♪ Oh ya you're
making me shout ♪
All right, let's go.
♪ Making me shout
Again, left right left.
Ohh.
Ooh, you all right there Doc?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I just put too
much into that burnout.
And now I'm paying for it.
Yeah, let me take a look.
Let's see.
Ooh yeah.
You've got some tender
fascia here by the QL.
Mmm.
Yeah, your lats are
pretty inflamed too.
Probably from all those hooks.
Oh great.
Well maybe my trainer should
have eased me into things.
Oh, I wanted you to see
what Rex and I were up to.
Okay, take a deep breath for me.
Right there?
No, that's not-
that's not the right spot.
Is it there?
No.
Lower.
There?
Lower.
Uh-huh.
You think I'm an
easy mark do you?
I hope you are.
You don't tell me nothing!
Man2: Save it for the ring!
What is it, pal?
Seriously.
You tell me what
were you thinking.
Huh?
Do you really want to
challenge a fighter like me?
Really?
Huh?
I'm too pretty.
And too fast.
How far's he going, Rickie?
Oh-ho!
He'll go far.
He'll go down.
All the way to bumsville.
Whoah!
Huh!
Your dog's about to
catch these hands hey?
That's a fight you
don't want to start.
Lizzie.
Hold your boys back.
All right.
You heard him.
Let's get out of here, boys.
Who is that?
Oh, that's Lizzie.
Manager of sorts.
Protecting me just
like old days huh?
Huh Charlie?
You guys know each other?
We go back.
Sarah.
Meet Jack Hudson.
My brother.
So when did you get here?
Late last night.
I got the call last minute
for a fight tonight.
Hey good to see you, Rex!
How're you doing buddy?
Ohhh.
How are you doing?
He did a number on you.
How's your head?
That was a cheap shot.
Oh, that?
No that was nothing.
Just a show to promote
the fight on social media.
Well-
you should've called.
You want to come
stay at the house?
I got a motel room.
I didn't want to impose.
So you train here too?
Uh no.
First time.
Well I see Charlie here is
punching above his weight.
Yeah, I have a girlfriend-
who can put up with
the smell here.
So I'm living the dream.
Right.
Well, I've got to get
a few rounds in myself.
Get the blood pumping.
Maybe one of these tomato
cans'll spar with me.
Well I've got gloves in my bag.
Maybe we should go a few rounds.
You think you can go
the distance, old man?
Without breaking a sweat.
Oh you want some of this?
Huh? Come on.
What you want man?
You're slow cutting
your angles, Charlie.
Keep your hands up
and bob around a bit.
I know my way around
the ring, Jackie boy.
Don't forget I taught
you everything you know.
Ha.
Your moves don't work as good
as you think they do pal.
If you'd used my shoulder roll-
you might be champ by now.
Your shoulder roll
just got you laid out-
old man.
Easy pal.
Jack just doesn't
know his own strength.
Hey.
Looking forward to
the fight tonight.
Want to grab some dinner after?
Maybe.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
Well that was a
bit of a surprise.
What?
Jack's left hook?
No, his visit.
Is it strange that
he didn't call ahead?
Ah, nah.
Jack's not much
of a communicator.
Hey.
When was the last time you guys-
saw each other?
A couple of years.
Used to be close.
Been hard to keep in touch.
I tried.
But you know-
Jack does his own thing.
Well maybe-
this visit can be a
chance to reconnect.
I still remember him
connecting with my jaw.
I'm serious, Charlie.
So am I.
No, okay.
Yeah I hear you, I hear you.
But let's just see
how tonight goes okay?
I haven't seen a beating this
bad since Apollo and Drago.
Jesse, that's Charlie's brother.
Don't forget!
No, I'm sure he's just
warming up Charlie.
Don't count him out Jesse.
He's got a mean left hook.
Is he being too restrained?
Yeah that's his job
as a journeyman.
He'd better be.
He's here to build up the
record of guys like Rickie.
He's not here to win.
Which is why he has more
than a hundred losses.
Being a journeyman is
a regular paying job.
You know, he fights a lot more-
than guys on the
competitive track.
It's an option taken by boxers-
who lose the drive
to be a champ.
That's it!
That's it!
Ah, come on!
Keep the pressure on!
Yeah lets do it!
Break him down!
I don't like this sport.
It brings out the
worst in people.
He's really working
on Jack's eye.
Leave it alone, Rickie.
Let me see your
right for a change.
Give them a show.
But don't go for the eye.
You'll get me sidelined.
The winner!
By technical knockout!
And still undefeated!
Rickie Hitman Morgan!
You're a disgrace to the sport.
We should take you
to the hospital.
You're going to need stitches.
That looks better.
Shouldn't have happened.
A technical knockout
due to cuts-
is an automatic
30-day suspension.
Oh.
That's my paycheque.
For a kid who doesn't
understand how this works.
Did you see what
I did to his face?
Huh?
I knew I'd beat his ass!
But hey papi!
It took a warrior to break him!
It's okay, Rex.
It's the business.
Why don't you come stay with
me until you get better?
No thanks.
Nothing an ice bath at
the motel can't fix.
Is he going to be okay?
Yeah, for sure.
He's a professional.
He'll be fine.
Hey.
Did you hear back from Jack?
No not yet.
His loss probably bothered
us more than it did him.
What is it?
They found a body
at your boxing gym.
You okay?
Yeah, just for a second I
thought it might be Jack.
Hey, Charlie.
Grant.
They said you found the body.
Yeah.
Still no CCTV in here?
You know me.
The only camera I got is an
old Kodak point and shoot.
And I can't even buy
film for that anymore.
What was he doing
in here before you?
I gave him the key.
Lizzie paid extra to have
her fighters come in-
and train after hours.
I sure hope your brother didn't
have anything to do with this.
Landed that big left hook.
Seen this happen once before.
Guy got a slow brain bleed.
Died the next day.
An accident.
Yeah.
But the other fellow
never got over it.
What have you got pal?
I think Rex believes
this belongs to Rickie.
Good job buddy.
Detective?
Charlie.
What the hell happened?
He was a strong kid.
We're going to find out, Lizzie.
Do you know why he would come
back here by himself last night?
I don't know.
Talk to Max, his cornerman.
They're joined at the hip.
Hey Max.
You want to come with me?
I have a few questions for you.
Based on algor mortis-
I'd say he died between
midnight and 2:00 a.m.
When we initially
reviewed the body-
we wondered if Rickie died
because of the boxing match.
Yeah.
But we found a second
set of bruises.
Broken capillaries-
show damage to the skin-
consistent with that of
bare knuckle punches.
Wait-are you saying
there was another fight-
outside the ring?
It appears that way.
Okay.
Well I'm going to reconstruct
the rest of the night.
You think you can
keep me posted?
