Scotty and June are two in-universe commentators for THE FINALS. They give updates about the ongoing game to the viewers, such as changes to the current leading team, or if a team is in the knockout zone in a Tournament.
Scotty
Scotty's Past
It is revealed through Scotty's dialogue that he was a former contestant on THE FINALS:
Scotty (after a team has one member remaining): | "There's now only one contestant left for the Powerhouses! I used to thrive in those situations, June." |
June (after the first elimination in a match): | "And there's our first elimination of the match! Scotty, this could get really chaotic, really fast!" |
Scotty: | "Well I saw that one coming, June. You know, the trained eye of a former contestant and all that." |
Scotty (after a cashout is stolen): | "And out of the blue, that just happened!" |
June: | "Didn't see that steal coming, Scotty? Even as a former contestant? What an adrenaline rush!" |
June: | It's the final round! Are you nervous Scotty? |
Scotty: | Ah, well June, I've been in our contestants' shoes myself. Not letting the pressure get to you is the key to victory! |
There is also an achievement that implies Scotty was a former contestant, as well as a sticker showing his to-do list.
