"Livin' On A Prayer"]

[grunts]
He flings him into the ropes

and, oh, a devastating
clothesline.

[knock on door]

Hey, Timmy.
Your dad's here.

Do I have to go?

What's up, buddy?

Ready to hang
with your old man?

What do you expect, Mick?

You blow him off
every other weekend.

What do you expect when you
bad-mouth me the way you do?

Oh, you think I'm the reason
you two have problems?

Bring Your Dad To School Day

he didn't even bother asking you

'cause he knew
you wouldn't show.

Is that true, Timmy?

Mom says dockworkers are dirty.

And wrestlers ain't?

Wrestlers are the coolest

[Stillman]
'.44 Magnum.'

Traded in during an anonymous

Guns for Groceries program.

It's...a cannon.

A lot of groceries
for this thing.

Ballistics got a hit.

The gun killed a Mick Malone,
June of '86.

A dockworker.
Killed at the pier.

Yeah, Mick had a reputation
for busting kneecaps

as a low-level muscle
for the Longshoremen's Union.

Dangerous moonlighting.

Figured Mick's death
was related, but keep reading.

Mick was also a wrestler
for the WIC, indie circuit.

That where Humpty Dumpty
comes in?

Bear Jacobs.

Gun's registered in his name.

We pulled him from a match.

You mean he doesn't dress
like that all the time?

Waitin' forever.

Eighty buck purse
I missed out on tonight.

Well, you got bigger concerns,
Bear.

[gasps]
You found my baby!
Where was she?

You're pretty excited to own
a gun with a body on it.

A body?
Hell you talkin' about?

Mick Machine Malone.

In the WIC together.

I didn't kill Mick.

Only wrestled him
a couple of times.

Crowd loved him.

Then how do you explain
this whole

you owning
the gun situation?

I ain't had her

since March of '86.

And I know exactly
where she went.

Hey!

[grunts]

You report the gun stolen, Bear?

Wanted to find
the son of a bitch myself.

Guy was a jobber
to the midcarders.

Hired to get beat every night?

Jumped around the circuits.

Only got work 'cause he could
do a Commie accent.

Cold War saved his ass.

Now who was this guy?

Red Scare.

Don't know his real name.

Remember where you were
when Mick got killed?

Twenty-some years ago?

Where were you?

It was not my gun
that killed a guy.

June 16th, 1986.

[sighs]

Probably at the Traffic Light.

Dated a waitress there.
Sapphire.

Well, Bear, your new ring
is gonna be a holding cell

'till she vouches for you.'

Might want to call
for some extra clothes.

Gets chilly downstairs.

Hey, when I get out..

...you gonna give me
my gun back?

Yeah, I'll have it
gift wrapped for you.

[theme music]

[Rush]
Mick The Machine Malone, 28.

Day of murder,
June 16th, 1986.

'Baby face of the WIC.'

- Baby face?
- Good guy.

Would've headlined against other
heels as the fan favorite.

Lil, apparently was
a Hulkamaniac back in the day.

[Valens]
'So, you like that nonsense?'

Oh, it distracted me
for a few hours every Saturday.

Assigned talked to some
wrestlers back in '86

and Lance Kotrola,
WIC's promoter.

Well, Mick's last match was
ten days before he was killed

against Sweet Sil Tavern.

Well, Mick had a nine-year-old
son, Tim, with ex-wife, Rachel.

Night Mick was murdered, she was
with Tim at the hospital.

Did a midnight shift
at the local diner.

I'll reach out to the son,
see what he knows.

And let's pay Lance a visit too.

He might know who
the Red Scare was.

Hey, uh, either of you
heard from Vera?

Uh, think he's tracking down
Bear's alibi.

Yeah.

Supposed to have breakfast
with him

but the dude never showed.

Left him a couple
messages myself.

He's probably just
hungover somewhere.

You know what's going on
with him?

Whatever it is,
he's keeping it to himself.

[instrumental music]

You were at the hospital
the night your dad died?

Broke my arm playing football.

Got a cast, nothing big.

Your dad ever mention
a wrestler named Red Scare?

Red Scare?

Nah.

I thought he got killed 'cause
of something he did down here.

We're just, uh, looking
into a wrestling connection.

Wrestling brought us closer.

Brought us all closer.

Look what I got for you, buddy.

"Bill The Thrill!"

Awesome!

Yeah, don't look now but someday

that's gonna
be a Mick Malone doll.