Yeah.
Rex.
You seem unsettled.
Yeah.
That's one way to put it.
A worry held too close
can't be transformed.
I mean-
I'd be happy to listen
if you want to talk.
A friend is just
having some trouble.
And you know-
I just want to fix it.
Charlie.
You two have great
energy by the way.
Good pairing.
Oh!
No one is supposed to know!
Oh!
Im sure they don't.
I'm just really intuitive.
I won't say anything.
I promise.
So uh-
fixing problems for loved ones-
that can be tricky.
I have some oracle cards.
Uh-
I find they help me-
when I'm stuck.
Uh-
Yeah, no thanks Karma.
I'll figure it out myself.
You sure?
Yeah, thank you.
How long have you been a
part of Lizzie's crew, Max?
Came into her circle around
the same time as Rickie.
I can't believe he's gone.
I noticed you were his cornerman
at the fight last night.
I wasn't much of a boxer myself.
Lizzie put me to
work as Rickie's guy.
Cut-man, trainer,
driver, nutritionist.
Anything he needed.
Well last night, Rickie-
he went to the club
after the fight.
Then he back to the gym?
Yeah.
You drove him?
He didn't want me to.
Had that argument.
Kind of shook him.
What argument?
No one told you?
Jack Hudson came to the
club after the fight.
All bent out of shape.
Charlie.
I've got something.
Seems like the last person to
see Rickie alive was my brother.
We know.
Someone posted this an hour ago.
I'll be back.
How did you know
where to find me?
I figured you'd come
to our old spot.
Listen, I don't need you
hounding me every time I lose.
Okay? I'm fine.
Hound...?
That's not why I'm here.
Rickie Morgan's dead.
I've got to take you in.
Okay?
For questioning.
Jack.
Don't even think about it.
Rex would take you down.
It's not what it looks like.
I have no reason to kill Rickie.
He sidelined you with
that cut above your eye.
You were mad.
I saw it.
If you weren't, why'd you get
back in the ring with him?
Is this my brother asking?
Or a cop?
Both.
And you know what?
You should be
thankful right now-
that the cop in front
of you is your brother.
Right.
Because you're in my corner?
I'm always in your corner Jack.
Come on!
I need you to tell
me the truth now!
No more lies!
I didn't lie.
I told you about Rickie.
You didn't tell me anything
about the second fight.
I had to think, all right?
It's not like I know
what side you're on here.
What side I'm on?
You expect me to mess up!
I don't expect-
What are you talking about?
I bet you wish-
that you'd made sure that I went
back to the motel last night.
Don't you?
Oh, don't turn
this around, Jack.
You said you were fine!
Believe what you want-
Detective.
Fine.
You don't want my help.
Good luck.
You know police can't
interrogate family members.
I told you to bring him in.
Not to interrogate him Charlie!
I thought he'd
tell me the truth.
Looks like he got you more
heated than anything else.
He knows how to push my buttons.
It's all right, pal.
I just need to calm down.
He may have caused you
to jeopardize the case-
before it even gets to court.
Joe come on!
No.
I'm taking over the lead
of this investigation.
No more freelancing from you.
I can't just sit on my hands.
Good!
Well go find the person-
who videotaped their
little rematch Charlie.
That's the witness
we need to talk to.
Aghhh!
It's okay.
You go.
So I saw your fight last night.
A lot of those rounds
were really close.
Too bad you had to hold back.
You ever get used to
that as a journeyman?
Part of the gig.
You are a controlled-
defensive fighter.
You know how to hit a
man without hurting him.
That job takes skill.
You should explain
that part to Charlie.
You know the thing that I
can't quite understand is-
if you aren't attached
to the outcome-
why would you have a rematch
with Rickie last night?
Look.
I was mad about the cut.
I showed poor judgement.
He messes with my livelihood.
And then fronts on social media.
When you were just
trying to do your job.
I'm happy to help the
kid pad his record.
But he needs to show
some basic respect.
So I went down to the club.
And we exchanged a few words.
A few words about what?
Can you believe-
Lizzie hadn't even
told him the deal?
That she had hired
you to give him a win?
So I told him.
And I didn't break
it to him too gently.
He didn't believe he
didn't win on skill.
He wanted to prove me wrong.
So he challenged you?
One-on-one grudge
match at the gym.
No audience, no points.
So we got in a cab.
And we went down to Grant's.
You had to teach him a lesson.
I just wanted to show him
what type of fighter he was.
He's all sizzle.
He wants to go after the belt-
the money-making fights.
Sure, shoot your shot.
But show some respect for
the guys who get you there.
Right, so you didn't hold back.
It was a fair fight.
When I left, he was still alive.
Look.
If one of my punches killed him-
I didn't mean it.
Hey.
I unlocked the victim's phone.
I'll see what else I can find.
Yeah, that's great.
Maybe you can help me
verify Jack's statement.
Did he have an alibi?
Yeah.
Yeah, he said that
he left Rickie alive.
Got back to his motel
at around 12:50.
So if we take his word for it-
and nothing else comes to light-
maybe-
maybe we get a
manslaughter charge.
Didn't mean to hurt the guy.
I mean, still-
he'd be looking at a couple
of years in jail though.
Wouldn't he?
Yeah.
No sign of our videographer
witness at the gym.
Are still waiting on
an autopsy report?
We'll get it soon, I hope.
How's Jack?
Mad at me somehow.
You sure?
Sure he's not just scared?
Uh-
It's the worst day of his life.
And he won't even
let me help him.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry this is happening.
I just remember-
being so thrilled
when my Mom told me-
that I was going
to have a brother.
And then I used to let him
tag along with me everywhere-
even when he was too
young to keep up.
I just-
We were best friends.
I-
I don't know how it all changed.
Charlie.
Why don't you just
go talk to him?
Just tell him-
what you told me.
I always say the wrong thing.
I've got to go.
Hey.
I wanted to check your dressing.
Do you mind holding that for me?
Thanks.
Sorry.
Charlie's worried about you.
Not exactly the visit
I expected, either.
How long have you
two been together?
A few months.
Friends before that
for a long time.
Yeah I think I remember
him mentioning you-
to Mom and Dad one Christmas.
I could tell-
you'd made an impression.
It's nice to be able
to talk about it.
We haven't told our co-workers.
Rules against dating at work?
Yeah, I bet Charlie's
a real stickler.
No, it was me, actually.
I just didn't want it
to be a distraction.
Hmm.
Well I'm sure
Charlie's fine with it.
The job always comes
first for him, right?
He's very dedicated.
It's one of the things
I admire about him.
I'm happy for you guys.
It obviously bothers them
both that they're not closer.
If it was me and my sister-
my mother would have locked
us in a room years ago-
to sort it all out.
Is that what you want to do?
Yeah.
