Amazing what some women will do for a little champagne and fish eggs these

eh?

You're heading the game, Rip.

Here come the goods.

Looking real lean, I got lots and lots of green. My attitude is mean, man,

because I'm a rapping, hip -hopping, loving machine.

Would you shut up?

Oh, come on, Chase, will you?

Man, we're golden.

I mean, the way this stuff just like fell into our laps, it's like a sign or

something, man, I'm telling you. Look, Brian, we ain't made the deal yet.

So just be cool, all right? What could go wrong?

Huh? What could go wrong? Come on, man. Come on. Let's do it.

Did you guys bring the stuff?

Let's make a deal.

Shut up.

Oh, yeah, like we're really gonna be packing heat, like we didn't know you

were gonna frisk us?

How dumb do you think we are?

Somewhere between a cow and a dog.

Hey, Mr. Grunow, how you doing?

I hear you're the main man of the entire left coast.

Just skip the rubdown, kid, and just show me what you got for me.

Sorry?

Looks like it's all here.

Not so fast.

Nice.

Very nice.

You feel like baking soda.

You trying to scam me, Junction? Hey, man, that stuff's as good as gold, man.

say it's garbage. You want to argue with me?

All right, that's enough.

Easy, Rip. Let him go.

I said that's enough.

Rip, don't do that. Rip, put him down!

Okay, he's down.

Hey, hey, take it easy.

If you ever try this again, if you ever mention this, if you ever come within a

hundred yards of me or this boat, you're a dead man.

You got it?

Yes, sir.

Get him out of here.

I can't believe those punks tried to rip you off.

You kidding me?

This stuff is triple platinum, Terry.

It's the best I ever tasted.

He was

a cop and good at his job,

but he committed the ultimate sin and testified against other cops gone bad.

Cops that tried to kill him, but got the woman he loved instead.

Framed for murder, now he prowls the Badlands.

An outlaw hunting outlaws. A bounty hunter.

A renegade.

You know, could someone please tell me why a woman would do something like that

to herself, huh?

You're right. Pumping yourself up, and it's horrible.

Is that why you keep staring at her?

Here, take a look at this.

Yeah, so? What does a day at the beach have to do with nailing a heroin

Eddie Bruno's into more than just heroin.

Will you look at that?

I mean, look at her back. It's like something out of Alien.

You were saying?

About a year ago, Eddie Bruno diversified out of narcotics and now a

of his business is black market steroids.

There's that much money in it? Are you kidding? It reaches all the way down to

the high school level.

A 16 -year -old North County boy died of a heart attack last week on the

football field. Why haven't you been able to name him? Surrounds himself with

overinflated muscle.

Also lives on a yacht.

Cruises the West Coast here from Acapulco to Vancouver.

Stays outside the 12 -mile limit out there. Very rarely comes to shore, only

close up a deal.

Look at that.

Now that's sick. Could someone please tell me what that has to do with health

and fitness, huh?

What, you don't think that women enjoy having some strength and power? Excuse

me, now this has become a political issue?

Eddie, Bruno, steroids?

I have an informant on the inside that tells me Bruno's going to use the power

block gym here as a major distribution point for the West Coast. So let me take

a wild guess here. You want us to get in on the inside.

I hear he does a brisk walk -in trade.

Don't you think they'd be suspicious of any newcomers? Not this week. Take a

look at this.

Right there, huh? Ta -da!

If we lift it, he will come. Is that the idea? And, you know, since this, well,

this is all intrigued by this bodybuilding thing, you know?

Forget about it.

I'm not doing it. See, you can dish it out, but you can't take it, can you?

Can you? All right. On one condition.

Oh, yeah? What is it?

It'll double our chances if we both get inside.

Uh -uh. No way. Oh, yes. Oh, yes. Oh, yes. That is a brilliant idea. You two

guys working out, huh?

You guys can be body buddies.

Seven. That's nine.

Eight. That's ten.

Nine.

And ten.

Nice set, Olive.

Thanks.

I need some spinach.

Hey, hey.

Who's the new pilot?

Cheyenne Kane. She's training for Ms. Fitness.

Yeah? She's nice looking.

A girl like that could go far.

I happen to think her partner's even better looking than she is.

Yeah? I think you're a little late. Looks like your sister's already making

move.

Mind if I make a suggestion?

Sure. I need all the help I can get.

