After stealing the attention of the entire set and somehow getting a role, Wallace walked over to the pair, beginning to talk. 

"You two have any luck?" 

"Not exactly, seems like Lucas Lee was busy with some other scandal when we tried talking to him." Ramona explained, sighing in annoyance at the lack of progress.

"I heard, seems like he's balls deep in a sweaty affair with someone on the production, any clue who the lucky lady might be?" Wallace explained, Negascott's mind wandering slightly at the way Wallace described it.

Ramona's voice coaxed him back to reality. "Not the mystery we're trying to solve, and on that note, I think we have an opening now. Wish us luck." Ramona unzipped her bag, placing it on the floor and Negascott hopped in.

"Hey, you could always wish upon a star!" Wallace called after them, Ramona skating away. 

"We'll think about it!" Negascott called after him, a smile forming on his face as he thought about getting to see Lucas Lee again.

"That star being me." Wallace quietly stated, Negascott and Ramona too far away to hear him.

...

Ramona knocked on this door much adamantly this time "It's Ramona"

A voice came from the other side of the door. "Err, I'm reading the script, come back later."

"I'm not falling for that; I know you have a girl in there. Can we just get this over with?" Ramona insisted.

A sigh was heard. "Alright fine, it's open."

Ramona stepped inside and Negascott hopped out of her bag onto the floor. "Oh, no girl?" he looked around, it was cleaner than he'd thought it'd be.

"Did you know I'm in this?" Lucas began, standing up and walking to the other side of the room.

"Yeah? You're the lead." Ramona said somewhat matter of fact.

"No, there's a Lucas Lee character, Scott tricks him into grinding to death, I'd never fall for that, what kind of idiot would write this?" A quiet sound was heard outside as if someone hit a metal can, everyone ignored it. Ramona skated over to a seat in front of the couch and sat down.

"Does it matter? We're here to ask the questions, did you or did you not take Scott Pilgrim? We know he's alive." Negascott crossed his arms and paced over to the couch, plopping down casually.

"You think I'd kidnap some Canadian loser and fake his death?" Lucas Lee countered.

"You did willingly join a league of evil exes." Ramona brought up, eyeing him suspiciously.

"Ha! That? It's just branding, we aren't really evil." Lucas Lee shrugged.

Ramona chuckled, standing up and skating to another point in the room. "I know your reputation, you're a quintessential Hollywood bad-boy."

"Even if I did want to kidnap him, I would have been too busy." Lucas continued, leading up to his reasoning. 

But at that moment the lights in the trailer abruptly shut off and the ground rumbled agressively.

"An earthquake? In Toronto?" Ramona's eyes widened.

 Negascott looked around confused. "Nah.. it couldn't be.."

"No, It's something worse." Lucas groaned. Lights flickered on the edge of the room, each one only lasting less than half a second, they danced in the reflection of Negascott's silvery wristbands.

"Paparazzi.

 Lucas Lee hopped over the table and shoved Ramona and Negascott out of the way.
