We see a darkened set, with silhouettes visible of a table. A voiceover is heard from Rob Cartwright.
Cartwright: Ladies and gentlemen, he is the host of The Piercing Truth, you know his name, the Icon of Entertainment, and the Creative Director of UGWC, he is...TRAVIS PIERCE!
“You Know My Name” by Chris Cornell begins to play, and the lights come on to show a chair sitting backwards behind the desk. A monitor behind the chair shows the logo for The Piercing Truth. The chair slow turns around, revealing Travis Pierce.
Pierce: Welcome to the show! I am Travis Pierce, and welcome to the Piercing Truth, where we are just a few short days away from Outlast in the Outback, where there won’t be any cyclones but there will be plenty of action! In what is unquestionably the most eagerly anticipated fan moment of the year, yours truly will be returning to action in the ring, but there are many other talented Entertainment Professionals in this year’s tournament as well. Lots to talk about, we begin with top stories!
Travis switches to Camera B.
Piece: The father of a young boy with dyspraxia, a developmental coordination disorder that significantly disrupts and obstructs communicative efforts, posted this week on Facebook that his son was inspired to overcome his disorder by watching the character Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy. The progress was short-lived, however, as the boy has now gone entirely mute after watching Dirge attempt to tie his shoes.
Travis switches to Camera A.
Pierce: As part of an on-going effort to force future players to have no option but to use Greek letters on the back of their uniforms, the New York Yankees today retired the uniform number of another great former player, the second of three this season. On the contrary, not retired are many of the talents making special appearances in action at Outlast, such as Director Ooley, Cypress Morgan, even yours truly. Aging like fine wine, the lot of us.
Travis switches to Camera B.
Pierce: And now we go to Eden Morgan, with tonight's sports update.
Cut to Camera B, panned back so that we can see both Pierce and Eden, seated at the extension of the desk.
Eden: Sports? Why do I have sports? Travis, when I agreed to do this, you said it would be something that's perfect for me.
Pierce: I didn't lie. It's a perfect fit for you.
Eden: With ideas like these, it's hard to see how you're being called one of the greatest Creative Directors UGWC has ever had. Seriously though, why don't you just stick Killian on sports and make him talk about American football, send him into a tizzy.
Pierce: You're an ideal commentator for the subject at hand.
Eden: I'm really not, Travis, I don't know anything about sports and I care even less.
Pierce: Come on, the baseball trade deadline just passed a few weeks ago, we're into the waiver period now. You must have thoughts on what it's like to suddenly change teams in mid-season, right?
Eden: About as much insight as you can provide for being suddenly kicked off a team in mid-season.
Pierce: Lots of good games last night. Surely one of them had to feature a walk-off, didn't it?
Eden sighs visibly.
Eden: Ask Zane, pretty sure he keeps track of any walk-offs.
Pierce: Thank you, Eden, for those valuable insights.
Eden: Ah, Travis. Such a tool.
Travis switches to Camera B.
Piece: And now we go to Killian King, with the weather.
Cut to Killian in front of an image of weather patterns over Australia.
Killian: It’s dark tonight, it’ll be light in the morning.
Killian gives the flying V and we cut back to Travis.
Pierce: Thank you, Killian, that was short. Now with a special lesson on how to make social media fail for you, we send it to our Senior Twitter Correspondent, Zane Scott.
Cut to first person footage from a cracked screen that is looking up at Zane.
Zane: YOU TELL PEARCE HE CAN-
Zane stomps on the lens and the image goes to static.
The screen goes dark, and we hear a voice-over.
Cartwright: And now for A Quiet Moment With Travis.
Cut to Travis sitting in a comfortable chair in front of a loaded bookshelf. He has a blanket over him and a pipe in his mouth, that he blows bubbles out of.
Pierce: Let’s get serious.
Travis blows some more bubbles.
Pierce: Everybody is going to assume this is just a novelty act appearance. That I’ve been out of the ring for eight months, and yeah, I was coming back for the Total J Cup, but that busted. I was up to face Zane at In Your Hands, but I didn’t get picked. People are going to say I only even got picked last week because Zane got duped and took me as a Mystery Entrant. Those things might all be true.
Travis blows some more bubbles.
Pierce: But this is also true, the piercing truth. I’m coming to Outlast to win. You’re asking how that could be possible. It is because Zane Scott is coming to Outlast to win. Eden Morgan is coming to Outlast to win. Killian King is coming to Outlast to win. Yeah, there are issues, but none of these people are so stupid as to put their own personal drama ahead of getting to that main event, and if they are, they’re hearing my words now and thinking twice about it. No, this team is going to win, we’ll all make it to the main event if we can, and then everybody is on their own, that drama comes back into play, and Travis Pierce does what he does best, take advantage of situations to his own gain. I’m coming for the World Heavyweight Title, and that is simply the piercing truth.
Travis looks directly at the camera.
Pierce: And we’ll catch you all on the flip side, and remember! It’s not my fault that the truth...hurts.
”You Know My Name” plays again as we fade out…
