    "Hey, calm down, okay?" an older gentleman asks calmly. 

  "No! 

I saw you do something to my drink!" Sol exclaims in response.

 "Lady, I was only testing the waters. 

Geeze." 

 "Testing the- 

Why, I never!" She bellows. 

Thankfully, Mani interrupts the two before they cause even more of a scene. 

 "Is there a problem?" Mani asks, crossing his arms as he stands next to Sol. 

She adjusts her sunglasses in a bit of a huff as the man chuckles. 

 "And who are you supposed to be? 

Kight in shining armor?" 

 "No.

Just came for a better seat." Mani responds, shooting Sol a wink as he walks over to grab Sol's glass. 

Sol peers back at the man, clenching her fists with a smile. 

The crowd was practically cheering, Jen having left the party at this point. 

The man eventually backs up, not wanting to get into a confrontation as Sol seemed more than happy to show him some manners. 

Mani appears around Sol's side, sipping her glass. 

He grins and points to it, grabbing his own glass. 

 "Ha! 

Does everyone see that?! 

The crazy chick's been lying!" He exclaims, making cheers to himself as he drinks the glass in hand like a shot.

The crowd turns to the two in confusion as Mani chuckles. 

Sol crosses her arms. 

 "Actually, sir, what I just had was your drink.

I take it you'll be paying for having stolen my sister's?" He asks with a smirk. 

The man immediately shuts up and looks at the glass he had drunk all of. 

It's not long after the old man collapses into the crowd as they all begin to cheer and scream.

Mani places the glass down on the bar, gesturing to the door. 

Sol nods and the two quickly leave the Paradise Club, walking away like total badasses. 

Get into the scene here:


Once outside, Sol pauses which catches her brother off guard. 

"Something wrong?" he asks, Sol turning with a smile. 

 "Hmm...maybe you're not so bad after all, old man." 

He chuckles. 

 "Can't be any worse than you, sunshine." 

 "Ugh, sunshine? 

Really? 

That was so last Millinea!" she exclaims with a chuckle. 

Mani laughs as well, enjoying instigating his sister all the more as the bickering continues. 

 "Wanna go back to crashpad?"