Charlie would love that.
What do you get out
of these oracle cards?
Is it basically like
going to a psychic?
No not at all.
It's just a different
perspective.
You should try it.
Mmmmm.
But actually, first-
I have some results I think
you're going to want to see.
What am I looking at here?
There.
On his back.
And at the base of his skull.
That wasn't made by a punch.
Tramline bruises caused
by blunt force trauma-
with a cylindrical object.
Here.
A basilar fracture.
That is what killed him.
Jack may not have
done this at all.
We can say with certainty-
that the blow to the back of the
head killed Rickie on impact.
And Jack said he
left Rickie alive.
Yeah, that's what he said.
But I'd prefer confirmation.
Yeah, I might be able
to help with that.
I just found a series
of angry text messages-
on Rickie's phone.
You're never getting
off this rock.
This is from Lizzie!
Yeah and after the texts-
there was a FaceTime call.
And this all happened around
the time of Rickie's death.
Jesse, what about the motel?
CCTV got Jack going into
his room just before one.
And didn't leave for
the rest of the night.
The FaceTime happened
after 1:00 a.m.
Which means that Lizzie saw
Rickie alive after Jack left.
This exonerates Jack?
It does!
Okay!
We cut him loose.
Charlie.
You want the honour?
I'm going to follow up with
Lizzie to confirm the FaceTime.
No there's no need for that.
I can do that.
Good.
I'm going to chat with
my source at the gym.
Rex.
Charlie, hey hey.
Hey wait.
If you want to fix this-
with Jack-
this would be your chance.
I think the best thing I can do-
for him right now-
is to find this killer.
Maybe that can wait!
He doesn't want me to!
Look, can I-
Can I invite him to dinner?
Sure.
But don't be disappointed
if he says no.
Come on pal.
Any shady dealings
in Lizzie's past?
I don't know if I should be
getting into that, Charlie.
I mean-
she's made donations to
keep this gym afloat.
I appreciate the discretion.
But you know it's gone too far.
All I know is the
business end of it.
From what it looks like-
Lizzie's what
you'd call a steer.
She signs naive kids-
to controlling
management contracts-
pads their records-
then sells them
off to investors.
How long have you
known about this?
From what I understand,
it's not illegal.
No.
Predatory, though.
Any of these kids ever rebel?
This is just a rumour.
But a few years back-
one of her fighters
tried to leave.
He got injured.
How?
Rumour has it-
she had his fingers broken.
He couldn't box anymore.
Brittle hands.
Who was this boxer?
Is that Rickie's gear?
Hey Max.
You mind if I ask you-
a couple of questions
about Lizzie?
Not much to say.
We have a great relationship.
Can I just get the stuff, Grant?
I'll leave you two
alone for a minute.
Were Lizzie and Rickie-
were they getting along?
Far as I know.
Sure.
Really?
Yeah.
- Because I heard-
that he was pretty upset
because she fixed that fight.
He was more mad at Jack Hudson.
Did Lizzie ever hurt you, Max?
Because if she did the same-
to Rickie-
you don't want that
on your conscience.
She's not the type
you'd want to cross.
If you tell me the truth-
I can help you.
Rickie and I-
were considering
a move to L.A.
A manager there is interested.
Lizzie may have found out
and felt some type of way.
Well-so what did Lizzie do?
Did she threaten Rickie?
No.
For him she hustled.
Got him a fight
with Furious George.
Big influencer kid.
Million dollar bout.
It would have put
Rickie on the map.
He still wanted to leave
after she did all that?
I heard she did worse to you-
for a lot less.
That was just a
misunderstanding.
That's all I can tell you.
Max.
Before you go-
I need one of Rickie's gloves.
Why are you yelling at me?
He's your partner.
You mind telling Rex
what you're doing?
He'll know soon enough.
You mind telling me?
I'm playing a hunch.
Okay pal.
Get the scent.
Find it.
What's he got?
Rex just found
the murder weapon.
Am I in the clear?
Getting there.
Charlie's still
working the case.
Hopefully we'll have
more answers soon.
Oh.
That's a relief.
So can I leave town?
Yeah.
If you want.
But I was hoping you'd
be staying for a bit.
Charlie and I want to
invite you to dinner.
Really?
Charlie said that?
Yeah!
When did you last have a
home-cooked meal with family?
What time should I be there?
You got a minute Lizzie?
Leave.
Superintendent?
You'll never make
it off this island.
That's your message to Rickie-
at 1:05 am.
Is this you threatening your
fighter the night he was killed?
Rickie was upset-
after his fight with Hudson.
He threatened to leave.
So I told him the truth.
He won't make it out
there on his own.
Why didn't you tell him
what Hudson's real job was?
I was building the
kid's confidence.
Did he thank you when
you explained it to him?
He listened to reason.
Yeah, we hung up.
And I went back
inside to celebrate.
Did you tell him
the whole story?
Padding wins-
to sell fighters to investors.
You a steer, Lizzie?
Taking advantage-
of desperate kids
looking for a family?
Advantage?
They should thank
me, along with Jesus-
that I saved them
from themselves.
I am a mentor.
And a businesswomen.
My fighters-
understand that.
If anything-
it was your brother
who did this.
We all saw the video.
But Rickie-
he told you he wanted out.
Just like Max did
a few years ago-
before you had his
fingers broken.
I gave that kid everything.
Everything he had.
Fed him.
Taught him to box.
He threatens to leave?
Disrespectful.
I've got a right
to feel betrayed.
Doesn't mean I had
Rickie clipped.
Where did you go-
after your FaceTime with Rickie?
I was in the club.
Celebrating.
There's witnesses.
So what does it take to
be a working journeyman?
Well-
you've got to have
a strong chin.
If you have a glass jaw-
you're going to get
knocked out all the time.
Then you're just a bum.
And Charlie got you into boxing?
Something like that.
Yeah.
I used to get knocked
around a bit in school.
I taught him how
to defend himself.
But then I fell hard and fast-
for the sweet science.
And pretty soon after that,
I was lighting you up.
Wasn't I?
Well, I mean that's because
I taught you everything-
everything you know.
Saw that coming.
Don't forget it.
He loves to say that.
He tells everyone.
Yeah but the truth be told-
he was a thing of
beauty in the ring.
He was fast and loose.
And could've gone far.
What do you mean by that?
Oh I don't think he was-
No no no no no.
Charlie's a big boy.
He can speak for himself.
Can't you?
What did you mean by that?
Come on, Jack.
I meant it as a compliment.
You're very talented.
You could have been
more than a journeyman.
Mmmm.
Then why aren't I?
It sounds like-
I don't know Jack.
Why aren't you?
Maybe-
because when the biggest
fight of my career happened-
you bailed on me.
What?
The Underhay card?
Mm-hmm.
