Chapter 79 - Caught

Bandeer, in the main hall, with his cigarette, as usual.

Greg comes into the restroom.

Bandeer (He's going in there a little more often than anyone else)

Time to check in

Greg is there, a tile is not in the place on the floor, a note in his hand when he steps in.

Bandeer: Kukuku~ Knew you were up to something.

Greg: . . . I... As I thought...

Bandeer: Right? It was too suspicious.

Greg: Okay, what do you want?

Bandeer: So you are teaming with Oli right? Kukuku~

Greg: What? Haha, oh I thought you got me, but no, I'm not-

bandeer: Quit lying, I know you do. I have already met with him here last time.

Greg: That's impossible because-

Bandeer shows up as evidence, claiming his truth, a tablet, not his one.

Greg: That's... Oli's...?

Bandeer: Kukuku~

Greg: HOW!?

Bandeer: Not so loud, Greg, others might hear you outside. I found that the weaker one between you two is Oli, so I played against him.

Greg: Played? Wait what?

Bandeer: Kuku~ Well it was not really a game, but you can call it that. I gave him 2 options. One, he gives me his tablet, or two, I will tell everyone that you two are teaming up.

Greg: And he chose the first one?

Bandeer: Obviously Kukukuku~ After all, making all this effort to hide your alliance, it can only mean you do it because it's important to not be found out. Even though I don't know what those messages say. I caught you. 

Greg: So what now? What is your plan?

Bandeer: I just wanna have fun, and I'm certainly doing that right now. But wait until I tell you that... I went through Oli's tablet, on the videos as well~

Greg: If my plan is getting ruined by you... I will make sure you will pay! Bandeer!

Bandeer: Kukuku! I wonder why you two made that video, you know, if any referee finds it, you are eliminated because of breaking the rule of no violence. Maybe... To make sure you keep your words to Oli?

Greg: Tch-

Bandeer: But don't worry Greg, I don't want bad for you, Kuku! You helped me in the second game remember? It's not like I need to take revenge on you.

Greg: Then what do you want? You wanna play?

Bandeer: Play? Well, as I said, I'm just looking for fun, there is no way for me to win the show probably anyway, but no. I'm not here to play with you, though, trust me, you better place that paper and tile back where it was, fast!

Greg while he does as Bandeer says: You are right, someone could walk in anyway.

Bandeer: Not just anyone, there is a specific person who will be walking in... Kukukku~

The doorknob turns.

Greg (A specific... person?)

Bandeer: I could also say... The timing is perfect.

The door opens, and he steps in, then closes back the door.

The one standing there is...

Todor: What are you two doing here?

Greg shocked (TODOR! Not good! I must hide the reason we are here, just as well as the paper I'm standing on as well! He would probably even find out how to read the message! Please Oli, don't walk in!)

Bandeer: KUKUKU! Is something the matter, Greg?

Greg: Why is he here?

Bandeer: You know he's here because of me?

Todor: Yes, I'm here because of Bandeer.

Bandeer: Ku... ku... You could have at least played along a little.

Todor: Useless. You knocked on my door, I checked out and saw you walking in here and not coming out.

Greg: So you planned it Bandeer, you can tell now what you actually want!

Bandeer: Kuku! Okay, straight to the point then! I want you two to... play a game!

Todor: Not interested.

Greg (He's actually said that right away!!?)

Bandeer: Uhh! Come on! You don't even know what the stakes are! It's about crucial information, secrets about Greg's strategy and plans in the show!

Todor: It doesn't matter.

Bandeer: WHA- What do you mean by that?!

Todor: He's in checkmate already, he has no room to work with. Plus I know he works with Oli.

Greg (HE KNOWS!?!?)

Bandeer: What!? You gotta be kidding me!

Todor: Yeah, I'm kidding, I just had a feeling, but you just proved my intuition was right.

Bandeer: You... Didn't... Actually know?

Todor: Of course not.

Greg (Todor... Is simply playing with Bandeer right now... He had a feeling of what that important information could be and played on it to make Bandeer reveal the information without the need of the two of us to play)

Todor is about to leave.

Bandeer: W- Wait!

Todor: What now?

Bandeer: Kukuku~ I still have something that could be interesting for you. Shows up Oli's tablet

Greg: That can't be! You wouldn't do it!

Todor: What's with that?

Bandeer: Kukuku! I got Oli's tablet which has a video on it.

Turns on the video, it's clear, Greg and Oli in the same restroom of where they are right now, Greg punching Oli, obviously breaking a law of the show.

Bandeer: Todor... If you would decide to play... and you win... I will give you Oli's tablet. What do you say?

Greg (No way... Please... Don't!)

Todor: Now that's something. Alright, I'll play.

Greg (No way!)

Bandeer: That's what I wanted to hear! Kukukuku~ Then I will be the referee of this match alright? As a professional gambler I would say I'm worthy to be!

Greg: This is not fair... If I lose, then I will practically get eliminated, but if I win, Todor will not be eliminated.

Todor: No one said it would be fair, since this game is not an official match, it does not need to be fair, not even on the surface.

Greg (Damn, he got me... It was also a very weak try from me)

Bandeer: Kukuku! This will be interesting! Let me state the rules of the game then!
