Kennedy stabs her fork at the tip of the pie. The perfect bite complete with a raspberry on top. But Dan's fork swings in to block her. He weaves his fork in a circle to deflect her and cuts the tip of the pie for himself. But Kennedy isn't finished. She grips the handle of her fork no longer caring for proper holding positions and slashes his fork away as she does. So she slides her fork down his and the bite of pie falls off to the small ceramic plate. Dan pauses stunned which gives Kennedy enough time to impale the bite of pie. As the pie slice shrinks the two begin to eat it faster and faster. Both wanting to get the last bite or at least the last raspberry at last, the pie becomes so small. Both their forks lunge in at the same time, they clash together stainless steel on stainless steel and they twist and turn and try and disarm their opponent amidst the fury. The last raspberry is knocked off the top of the pie.