I had just made detective.
I got my first case.
I couldn't just leave.
I apologized for that.
What-you've been hanging
on to this this whole time?
That was the most
important day of my life.
I lost my step-
the minute I walked out
of that locker room.
Jack-hey!
Nobody was in my corner!
Everybody loses sometimes Jack.
Yeah.
Including my manager
who lost interest in me.
Come on.
So I had to decide-
where to go from there.
I chose journeyman-
so that I could keep fighting.
One fight.
One loss.
And you blame me for everything
that happens afterwards?
That makes sense.
We're upsetting Rex.
You never get tired of
calling me a failure.
But you weren't there for me.
Well I'm the one here on the
phone that you never pick up.
But you'd rather blame
me for all your mistakes.
Yeah.
Yeah you're right.
It is my fault-
I'm a nobody.
I get it.
But-
you don't have to play the
role of big brother anymore.
I found out years ago
that I'm all on my own.
You're off the hook pal.
Thank you for dinner.
I've never seen
Charlie this upset.
And I feel like it's my fault.
I made it worse.
Maybe it calls for
drastic measures.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
So the card you select-
focuses your attention on the
meaningful part of the problem.
Now-
let your intuition
guide you to a card.
Ooooh!
The pillar card.
The pillar.
That one represents
stability and support.
Okay.
So Charlie needs
to support Jack?
Only you can know
the true meaning-
and interpretation of the cards.
Ohhh.
Nancy, we really appreciate
your cooperation.
Um-
If this is about
the gift baskets-
I know nothing.
Gift baskets?
No no no.
We're investigating a murder.
How can I help?
Um-
I understand that you
were running the valet-
at the Cosmo Club the
night of the 16th.
Do you remember this car?
Personalized license plate.
MamaBear?
That's Lizzie's car.
Yes.
Yeah, okay.
Any memory of what time
she might have left?
Look, I know you have to keep
track of a bunch of cars.
It was 1:10 in the morning.
Oh!
That's a-
really good memory.
I remember it special-
because I just came
back from my break.
And Lizzie wasn't
the one driving.
So Bubba.
We have a witness that says that
they saw you leave the club-
right after Lizzie's
chat with Rickie.
Where were you going?
Direct your questions to me.
Why?
Does he have something to hide?
Or do not want him to tell me-
that you sent him
to lean on Rickie?
Things got out of hand?
You killed him instead?
Wait wait wait.
I never did any of that.
You didn't swing a metal rod
at the back of Rickie's head?
No!
I never even went into the gym.
When I got there-
I saw Rickie's car pull out.
So I followed him.
Where?
I don't know.
I lost his tail.
So I went to the
house and waited up.
But he never came home.
Until Grant called me from
the gym the next morning-
we thought he'd taken off.
So-
he didn't listen to reason-
like you said before?
Look, Jack embarrassed him.
He was on a rampage.
Yelling at me.
So I made up a story-
about getting him a fight
with Furious George.
I thought that
would turn his head.
He didn't fall for it.
When you were waiting
up for Rickie-
did you see Max?
So you think-
Max filmed the second
fight with Jack-
and posted it online?
I think that he was there.
Lizzie said that she lied
during the FaceTime with Rickie-
about setting up a fight
with Furious George.
Okay?
It was a lie.
She made it up-
on the spot.
And one other person heard it-
and repeated it to me.
Max.
So knowing that detail-
places him at the gym at
the time of the murder.
You think he's our killer?
I don't know why he'd do it.
I think you should ask him.
Hey Max.
I need you to come
down to the station.
Let's do this the
easy way shall we?
Rex go!
Ughh!
Okay Max.
Ughh!
Come on.
Hey!
What are you doing?
Get off of my boy!
Your boy killed Rickie.
What?
He was your brother!
Max what did you do?
Good job pal.
I didn't kill Rickie.
You had a key to the gym.
You had information-
that only the witness
who shot that video-
would have had.
And we have the murder weapon-
with your fingerprints on it.
One of Grant's ancient
stretching rods.
Must be lots of people's
fingerprints on it.
That's right.
Exactly.
One of Grant's-
ancient stretching rods.
Only the killer and
Rex would know that.
Come on kid.
Tell me what happened.
When I got there-
they were already fighting.
I thought Rickie was
going to pound this guy.
And he'd love to have a
record for his social.
Yeah, it didn't
turn out that way.
Only one more surprised
than me was Rickie.
He must have been embarrassed.
After Jack left I came out-
to give Rickie a hand up.
But I guess he was mad
I saw him get beat.
Told me to leave him alone.
Yeah but you didn't.
Because you were still there
when he talked to Lizzie.
He told her-
that he that he was
going to Los Angeles.
Getting in his car that night.
So when he hung up-
I said, Okay man.
I said, I'm ready.
I said, Let's go.
Mm-hmm.
Called me a leech.
Same as Lizzie.
Said I was going
nowhere with him.
He was going to abandon you.
That's when I grabbed the rod.
I didn't-
I didn't mean to do it.
Yeah but then you-
dragged his body into the ring.
And you posted that video-
to make it look
like Jack did it.
I think, like-
if I hadn't done it-
he probably would
have changed his mind.
You know?
He probably would have
taken me with him.
I love you too, M.
Oh can you tell B that I'll
be there for his birthday?
Okay!
Great.
Okay, I love you!
Bye!
Our families are very different.
Which is why I
wanted to apologize.
No no. - Yeah yeah.
I tried to fix things-
between you and Jack.
You know?
Confront it head-on like
I would with my sister.
I love that you tried.
But-
I know you can fix things-
on your own time-
in your own way.
I'm sorry.
Thanks for meeting me.
Yeah, I wanted to let you know-
I got a confession
out of that killer.
Oh yeah?
Is that why you asked me here?
Talk shop?
Get a pat on the back?
I came to apologize.
I didn't know how
much it bothered you-
that I wasn't there
for that fight.
And I want to apologize-
for saying that you should've
been something else.
Well I suppose I wouldn't
have got so bent out of shape-
if you didn't have a point.
Journeyman is a
respectable career.
Whatever you decide
to do for your career-
I just want you to be happy.
Yeah.
But I think it's time I try
a different kind of fight.
Olympic trials are coming up.
I could take a run at that.
See how far I can go.
Maybe you could teach
me a few things.
Sorry, I didn't hear that.
I said maybe-
you could show me
a couple of things.
Yeah, well-
You know what?
How about right now?
Come on.
Ready?
Yeah.
Come on boy.
Think you can keep up?
♪ Left to right
♪ Left to right
♪ Come on open your mind ♪
Rex! Fast!
Oh don't even start!
♪ You're making me shout
♪ Making me shout
Think you can go the distance-
old man?
Without even breaking a sweat.