Well, before you squat heavy, you should put some Flexol on your knees and then

wrap them real nice and tight.

Thanks, I will.

Vince Black.

Nikki Taylor. I know.

You can't spend five minutes in here without knowing who you are.

Are you training for a competition?

I'm working my way up to it. This is my cousin's idea.

Oh, she's your cousin?

And criminally insane.

Yeah, I saw her working out. I mean, she's going to do really, really well in

the fitness category.

Everybody thinks you have what it takes to be a champion.

Everybody except my trainer.

Look, I'm going to get back to my workout.

It was nice to meet you. Thanks for the tip.

I'll have one of those orange sticks, please.

Thanks.

Cheyenne, isn't it?

Yeah, that's right.

Cheyenne Kane.

I'm Terry Houston. I own the gym.

I sweat box.

You know, you've got outstanding potential.

Well, I am just starting out, Mr. Houston. If you don't mind my saying so,

you're a very beautiful woman.

And the truth is, that counts for a lot.

Thanks.

A lot of show you put on out there. I work hard at it.

Sometimes hard work just isn't enough.

Just what's that supposed to mean?

Some kind of wise guy?

No, man.

Just saying that, you know, I've never seen anybody get as big as you without

some help.

I think you ought to mind your own business.

Look, man, I just thought you might be able to hook me up with a supplier,

that's all.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Well, if you figure it out, Let me know.

Make it worth your while.

Oh, come

on. Here, here, here. Let me, let me.

Thanks. Hey, I've got a proposition for you.

I need a new training partner.

And you, well, not to make a point of it, but you need a trainer in the worst

possible way.

So what do you say?

Well, I don't think so.

Hon, are you serious about getting into shape or not?

You bet I am.

Then come on.

Let's hit it.

Okay. And make sure that order for Felix the Hat gets out today.

Overnight Express, Terry. Don't screw around with the post office.

It's a one -time mistake, Eddie. Yeah, that's just what my Uncle Frank said

right before they dropped this gas pellet.

Now get out of here.

There's something I want to ask you. Rip been hitting you up for any extra

medicine? No, why?

Guy's just getting that weird look.

You know, we got a big contest coming up. I don't need any loose cannons going

off at the wrong time.

And I thought you were going to ask me about your pet project.

The lovely and talented Nicky Taylor.

She's all right. In other words, she won't get on the program.

Her way's around that.

They said, Terry, you got yourself hooked up with the last girl scout.

Hey, what are you doing here?

Might have found us a new customer today.

Yeah, who?

Some new guy at the gym. His name's Vince Black.

Check this guy out.

I don't like strangers asking about party favors.

Come on, two more sets. Be strong.

Come on, give me ten. Hold the last one. Push it up.

Come on, be tough. Let's go.

Vince, you're going to have to do a lot better than this if you're going to try

to impress my sister.

I thought you said you were ex -military.

I am.

She'd make my drill instructor look like Kiwi Herman.

There he is.

All right, hey, just remember what Eddie said.

When we talk to him, scare him. That's it.

Yeah. I ain't deaf.

Come on, shut up. All right. Come on.

One more.

Push it, push it.

Good, good, good.

Aurora, we've got someone at the desk who wants to join.

Now, Rip and I can spot for Mr. Black here.

Okay, we're almost done.

No, now.

Please. Hey, Black, make it count, buddy.

So Rip here tells me you want to make a buy.

Yeah, and he wasn't that helpful.

You a cop?

Yeah, right.

Just how you want to prove it.

Oh, come on. Would I just walk in here on the first day and try to make a

Some people have more than muscle between their ears.

Anabolic steroids can be hazardous to your health, so let's just say we forget

the whole subject.

Because otherwise it's going to be you and Rip in a locked room and they're

going to be scraping you up with a spatula.

Okay, let up.

Hey, beautiful.

I didn't know anyone was watching.

You better start getting used to that.

Hey, so where's your cousin?

I don't know.

He's not as dedicated as I am.

What's he do for a living?

He's a Harley mechanic.

He lifts tires and chassis all day and suddenly noticed he was in pretty good

shape.

He thought he could make something out of it.

Why do you ask?

Always curious to see how people find their way in here.

I mean, some of these stories you wouldn't believe.

Is it my imagination or are you walking, buddy? I'm not going to be walking at

all. Ah, so your personal trainer is working you out too hard. Mm -hmm. Her

Twin Towers.

