{It's Saturday afternoon. Bobby and Perry are at a gym in downtown Hartford. Bobby, as part of his training for Sunday's match, is about to start an in-ring sparring session with a local kid named Pete Sanchez. Pete is a highly touted amateur wrestler who's looking to break into the professional ranks. As Bobby warms up, Pete chats with his friends at ringside.}
PETE: "So that's when Homer sees a gym and he's like 'Gime, what the hell is a gime?' Then he walks inside and he's like 'Oh, a gime!' Hahaha! It was so funny!"
BOBBY: "Hey, kid, get your ass over here!"
{Pete immediately stops talking and walks over to Bobby.}
BOBBY: "You're here to work. You're not here to play. Do you understand?"
PETE: "Yes, sir."
BOBBY: "Good. Now go over to your corner and wait for the bell."
{Pete walks back to the corner and waits. The bell rings, Bobby and Pete circle each other and eventually lock up. Pete surprises Bobby with an armdrag takedown. Pete's friends applaud his effort.}
PETE: "Yeah! Who's the man? Hahaha!"
BOBBY: "Not bad, kid. You caught me off-guard with that."
{Bobby and Pete stand, circle and lock up for a second time. Once again, Pete takes Bobby down with an armdrag. Bobby angrily slams his fists on the mat. Pete walks over to the corner and brags to his friends, turning his back to Bobby.}
PETE: "Did you guys see that? I just beat Bobby Cairo worse than JJ Biggs!"
{Pete's friends and several other spectators have a good laugh, but Bobby is livid.}
BOBBY: "Hey, Pete, catch this!"
{Pete turns around only to be drilled by a devastating Yakuza Kick. He immediately crumples to the ground while the onlookers gasp in horror.}
Random guy in crowd: "Holy shit! I can't believe he did that!"
{Bobby stares at Pete's lifeless body, admiring his handiwork, and chuckles to himself.}
BOBBY: "Looks like he has more in common with Biggs than he thought!"
{A team of paramedics quickly swarms the ring and begins treating the injured young man.}
BOBBY: "Don't worry, guys. He'll die quickly."
PERRY: "Bobby, what the hell did you do that for?"
BOBBY: "That's my way of teaching the kid some respect. I don't think he'll be mouthing off anymore. Hell, I don't think he'll be able to talk anymore!"
{Bobby chuckles again, but Perry has a disgusted look on his face.}
BOBBY: "Don't go getting soft on me, Perry. I need your support during that match tomorrow night."
PERRY: "Bobby, if you ever pull something like this again you can forget about our contract. You got that?"
{Bobby rolls his eyes and exhales sharply.}
BOBBY: "Whatever you say, boss."
{Bobby grabs his water bottle and heads to the locker room as Perry shakes his head in stunned disbelief. In the ring, the medics are still tending to Pete as the concerned crowd looks on.}
