The Man In The Hat sits, as usual, at the center of the dais. To his left are Chloe Bennet, Mariska Hargitay, Neve Campbell, Leelee Sobieski, and Avril Lavigne. To his right sit Jane Levy, Britney Spears, Grace Park, Jewel, and Pink.
Man In The Hat (smiling): "I'll take questions. Cable Boy. Go!"
HBO Reporter: "Obviously, a big win for Front Street considering this year's PPV struggles..."
Man In The Hat: "It's a big win on its own merit. This is a girl, Holt, who's shown she can fight. And, she showed it again tonight. Beat a girl like that, no matter what the back story, no matter what the venue, it's big. This was big. Cable Boy II, talk to me!"
Showtime Reporter: "There were some rough moments..."
Man In The Hat: "Yes, there were, and you expect that. Again, this is a good fighter. You aren't gonna run roughshod over a girl like that. Tess, go ahead, dear."
Tess: "You said a Levy win wouldn't be an upset..."
Man In The Hat (nodding): "And, I was right. It wasn't. This was a good fight between good fighters and no result was going to be an upset. We thought Jane could win coming in and she didn't disappoint us. Smackeroo. We're going to dinner. Take us there!"
Reporter: "I want to expand on an earlier question. Jane had some troubles. How concerning is that?"
Man In The Hat (putting his arm around Chloe): "What we have on this dais is a bunch of management people, Jane, who fought tonight, and Chloe. And, if you're wondering why Chloe is here, that question you just asked is why. One thing the lovely Ms. Bennet has shown an ability to do again and again is work her way out of trouble. And, that's important, because, in big fights, you ARE going to get in trouble from time to time. And you have to find a way to win. You don't win any trophies in The Majors for sweeping a second-division team in June. You win 'em by getting down 3-1 to the Orioles and coming back to win three straight like Starg and the Bucs did. You don't win the O'Brien by beating the Pelicans in January. You do it by sinking the hook shot that took down the Celtics on the parquet. You don't win the Lombardi by beating the Browns in September. You do it by coming back from 25 down in the second half. You win championships by coming up big in big games. And, you win titles around here by coming up big in big fights. Chloe's done that. And, tonight, Jane did that. Now, I'm not sayin' Ms. Levy's a champion yet. But, what I saw tonight is an ability to do something champions have to do. And, I'm pretty happy about that. Now, it's dinner time. Tess! Smackey! Limo!"
