Episode 8: "The Golden Loo"
Plot: Ben, grappling with the consequences of a questionable island purchase, gets roped into yet another absurd plan—this time turning the island into a “luxury destination” featuring a golden toilet. Meanwhile, Richie pitches the idea of a reality TV show about the extravagance, including his Royal Flush poker tournament with billionaires and central banks. As the gang navigates the chaos, they realize how ridiculous things have gotten—especially when Richie decides to open the tournament with karaoke.
Scene 1: Connie’s Press Conference
Setting: Connie stands at yet another press conference, surrounded by a sea of journalists and flashing cameras. Ever since her accurate financial predictions, she's being hailed as a modern-day Nostradamus. The crowd waits anxiously for her next big revelation.
Connie (calm but exasperated):
“Let me be clear—Richie did not cause this financial crisis. But, let’s be honest, he certainly didn’t help the situation either. He was just following the crowd.”
Reporters exchange murmurs, taking notes furiously. One particularly eager journalist raises their hand.
Reporter (eagerly):
“Can you explain what you mean by ‘following the crowd’? Was there something specific?”
Connie (dryly):
“Well, his whole ‘30-second loans to billionaires and central banks’ at 150,000% interest… not the best business model for financial stability.”
The room bursts into laughter, though some chuckles sound a bit nervous. Connie delivers a brief smirk before stepping away from the podium.
Scene 2: Ben’s Island Dilemma
Setting: The gang is at their usual hangout, with Ben pacing around, visibly stressed. The large screen in front of them displays a tropical island, the one Ben accidentally purchased.
Ben (frustrated):
“So, apparently, I now own this island with a $5 billion tax value, and I can’t even sell it on eBay for $20! What am I supposed to do with this?”
Richie (casually sipping his drink):
“Make it a tourist trap? You know, ‘Ben’s Discount Paradise.’ It’s catchy.”
Ben (sarcastically):
“Yeah, because people just love vacationing at islands caught in the middle of a financial meltdown.”
Alfie (nodding):
“Why not lean into it? Build something extravagant—something that screams luxury during chaos. Like a golden toilet.”
Ben stops pacing, his face lighting up as the idea sinks in.
Ben (seriously considering):
“A golden toilet... That’s brilliant!”
Connie (raising an eyebrow):
“Are we really doing this?”
Scene 3: Richie’s Royal Flush Idea
Setting: With Ben’s island dilemma looming large, the gang sits around, brainstorming. Richie suddenly perks up, his excitement palpable.
Richie (grinning):
“I’ve got it! We turn the island into a luxury hotspot—build the golden toilet as a symbol of excess—and host my Royal Flush poker tournament! We bring in billionaires and central banks to play. High-stakes poker on a tropical island? It’s perfect.”
Connie (deadpan):
“And you think people will come just for a toilet and poker?”
Richie (confident):
“Not just any toilet—a golden toilet! And billionaires love poker. Trust me, it’ll be the hottest thing since the iPhone.”
Ben (half-hopeful):
“You really think this can work?”
Richie (with a grin):
“Absolutely. And I’ll open the tournament with my karaoke performance of ‘Gold Digger’—they’ll love it.”
Scene 4: Poker Game Moment
Setting: The gang is back at their regular poker game. Richie, distracted by practicing his karaoke performance, is too focused on his rendition of "Gold Digger" to notice the game unfolding around him.
Richie (singing, oblivious):
“Now I ain’t sayin’ she a gold digger…”
While Richie belts out the lyrics, the rest of the gang quietly scoops up his chips, one by one.
Ben (whispering to Alfie):
“So, this is how he keeps losing so much money?”
Alfie (smirking):
“Yup. Karaoke and poker—a winning combo.”
Scene 5: The Golden Loo Project
Setting: Construction begins on Ben’s island for the infamous golden toilet. As expected, Richie takes things too far, adding golden chandeliers, diamond-encrusted faucets, and velvet ropes around the throne.
Connie (watching, shaking her head):
“This is beyond absurd.”
Alfie (laughing):
“It’s so ridiculous, it just might work.”
Scene 6: The Tournament and Finale
Setting: The Royal Flush poker tournament kicks off on Ben’s island. The golden toilet stands proudly as the centerpiece, and high rollers have gathered to witness this spectacle of luxury excess. Richie struts around in his flashy gold suit, giddy with excitement.*
Richie (grinning):
“See, I told you this would be epic!”
The billionaires, mildly impressed and mostly confused, settle into their seats. Richie takes the stage with his mic in hand, ready to open the night.
Richie (grinning):
“And now, for my favorite part—karaoke time!”
He breaks into “Gold Digger,” dazzling the audience with his over-the-top performance. As Richie belts out the lyrics, Ben watches the scene unfold, feeling more uncertain by the second.
Ben (muttering under his breath):
“This is my life now…”
The episode ends with Richie striking a dramatic karaoke pose, while the rest of the gang can only laugh at the insanity they’ve found themselves wrapped in.
