Scott, Stiles and Hope went to a tattoo shop. Scott wants to make his first tattoo.
"Boy, it's a good thing that you draw me the tattoo." The tattoo artist says sarcastically.
"Hey, Scott? You sure you don't want something like this?" Stiles asks while showing a drawing of Kanima.
"Oh, yeah. And maybe an arrow too." Hope says sarcastically
"I don't know man, you sure about this? I mean these things are pretty permanent, you know?"
"I'm not changing my mind." Scott says
"Okay, but why two bands?" Hope asks
"I just like it."
"Hmm...then maybe I should get also a flower tattoo, since I like flowers. Or a butterfly on the lower back, to look like a slut." Hope says
"Language!" The tattoo artist says.
Hope looks confused at the man.
"Seriously, don't you think your first tattoo should have some sort of meaning, you know, or something?" Stiles asks
"Getting a tattoo means something." Scott answers.
"I don't think that..."
"He's right. Tattooing goes back thousands of years. The tahitian word <<tatua>> means <<to leave a mark>>. Like a rite of passage." The tattoo artist says
"Yeah, you see? He gets it." Scott says
"He's covered in tattoos, Scott, literally." Stiles says
"You ready?" The tattoo artist asks "You ain't got problems with needles, do you?"
"Nope."
"I tend to get a little squeamish though, so..." Stiles starts to say and then he passes out.
"I will take care of him." Hope says
After they finish, they go to the car.
"You okay?" Stiles asks
"We could ask the same thing to you." Hope responds.
"Kind of burns actually." Scott says
"It's pretty normal from what I heard."
"Yeah, but I don't think it's supposed to feel like this. Oh, no! Definetely no! I gotta take this thing off."
"No, no, no, Scott, please stop!" Stiles says
"Whoa! It's red." Hope says
"It healed." Scott says
"Thank God! I hated it." Stiles says
Scott looks at him upset.
"Sorry."