I mean, wrestler.

Yeah, you wish, dad.

Oh, I wish?

[growling]

[laughing]

Where did you learn that move?

You know, I've been getting
in the ring a little bit.

Going to this wrestling school.

[Timmy]
'No way!'

That's the coolest thing
I've ever heard.

It's the coolest thing
I've ever done.

But you're still
unloading cargo?

Yeah, I mean, I'm not
gonna quit my job.

You know, maybe
someday, right, buddy?

Yeah.

I can't tell who's the adult

between the two of you.

Look, wrestling's honest work.

It beats debt collecting.

That's not saying much.

What happens if you get hurt
in the ring?

Nah, it's fine.

Means, it's all for show.

Nobody really gets hurt.

'Anyways, here.'

It's, uh..

It's from my first match.
It's not much.

I'm just a jobber now, but..

...I'll get more
if I stick with it.

Okay.

Great.

Still need a ring name though.

I was thinking maybe you could
come up with something, Timmy.

Yeah, somethin' cool,
you know.

Like..

...The Machine.

The Machine?

Like you're unstoppable.

Like you grind people up,
and drill 'em into the mat.

See, now that's the coolest
thing I've ever heard.

You ready to hang
with your old man?

Totally. Let's go.

That was probably the happiest
time from when I was a kid.

My dad coming back
in my life like that.

You know any of the wrestlers
your dad hung out with?

No, mom never let me go
to any of his matches.

But I got every bootleg tape
I can find with him on it.

Mind if I take a look at those?

Be my guest.

You know, I'm pretty sure
the only reason

he got in the ring was..

...because of me.

Quite an operation, Lance.

That chair you're in,
ten grand.

[whistles]

Yeah, you know,
the WWE, they had these

perfect, polished little
matches back in the 80s

and I said screw that with
two words, garbage wrestling.

I guess bloodlust is where
it's at, even if it's fake.

Well, my matches
may be predetermined

but they're far from fake.

Athletes have to have pretty big
brass ones to rep the WIC.

Guys like Mick Malone?

Is that what this is all about?

Well, Mick stopped wrestling
ten days before he died

after his match with Sil Tavern.

Why was he off the card?

Kayfabe.

You know, keeping up
appearances outside of the ring.

Acting,
more time off to..

...build hype for a feud.

Sil and Mick have any
real beef behind the scenes?

Please. Someone in the family
does well, we all do well.

Red Scare part of that family?

Are you kidding? I fired that
crackhead over 20 years ago.

'He got a real name?'

Nate Beecher.

What was the deal
with him and Mick?

Well, they were both jobbers,
trying to move up the ranks

but Mick was a natural
at what mattered most.

[Ratt singing
"Round And Round"]

[Sil]
'Not only am I the champion'

but I also have the greatest
title of them all..

...The Sweet One.

Men are honored

to lose to Sil Tavern.

'Then they can run
to their girlfriends'

and tell them
they were just beaten

by the prettiest there ever was.

[laughs]

Oh, and ladies..

...if you notice, this face..

...not a scratch on it.

[laughs]
Cut.

Superb.

Okay, who's next?

You, Red Scare,
let's see what you got.

♪ It's all the same she said ♪

I Red Scare.

My dropkicks like missiles
from Gorbachev.

[Lance]
'Cut. Lame.'

Anybody with some freakin'
personality here, please.

♪ You'd put an arrow
through my heart ♪

Well, let me tell you
something, Lance.

When the big boss man
in the sky created The Machine

he gave me one job

crushing punks
like sissy Sil Tavern.

And until you're in
that driller slam

and you hear that one

two, three

'I'll be putting in overtime.'

So get ready all you
gearheads out there

'cause The Machine
is going to work!

Yay!

What do you think,
you're better than me?

♪ Round and round ♪

♪ With love we'll find a way ♪

♪ Just give it time
time time time ♪

♪ Round and round ♪♪

Mick had headliner
written all over him.

Red Scare, just a jealous loser
that I kicked to the curb.

Know where he is now?

Last I heard
that 'mo was mastering

the fine art of cot wrestling
with his cell mate.

Must have sucked being
the Detroit Lions of wrestling.

Huh, Red Scare?

I was a good wrestler.

No one did the Russian like me.

Too bad you couldn't be
as good a criminal.

Rap sheet a mile long.

Always getting pinched.

You steal that?

Doesn't look familiar.

