BXBX NOVEL Chapter 389 - Plans
Nodding his head at them, Sam tapped at his Surface on the dining table, while saying, "Country I sent out their request because some of the scenes were supposedly shot there."
"But it was," Kyle said, puzzled, "I mean, technically, as some of the flashback scenes of John Wick 2 were put in but the latest one wasn\'t in Country I at all."
"So doesn\'t that mean it wasn\'t?" Xing Han pointed out.
"Strictly speaking, you\'re right but since it\'s shown, it would be?" Kyle thought about it and then stopped when Sam cleared his throat again.
"Frog in your throat, Sam?" Kyle couldn\'t help but ask with a grin.
Sam rolled his eyes, "If you stop interrupting me, I wouldn\'t need to."
Kyle just grinned wider, while saying, "Oh, silly me. Carry on."
"Considering the movie hadn\'t been released yet, it\'s only natural that Chad would take up this opportunity to market it in Country I now, wouldn\'t he? After all, Country I was one of its film locations before," Sam said.
"Also, there can\'t be too many interviews regarding it for fear of revealing too much of the plot. They want to still create the hype so this is one of the methods to gain more traction."
"Kyle is an unknown and though Keanu may be a big pull, some may not watch because of this unknown factor."
"I get it," Xing Han said with a sigh, "It would have been nice to be how it was with the Ellen Show. She was the best since she had talked about the movie and had fun games."
"Well, not everyone is an Ellen," muttered Sam.
"Anyway, while there\'s no Keanu, your co-star Harold will be there."
"Ah yes. Harold. The one who played my mentor in the film," Kyle said, "That makes sense. They can\'t have too many spoilers so the other co-stars would most likely reveal too much of the plot. A mentor, on the other hand, is only expected."
"Yes, indeed," Sam replied.
"But he\'s old," Xing Han said, "I mean, it won\'t be a teen game show like it was previously. So would this be a proper interview?"
"Yes," Sam answered, "Just a short 30minute interview, in the normal \'minimalist\' type of background. You know, no prop or backdrop. Just you guys on this chair, possibly a table to lean on and that\'s it."
"Again, nothing like the comfy chairs of the Ellen Show," lamented Xing Han.
Sam rolled his eyes, "Stop comparing to Ellen! Nothing can compare to Ellen."
"True," Xing Han replied, rolling about on the bed again.
"We will arrive a day before the session," Sam went on, "And will be staying an extra three days after to \'sightsee\'. Edward is already in place."
"Oh ya," Xing Han said, "You\'re doing some stuff for Nitocris at Country I, huh?"
"Yes," Kyle confirmed, "Edward will disguise himself as me and go around sightseeing with you guys while I do what needs to be done."
"Man," Xing Han wailed, "We won\'t be going around together?"
"No," Kyle said, "But can you treat Edward like you do with me? You have to be natural, okay?"
Xing Han looked at Kyle and thought hard, "I don\'t know if I can, honestly. I mean, you\'re you. Edward is Edward."
"But you are you," Kyle said, "As long as you\'re comfortable and friendly with him, it\'ll be enough. Country I doesn\'t know how ... erm, well ... "
"How much of a BFF-complex you have," Kay finished with a laugh.
"Hey!" Xing Han protested, "It is not a BFF-complex. It is BFF-love, thank you very much."
"After the interview, Edward and I will exchange positions," Kyle said to Xing Han, "So that should help you get more comfortable around him when I\'m not around."
"Huh? You mean, you\'re not going to be with us at all?" Xing Han asked, completely surprised.
"No," Kyle said, "Edward\'s room has all of the stuff that I need for my mission in his room, so it\'ll be too much of a hassle to go from one room to another all the time. Plus, doing so would increase the risk of being discovered."
"Fine," Xing Han replied with a sigh, "But I\'ll miss you!!"
"Oh please, Xing Han," Kyle said with ruffling his hair, "It\'s only going to be three days."
"THREE DAYS?!" Xing Han wailed, looking like he was ready to roll about dramatically.
"I\'ll get you pork chops for dinner while he\'s gone," Kay said.
"Ooooo! Pork chops!!" Xing Han shouted, his face brightening up.
[You got replaced by pork chops, dear brother]
Kyle laughed.
