INT. HONEY'S & ALECHS HOME - GUEST HOUSE - LAS VEGAS, NV - APRIL 27TH.
♫ I hear your heartbeat to the beat of the drums, Oh what a shame that you came here with someone. So while you're here in my arms, let's make the most of tonight… ♫
The music plays out from Honey's phone on from her Bluetooth speaker that changes colour while she's currently busy cooking in the small kitchen in the small guesthouse working with four burners dancing a little bit in her shorts and oversized t-shirt that clearly didn't belong to her. Alechs is in the kitchen with her. When Honey had visited his uncle's home in California, Honey was on pork stirring duty but this time, in their home and because of Alechs cooking ability being described as "lucky he doesn't burn water", she has him on stirring.
Alechs Aurelio:
"You sure I'm doing this right?”
"You sure I'm doing this right?”
Honey comes over with a handful of spices she had been mixing together in a small ceramic bowl to inhale the aroma and sprinkles a pinch or two of the spice into the bowl, a multitask excuse to plant a kiss on his cheek as she has to lean up onto her tip toes to reach him, but worth it.
HONEY:
“You're doing great! Keep stirring like Miss Alerie says.”
“You're doing great! Keep stirring like Miss Alerie says.”
Alechs's mother Alerie who Honey really enjoyed spending time with evident by how she mentions his mother to him making him have a small roll of his eyes. Honey and him couple-y scoop the pork into a mixing bowl and shows him what she learned from his mom by adding in her concoction of fried onions, tomatoes, chilis and spices to the mix and has Alechs mix again while she prepares a lot of husk and dough to make the tomalaes, the pair taking turns to scoop in the mixture, Honey's neater than Alechs' blobs before she lets him tie them up as she folds them and puts them into the steamer. Next Alechs followers her instructions to making some salsa while Honey slowly started to break up her dwindling supply of Strawberry kitkats into crumble that she begins to sprinkle over three bowls over ice cream, all with three scoops of strawberry ice cream. Honey now squeezes past Alechs to get the bowls into the freezer when the door rings. Honey, not thinking, rushes through and nudges Alechs.
Alechs Aurelio:
"Calm down Honey Gonzalez.”
"Calm down Honey Gonzalez.”
Honey misses the name as she runs to the door and opens it to greet her parents; Walter and Franklin who agreed to come over to dinner. Honey opens the door and acts very professional by clearing her throat.
HONEY:
“Daddy, Walter, welcome to Casa De Cubbies.”
“Daddy, Walter, welcome to Casa De Cubbies.”
And she opens up the door, extending her arm to gesture them to step into the room. Franklin only goes for a step.
HONEY:
“STOP!!”
“STOP!!”
Nearly giving Franklin a heart attack as he steps back.
Franklin Smith:
"What is it?”
"What is it?”
Alechs Aurelio:
"Everything ok?”
"Everything ok?”
Alechs says coming running in as Honey gets the welcome mat down in front of them, they had one outside and now one inside that reads "Welcome to our Home" with two puppy drawings, yellow with brown spots, but Honey points to the side where Alechs's shoes where neatly set on a black thin strip assigned for shoes as Honey's smaller converses were next to them.
HONEY:
“You have to make sure you see our new welcome mat. As guests, you're, like, the first to step on it.”
“You have to make sure you see our new welcome mat. As guests, you're, like, the first to step on it.”
Alechs Aurelio:
"Welcome-”
"Welcome-”
Franklin Smith:
"Thank you, you both have been busy making this place your own.”
"Thank you, you both have been busy making this place your own.”
Alechs tries to show off Honey who admittedly was in charge of decorating their house.
Alechs Aurelio:
"Honey has done most of it. Which reminds me, I'm supposed to be cooking. Excuse me.”
"Honey has done most of it. Which reminds me, I'm supposed to be cooking. Excuse me.”
He politely excuses himself, Honey copies him and follows him into the kitchen, a small area at the end of the living room/dining room. Walter looks at the couch with the dining table just located at the side, four seats available with the table laid out with cutlery as Franklin speaks to Walter in private, waiting for the Young Cubs to vanish into their kitchen to speak.
Franklin Smith:
"Did you hear that? Very polite.”
"Did you hear that? Very polite.”
Franklin nods impressed, while Walter counters with a nod backwards to the kitchen, gesturing he's speaking about Alechs.
Walter:
"Did you not hear what he said? Lazy, letting Honey do the decorating.”
"Did you not hear what he said? Lazy, letting Honey do the decorating.”
Franklin finds him purely nitpicking, as Honey had decorated a few rooms in their old Omaha home.
Franklin Smith:
"Now, now. Give him a chance, he's in the kitchen right now making me, you and Honey a meal. Let's not cause an incident.”
"Now, now. Give him a chance, he's in the kitchen right now making me, you and Honey a meal. Let's not cause an incident.”
Franklin squeezes Walter's arm and he shrugs with a loud exhale, shoulders falling down as the air escapes.
Walter:
"Fine. But Honey needs someone proactive. I don't want this place to be covered in cheetoh bags and candy wrappers with xbox going off, Honey said his brother plays games.”
