WCC Forever Episode 10 - The Coup


Fox River Penitentiary


Tai Rogers
Andrews.
Where are we with the plan?

Mark Andrews
I'm through my cell and found my way to the pipes under the psych ward.


Mark Andrews
Been digging day and night when the guards aren't around.
Now, I just need to find my way to the infirmary
and that's where we'll make our escape.

Tai Rogers
Are we on schedule?

Mark Andrews
Well, the loss last week doesn't help.
Dropping two games in a row this late in the season isn't good.
You're gonna have to start winning some games, Tai.
But if all goes well, we'll be out of here by Week 15.


Tai Rogers
Okay. I'll handle that.
And come Week 15, me, you and Olave are gone.

Mark Andrews
There's something I haven't told you yet...


Tai Rogers
What is it?

Mark Andrews
My plan requires a specific resource once we're outside of these walls.
Another inmate.


Tai Rogers
Who?

Mark Andrews
Lalo Salamanca.

Tai Rogers
Lalo Salamanca? Are you nuts?
That man is a dangerous cartel drug lord.


Mark Andrews
I know.
And that's why I need him.


Tai Rogers
Why?
I'm not comfortable allowing him back out into the world.

Mark Andrews
Once we're outside of these walls, anything can happen.
If we don't have a head start, our success rate drops dramatically.
As soon as the guards find out about the escape,
they'll be right on our tails.
That is, unless we have Lalo Salamanca.
Lalo has the money and resources to get us a private jet.
By the time the guards find out, we'll be half way to Mexico.



Tai Rogers
Mexico?
I need to find out who framed me.
I don't want to run to Mexico.

Mark Andrews
If we stay in the States, it won't be long before they catch us.
We can lay low in Mexico and find out who framed you out there.


Tai Rogers
There has to be another way.

Mark Andrews
There isn't.
I've thought of every scenario and this is our best shot.
Either we bring Lalo, or there is no escape.


WEST COAST COUSINS
FOREVER

Episode Ten - The Coup


Richard Sherman
Welcome back to the Richard Sherman podcast.
It's another week in the books for Week 9 and we've got a lot to talk about.

Mitch Eisenstein
That we do, Richard.
And I know you love to talk about the 49ers and the Seahawks
and sometimes the Broncos, for some reason.
But we've got to talk about the West Coast Cousins.


Richard Sherman
Hey, I'm with it, Mitch.
Let's talk about the West Coast Cousins.
We are past the midway point of the season, Mitch and you know what that means.
We're getting close to the playoffs.
That's what it's all about.

Mitch Eisenstein
Things are heating up in the WCC.
Let's start with Dollar Discount vs. #7tormsComing.


Richard Sherman
Man, my guy Captain Covfefe lost another game, now with back to back losses.
Losing to #7tormsComing 112.08 - 80.88.
Dollar Discount was really starting to come on strong,
he's the league leader in points.
But now he's in 7th place, on the outside looking in.
I'm confident he's gonna get it together, but a bit of a rough patch to start the season
And now going through it a bit here in Week 8 and 9.

Mitch Eisenstein
And on the other side, we saw the debut of the Baugh last week.
#7tormsComing now in 3rd place at 6-3.

Richard Sherman
You know, it doesn't always look pretty with #7tormsComing,
but he finds a way to win.
The addition of Dak Prescott could prove to be a turning point
as The Baugh looks to chase his 3rd League Championship.


Mitch Eisenstein
Meanwhile, Rich. Minhneto.
Chuckanuts is sitting there in first place at 7-2.
A big win over Rock Reigns, 91.29 - 57.58.

Richard Sherman
Chuckanuts has looked great so far.
He was great last season and he looks great again.
Anytime you have the combination of Jalen Hurts, AJ Brown and Stefon Diggs,
that's a recipe for success.
But my thing is for Minhneto, can he get the job done come playoff time?
He was knocked out of the Semi-Finals round last season
after finishing the regular season in first place.
Is he going to be able to put on a better showing come the postseason?
He's going to have to, if he wants to win his first League Championship, Mitch.


Mitch Eisenstein
And then there's Rock Reigns.
What are you thoughts about the God of Thunder, Rich?

Richard Sherman
If I'm being honest, I think the come down was inevitable for Rock Reigns.
Started the season hot, and CMC has been carrying this team.
But I think there's a lot of questions surrounding this team.
There's just too much inconsistencies across the board, in my opinion.
I'm not sold on the running back position outside of CMC.
Hopkins and Pickens, they show flashes but can also disappear.
I don't know. Rock Reigns can still make the playoffs,
but it's hard for me to imagine this team being there at the end of the season.
Especially now given the fact that Dallas Goedert is expected to be out for 4 weeks.
It's gonna be tough for Rock Reigns.