- Not what Bear says.
- I don't know a Bear.

How about a Machine?

You know Mick Malone?

Nope.

Well, then you must have
hit your head pretty good

when he slammed you
to the ground like a rag doll.

What's your point with all this?

Look, we'll go slow,
so try to keep up.

This .44 is the gun
that killed Mick.

If you don't talk,
slap the gun theft on you

you've got another seven years.

Even more for Mick's murder.

Well, hypothetically,
if I'd taken Bear's gun

imagine it had some worth

so I wouldn't have kept it
more than a few weeks.

[sighs]
Hypothetically, what might
you have done with it?

Traded it for some stuff.

What kind of stuff?

Well, steroids, hypothetically.

And I would have sent it
to this guy, Sil Tavern.

Known for the good juice.

Sent? Like, in the mail?

Might have been in Tampa
at the time.

Alright, you sent a gun
through the mail?

Hypothetically.

But I made him sign for it.

I ain't stupid.

Bottom line, I didn't
have that gun, Sil did.

[instrumental music]

- Ooh, good one.
- 'Thank you.'

Thanks.
I appreciate it, guys.

- Sweet Sil Tavern.
- Yeah.

I saw you wrestle
when I was a kid.

Yeah, well,
this is just temporary.

I'll be back in the ring soon.

Alright, pic,
two for ten, both of you.

Maybe later.

You ever own a .44 Magnum?

I used to work security, but..

...I never needed
a piece like that.

Well, took us forever

to find this
stupid tracking slip

and now you're gonna lie?

It's a .44 Magnum.

Sent from Nate Beecher.

It was the gun
that killed Mick Malone.

Mick Malone.
We were good friends.

The more we beat each other up,
the closer we've gotten.

Rivalry ever spill
outside the ring?

No way.

We had a great thing going. You
know, Lance worked it all out.

We were the perfect
baby face/heel combination.

So what about the gun?

I got it from Nate,
but I sold it right after.

To who?

Well, to Mick actually.

So you just happened
to sell it to the dead guy?

Yeah, I didn't need it.

I gave him a deal on it.

Mick said something about doing
side jobs, extra cash like that.

- Debt collecting?
- Maybe.

'Indies don't pay much.'

Mick was just trying
to take care of his son.

Did whatever it took
for his family.

[Poison singing "Play Dirty"]

[Lance]
It's our first garbage match

so we're gonna need
to sell it, okay?

Sil is gonna get a club
with barbed wire

out from under the ring.

- Barbed wire?
- 'Okay, Mick.'

You wince with every shot.
You're in pain.

But the moment you duck,
the tides are turned.

You hit Sil
and he drops the club.

I don't see what we need
all this garbage stuff for.

I'm tired of people
saying we're fake.

Okay, they want real,
we'll give 'em real.

We'll blow the WWF
out of the freakin' water.

I told my kid I'd bring him
to the match tonight.

- Watch his father win the belt.
- So?

So I don't want my kid seeing me
all cut up with barbed wire.

Well, I guess you'll bring him
to a different match, won't you?

Look, don't tell me
what to do with my kid.

- You wanna wrestle or not?
- 'Hey, hey, guys.'

We're cool.

Lance, you know, I was
talking about the TV deal.

'This feud will get it.'

And, Mick, your kid, right?

'Do some garbage.'

This works out,
you can quit the docks.

Get him whatever he wants.

♪ Play dirty ♪

Fine.

Alright. Alright.

Take that adrenaline
into the ring, huh?

Just...with the club

hit me in the back
instead of the face.

Yeah, yeah, man, no problem.

♪ Like dirty boys do ♪♪

I get what Mick
was going through

trying to be a good dad.

I got a son too, I..

I'd do anything for him.

Mick and Lance butt heads often?

Don't see why they would have.

We all got our TV deal
right after that

and everybody was happy.

Do you remember where
you were when Mick got shot?

Yeah, um,
I was out with the boys.

We had a card that night.

You got any names?

I'm sure I could drum 'em up.

Well, you're gonna have
to come with us till you do.

Look, could it not be here
in front of the fans?

'Only got a few minutes left.'

Sorry, Sil. Let's go.

Oh, come on.

Talked to Sapphire
from the Traffic Light.

Broke up with Bear in '82.

Well, the guy was
only four years off.

Ain't the only thing
he was off about.

Turns out he and Mick
collected debts together

for the Longshoremen.

Any info on that
traveling gun?

