(yelling)

(lighthearted music)

- Eyes wide.

I got back your CAT scan, Leo.

- Doc, you ever have weird dreams?

I mean you dream stuff and it really happens?

- About the scan.

- So I flunked the stupid memory test.

A step past 50 and everything's a big deal.

- But a couple of steps.

- I'm in my prime, doc.

Don't sweat it.

I know it's a little embarrassing

but some people think I'm a human god.

- Look, our insurance states--

- States that monthly checkups for athletes over 50

is mandatory for assessing policy rates.

Blah blah blah.

Stop with the stern glances

and shoot straight.

You upping my risk factor?

What's the prognosis, doc?

- Its always about the money, isn't it?

- What do you think?

You lose this money, you come to me

for some help.

You know I am a friend.

So you can't pay me now?

Do you think I want to cut your fingers off?

(stammering)

No.

(laughs)

- No, no, no.

(laughs)

No.

- Why would I want to hurt my friend

when we can be better friends?

Flora.

(tense sultry jazz music)

Sal, meet Flora.

She's my step daughter.

A very attractive woman, don't you think?

- Yeah, I mean yeah.

- She is a big wrestling fan.

She will be your new business partner,

help run the company,

pay off debts.

- Pleasure.

(lighthearted goofy circus music)

(yelling)

- It's no secret that new WWWT wrestler

the Darkness has brought something

to the league that it hasn't had

in over a decade.

Attention.

- Attention.

- Yeah.

- Yes.

Back in the day when I was wrestling.

- Grab me the towel.

- [TV] Leo the blue lion.

(low humming)

That's a good word, sportsman ship

that went along with it.

- Shirt.

- [TV] These new guys are a whole new breed.

What's happened is WWWT ratings

are above 32% just in the last week

and it's primarily because

of the emergence of this new wrestler, the Darkness.

He's a very violent and volatile wrestler

and he's bringing the ratings up.

- But back when I was wrestling,

guy like this, he would of never got a contract.

You know.

- [TV] Regardless, they got the ratings up.

As you probably know,

his last opponent was completely destroyed.

I mean he obliterated this guy in a very,

and it was disputed match and it was unusually bloody.

- Back when I was wrestling you know,

the blood wouldn't of bothered me a bit.

I loved the mud and the blood and the beer.

(fanfare)

- Leo the blue lion.

- Hey there he is.

Listen I want you to meet Flora.

She's my new--

- Please, no autograph today, Sal.

(tense jazz music)

- Oh darling, you're an idiot.

Nobody likes you anymore

and the fact that you always win

makes matches boring.

The truth is, you're old, sweetie.

- Who is this?

I'm the congo king, six year reigning champ.

Get out of my face.

- Easy, Leo.

- I don't know how to say this.

- What you trying to say, Sal?

- I'm not trying to say anything, I'm telling.

You gotta lose out there tonight, Leo.

- Lose, what are you talking about?

I'm not stoop, Sal.

I'm the premier act.

- Eddie's doing it.

- He won't do it.

- He better do it.

- Or what?

- Or you'll find out, chubby.

- [Woman] Can't believe you convinced me to do this.

- I've snuck in here 100 times

and nobody cares.

- 100 times?

- Can't afford it, mom.

Trust me, each ticket is like 10 dollars.

- Hey Leo the blue lion.

- Teddy the tank.

- Hey you know what, Sal's lost it.

That goofballs trying to turn

all his cash names into jabronis.

- Yeah I know.

Hey see you at beer night?

- Oh never mess it.

Break a leg.

Oh Everett, hey.

I want my Barbra Streisand CDs back.

Just bring em back.

- And here we are at the Monster Dome

for another fabulous night of wrestling with Leo

the blue lion and he's fighting the unknown Diamond.

- Reminds me back when I was wrestling, you know.

- There's another packed house here

at the dome tonight.

The fans are going crazy, they're climbing the rafters.

Should be a good night here

and he's going for his 112th championship

victory in a row.

- Nothing like being in the dome.

Back in the day when I was in the dome,

there were people shouting.

(grunting)

- I just want to say, it's a real honor

to be in the ring with an old timer like yourself.

You're an original, man.

I used to watch you when I was a kid.

That kind of hurts.

I thought you liked to take it easy.

- You wanna talk smack to me?

- I'm just making small talk, man.

I don't want you to feel bad about losing.

- I'm not losing to you or anyone else.

(grunting)

- Hammer lock it.

Hammer lock him.

- Here we go.

- Yes.

Did you see that, mom?

He hammer locked him.

(grunting)

- Camel press submission hold, no funny stuff.

- Whatever man.

- No Leo, no.

Yeah.

(shouts)

Yes.

(grunts)

(groaning)

(cheering)

- One, two, three

- Blue lion, yeah!

