[grabs a hood] CIA Agent : Who paid you to grab Dr. Pavel? [No answer, the agent fires his gun away from the prisoner's head] CIA Agent : He didn't fly so good! [pulls the hood back into the plane] CIA Agent : Who wants to try next? [grabs another prisoner] CIA Agent : Tell me about Bane! Why does he wear the mask? A lot of loyalty, for a hired gun! Bane : Or perhaps he's wondering why someone would shoot a man, before throwing him out of a plane? CIA Agent : At least you can talk. Who are you? Bane : It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is our plan. [the Agent removes the hood] Bane : No one cared who I was until I put on the mask. CIA Agent : If I pull that off, would you die? Bane : It would be extremely painful. CIA Agent : You're a big guy! Bane : For you. CIA Agent : Was getting caught part of your plan? Bane : Of course... Dr. Pavel refused our offer in favor of yours, we had to find out what he told you. Dr. Pavel : Nothing! I said nothing! CIA Agent : Well, congratulations! You got yourself caught! Now what's the next step in your master plan? Bane : Crashing this plane... with no survivors! * [Uzbekistani Army soldiers carrying Dr. Pavel greet a CIA agent and several Special Ops soldiers] CIA Agent : Dr. Pavel, I'm CIA. [shakes hands with Dr. Pavel] Barsad : He wasn't alone. [motions to three hooded prisoners he has brought alone] CIA Agent : Uh... you don't get to bring friends. Dr. Pavel : They are not my friends. Barsad : Don't worry, no charge for them. CIA Agent : And why would I want them? Barsad : They were trying to grab your prize. They work for the mercenary. The masked man... CIA Agent : Bane? [the driver nods] CIA Agent : Get him on board, I'll call it in.== |

| | |
| === Beginning ===
| |
| On the 15th of November, an announcement was posted in the #announcements channel by the user [[Wurzt]] that told members to start sending messages with the #RipDrake hashtag on the Twitter platform, many other servers such as [[Dogelore]] or [[Irony Hub]] also helped with the effort of pushing the hashtag into the trending section of Twitter.
| |
| | |
| This goal was finally met and thanks to that many innocent individuals were caught up in a somewhat elite act of ironic trolling.<ref>[https://i.gyazo.com/36c19d8aaa4f84df29d0755b8b1324b9.png Screenshot of a message in the #announcement channel related to #RipDrake going trending in the US.]</ref><ref>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/528925949568483328/777333032226783262/image0.png Screenshot of many unrelated twitter users getting trolled by #RipDrake]</ref>