♪ Come on open your mind ♪
♪ Left to Right
Left to Right ♪
♪ Oh ya you're
making me shout ♪
All right, let's go.
♪ Making me shout
Again, left right left.
Ohh.
Ooh, you all right there Doc?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I just put too
much into that burnout.
And now I'm paying for it.
Yeah, let me take a look.
Let's see.
Ooh yeah.
You've got some tender
fascia here by the QL.
Mmm.
Yeah, your lats are
pretty inflamed too.
Probably from all those hooks.
Oh great.
Well maybe my trainer should
have eased me into things.
Oh, I wanted you to see
what Rex and I were up to.
Okay, take a deep breath for me.
Right there?
No, that's not-
that's not the right spot.
Is it there?
No.
Lower.
There?
Lower.
Uh-huh.
You think I'm an
easy mark do you?
I hope you are.
You don't tell me nothing!
Man2: Save it for the ring!
What is it, pal?
Seriously.
You tell me what
were you thinking.
Huh?
Do you really want to
challenge a fighter like me?
Really?
Huh?
I'm too pretty.
And too fast.
How far's he going, Rickie?
Oh-ho!
He'll go far.
He'll go down.
All the way to bumsville.
Whoah!
Huh!
Your dog's about to
catch these hands hey?
That's a fight you
don't want to start.
Lizzie.
Hold your boys back.
All right.
You heard him.
Let's get out of here, boys.
Who is that?
Oh, that's Lizzie.
Manager of sorts.
Protecting me just
like old days huh?
Huh Charlie?
You guys know each other?
We go back.
Sarah.
Meet Jack Hudson.
My brother.
So when did you get here?
Late last night.
I got the call last minute
for a fight tonight.
Hey good to see you, Rex!
How're you doing buddy?
Ohhh.
How are you doing?
He did a number on you.
How's your head?
That was a cheap shot.
Oh, that?
No that was nothing.
Just a show to promote
the fight on social media.
Well-
you should've called.
You want to come
stay at the house?
I got a motel room.
I didn't want to impose.
So you train here too?
Uh no.
First time.
Well I see Charlie here is
punching above his weight.
Yeah, I have a girlfriend-
who can put up with
the smell here.
So I'm living the dream.
Right.
Well, I've got to get
a few rounds in myself.
Get the blood pumping.
Maybe one of these tomato
cans'll spar with me.
Well I've got gloves in my bag.
Maybe we should go a few rounds.
You think you can go
the distance, old man?
Without breaking a sweat.
Oh you want some of this?
Huh? Come on.
What you want man?
You're slow cutting
your angles, Charlie.
Keep your hands up
and bob around a bit.
I know my way around
the ring, Jackie boy.
Don't forget I taught
you everything you know.
Ha.
Your moves don't work as good
as you think they do pal.
If you'd used my shoulder roll-
you might be champ by now.
Your shoulder roll
just got you laid out-
old man.
Easy pal.
Jack just doesn't
know his own strength.
Hey.
Looking forward to
the fight tonight.
Want to grab some dinner after?
Maybe.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
Well that was a
bit of a surprise.
What?
Jack's left hook?
No, his visit.
Is it strange that
he didn't call ahead?
Ah, nah.
Jack's not much
of a communicator.
Hey.
When was the last time you guys-
saw each other?
A couple of years.
Used to be close.
Been hard to keep in touch.
I tried.
But you know-
Jack does his own thing.
Well maybe-
this visit can be a
chance to reconnect.
I still remember him
connecting with my jaw.
I'm serious, Charlie.
So am I.
No, okay.
Yeah I hear you, I hear you.
But let's just see
how tonight goes okay?
I haven't seen a beating this
bad since Apollo and Drago.
Jesse, that's Charlie's brother.
Don't forget!
No, I'm sure he's just
warming up Charlie.
Don't count him out Jesse.
He's got a mean left hook.
Is he being too restrained?
Yeah that's his job
as a journeyman.
He'd better be.
He's here to build up the
record of guys like Rickie.
He's not here to win.
Which is why he has more
than a hundred losses.
Being a journeyman is
a regular paying job.
You know, he fights a lot more-
than guys on the
competitive track.
It's an option taken by boxers-
who lose the drive
to be a champ.
That's it!
That's it!
Ah, come on!
Keep the pressure on!
Yeah lets do it!
Break him down!
I don't like this sport.
It brings out the
worst in people.
He's really working
on Jack's eye.
Leave it alone, Rickie.
Let me see your
right for a change.
Give them a show.
But don't go for the eye.
You'll get me sidelined.
The winner!
By technical knockout!
And still undefeated!
Rickie Hitman Morgan!
You're a disgrace to the sport.
We should take you
to the hospital.
You're going to need stitches.
That looks better.
Shouldn't have happened.
A technical knockout
due to cuts-
is an automatic
30-day suspension.
Oh.
That's my paycheque.
For a kid who doesn't
understand how this works.
Did you see what
I did to his face?
Huh?
I knew I'd beat his ass!
But hey papi!
It took a warrior to break him!
It's okay, Rex.
It's the business.
Why don't you come stay with
me until you get better?
No thanks.
Nothing an ice bath at
the motel can't fix.
Is he going to be okay?
Yeah, for sure.
He's a professional.
He'll be fine.
Hey.
Did you hear back from Jack?
No not yet.
His loss probably bothered
us more than it did him.
What is it?
They found a body
at your boxing gym.
You okay?
Yeah, just for a second I
thought it might be Jack.
Hey, Charlie.
Grant.
They said you found the body.
Yeah.
Still no CCTV in here?
You know me.
The only camera I got is an
old Kodak point and shoot.
And I can't even buy
film for that anymore.
What was he doing
in here before you?
I gave him the key.
Lizzie paid extra to have
her fighters come in-
and train after hours.
I sure hope your brother didn't
have anything to do with this.
Landed that big left hook.
Seen this happen once before.
Guy got a slow brain bleed.
Died the next day.
An accident.
Yeah.
But the other fellow
never got over it.
What have you got pal?
I think Rex believes
this belongs to Rickie.
Good job buddy.
Detective?
Charlie.
What the hell happened?
He was a strong kid.
We're going to find out, Lizzie.
Do you know why he would come
back here by himself last night?
I don't know.
Talk to Max, his cornerman.
They're joined at the hip.
Hey Max.
You want to come with me?
I have a few questions for you.
Based on algor mortis-
I'd say he died between
midnight and 2:00 a.m.
When we initially
reviewed the body-
we wondered if Rickie died
because of the boxing match.
Yeah.
But we found a second
set of bruises.
Broken capillaries-
show damage to the skin-
consistent with that of
bare knuckle punches.
Wait-are you saying
there was another fight-
outside the ring?
It appears that way.
Okay.
Well I'm going to reconstruct
the rest of the night.
