In a nightclub, people are dancing and talking. A man is sitting at a booth surrounded by women.
Woman: Tell us more stories Ry.
Ryan drinks a shot. Ryan takes out his gun.
Ryan: I was taking down some criminals, as I do, and then one tries to run up on me. So I glow, blow! I hit him in the head with my gun.
One girl starts rubbing upon him.
Woman2: I need a man that can take charge like that.
Ryan brings out his cop badge.
Ryan: Don't worry. You girls be fucking with me, and you won't have any problems.
Ryan slips his badge back into his jacket. Everyone laughs. Ryan gets a call and picks up the phone.
Owen: Ay, you're not too drunk yet are you?
Ryan: Depends.
Owen: I got a new case. I know you only need a couple of minutes to finish up with what your doing.
Ryan: When I go, I go the whole damn night.
Owen: So you say. You coming?
Ryan: Yeah, and nice pun.
Owen: It was unintentional.
Ryan hangs up.
Ryan: I'm sorry ladies, but I gotta be on my way.
Woman3: But Ry…
Ryan: You know I'll be back tomorrow.
Ryan takes another shot off the table and drinks it. He slams it back down on the table and walks out the door. Kai opens the door at the same time as Ryan, and they bump into each other.
Ryan: Fuck off.
Ryan walks past Kai. Remi and Max are behind Kai. They all walk in and sit down at a booth. They all get drinks.
Kai: What do you have me doing? This is stupid.
Max: Good ol' instant regret.
Remi: All you have to do is find a girl checking you out and talk to her.
Kai: Yeah… All I have to do.
Remi: Kai, when was the last time you talked to a girl in a bar?
Kai: That's a good question. Never happened.
Max: You're a virgin!
Kai: No I'm not a virgin! I've just never picked up a girl in a bar. Don't get all excited because you thought you weren't the only virgin.
Max: Hey!
Remi looks over to see a girls eyes wander onto Kai.
Remi: Her.
Remi moves her hands in a way to signal who it is without giving it away.
Remi: Just go up and talk to her. Max and I are going to go dance.
Max: What?
Remi: Yup.
Remi forced Max to get up and start dancing.
Kai: This might be an arrow to my pride.
Kai takes a shot and sighs.
Kai: Why the fuck not?
Kai gets up and sits down next to the woman at the bar. The girl has long thick black hair going down to the middle of her back. She has a black dress on with silver earrings. Kai walks up to her. She quickly turns around and spills her drink on Kai.
???: Oh, I'm so sorry.
Kai: No, it's fine.
Kai sits down.
Kai: But why don't you buy me a drink to make up for it.
A car pulls up to the police station. Ryan gets out of the car, and walks inside. He walks up the stairs to Owen's office. Ryan bursts through the door without knocking.
Owen: You don't knock?
Ryan: You made me lose a threesome. So no, I don't.
Ryan sits down in a chair.
Ryan: We don't even solve cases anymore. The fuck am I doing here?
Owen: We're getting some… new technology.
Ryan: Bigger guns?
Owen: You could call it that. Follow me.
Owen leads Ryan downstairs and into the armory. There are boxes on the floor.
Owen: Open one of the boxes.
Ryan opens up a box. The box is filled with mini foam balls.
Ryan: I hate these shits. Foam balls get in the way.
Owen: Just look in the package.
Ryan grabs handcuffs.
Ryan: We have these.
Owen: Not those. Those are meta-cuffs. If they are put on a meta or mutant that mutant won't be able to use their powers.
Ryan: I'm not getting close to one of those monsters.
Owen: Keep looking.
Ryan pulls a gun.
Ryan: We have these too.
Owen: Has the alcohol finally finished off your last brain cell?
Ryan: Let me guess. Meta killing gun.
Owen: That gun has different modes. The regular mode shoots laser bullets. They are effective against invincible meta humans. The second one is for metas that won't stop. It sends out a dart to put them to sleep.
Ryan: Your saying we're back in business.