I found who donated it
to Guns for Groceries

off surveillance
at the grocery store.

Jordan Pope.

Lived in Alaska
through June of '86.

Well, he couldn't be
our doer then.

Said he found the gun
in Juniata Park, fall of '86

a few months after the murder.

[dramatic music]

You okay, Belen?

What's wrong?

I saw him.

Have a seat.

The scum who assaulted you?

Where?

He was mowing a lawn
in my neighborhood.

[knocking]

[indistinct]

[dramatic music]

[door opens]

[grunts]

[glass shattering]

[grunting]

[screams]

[groans]

[female #1]
'I called the police.'

They're already here.

[dramatic music]

Morning.

What happened, Scotty?

Uh..

I had to...make an arrest.

Guy put up
a little resistance.

Everything on the up-and-up?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, no worries.

'Go get checked out,
cleaned up'

'and we'll talk
about it later on.'

Sure thing.

Now, Scotty.

[Rush]
Hey.

You okay?

You should see the other guy.

This have to do with, um..

Did you get him?

Yeah.

You forgot to mention
that you and Mick

worked together,
muscle for the union.

Makes me look bad.

Well, not as bad as
your alibi going south, Bear.

Sapphire dumped you
way before '86.

What difference does it make?

Didn't you find the Red Scare?

It was your gun.

'You and Mick collecting debts.'

Where did it go wrong?

Night Mick was killed..

[sighs]

...check Spank-Me Escorts.

Okay.

Mick looked out for me.

Got me the job wrestling.

But..

...his troubles
went beyond the mat.

[Mick]
'Look, I told you
what happened.'

[Rachel]
What kind of a person
does that? You bastard!

Why, because I want Timmy to see
his dad good at somethin'?

Last time
you'll see him at all.

No, no, you're not
taking him away from me.

We'll see about that.

Timmy..

Timmy, I'm fine, okay?

I'm fine, buddy.
Hey, it's all pretend.

I'll see you soon.

Okay? I'll see you soon.

Rachel..

[dramatic music]

What was the fight about?

'No idea.'

But if Mick's ex thought
he'd give up his kid

she had another thing coming.

[Jeffries]
'Just spent an exhilarating
time down at family court.'

Yeah, you bond
with the city workers?

Yeah, Rachel filed
for sole custody

four days
before Mick's murder.

Said Mick hung around
some unsavory folk.

The wrestlers or dockworkers?

She also claims
Mick abandoned Tim

in a warehouse in Baltimore

the night of his last match.

Alright, let's get her in here.

- Miller's picking her up now.
- Yeah, Tim too.

We'll see what was going on
in that family.

Hey, Valens around?

Um, no.

I'm his partner.

Uh, you're from Central, right?

Yeah, Detective Pierson.

Uh, saw you did
the search warrant, uh

after Scotty made
that arrest last night.

Yeah, my case initially.

Guess Detective Valens
had a beat

went to the scumbag's place,
nobody answered.

But, you know,
the door was already ajar.

He heard some noises,
went in to investigate

and found the IDs.

Yeah, yeah,
that's what I figured.

Hmm.

What went wrong, Rachel?

We had Tim young.

Drifted apart.

Mick violent with you guys?

No.

He just had no clue
what being a real father was.

What do you mean?

Well, his father was up
in Graterford.

I guess he realized that..

...he was heading down
the same path with Tim.

'Not really being a father.'

Tried to turn it around.

That's not what you thought
when you filed for sole custody.

You said..

...that he got Tim out
of school, took him to Baltimore

then left him there.

It took me two hours

to drive up there
and get him.

I found him in a warehouse..

...all by himself.

Mick tell you what happened?

He said he got hurt
in the match.

But unless you're dead..

...it's no excuse, right?

That's a lot of time and money

to get sole custody.

Enough to make you wanna take
matters into your own hands?

I was working
the night Mick was killed.

- Check it out.
- I did.

You took a two-hour break.

Right around the time
Mick was shot.

I snuck off to see my son.

He was in the hospital.

For a broken arm.

Broken arm?
Who told you that?

He was in a coma
for five days.

A coma? Why?

Look, ma had nothing
to do with it, okay?

You see her tell your dad
to stay away from you?

So people argue,
you know? So what?

Well, it's not exactly
the image you painted earlier.

'You never said she filed
for sole custody.'

Sole custody?
I-I didn't know that.

What happened when he left you
alone in that warehouse?