You think you can
keep me posted?
Yeah.
Rex.
You seem unsettled.
Yeah.
That's one way to put it.
A worry held too close
can't be transformed.
I mean-
I'd be happy to listen
if you want to talk.
A friend is just
having some trouble.
And you know-
I just want to fix it.
Charlie.
You two have great
energy by the way.
Good pairing.
Oh!
No one is supposed to know!
Oh!
Im sure they don't.
I'm just really intuitive.
I won't say anything.
I promise.
So uh-
fixing problems for loved ones-
that can be tricky.
I have some oracle cards.
Uh-
I find they help me-
when I'm stuck.
Uh-
Yeah, no thanks Karma.
I'll figure it out myself.
You sure?
Yeah, thank you.
How long have you been a
part of Lizzie's crew, Max?
Came into her circle around
the same time as Rickie.
I can't believe he's gone.
I noticed you were his cornerman
at the fight last night.
I wasn't much of a boxer myself.
Lizzie put me to
work as Rickie's guy.
Cut-man, trainer,
driver, nutritionist.
Anything he needed.
Well last night, Rickie-
he went to the club
after the fight.
Then he back to the gym?
Yeah.
You drove him?
He didn't want me to.
Had that argument.
Kind of shook him.
What argument?
No one told you?
Jack Hudson came to the
club after the fight.
All bent out of shape.
Charlie.
I've got something.
Seems like the last person to
see Rickie alive was my brother.
We know.
Someone posted this an hour ago.
I'll be back.
How did you know
where to find me?
I figured you'd come
to our old spot.
Listen, I don't need you
hounding me every time I lose.
Okay? I'm fine.
Hound...?
That's not why I'm here.
Rickie Morgan's dead.
I've got to take you in.
Okay?
For questioning.
Jack.
Don't even think about it.
Rex would take you down.
It's not what it looks like.
I have no reason to kill Rickie.
He sidelined you with
that cut above your eye.
You were mad.
I saw it.
If you weren't, why'd you get
back in the ring with him?
Is this my brother asking?
Or a cop?
Both.
And you know what?
You should be
thankful right now-
that the cop in front
of you is your brother.
Right.
Because you're in my corner?
I'm always in your corner Jack.
Come on!
I need you to tell
me the truth now!
No more lies!
I didn't lie.
I told you about Rickie.
You didn't tell me anything
about the second fight.
I had to think, all right?
It's not like I know
what side you're on here.
What side I'm on?
You expect me to mess up!
I don't expect-
What are you talking about?
I bet you wish-
that you'd made sure that I went
back to the motel last night.
Don't you?
Oh, don't turn
this around, Jack.
You said you were fine!
Believe what you want-
Detective.
Fine.
You don't want my help.
Good luck.
You know police can't
interrogate family members.
I told you to bring him in.
Not to interrogate him Charlie!
I thought he'd
tell me the truth.
Looks like he got you more
heated than anything else.
He knows how to push my buttons.
It's all right, pal.
I just need to calm down.
He may have caused you
to jeopardize the case-
before it even gets to court.
Joe come on!
No.
I'm taking over the lead
of this investigation.
No more freelancing from you.
I can't just sit on my hands.
Good!
Well go find the person-
who videotaped their
little rematch Charlie.
That's the witness
we need to talk to.
Aghhh!
It's okay.
You go.
So I saw your fight last night.
A lot of those rounds
were really close.
Too bad you had to hold back.
You ever get used to
that as a journeyman?
Part of the gig.
You are a controlled-
defensive fighter.
You know how to hit a
man without hurting him.
That job takes skill.
You should explain
that part to Charlie.
You know the thing that I
can't quite understand is-
if you aren't attached
to the outcome-
why would you have a rematch
with Rickie last night?
Look.
I was mad about the cut.
I showed poor judgement.
He messes with my livelihood.
And then fronts on social media.
When you were just
trying to do your job.
I'm happy to help the
kid pad his record.
But he needs to show
some basic respect.
So I went down to the club.
And we exchanged a few words.
A few words about what?
Can you believe-
Lizzie hadn't even
told him the deal?
That she had hired
you to give him a win?
So I told him.
And I didn't break
it to him too gently.
He didn't believe he
didn't win on skill.
He wanted to prove me wrong.
So he challenged you?
One-on-one grudge
match at the gym.
No audience, no points.
So we got in a cab.
And we went down to Grant's.
You had to teach him a lesson.
I just wanted to show him
what type of fighter he was.
He's all sizzle.
He wants to go after the belt-
the money-making fights.
Sure, shoot your shot.
But show some respect for
the guys who get you there.
Right, so you didn't hold back.
It was a fair fight.
When I left, he was still alive.
Look.
If one of my punches killed him-
I didn't mean it.
Hey.
I unlocked the victim's phone.
I'll see what else I can find.
Yeah, that's great.
Maybe you can help me
verify Jack's statement.
Did he have an alibi?
Yeah.
Yeah, he said that
he left Rickie alive.
Got back to his motel
at around 12:50.
So if we take his word for it-
and nothing else comes to light-
maybe-
maybe we get a
manslaughter charge.
Didn't mean to hurt the guy.
I mean, still-
he'd be looking at a couple
of years in jail though.
Wouldn't he?
Yeah.
No sign of our videographer
witness at the gym.
Are still waiting on
an autopsy report?
We'll get it soon, I hope.
How's Jack?
Mad at me somehow.
You sure?
Sure he's not just scared?
Uh-
It's the worst day of his life.
And he won't even
let me help him.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry this is happening.
I just remember-
being so thrilled
when my Mom told me-
that I was going
to have a brother.
And then I used to let him
tag along with me everywhere-
even when he was too
young to keep up.
I just-
We were best friends.
I-
I don't know how it all changed.
Charlie.
Why don't you just
go talk to him?
Just tell him-
what you told me.
I always say the wrong thing.
I've got to go.
Hey.
I wanted to check your dressing.
Do you mind holding that for me?
Thanks.
Sorry.
Charlie's worried about you.
Not exactly the visit
I expected, either.
How long have you
two been together?
A few months.
Friends before that
for a long time.
Yeah I think I remember
him mentioning you-
to Mom and Dad one Christmas.
I could tell-
you'd made an impression.
It's nice to be able
to talk about it.
We haven't told our co-workers.
Rules against dating at work?
Yeah, I bet Charlie's
a real stickler.
No, it was me, actually.
I just didn't want it
to be a distraction.
Hmm.
Well I'm sure
Charlie's fine with it.
The job always comes
first for him, right?
He's very dedicated.
It's one of the things
I admire about him.
I'm happy for you guys.
It obviously bothers them
both that they're not closer.
If it was me and my sister-
my mother would have locked
us in a room years ago-
to sort it all out.
