*The camera cuts to a small suburban house on a lovely summer morning. It’s a quaint little place, made mostly of bricks. Inside, we see an empty room as The Squid-Man walks inside with a bucket of paint, in some overalls, rubber boots, and a painter’s cap. He puts the paint down, and we then see his perspective. There’s a fairly large spot on the wall where the paint has come off. He starts by taking a paintbrush out of the pocket of his overalls, setting it down beside him before picking up the can of paint and trying to pry it open with a crowbar. He sets the crowbar on the side of the lid and pries up, but it doesn’t work because he’s doing it in the wrong place. He puts a hand on his head and taps his foot like he’s thinking, before stabbing into the bucket with the crowbar, right in the center of the lid! He pulls it off that way, nodding to himself as he tosses them both aside. He dips the brush in the paint, easily painting over the unpainted area.*
*The camera cuts to a view of the wall, and the spot he just painted is bright red, while the rest of the wall is a pale blue. He double-takes at the spot on the wall, then picks up the paint can, which reads “The correct paint”, but that soon peels away to reveal the true name; “A different paint”. Squid looks at this, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, then at the label, then at the wall, until finally he realizes his mistake, pausing for only a second before facepalming hard.*
Squid-Man: I am a Squid.
*He tosses the paint can up in the air in frustration, but it soon comes down directly on his head, not only covering his squid mask in red paint, but also making it so he can’t see! Squid-Man yelps and runs around the room, finally stopping only when he smacks his can-covered head on the doorframe with a loud “DONK!” before he falls to the ground, unconscious.*
*The camera cuts to a new scene, where he’s got bandages around his head, but otherwise is still wearing the same outfit. He walks into the painting room with a new bucket of the correct paint, which does actually look blue this time. It even has the guarantee on the can that says “It’s Blue!”. Squid-Man carries the paint into the room, but soon finds himself tripping over the previously-spilled red paint, which causes him to stumble and accidentally launch the blue paint out the window, shattering it! The window, I mean, not the paint. Paint can't shatter, it's a liquid. The paint does go flying, though. All over the lawn. And a tree. And PWS: Apex star Nadia Lawson, who happens to be walking by. Squid looks at her and waves, and Nadia just looks at him with an exasperated expression, cracking her knuckles.*
*Cut to another scene, where Squid-Man’s looking at the newly-painted wall proudly. We only see him staring at it at first, but soon the camera cuts to a view from behind his shoulder where what he sees, which is the previously unpainted spot now covered in paint-coated grass from his front yard, as well as a leaf from the tree we saw paint-soaked just a moment ago. Squid-Man turns to the camera and gives a thumbs-up in approval of this.*
Squid-Man: I am a Squid!
*The camera cuts to a screen with a cartoon, CGI animated squid-man, who winks at the camera.*
Cartoon Squid-Man: I am a Squid!
*The screen says “Squid-Man Productions 2023”. It stays on this image for only a moment, before the screen fully fades to black.*

*Scene opens up to last week's Riot, backstage, about 25 minutes after the incident with Jack Edwards. Candy was in her locker room, comforting the crying Ruby. But nothing was helping. The door flings open and in rushes Marcus Cage.*
Marcus: What's going on? I could hear Ruby crying down the hall
Ruby: DADDY! RUBY SCAWED!
*Poor thing could barely get the word "scared" out before Marcus scooped her up on his arms and hugged her tight. He loomed to Candy, who was still visibly upset herself.*
Marcus: What happened?
Candy: I… it was so scary, Marcus! The new guy…
Marcus: Jack? The one who took your title?
Candy: Mmhmm. I turned my attention for like 5 seconds to get something for Ruby and she and the pups took off. I knew she was safe cuz Fluffy and Hero protected her. But when I found her, he was yelling and screaming at her and she was crying and…
*Candy starts to cry a bit herself… but out of anger*
Marcus: Did he lay a hand on her? Or you? I'll kill him.
Candy: He tried to grab Ruby’s arm but Hero and Fluffy wouldn't let him. Then I got there and he kept yelling and being a butthead, so I challenged him for my rematch and he said only if we did a tye-dye match which sounded stupid so he grabbed Fluffy and tried to throw her out the window! It was awful Marcus.
*Marcus's face went red with rage*
Marcus: I swear to god…
Candy: No. Marcus. Don't hurt him.
Marcus: Why not?
Candy: Because I'm gonna kill him, Marcus. He made my baby cry. He tried to hurt Fluffy. I'm so mad I could just… say bad words!!!
Marcus: Candy…
Candy: No, Marcus. This is my fight. I can handle it. I'll make HIM cry!
Ruby: Mommy saved me from the bad man!
Candy: Mommy will always save you, sweety. Always.
*The scene fades to black*
HI EVERYONE! Candy here! I just wanted to take a moment to talk to you guys!
So Miss Ruby is ok after what happened with the mean old Jack Edwards. She was scared for a little bit but she's OK. I'm really mad at him. Like more mad than I've ever been.
But I can't worry about him right now. I gotta focus on my match this week against The Squid-Man. That's such a fun name! Is he like Spider-Man but… a squid? Did he get bit by a radioactive squid and now he has super powers? OMG IS HE A SUPER HERO? What are his powers? Does he ink when he gets scared?
How am I supposed to beat a super hero? That's not a fair fight! But I'm gonna win anyways! And it's gonna be fun! I wonder if he knows any mermaids!? I WONDER IF HE KNOWS SPONGEBOB!?
ANYWAYS!!! BYE!!!![/]
