[Well isn't this awkward, right? A video on the network after all those horrible things happened and the person in it is smiling and cheerful. Except it's just a smile of the lips. There's no happiness in those glowing eyes. But he's forcing the smile because there is only so much he can do. And what he can do is try and fight back. In the only way he knows how. Making sure other people can fight back.]

Heya all! Zack here, and I had a totally rad proposition. Like, it's occurred to me while I've been working at this fitness place that the place charges a lot for their memberships, and even then you've gotta pay EXTRA for, like, a personal trainer like I do.

[Oh yeah, he's SO going to get fired for what he's about to suggest if his bosses at work see it. Well, the handy-man job probably not. But this? Definitely this.]

And, you know, when we're new here, new arrivals and all of that, a lot of your initial duos are going to clothes and food and all that stuff, right? It's reasonable. It's even smart. But you still wanna stay fit for your work if it's hands on stuff. And me? I like working out and getting fit and cheering people on. I'm, like, SUPER positive and I'm told I'm really great at helping out with this stuff.

So what I'm suggesting is this. I wanna start up a fitness group for my fellow newer arrivals. You know, those of us in the dorm building. I'm gonna see if I can't find some space to do it in, and I'll have a few different classes and all that. General fitness, weight lifting, those sorts of things.

[And then he tilts his head, like he's having a last minute thought. Which isn't true. Zack practiced this in front of the mirror for THREE HOURS to try and make it as real as he can through practice.]

Oh! And you know what is great fitness training? Martial arts and all that. I mean, I'm not the best at hand to hand, but I've seen a place that has these great practice swords, like, kendo stick stuff. I'd LOVE to teach that. I'm a swordsman, see, back home. REALLY good at it, and I'd love to teach people so I can keep my skills up. So I can teach that too. And some hand to hand combat.

Anyway I wanna do this thing so we can all stay fit and healthy, right? So I guess I wanted to know if people would want me to offer something like that, no charge of course. Oh, and if anyone knows a place I could hold it? Because my dorm room definitely isn't big enough. And doing it in the hallway is just asking for trouble.

So basically, any takers?
