Short filmTranscript
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,
00:42you'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.
01:00I want to be close.
01:01Time to be close.
01:02I want to be close.
01:12I'm not, I'm not, I'm not.
01:17I'm not.
01:25But don't be close.
01:27I'm not late.
01:29You're not what I'm just doing.
01:29You're not doing well.
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.
02:22We 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.
02:41They need me home.
02:43I wanna be there for them.
02:45And 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!
03:00I...
03:12Remember, don't bet your life on luck.
03:16Break.
03:23Today, we stand here to honor a hero.
03:28Finally get to meet your idol, huh?
03:30You nervous?

33:01working for meridian?
33:03the plot thickens
33:04that's soul
33:06three-time back-to-back state mma champion
33:08brett lost to him once
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
33:21still 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
33:36oh yeah?
33:38and if we did
33:39you should have taken miss harlow's offer

33:45miss harlow's got a story for you today
33:46i came here to keep your father's legacy alive
33:49make this place actually matter
33:50but looking at it now
33:51it's already dying
33:52mr albright
33:53is it true valor refusing the challenge
33:56because your instructors can't handle it?
33:58frank albright died in the line of duty
33:59and 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
34:07was your father's sacrifice staged for publicity?
34:09can you answer that?
34:09that's impressive as harlow
34:11bringing in three phantom squad reservatives
34:13buying off the press
34:14and smearing my father's legacy
34:15all for a piece of valor?
34:16you really did go all out

56:46Ref!
56:46Counts when the towel hits the ground.
56:58That's one for us, Mr. Albright.
57:01Boss, I'm sorry, I...
57:02Get yourself checked out first.
57:04I'll give you one more chance.
57:05Sign the acquisition papers now
57:07and Valor walks away with its dignity intact.
57:10Winning or losing, it doesn't change a thing.
57:12Valor's position is fixed.
57:14Position? You'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 willing to step up.
57:24Fine. I'll go.
57:25Ray, stop. You want to go up there and get killed?
57:28Mr. Albright, we need to call it. We don't have a chance here.
57:30Hey, reporters, take a look. Am I wrong?
57:32Valor's nothing but indetripe to step the cage.
57:34I'll go up! Put 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, running on a dead man's name.
57:48You 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?
57:55Valor's out of people.
57:55Valor's out of people.
57:56Valor's out of people.
57:56Valor's out of people.
57:57Valor's out of people.
57:58Valor's out of people.
57:58Valor's out of people.
57:58Valor's out of people.
