Transcripts - Forever Dreaming

"Fugitive's back," from Julie.

We were supposed to be
celebrating a new owner.

Um...

It would've been nice
to have a hot owner, but...

She was outbid.

APRIL: We were all excited about having

a longtime Fugitive fan buy the team,

even if that fan was
not your typical investor type.

Crew of a bunch of, you know,
a bunch of single guys.

Yeah, lot of single guys.

APRIL: With her, we'd be
making our own decisions,

but that's not how it played out.

Uh, we got a call.

Blue Wing Capital came back
with a higher offer

that Julie, as a solo investor,
couldn't match.

Look at this, she sent us hot sauce.

She sent us Patrón.
Like, she f*cking got us.

You know what Blue Wing Capital got us?

Uh, they-they made a donation
on our behalf

to a children's hospital.

We're f*cked.

- It might not be that bad.
- It will be that bad,

- Nightfall, it will be.
- Will it?

Yeah, do you remember
when those mouth breathers

tried to buy Dignitas and change
their name to Capital One Falcons?

Let's pour one out.
Pour one out for the dead.

Who's gonna do some a**l Angst with me?

- Oh... [SPUTTERS]
- Whoever wants to join me.

- It's a little early.
- I can't.

My doctor says I can't go hotter
than Tabasco anymore.

- CREAMCHEESE: Fine.
- You know I want to.

I'll do it alone.

To what could have been.

Yum. Yum.

That's really good.

It's like kind of smoky, you know.

You know what?

[SNIFFLES]

- APRIL: You okay?
- It's like... Yeah, I'm good.

It's super good. [EXHALES SHARPLY]

Julie knows her hot sauces,
I'll say that much.

- Do you want another one?
- After... No,

'cause the aftertaste
is kind of the best part,

so I don't want to
drown that out. [MUTTERS]

Can I please have a glass of milk?

Can I please get a-a glass of milk?

Look at this.

The only reason they paid so much was...

because they wanted Organizm.

This guy says,

"The only reason
Fugitive would want Creamcheese

is if Organizm was holding a bagel."

[LAUGHS]

Julie loved me.

The only reason Blue Wing outbid her

is because they wanted him.

He's boring, and now he's the face
of the organization.

Like, no offense,

but he has a terrible personality

and, like, no sex appeal at all.

And where does that leave me, you know?

[SCOFFS] Where does that leave you?

I mean, come on, they start making cuts,

- I'm the first to go.
- Yeah, that's true.

Let's make it impossible
for them to get rid of us.

You know, let's keep winning games.

Let's win the championship.

Let's watch them try and fire
and rebuild a championship team.

♪ ♪

ANNOUNCER: Fugitive is gonna
take the Nexus!

It's all over.

We'll probably win seven championships.

MAN: A two-year, $ million contract?

WOMAN: He's gonna be the youngest
pro player in North America.

MAN : Creamcheese is a choke artist.

CREAMCHEESE: This would've
been the perfect setup to wombo combo.

MAN : Is it time for Fugitive
to move on from Creamcheese?

MAN : Something is brutally wrong

- in this team.
- MAN : This season will make

or break the Fugitive franchise.

♪ ♪

CAPTAINFLOWERS: It's playoffs, baby!

We are ready to go,
and things are in full swing

here for our first match.

GABRIELLA: The playoffs are different.

Teams are tested
in these best-of-five series.

So, while Fugitive had a strong

summer split, you know,
third best record overall,

I think a lot of us still question

how this team would hold up
against postseason competition.

CAPTAINFLOWERS: We kick off here
with fourth seed Fugitive

going up against fifth seed,

- Dignitas.
- Let's go.

It's gonna be a good match today.

I'm really curious.

Can Creamcheese and Organizm
get together on the same page?

APRIL: Going into playoffs,

nobody would say that Organizm
and Creamcheese were friends,

but at least there was some respect.

♪ ♪

Cream respected Organizm's
mechanical skill.

Organizm respected Cream's
map awareness and sh*t calling.

- Feeling good?
- Oh, yeah.

PAUL: Sometimes, teams
with people who hate each other

can actually make it work.

You look at, uh, Vin Diesel
and The Rock as an example.

They famously never got along

but still continued to
make movies with each other.

[APPLAUSE]

When it came to the Dignitas matchup

all the attention was on Organizm,

not only because it was
his first playoff series,

but because he was up against
the guy he replaced in Frugger.

RAZLEPLASM: The big story here.

Former Fugitive AD Carry Frugger

going up against his big rival,
Organizm.

Like, Creamcheese knows exactly
how to get in the spotlight.

