00:01Don't bet your life on luck.
00:02With you watching my back, I don't even need luck.
00:04Elise!
00:08I've got them. Rest easy.
00:11Are you ready to sign the damn papers?
00:13Valor is not for sale.
00:14My father built this place with what was left.
00:17Don't!
00:19Miss Harlow brought people.
00:21We want a public match.
00:23Your instructors against ours.
00:25Valor's done. Shut it down!
00:27Who said Valor's out of people?
00:30How is that possible? Who is this woman?
00:32The way she moves, doesn't she remind you of Shadow?
00:34That was just one round. The game is far from over.
00:38Next up, shooting competition.
00:39I'm not trying to be cruel, but all of you combined, you're still not beating me.
00:43And if Valor wins, what's on the table?
00:46I walk away from this place and never come back.
00:48Elise, please.
00:49I don't bet my life on luck.
00:53That's impossible.
00:55Who the hell are you? Valor's janitor.
01:00It's not hurting all of you.
01:01You're not gonna lose.
01:03It's not hurting you, isn't it?
01:04Nothing is hurting you, right?
01:04No, not hurting you.
01:04But you're not hurt by any of you.
01:04You're not hurting me.
01:04The game is hurting me, right?
01:13I'm sorry.
01:24I'm scared.
01:25I'm scared.
01:26But there are seven hostiles around you. Intel was wrong. Fall back.
01:31If I leave now, the rest won't survive either.
01:35The floor has almost no cover. Seven of them can surround you in under a minute.
01:38Enough from me.
01:44Please! Please don't kill me!
01:45Drop your weapon or she dies!
01:47You like guns? Then keep your eyes on it.
01:57Area secured. Come up to rescue the hospital.
02:01Damn good work, Elise. You just turned a dead end into a total win, all by yourself.
02:06That's why you're Shadow. Best field operator in Phantom Squad.
02:09But next time, don't go cowboy on me.
02:12Here we go again.
02:14Don't bet your life on luck.
02:15You say that every single time.
02:17Relax. With you watching my back, I don't even need luck.
02:21Keep that focus. We wrap this up, and that Phantom Squad citation is yours.
02:25You've earned it.
02:26Though, I think I'm done after this.
02:29Where's this coming from?
02:33The accident last year took my wife.
02:37Derek's never gonna walk the way he used to.
02:40Cora's still so young. They need me home.
02:43I wanna be there for them, and someone's gotta run the center.
02:48They're lucky to have you.
02:49Come by the center when you're on leave.
02:51The kids have been asking about the legendary Shadow for months.
02:55Yeah, alright.
02:56Elise!
03:12Remember, don't bet your life on luck.
03:15Frank!
03:23Today, we stand here to honor a hero.
03:28Finally get to meet your idol, huh?
03:30You nervous?
03:33Phantom Squad's best solo operator.
03:35She's everybody's hero, not just mine.
03:39And I'm not leaving without that signature.
03:43For her actions in overseas counter-terror operations,
03:46and her decisive role in neutralizing the June 25th hostage crisis,
03:50Shadow is hereby awarded the Phantom Squad's highest commandation.
03:55Shadow, please forward and receive your citation.
04:15One year ago today, Phantom Squad's legendary operator Shadow declined all honors and vanished.
04:20Sources close to the unit believe her disappearance is connected to the death of her partner.
04:24I owe you, Frank.
04:30I've got them.
04:33Rest easy.
04:44Floor's a mess.
04:47You blind?
04:51That's the janitor.
04:52I've seen her staring at Mr. Alston more than once.
04:59You hiding a photo of Mr. Albright?
05:01You're the janitor.
05:02What exactly do you think you're doing mooning over him?
05:15You think you can just dodge me?
05:17Coach Foster, you have a training session.
05:19Stay out of it!
05:21What's going on here?
05:35Mr. Albright, we didn't expect you back until Friday.
05:38Schedule changed.
05:39We're early.
05:40Shouldn't you all be in training right now?
05:42On our way now.
05:47I've got this.
05:49Back to work.
06:00Which one of you is Derek?
06:02Tell him to get out here.
06:10I'm here on behalf of Meridian Group on the acquisition.
06:13Get Derek out here.
