       Tracey Bregman versus...Sharon Case?
       By: The Hot and The Dangerous Date: November 15, 2021, 4:15 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       A reporter slips into a back hallway of The Grand Combat
       Athletic Club, training center for The Hot and The Dangerous. He
       meets a lone security guard.
       Guard: I thought you'd never get here!
       Reporter: Sorry. It's not easy to get into this place, even with
       you unlocking the back door. So, what do you have for me?
       Guard: Well, a few months back, I was patrolling near the
       conference rooms and noticed the furniture for one of them was
       out in the hallway. I heard scream and cursing coming from the
       room. Before I could go in, Melody stopped me...
       ****************************************************************
       ******************************************
       Melody Thomas Scott: Wait here, please. She barely opens the
       door and slips inside, quickly closing the door behind her. The
       guard presses his ear to the door
       From inside:
       Melody Thomas Scott: What the HELL is going on in here! We have
       tournaments to get ready for!
       Some muffled replies are heard
       Melody Thomas Scott: Well, I'm ashamed of ALL of you! We don't
       handle things like that anymore! At least not in this stable! If
       I hear of anything like this again, EVERYONE involved will be
       OUT of this stable! I trust I make myself clear?!?
       More muffled replies are heard
       Melody Thomas Scott: GOOD! Ladies, get them taken care of and
       cleaned up.
       The guard quickly moves away from the door as he hears Melody
       coming back and the door flies open.
       ****************************************************************
       ******************************************
       Reporter: So you were able to see inside?
       Guard: Yes for a brief instant. Melody was so enraged she yanked
       the door wide open.
       Reporter: ...and?!?
       Guard: Look, I don't know exactly what happened, but I did see
       Camryn Grimes and Cait Fairbanks propping Sharon Case into a
       sitting position on the floor. I also saw Michelle Stafford and
       Gina Tognoni helping steadying Tracey Bregman. It looked like a
       tremendous fight had broke out between Tracey and Sharon. It
       also looked like Tracey won, but barely. Melody slammed the door
       shut and told me to ignore what I saw in there and get back on
       my rounds.
       Reporter: So why wait all this time to come forward? The
       tournaments were in June.
       Guard: Ever since the new 'head of security" Eileen Davidson
       showed up, she's been really cracking the whip on the guards. We
       know what we're doing and I, for one, am sick of it.
       A voice from behind them says, "Well, we don't want you to be
       unhappy."
       Both men jump. They turn and find Eileen Davidson and two other
       guards.
       Eileen Davidson: Your badge please.
       The guard silently removes his badge and hands it to Eileen.
       Eileen: We'll send your locker contents to you AFTER we have
       searched them to make sure there isn't any stable property mixed
       in. Guards? Please escort these two gentlemen off the premises
       through the "C" entrance.
       Outside
       Guard: Well, what do you think? Is that enough for a story?
       Reporter: Not really. I can't run with this. It would be one
       thing if you have proof, but... he trails off as the guard
       smiles
       Guard: I noticed one other thing in that room: The security
       cameras were on and recording.
       
       Reporter: Well, great, but I don't see how that helps us now. I
       can't exactly knock on the door and say "Hey, I understand there
       is secret footage of a knock down drag-out fight between two of
       your stable members. How's about a look?"
       Guard: still smiling You won't have to.
       Reporter: What do you mean?
       Guard: produces a small usb drive and hands it to the reporter
       The footage is here.
       Reporter: It's here?
       Guard: You bet. You think you have enough of a story now?
       Reporter: finally smiles back I believe I do, sir.

       The security monitor shows the reporter and now fired guard
       talking in the parking lot. The guard hands something to the
       reporter. They speak again briefly and then go their separate
       ways.
       Amelia Heinle: So, it looks like that guard had something on him
       after all. You should have searched him.
       Eileen: No need. That was a usb drive he handed that reporter.
       Taking them through the "C" entrance made them pass through a
       magnetic field. That should have erased everything on that
       drive.
       Amelia Heinle: ...and anything else the reporter had.
       Eileen: shrugs Well, he shouldn't have trespassed. lifts her
       hand to her earpiece as an alert buzzes Davidson, here.
       Amelia watches as Eileen's face hardens.
       Eileen: I understand. Please get it repaired as soon as
       possible. Davidson, out. disconnects
       Amelia: What's wrong?
       Eileen: Apparently, there was a small power outage to that
       section of the building. Emergency power kicked in.
       Amelia: voice rising Does that mean that footage is out there
       now?!?
       Eileen: slowly shakes her head It shouldn't. Even on emergency
       power, the field should have had enough strength to erase that
       small of a drive.
       Amelia: You better be right. We'll need to brief Melody.
