The NFC & AFC East's Reaction to Week 8

This begins with a scene from two weeks ago, of Joe reacting to the Dolphin’s decision to start Tua. However, he seems down when he realizes that his sons have not returned yet. We jump forward one week, and Joe is bored out of his mind. We then jump back to the present, and he is over-celebrating the Dolphins’ win. We then cut to… black screen. Gut-wrenching heartbeats. We see Springsteen laying in bed, still breathing, and Bruce staring down at his brother. Worry is plastered on his face. He slowly walks out of the room, giving one last long glance. When he gets upstairs, he sees Rocky, and we are introduced to the crown for the first time in the GCU. (Not for the first time in Tom Grossi’s channel history, though. Go look through the 2019-2020 predictions, you’ll find it!) Rocky is acting all high and mighty when Wildflower interrupts him, asking about the crown. Rocky silences him and rambles on before introduces his ‘steed’, Gus. Gus says that, “Scooter said I was a grown man. This is not what grown men do.” Bruce ignores it all and asks if anyone has seen where Frederick is. Wildflower tells him that he’s in the garage, and Bruce exits. We then see Frederick and Carl in the garage, Carl still tied up. Frederick is making fun of Cam Newton’s performance in the last game, and Carl just seems to be taking it. Frederick then proceeds to inflate the football, poking fun at Tom Brady’s deflate-gate. Bruce walks up and starts telling Frederick that Springsteen is in a coma because of him, but Frederick brushes it off like it’s nothing. Then, Bruce rears up and punches Frederick square in the face, knocking the football away and landing near Carl, pin up and out. Frederick recoils in shock, and Bruce threatens that, “If anything happens to Springsteen, I’ll kill you,” and walks off. Frederick, still in shock, picks up the football and tries to compose himself. He realizes that the pin is gone, and then the garage door starts closing. He turns around to see Carl, free from his restraints, holding up the pin. Carl peels off the tape from his face and asks Frederick, “What were you saying?” Frederick drops the ball in fear, and Carl beats the crap out of him, although that is offscreen. We then cut to Springsteen’s bedroom, and the door opens to reveal Carl. He slowly walks in, looks over his brother, and then leans on the wall in the same spot that Bruce was previously in. With that, the episode ends.