Richard Sherman
There's a lot of good teams in the league.
It's gonna be a tight race in this back half of the season.
It's anybody's game right now,
but we're gonna see Dollar Discount, T'Vincent, Alex's Team,
DBU and TEs Day in the mix.
It's going to be a really interesting next few weeks, Mitch.
And I can't wait for Week 10.
Discount vs. Reigns.
DBU vs. Alex's Team, it's gonna be some good matchups.


Mitch Eisenstein
Well Rich, before we get into Week 10,
we can't forget about the Bengal Bro's and the Undertaker.
Vinpool and Kevan.
We saw what happened last week when Vinpool aligned himself with William Stryker.
But man, what an upset by Kevan.


Richard Sherman
An upset is right, Mitch.
Week to week, anything can happen in the WCC and we saw that first hand in Week 9.
Vinpool caught Kevan by surprise early on.


Richard Sherman
19 points from Las Vegas defense.
But 15 of his own from Baltimore,
Kevan responded with his own strong defensive performance.


Mitch Eisenstein
22.32 from Joe Burrow.
Burrow has looked great lately, he seems to be fully healthy
and that could prove to be extremely helpful for Vinpool.


Richard Sherman
But we have to give Kevan his props.
He has been on the bottom all year long,
but man, Amari Cooper turning it on, 19.90.
Vinpool just didn't have enough offense to keep up.


Richard Sherman
Kevan was just a step ahead on Sunday.
And with Saquon scoring 11.30.
I don't want to say Kevan can't make the playoffs.. because never say never.
He's gonna have an uphill battle for sure,
but he looked great this past week.

Mitch Eisenstein
But Vinpool wasn't completely out of it.
14.50 from Mostert to keep it competitive.


Mitch Eisenstein
Ultimately though, it was not enough.
Rachaad White sealing the deal with 2 touchdowns, scoring 23.90,
helping Kevan win 118.94 - 100.72.


Minhneto
Fucking amateurs...
Let me show you how to get the job done.

Mark Andrews
Lalo. I have a proposition for you.

Lalo Salamanca
Beat it, kid.

Mark Andrews
Maybe you ought to hear what I've got to say first.
I could be of more use to you than you think.


Lalo Salamanca
There ain't nothing that you got, that I need.

Mark Andrews
You sure about that?
Because I hear you're looking for evidence against the Chicken man.


Lalo Salamanca
Hey, what do you know about that?

Mark Andrews
I know that Gustavo Fring is moving behind the cartel.
Looking to run his own operation.


Lalo Salamanca
How do you know this?
Where'd you get your information?

Mark Andrews
Let's just say, I know the architect that built his state of the art,
industrial sized Meth Lab.
People talk, Lalo.


Mark Andrews
I can help you get revenge.
Tell you where it is.
But first, I need a few things from you.
Say you were able to get outside of these walls...
Would you have the people in place to make sure that you disappeared forever?

Lalo Salamanca
What's it to you?


Mark Andrews
Just curious.
A powerful cartel man like yourself,
I'm sure you've got the connections to not only escape prison,
but to stay off the grid as well.

Lalo Salamanca
You're planning an escape?


Mark Andrews
Maybe.
That depends if you've got the resources to make sure we disappear.

Lalo Salamanca
It can be arranged.
But in return, I want Fring.

Mark Andrews
And you'll get him.
As soon as we're outside of these walls.
Not a moment before.


Lalo Salamanca
A get out of jail free card and Fring.
Sounds like quite the bargain.
Done.


Andrews returns back to the yard after meeting with Lalo.


Chris Olave
Bro, tell me I didn't just see you talking to Lalo Salamanca.
Are you crazy?

Mark Andrews
He's coming along.

Chris Olave
To the escape? Hell no!
You've lost your goddamned mind.
Do you know who he is?


Mark Andrews
I know exactly who he is.
But we need him.


Chris Olave
Hey, you know what Fish?
I can't let this slide.
Adding more people makes the escape more dangerous.
We vote no on Lalo.

Mark Andrews
We? Who's we?


Chris Olave
You aren't the only one recruiting, Fish.
I took it upon myself to bring on my own crew.


Mark Andrews
What is this?


Kenneth Bell
Have a seat, Fish.


Mark Andrews
What do you want?

