{Scene Opens: Sheraton Hotel: Portland, Oregon}
The scene opens with Dead Eye entering his hotel room in Portland, where he is for his PURE Title match with Carmen Cambridge for WWA's #CloisterofTrials. From the time he turned his phone on in the cab at the airport until opening the door to said room, he had felt his phone vibrate quite a few times. He figured it was just his phone catching up with missed messages and notifications from being off during the flight. He set his bags down and turned on the lamp next to his bed. He plopped himself onto said bed and flicked his phone screen to life. The first thing that caught his attention was several missed calls from his mother. She'd always been a worry-wart, checking in on him to make sure his flights went well and whatnot. She'd previously not made more than one attempt to call, knowing her son would call back as soon as he could. Dead Eye quickly hit the button to return the phone call.
Sandra James:
How was...your...flight?
Dead Eye:
It was aight. What's wrong, ma?
Sandra:
I don't want to startle you, and I don't want you to drop everything...
Dead Eye:
Okay...
Sandra:
Your dad's in the hospital, Charles.
Dead Eye:
What?! What happened?
Sandra:
I'm waiting to hear from the doctor. Your dad's work called me because they took him to the ER because he was acting funny.
Dead Eye:
You know, when I left there, something felt funny to me. I couldn't put my finger on it, but pops was a little different.
Sandra:
Look, I don't want you to worry. He's in good hands. I need you to keep your concentration on that match. I'm sure your dad wouldn't want you worrying about him. Just pray and keep your mind on that title match, okay?
Dead Eye:
I'll try, but you got ma heart goin' 100 right nah.
Sandra:
Just stay calm. I'll call you when I hear something. I need to go back in the waiting room. I had to step out because the reception was bad.
Dead Eye:
Okay, love you, ma. Tell pops I love him, too, when you can see him.
Sandra:
I will. I love you, too, Charles.
The call ends, and Dead Eye texts Brian Brown and asks him to meet him at a gym nearby.