Is that what you want to do?
Yeah.
Charlie would love that.
What do you get out
of these oracle cards?
Is it basically like
going to a psychic?
No not at all.
It's just a different
perspective.
You should try it.
Mmmmm.
But actually, first-
I have some results I think
you're going to want to see.
What am I looking at here?
There.
On his back.
And at the base of his skull.
That wasn't made by a punch.
Tramline bruises caused
by blunt force trauma-
with a cylindrical object.
Here.
A basilar fracture.
That is what killed him.
Jack may not have
done this at all.
We can say with certainty-
that the blow to the back of the
head killed Rickie on impact.
And Jack said he
left Rickie alive.
Yeah, that's what he said.
But I'd prefer confirmation.
Yeah, I might be able
to help with that.
I just found a series
of angry text messages-
on Rickie's phone.
You're never getting
off this rock.
This is from Lizzie!
Yeah and after the texts-
there was a FaceTime call.
And this all happened around
the time of Rickie's death.
Jesse, what about the motel?
CCTV got Jack going into
his room just before one.
And didn't leave for
the rest of the night.
The FaceTime happened
after 1:00 a.m.
Which means that Lizzie saw
Rickie alive after Jack left.
This exonerates Jack?
It does!
Okay!
We cut him loose.
Charlie.
You want the honour?
I'm going to follow up with
Lizzie to confirm the FaceTime.
No there's no need for that.
I can do that.
Good.
I'm going to chat with
my source at the gym.
Rex.
Charlie, hey hey.
Hey wait.
If you want to fix this-
with Jack-
this would be your chance.
I think the best thing I can do-
for him right now-
is to find this killer.
Maybe that can wait!
He doesn't want me to!
Look, can I-
Can I invite him to dinner?
Sure.
But don't be disappointed
if he says no.
Come on pal.
Any shady dealings
in Lizzie's past?
I don't know if I should be
getting into that, Charlie.
I mean-
she's made donations to
keep this gym afloat.
I appreciate the discretion.
But you know it's gone too far.
All I know is the
business end of it.
From what it looks like-
Lizzie's what
you'd call a steer.
She signs naive kids-
to controlling
management contracts-
pads their records-
then sells them
off to investors.
How long have you
known about this?
From what I understand,
it's not illegal.
No.
Predatory, though.
Any of these kids ever rebel?
This is just a rumour.
But a few years back-
one of her fighters
tried to leave.
He got injured.
How?
Rumour has it-
she had his fingers broken.
He couldn't box anymore.
Brittle hands.
Who was this boxer?
Is that Rickie's gear?
Hey Max.
You mind if I ask you-
a couple of questions
about Lizzie?
Not much to say.
We have a great relationship.
Can I just get the stuff, Grant?
I'll leave you two
alone for a minute.
Were Lizzie and Rickie-
were they getting along?
Far as I know.
Sure.
Really?
Yeah.
- Because I heard-
that he was pretty upset
because she fixed that fight.
He was more mad at Jack Hudson.
Did Lizzie ever hurt you, Max?
Because if she did the same-
to Rickie-
you don't want that
on your conscience.
She's not the type
you'd want to cross.
If you tell me the truth-
I can help you.
Rickie and I-
were considering
a move to L.A.
A manager there is interested.
Lizzie may have found out
and felt some type of way.
Well-so what did Lizzie do?
Did she threaten Rickie?
No.
For him she hustled.
Got him a fight
with Furious George.
Big influencer kid.
Million dollar bout.
It would have put
Rickie on the map.
He still wanted to leave
after she did all that?
I heard she did worse to you-
for a lot less.
That was just a
misunderstanding.
That's all I can tell you.
Max.
Before you go-
I need one of Rickie's gloves.
Why are you yelling at me?
He's your partner.
You mind telling Rex
what you're doing?
He'll know soon enough.
You mind telling me?
I'm playing a hunch.
Okay pal.
Get the scent.
Find it.
What's he got?
Rex just found
the murder weapon.
Am I in the clear?
Getting there.
Charlie's still
working the case.
Hopefully we'll have
more answers soon.
Oh.
That's a relief.
So can I leave town?
Yeah.
If you want.
But I was hoping you'd
be staying for a bit.
Charlie and I want to
invite you to dinner.
Really?
Charlie said that?
Yeah!
When did you last have a
home-cooked meal with family?
What time should I be there?
You got a minute Lizzie?
Leave.
Superintendent?
You'll never make
it off this island.
That's your message to Rickie-
at 1:05 am.
Is this you threatening your
fighter the night he was killed?
Rickie was upset-
after his fight with Hudson.
He threatened to leave.
So I told him the truth.
He won't make it out
there on his own.
Why didn't you tell him
what Hudson's real job was?
I was building the
kid's confidence.
Did he thank you when
you explained it to him?
He listened to reason.
Yeah, we hung up.
And I went back
inside to celebrate.
Did you tell him
the whole story?
Padding wins-
to sell fighters to investors.
You a steer, Lizzie?
Taking advantage-
of desperate kids
looking for a family?
Advantage?
They should thank
me, along with Jesus-
that I saved them
from themselves.
I am a mentor.
And a businesswomen.
My fighters-
understand that.
If anything-
it was your brother
who did this.
We all saw the video.
But Rickie-
he told you he wanted out.
Just like Max did
a few years ago-
before you had his
fingers broken.
I gave that kid everything.
Everything he had.
Fed him.
Taught him to box.
He threatens to leave?
Disrespectful.
I've got a right
to feel betrayed.
Doesn't mean I had
Rickie clipped.
Where did you go-
after your FaceTime with Rickie?
I was in the club.
Celebrating.
There's witnesses.
So what does it take to
be a working journeyman?
Well-
you've got to have
a strong chin.
If you have a glass jaw-
you're going to get
knocked out all the time.
Then you're just a bum.
And Charlie got you into boxing?
Something like that.
Yeah.
I used to get knocked
around a bit in school.
I taught him how
to defend himself.
But then I fell hard and fast-
for the sweet science.
And pretty soon after that,
I was lighting you up.
Wasn't I?
Well, I mean that's because
I taught you everything-
everything you know.
Saw that coming.
Don't forget it.
He loves to say that.
He tells everyone.
Yeah but the truth be told-
he was a thing of
beauty in the ring.
He was fast and loose.
And could've gone far.
What do you mean by that?
Oh I don't think he was-
No no no no no.
Charlie's a big boy.
He can speak for himself.
Can't you?
What did you mean by that?
Come on, Jack.
I meant it as a compliment.
You're very talented.
You could have been
more than a journeyman.
Mmmm.
Then why aren't I?
It sounds like-
I don't know Jack.
Why aren't you?
Maybe-
because when the biggest
fight of my career happened-
you bailed on me.
What?
The Underhay card?