"Fine. But Honey needs someone proactive. I don't want this place to be covered in cheetoh bags and candy wrappers with xbox going off, Honey said his brother plays games.”
Franklin throws his arms in the air, looking to the ceiling for help as he finds the idea of Alechs lounging around in his boxers and socks playing video games, as Walter was nitpicking into a wild assumption that his brother means he too played them avidly to the point his wrestling career would suffer.
Franklin Smith:
"I hardly think he's an addict.”
"I hardly think he's an addict.”
Walter hears Alechs speak, it isn't audible but the pair keep a little silent and then resume their conversation.
Walter:
"Those video games, I read an article, people have gotten so addicted they forget to eat. Now is that what you want for Honey? He influences her to some warriors of warcraft game and they give up on wrestling.”
"Those video games, I read an article, people have gotten so addicted they forget to eat. Now is that what you want for Honey? He influences her to some warriors of warcraft game and they give up on wrestling.”
Franklin just sees this as a mirror of his own delusional train of thought, though he largely goes way further with it, but pinching just below his lower lip to observe and wonder.
Franklin Smith:
"Is that how I come across when I go a bit drastic, because I can see why people find it off. And besides, that's Alechs' brother, Alechs is the more mature one of the three…two.”
"Is that how I come across when I go a bit drastic, because I can see why people find it off. And besides, that's Alechs' brother, Alechs is the more mature one of the three…two.”
Franklin says knowing the brother talk and certainly doesn't want to cause Alechs any emotional distress
Franklin Smith:
"Avoid the brother's conversati-here they come.”
"Avoid the brother's conversati-here they come.”
Honey comes out carrying in a plate in either hand, balancing a small complimentary bowl of salsa and three tamales, two on the other plate. Alechs carrying a plate in either hand, balancing a bowl on either with salsa in with three tamales on either plate.
Franklin Smith:
"Something smells good, Chef Honey!”
"Something smells good, Chef Honey!”
INT. CASA DE CUBBIES - KITCHEN - HONEY'S DADS' GUEST HOUSE - LAS VEGAS, NV - APRIL 27TH.
Honey is now working with Alechs in the kitchen, really putting his best efforts into stirring the salsa and even folding napkins into triangles for the meal. With the PING of her oven timer, a bunny rabbit one, she gets the Tamales out of the steamer and plates them up. Alechs pours some salsa into a small metal bowl to be served alongside the tamales.
HONEY:
“Does it smell like Miss Alerie's cooking?”
“Does it smell like Miss Alerie's cooking?”
Alechs takes a smell and finds Honey has almost replicated the recipe perfectly, with his fingers rubbing against his thumbs eager to sit down and eat. Honey looks back and forth from eye to eye waiting for his reply, eventually he does.
Alechs Aurelio:
"Si, Chica.”
"Si, Chica.”
HONEY:
“You were just like, um, Anton Ego. From Ratatouille.”
“You were just like, um, Anton Ego. From Ratatouille.”
Honey says relating his expression to that of the character having an inner moment, flashing back to his childhood where he tastes his mother's cooking and has a turn of character from vindictive to an open minded and friendlier character. Honey pictured he too had this, however she knew he didn't really have much home cooking, so she assumed it was one of the times he did get his mother to cook for him, savouring the bite. But Alechs shakes his head.
Alechs Aurelio:
"No, Honey. Shall.”
"No, Honey. Shall.”
Alechs takes a brief pause, nervous about the dinner as he powers through his statement.
Alechs Aurelio:
"…go and have dinner.”
"…go and have dinner.”
HONEY:
“Okies! I'll take Daddy's and mine, you take Walter's and yours.”
“Okies! I'll take Daddy's and mine, you take Walter's and yours.”
Making Alechs none too pleased, he'd have prefered anyone else's plate but carries it in.
INT. CASA DE CUBBIES - LIVING ROOM/DINNING ROOOM - HONEY'S DADS' GUEST HOUSE - LAS VEGAS, NV - APRIL 27TH.
Honey comes carrying Franklin's plate.
Franklin Smith:
"Something smells good, Chef Honey!”
"Something smells good, Chef Honey!”
Franklin and Walter take a seat next to each other as Honey puts down the plates in front of Franklin as Alechs puts Walter's plate down for him, as the Young Cubs tag team take a seat.
Walter:
"Oh look, the food has a dough bowtie and complimentary salsa.”
"Oh look, the food has a dough bowtie and complimentary salsa.”
Walter says noticing how the food was tied in order to steam and is met with a kick to the shin under the table for his tone.
HONEY:
“They're called Tamales, Alechs loves them.”
“They're called Tamales, Alechs loves them.”
Franklin Smith:
"They look absolutely delicious. Did you make them yourself?”
"They look absolutely delicious. Did you make them yourself?”
Honey usually nods to most questions, but she shakes her head. Franklin gives a "see?" look/glance to Walter, clearly a double handed question of caring father/one-uppmanship partner.
HONEY:
“Nope! Alechs helped me, we tag teamed up in cooking.”
