[Backstage, as NED and Willimas are again, arguing. It's what they seem to do best with on another. Serenity arrives on the scene, and Bryan stretches out his arms for a hug, but she blasts past him and jumps at NED....
Serenity: "I knew you'd do it for me..."
NED: "Uhh.."
Bryan: "Dammit, it's like, only that stupid monkey appreciates me."
[Serenity totally ignores him, as she continues to latch on to NED, and Amber comes around the corner, tapping her foot.
Amber: "Just friends, huh?"
NED: "Ah, sh- yeah. Yeah. Just friends."
[NED pries Serenity off of himself, and pushes her towards Bryan.
NED: "Show my fiancee what a *happy* could you two are. NOW."
[Bryan grabs Serenity-
Serenity: "NICKY!"
[Bryan looks at Amber.
Bryan: "That's her uh, pet name for me."
Amber: "She calls you Nicky?"
Bryan: "He's my hero. Heh. Right, Nicky-"
[NED glares at him.
Bryan: "I mean, uh, Mister Dangerously."
NED: "Now for that bet we had earlier."
Bryan: "What bet?"
NED: "The one in which I won two grand from you."
Bryan: "TWO F***ING GRAND? So steal a car, ass****!"
NED: "What do you drive?"
Serenity: "I think he rides a bike."
Bryan: "I DO NOT!"
Serenity: "... aren't you seventeen?"
Bryan: "WHAT? NO! I have a Yukon!"
Amber: "That's not all you have. You also have some bad lies."
[Bryan shrugs, as Serenity grabs NED's arm, trying to pull towards him, but Bryan pulls her away.
Bryan: "Heh, come on honey, let's go make those kids you promised."
Serenity: "WHAT?!"
[NED slaps his forehead, as Amber seems very, very unimpressed. Fade.
