Connor looks out at the cityscape
Connor:"Yeah, I learned what scares me..."

Alexis: And what is that?
Natalie looks mildly disappointed the show is over already, and goes in her suite to go over moves for the tournament.

Alex applies more pressure to Nicholas' arms....effortlessly.
Alex: You're sorry? ..... but I'm an EDWARDS for a reason..... should I feel sorry for this INSECT that has chosen to challenge me? Or should I show him what a mistake that choice was? That's what you think it means to be one of us isn't it?

Connor:"That somebody with a mind set like that is going to be the one to one day lead this family..."

Re: A Glimpse of the Future....
Alexis: A mindset like that.... We haven't decided yet which one of you will be the Legacy. What mindset do you think the Legacy should have?

Connor:"I don't know...Maybe wanting to make a better name for the family instead of considering everybody else an insect. Somebody who knows the true meaning of a fight and that more often then not taking the fight CAN be the last option, instead of the first..."

Alexis walks next to Connor and looks out over the balcony.
Alexis: What would you consider the true meaning of a fight then?

Re: A Glimpse of the Future....
Alex throws Nicholas to the floor and pins him down with his foot.
Alex: You couldn't be further from the truth if you tried.....
We are the last of an ancient warrior class.... we dedicate ourselves to honing our bodies and our minds..... we dedicate ourselves to a neverending quest for perfection.... so that we may protect those that we love. We test our skills in honourable combat ..... against worthy opposition.... not for glory..... but to test ourselves.... to push ourselves even harder.... it is not the victory we cherish.... but the challenge.
....That honour....... that privelege..... was stolen from me...... and seeing you abuse it.
He is trying to hold back tears.
..... hurts me more than you will ever know son.
He releases Nicholas.
....your Uncle will deal with you.... I don't know where to begin.....

Nicholas looks hurt and angry....and storms out of the suite. He heads downstairs to the gym and starts running on the treadmill....
Nicholas: Un...fuckin'....believable....
Nicholas: Un...fuckin'....believable....

Connor shrugs
Connor:"I dunno...I think any fight worth fighting has meaning behind it, you know? And I don't mean for a win column or a notch on the belt. A true fight is for something you hold dear, something bigger then yourself; maybe even bigger then your comfort zone and your own personal beliefs. And that everytime you are in a fight, you represent more then yourself, or this family...you represent the past, present, and future of it...So win or lose, the reason why you fight...Or, maybe why I have yet to fight...is a reflection of everything in that person."

Alexis looks over at her oldest child and smiles.
Alexis: If that is what you believe... then why allow your brother to fight for so much less? And if you truly believe that to be the way of the Legacy and the Edwards....
She taps the pocket where his bulging wallet is.
Alexis: Then why did you bet on your brother's way?
Natalie pokes her head out of her room.
Natalie: Dad, what's wrong?

Re: A Glimpse of the Future....
Connor:"Like he would ever listen to me...And I didn't bet on the Legacy, I bet on the better fighter in the match. I wasn't about to do something stupid like bet on the half drunk moron who considered him a fighter that faced Nicholas. It wasn't so much a bet as much as it was a guarantee. I know an opportunity when I see one..."
Connor sighs
"The truth is...I'm not sure if I want to be the Legacy."
he looks out past the city
"It's a nice night..."

Alexis shakes her head.
Alexis: You still have so much growing up to do.

Alexis: You have yet to fully settle on who you are.
Natalie walks over and perches on the couch.
Natalie: Nick thinks you want him to go out and prove Edwards superiority... he got another title for his wall.

Connor:"I know I come from a complex family line...on both sides...I...know I want to do the right thing, but that isn't always easy...I guess maybe I'm still working on who I am...I know what I don't want to be; if that counts.."

Alexis: That'll help narrow it down. What don't you want to be?
Natalie: But you want us to prove that we're Edwards....

Re: A Glimpse of the Future....
Alex: No sweetie..... you are Edwards' ...you don't need to prove that..... I'm just like any other parent.... trying to teach the most precious things in my life right from wrong.... try and teach them an approach to life.... an approach to life that will make them happy, and healthy, and successful..... you are naturally gifted honey..... but those gifts need focused..... they need to be used responsibly..... not just for your sake..... but for your family. Do you understand?

Re: A Glimpse of the Future....
Natalie: I guess so. I don't know exactly what mine are yet though....
Alexis: There are times when all of you disappoint us, but you're not perfect, and we don't expect you to be. You are not a disappointment.