Before the game, he tweeted:

_

And to his credit, he backed it up.

_

CAPTAINFLOWERS: Ulti over
the wall. Organizm's found him.

Flash for the follow.

Frugger wants help.

Organizm's got his number,
and he's sh*t through the heart.

There we f*cking go. Oh, my God.

Jesus.

GABRIELLA: Everyone on Dignitas

was trying to get at Org,

but nobody could get past Creamcheese.

It was kind of amazing to see,
to be honest.

_

_

Wow.

It was a great series for Fugitive,

but it was really more than that.

That's what I'm talking about.
Just move as a team.

This was the first time
we had seen real synergy

between their bot lane.

They were finally starting
to play to their ceiling.

- Easy, easy, easy.
- Easy. Easy. f*cking easy.

Let's go!

That's what I'm f*cking talking about.

Good sh*t right there. Good sh*t.

- Bro. Insane, right?
- That was crazy sh*t, dude.

Bro, that tweet was just disrespectful.

Oh, I'm sorry, man. I had to do it,

and it was true, too, right?

- We ended up...
- Hey, yo, hey.

Hey, your piercing arrows
were impossible to dodge, bro.

- Thank you.
- That was so dope.

He's so good.

- That's crazy.
- Yeah, no, he's... pretty good.

- Pretty good guy, yeah.
- Top notch, dude, top notch.

Hey, well...

- Yeah, yeah, for sure.
- [STAMMERS] So, yeah.

- KYLE: Hey.
- Hey.

- CREAMCHEESE: Good game.
- KYLE: Sorry again.

Good to see you.
You did great out there.

FRUGGER: Yeah, no, I could see

how they were starting
to work better together.

You know, it-it made me think
of, uh, me and Cream

back in the day. The sh*t we did.

NEWSWOMAN: What is going
through your brain right now

- after such a resounding...
- CREAMCHEESE: "Uh,"

"Creamcheese just told me what to do,

and I did the cleanup job."

ORGANIZM: Overall,
I'm happy with my performance.

I mean, come on,
he's playing really well.

ORGANIZM: Obviously, the other team...

- ORGANIZM: Yo! What up?
- RUDY JR.: Player of the Series!

- [CHEERING, APPLAUSE]
- What's going on?

- KYLE: Let's see it.
- [APRIL LAUGHS]

APRIL: I've never seen you stand
like that in your...

RUDY JR.: Look just like you. [LAUGHS]

APRIL: Do-do that right now.

[ALL LAUGH]

Hey, uh, Kyle, April,
hope y'all don't mind.

I need to steal Organizm for a bit

'cause, uh, I was kicking it with the

boys from Blue Wing in the VIP room

and they brought their boys from Puma,

and they really want to meet you, man.

- Oh, with us, too?
- Ooh, Puma.

No, they was just asking for Org.

Oh. Good for you, bro.

RUDY JR.: You know, but they got...
they got big plans. That's cool?

- Yeah, do whatever you need to.
- RUDY JR.: All right. Cool.

I'm-a bring him right back.

- Ready? Come on.
- ORGANIZM: Yeah.

- Come on.
- All right, see you, guys.

Congratulations, you guys.

- Good work tonight.
- Thank you.

- RUDY JR.: Fugitive!
- CREAMCHEESE: Um,

- can I ask...
- I know.

...why Puma would be meeting with
Organizm and not with the whole team?

'Cause that makes
no f*cking sense, right?

- It's-it's... It's nothing.
- Look, if they're reaching out

to Rudy directly, I... There's
nothing I can do about it.

Okay, well, we got
to figure out what the

f*ck's going on with Blue Wing Capital.

APRIL: You think I haven't been trying?

- They just dodge all my calls.
- [GROANS] So cringe.

APRIL: They-they-they just...
They avoid all my questions.

The only time I've heard
from any live human

was when somebody called
asking if Organizm

could speak at their pro-am
golf tournament or some sh*t.

CREAMCHEESE: Are you se...

- Have they heard him speak?
- I don't...

CREAMCHEESE: He's
a terrible public speaker.

He's gonna do it, right?

What even is pro-am golf?
Like, that's not...

- I cannot believe this.
- I don't know.

- APRIL: I guarantee you...
- CREAMCHEESE: It's the Organizm

show already,
and they've only owned the team

- for, like, less than a week.
- APRIL: I know.

RUDY JR.: All right, so,
you about to meet Pat.

That's the tall one.
And then there's Kip.

He British or Australian or something,
but he be saying "bloke" a lot.

Hit 'em with the Elmore charm
now. Let's go, Pat!

Hey, what's going on?
What's going on, Puma?

