Dylan and Lissandra are back in Hollywood after Dylan's win against Crazy Chris at High Rollers. They're in the kitchen preparing dinner for the two of them - when Dylan suddenly says something.
Dylan: Y'know baby... I've been thinking.
Lissandra: About what, honey?
Dylan: Dave.
Lissandra suddenly looks perplexed for a moment when suddenly her face contorts into one of fear.
Lissandra: Oh, God, baby! What have you done this time?! It's 48 hours since High Rollers! What could you possibly have done in that time?! What the hell do I have to call Dave for, this time?
Dylan: What? No... no! I'm just thinking... you know how Incredible was thinking about bringing his bodyguard Knux to watch the backs of the A-List...?
Lissandra quietly nods, confused.
Dylan: What if the A-List had two bodyguards? A whole proper entourage! Knux & Dave! Now that you are carrying my baby and I'm the new X-Division Champion and all....
Lissandra: I dunno baby. You know Dave is busy with his uhh…. let's call it... 'work'.
Both Lissandra and Dylan share a knowing nod and smirk. Dylan nods.
Dylan: Sure baby... but I was thinking it would be fun.
Lissandra: OK... OK! I'll ask him, but don't expect anything.
Dylan: I know. He's busy.
Lissandra: Watch the potatoes.

Lissandra walks away from the kitchen leaving Dylan to watch the dinner cooking and looking hopeful. Lissandra walks through to her office pressing one of her speed dial buttons on her office phone and then immediately hangs up. Seconds later, the phone rings and she immediately picks it up.
: So?
Lissandra: A job.
: Who?
Lissandra: Us, Dave.
Dave: I'm sorry. The fuck?
Lissandra: Not to take us out. To guard us - on the road. Our associate is bringing his bodyguard in eventually. Dylan wondered whether you'd like to be ours. You and Knux - our entourage if you like.
Silence for a few seconds on the other end of the line but Lissandra is sure that she hears the chewing of gum.
Dave: Pay?
Lissandra: Double what you charge us for fixing our problems around Hollywood.
Dave: OK, Liss. You got yourself a deal. I'll leave Sal in charge of at home. When do I start?
Lissandra: When can you start? Can you make it to Dallas in two weeks?
Dave: Yeah. I'll be round tomorrow to discuss details.
The line goes dead and Lissandra smiles to herself whilst walking back to the kitchen where we find Dylan serving up food. Lissandra walks up behind Dylan and kisses him on the cheek.
Dylan: So?
Lissandra: I said double pay for obvious reasons - but it's a yes. He'll be round tomorrow.
Dylan nods to himself triumphantly and smiles. The A-List is about to get even more elite.