Look, I was just trying to wrap
my head around it all, okay?

Around what?

My dad told me it was all fake.

Yeah.

I thought he was dead.

'Then I saw him at the docks'

and he said he was okay.

'It was all just pretend.'

I-I tried to tell him that..

...sometimes people get hurt.

Well, we-we got
in an argument about it.

When?

After seeing Mick at the docks.

The night Tim went
to the hospital?

'Yeah.'

'He couldn't understand'

why his father would tell him
something that wasn't true.

'And he, um..'

...he went to his room and..

Then I heard it..

..footsteps on the roof.

Timmy?

Tim!

[thud]

I, uh..

I shouldn't have fought so hard

to keep them apart, you know?

'I mean, maybe if..'

'If Mick could have talked
to him, you know..'

He just..

He wanted to be like his dad.

I found the video
from Mick's last match.

[thud]

If Mick knew
that stunt was coming

would he have brought his kid
to that match?

He spent 12 hours in the ER
after that fall.

"Acute axial compression."

It's when the vertebrae mash
together, right?

[Rush]
'Could have been paralyzed
for life.'

Now check this out.

Right after the match..

Get that out of my face.

I ain't gonna tell you again.

Oh, it's a .44 Magnum.

Sold it to Mick, my ass.
Sil had it the whole time.

Let's get him out from holding.

Lance too.

He forgot to mention his..

...star wrestler
nearly broke his neck.

Um, Scotty.

Um..

Pierson found this
under the radiator.

[dramatic music]

He didn't want it to get
mixed up in thereports.

Look, anything you need on this,
Scotty, whatever it is..

...you got it.

Thanks, Lil.

Out with the boys
when Mick died, hmm?

Yeah, the names you gave us,
uh, well..

One's in Japan
and the rest are all dead.

In our business, if you make it
to 50, you're a survivor.

Well, Mick didn't make it to 30.

When did you sell him
that .44 again?

A couple months before he died.

Get that out of my face.

I ain't gonna tell you again.

Match was from ten days
before Mick was killed.

Right after you threw him
off a scaffold.

I must have sold it to him
later than I thought.

Don't lie to me, Sil.

If Mick's gone,
you stay champion.

I didn't kill him.

But you got no problem throwing
him on his head from 20 feet up.

Your idea to go off script?

- No.
- Lance's?

- No, I mean--
- You mean what?

I didn't go off script.

So Mick brings his kid
to the one match

that he's supposed to lose?

That was an accident.

We got Lance in the next room.

Any bets he'll throw you
under the bus?

What do I care
if Sil's in the other room?

This has nothing
to do with me.

God, you're wastin'
your time here.

Trust me, there's a lot
I'd rather do

than talk to you, assclown.

[sighs]
Assclown?

Who in this room owns
a multimillion dollar empire?

Raise that hand again,
you'll lower a stub.

FYI, the WIC attorney's been
notified for Sil as well.

We'll let you know
when he calls.

Why do you need a lawyer?
You've something to hide?

It's my right, detective.

Saw a tape of, uh, Mick
flying through that table.

- Mm-hmm.
- It's cool stunt.

Yeah, first of many.

You get your TV deal
after that match?

I sure did.

So really,
everything you got

is because of Sil.

- Excuse me?
- Sil was a genius.

It was his idea, right?

Throwing Mick off that scaffold?

Ideas don't happen
unless they come from my brain.

I am the WIC.

Uh, you seem like
a leech promoter to me.

Every move, every grunt,
every punch in that ring

that's me.

I create everything.

Including Mick's fall?

[laughing]

Somethin' funny?

I can't believe
I almost fell for that.

The good cop, bad cop.

'You two ought to be
tag team partners.'

Mick must have been real pissed

about that fall you created.

He come talk to you
after he could walk again?

I think I'm just
gonna wait for my lawyer.

Is that okay with you?

Lawyer for the WIC.

Well, you can't rep
Lance and Sil. Pick one.

Lance.

Well, how do I know
you're a lawyer?

You could be anybody.

Doin' some digging on Sil.

Anything I could find.

No felonies, but..

A fender bender.

Twenty minutes
after Mick's murder.

Check out the location.

Wyoming Avenue.

That's right near Juniata Park.

That's, what, about
ten minutes from the docks?

Sil had a passenger with him.

Guess who?

[Valens]
'Uh, they were together'

the night Mick was murdered?