Owen: Oh, we're back baby.
They both start laughing. Kai and the girl he's talking to start laughing.
Kai: Yeah, I got my ass kicked by a blind guy.
???: How?
Kai: He was just too skilled. Wait, I haven't even asked your name.
???: My name is Raelynn.
Kai: So, I got beaten up by a blind guy as a kid, and then again last year. What did you do?
Raelynn: Not that.
She laughs.
Raelynn: Pretty normal compared to that.
Raelynn looks off to the people dancing then looks back at Kai.
Kai: That wasn't subtle at all. You might as well just ask to dance. C'mon.
They both get up and start dancing. Hours of partying later. The dancing dies down, and Kai walks Raelynn to her car.
Raelynn: So you're a gentleman.
Then Kai leans over and whispers in her ear.
Kai: When I want to be.
Kai kisses Raelynn. Raelynn gets in her car, and Kai gets in his. Kai drives back home. While Kai is driving Remi calls him. He answers it and puts it on speaker phone.
Remi: How are you going to lie and tell me you've never done that before?!
Kai: I haven't!
Remi: You just wanted me to tell you how good you are at it.
Kai: I have to get information out of people. Of course I'm a smooth talker. Especially when I'm drunk.
Remi: Are you drinking and driving?
Kai: Nah, the cold sobered me up.
Remi: Tell me all the details when we hang out.
Kai: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Kai hangs up the phone.
Kai: She's so nosy.
Kai goes home and falls to sleep. When Kai wakes up he goes downstairs, and starts making food. He hears the furnace open and close. Max walks into the kitchen.
Max: What's for breakfast.
Kai: You didn't tell me you were coming over.
Max: I've been here all night.
Kai: Were you just playing on the computer?
Max: No, I was downloading everything I have on my computer to that computer.
Kai: All night?
Max: No, then I played games.
Kai: You have really changed a lot since we first started hanging out. You were a lot more introverted a year ago.
Max: That's because I don't like things outside my room, but now your basement has become my room so I have to like you.
Kai: You could just use the guest room or something most of the time if you are just going to live here without my permission.
Max: No, no, no. I will buy a cot and sleep on my floor.
Kai: The basement isn't your floor.
Max: Yes it is.
Kai: What do you want for breakfast?
Max: Flapjacks.
Kai: What are you 8? No one calls them flapjacks.
Kai finishes cooking breakfast. They both bring their breakfast into the living room and watch television. They both finish eating.
Kai: Alright, I gotta go get dressed.
Max: For?
Kai: Meeting with Lawrence.
Max: Waste of time. You can do meetings over the phone.
Kai: This is why you don't have a company.
Kai walks upstairs, and gets dressed. When he comes downstairs he hears the shut of the fireplace. Kai shakes his head and leaves. Kai pulls up to Lawrence's house in his car. Kai gets out and knocks on the door. Lawrence's wife opens the door.
Lawrence's Wife: Oh, Kai. He's in his office. He's been busy calling people all day.
Kai: Thanks. I'll check on him.
Kai walks up to Lawrences office door. Kai knocks and walks in.
Lawrence: No you!
Lawrence hangs up the phone.
Lawrence: Kai, friend, brother! So good to see you.
Kai: Yeah, it's been a little while.
Kai sits down.
Kai: What have you been up to-
Lawrence: Let's get right into business. The glasses are about to go out to the public in a week or two. We need a commercial. Something to get the people interested.
Kai: Oh. What were you thinking-
Lawrence: Great, here's the script!
Kai grabs the script out of Lawrences hands.
Lawrence: I'll send you the location you have to go to film it. It's been fun-
Kai: You're not running my company. I appreciate all your help, but you can't just run my company without me.
Lawrence: You will get control of your company once the glasses go public. You don't have the freedom to mess up on something now. You need to give people the first impression.
Kai: Fine, but only until the glasses go public.
Kai stands up.
Kai: Have a good day Lawrence.
Kai leaves.
