As Monica enters the gym, she spots Arkken running on the treadmill and walks over to him.
Monica: There you are. It's not often that I find you in here.
Arkken raises an eyebrow, although it is hard to see since he is constantly moving. He hits a button and the treadmill slows to a stop.
Arkken: I wanted to get my blood flowing, as they say, before my match tonight.
Monica: That's what I wanted to ask you about.
He grabs his towel and starts wiping his face.
Arkken: Go ahead, dear Monica.
Monica: Did you really think you had put 2Face out of commission for good?
Arkken: Oh, not at all.
He sends the towel flying and it lands on top of a bench.
Arkken: I expected him to be back much earlier, actually. After a couple of weeks. When he didn't, I started wondering if I had really caused him serious injury, or if it was just a mind game. With the manner of his return last week, it became clear that the injury really kept him out of action for a long time.
He smiles at the thought.
Arkken: He has just revealed tonight why he chose that moment, and I have to applaud him. He didn't care about making a big splash, he just wanted to get me.
Monica: Would you say that you are confident about your chances tonight?
His smile falters.
Arkken: If 2Face thinks he can just get me inside the ring, one on one, and beat on me, then he is very naive. But he is 2Face, and he used to be much more than just a laid back "dude" who caters to the fans. Based on what he did to me last week, and on what he said earlier tonight, I would say that I have awoken another part of him. A much more interesting part of him.
He steps off the treadmill and stands beside Monica.
Arkken: If that is the case, then I cannot say that I am fully confident I will win tonight. I am, however, quite excited.
He walks over to the bench to fetch his towel before leaving the gym.
