An O.R.D.R.L.I feed captures the gorilla position following Heladas' attack and escape.
GM Jeffrey Campbell: He disappeared?!
Producer Palesa Jeyi: They've got flashlights and cameras under the ring. Take a look; he's gone.
Campbell (leaning over her shoulder): Bloody, black magic bastard. I swear on me life, Shabani's gonna-
His phone rings. He pulls it out and laughs.
GM Shabani: Hello, Jeffrey?
Campbell: Nalah! (shares a look with Jeyi) Was just havin' a yarn about ya.
Shabani (on speaker): I want you to know, right now, I did not sanction this attack. Nor did I know it was going to happen.
Campbell: Strewth, seriously? All that yakking about 'finding a victim' went right over your head, did it?

DS: She's right, you know.
SDS: Quiet.
Campbell: A bit flat out, cobber, actually runnin' my show, ya know?

SDS: Okay, that was a good one.
Shabani: Very mature. How is Mr Vités doing?
Campbell: Wouldn't you like to know?

Jeyi (shakes head): She's loving this.

Campbell: Bloody hell...

Campbell (sighs and looks up): Thank you, Palesa. I really needed someone to say it out loud.
Jeyi (smiles and turns away in her seat): You're welcome.
He gives the back of her afro a side-eye before leaving.
Campbell: Tell 'em to wrap up the search and give Daryl the rest of the lowdown.
Jeyi: Will do.