Kenneth Bell
I want your plan.
You're a genius, I'll give you that, Andrews.
But there's one thing you missed.
Chris Olave, he might be on Captain Covfefe's Fantasy Team
and he might be your cellmate.
But you see, Olave used to run witht he Barksdale crew.
Which means he let us in on the plan.
You're taking us with you.


Mark Andrews
You've got to be kidding me.

Peacekeeper
Afraid not, fuck face.
You're bringing us along whether you like it or not.
Because if you don't, we'll snitch to the guards.
I'm sure they won't take kindly to that hole behind your toilet.
And then, after they add 5 years to your bid,
we'll come find you in the yard and shank the ever loving shit out of you.


Kenneth Bell
So what's it going to be, Andrews?
You want to make things difficult?
Or you want to make things easy?
The choice is yours,.

Through 9 weeks, Thor Rocksinson finds himself in 5th place at 5-4.
He returns to MjolCaffrey after a devastating Week 9 loss.


In an effort of pure desperation,
Rocksinson attempts to lift MjolCaffrey, but is unable.


Thor falls to his knees in a moment of weakness.
He is still unworthy.


Jordana Love appears behind Rocksinson


Jordana Love
You can't lift your hammer, can you?


Thor Rocksinson
Oh, Princess. I didn't see you there.
I can lift MjolCaffrey just fine.
I am merely stretching.
It's an Asgardian tradition, we stretch after battle.
And your brother, he did quite well.
I'll be sore for days.


Jordana Love
There's no need to be ashamed.
You've been trying to lift the hammer for 15 minutes now.
That's why you're still in Wakanda.

Thor Rocksinson
What? No, you've misunderstood.
I can lift MjolCaffrey just fine.

Jordana Love
Then do it.


Thor Rocksinson
Ehh... I see no reason to show off.


Jordana Love
Thor Rocksinson, I hope you find peace and become worthy again.
Jeff Wilson Jr. was not your fault.
Besides, everyone deserves a second chance.

---------------------------------------------------
Rocksinson's Season Objective: 
Become Worthy Again (Make The Playoffs)
---------------------------------------------------


Derrick 'M'Baku' Henry
Princess.
You must come with me at once. We have an intruder.

Jordana Love
An invader? How did they get past our shields?

Derrick 'M'Baku' Henry
I'll explain on the way.
Come.


T'Vincent
You are trespassing on foreign land.
You are in Wakanda now and we will not take your intrusion lightly.
As King and Black Manager, I will ask you one time.
Leave in peace or prepare for bloodshed.


Black Baugh
I do not come here seeking war.
Finally, the Black Baugh has come back to this world.
And I only seek refuge for myself and my Fantasy Team.
Kahndaq is no more.
And we are without a home.
I only ask for a safe haven for my people.


T'Vincent
I am afraid we cannot take refugees at this time.
You are an outsider and allowing your team to stay in Wakanda
would put my Fantasy Team at risk.
Wakanda is still fighting for a playoff berth.
Allowing you to stay here jeopardizes our chances of making it.
As King and Fantasy Manager, I cannot help you.
Perhaps you can try the United States,
I hear they welcome all.


Black Baugh
And what about Thor Rocksinson?
Is he not an outsider?


T'Vincent
His stay here is temporary and he will be leaving shortly.
As will you.


Black Baugh
You're playing games, Black Manager.
But I know the truth.

T'Vincent
And what truth is that?


Black Baugh
Vibranium.
You won't take us in because of the resources that you're hiding.


T'Vincent
Prepare the Dora Milaje.


Black Baugh
You want to keep it all for yourself.
It's mighty selfish of you, King.
The sources and technology that you possess,
and you waste its potential by gatekeeping it for yourself.
Do you even realize what you have?


Black Baugh
You may be a King and the Black Manager.
But I... I am a 2x League Champion.
I am a God.
I am... Black Baugh!

---------------------------------------------------
Black Baugh's Season Objective: 
Become the New Ruler of Wakanda
(Beat vincent1469 in all matchups  - including playoffs, if applicable)
---------------------------------------------------


T'Vincent
Stand down, Black Baugh.
I don't want there to be bloodshed...

---------------------------------------------------
T'Vincent's Season Objective:
Defend Wakanda
(Win at least one matchup against #7tormsComing)
---------------------------------------------------


Derrick 'M'Baku' Henry
Can the God man lift his hammer?

Jordana Love
No..

Derrick 'M'Baku' Henry
Then I hope he can fight.


Black Baugh
Oh, there will be blood...


T'Vincent
...then so be it.
WAKANDA FOREVER!
