## Story

Kenny Omega heads into The Young Bucks dressing room. He says they must be on the rise as they had a car laid on and now they have a private room. Kenny looks at the scarves that Matt and Nick are wearing that have "*The Bucks of Jericho or is it Y2Jackson*" embroidered on them. Kenny asks what the scarves are as Cody enters and says that he has a scarf just like that. Matt and Nick dispute him saying that they are only two of a kind, as Cody angrily berates them and says that he is going to rip the scarves off them on the upcoming cruise. Chris Jericho is now stood behind Matt and Nick and responds telling Cody and Kenny never to insult the scarves. Jericho says that they were hand made by a fan in Nepal, or maybe in south east Oregon. Kenny claims the scarves came from a dollar store. The group begine shouting at each other in unison as each side threatens retribution. Eventually Cody and Kenny leave saying they are going to fetch Marty Scurll who will come for The Bucks of Jericho. They all continue shouting at each other until Kenny finally closes the door, before Jericho locks it saying that Cody and Kenny can't come back now. The opening titles run.

Matt, Nick and Marty are in the back of a cab heading to the airport in Japan. They talk about this last tour which was only one match on one day and none of them won. They run down their upcoming schedule and travel and talk about the grind of having to do so much travel.

A few days later Matt and Nick have arrived at their hotel in Baltimore. They meet SoCal Uncensored who are in the lobby waiting for their rooms. Frankie Kazarian says that their travel day was more brutal than The Bucks as they had to fly from SCU. Matt asks if that should be LAX and Scorpio insists that it is SCU Airport. Matt says he was going to ask them about their thoughts on Baltimore and SCU are about to give their views but stop themselves. Instead Matt asks for their views on SoCal and the group perk up. There follows a montage of scenes of SCU talking about their home state; Kazarian talks about avocados while in the gym, back in the hotel lobby Frankie explains why Hollywood is in California, as the bucks begin a promo piece Scorpio Sky enters and asks if they have been to a chicken and waffle restaurant in California, in the toilets Christopher Daniels tells Matt about Universal studios, Daniels jumps into a car with Matt, Nick and Dana Massie and begins to tell them about a theatre in Hollywood. Eventually back in the hotel lobby Scorpio begins to talk about SoCal having the best sports team ever, the LA Lakers.

"Last week in Japan..." Matt is thanking Masa for taking them for dinner. Marty appears and says that he thinks that they need to do some team building so he is going to have a party on New Year's Day and invites Matt. Matt looks a bit awkward and says that he is busy but is evasive about what he will actually be doing. Marty says that it will be an all day thing so surely Matt can come to some of it but Matt continues to be evasive. Marty says he needs to do a guest list and wants a response. Matt blows up and says that everyone keeps asking what he will be doing on January 1st and storms off saying he isn't going to the party. Marty asks Masa why the bucks hate partying and Masa shakes his head.

Back in Baltimore Nick is doing pull ups in the gym when Scorpio Sky joins him on the same equipment and starts talking about SoCal sports teams into Nick's face. Matt is in the shower when a fully clothed Kazarian joins him and begins to tell him about the history of Metallica who formed in California. Back in the hotel lobby Matt says that those were great facts about SoCal an it's great to hear about The Bucks home town. SoCal Uncensored look shocked and say they didn't know that Matt and Nick were from the same state and ask what The Bucks like about it.

SoCal Uncensored are outside a Cracker Barrel restaurant and compliment it on the food. Matt and Nick appear and ask if they knew that a Cracker Barrel branch was opening in a town in SoCal. At a signing Matt apears behind SCU and list various towns in SoCal as SCU look confused. Christopher Daniels goes to bed in his hotel room before the light comes back on and Matt is stood by his bed to tell CD that recreational drugs are legal in California. Sky is asleep in the car when Nick wakes him up to tell him about Disneyland. SCU are posing for photos with fans when Matt arrives in a shark mascot costume and lists some Californian beaches. Back in the hotel lobby SCU say they hadn't even thought of those things and they all agree that they love SCU.

Hangman is watching the last episode of Being The Elite and laughing at it. Page watches as Kenny receives the mysterious note from 'H', and pauses the video. Worridly, Page looks down at his new boots that had also come from 'H'.

Matt is backstage in a dressing room as Nick enters. The ticking sound starts up and they both look around. They pull out their phones and they now both have a countdown clock and they look knowingly at each other. Frankie Kazarian bursts in to tell them that the wrestling tag-team The Young Bucks are from SoCal but decides better of it and leaves as the episode ends.