“Nope! Alechs helped me, we tag teamed up in cooking.”
Alechs Aurelio:
"I just did what she told me.”
"I just did what she told me.”
Alechs says cutting into the food, clearly his favorite dish his mother made that he was overly eager to enjoy. The answer allows Walter to give that very same look back along with the eyebrow raise that Franklin hated.
Walter:
"Mmhmm.”
"Mmhmm.”
Franklin Smith:
"Well, I'm not waiting a second to dig in, thank you both.”
"Well, I'm not waiting a second to dig in, thank you both.”
Franklin says taking a large bite looking at Walter to combat his eyebrows while Honey smiles and nudges Alechs as if to say "they like the food too!", which brings the scene to a close.
INT. CASA DE CUBBIES - LIVING ROOM/DINNING ROOOM - HONEY'S DADS' GUEST HOUSE - LAS VEGAS, NV - APRIL 27TH.
The power shower can be heard as Alechs was getting to grips with jets coming out of the wall to spray his back instead of just from the shower head and Honey smiles hearing him get all clean while she has her phone filming on her as she sits in a white, fluffy bathrobe finishing her strawberry ice cream and waves to the new camera.
HONEY:
“Hello new people in Redemption, my name is Honey and I wanted to, like, tell you all about the stuff you should know. Me and Alechs are a tag team called the Young Cubs. He's older than me but we're both two, like, hungry fighters, even though we are full of Tamales right now.”
“Hello new people in Redemption, my name is Honey and I wanted to, like, tell you all about the stuff you should know. Me and Alechs are a tag team called the Young Cubs. He's older than me but we're both two, like, hungry fighters, even though we are full of Tamales right now.”
Honey pats her belly, puff goes her bathrobe absorbing the pat as she speaks to all the new signings in RW.
HONEY:
“But, like, in Canada, we will be hungry again. For another win in the tag team division that, um, some of you might want to join. And that's Super! Because we can always have new matches. Like this one tonight. Coda is this very, um…nice…lady, who is also, like, frightening too. She likes to watch my matches very closely and we, like, run into each other backstage and stuff. So we have our little, um, thing. Then Alechs and Jeremy are going to be fighting too, Alechs is on my side and Coda gets Jeremy, I think they aren't a couple, but, maybe they might be…I think.”

Honey shrugs, perhaps she had thought about Joda as a couple.
HONEY:
“Alechs and Jeremy also, like, talked backstage and Jeremy was all..”
“Alechs and Jeremy also, like, talked backstage and Jeremy was all..”
Honey now frowns and wobbles her head back and forth.
HONEY:
(As Jeremy)
“Prove, prove, prove Alechs. Size your moment and stuff.”
(As Jeremy)
“Prove, prove, prove Alechs. Size your moment and stuff.”
She says wagging her finger about and stops impersonating Jeremy.
HONEY:
“And Alechs was all..”
“And Alechs was all..”
Honey puffs up her chest and squares her arms, and speaks in a gruff voice, her boy impression.
HONEY:
(As Alechs)
“Shhhh Jeremy. I'm all burly and macho and I want that title shot from you, rawr rawr rawr.”
(As Alechs)
“Shhhh Jeremy. I'm all burly and macho and I want that title shot from you, rawr rawr rawr.”
Honey then looks up, tapping the corner of her mouth, thinking about that confrontation where Alechs took the title shot.
HONEY:
“Which is, like, really great and I want Alechs to be the best and Young Lion's Champion. That's basically why Mr. Devlin Scott decided.”
“Which is, like, really great and I want Alechs to be the best and Young Lion's Champion. That's basically why Mr. Devlin Scott decided.”
She now brushes her hair up into a spikey fringe and pretends to smoke a cigar, dipping the ash.
HONEY:
(As Devlin)
“Hey I'm cool, I'm, like, going to make the Young Cubs and the Rude Tigers face each other.”
(As Devlin)
“Hey I'm cool, I'm, like, going to make the Young Cubs and the Rude Tigers face each other.”
And then she just nods at the camera.
HONEY:
“So, now Coda. I'm ready to be in this, like, super big battle and show you that my, um, "protector" is a good thing, because Alechs is my chico and he will defend me because that's what partners do. I will do the same too, so don't be getting any ideas, Coda.”
“So, now Coda. I'm ready to be in this, like, super big battle and show you that my, um, "protector" is a good thing, because Alechs is my chico and he will defend me because that's what partners do. I will do the same too, so don't be getting any ideas, Coda.”
Honey says point blank, pausing to look to the camera.
HONEY:
“And Jeremy, well, you've always had my letter…”
“And Jeremy, well, you've always had my letter…”
Honey says mistaking the cliché saying, as she was yet to beat Jeremy.
HONEY:
“But my name is Honey. It starts with a H and that has a lot of words. Heroic, um, Happy. Hard-working, Helpful. High-Spirited! Lots of words that, um, maybe describe me and make me a really good tag team partner. Like, we're in this tag team division to be Redemption Wrestling's top team one day. It's on my vision board, but one day soon, I get to beat Jeremy and Coda and show Coda that I am not afraid.”
