Leslie sits in the gym tapping her knees anxiously. Kolotov walks in, they both look at each other for a long moment in silence.
Leslie lets out a cheer, jumps up and runs over to him for a massive high five.
Kolotov smiles.
They both laugh.
Her phone buzzes in her pocket. She pulls it out and looks at the screen. Her face goes pale.
Leslie hurriedly walks into one of the side room. She takes her phone out and opens it. We see a news alert on the screen. Leslie opens her phone to a live broadcast.
Leslie puts the phone down. She looks out the glass window of the side room and sees Kolotov practising with a punching bag.
Annika walks out from the shadows in the side-room.
Her arms are folded, she looks cold and speaks quietly and plainly.
Kolotov
I got the part.
Leslie lets out a cheer, jumps up and runs over to him for a massive high five.
Kolotov
Hold on, they want me in for costuming soon, so if I take the gig, I’ll miss this match.
Leslie Jones
Shut up, nope, I ain’t letting you throw this away. I’ll fight solo this week.
Kolotov smiles.
Leslie Jones
It’s a four way against four folks I ain’t ever heard of. I’m Leslie motherfucking Jones; I think I’ll be ok.
They both laugh.
Kolotov
I’ll be back next week I swear.
Leslie Jones
I know K.
Kolotov
You want to get some training done now?
Leslie
Yeah sure let me –
Her phone buzzes in her pocket. She pulls it out and looks at the screen. Her face goes pale.
Kolotov
Leslie, you ok?
Leslie Jones
Yeah, sorry I gotta go.

News reporter on phone
As the search for Micheal Chiklis continues more sad news comes out of Hollywood. Police officials have confirmed that SNL stars Pete Davidson, Kenan Thompson and Cecily Strong are now also reported missing. While unconfirmed, the police are not ruling out that these disappearances may be linked. Anyone with any information is urged to come forward.

My mother used to make me clean the gutters every day as a child, she would force me up there and make me clean for sometimes hours. I never understood why; then the storm came. They said it was a once in a lifetime event, unprecedented, I watched houses get flooded and people lose everything they held dear; I watched people die. But we survived. Because my mother knew, she could feel it coming, somewhere deep down she knew, she couldn’t stop it, but she could be ready. Consider this a friendly warning Leslie, ready your house, because a storm is coming.