06:18Meridian Group?
06:19We're doing fine.
06:20Why would they want to acquire us?
06:22Meridian Group doesn't acquire.
06:23They colonize.
06:24If they move on you, you're done.
06:26I'm Derek.
06:27Whatever this is, take it to my office.
06:29Korra, go play for a bit.
06:32That's Meridian Group's deal.
06:34They're bad people.
06:34They're bad news.
06:35There was another training center, Thunderstroke, that turned them down.
06:38The owner died in a car accident a week later, and nobody looked into it.
06:41It hit the news for about a day, then just disappeared.
06:45Comments were shut down.
06:46Mr. Albright's in real trouble here.
06:48Elise, stop!
06:49These aren't people you can mess with.
06:52Elise!
06:56Derek, Ms. Harlod sent me for an answer.
06:58Are you ready to sign the damn papers?
07:00I've been clear from the start.
07:01Valor stays with me.
07:15The office doesn't need cleaning today.
07:17Get out.
07:18I'm just doing my job, sir.
07:22Even your janitor has an attitude problem.
07:25Let me show you how Ms. Harley handles insubordinations.
07:29Consider it a courtesy.
07:31Back off, my answer is still no.
07:34Valor is not for sale.
07:39Sign it now, or don't.
07:41But when Ms. Harlow handles this herself,
07:44you won't be able to protect anyone.
07:46My father bled for this country.
07:48He built this place with what was left.
07:51I'm not letting you turn Valor into a front for your dirty laundry.
07:54Get out of my office. Now!
07:57Gave everything for his country.
08:03That just means he was stupid enough to let it happen.
08:07Don't!

18:23Get yourself checked out first.
18:24I'll give you one more chance.
18:26Sign the acquisition papers now,
18:28and Valor walks away with its dignity intact.
18:30Winning or losing, it doesn't change a thing.
18:33Valor's position is fixed.
18:35Position? You're in a position to talk about that right now?
18:37This place could burn to the ground,
18:38and I still wouldn't hand it to you.
18:41Then we keep going until there's nobody left at Valor willing to step up.
18:44Fine. I'll go.
18:46Ray, stop. You want to go up there and get killed?
18:48Mr. Albright, we need to call it. We don't have a chance here.
18:51Hey, reporters, take a look. Am I wrong?
18:52Valor's nothing but indetrient about to set the cage.
18:55I'll go up. Put me in.
18:57I'll do it.
19:01You all watched your MMA coach get carried out of that cage,
19:03and you still want in just to go down fast?
19:05A man in a wheelchair, a gym full of nobodies, running on a dead man's name.
19:08You really call this a training center? That's the funniest thing I've ever seen.
19:11You getting this? Valor's done.
19:13Shut it down.
19:14Who said Valor's out of people?
19:20Don't bet your life on luck.
19:22With you watching my back, I don't even need luck.
19:24Elise!
19:28I've got them.
19:29Rest easy.
19:31Are you ready to sign the damn papers?
19:32Valor is not for sale.
19:34My father built this place with what was left.
19:36Don't!
19:39Miss Harlow brought people.
19:41We want a public match.
19:42Your instructors against ours.
19:45Valor's done. Shut it down.
19:47Who said Valor's out of people?
19:50How is that possible?
19:51Who is this woman?
19:52The way she moves, doesn't she remind you of Shadow?
19:54That was just one round.
19:55The game is far from over.
19:57Next up, shooting competition.
19:59I'm not trying to be cruel, but all of you combined, you're still not beating me.
20:03And if Valor wins, what's on the table?
20:05I walk away from this place and never come back.
20:08Elise, please.
20:09I don't bet my life on luck.
20:13That's impossible.
20:14Who the hell are you?
20:16Valor's janitor.
20:43Hostages at your two o'clock.
20:45Five total, but there are seven hostiles around you.
20:47Intel was wrong.
20:48Fall back.
20:51If I leave now, the rest won't survive either.
20:54The floor has almost no cover.
20:56Seven of them can surround you in under a minute.
20:57Enough for me.
21:03Please, please don't kill me.
21:05Drop your weapon or she dies.
21:07You like guns?
21:07Then keep your eyes on it.
21:16Area secured.
