into one of those coffees in an attempt to make me break Vegan-edge. I'll take the one with soy. [levitates the other cup from Scott's hand and brings it to his own] Thanks, tool. [sips the coffee]
Actually, muchacho, I poured the soy in this cup, but I thought real hard about pouring it in that cup. You know, in my "mind's eye" or whatever. [sips his own coffee]
[eyes return to normal, baffled]
What are you talking about?
You just drank half-and-half, baby.
Envy [gasps]
Oh, my God.
You once were a ve-gone, but now you will be gone.
[incredulous; his last words]
"Ve-gone"?
[Scott headbutts Todd, who bursts into coins, thus earning Scott 3,000 points. Scott holds his forehead and groans in pain. The two Vegan Police Officers exit in slow-mo, high-fiving and exclaiming, "YEAH!" as they do.] [to Envy]
Uh...sorry, I guess.
Envy [in disbelief]
"Sorry"? You just head-butted my boyfriend so hard he burst.
You kicked my heart in the ass, so, I guess we're even...Natalie.
Envy [confused]
"Natalie"? No one calls me that anymore.
Maybe they should. [to Ramona] Let's get out of here. [he and Ramona leave and Scott also holds his back.]
[appearing out of nowhere]
For the record, I am so pissed off for you, right now.
Envy [annoyed]
Shut the [bleep] up, Julie.
[scene cuts to Pizza Pizza]
We're still going to the after-party, right?
I'm not sure there's going to be much of a party. I think a third of the band just went poom.
Yeah, cool bands never go to their own after-parties. Just the desperate people trying to rub elbows with the label guys.
Then why would we--? [realizing] Oh.
[to Neil]
Neil, you down? [to Scott] Scott, you're in, right?
Well...I kind of almost died back there.
I'm not saying I want to go.
I'll do whatever you want to do.
["ABOUT TO E-X-P-L-O-D-E" appears]
We really don't have to go to this thing. It'll probably be a bad scene all around.
No, I'm fine. It's just--
Well...have you ever dated someone that wasn't a total ass?
Well, so far, you're not a total ass.
If it makes you feel better, you're the nicest guy I've dated.
It's what I need right now.
Scott, I don't have all the answers, okay? I'd just like to try and live in the moment if I can.
I'd just like to live. [he and Ramona arrive at The Clash at Demonhead's after-party.]
Look, I know Todd was bad news, but are you saying Envy wasn't? We all have baggage.
Yeah, well, my baggage doesn't try and kill me every five minutes. What did you do to make your ex-boyfriends so insane?
No breakup is painless; somebody always gets hurt. What about you and that girl, Knives? Who broke up with who?
I believe I broke up with her.
And was she cool with that?
Knives is with Young Neil now; she's totally cool with it.
Yeah, she's very mature for her age. We had a very healthy break-up. We're all peaches and gravy.
Me and Kim? I can barely remember. It was high school. She had freckles.
Yeah, it kind of ended. We changed.
That's really the whole story?
Okay, fine. I had to fight a guy to be with her, okay? I fought a crazy, 80-foot-tall purple-suited dude, and I had to fight 96 guys to get to him. He was flying and shooting lightning bolts from his eyes, okay? And I kicked him so hard that he saw the curvature of the Earth. Does that make you feel any better?
Well, now you are being a total ass. Welcome to the club.
I'm sorry; I'm not usually like this.
Hey, don't worry. I don't even know what I'm like anymore.
[rubbing his eyes]
I think this ex-boyfriends thing is messing with my head.
Why do you keep saying that? [gets kicked in the face from behind, slams into the bar counter and falls flat on the floor. He looks up at his attacker.] [stands up, thinking] The girl from earlier?
R Roxy
Oh, boy, does she know me.
[deeply confused]
What is she talking about?
RR Roxy Richter
He really doesn't know?
[realisation dawning]
Wait.
R Roxy
Hmm. [smiles suggestively]
[Inside Scott's head, a lever switches from "NO CLUE" to "GETS IT"] [to Ramona; shocked]
You and her?!
R Roxy
[incensed]
"Just a phase"?
It meant nothing. I didn't think it would count.
R Roxy
[angrily]
"It meant nothing"?!
I was just a little bi-curious.
R Roxy
Well, honey... [cracks knuckles] I'm a little bi-FURIOUS! [performs a slow-mo spinning kick aimed at Scott, but is blocked by Ramona. A pink VS. sign appears between them and Ramona throws Roxy back.]
Do that again, and I will end you!
R Roxy
Back off, has-bian! If Gideon can't have you, no one can! [whips off her belt, which turns into a chain-sword.] The League has spoken!
Well, then Gideon best get his pretentious ass up here, 'cause I'm about to kick yours out of the Great White North! [pulls a massive stone hammer out of her purse]
