Ruff's Doghouse. Before the Contestants Come in. Glen is seen playing NBA 2K and he gives a wave.
Ruff: Basketball. This sport is growing in popularity all of a sudden. It's time we thought up a challenge, Blossom. So... could you draw one up?
Blossom nods. She types something into her Computer and comes up with a Basketball Concept with Real rules, and On-the-fly Changes.
Ruff: Cool! So, Glen, What are you doing in that Game of Yours?
Glen: I'm playing Blacktop Mode, it's kinda like Playground Basketball where you pick players to play for you. You can go One on one, Two on two, three-on-three, four-on-four, and the full-court five-on-five.
Ruff: I see. Anyways, get the fetchers here, and get the Randomizer Ready. Some of my friends from the Football Challenge are coming as well.
Blossom gives a thumbs-up as the Hotline rings.
Ruff: Oh. There's the Andrews Hotline. Mr. Andrews! Hi! How are ya? It's midseason already! What's that you say? Another Season with New Contestants? I love it! Oh, but it's gonna be on a different Wattpad than yours. Makes sense. I may see what I can do to get you again for Season 3, the Winter Games Themed one we talked about after the midseason show. What's that, You have it Planned already? That's Great! And you're saying all it took was postponed Challenges? Excellent! I'll see you then! (hangs up) Okay, Ruff. Settle down. This is gonna take some getting used to.
Blossom begins packing as we fade to black.

Ruff: That I can do for you, Glen.
(they arrive at the Court)

Spike: Ruff! Guys! How are ya?
Chase: Didn't know you were in Basketball too.
Spike: I played both Sports with Ruff in High School.
Bluey: Is this True?
Ruff: Well, It is. I was mostly on the bench for basketball, I was a good runner and blocker as a Fullback. Our team was unstoppable with the triple option that we ran. However, I wanted to make my living by hosting this game show.
Spike: And I don't blame you either.
Ruff: Thanks, Spike. Everyone Lines up, Fetchers First. The Fetch 3000 is going to select Captains. Each Captain selects 4 more players to start with on the court and 5 substitutes. And the First Captain is... Tails!
