Static feed fades into Baby Dogg relaxing with a suspiciously conical cigarette and a can of bitter.
"Vayne an' Jake Jones. The extremely ungrammatical 'Dominate Two' - yeah, you guys might want tae consult a dictionary before givin' yersels an aggrandizin' nickname. Maybe start by lookin' up 'verb'. V-E-R-B. Just sayin'."
She smiles slightly and sips from the beer.
"But anyways. I'm no' here tae ridicule yer linguistic skills, or lack thereof. No' exclusively anyhow. No. Today's lesson is about a concept I think you two are just about ready tae grasp the basics of. It's called honour. That's... well. It's kinda nebulous actually. But it involves... tryin' ta stick tae yer word. Recognisin' yer own faults an' tryin' ta do somethin' about 'em an' bein' acceptin' of others' faults. Bein' honest an' transparent about yer motives an' actions. Tryin' ta do right by yer mates. I know a lot o' these ideas might sound strange but de ye get the general flow of what I mean? Aye? Maybe."
She nods slightly and shrugs with an expression of mildly hopeful curiosity.
"Anyway that last one's the most important in this context. Doin' right by yer mates. See... Nail an' Harry are ma mates. An' I try ta be honourable person. So what does that mean? It means that despite the fact you only have sway over Nail's contract an' no' mine or Harry's, an' thus can't legitimately make us do crap, it means that if I have a chance at helpin' Nail out I'll take it. It means, gentleman, that I have no problem with facin' 'em in a fair fight. See the best matches are between people who know each other an' can read each other. People who trust each other. People who are comfortable pushin' each other testin' each other. Some o' the best matches of ma career have been against some o' ma best mates. So if ye're hopin' ta drive a wedge between us, ye're sorely mistaken. Nail 'n' Harry 'n' me are all comfortable enough wi' each other ta know that whatever happens in the ring, stays in the ring. Hell. This is just a chance tae get ta know each others' strengths an' weaknesses even better. Tighten up the unit. So really we ought ta be thankin' ye."
She smiles and takes a drag, then remembers something else.
"By the way guys, it's 'Baby', no' 'Babby'. Please try tae pay attention sometimes, aye? Oh and Nail? Who knows... maybe me an' Harry can teach you some new tricks too."
She winks and the image fades back to static.