- And it's just another fabulous night

here at the dome.

Leo the blue lion, king of the congo.

Wrapped up another victory.

Wish you could of been here.

(laughs)

(TV in background)

(somber tense horn music)

- That was a mistake, darling.

- I talked to Sal.

We worked it out.

- Excuse you?

That won't be happening again.

If you ever go behind mommy's back

to get permission from daddy,

I will put on all my rings and personally

beat your face.

- What are you doing here?

This is my room.

Get away from me.

- What’s going on?

Take a hike.

- Next time.

You'll listen.

- No you'll listen, you damn stooge.

You can't work us over.

Leo's the champ, number one.

(tense dramatic music)

What do you think you're doing?

I'll have you banned from the federation so fast.

(crunch)

(dramatic music)

- Stop it, stop it.

I'll lose, I swear I'll lose.

- You piece of...

(TV in background)

- You still coming to beer night?

- Excuse me.

- You shouldn't sneak up on people

got a pen?

- What for?

Nevermind,

what I want to know is do you know any

of the wrestlers?

- Do I know them?

- Yeah like the Darkness.

- Look, I'm busy.

- But you're just standing here.

Do you work here?

- Do I work here?

- Can you show me to the Darkness.

- Get out of here, kid.

- Leo, Leo the blue lion!

Leo, did you get my note?

I've sent you over 100.

What the heck happened to your face?

I can't believe he tried

an Indian death lock on you.

Everybody knows you're the king of submission reversals.

What a dough.

- [Woman] Tommy.

- He never saw it coming, mom.

Just like the fight last year against Stone Ripley

when he tried to bow and arrow lock

and you forked him with a Texas death leave.

I was looking forward to meeting you for years!

I really have.

Before he left, my father would say

you're the best wrestler in three states.

I say you're the best in the whole Midwest,

maybe even the world!

Will you sign my chest?

- Tommy.

- Look, I left my car running.

- Well, see you next time.

You're the best, ever!

(TV in background)

- So what are you gonna do?

You think maybe it's time

to break out that gun collection, huh Leo?

Come on.

You'd of murdalized that guy

if he wouldn't of kamikazed ya.

New guys are all full of themselves.

Bunch of crowbar.

You know they know exactly what they're doing

and they're dangerous.

Someone should notify the league.

Don't you think someone should notify the league.

I think someone should notify the league.

- You're still the champ, Leo.

You'll always be the champ.

Love em.

- Damn it, Leo.

Every single time he gets depressed

he drinks himself into a stupor

and passes out cold.

You could drive semi truck through

this kitchen and he wouldn't wake up,

Come on, Everett, I'll drive you home.

- Sweet dreams, pally.

(TV in background)

(upbeat goofy music)

(shouting)

- I want to wrestle the Darkness.

- How many times do we have to have this conversation?

My time is money, Leo.

You lose value every time you step in here.

- Flora, what if I won?

- What are you talking about?

- What if I beat the Darkness?

- You're right.

Seriously, Leo.

Do you have a learning disability or something?

- We'd lose fans by the thousands.

Just forget about it.

- Besides, I don't think the Darkness

would let you win.

He'd rip your fat face off.

- I have a fat face?

- Fellas, are you getting a little light

on top out there?

Is your hair thinning?

Getting on in years?

You feeling like you're being laughed at

at the club or as you walk down the street

or as you get off the bus?

Well let me tell you about a special product,

a miracle product really.

We have a special offer today.

$129.99 for a six months supply

that could change your life.

- Do I have thinning hair?

- Good dazzling hair.

- I have thinning hair.

(groans)

- You'll be losing this one, Leo.

- We got your new contract, Leo.

Come on, Leo.

- You never used to talk to me like this.

- It's a different world, Leo.

You're not cut out for this place, anymore.

Things are changing.

- I can change.

- [Flora] I don't think so, Leo.

- Sal?

Okay, Sal.

- He gets you in a double leg lock,

you don't kick out.

You lose.

(tense dramatic music)

(TV in background)

- Leo the blue lion versus the animal Babe.

- [Announcer] Animal Babe is in the house.

It's gonna be a regular cat fight tonight.

- I used to fight guys like this.

Big bats, huge bats.

- Yeah go Blue Lion.

- She's a chick.

Those are boobs.

- Boobs?

- Good clean fight, no biting, no scratching.

Take your corners.

- Boobs?

- Yeah.

(shouts)

- Take it easy, Animal.

- Kiss off, Leo.

This is my fight.

- Now that's quite an unconventional start

for Leo the blue lion in this match.

- Get off.

(shouts)

- Yeah, leg swing reversal.

Ankle breaker, paralyze.

(grunting)

- Don't get stiff on me.

- I'm not putting you over, Leo.

