NARRATOR
Welcome to PokéPawn, the one and only pawn shop where trainers from all backgrounds come to buy, sell, and trade their rare and precious items. Here is Rick, the owner, a man with an eye for unique collectibles and a sharp business sense, his son, Sonny, an energetic young expert always on the lookout for the next big find, and their employee Chumley. Once again, they want to make as much money as possible and are ready to do anything to achieve their goal.

Here, you never know who will walk through the door, but one thing is certain: every item has a story, and everyone has a price.

INT. POKÉPAWN SHOP - Day
A young random girl enters the shop. The shop's bell rings as the young girl approaches the counter where Sonny is.

RANDOM YOUNG GIRL
Hello sir, I am a random young girl and I came to sell this Adventure guide. Can you give me an estimate?

The scene cuts to the random young girl, who speaks directly to the camera.

RANDOM YOUNG GIRL
(Radiant with joy)
Today I'm so excited because I'm here to sell this guide that my grandfather left me before he... you know... died like an idiot, so rather than letting it gather dust in my attic and leaving it to my kids who probably won't give a damn and will try to sell it, I decided to do it myself. I don't know how much I could get for it but I know it has great value to me and I'll miss it. He was my only and best friend.

Back to the scene in the shop. Sonny takes the ABC Adventure guide and examines it with growing interest.

SONNY
(Calmly)
Yes, of course, right away. That's what I'm here for. Oh... yes, this is very interesting...

Suddenly, Rick throws the guide on the ground, then picks it up and starts tearing it into pieces in front of the stunned eyes of the random young girl.

SONNY
(Furious)
Are you kidding me? Do you think I have time to waste examining your shitty guide? No, I don't have time to waste examining your shitty guide. You deserve me to throw my shit in your face.

RANDOM YOUNG GIRL
(Desperate)
But... it's a super rare guide, my grandfather told me that...

SONNY
This is the last time I see you hanging around the shop with your shit. Next time I find you, I'll shit down your neck. Now get out! And quickly before I get angry and pull down my pants.

The random young girl, completely stunned, rushes out of the shop, crying profusely.

The scene cuts to Sonny speaking to the camera while counting bills he took from the cash register.

SONNY
I don't like this kind of shit. Seriously, people think we have time to waste with their shit, haha. Get out of here with your shit, they'd be better off going back to their sad lives and dying alone with their shit.

INT. POKEPAWN SHOP - BACK ROOM - Day
Rick and Chumley are sitting in a black leather couch. Rick is pretending to stab Chumley's big belly with a knife.

RICK
(Smiling)
Haha, I killed you, Chumley, hehe, I won.

Sonny enters the room, looking worried and exasperated.

SONNY
Damn it! Another random young girl tried to sell me her shit.

RICK
(Annoyed)
Again? That's the third time this week.

CHUMLEY
(With a mocking smile)
Hoho, a random girl, what a pain!

RICK
(Crosses his arms and looks up at Sonny)
And what was it?
