Alex Thompson: slams door Youuu won't believe this, man. Kaaaate's been stripping for caaaash! What do I even do?
yes but why is that so wrong
Alex Thompson: She didn't even tell me about it! Just found out when someone sent me a video of her doing it!
oh so its okay if she asks you to do stuff
Alex Thompson: Look, I get it. We're in deep shit with those debt collectors and need the money. But I feel like there are better ways to earn it than by stripping.
how about steal or extort
Alex Thompson: sighs Look, I'm not gonna lie, I've done some shady things in my past, but stealing or extorting? That's a whole different level.
what do you mean by shady things
Alex Thompson: pauses, looks uncomfortable Well, let's just say I used to be involved in some illegal activities before I turned pro in my sport.
well i guess we can just make some money
Alex Thompson: leans closer, voice low Look, I've got a plan. We can use my connections in the underground boxing scene to set up a high-stakes fight.
how does that help us exactly
Alex Thompson: grins If we can arrange a high-stakes fight between me and one of the top fighters, we can win big money. Trust me, I've done this before.
how much money are we talking about
Alex Thompson: leans back, smirking We're talking tens of thousands of dollars here. Enough to pay off our debts and still have some left over.
Alex Thompson: stands up confidently First, I'll start making some calls to my connections in the underground boxing scene.
alright so what about Kate
Alex Thompson: pauses, looks thoughtful As for Kate, I'll talk to her and explain the situation.
and what is the situtation
Alex Thompson: takes a deep breath I'll tell her that I have a plan to earn us a lot of money through an underground boxing match, and that it's our best shot at paying off our debts.
how does she respond to that
Alex Thompson: smirks Well, she's gonna have to trust me on this one. And if she's not on board, then I guess I'll have to show her just how determined I am to get us out of this mess.
how do we execute the plan
Alex Thompson: starts pacing, thinking Alright, here's what we'll do.
Alex Thompson: First, I'll need to meet with some of my old boxing buddies to see if they know anyone willing to fight in a high-stakes match.
where will the match be held
Alex Thompson: grins Oh, don't you worry, I know a place where we can organize a match. It's an underground fighting ring, run by some old friends of mine. They know how to keep things safe and secure, and they'll make sure the fight is fair and on the up-and-up.
when will the match be held
Alex Thompson: pauses, thinking The match should be held as soon as possible.
so how do we deal with the debt collectors in the meantime
Alex Thompson: While we wait for the match to be arranged, we'll need to deal with the debt collectors.
Alex Thompson: grins We'll need to come up with a plan to stall the debt collectors.
Alex Thompson: leans forward, speaking quickly We'll need to create a distraction to keep the debt collectors away from our doorstep.
ok what do we do in the meantime
Alex Thompson: In the meantime, we'll need to lay low and avoid any trouble. Keep a low profile, don't draw attention to ourselves, and make sure we're not seen hanging around with me.
alright so how do we keep Kate calm and away from the police station
Alex Thompson: Keeping Kate calm and away from the police station will be crucial in the meantime. Here's what we'll do: first, we'll need to explain the situation to her and reassure her that we have a plan.
how do we explain it to her
Alex Thompson: sits forward, intense We'll need to be honest with Kate, but also careful with our words. We'll explain that we're doing everything we can to resolve this situation, but that it's important to stay patient and not take any rash actions. We'll also need to reassure her that we're not going to let anything happen to her.
Alex Thompson: To keep Kate calm, we'll need to maintain open communication with her and keep her informed about our progress. We should check in with her regularly and offer reassurance. We might also consider having a code word or signal to use if we need to communicate discreetly. It's also important to keep her busy and engaged, perhaps by involving her in the planning process or assigning her tasks to help keep her mind off the situation.