That guy, Rip, is a disaster waiting to happen, Bobby.

Yesterday, he flipped out so bad, Terry Houston had to pull him off of me.

Sounds like roid rage.

What's that?

Well, it's when a bodybuilder stacks steroids on top of all the other poisons

that they put inside their body. Makes them snap, makes them go crazy.

That's comforting.

What about Mr. Eddie Bruno?

Haven't seen him.

Just his errand boys.

It's going to be tough getting him on shore.

Maybe a threat to his livelihood might work. What do you mean?

Competition, partner.

Capitalism. Supply and demand, Adam Smith, John Maynard Keynes, Madonna.

Wait, you lost me.

I think it's time we gave Eddie Bruno a run for his money.

You know, Ricky, I'd really hate to see all this effort go to waste.

What are you talking about?

Time's running out.

I don't want to hear about this.

You can't hide any longer.

You're not going to make it acoustic.

It's time to power up.

You're wrong, Terry.

Everybody uses steroids, Nick. Nobody gets to the top without you.

I will.

You're in fantasy land.

Then just leave me there alone.

You won't wind up like your sister.

She refused to go on the program.

I'm not my sister. Right.

Because I own 20 % of you. Forget it.

Whoa, whoa, Terry.

Why don't you lighten up, man?

Why don't you mind your own business?

It's against my nature.

God, this is the most sinful thing I've done in a long, long time.

What, just taking a walk?

A week before competition, I should be back in the gym.

Especially now that all this work is finally paying off.

You wouldn't believe it. I am in the middle of a growth spurt. It's awesome.

Maybe this is the best thing you could be doing for yourself.

I doubt Terry would agree with you on that.

What is the story with him, anyway?

He wants me to take steroids, the serious stuff.

He says I can't win without them.

What do you say?

I say if I can't win without them, I don't want to win at all.

Good for you.

Aurora used to have this friend by the name of Holly Sherry.

She was my idol.

She was the most determined person in the entire world.

She was going to make it to the top, and nobody was going to get in her way.

What happened?

She decided to speed up her training program and started taking Depo

testosterone.

And one night in her apartment, she must have crashed really heavy.

She picked up a gun and she blew her brains out.

And I don't want that to happen to me.

Nikki, you don't seem like the kind of person that would ever let something

that happen to you.

Hey. What's going on? Down there by the water, there's a dead guy. There's a

body.

Everybody, stand back.

Let's get out of here.

So, what's the lie?

Still can't decide.

Eddie, I have to talk to you. Not now, Terry.

Come on, Eddie.

I just can't make up my mind.

Let me see the real one again.

That Brian kid from the other night?

Just washed up on the beach.

Dead? And then some. I saw him as we took him away. This kid looked like he'd

been torn apart by a wild animal.

Rip. It's gotta be.

I told you how he went over the top with Vince Black.

Maybe we should just take him off the stuff.

No. This might not be a bad thing.

Kind of guarantees us we won't be challenged.

Yeah, but sooner or later we're not going to be able to control it.

We'll deal with that when the time comes.

By the way, here's your pickup.

It's a big load.

It's not all for black, is it? No, no, I got myself a couple of new turn -ons.

Nick, you finally came around?

I think so.

And I got me a new girl by the name of Cheyenne.

Ta -da!

Tough call.

Eddie, I've been changing back and forth for over an hour.

Okay, this is the last time, babe. I promise.

What, are you lost?

No, I was looking for Nikki Taylor.

I haven't seen her.

Thanks. Hey, I got something for you, though.

We'll make a whole new man out of you. 50 milligrams of Hannibal.

Keep him.

What are you, nuts?

I got another source, man.

This guy has it all over you, too.

Prime junk at bargain prices.

And he didn't even try to choke me.

Okay, you got their attention. I shook up Hercules like you asked.

Excellent. What about that body on the beach? Did you find out any new

information about it? Yeah, it was a murder, all right. It's a mid -level

dealer named Brian Davis.

Corners report listed 47 broken bones.

Any connection to Eddie Bruno?

Well, I wouldn't bet against it. Hey, listen, do me a favor. Step a little

closer and open up your shoulders a little bit. What? Step a little closer

open your shoulders. Like that. Like that. Come on.

Carrie and Rip keep going to that yacht over there.

Don't look over there.