21:18Come up to rescue the hospital.
21:20Damn good work, Elise.
21:22You just turned a dead end into a total win all by yourself.
21:25That's why you're Shadow.
21:27Best field operator in Phantom Squad.
21:29But next time, don't go cowboy on me.
21:32Here we go again.
21:33Don't bet your life on luck.
21:35You say that every single time.
21:37Relax.
21:38With you watching my back, I don't even need luck.

21:41We wrap this up and that Phantom Squad citation is yours.
21:45You've earned it.

21:49Where's this coming from?
21:53The accident last year took my wife.
21:56Derek's never going to walk the way he used to.
21:59Cora's still so young.
22:01They need me home.
22:03I want to be there for them.
22:04And someone's got to run the center.
22:07They're lucky to have you.
22:09Come by the center when you're on leave.
22:11The kids have been asking about the legendary Shadow for months.
22:15Yeah, all right.
22:16Elise!
22:30Remember, don't bet your life on luck.
22:35Frank!
22:42Today, we stand here to honor a hero.
22:48You finally get to meet your idol, huh?

26:11Elise!
26:15Derek.
26:16Miss Harlott sent me for an answer.
26:18Are you ready to sign the damn papers?
26:20I've been clear from the start.
26:21Valor stays with me.
26:35The office doesn't need cleaning today.
26:37Get out.
26:38I'm just doing my job, sir.
26:41Even your janitor has an attitude problem.

27:14Get out of my office.
27:15Now.
27:16Now.
27:16Gave everything for his country.
27:22That just means he was stupid enough to let it happen.
27:27Don't!
27:51That move she just made.
27:58That's tactical movement.
28:00Touch.
28:02What isn't yours.
28:09You crazy beach!
28:11Keep your mouth shut before I make you!
28:15This is Valor's house.
28:17Are you leaving on your own or do I have to make you?
28:25Fine.
28:26When Ms. Harlow gets here, don't come crying to me when this place shuts down!
28:35That was thank you.
28:36But don't do that again.
28:38It's not worth the risk.
28:40Derek.
28:41You okay?
28:43I'm fine.
28:44She helped.
28:46Her?
28:46We have three instructors at this center.
28:48When did a Jananiter become the one handling things?
28:52Look at her.
28:53You really think someone like that could handle herself?
28:55Brett would put her down in one hit.
28:57Don't underestimate women.
28:59Shadow's a woman.
29:00Ten of me wouldn't be enough.
29:02Shadow's in a completely different league.
29:04You're gonna compare a Janitor to her?
29:08Hey, Janitor.
29:09You even know who Shadow is?
29:11Ring any bells?
29:12Enough.
29:13We've got a situation.
29:14Meridian isn't going to let this go.
29:16They'll come back with something worse.
29:19My guess?
29:20She sends people to make trouble.
29:21Let them come.
29:22They show up, we put them down.
29:24Don't make it simple.
29:26Meridian Group is like a snake.
29:28They don't come straighty at you.
29:29Where's Korra?
29:30Did any of you see her on your way in?
29:32No.
29:33No.
29:34Go find her.
29:34Now!
29:37Mr. Albright?
29:38This is Gina Harlow from Meridian Group.
29:42Since your staff was so physical with my associate,
29:45I thought I'd invite your sister over for a visit instead.
29:56What did you do to Korra?
29:58Breathe, Derek.
29:59She's having the time of her life.
30:01Don't take my word for it.
30:02Check your messages.
30:08What's the rush?
30:09Let us finish our cake.
30:12I'm coming to get her right now.
30:14I'll drop her off myself.
30:15And Derek, I'm bringing a little something extra for you to sign.
30:21That beach is playing with us.
30:27Where's the janitor?
30:28Where'd she go?
30:33That was my fault.
30:36I should have been watching.
30:39But I promise I will bring her back.
30:44They're here!
30:45The Meridian Group!
30:46A whole convoy!
31:02Derrick!
31:03Ms. Harlow decided you were worth a personal visit.
31:06Try to look grateful.
31:23Where's Korra?
31:27Are you okay?
31:29Did anyone hurt you?
31:30That lady really wanted me to eat her cake.
31:33I didn't want her cake.
