I was able to get in the room.

Besides, they were more focused on Knuckles anyway.

I'm here to rescue you guys!

I'm gonna get us outta here on my own.

Wanda, please don't start that again.

[Gary] We are here at the final round

of the Bowling Tournament of Champions

in beautiful Reno, Nevada, or as I like to call it,

-"Las Vegas for losers." - [♪ "Sirius" by Borna Matosic playing]

Once again, the heavy favorite's from overseas,

where they bowl on the wrong side of the lane.

I'm talking about the team led by 27-time winner

and legend of the lanes,

Pistol... Pete... Whipple!

- [crowd cheering] - [haughty chuckle]

♪

- Look at that swagger. - Wow, look at the attitude.

I mean, this guy is all confidence.

- [exhales] - This crowd is goin' nuts for Pistol Pete.

Are you ready for a show?

[crowd cheering]

- [Dylan] Jordan. Gretzky. - [Gary] Yes.

Brady. These are the names you think of

when you think of athletes that have defined their sport.

And with a win today, I would argue

that Pistol Pete's face should be chiseled up there

- on the Mount Rushmore of bowling as well. - [Pete chuckles]

Next time she needs an after-school activity,

we're doing piano lessons.

And in the challenger's corner,

we have a young upstart team

looking to have their first taste of championship glory.

It's fronted by a small-town Montana sheriff's deputy,

who also happens to be...

- Pistol Pete's long-lost son! - [laughs] What?

- Allegedly. - Now, here's a good father-son story.

Rumor has it that Pistol Pete

abandoned his son at a local TJ Maxx,

choosing a bowling career over his parenting duties.

I wanna say, regardless of how you feel

- about childhood abandonment, and I'm against it... - Hm. Me, too.

...the deals at TJ Maxx cannot be beat.

[laughs] No, I wish my dad left me at a TJ Maxx.

But, you know what? Let's settle this score once and for all

and bring out our challenger,

Mr. Wade Whipple...

- Yes! - [holds "Whipple"]

- Yes, Wade! Here he comes, everybody! - Go, Wade!

Get ready! [laughs]

- Oh, man. - [Gary] Wade Whipple?

[Dylan] I-I don't have him. I don't have eyes on him.

Okay, well, I-- What do you mean stretch it out?

- I can't stretch it out... - We're supposed to fill time. You know what?

[whispers] L-L-Let's do some of the fun facts.

Oh. Oh, what a pity.

It appears my opponent...

Surprised to see me?

Can't say that I am.

You never were the sharpest thorn in the briar patch.

I don't have any idea what that means,

but I'm sure it's insulting.

If I wanted to insult you, dear boy,

I'd tell you you are in over your head,

out of your league,

and 10 pins away

from the most humiliating defeat of your life.

- Oh, snap! I heard that! - Ooh! That's gotta hurt!

- [laughs] - I heard that one! In front of everybody!

And if I was to insult you,

I'd say your game's gotten weak,

your costume smells funky,

and, quite frankly, your accent sounds fake.

- Sick burn, baby! - Really? Even the last one?

- [Dylan] Oh! Should we be allowed to hear this? - [Gary laughs]

- I think not. - Should we be-- I mean, this is private!

I'm going to give you one last chance, Wade,

to do what I did all those years ago

and just... walk... away.

Because there's no way you can win, dear boy.

You see all these lovely people?

Every single one of them is here

because they love me.

Not to mention an emotional victory

a fatherless, stunted,

utter shell of a human being.

does Wade have the strength to finish this fight?

Well, do you, dear boy?

Are you strong enough

that championship trophy?

Oh, I know I'm strong enough, Dad.

Really?

Because all my life,

I've learned from great warriors.

- Hm. - I learned from a mother

who never stopped fighting for her family.

I learned from her sister, who's honestly a little bit annoying,

but amazingly fearless and headstrong.

[♪ music building]

But most of all, I learned from the greatest warrior

in the entire galaxy,

who taught me that real warriors wouldn't exist

if not for those who came before them,

showed them the way, and never stopped fighting,

no matter how hard the battle became.

That's why I never would've found my greatest strength,

my true power,
