[SCENE OPENS: LOVE ARENA – NIGHTFALL, STARS TWINKLE TO THE BEAT]

Antoinette sits high on her glowing crystal throne. Her RC Coin glows gold. The crowd of ancestors is now joined by spirit animals, all watching the showdown. A saxophone plays a sexy “this about to be a moment” tune.

—

DJ CHUCK CHILLOUT (hyping the crowd):

“ALRIGHT NOW! Give it up for our newest contestant… MR. KILLMONGER HIMSELF…
MICHAEL. B. JORDAN!!”

—

[Michael B. Jordan enters slow motion style, in a fitted suit that knows its assignment. He walks like he got sage in his socks and a love letter in his heart.]

ANTOINETTE (eyes wide, sipping hibiscus tea):
“Well damn. Y’all didn’t say he was bringing healing AND dimples.”

ROUND 3: THE COMPASSION CHALLENGE – WHO CAN HANDLE HER HEART?

MICHAEL B. JORDAN (calm, deep voice):

“Antoinette, I’m not here to impress you. I’m here to join you. Build generational wealth with you. Pray with you. Laugh ‘til we cry. And never dim your light.”

He holds up a glowing RC Coin and presses it to his chest.
The ancestors faint.
Flavor Flav’s clock explodes.

CHRIS BROWN (sweating):

“Wait, wait… he rehearsed this. That was a monologue from Wifey Chronicles Volume 3!”

—

IDRIS ELBA (with his accent on 1000):

“Well then… I suppose we’ll have to settle this the old-fashioned way. A Love-Off. Round table. Tea and truth only.”

—

BONUS ROUND: THE LOVE-OFF – TEA & TRUTH

The men sit in a circle. Antoinette’s on a floating platform with her ancestors and Beyoncé as her spirit advisor.

QUESTION 1:
“What would you do if I lost it all tomorrow?”

MICHAEL B. JORDAN:
“Then we start over. Together. I’m not here for your crown, I’m here for your soul.”

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE:
“I’d call Timbaland. We’d make a comeback song. Probably win a Grammy.”

CHRIS BROWN:
“Girl I’d tattoo your name on my soul.”

FLAVOR FLAV:
“First I’d ask—do we really lose it all? Or is the RC Coin in us the whole time?”

—

ANTOINETTE (laughs, wiping a tear):
“Now THAT’S what I’m talkin’ about!”

—

GRAND DECISION MOMENT

Lights dim. The RC Coin floats. The men stand lined up like a royal R&B military. The ancestors hold up score cards: Beyoncé gives a 10, Clarence gives a wink, Jesus nods.

ANTOINETTE (to Michael):
“You came in last, but turned the whole throne upside down. You’re fine, you’re focused, and most importantly—you didn’t fold under pressure.”

She hands him a golden RC Coin Ring. The others gasp.

ANTOINETTE (playfully):
“This ain’t marriage… this is an assignment. Let’s build the new world, King.”

TAGLINE (VO by Larenz Tate):

“When the Queen’s love is real—only the healed can stay. RC Coin. Love. Loyalty. Legacy.”
