Retail Ending[]
You are the winner of the competition and are granted an audience with Calypso, the creator of the Twisted Metal contest.
As you speed into his underground garage, you spot him, surrounded by bodyguards and seated on a throne of broken car parts. His face is burnt beyond recognition. His smile is hideous. He speaks:
"As you know, I shall now grant any prize you request."
"Please, sir," you say. "I just want to... to be alive again."
For the last five years you have been a spirit, a ghost, a dead guy. Stabbed by a maniac serial killer at a local circus, you were killed instantly. Since then, your soul has been wandering the Earth in search of a way to come back to life. Now you have your chance. As winner of Twisted Metal, Calypso must grant you ANY wish you ask for. And he does.
In a flash of bright, white light, you are alive again.
You race off into the LA night, heading home to be with your wife and little girl who was born three days after you died. Your heart is racing and tears are streaming down your face. It feels great to be alive... again!!!

Trivia[]
- Scott Campbell is the name of the co-founder of the Twisted Metal series. However, the live-action actor who played as Scott is not the co-founder himself.
- It is implied that Scott was killed by Needles Kane, as it is mentioned in his ending that he was stabbed by a serial killer in a circus.
- In the ending ultimately used in the game, Scott Campbell is successfully brought back to life and leaves without incident. In the unused live-action ending however, Calypso brings Scott to life only to kill him once more immediately afterwards.
- Scott is the first ghost seen participating in Twisted Metal, followed by Krista Sparks and Simon Whittlebone in Twisted Metal: Head-On.