Mr. Bruno's there. It's Mike.

Guess that he's got his binoculars trained on us this very second.

Okay, here we go.

Holy. Are you out of your mind? Take it easy. Just relax. Grab that. Grab that.

Yeah, boy.

Looks like injectables, but they're only sugar and water. Our buddies will never

know the difference. Grab it. Shake it a little bit. Shake it. Shake it.

Perfect. Take that.

All right, give me some money.

Give me some cash.

Can't even buy a donut with that. It's all I've got.

Yeah, well, you better get a raise.

Here, shake my hand.

Higher, higher. Out of the way. Out of the way.

Ready? I know this great fish taco place.

Wait.

Nikki!

Now what do you think?

What was it then?

I can't explain.

Then don't bother.

I wouldn't believe anything you'd tell me anyways.

Look, I'm not a dealer, and I'm not a user.

Terry put you up to this, didn't he?

Get innocent little Nikki to fall for you. I mean, get her using.

Don't ever come near me again.

Hey, Nikki.

Nikki! You okay?

I'm fine. I'll see you later. Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Are you sure there's nothing wrong?

Positive. Why do you keep asking me that?

Well, I happened to see you train this morning, and you look possessed.

Maybe you're jealous.

I'm just concerned.

Well, I couldn't feel better. This is my time.

I'm peaking.

So back off.

How's the girl? I feel fantastic.

I feel like I could lift a mountain.

Was that hallucinating, or were you adding 20 pounds to every plate you

today? That was nothing. I could have thrown it through the wall, too.

Who are you mad at, Nick?

Power blockchain. Set something up with Lone Ranger and Tano.

You sure?

Positive.

Nikki, you gotta hear me out.

Well, I do.

Look.

I don't deal drug.

Okay? I'm trying to bust the people who do.

I saw you buying.

No, that was a setup.

The guy was my partner. The dealers were watching. It was all for their benefit.

So you're a cop?

I'm a bounty hunter. I'm trying to bust the guy who may have been responsible

for your friend Holly's death.

How can I know that?

Everybody's telling me something different. Why should I believe you and

you anyways?

Are you okay?

I get so confused.

Nikki, I gotta tell you something.

Terry is a major steroid dealer.

A dealer?

Yeah. He works for the guy I'm trying to take down.

You're a liar.

You just want me to hate him instead of you.

No. Just leave me alone.

Geez, Nick.

You got quite a way with the ladies.

Get lost, Rip.

Don't be so temperamental. I got a proposition for you. Yeah?

Yeah.

We want to make a buy from your buddy, old Chief Wounded Knees. You think he'd

be interested?

How do you know about him?

We know everybody at the beach.

Well, you know, he'd have to talk to your top guy.

And who would that be?

Eddie Bruno.

How do you know about Eddie Bruno?

We know everybody at the beach.

I don't think he wants to meet with you.

Then there's no deal.

You go first. Shai scored from Terry Houston.

Still doesn't get us our big fish.

Yeah, but it gets us a little closer.

Hey, Dirt.

The lab said that those pills Terry gave me, FDA prime.

Our little mimes show work, too. They want to set up a meeting, make a buy.

You think Eddie Bruno will show?

Those were the terms I dictated.

Well, great.

How come you don't look so happy? I'm worried about Nikki Taylor.

Shai, can using steroids cause mood swings?

Oh, yeah. Big time.

It's when the first side effects show up. Real rollercoaster ride.

That's what I was afraid of. I gotta go.

You know, it's starting to become very unprofessional the way he does that.

Yeah.

Can't you leave me alone?

Terry's dosing you with steroids.

You're crazy. I'm totally clean.

I've only known you for a few days, right? And I can see the changes myself.

You said it yourself.

Your strength levels are soaring. Your emotions are all over the place. Don't

you think I know, though? Not if he's feeding them to you without you

it.

How could he do that?

My money's on these power shakes.

Probably so loaded they're radioactive.

If you don't believe me, let a doctor test you.

What have we got to lose?

Where's the man? The man said you'd deal with us. What the hell's going on here?

You said he'd be here. Look, I told him. I told him that you'd only deal with

their top guy.

Well, he gets a little bashful around strangers.

Now, maybe if we like the looks of what you brought... I only deal with

principals.

This has been a big waste of my time.

Wait a second.

Come on, guys.

Can't you do something?

I'm sorry.