So who pulled the trigger?

Lawyers are on their way.

Got about ten minutes
to figure it out.

You ever been
to Juniata Park, Sil?

Um..

Uh, it's not a,
not a trick question.

It's just that you were
in an accident out there

uh, the night
that Mick was killed.

Why were you with Lance?

Mick was your friend.

You're both single parents

doin' whatever it took
to take care of your kids.

We had a lot in common.

Yeah, that's strange

'cause that-that isn't
what Adam said.

'Your son.'

'Yeah, I tracked him down.'

You haven't seen him
in a while, huh?

I see him when I can.

Every 15 years?

You must not try very hard.

I mean,
he's right here in Philly.

I'd do anything for my son.

Except stick around.

'See, you preach about family.'

But it's Mick who was the one
who was trying to be a good dad.

But don't you think
his son deserves to know

what happened to him?

I went to see Mick that night.

Where? At the docks?

I heard what happened
to his kid.

I went to the hospital.

[Rush]
With Lance?

[Sil]
No. Alone.

I told him that..

...I was sorry for the match.

For hurtin' him.

But Lance was gonna..

...promote the hell
out of the rematch.

We'd both get rich, you know?

So, you leave the hospital,
and Mick's still alive?

Then you hook up with Lance..

...he's dead.

Lance gave me my career.

And without Lance,
I'd be nothin'.

You're living off
of ten dollar autographs.

Uh, he's gonna get me
back in the ring soon.

I'm only one match away
from bein' on top again.

[chuckles]

When are you gonna wake up
from the spell of that guy, Sil?

[door opens]

- Lawyer call yet?
- Not yet.

In the meantime,
thought you could tell us

what you were doing
in Sil's car in Juniata Park

the night Mick was killed.

I'm sure my attorney
would love to do it.

Why don't you go
fetch him for me, ese?

Good cop, get out.

Wait, wait,
where are you going?

See if your lawyer called.

Whoa, wait a minute!

Look, I-I didn't mean all that.

Brought an associate
to represent Sil.

Got it.

They're both in the lobby.

Now?

Pinstripe suits, red tie.

Okay, got it.

Um, just sit tight

and let me see if I can get
somebody to go down and get you.

- Somebody get me out of here!
- Any more comments, tough guy?

'Cat got your tongue?'

[cellphone ringing]

Umm, I'm gonna get a soda.
Want one?

Yeah.

Hey, Lance.

[panting]

- Let's take a walk.
- Okay.

That guy is loco.

Tell me about it.
It's that Latin temper.

[Lance]
'Yeah, yeah.'

[dramatic music]

So it looks like
he beat you to it.

Uh, "Sil came
and picked me up.

He told me he shot Mick
by the docks."

That's, uh, Lance's signature,
right?

[sighs]

But that's a lie.

Then what's the truth, Sil?

Okay, Sil, get up.

No. No.

Well, I talked to the DA.
Your car, your gun.

Take a jury 20 minutes
to convict you.

It was Lance.

Lance told me that Mick
had agreed to do the stunt.

But he didn't.

Mick said if Lance wanted him
to get back in the ring

he could come tell him himself.

You tell Lance that?

I told him that..

...Mick wanted to be
with his kid.

His son was in a coma.

But Lance didn't care.

And you went along
with whatever Lance said.

Well, we all did.

Except for Mick.

That's what pissed
Lance off the most.

Next time I tell you
to do something

you better damn well do it.

I can't do anything
without you telling me.

And you know why?
'Cause that's how I want it.

[dramatic music]

Now where's that gun?

[music continues]

What the hell is your problem?

I finally bring my kid
to a match

and you throw me
through a table?

Last I checked,
I make the rules.

Not for me.

I'm done dancing
to your tune.

Okay, okay, you're pissed

that your kid saw you lose.

Fine. Okay, bring him
to the next one.

It'll be the best match
he's ever seen.

You will be the champion
for the next two years.

No, thanks.

You leave when I ring the bell.

You got that?

We just got the TV deal, okay?

Do you know how much money

we are gonna make
on the next match?

Clean the crap out of your ears.

I'm done!

Just-just can't handle it,
is that it?

You'd rather be out here
unloading cargo

and busting thumbs?

No more debt collecting.

All aboveboard now.

Oh, well, I'm sure
your kid's real proud

to have a punk loser
for a dad.

[grunts]

See what it feels like
every night in the ring.

[dramatic music]