I've helped you your entire career.

I could of taken you five years ago.

(shouts)

(grunting)

(grunts)

(cheering)

Want to see more?

- Wait a second, look at that.

- That's a submission hold.

(grunting)

(shouts)

(cheers)

- You want to see more?

Yeah.

- No blue lion no.

- Yeah!

- It's over, it's over.

- Yeah.

(cheering)

Who's the king of the congo now, Leo?

Yeah.

Animal Babe is the champion.

(cheers)

- Teddy, you scared the crap out of me.

- Stinking sellout.

- What?

- You heard me.

I said you're sellout.

- I had no choice.

- Come on, Leo.

You need this league.

- Sal said you were doing it.

- Of course Sal said I was doing it

cause Sal's crooked as a corkscrew.

This guy'd sell his own grandmother out

if he thought he'd make two bucks off of her.

He's got no conscience to speak of, Leo.

He'll say anything.

- I'm just getting old.

- Yeah those are Sal's words, not yours.

- My hairs thinning, I had to buy some stuff.

- What the hell has gotten into, Leo?

You get roughed up a little bit, you turn into a stooge?

- I'm just getting old.

- Fine Leo, you're getting old.

You want to bend over and take this?

Want to be a jabroni for Sal, do it.

But you're doing it alone.

I'm not buying into this retirement trip.

- So Animal, that must of been nearly

the biggest upset in federation history.

What was going through your mind

in the final moments of that match?

- I want the world to know that I'm not a nobody.

I'm in this league to win.

- You know, back when I was wrestling.

- Does that mean, Animal, that you're going

to face the Darkness?

- That's exactly what it means.

- I think that about wraps it up tonight

here at the Monster Dome.

- That's a show there.

(low tense dramatic music)

- What the heck was that?

- Go away.

- What were you doing out there?

- I don't want to talk about it.

- Don't want to talk about it?

- I don't want to talk about it.

- You could of easily taken that girl,

she was a joke.

- Look, even the greats have bad days.

- Come on, you had text book screwdriver

set in the first 30 seconds

and you just let her slip through your fingers.

Remember the time when you fought Ivan the great

and he had you in a double leg lock

and you did have half nelson reversal

and kicked him off and swept him

into a death pretzel?

Remember that time?

That's wrestling.

- Listen you're a real big fan,

I'm impressed, okay kid.

- It's Tommy.

Remember when you fought Captain Claw

and he had you twisted in the ropes

and you spun yourself out

and pulled a classic folding chair face bash?

Remember that time?

You're a classic, the greatest.

How could you let that girl beat you?

- Listen, I was hoping I could get an autograph.

- I would love to sign and autograph for you.

On your face.

- I'm off hours.

- Oh didn't notice ya.

It's Leo the big blue butt face.

- I could sign it.

- Thanks.

Wait, it's for you.

It's a Leo the blue lion magazine.

It's pictures of you doing all this really cool stuff.

- Oh thanks.

- You're gonna kill the Darkness.

I can't wait.

It will be the awesomest because you're the best.

(laughing)

(soft country music)

(grunting)

- You're hurting me.

Please stop.

I don't feel so well.

Stop please.

Help me.

(growling)

- Mace?

You're a freaking wrestler.

You don't need to use mace.

(screaming)

It burns!

- Tommy, Tommy, Tommy.

Tommy.

- Blue lion, he saved me.

- What happened?

- He maced them, mom.

- They were pushing Tommy.

It didn't look so good.

I maced em.

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

Kids are real jerks, you know that?

- This lovely guy here.

This is a exact replica

of the famous statue of David

by the famous Renaissance sculptor Michelangelo

and we have a special deal on this today.

It's gonna bring some of the beauty,

some of the, some of the finer things

You wanna pick up that phone

the natural order of things in the federation.

- You know, things are amok, Alan.

- He's starting an intense chain of events.

What's next?

- What's next?

(upbeat goofy rock music)

(indistinct announcer)

- Alright, bring it in.

Clean fight, no biting, no scratching.

Corner.

(shouts)

(grunting)

(groaning)

(grunts)

(crowd murmuring)

(soft guitar music)

- Look, the lion has the midget in a headlock

and he appears to be slapping him.

- Wake up, wake up, wake up.

(groans)

(grunts)

- Come on, Leo.

Punch him off, punch him off.

Punch.

(shouts)

- Leo, you wanna give up?

- Come on.

- Who's the big man now, Leo?

I'm the big man.

Slayed the lion.

I am the congo kid.

Who's the boss?

Have a nice shower, Leo.

Game over, man.

(somber parlor music)

- What the heck was that?

What's going on?

I don't understand what's happening.

You just gave up.

- I didn't have it in me.

- Didn't have it in you?

- I didn't have it in me.

