Nobody gave a shit about the Jump Street re-boot when you first came on. Anyone with half a brain thought it was destined to fail spectacularly. But you got lucky, so the Commissioner re-re-booted Jump Street and increased the budget and got you that fancy office across the street. As if spending twice the money guaranteed twice the profit.

Sample dialogue
Did you know the Commissioner is blaming me for allowing you to be put on a different assignment? She’s convinced the reason this debacle happened is you weren’t doing the exact same thingyou did the first time. She thinks doing the same thing will make you recapture the old chemistry and somehow stop your egos from ruining the whole enterprise. She doesn’t get that it’s alwaysworse the second time around. After the buzz of the initial success wears off, all the tiny differences you thought were cute and endearing becoming irritating and offputting. You begin to wonder, is my partner holding me back? Can I function on my own? One person pulls away. The other gets possessive. It’s a slow, painful unraveling, until one day one of you finds yourself alone behind a desk while the other is the biggest recording artist in the free world.