31:35You're okay.
31:36Go rest.
31:37I'll come see you tonight.
31:38Stay with her.
31:40Don't be so dramatic, Mr. Albright.
31:42She's home, she's fed, and she's in one piece.
31:45Consider it a show of good faith.
31:46We all know what you want, Gina.
31:47You want to take this place, and we said no.
31:49So you put a kid in the middle of it?
31:51You're sick.
31:51We tried the velvet glove this morning.
31:53You spit on it.
31:53Now you get the fist.
31:54You should be begging us for a buyout before we pave over this dump.
31:57Brett!
32:01You're all so sensitive.
32:04I haven't even shown you the gift yet.
32:07What do you actually want?
32:09Word is Valor runs the best MMA, marksman, and tactical programs in the area.
32:15Ms. Harlow brought people.
32:18We want a public match.
32:20Your instructors against ours.
32:22One-on-one across all three disciplines.
32:24That's it?
32:25Just a friendly competition?
32:26Yes, it's just a competition.
32:28But when Valor's finest get dismantled in their own backyard, on camera, tell me, who's
32:34going to trust you with their training ever again?
32:36I know exactly what your instructors are worth, Gina.
32:38You think we're scared of Meridian?
32:40Only one way to find out.
32:48Are you kidding me?
32:50Since when are they Meridian coaches?
32:52You people go digging in the gutter for this?
32:55Weren't they all brought into the Phantom Squad Reserves last year?
32:59Phantom Squad Reservals?
33:01Working for Meridian?
33:03The plot thickens.
33:05That's Sol.
33:06Three-time back-to-back state MMA champion.
33:09Brett lost to him one.
33:10And Ron's tactics are dirty as they come.
33:12Got in your head before, didn't he?
33:14And you know him ever again.
33:15That woman is Luna.
33:16She and I tied at the regional marksman competition.
33:20So, Mr. Albright, still want to do this?
33:31You didn't come here to compete.
33:32You came here to start something.
33:34Take your people and get off Valor's property.
33:37Oh, yeah?
33:38And if we did, you should have taken Ms. Harlow's offer when you had the chance.
33:42Too late to back out now.
33:44Come on in, everyone.
33:45Ms. Harlow's got a story for you today.
33:47I came here to keep your father's legacy alive, make this place actually matter.
33:50But looking at it now, it's already dying.
33:53Mr. Albright, is it true Valor refusing the challenge because your instructors can't handle it?
33:58Frank Albright died in the line of duty and you turn it into a marketing opportunity?
34:03That's a lie!
34:04Those three aren't even...
34:04Why won't Valor accept the challenge?
34:06Mr. Albright, was your father's sacrifice staged for publicity?
34:09Can you answer that?
34:09That's impressive, is Harlow.
34:11Bringing in three Phantom Squad reservatives, buying off the press, and smearing my father's legacy all for a piece of
34:15Valor?
34:16You really did go all out.
34:17Save the speech.
34:18You're a loser, Derek.
34:19Confess to the cameras now or wait until we embarrass you so badly, you'll never show your face again.
34:23Choose your poison.
34:24They're gonna kill each other.
34:27Mr. Albright, say the word.
34:29I've been here since day one.
34:30I go up there and I finish it.
34:32They don't get to talk about this place like that.
34:34They're stronger than us, across the board.
34:36That's exactly what they're counting on.
34:37Don't play their game.
34:39Then we walk into it.
34:40Mr. Frank was everything to me.
34:41I'm not standing here while they drag his name through the dirt.
34:43I'm in.
34:45Count me in, too.
34:46They don't get to do this.
34:47I'm in.
34:48Count me in.
34:49Yeah.
34:50Let's do this.
34:51You watching this, Frank?
34:52Your people are something else.
34:55Tactically, we're outmatched, but I'm with Valor.
34:58Let's fight.
34:59You heard them, Mr. Albright.
35:01Nobody's forcing your hand here.
35:02Valor accepts.
35:16Wonderful.
35:17Courage suits you, Mr. Albright.
35:19Let's start with MAA.
35:28Sol is a power fighter.
35:30His weakness is speed.
35:31Your only shot is to go first and go hard.
35:33Don't give him a chance to reset.
