I would like to visit a patient just brought in, Andrienne Killionoff.
I'm sorry, Mr...
Cool. Joe Cool.
Dispite the seriousness of the situation, Josh has to stifle a laugh at what he thinks is just a lame James Bond impression. Joe flashes him a stern look and turns back to the doctor.
Well, Mr. Cool, Ms. Killinoff cannot have visitors at this time, we still need to run the usual tests, she has suffered another concussion, and of course lacerations from when she was hit with that belt. We will come back and tell you..
Like hell you'll tell me anything, I'm seeing her now!
Joe starts to move but the doctor has an orderly make him sit down. This orderly is twice Joe's size and Joe doesn't want to cause any problems so he doesn't resist.
We cannot let you visit her, but we will tell you when we are finished. She should be alone right now. I will be forced to call the authorities if you continue to force.
Joe stands up, the orderly turns his way as if to force him back down, but he straightens his jacket and steps outside the emergency doors, Josh right behind him.
Fucking quack, dude. You should be able to see her.
Tell me about it. You got your camera with you?
Yes, but I don't think that's going to help..
Josh I'm going to film a small promo to Enigma. He is my opponent this week.
But what about Angel?
I can't help her if that doctor calls the authorities and I'm forced to spend a night in jail, can I?
Josh turns on the camera and begins filming and Joe prepares to speak.
Well, a lot has happened over the past couple of weeks. Phoenix has taken it upon her hands to try and take the very company that I worked to create away from me. This is MY company, Phoenix, you got that? You can't have it, and you won't when I'm finished with you. You tried to screw Angel out of her Television title, and it didn't work. She is STILL TV Champ. She didn't win, but she didn't lose. That's all that matters. The fact that you had to be a bitch about it and lay her out with the belt doesn't help matters. You may think that every guy wants you, but Phoenix, I don't think I could ever be with a woman whose balls are bigger than mine. I only have eyes for Angel, and laying her out and busting her open PISSES ME OFF! So I'll take out your boy Enigma, just like I did your boy Rocket, and once I make him tap like the bitch he is, I'll be coming to Hostile Takeover to fight you, in a one on one matchup, for complete control. And trust me, you don't want that. You can't hang with Joe Cool!
Speaking of Enigma, what about him? Nothing, that's what. Enigma is nothing. He's shit! He's a former World Champ, and he has beaten me before. But this time he's all alone, and he has to make me tap out. Impossible. Oh you may say, "C4 did it", but that was a different time, under different circumstances. I had nothing to lose with C4. I have everything to lose and I'm not going to lose it. You're just a small obstacle in my way. I'll solve that Ultimate Riddle of yours quicker than a 4-piece puzzle, then I'll lock on the Cool Crunch and you'll tap like so many before you. But I'm not telling you anything, that you don't already know.
After his short promo, Joe sees the same orderly waiting at the doors.
Mr. Cool...you can visit her now.
Ok then.
And I'm sorry to have used force, but it is my job.
Think nothing of it, I understand.
Joe goes back inside and Josh says he'll wait outside the room and Joe goes inside to see Angel, not sitting up but looking awake.
Hey there, beautiful.
Angel looks up at Joe, blinking her eyes, confused. After moving her head a little to look more around her surroundings, she winces before resting her head again. Looking up at Joe, she sighs a little before talking.
Who are you? What are you doing here? What am I doing here?
Joe half-laughs, but then the doctor steps in.
She may have a mild case of amnesia, Joe. Side effects from recovering. They should go away within a day or so, at the most.
Joe, now furious with Phoenix, grits his teeth in anger and turns to the doctor.
It's called privacy, you fucking quack, look it up.
The doctor leaves, livid at Joe, but Joe has good reason to be pissed. He turns back to Angel.
You're just pulling my leg right? I mean, you do know who you are, and who I am?
Angel shakes her head, looking even more confused.
I'm sorry, but I don't know who you are or what you are doing here. Do I know you?
Joe is having even more trouble controlling his anger, muttering curse words under his breath, directed towards Phoenix. Angel seems to be upset so he calms himself down.
I'm sorry for upsetting you, I'm just confused.
Yes I know. It's not you that upset me. You honestly don't know who I am?
Angel shakes her head.
I'm sorry I don't. You do look a little familiar though. I just don't know where I've seen you.
Angel frowns and then lets out a little cry of frustration.
I hate this!
Angel sighs and focuses on Joe again.
You never did tell me what you are doing here.
Well, I'm here visiting you. You were sent to the hospital after you recieved a concussion in your matchup..I'm your boyfriend.
A concussion??
Angel feels her head and then winces. She looks down at Joe and frowns.
You're my boyfriend? Why can't I remember you�wait! Was I at my sister's lately?
Joe smiles at the thought she may be ok after all.
Yeah, just last week you were, with me.
Angel frowns a little.
Where we on a beach one night? Talking about�um�. seducing?
Angel blushes a little and then looks up at Joe, waiting for a answer, a hopeful look in her eyes. Joe laughs a little.
Yeah, we were. Your sister brought it up, I believe, and you were avoiding the subject when I was asking if those were your plans. Of course you said they weren't.
Angel blushes a little and then smiles.
So, we are close then? I mean, closer than a normal boyfriend and girlfrend??
Before Joe can answer the doctor walks in.
Ms. Killionoff, I see that you are up. I brought your release forms. All you need to do is sign here and you are free to leave.
Angel takes the clipboard and signs the forms. She hands them back to the doctor who then walks out. Angel looks up at Joe with a worried and confused look.
I'm guessing your still wanting an answer.
Angel nods.
Well...if by that question you mean did we do anything..we didn't. In fact we both fell asleep shortly after that conversation we had. But we are extremely close, at least I'd like to think we are.
Well, that's not what I meant, but thank you for the honest answer.
Angel sighs and feels a tear go down her face.
I'm sorry. I know this must be hard for you, to stand there and look at me, knowing that I can't remember any of our relationship.
Angel sighs again.
So�um�Joe. What do we do now?
Well...the doctor said your amnesia would only last a day or so..so I guess we just stay around town until you get your memory back. I'll be patient.
Joe places an arm around her, although timidly, in case she refuses. Luckily, she doesn't.
There's a small cafe not too far from here, we could go there and I could try my best to answer your questions, maybe jump-start your memory, hopefully.
That would be great.
Angel slowly gets out of the bed slowly, Joe helping her careful. Angel smiles up at him a little. She blinks and then smiles a little more.
Last week, you were in the hospital, were you?
Joe smiles and wraps his arms around her and they walk out of the hospital and head to the caf� as the scene fades.