CREAMCHEESE: The difference
between me and Organizm

is O-Organizm... like, Organizm,
the idea, is super cool.

He's, like, this enigmatic
rookie player,

young guy, who's incredible.

Percy,

the guy behind Organizm,
is just not that cool.

He just, you know,
he peed in jars, you know?

You can tell, he's the type
of kid who did not

have a lot of friends in high school.

Which is fine, I just... That Trevor,

me, had a lot of friends.

- Yo. What's up?
- Oh, there he is.

Here comes trouble.

Hey, um, tonight,
if you see, um, Mike Bertha,

you tell him he owes me
bucks, though, okay?

Yeah, of course. I love that.

Make ten times as much as that dude

and still shake him down for $ .

It's the principle of the thing.

Yeah, well, it's f*cking savage.

- You excited?
- Oh, I'm just excited

- to drive in the Porsche.
- Yep.

KYLE: You know, as Cream's
gotten more successful,

the chip on his shoulder
has gotten a lot bigger.

Um, I mean, when we were
in high school together,

I mean, he was just a fun-loving kid.

He was really comfortable
in his own skin.

APRIL: You know, he was just
this goofy, funny kid

that everybody pretty much liked.

CREAMCHEESE: People say high
school's a hard time for them.

It was a breeze for me.

I was friends with everyone.
I was friends with the jocks,

I was friends with the nerds.

I was, I was basically both

in one, a lethal combination.

It's funny, I feel like, you know,
everybody knows me as Creamcheese.

You know, but, like, sometimes,

it's nice just to be Trevor, you know?

Old Trevor.

I mean, Old Trevor who drives a Porsche.

' Porsche Taycan with upgraded trim

and -inch rims, right?

Ten years, dude. That's f*cking crazy.

Oh, my God, Nikki, what's up?

- _
- How's it going?

- Pretty good.
- _

- It's me right there. Trevor.
- There you are.

How's the, uh,
how's the turnout tonight?

- Um...
- _

Has Morgan Watterworth
shown up, by any chance?

_

Okay. Cool... Oh, yeah.
There's her name.

Virgil. Thank God this guy

- didn't show, right?
- [LAUGHS]

Don't see any of my crew here, but...

Band kids are here. That's cool.

Terrell, Arman. Can't believe
that relationship lasted.

Oh, my God, it's dead.

Hey. What's up?

sh*t.

I'm here, like,
really early or something.

It's just, like, band kids.

Sorry.

Um...

- [LAUGHS]
- Guess who?

[LAUGHS]: Uh... I-I don't know.

I'll give you a hint. Um... Creamcheese?

- Creamcheese?
- Creamcheese.

- I don't know. I don't know.
- What?

- Wait, was it...?
- Come on.

Oh, my God.

- Uh, Trev... Trevor.
- What's up, guys?

- Yeah, what's up?
- Trevor, hi.

- What's up, man?
- I haven't seen you guys

in a really long time. Is it good

- if I sit here for a second?
- Yeah.

- Over here.
- Can I, can I grab a seat there?

Have a seat, man.

MAN: So, I heard you were, like,

- a professional gamer.
- Yeah, you got me.

I'm-I'm a professional gamer.

We're-we're in the playoffs
right now, so...

we're just trying to win
as much as we can.

We swept them,
so that's going pretty good.

Yeah, I wasn't even sure I was
gonna make it here in time.

So I mean, I actually, I tweeted
out that I was gonna sweep them

so that I could make it
to my high school reunion.

- Oh, my God.
- Got, like, retweets.

I'm so f*cking jealous. I mean,
that's got to be the life.

- You just get paid
- It's f...

- To play video games.
- It's pretty cool.

Yeah, it's-it's the best.

Do you guys have jobs or...?

- [LAUGHTER]
- WOMAN: Yeah.

CREAMCHEESE: Yeah? What do you do?

WOMAN: I'm an-an assistant principal
at an elementary school.

At an elementary school?
That must f*cking suck, right?

[LAUGHS]: No, I love kids.

- You love kids?
- [LAUGHS]: Yeah.

DALE: Hey, guys. Oh, my God. Dale!

- Whoa.
- Hey, Dale.

- You look amazing!
- Thanks.

What the f*ck!
How much weight did you lose?

I lost pounds.

- [CHEERING]
- That's... that's really great.

- WOMAN: One, two, three.
- ALL: Marshall Canyon!

- Yes. We got it.
- Nice.

Maybe we do one more, right?

Just... maybe I'll get in one of these.

- Oh, uh, sure. Yeah.
- For the second one.

- Trevor, get in. Get in.
- Trevor, yeah.