Mm-hmm.
I had just made detective.
I got my first case.
I couldn't just leave.
I apologized for that.
What-you've been hanging
on to this this whole time?
That was the most
important day of my life.
I lost my step-
the minute I walked out
of that locker room.
Jack-hey!
Nobody was in my corner!
Everybody loses sometimes Jack.
Yeah.
Including my manager
who lost interest in me.
Come on.
So I had to decide-
where to go from there.
I chose journeyman-
so that I could keep fighting.
One fight.
One loss.
And you blame me for everything
that happens afterwards?
That makes sense.
We're upsetting Rex.
You never get tired of
calling me a failure.
But you weren't there for me.
Well I'm the one here on the
phone that you never pick up.
But you'd rather blame
me for all your mistakes.
Yeah.
Yeah you're right.
It is my fault-
I'm a nobody.
I get it.
But-
you don't have to play the
role of big brother anymore.
I found out years ago
that I'm all on my own.
You're off the hook pal.
Thank you for dinner.
I've never seen
Charlie this upset.
And I feel like it's my fault.
I made it worse.
Maybe it calls for
drastic measures.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
So the card you select-
focuses your attention on the
meaningful part of the problem.
Now-
let your intuition
guide you to a card.
Ooooh!
The pillar card.
The pillar.
That one represents
stability and support.
Okay.
So Charlie needs
to support Jack?
Only you can know
the true meaning-
and interpretation of the cards.
Ohhh.
Nancy, we really appreciate
your cooperation.
Um-
If this is about
the gift baskets-
I know nothing.
Gift baskets?
No no no.
We're investigating a murder.
How can I help?
Um-
I understand that you
were running the valet-
at the Cosmo Club the
night of the 16th.
Do you remember this car?
Personalized license plate.
MamaBear?
That's Lizzie's car.
Yes.
Yeah, okay.
Any memory of what time
she might have left?
Look, I know you have to keep
track of a bunch of cars.
It was 1:10 in the morning.
Oh!
That's a-
really good memory.
I remember it special-
because I just came
back from my break.
And Lizzie wasn't
the one driving.
So Bubba.
We have a witness that says that
they saw you leave the club-
right after Lizzie's
chat with Rickie.
Where were you going?
Direct your questions to me.
Why?
Does he have something to hide?
Or do not want him to tell me-
that you sent him
to lean on Rickie?
Things got out of hand?
You killed him instead?
Wait wait wait.
I never did any of that.
You didn't swing a metal rod
at the back of Rickie's head?
No!
I never even went into the gym.
When I got there-
I saw Rickie's car pull out.
So I followed him.
Where?
I don't know.
I lost his tail.
So I went to the
house and waited up.
But he never came home.
Until Grant called me from
the gym the next morning-
we thought he'd taken off.
So-
he didn't listen to reason-
like you said before?
Look, Jack embarrassed him.
He was on a rampage.
Yelling at me.
So I made up a story-
about getting him a fight
with Furious George.
I thought that
would turn his head.
He didn't fall for it.
When you were waiting
up for Rickie-
did you see Max?
So you think-
Max filmed the second
fight with Jack-
and posted it online?
I think that he was there.
Lizzie said that she lied
during the FaceTime with Rickie-
about setting up a fight
with Furious George.
Okay?
It was a lie.
She made it up-
on the spot.
And one other person heard it-
and repeated it to me.
Max.
So knowing that detail-
places him at the gym at
the time of the murder.
You think he's our killer?
I don't know why he'd do it.
I think you should ask him.
Hey Max.
I need you to come
down to the station.
Let's do this the
easy way shall we?
Rex go!
Ughh!
Okay Max.
Ughh!
Come on.
Hey!
What are you doing?
Get off of my boy!
Your boy killed Rickie.
What?
He was your brother!
Max what did you do?
Good job pal.
I didn't kill Rickie.
You had a key to the gym.
You had information-
that only the witness
who shot that video-
would have had.
And we have the murder weapon-
with your fingerprints on it.
One of Grant's ancient
stretching rods.
Must be lots of people's
fingerprints on it.
That's right.
Exactly.
One of Grant's-
ancient stretching rods.
Only the killer and
Rex would know that.
Come on kid.
Tell me what happened.
When I got there-
they were already fighting.
I thought Rickie was
going to pound this guy.
And he'd love to have a
record for his social.
Yeah, it didn't
turn out that way.
Only one more surprised
than me was Rickie.
He must have been embarrassed.
After Jack left I came out-
to give Rickie a hand up.
But I guess he was mad
I saw him get beat.
Told me to leave him alone.
Yeah but you didn't.
Because you were still there
when he talked to Lizzie.
He told her-
that he that he was
going to Los Angeles.
Getting in his car that night.
So when he hung up-
I said, Okay man.
I said, I'm ready.
I said, Let's go.
Mm-hmm.
Called me a leech.
Same as Lizzie.
Said I was going
nowhere with him.
He was going to abandon you.
That's when I grabbed the rod.
I didn't-
I didn't mean to do it.
Yeah but then you-
dragged his body into the ring.
And you posted that video-
to make it look
like Jack did it.
I think, like-
if I hadn't done it-
he probably would
have changed his mind.
You know?
He probably would have
taken me with him.
I love you too, M.
Oh can you tell B that I'll
be there for his birthday?
Okay!
Great.
Okay, I love you!
Bye!
Our families are very different.
Which is why I
wanted to apologize.
No no. - Yeah yeah.
I tried to fix things-
between you and Jack.
You know?
Confront it head-on like
I would with my sister.
I love that you tried.
But-
I know you can fix things-
on your own time-
in your own way.
I'm sorry.
Thanks for meeting me.
Yeah, I wanted to let you know-
I got a confession
out of that killer.
Oh yeah?
Is that why you asked me here?
Talk shop?
Get a pat on the back?
I came to apologize.
I didn't know how
much it bothered you-
that I wasn't there
for that fight.
And I want to apologize-
for saying that you should've
been something else.
Well I suppose I wouldn't
have got so bent out of shape-
if you didn't have a point.
Journeyman is a
respectable career.
Whatever you decide
to do for your career-
I just want you to be happy.
Yeah.
But I think it's time I try
a different kind of fight.
Olympic trials are coming up.
I could take a run at that.
See how far I can go.
Maybe you could teach
me a few things.
Sorry, I didn't hear that.
I said maybe-
you could show me
a couple of things.
Yeah, well-
You know what?
How about right now?
Come on.
Ready?
Yeah.
Come on boy.
Think you can keep up?
♪ Left to right
♪ Left to right
♪ Come on open your mind ♪
Rex! Fast!
Oh don't even start!
♪ You're making me shout
♪ Making me shout
Think you can go the distance-
old man?
Without even breaking a sweat.