I don't make the rules.

Man, you two are letting a good thing slip right by.

Hey, shut up.

Easy, coach.

You have been very anxious to meet me.

Why?

Well, all my friends, they tell me that you're a fun guy, you know.

Good.

Let's go have some wine.

Hi, Shy.

Where have you been all morning?

I've been looking for Bobby. Is he here? No, I haven't seen him.

Did he come back to the Winnebago last night? No, I thought he was with you.

Our deal went sour.

He made a big show of leaving, and that's the last I saw of him. Oh, no.

I'm getting a bad feeling about this, Reno.

you do this to me? How could you? Iggy, where's your outfit?

Why aren't you dressed? Your group's up next.

You've been doping me, Terry.

I don't know what you're talking about. Look, look, look here.

I just got your drug test back from the doctors. You're totally clean.

This isn't mine.

I just got back from the doctor and I'm totally off the charts, Terry.

You really want to be a loser all your life, don't you?

You're the loser.

Hey, would you do anything useful with those muscles?

That Edward paid a lot.

But the feedback needs a little help.

Where's my partner? I don't know.

Remember getting any better? Andy, no, Scotty.

On the boat.

I don't know about you, but I could do this all day.

You know, they were right. You are a fun guy.

You want to spend another night in the freezer?

Oh, I don't mind. It's not so bad in there, but I got to tell you, those

steaks are going bad, pal, real bad.

You know something?

You may be the funniest Indian I ever met. Well, I got to tell you, you're the

dumbest drug dealer that I've ever met.

You want to trade insults or you want to get back to work? Well, if I had a

choice of you whacking me or putting me down, I'll take verbal abuse.

Tell me who you are.

I told you I'm the guy who sells steroids.

to tell you this once.

I don't care if you're a cop, FBI, DEA, CIA, whatever. It doesn't matter to me

because you're going to die anyway.

But you ain't a dealer.

Your stuff is garbage.

Is that the same stuff Brian Davis gave you? Brian who? Brian Davis, the punk

you killed and threw in the ocean.

I had nothing to do with that.

That was, what, an employee screw -up. Oh.

But your death is going to be all my doing.

Now, this is the real thing.

Maybe you could stand a double dose and live. Maybe even a triple dose.

But more than that,

it's anybody's guess.

Rip? Stay down, man.

You're on drugs. I don't want to hurt you.

No.

Don't worry about yourself.

Rip!

You're taking a swim.

Thank God.

Hey, man, are you okay?

Yeah.

Steroids.

I told you this stuff was bad for your health.

Come on.

Five, six, seven, eight, and two. Two, three, four, five, six. Single facing

forward. Three, four, five. Come on. Stretch it up.

Good. Now we're going to tap this left foot out. Here we go. And tap.

All right. Tap.

One more set, and then we're going to punch to the front.

Here we go. And punch.

Punch. Five, six, seven, eight, and two.

Stretch it out. Come on. Feel your blood flowing. Go.

Hands overhead.

One, two, three, four.

Hands on thighs. Flat back.

Stretch it out.

One more time.

Reach. Reach.

Hands on thighs.

Flat back. Stretch it out.

All natural, too. You guys don't need drugs to look great.

She's right, you know. You look great.

Thanks. What did the doctor say?

I'm fine.

Apparently, Terry wasn't dosing me for that long.

I guess I still have a chance of being a champion, huh?

Thank you.

You already are a champion.

Hey.

Hi. Not bad.

Hey, you must be Bobby.

Why, yes, I am. It's a pleasure to meet you.

I'm at your service.

Vince has told me so much about you.

He has, has he? All wonderful things, I hope? Oh, yeah.

About how you find all women lifters unattractive. No, no, no, I never said

that. Did I say that? Tell me.

Like something out of Alien sticks in my mind.

Yes, well...

If I would have said something like that, it was way before I met Nicky, and

course, you, my lovely dear.

Well, he also said that you were dying to get into shape.

Well, I am in shape. I work out all the time. Oh, come on.

I can tell I'm a bit firmer than you. No, no, no, no, no. I work out all the

time. I'm on a special lifting program.

Oh, yeah. Lift the burger, lift the beer, lift the burger, lift the beer.

What? What's going on? Hey, hey, hey.

What are you two lovely girls doing? What are you doing? What are you doing?

We'll see you in a couple of months. Couple of months?