- For the second one.
- Yeah.

You used to be so fat, dude.

- Yeah, I was pretty fat.

One, two, three, Marshall Canyon.

ALL: Marshall Canyon.

Hey, um, Morgan Watterworth
still hasn't come, right?

NIKKI: Yeah, I don't...

- I haven't seen her, no.
- She hasn't? That's fine.

Yeah, that's cool.

- Okay, it's all good.
- Okay?

- NIKKI: Hi, so good to see you.
- Okay, f*ck. All right.

♪ ♪

CREAMCHEESE: A lot of players,
when they were younger,

like, in high school,

they spent all their free time
playing video games.

They don't get attention from
girls until they're pro players,

and then it all comes at them at once.

I was not like that. Like...

I had Morgan.

MORGAN: I think we were
kind of drawn to each other

'cause we were both,
like, a little awkward.

I mean, obviously, him doing, like,

the video game thing and I was, like,

a theater tech stage manager geek?

And, I don't know, there was,
like, a-a little section

of the cafeteria where
you would kind of hang out

if you were weird, and that's where

we started hanging out.

The Alcove.

I would describe
our relationship as playful.

Um... we bust each other's balls a bit.

Can I say that?

All my bros loved her.

All those guys I ran
back with in high school.

Like Jordan,
Mikey Boone, Pickle, Braxton.

I don't know, he's, I think, um...

a little bit sweeter one-on-one

than in front of people.

Uh, well, he took me to see
Fast Five twice, and, uh,

one time he put a bunch
of rose petals in my car.

And I guess, one time,
I casually mentioned

to Trevor that I liked
Toblerone chocolate bars.

Then the very next day, at lunch,

he gave me a Toblerone.

CREAMCHEESE: She f*cking
loved them, so I was like,

"To show my love, I'm gonna get
this girl a Toblerone

every single day."


And then, he-he kept
bringing Toblerones...

And it just became like,

"Wha... Do you expect me to eat,
like, a Toblerone a day?"

Turns out, Toblerones
are not the cheapest candy.

That's, like, $ . per bar, so...

which it's about $ a month
is what I was set back.

I didn't care, though.

It was, like... a metaphor.

For how I felt about her.

MORGAN: It was fun,

but I was planning on going to college,

and Trevor was just in a different spot.

CREAMCHEESE: I kind of decided I
was gonna pursue this pro path,

and frankly, at the time,

Morgan kind of saw gaming
the same way my parents did,

and so I was like, "All right," like,

"I guess that's the end of that."

It sucked.

But as they say, if you love something,

let... set it, let it go free.

And it will always come back to you.

And that's exactly
what happened with her.

Five years later.

ENDER: I mean, Fugitive Gaming
is absolutely dominating

right now, a-and I got to be honest,

I think the biggest reason
why is Creamcheese.

KYLE: was the year of Creamcheese.

Good f*cking job.

APRIL: It was pretty much
the height of Fugitive Gaming.

[RHYTHMIC GRUNTING]

APRIL: The team was on fire,
just annihilating everyone

and making our way to the finals.

Sorry, LCS, we're not going anywhere.

MORGAN: I had just graduated
and got this gig

as a brand ambassador at a
gaming expo called PAX West.

And that's when I learned
that he and Kyle had started

their own team and it was
worth over a million dollars.

- Oh!
- Soak it up, baby. You love it.

MORGAN: It was crazy.

[CHANTING]: Creamcheese! Creamcheese!

MORGAN: So I reached out to say hi.

I was like, "Yo, Morgan,

you should come by
the Fugitive Mansion."

It's nice to be able to drop in
"mansion" into those DMs.

People like that.

♪ Shawty's like a melody in my head... ♪

MORGAN: When he invited me over
to the Fugitive house, uh,

to impress me,

it very much worked.

[LAUGHS]: Um...

- Oh! Oh!
- Kidding me?

CREAMCHEESE: Because it was
really cool to see him

just achieving his dreams.

- Right click to move. [LAUGHS]
- Well, what keys do I click?

- Move your, you...
- That was... She's got her...

Have you ever taught
anyone anything ever?

Alt, Windows, control. Okay, try that.

FRUGGER: I mean, listen, we're
talking about him at his peak.

He could have been with
a K-Kardashian or Lindsay Lohan,

or, like, one of the Olsen twins, right?

But... it wasn't about that.

He wanted his, you know,
his high school sweetheart.

[CHUCKLES]

First of all, if you haven't hiked
before, this is what happens.

Everyone's hiked before but you!

You get in a car to drive to walk...

FRUGGER: For Cream, like,
he's very about loyalty.

