Released after ten years, Dillon's greeted by Jake, who lines him up with a job and introduces him to the world of minor league MMA fighting.

just as wrestling. Except you get

to punch the guy.

- Well, it was a hell of a fight, man.

-.

- I warned you about the reverse, didn't I ?

- I thought ...

No, no, no. You don't think, you do.

You do what I say, then you win.

When you do what you think, you f***in' lose.

Look what happened.

You had it in position,

right? What did I say?

I said :
"stay close,

elbow !". didn't I ?

What did you do?

You sat straight up and got reverse.

And threw away a lot of money here.

It cost me big.

Your cut.. Your cage fee's mine.

You have a nice day.

Hey! We gonna work on that nose or what?

Come on, let's get out of here.

Good to see you, man.

Hang in there, Justin.

Wait, wait. Where are you going?

Curfew.

Oh, man. I know that was tough

to watch, but ...

But, you know, Justin

has a point.

You'd be a monster in that cage.

didn't look much

like wrestling to me...

You were All American, you were national

champion. I mean ...

we'd make a lot of scratch

if you'd be fighting.

- We?

- I saw scouts in there.

USMMA, Crush, UFC.

We could run for it. I could be your manager.

I Could help you train.

It's not for me, man.

Ah, come on, man, it's just...

it's wrestling mixed with

a little bit of punching

You are the best wrestler in the world.

I gotta get going.

it's cool, man. Stay and

watch the fights.

Allright, see you in the morning?

I'll give you a lift to work.

- Thanks, but I think ...

- Hey, hey, it's legit.

I'm just gonna take you down there.

Text me when you're ready.

Text ?

Forget it, Rip Van Winkle. A lot

has changed since you've been inside.

Why just not be ready for 08h00 ?

Allright.

Hey.

Welcome back, kid.

- Police! On the floor!

- What?

I said now!

- You holding ha? ?

- No!

How are you doing, partner?

Remember me? I

bet you do.

There it is.

Oh sorry ! That is Detective Spencer.

We thought we'd just come by

and say welcome back.

Welcome, douche bag.

You know, I think it's great you and Jakey

are still together after all these years.

You two are regular Bonnie and Clyde.

Tell me something ...

those three extra years you had ...

was it hard to be away from

your boyfriend all that time?

I bet it was.

But that's what you get when you breaks

a guy's neck.

I owe you

See you later.

BEVERAGES, WINE

COLD BEER:

This it it.

are you serious ?

A liquor store?

Hey, it's a job, get over it.

He knows that you are coming.

Tell him that you talked to me.

What, you're not coming in?

No, I got some business across

town.

you're good, don't worry about it.

Everything is set up.

Can I help you ?

Yes I'm Dillon.

Yes?

He said he might

have a job.

Yes.

I can come back later.