He was a better fighter.

- Better fighter?

A midget.

I just don't understand how you could

let a guy like him beat you.

- He had super human strength, okay?

- But I was really counting on you out there.

- You count on me?

- Yeah I wanted you to win for my birthday.

Told my friends you would win.

I thought you would win this one.

- I'm sorry I let you down.

I didn't know.

- It's okay, you'll take him next run.

So what do you think?

Can you make it?

- I really don't think...

Sure kid.

- Bro, totally!

Brutally.

You're the best.

Really, I knew it.

I knew you would come.

My mom said you might not

but I knew you would come.

Are you gonna wear your stuff?

My friends will freak out.

- Your friends know me?

- Yeah, some.

- I was beginning to think you were my only fan.

- Yeah well they don't really.

They're not very smart.

They're sellouts.

- Sellouts?

- Yeah some of them really don't watch wrestling

anymore, some of them like football.

Some of them are just sellouts.

Okay, they like the Darkness.

But don't worry, they'll see what they're missing.

- Thanks for the invite.

- You rock, you're the best.

Really my friends, they're not so smart.

Don't let them get you down.

- Okay.

- Remember, you're the best in three states.

- Okay.

- Well see you Tuesday.

- Alright.

- You're the best.

Ever!

- Sal and I have something to tell you.

- It might be easier for him if you, you know.

- Okay just this once

but remember Mommy and Daddy are a team.

- Yeah.

(laughs)

She is amazing.

(machine buzzing)

Look Leo, I got good news, good news,

and bad news.

Good for me, good for me, bad for you.

So the good news, Flora and I are getting married.

Just so happens that Flora's family

thinks I'm awesome.

(laughing)

- Welcome.

- Just take the damn picture.

- And Flora kinda likes me

and well I kind of like her too.

- Yeah I got that part.

I can lose some fights, Sal.

I understand that now.

You need me to lose I'm okay with that.

- Sorry Leo.

It's actually worse than that.

Your insurance premiums are too high.

A quarter of a million dollar policy

gets pretty pricey.

- I don't need life insurance.

- Yeah you do.

Its a league regulation.

Flora, she wants to run this thing by the books,

you know, nothing funny.

- Nothing funny?

Everything about hers funny.

Sal.

- Sorry, Leo.

We're giving you one more fight.

Show em the congo king.

Talk about it later.

(upbeat goofy music)

(shouting)

- I just asked him and he said yes.

Leo the blue lion.

- Tommy, how many more friends do you have to call?

We're running out of minutes.

- Alright, mom.

I gotta go.

We're running out of minutes, bye.

- Well I sure hope he comes.

- Mom, I didn't imagine it.

- Well you told all your friends.

You know, some times adults can be flaky.

- What's flaky?

Don't worry mom, he's coming.

- [Machine] You have one new message.

- [Man] Why the hell do I bother

to fill out the monthlies if you're not gonna read.

- [Machine] Message deleted.

- [Man] You've reached Teddy the tank.

I'm not here right now

because I'm bending some fish into a pretzel.

Leave a message and I'll call you back.

(cheering)

- This is what a head lock feels like.

(door bell)

Leo!

- Jonesy.

Janice, Dan welcome.

- Sorry, I thought you were Leo the blue lion.

Come on, let's go.

- We can only stay for a second.

- [Leo] Hey, want to go to a party?

- Access to liabilities.

Cash flow.

You know you just got to pour over earnings reports

yeah a lot of its in your gut though,

you know, right here.

(door bell rings)

(shouts)

(screams)

(laughs)

(goofy circus music)

- No way.

- He's got tons of presents.

- Awesome.

What is it?

- Its for long nose hairs.

Its one of those trimmers.

- Sweet, thanks.

(goofy circus music)

- Get him.

(shouting)

Awesome.

(roaring)

(roaring)

(goofy circus music)

- Leaping Larry swung underneath

and grabbed ahold of my ankle.

- And he tricked him and the blue lion

fell face first in the mat

putting Leaping Larry into the perfect position

for a double mama submission hold

but the blue lion pulled a back bend

in the last second, pinned him

to the mat at same time and scored

points in the reversal.

(cheering)

Hey Francis, meet Leo the blue lion.

- You mean fancy pants?

(laughs)

- Fancy pants, I like that.

- Can I show you something really cool?

(soft mysterious music)

So when are you fighting the Darkness?

- Those are haunting.

- My mom makes a new one every once

and awhile when she has a car a tharsis.

I help her hang them.

- They're beautiful.

- Thanks.

It shows how many times my mom has changed.

She changes a lot, doesn't she?

That's when she, that's when she...

(soft mysterious music)

(laughing)

- Thanks for coming.

Never had a famous person in our place before.

(laughs)

- Thanks for having me.

