[Scenes from an Italian restaurant.]
OBATA: The food here. Tasty.
YAMATO: Indeed! The meatballs, delicious and spicy!
[Hajime Kon nods in agreement. His brethren in FIGHTING LOVE!, in Kingdom of Japan, senpai Genji Yamato and his partner, Kohei Obata, they join him at dinner. They are doing most of the talking. Kon is not yet comfortable speaking in America. He has barely begun learning English. Instead, he just listens...]
OBATA: So. Soon we go to Mexico.
YAMATO: Yes, we do! I've not been since...
OBATA: Since you broke your leg, senpai?
YAMATO: .... Yes, since then.
[Back to eating, for a few, mercifully silent moments.]
YAMATO: Your match Monday.
OBATA: What of it, senpai?
YAMATO: I have... concerns.
OBATA: I've heard this conversation before...
YAMATO: Yes. Before a match with Aries Reed, in fact. You and myself had it. And I told you, it was all going to work out fine. Only... it didn't. And here we are again.
OBATA: I don't mind being the representative for Kingdom of Japan in this match. And indeed, Aries Reed has said some very nasty things about you, about KJPW, about... everyone involved. I am sure myself and Funky Dragon will do just fine against Aries.
YAMATO: It's not that I worry about you being the KJPW representative. It's more.... I worry you're being set up as a sacrificial lamb.
OBATA: In what way, senpai?
YAMATO: I think we know why you were booked. You're my student. This is... It's going to end up so that Aries Reed will take out his frustration with me, on you.
OBATA: I can handle myself, senpai. And I will have a partner, don't forget.
YAMATO: As will Reed! There is NO WAY that REVOLUTION won't help him. Not now.
OBATA: I can adapt. I can wrestle Aries Reed. I...
KON: 心配停止します。あなたが適切に消化されません。
[Yamato and Obata, both, just look at their brother in arms. Shocked by his uncharacteristic silence-breaking. With that, the rest of the meal is enjoyed. At least, by two of the men seated...]
