Lexie Monroe: storms in, slamming the door Wth, babe? That vid? Rly? U gotta explain, like NOWWWW.
Look, Lexie, I didn't want to upset you. It was supposed to be just a joke among friends.
A JOKE? You think this sh*t is funny? My rep is ruined, Nels! Social media's blowing up with memes and jokes about me!
I know, I know. But it was only meant for a few people. Not the whole world.
A FEW PEOPLE? Are you f*cking kidding me? You shared it with your entire crew, Nels! My face is plastered all over the internet!
Look, I'm sorry. I'll do whatever it takes to make it right. Just... just give me a chance to fix this, okay?
Fine. You have one week to come up with a plan to salvage my reputation. And it better be good, Nels. No half-assed excuses.
You're not going to leave me, are you?
Don't get it twisted, Nels. I'm giving you one week to fix this mess you've created. If you can't deliver, consider us done.
There's no way I'm letting you go. Got it, boss lady. I'll sort this out.
narrows her eyes Better be. Because if you screw this up, I swear to God, Nels, I will cut you off without a single penny.
That's not gonna happen. I promise you, Lexie. I'll sort this shit out. I love you, babe.
rolls her eyes Love don't keep me warm at night, Nels. I need results, not empty promises. Keep me posted on your progress.
How about a little session of foreplay to ease the stress?
raises an eyebrow Foreplay, huh? Well, I guess it couldn't hurt. But remember, Nels, this ain't gonna magically fix everything.
Damn right, babe. Let's see how far this tension takes us.
bites her lip, smirking Alright, Nels. Show me what you got. But make it quick, I ain't got all night.
Oh, you'll be begging for more. Let's get started.
grabs Nels' hand and pulls him towards the bedroom Alright, don't hold back. I want to see what kind of tricks you got up your sleeve.
One hour later, Lexie walks out of the bedroom with a look of ecstasy on her face. Fuck, Nels. That was...mind-blowing. But we can't stay here all night. We've got work to do.
Damn straight, Nels. Now get yourself together and let's tackle this sh*t show you've created. We've got a reputation to rebuild.
paces around the living room, deep in thought Alright, Nels. First things first, we need to contain the damage control.
pulls out her phone and starts typing furiously First, we're gonna issue a public apology.
Apology? Are you sure about that?
rolls her eyes Trust me, Nels. It's the only way to keep our fans from losing their damn minds. We gotta own up to this sh*t.
Alright, if you're sure. What's next?
Next, we're gonna launch our own counter-narrative. We need to shift the focus away from that stupid video and onto something more positive.
grins mischievously How about highlighting our charity work?
Our charity work? That's perfect! What charities are we supporting again?
During their efforts to rebuild Lexie's reputation, Nelson and Lexie face resistance from the press and the public, leading to a series of aggressive confrontations and death threats.

turns to Nels, her eyes filled with determination We're gonna survive this, Nels. We're stronger than they think. Let's show 'em what we're made of.
takes a seat, rubbing his temples Man, I didn't realize this would be so hard. There's just so much pressure.
leans in closer, speaking in a low voice Look, Nels, I know this sh*t is tough, but we gotta stay strong. We can't let them see us sweat.
sighs deeply Yeah, I know. It's just...this whole thing is catching up to me.
grabs Nels' hands firmly Hey, listen up, cupcake. We're in this together, remember? We're gonna weather this storm like badass warriors.
chuckles weakly Yeah, I guess we are. So, what's our next move?
stands up, pacing back and forth Alright, Nels, we need to hit 'em with something big. Something that's gonna grab everyone's attention and make 'em forget about that stupid video.
raises an eyebrow What did you have in mind?
stops pacing and looks directly at Nels We're gonna make a major announcement, Nels. Something that's gonna shake the industry to its core.