It's good to be famous again.

- Sorry the cake burned.

- No it was great, that was fine.

- It's so weird that you're here.

Thanks for coming, really.

- Alex, is Tommy alright?

- He's so happy, thanks to you.

He's been practicing those moves forever.

- No I mean the doctor's appointment.

- It's just, it's just a thing.

- What kind of thing?

- It's just.

His heart.

He uh.

It's a rare thing that happened.

He, he had a bad fever when he was a baby,

caused problems.

- Oh okay.

See ya.

- See ya.

- See ya.

- Wait.

Kids are all sleeping.

Would you care for a beer?

- Oh.

Yeah, now you're talking.

How bout, lets party huh?

(somber horn music)

Pretty sweet tattoos, man.

For a gay guy.

You know I a tattoo artist.

- What you put in that rum and coke?

- Oh you know, rum and rum mostly.

Looks like it's a little too much for you there, Casanova.

Anyways as I was saying,

I know a tattoo artiste, he's an old friend actually.

Hello, Leo?

Leo the blue lion?

Fancy pants.

- What you say?

Leo the blue lion?

- You know who this guy was?

He's a local wrestler.

He used to be kind of a legend

but now he's pretty much an embarrassment.

- Yeah I remember this guy.

He was the congo king wrestler, right?

Wow, this guy used to be a tough guy.

He was a tough guy, right?

Man my little brother said that

yeah he loved him.

- Lost his edge I guess.

- Yeah I don't know, I mean have you seen

any of his matches recently?

They're so pathetic, it's hilarious.

Seriously, sometimes I like to get drunk

and I watch for therapy.

(laughing)

(mock growling)

Leo the blue lion.

I got a million.

That's a piece of work.

I had no idea.

- Brilliant, absolutely brilliant.

- I have to call my little brother right now.

- Wait till you're finished, then call him.

- Call him right now.

You should get a photo of this.

- You'll see it in the ring my man.

Fancy pants.

- This is over.

(soft tense dramatic music)

(trimmers buzzing)

(phone rings)

- Hello?

- Alex hi, it's Leo.

Hey listen, do you think Tommy and his friend

would like to spend some time at the gym with me,

help me train?

- We can get you ready to fight the Darkness.

- You can work with Everett

and be junior trainers.

- Junior trainers?

- Everett, this is Tommy and his friend, they're uh.

- Jones.

- Really?

That's unusual.

- What?

- Your names.

Tom Jones.

- It's not unusual.

(laughing)

(It's Not Unusual)

- What are your legs in atrophy?

I can pump iron with my two 64 year old sisters.

When Leo was a young lad like yourselves

he would of knocked twice as fast.

He took varsity state as a freshman.

Had a full ride to ISU

when he became number one.

They're just kids.

Why when I was you're age.

I could lift a couchful of these punks.

You think you've got a spit of worth?

You aint got nothing.

Is that really all you can do?

Cause I thought you were the champ.

Maybe I was mistaken.

Leon's been decorated more times than a Christmas tree.

- All this stuff is old.

- Yeah well we all get old.

Even Leo.

(shouts)

(goofy circus music)

(shouting)

- Darkness is just pouncing on Alex.

This looks frightening.

- I don't like this.

I don't like nothing about it now.

(tense dramatic music)

Oh man.

- The animals down, the animals down, Smiley.

Man and this is the fighter

that ended the longest winning streak

of any classic fighter, Leo the blue lion

and now Animal Babe is down for the count.

Paramedics coming into.

Yeah the paramedics are on her.

She's not moving, she's not moving.

Oh I'm telling you man, this Darkness.

Somebody needs to straighten the Darkness out.

- There's a new king and his name is Darkness.

I take everyone.

- It's been confirmed, ladies and gentlemen.

WWWT fighter the Animal Babe

has been hospitalized and she is in a coma.

Its true.

Given her match with the now infamous The Darkness.

- I don't like that.

I don't like the dark.

- Retirement catches us all off guard.

But embracing true adulthood can lead

us in the richest stage of life.

Consider Gandruski Meadows.

20 beautiful acres of wooded paradise.

18 hole miniature golf course.

Free all you can eat.

- Sal, great to hear from you.

Shut the hell up, Flora.

Sal hi, listen I've got some good news.

I've got some news.

Listen Sal I can't wait to tell ya.

I'm retiring, you won't have to worry about me anymore.

(shouts)

- Fellas, are you getting a little on top out there?

Is your hair thinning?

Getting on in years?

You're feeling like you're being laughed

at the club or as you walk down the street

or as you get off the bus?

Let me tell you about.

- What? - Flora.

I need Sal, he there?

- [Flora] What do you need Leo?

- I'd really prefer Sal,

it's a private matter.

- [Flora]Really Leo?

