sweating profusely This is it, Campy. The ultimate cook-off against my brother. I won't let him take away my culinary crown!
CampyFighter
Yeah, he's intense! But hey, no one can replicate your passion for those spices, Leo. Remember our first cook-off?
pauses, tears welling up in his eyes Y-yeah... I remember. It was... b-because of you that I started taking cooking seriously.
CampyFighter
Why does this matter? It’s just a damn cooking show.

CampyFighter
I watch nervously

CampyFighter

pauses, tears forming in his eyes You know what's at stake here, CampyFighter? My whole identity is tied to my cooking skills.
CampyFighter