35:35Got it.
35:37What are you doing here?
35:39You're just the janitor.
35:40Go find somewhere else to be.
35:48Brett, you lost to me once and you came back for more?
35:53Don't get too comfortable, Sol.
35:54Three years is a long time.
35:56I'm not that guy anymore.
35:58Take him apart, Coach Vega.
35:59Show them what the strongest gym in the state looks like.
36:03Come on, Brett.
36:07Brett's actually pushing him back.
36:09I didn't think he could hang with Sol like this.
36:12Maybe we've got this.
36:14Something's wrong.
36:15You think those idiots actually believe Brett's winning?
36:18Sol always does this.
36:19Makes you think you're in it, then drops you.
36:22Sol, stop wasting time on this.
36:27Stop running.
36:28Come on, that's all you got.
36:29Now show's over.
36:57Come on!
36:59Come on!
37:00Get up!
37:02Come on!
37:23What the hell?
37:25We threw in the towel!
37:27Ref!
37:27Counts when the towel hits the ground.
37:38That's one for us, Mr. Albright.
37:41Boss, I'm sorry.
37:42I-I...
37:43Get yourself checked out first.
37:44I'll give you one more chance.
37:46Sign the acquisition papers now and Valor walks away with its dignity intact.
37:50Winning or losing, it doesn't change a thing.
37:53Valor's position is fixed.
37:54Position?
37:55You're in a position to talk about that right now?
37:56This place could burn to the ground and I still wouldn't hand it to you.
38:00Then we keep going until there's nobody left at Valor willing to step up.
38:04Fine.
38:05I'll go.
38:05Ray, stop.
38:06You want to go up there and get killed?
38:08Mr. Albright, we need to call it.
38:09We don't have a chance here.
38:10Hey, reporters, take a look.
38:11Am I wrong?
38:12Valor's nothing but in touch.
38:13You're about to step the cage.
38:14I'll go up.
38:15Put me in.
38:16I'll do it.
38:20You all watched your MMA coach get carried out of that cage and you still want in just
38:24to go down faster?
38:25A man in a wheelchair, a gym full of nobodies, running on a dead man's name.
38:28You really call this a training center?
38:29That's the funniest thing I've ever seen.
38:30You getting this?
38:31Valor's done.
38:32Shut it down.
38:34Who said Valor's out of people?
38:40Don't bet your life on luck.
38:41With you watching my back, I don't even need luck.
38:43Elise!
38:47I've got them.
38:49Rest easy.
38:50Are you ready to sign the damn papers?
38:52Valor is not for sale.
38:53My father built this place with what was left.
38:56Don't!
38:58Miss Harlow brought people.
39:00We want a public match.
39:02Your instructors against ours.
39:05Valor's done.
39:05Shut it down.
39:06Who said Valor's out of people?
39:09How is that possible?
39:10Who is this woman?
39:11The way she moves, doesn't she remind you of Shadow?
39:13That was just one round.
39:15The game is far from over.
39:17Next up, shooting competition.
39:18I'm not trying to be cruel, but all of you combined, you're still not beating me.
39:22And if Valor wins, what's on the table?
39:25I walk away from this place and never come back.
39:27Elise, please.
39:28I don't bet my life on luck.
39:32That's impossible.
39:34Who the hell are you?
39:35Valor's janitor.
40:03Hostages at your two o'clock.
40:04Five total, but there are seven hostiles around you.
40:07Intel was wrong.
40:07Fall back.
40:10If I leave now, the rest won't survive either.
40:14The floor has almost no cover.
40:15Seven of them can surround you in under a minute.
40:17Enough for me.
40:23Please, please don't kill me!
40:25Drop your weapon or she dies!
40:26You like guns?
40:27Then keep your eyes on it.
40:36Area secured.
40:37Come up to rescue the hospital.
40:40Damn good work, Elise.
40:41You just turned a dead end into a total win.
40:44All by yourself.
40:45That's why you're Shadow.
40:46Best field operator in Phantom Squad.
40:48But next time, don't go cowboy on me.
40:51Here we go again.
40:53Don't bet your life on luck.
40:54You say that every single time.
40:56Relax.
40:57With you watching my back, I don't even need luck.