And he knows that,

you know, she wasn't there for the money

and she wasn't there for
the fame and stuff like that.

She was just there for him.

How do you decide when to, uh, stop?

- When you get to the top.
- [LAUGHS]: When you...

CREAMCHEESE: She liked
me before Creamcheese.

MORGAN: Okay, I have

- a present for you.
- All right.

She liked me even before Nutmilk.

She-she liked me
back when I was just Trevor.

Oh, my God, this is really nice.

- Oh.
- Do you like it?

Yeah, this is f*cking awesome.

[CHEERING]

KYLE: He was the happiest
I think I've ever seen him.

His mindset, it made
the whole team better.

I've never seen anything like it.

- Yeah.
- KYLE: Go, go, go, go, go.

- Into the pool.
- APRIL: Cream...

risked it all.

He gave up everything to be
a pro gamer, and it worked.

So, Trevor's giving me a tour.

I'm just, like, kind of curious
why Creamcheese

isn't on this-this wall.

Like, how are you, like,
not literally on this wall?

She asks a question
every, like, ten seconds.

- I don't know.
- Just soak it in, you know?

I used to call him crazy for thinking

that he could play
video games for a living.

- CREAMCHEESE: First step. Go.
- My first step.

- Good.
- Doesn't this feel amazing?

- Oh, you look so good next to...
- It's kind of crazy.

MORGAN: I told him I was wrong.

And that I'm so proud of him.

CREAMCHEESE: This is like church to me.

MORGAN: I'm totally... I totally get it.

APRIL: And that validation

meant more to him than he let on.

I know that it hurts him

to this day that he never
got that "I told you so"

with his parents.

But he got that with Morgan.

These are champions.

CREAMCHEESE: You're a champion.

You like it here? It's cool, right?

- It is cool. It is very cool.
- It's f*cking sick.

CREAMCHEESE: She f*cking got it,
you know? Like...

That was nice to hear.

[OVERLAPPING CHATTER]

CREAMCHEESE: There we go. There we go.

There we go, boys, let's f*cking go.

APRIL: In , when we went
all the way to the finals,

Cream was the most confident
I've ever seen him,

and Morgan was a big part of that.

- Yes, yes, yes!
- Let's do it.

- Yeah. f*ck yeah, let's go.
- Vegas. Vegas.

- Ugh! Vegas, baby.
- Let's f*cking go.

We're going to f*cking Vegas!

We were gonna play
in the Spring Split finals

against TSM in our first season.

[RHYTHMIC GRUNTING]

This might have been
the best time of my life.

MORGAN: They were going to Vegas
for the North American finals,

and Trevor asked me

if I wanted to come along.

Of course, I said yes.

I mean, honestly, I-I still pinch myself

when I come out onto the stage.

It feels like I'm living the dream.

I really felt like
we were gonna win, you know?

And Morgan was a big reason why.

She was super cool.

Yeah.

[LINE RINGING]

_

Frugger, what's happening, dude?

_

Sick. Yeah, I'm just, uh, I'm at
Charlie Fitzpatrick's in Claremont.

You should come through.

Yeah, it's my ten-year reunion,

it's an open thing, so you could

Hey, it's pretty cool
that they let us, like...

Guess how much I make!

Oh, sorry. Um... I-I don't know.

Not $ , .

So what do you make?
I don't, I don't know.

$ , a year.

Every single year.

CREAMCHEESE: Get out of here, man.
He looks so good.

- He's amazing. That's...
- How did he do that?

- That guy's incredible.
- I mean, a hundred pounds?

- What?
- Hundred pounds

- is a sh*t-ton of weight.
- Yeah.

- No, he looks hot.
- That's...

He was f*cking fat
in high school, honestly.

[PHONE VIBRATING]

Oh, sh*t.

One second, guys. Hey.

Sup, girl. How are you?

Dude, do not worry about it at all.

I... No, I was just sh**ting off
texts to people who...

Just hounding people who
hadn't shown up yet, you know?

- Yeah.
- _

No, dude, it's-it's sh*t, you know?

But it's pretty f*cking cool.

Dale's lost a sh*t-ton of weight.

Yeah.

Everyone's really psyched for him.

I would love that.
I would absolutely love that.

Okay.

Knew you'd be up, you f*cking nerd.

I told you I would be.

Classic sh*t, dude.

You want to do one?

Yeah. [SCOFFS] Yeah.

So, uh, how was it?

People must have been pretty excited
to see Creamcheese.

Yeah, man, it was like...

It actually got
kind of annoying, you know?

You want to go Cait-Lux here?

Yeah. Yeah.