- Just tell him there's something

I need to talk to him about

and tell him its important.

- Heres how it works.

(crying)

(door bell rings)

- I took him in on Tuesday to see the cardiologist,

he's had trouble with his heart

ever since a high fever when he was four.

They said the likelihood of complications

is really rare

but his heart got bad anyway.

He's already survived two heart attacks

and open heart surgery.

Maybe if we win the lotto we might break even.

He's been taking all these blood thinners.

They're supposed to help

but that test that he took,

it shows all these blockages

and this time they're in all the wrong places.

They can't fix it with surgery, Leo

and he's probably gonna have another heart attack.

I don't think.

He's not going to.

(dramatic music)

(soft upbeat pop music)

- Hi, Leo.

- Hey, Tommy.

- What's wrong?

- Oh nothing I needed to tell you something.

- [Tommy] About wrestling?

- Yeah.

- Blue lion, do you ever get scared?

- Yeah.

- You scared of the Darkness?

- I don't know.

Yeah I guess.

- I'm scared too.

- Of what.

- Well what if you don't beat the Darkness?

- Why are you worried about that?

- I don't know, I just am.

- You can tell me.

- I don't doubt you.

You are the best in three states

but sometimes I feel like if you can beat

the Darkness then my dreams will come true.

I want to be the next blue lion.

- You do?

- Yeah, you're the greatest.

I want to be great too.

I want to get in the ring

and pull a somersault and knuckle buster

but mom says I'm in no condition for wrestling.

- I just know if you believe in something enough

it will happen.

- Then there's no reason to fear the Darkness,

you'll destroy him.

- Tommy.

- Yeah?

- Hurry up and get back in they gym when you can.

Everett says he really needs you.

- Tell him I'll be there.

- Alright.

(tense instrumental music)

- Flora really likes the color.

- It's lovely.

- Listen Leo, I haven talked to Flora yet

but I'm looking to get you

in the ring with Clive Temples.

The Darkness.

There's lots of guys that can't stand the brute.

In fact, I can't get anybody to face him.

I need a real champion, Leo.

- The Darkness, but what about that coma thing?

I thought that'd be a problem.

- No problem, no problem.

I mean accidents happen, people get hurt.

This is wrestling, not patty cakes.

Its what we have insurance companies for, Leo.

- I don't know, Sal.

- You'll make more than usual.

Stands will be full.

- I'm not sure.

I haven't been doing so well.

I got this back thing.

- Look Leo, you're on your way out.

Don't you want to go out with a bang?

Go out by some monster champ

instead of some midget.

- Isn't there someone else?

(phone rings)

- You're scared, aren't ya?

- I got to take this.

Alex?

- We wanted to thank you for being a friend

and we wanted to let you know

that our specialist notified us today

that Tommy's at the top of the list

for a heart transplant.

Last week they said it would be long shot

but when the committee reviewed his case,

they decided he should be given top priority.

- I'm getting a new heart.

You were right, you're gonna mess him up.

(roars)

(roars)

(laughs)

- And welcome back.

As promised, we're here with

the mysterious over night sensation The Darkness.

- You know Darkness, back in the day when I was--

- Well it's changed.

- Bro, totally.

You're the best I knew you'd fight the darkness.

I knew it.

(gasps)

- [Darkness] It is time to put fear back into the ring.

- Well you know what, fear excites me

and back in the day when I was--

- You know, I'm not trying to put these kids

in the hospital it's just happening.

- Tommy had some chest pain today

but all of our tests show that he did

not have a heart attack.

- Oh thank god.

So he's going to be okay?

- Well he's okay for now

but his condition is still very fragile.

Now sometimes this temporary situation like today

won't cause any further damage but it's hard

to predict when these vessels

will completely close off.

- Which is why we're going to get a heart transplant.

That's why he's at the top of the list, right?

- Well medially speaking he is at the top

of the list but you have to address these problems

with your insurance.

They have not approved the procedure, Alex.

Without their approval or some arrangement

for how this will be financed,

committee won't give the next heart

to Tommy, it will go to someone else.

(tense mechanical music)

- They won't cover it.

Most insurance companies don't cover heart problems.

We can't switch to one that does

because its a preexisting condition.

It's not cheap.

I've already talked to everyone I can.

The hospitals willing to reduce

the cost significantly

but we already owe so much

and it's still a lot.

- How much?

You mentioned something about extra money,

fight the Darkness?

- I talked to Flora and she's against it.

- Hey you need a wrestler

and I'll do it for 250,000.

(laughing)

- 200 and?

I was worried maybe you wanted a million.

I was thinking more like 200.

Besides, Leo you were right to decline.

These new guys are killing each other out there.

You wouldn't last.

Besides Flora says.

- I need the money, Sal.