41:00Keep that focus.
41:01We wrap this up and that Phantom Squad citation is yours.
41:04You've earned it.
41:06Though, I think I'm done after this.
41:08Where's this coming from?
41:12The accident last year took my wife.
41:16Derek's never going to walk the way he used to.
41:19Cora's still so young.
41:20They need me home.
41:22I want to be there for them.
41:24And someone's got to run the center.
41:27They're lucky to have you.
41:28Come by the center when you're on leave.
41:30The kids have been asking about the legendary Shadow for months.
41:34Yeah, all right.
41:36Elise!
41:51Remember, don't bet your life on luck.
41:55Frank!
42:02Today, we stand here to honor a hero.
42:07Finally get to meet your idol, huh?
42:09You nervous?
42:12Phantom Squad's best solo operator.
42:14She's everybody's hero, not just mine.
42:18And I'm not leaving without that signature.
42:22For her actions in overseas counter-terreup operations
42:25and her decisive role in neutralizing the June 25th hostage crisis,
42:29Shadow is hereby awarded the Phantom Squad's highest commendation.
42:35Shadow, please forward and receive your citation.
42:54One year ago today, Phantom Squad's legendary operator Shadow declined all honors and vanished.
42:59Sources close to the unit believe her disappearance is connected to the death of her partner.
43:05I owe you, Frank.
43:09I've got them.
43:12Rest easy.
43:24Floor's a mess.
43:26You blind?
43:30That's the janitor.
43:31I've seen her staring at Mr. Alston more than once.
43:38You hiding a photo of Mr. Albright?
43:40You're the janitor.
43:41What exactly do you think you're doing mooning over him?
43:54You think you can just dodge me?
43:56Coach Foster, you have a training session.
43:58Stay out of it!
44:00What's going on here?
44:14Mr. Albright, we didn't expect you back until Friday.
44:17Schedule changed.
44:18We're early.
44:19Shouldn't you all be in training right now?
44:21On our way now.
44:26I've got this.
44:28Back to work.
44:39Which one of you is Derek?
44:41Tell him to get out here.
44:49I'm here on behalf of Meridian Group on the acquisition.
44:52Get Derek out here.
44:58Meridian Group?
44:58We're doing fine.
44:59Why would they want to acquire us?
45:01Meridian Group doesn't acquire.
45:02They colonize.
45:03If they move on you, you're done.
45:05I'm Derek.
45:06Whatever this is, take it to my office.
45:08Korra, go play for a bit.
45:11What's Meridian Group's deal?
45:13They're bad news.
45:14There was another training center, Thunderstroke, that turned them down.
45:17The owner died in a car accident a week later, and nobody looked into it.
45:20It hit the news for about a day, then just disappeared.
45:24Comments were shut down.
45:25Mr. Albright's in real trouble here.
45:27Elise, stop.
45:28These aren't people you can mess with.
45:31Elise!
45:35Derek.
45:36Ms. Harlow had sent me for an answer.
45:37Are you ready to sign the damn papers?
45:39I've been clear from the start.
45:41Valor stays with me.
45:54The office doesn't need cleaning today.
45:57Get out.
45:57I'm just doing my job, sir.
46:01Even your janitor has an attitude problem.
46:04Let me show you how Ms. Harlow handles insubordinations.
46:08Consider it a courtesy.
46:10Back off.
46:11My answer is still no.
46:13Valor is not for sale.
46:18Sign it now, or don't.
46:20But when Ms. Harlow handles this herself, you won't be able to protect anyone.
46:25My father bled for this country.
46:27He built this place with what was left.
46:30I'm not letting you turn Valor into a front for your dirty laundry.
46:33Get out of my office.
46:34Now.
46:36Gave everything for his country.
46:42That just means he was stupid enough to let it happen.
46:47Don't!
47:10That move she just made.
47:18That's tactical movement.
47:20Touch.
47:22What isn't yours.
47:28You crazy beach!
47:30Keep your mouth shut before I make you!
47:34This is Valor's house.
47:37Are you leaving on your own, or do I have to make you?
47:45Fine.
47:46When Ms. Harlow gets here, don't come crying to me when this place shuts down!
47:55That was thank you.
47:56But don't do that again.
