[The scene opens up on what looks like our leather clad card player in the midst of two rather bulky and imposing aliens down on the planet.]

You dress like you know how to have a good time. Why not show us? [A hand falls on Atem's shoulder and one can probably tell how tense he is. He produces a deck of playing cards from his pocket and let's not ask why he carries these things around]

How about a game first. Stakes. If I lose I'll give you whatever you want, if you lose you don't show your faces near me again. [Something in his eyes almost seems to want to promise more for the loser.]

Keh. Why play a game when I can just-

[One of them grabs Atem's shoulder, but he remains unflappable.] Name the suit of one single card while I have to pick a specific. Your odds are significantly greater. If both of us are wrong, you win anyway. Still think you can't do it? [The smirk he's wearing is specifically meant to taunt.

And it seems to work as the alien nods. Atem shuffles and then draws the top card. They both announce before the reveal-]

Hearts.

Ace of Spades.

[Of course Atem is right, which seems to piss the duo off even more. The one behind grabs Atem's arm and hoists it up, almost to the point of breaking it. But Atem again, aside gritting his teeth, has a very deadly stare.] You lose. [He hisses. The alien seems to consider doing whatever he wants but something in those crimson eyes tells him to run. He shoves Atem over and walks off with his pal, the King of Games landing with a very hard thud as the feed cuts.]