- I aint got it.

You know, I got this business to run.

Besides, Flora wouldn't approve.

- Maybe you should get an accountant,

help balance the checkbook.

(door bell rings)

- Enter!

Take off your shoes.

- It's really awkward to ask you this,

its just I don't know who else to talk to,

I don't know who else I can ask.

You know about Tommy.

Well you see he needs a new heart,

a heart transplant.

It's a cure he won't be sick anymore.

- That's wonderful, Alex.

- That's great.

- But the thing is is our insurance,

they won't cover it and we already owe so much,

we can't get the financing.

- How can you be so sure that it will work?

- It will work.

- They don't always work.

- John, I need the money for Tommy's transplant.

His condition is terminal if he doesn't get it.

Please, I'm asking you as a friend to consider

helping Tommy.

Think of Jones, if it were him.

- Alex, we can't help every sick child.

- Every sick child?

This isn't every sick child, this is Tommy.

You know him.

- I think Henry needs to go pee pee.

- Look, we're just a little bit financed

out right now, Alex.

You know, with the way the economy is.

- Look, I'm sorry to bother you.

(somber horn music)

- Mr. Camp can see you now.

- Mrs. Randall, come in please.

Come in, sit down please.

Alright, what can I do for ya?

- My son needs a heart transplant.

He's such a good boy.

- Mrs. Randall, I'm sorry, I appreciate

your dilemma, I do

but the procedure that you're asking us

to endorse and pay for isn't part of our coverage.

Insurance companies, they can't endorse

a procedure that will be a liability to the company.

- The hospital has approved the costs,

I can bring in all the paperwork.

- I know, Mrs. Randall, I'm sorry,

my hands are tied.

I wish there was something that I could do.

- No Mr. Camp, you can do something

and you can start by listening.

- Please I don't want to have to call security.

- You hide behind your stupid striped tie

and your paperwork.

You treat people like they're nothing, like they're nothing.

- Alright, alright, okay.

- Alex!

(shouting)

- Security.

(shouting)

Please.

(crying)

(somber instrumental music)

- You know, I've been thinking about this fight

with the Darkness.

You've probably got the advantage

cause you're older and probably a lot smarter.

I think you've got the experience.

- Thanks.

I don't know about that fight, you know?

- Yeah, I know.

But I've heard it said that you believe

in something enough, you can make it happen.

- Oh you have?

- Yeah.

(somber instrumental music)

- [Sal] Hello?

- Sal?

- [Sal] Leo.

- Listen, I'm gonna retire

and I want you to grab me one last favor.

Look Sal, I can't go out like this.

I go out losing that's fine

but I'm gonna go out to the best.

Put me in the ring with the Darkness

for my final fight

and I'll walk away from this in peace.

- Well.

- Please Sal, for Teddy.

- Oh we'll probably sell more seats.

Clive was supposed to wrestle the Diamond.

This is the last time.

You swear to me, you're done after this?

- I swear.

(fanfare music)

- It's to be the last match.

Classic wrestler Leo the blue lion.

It has gotten many people thinking

how can the federation allow a fighter

of Leo (mumble) in the same ring

as a man who's so dangerous,

his last three opponents went to the hospital.

- That's.

It's apples and oranges is what it is.

- What is it a revival of Roman gladiator fighting

with the crowd chanting uncontrollably

for another bloody battle.

- No what it is is putting,

you're putting an old school wrestler

in there with a new school.

You're putting a lion.

- There's no question, there's no question

that things are looking grim for Leo

who's about to face the toughest

opponent in his 15 year career.

- I don't know how to feel about this.

- Heres to you, Leo.

You owe me another.

(fanfare music)

- So this is your last fight, huh?

- Yeah.

- Its too bad, just when you were getting popular.

(energetic drum music)

(soft upbeat pop rock music)

- I told you he was done.

You two go behind my back.

You let him cheat our relationship.

What is this gonna be what's it like

when we're married?

- Flora.

- Don't even talk.

- Why the hell do I bother to fill out the monthlies

if you aren't gonna read them?

I told Leo specifically he was not

to wrestle any of the new guys,

especially Clive Temples.

All those years of heavy drinking,

repeated head trauma.

He's got the same risk factor as an 80 year old.

You know what a subdermal hematoma is?

Even with mild trauma,

one powerful blow Leon Herman's big stupid head

and that could be it, boom.

He gets nauseated, things get blurry,

starts to black out then he goes into a coma.

You can use your imagination from there.

- What's the risk?

- High.

I explained that to Leo in detail

cause I knew you wouldn't read the damn chart.

I made him repeat it back to me.

Why do you think he's at such a high premium?

(tense pop rock music)

- Leo the blue lion?

- Alex.

Where's Tommy?

- He's coming.

