Jelissa J.:
"Hello, I'm Jelissa Joslin from APPW Magazine! And sitting across from me, we're here with the #1 Petalweight Contender, "Spooky" Sayaka Hayes. APPW Security's Todd Flanagan is standing outside, along with Dr. Edna Petersburg from the Calico Aster Athletic Commission. She is watching through the mirror window. APPW Head of Security, Todd Flanagan, is outside the door for my safety, in accordance with APPW and CAAC interview guidelines. Let's begin this interview."
Sayaka:
"What do you mean, Dr. Edna Petersburg is here?"
Jelissa J.:
"Oh darn. I wasn't supposed to say that, was I?"
Sayaka:
"You know, Mymphis told me about you."
Jelissa J. (fake smile):
"Mymphis is a good person. She's a great judge of character. I wasted her time. I did not deserve her presence."
Sayaka:
"So, you deserve mine?"
Jelissa J. (confused):
"No. I mean, I... Okay, I don't know. I don't always know the answers."
Sayaka:
"You're afraid... I like that. But I still don't trust you."
Jelissa J. (looking at the mirror window)
"Uh...."
Sayaka (looking at the mirror window):
"Whoever is behind that mirror doesn't matter. Whatever advice they gave you before you sat across from me doesn't matter either."
Jelissa J. (nervous):
"So om, I heard... I heard that... om... Did you really om... Okay, look."
Sayaka:
".....?"
Jelissa J.:
"I was at PResent Armz Entertainment the other night, and I overheard someone at the bar mention that om..."
Four light taps touch the mirror.
Jelissa J. (scared):
"S-sorry. Okay. Let's move on."
Sayaka:
"Yes...."
Jelissa J.:
"Yes, let's move on."
Sayaka:
"No..."
Jelissa J.:
"Excuse me? I mean, if you don't mind, please excuse me."
Sayaka:
"Yes to the question you were going to ask."
Jelissa J.:
"....??!"
Sayaka (staring at Jelissa):
".........."
Jelissa J. (staring at Sayaka):
"..................??!"
Sayaka:
"Aren't you going to ask me some wrestling questions? That is why I'm here."
Jelissa J.:
"How did you come up with the name Spooky Sayaka?"
Spooky (staring at Jelissa):
"................."
Jelissa J. (slow blinking):
"................"
Sayaka:
"Do you like cats?"
Jelissa J.:
"Oh my God, I love cats! They are so freaking cute."
Sayaka:
"Then why do you have a strand of dog hair on your shirt?"
Jelissa J. (checking shirt):
"Because I love dogs too?"
Sayaka (staring at Jelissa):
"............."
Jelissa J. (nervous):
"The truth is, I'm allergic to cats."
Sayaka:
"Maybe cats are allergic to you."
Jelissa J. (nervous):
"They probably are... You know what else? I blame Robbin READY."
Sayaka:
".....???"
Jelissa J.:
"T-think of how many cats would be happy if she just went away."
Sayaka (staring at Jelissa):
"........................?"
Jelissa J.:
"I read that she has a om, high PSE score? That thing is probably a lie. That doesn't mean she's good, right? Oh come on. No one is THAT good. There has to be some bad in her somewhere."
Sayaka:
"How long are you going to pretend to be my friend?"
Jelissa J. (nervous):
"I'm not pretending."
Sayaka:
"Do you think that I'm stupid?"
Jelissa J. (looking at mirror window):
".......???"
Sayaka: (looking at the mirror window):
"........?!!"
Sayaka stands up and opens the door. Only Todd is there, standing in the hallway.
Todd F. (to Sayaka):
"Ma'am, is everything alright?"
Sayaka (to Jelissa):
"Where is she?"
Jelissa J.:
"Where is who?"
Sayaka (angry):
"You said Dr. Petersburg was outside watching. No one is there!"
Jelissa J.:
"Okay, the truth is, I got scared. I figured you wouldn't try to harm me if you knew she was outside watching!"
Sayaka (angry):
"Arggh!!!!!!!"
Todd F. (to Sayaka):
"????!!!!"
Jelissa J. (crying):
"Arghhh! NO!!!! PLEASE! I'm sorry! I didn't know any better! I'm new here, and I really need this job! The prices went up. The tax rate is super high. I don't know what to do!"
Sayaka (smiling):
"Ha ha ha! Now I believe you. Your fear has the ring of truth in it. Never start an interview with me based on a lie. Because you lied to me, you owe me DOUBLE. And this interview is over. You can try again next week. And next time... Do not forget treats, no meat. *hiss*
Todd F. (confused):
".......???"
Sayaka leaves the room, as a distraught Jelissa stares at the floor, wondering what just happened.
(Interview ends)
Jelissa (to Todd):
"...What just happened?"
Todd F.:
"I don't know... She's, you know..."
Jelissa (to Todd):
"Why did you knock?"
Todd F.:
"Oh, you heard that? That's my fault. I had my hands on the glass and tapped it before I took them off. No particular reason."
Jelissa J.:
"That upset her. Did you see how jacked she was? She looked smaller on TV. I thought she was at least 4'11" or 5'2". "
Todd F.:
"They need to get you some babyfaces."

....Jelissa and Todd leave the interview room.