47:57It's not worth the risk.
48:00Derek.
48:01You okay?
48:03I'm fine.
48:04She helped.
48:05Her?
48:06We have three instructors at this center.
48:08When did a Janiniter become the one handling things?
48:11Look at her.
48:12You really think someone like that could handle herself?
48:15Brett would put her down in one hit.
48:17Don't underestimate women.
48:19Shadow's a woman.
48:20Ten of me wouldn't be enough.
48:22Shadow's in a completely different league.
48:24You're gonna compare a Janitor to her?
48:28Hey, Janitor.
48:29You even know who Shadow is?
48:30Ring any bells?
48:31Enough!
48:32We've got a situation.
48:34Meridian isn't going to let this go.
48:35They'll come back with something worse.
48:38My guess?
48:39She sends people to make trouble.
48:41Let them come.
48:42They show up, we put them down.
48:44Don't make it simple.
48:45Meridian Group is like a snake.
48:47They don't come straighty at you.
48:49Where's Cora?
48:50Did any of you see her on your way in?
48:51No.
48:53No.
48:53Go find her.
48:54Now!
48:57Mr. Albright?
48:58This is Gina Harlow from Meridian Group.
49:00Since your staff was so physical with my associate, I thought I'd invite your sister over for a visit instead.
49:16What did you do to Cora?
49:18Breathe, Derek.
49:19She's having the time of her life.
49:21Don't take my word for it.
49:22Check your messages.
49:28What's the rush?
49:29Let us finish our cake.
49:31I'm coming to get her right now.
49:33I'll drop her off myself.
49:35And Derek, I'm bringing a little something extra for you to sign.
49:41That beach is playing with us.

49:48Where'd she go?
49:52That was my fault.

50:04The Meridian Group!
50:05A whole convoy!
50:22Derrick!
50:23Ms. Harlow decided you were worth a personal visit.
50:26Try to look great for you.
50:43Where's Cora?
50:47Are you okay?
50:48Did anyone hurt you?
50:50That lady really wanted me to eat her cake.
50:53I didn't want her cake.
50:55You're okay.
50:56Go rest.
50:56I'll come see you tonight.
50:58Stay with her.
51:00Don't be so dramatic, Mr. Albright.
51:02She's home, she's fed, and she's in one piece.
51:04Consider it a show of good faith.
51:06We all know what you want, Gina.
51:07You want to take this place, and we said no.
51:09So you put a kid in the middle of it?
51:10You're sick.
51:11We tried the velvet glove this morning.
51:12You spit on it.
51:13Now you get the fist.
51:14You should be begging us for a buyout before we pave over this dump.
51:17Brett!
51:21You're all so sensitive.
51:24I haven't even shown you the gift yet.
51:27What do you actually want?
51:29Word is Valor runs the best MMA, marksman, and tactical programs in the area.
51:35Ms. Harlow brought people.
51:37We want a public match.
51:39Your instructors against ours.
51:42One-on-one across all three disciplines.
51:44That's it?

51:58You think we're scared of Meridian?
52:00Only one way to find out.
52:07Are you kidding me?
52:09Since when are they Meridian coaches?
52:12You people go digging in the gutter for this?
52:15Weren't they all brought into the Phantom Squad Reserves last year?
52:19Phantom Squad Reservals?
52:21Working for Meridian?
52:22The plot thickens.
52:24That's Sol.
52:25Three-time back-to-back state MMA champion.
52:28Brett lost to him one.
52:29And Ron's tactics are dirty as they come.
52:32Got in your head before, didn't he?
52:33And you know him ever again.
52:34That woman is Luna.
52:36She and I tied at the regional marksman competition.
52:39So, Mr. Albright, still want to do this?
52:50You didn't come here to compete.
52:52You came here to start something.
52:54Take your people and get off Valor's property.
52:56Oh, yeah?
52:57And if we did, you should have taken Ms. Harlow's offer when you had the chance.
53:02Too late to back out now.
53:03Come on in, everyone.
53:04Ms. Harlow's got a story for you today.
53:06I came here to keep your father's legacy alive, make this place actually matter.
53:10But looking at it now, it's already dying.
53:12Mr. Albright, is it true Valor refusing the challenge because your instructors can't handle it?