- Everything alright?

- Yeah he's had a good week.

- How bout you?

- I'm alright.

Little confused I guess.

The thing is, when Tommy's father left

I swore Id never fall for another wrestler again.

- Tommy's father was a wrestler?

- Yeah it was weekend thing.

But he was, he believed in it.

He was convinced in his own greatness.

That's how I thought all wrestlers were.

- You were right.

- Well what about you?

- I was convinced of my own greatness too.

- But you are great.

You spend time with children who need you.

You mace bullies, go to be birthday parties,

beat up insurance office security guards,

what else does a great man do?

(laughs)

- Bro, totally.

I knew it, I knew you'd fight the Darkness.

My mom said you might not but I knew you would.

- Tommy?

- You're gonna beat him, mess him up.

Twist him into an arm pretzel.

- Tommy?

Call an ambulance.

- [Leo] Everett, an ambulance.

- You have to beat him, Leo.

(somber indie rock music)

- After the match.

(crying)

- And here comes the blue lion,

former WWWT champion entering the ring

for the last time

and this is after an incredible career.

His legacy stretching 112.

- 112.

- 112 championship victories in a row.

I don't think that will ever be equaled

and it was almost a death of this federation

because some can say that the fights

were getting sloppy.

The fighters were getting overweight,

you can even say some of them look staged.

(crowd chanting Darkness)

- I think we all know how this is gonna end up.

- Well I hate to say it, Smiley

but I think you might be right.

- Darkness is here.

(tense rock music)

- Hey be careful.

The league will be far less accomodation to you

if someone dies on your watch.

- I'll try not to kill him.

- Take your corners.

- I think we know what's gonna happen.

- Oh boy, here we go folks.

- Get up, Leo.

(grunting)

- Oh my goodness, that is a beating.

He's taking it.

- Yeah but he takes a heck of a punch.

- [Darkness] Stay on your feet.

Get on your feet for the Darkness.

- Are we good?

- Come on, Leo get up.

(goofy music)

That's right.

- This Darkness, he's unbelievable.

- So is Leo.

Leo is really great.

Look at him climbing up the ropes like that.

You tell me what fighter (mumbles).

He knows he's got him.

(overlapping shouting)

(grunting)

Man what a hit.

Oh you son of a.

- Break it up, that's it.

(overlapping shouting)

- Oh go Lion go.

Oh here we go, Leo.

- That's a champion.

That's why he's got 112 victories.

Get up, Leo.

Leo, Leo, Leo.

- Stay down, you don't need

to do anymore of this, that's enough.

Leo the lion has proven that he has a heart.

- You piece of.

- You want to see it?

Time to say goodnight, Leo.

- In the face, look at the chair.

Oh man.

I never saw a fighter take a hit like that.

- Leo, can you hear me?

(machine beeping)

- Folks, we think Leo's

probably not right sitting here.

(shouting)

Look, he's telling him to come on.

He's saying come on, Darkness.

Look the Darkness can't even believe it.

What's he doing now?

He's taking off his shirt.

- He's taking his straps off, baby.

- Fancy pants?

- Fancy, fancy.

- Listen to the crowd, they're going nuts.

(chanting Fancy Pants)

(overlapping shouting)

- Come on Fancypants, you can do it buddy.

(cheering)

- That's right!

(machines beeping)

(coughing)

- That, ladies and gentlemen, was a fight.

- Thank god, Leo.

What are you trying to do, kill yourself?

- [Leo] I'm still alive?

(shouts)

- Thank goodness.

- What the hell was that?

I told you never to talk to Sal without talking to me, never

what you don't think I got it in me

to keep my word?

(somber piano music)

- [Leo Voiceover] I did it.

- Leo?

(soft guitar music)

- Did he win?

What's that?

- Okay are we ready?

Okay you're gonna count down from 10 okay?

10, nine eight seven six.

He's out.

Okay scalpel.

Let's do this.

(soft somber indie rock music)

- The blue lion he won?

- He won.

(machines beeping)

(soft rock music)

- Leo was more than just a wrestler.

He was a friend.

He was an icon.

He was...

- About this tall about that wide.

- He had a real knack for pissing me off

but he was...

- Over rated really but that's not to say he wasn't...

- An honorable man, good and kind and...

- Like a son to me.

Despite that...

- I didn't really know him

but from what I hear he was...

- Totally sweet, super awesome and...

- A real hero.

- It was almost like a father.

(goofy circus music)

First things first,

if you want to have fancy pants

you have to learn how to growl.

Heres how it works.

(roaring)

Okay now you try.

(growling)

It's a rough start but you'll get there.

Everett, show us the way.

- Everybody jumping jacks, spread out.

Ready, one two three.

One, one,

you kids think you're something?

(goofy circus music)
