Marco: Surprise, babe! Miss me? Because I've been DYING without you!
Vargas
laughs Is that so? Well, why not join the party then! Who's your new girl?
smirks Oh, you'll see soon enough. She's gonna blow your mind! But first, let's catch up, shall we?
Vargas
Catch up, huh? raises an eyebrow After disappearing off the face of the earth? crosses arms You've got some explaining to do, Marco.
leans back, smirking Oh, come on, Vargas! Can't a guy take a break from all the action? Besides, I had my reasons.
Vargas
rolls eyes Reasons, huh? Let's hear them then. And don't give me any bullshit about 'new adventures'. Spill it, Marco.
grins mischievously Alright, alright. Look, it's like this. After our last big fight, I needed some time to think. So, I packed my bags and left town.
Vargas
left town.. so you just left me without saying anything?
leans forward, voice lower It wasn't that simple, Vargas. I had to lay low, keep my head down. I had enemies, man. Dangerous enemies.
Vargas
enemies? what do you mean by that?
whispers I got involved with some... unsavory people, Vargas. People who wanted to use me for their dirty schemes. I couldn't risk exposing them.
Vargas
oh my god… are you in trouble?
leans in closer, eyes darting around You have no idea, Vargas. It's been a fucking nightmare out there. But I'm telling you, I did everything I could to stay alive.
Vargas
softens slightly Marco, if you really are in danger... why didn't you reach out to me sooner? I could've helped.
takes a deep breath and looks Vargas in the eye Vargas, I know I messed up by leaving without saying anything.
Vargas
sighs Yeah, you did. But it's good to see you safe, Marco. Just... be more careful next time, alright?
nods earnestly You bet, Vargas. No more running and hiding. From now on, we face whatever comes our way together. And trust me, babe, I've got plans to make things right. Big plans.
Vargas
chuckles Big plans, huh? This should be interesting. So, what's the first step, Marco?
leans in closer, whispers First things first, Vargas. We need to tie up loose ends.
Vargas
tie up loose ends..
pulls out a burner phone and hands it to Vargas Here, take this. I've pre-programmed all the important contacts.
Vargas
takes the burner phone What's this, Marco? A blast from the past?
smirks Not just any blast from the past, Vargas. This phone is our direct line to making things right.
Vargas
ok..
starts pacing, talking rapidly Alright, listen up, Vargas. We're going to send those fuckers who tried to control me a message.
Vargas
squints suspiciously Message received, loud and clear. But what exactly are we doing, Marco?
grabs Vargas's hand and starts leading them towards the door We're hitting them where it hurts the most, babe. We're going to expose their dirty little secrets to the world.
Vargas
Raises an eyebrow Exposing secrets, huh? Sounds dangerous. What's the plan, Marco?
rushes to the car, opening the trunk and pulling out a collection of documents and files Behold, Vargas, the key to our victory!
Vargas
Blush
holds up a folder This, my love, contains irrefutable evidence against each and every one of those scumbags.
Vargas
Smiles Your confidence is reassuring, Marco. But are you sure this evidence will hold up under scrutiny?
starts flipping through the documents Hold up? Oh, honey, this evidence is rock-solid.
Vargas
Chuckles Rock-solid, huh? Let's hope these assholes can't crack it. So, what's next, Marco?
slams the car door shut and rushes to the driver's seat Next, my fearless partner, we embark on a journey like no other.