53:17Frank Albright died in the line of duty and you turn it into a marketing opportunity?
53:22That's a lie!
53:23Those three aren't even...
53:24Why won't Valor accept the challenge?
53:26Mr. Albright, was your father's sacrifice staged for publicity?
53:28Can you answer that?
53:29That's impressive, Harlow.
53:30Bringing in three Phantom Squad reservatives, buying off the press and smearing my father's legacy all for a piece of
53:35Valor?
53:35You really did go all out.
53:37Save the speech.
53:38You're a loser, Derek.
53:38Confess to the cameras now or wait until we embarrass you so badly, you'll never show your face again.
53:43Choose your poison.
53:44They're gonna kill each other.
53:46Mr. Albright, say the word.
53:48I've been here since day one.
53:50I go up there and I finish it.
53:51They don't get to talk about this place like that.
53:53They're stronger than us, across the board.
53:55That's exactly what they're counting on.
53:57Don't play their game.
53:58Then we walk into it.
54:00Mr. Frank was everything to me.
54:01I'm not standing here while they drag his name through the dirt.
54:03I'm in!
54:04Count me in, too!
54:06They don't get to do this!
54:07I'm in!
54:08Count me in!
54:09Yeah!
54:09Let's do this!
54:10You watching this, Frank?
54:12Your people are something else.
54:14Tactically, we're outmatched, but I'm with Valor.
54:18Let's fight.
54:19You heard them, Mr. Albright.
54:20Nobody's forcing your hand here.
54:22Valor accepts.
54:35Wonderful!
54:37Courage suits you, Mr. Albright.
54:39Let's start with MAA.
54:47Sol is a power fighter.
54:49His weakness is speed.
54:51Your only shot is to go first and go hard.
54:53Don't give him a chance to reset.
54:54Got it.
54:57What are you doing here?
54:58You're just the janitor.
55:00Go find somewhere else to be.
55:02Go find somewhere else to be.
55:08Brett, you lost to me once and you came back for more?
55:13Don't get too comfortable, Sol.
55:14Three years is a long time.
55:16I'm not that guy anymore.
55:17Take him apart, Coach Vega.
55:19Show them what the strongest gym in the state looks like.
55:22Come on, Brett.
55:27Brett's actually pushing him back.
55:29I didn't think he could hang with Sol like this.
55:31Maybe we've got this.
55:33Something's wrong.
55:35You think those idiots actually believe Brett's winning?
55:37Sol always does this.
55:39Makes you think you're in it, and then drops you.
55:41Sol, stop wasting time on this.
55:47Stop running.
55:48Come on, that's all you got?
55:49Now show's over.
56:17Come on!
56:19Come on!
56:20Get up!
56:42What the hell?
56:44We threw in the towel!
56:46Ref!
56:46Counts when the towel hits the ground.
56:58That's one for us, Mr. Albright.
57:01Boss, I'm sorry.
57:02I-I...
57:02Get yourself checked out first.
57:03I'll give you one more chance.
57:05Sign the acquisition papers now,
57:07and Valor walks away with its dignity intact.
57:09Winning or losing, it doesn't change a thing.
57:12Valor's position is fixed.
57:14Position?
57:14You're in a position to talk about that right now?
57:16This place could burn to the ground,
57:17and I still wouldn't hand it to you.
57:20Then we keep going until there's nobody left at Valor
57:22willing to step up.
57:24Fine.
57:24I'll go!
57:25Ray, stop!
57:26You want to go up there and get killed?
57:28Mr. Albright, we need to call it.
57:29We don't have a chance here.
57:30Hey, reporters, take a look.
57:31Am I wrong?
57:32Valor's nothing but in touch.
57:33I'm about to step the cage!
57:34I'll go up!
57:35Put me in!
57:36I'll do it!
57:40You all watched your MMA coach get carried out of that cage,
57:42and you still want in just to go down fast?
57:44A man in a wheelchair, a gym full of nobodies,
57:46running on a dead man's name.
57:47You really call this a training center?
57:49That's the funniest thing I've ever seen.
57:50You getting this?
57:51Valor's done.
57:52Shut it down!
57:53Who said Valor's out of people?
