Short filmTranscript
00:00:03I'm Jax Carter.
00:00:05My MMA dad never claimed me, and neither did his family.
00:00:09To them, I'm just the bastard he had with the maid.
00:00:13I train with three masters in secret so that one day,
00:00:17I can prove myself and give my mother the life she deserves.
00:00:39You okay, princess?
00:00:49Wow, that's the first time I've been able to touch him.
00:00:58I finally got this.
00:01:05Looks like he just got hit by a bus.
00:01:10At your age, I was already running laps around the top killers in the game.
00:01:26You can't carry him?
00:01:29Jax has to wear him.
00:01:331,200 pounds.
00:01:34You wear him day and night, even when you sleep.
00:01:36Walking, breathing, existing.
00:01:38That's how you get strong.
00:01:39You take him off before we say, you no longer are our disciple.
00:01:43No more training.
00:01:44No more martial arts.
00:01:46No shot at power.
00:01:48And your mother stays a janitor forever.
00:01:54Pressure makes champions.
00:01:56It's the only rule that matters.
00:01:57Can I go?
00:01:59Fine.
00:02:00But remember, nobody can know we train you.
00:02:06Little shit actually tagged me.
00:02:08Kid ain't normal.
00:02:09If he's so strong, then why the cuffs?
00:02:11Aren't you afraid you're gonna break him?
00:02:14Praise breeds ego.
00:02:15Ego gets you choked out.
00:02:17If he wants to tap into his god weight build,
00:02:19he needs pressure, not compliments.
00:02:21Come on, god weight build.
00:02:24That's gym folklore.
00:02:25No one's ever seen it.
00:02:26The old trainers used to say there was a few of them.
00:02:28One in a million.
00:02:29Fighters with bodies that defies physics.
00:02:31They call it the god weight build
00:02:32because it wasn't designed for anything but fighting.
00:02:35He has it.
00:02:36He's just not ready to use it.
00:02:39Yet.
00:02:41I've been wearing these cuffs for a week now.
00:02:44I wonder how much stronger I've gotten.
00:02:54Uncle, father, I will prove you wrong.
00:03:03Nothing.
00:03:04I'm still so weak.
00:03:16Jacks, get out here.
00:03:17Where have you been?
00:03:19Why did you hit your cousin Troy?
00:03:21I just...
00:03:21You humiliated us.
00:03:23Again.
00:03:23You need to apologize to your uncle and your cousin.
00:03:26We're going to beg for their forgiveness.
00:03:28You don't understand.
00:03:29Troy...
00:03:29No backtalk.
00:03:31Do you want them to kick us out completely?
00:03:45Stop it!
00:03:46That's enough!
00:03:47They cleaned up the mess, maid!
00:03:51You slapped me like you're a tough guy, huh?
00:03:53Now you get repped.
00:03:56Keep playing victim.
00:03:58I barely tapped you.
00:04:00And now your head's all wrapped up like you just got back from a war zone.
00:04:03You think this is funny, Jacks?
00:04:07You spat on my mom yesterday.
00:04:09What would you have done?
00:04:10Your mom?
00:04:10She's a house-rent janitor scrubs.
00:04:12Say that again.
00:04:15Apologize to your cousin.
00:04:16And to your uncle.
00:04:17Mom.
00:04:18He started this.
00:04:19Why should I...
00:04:25Please!
00:04:29See, Frank?
00:04:30He's handled.
00:04:32Which hand did he hit you with?
00:04:34His right.
00:04:35Break it.
00:04:38Frank, no!
00:04:39Please!
00:04:40Hurt me if you have to.
00:04:42Not him!
00:04:43Do it.
00:04:46If they see the cuffs, it's over.
00:04:49No more training.
00:04:51No more second chances.
00:04:55They'll know I've been hiding everything.
00:04:58See, you little bastard.
00:05:00Nobody gives a shit.
00:05:02Wait!
00:05:06The Crucible recruitment combine is tomorrow.
00:05:09We all know the Crucible is the most elite training group in UCF history.
00:05:15They take one fighter every five years.
00:05:17And every single one has gone on to be a champion.
00:05:22I've already submitted our roster.
00:05:24Jack's included.
00:05:26If he doesn't show, we're out.
00:05:29Disqualified.
00:05:30Zach, come on.
00:05:30Are you really going to let him off the...
00:05:36If that combine wasn't tomorrow, I would cripple you.
00:05:40Right here.
00:05:42For today, you get to keep your hand.
00:05:45After the combine, it's mine.
00:05:50Get the fuck out of my face.
00:06:00Blake, thank you.
00:06:02Go on.
00:06:03Thank your brother.
00:06:13He's wearing weights.
00:06:15Must be training hard.
00:06:17Don't thank me yet.
00:06:19Show up tomorrow.
00:06:20Blow them away.
00:06:23Only way Uncle Frank backs off.
00:06:25One shot.
00:06:27Make it count.
00:06:38That's Camden Carter.
00:06:40My father.
00:06:41Hard to even call him that.
00:06:43Walks right past us like we're ghosts.
00:06:45Like we never existed.
00:06:53Let's pack our things tonight.
00:06:55We can disappear.
00:06:56Just you and me.
00:06:57Everything I'm doing is to give you and me a better life.
00:07:01Tomorrow's our shot.
00:07:03And no one is taking this hand from me.
00:07:20Who's the street rat?
00:07:22Car Clance bastard.
00:07:23The Jander's son.
00:07:24Heard they keep him locked in the basement.
00:07:26Right?
00:07:28Today, I'll prove myself.
00:07:33The Crucible installed 2,000 pound unbreakable steel dummies outside every gym in this region.
00:07:42They say that anyone who can crack one would get immediate access to the Crucible.
00:07:48The dummy outside our gym was split clean down the middle yesterday.
00:07:53Nobody knows who did it.
00:07:56Could it be the same dummy?
00:08:06But I didn't even leave a scratch.
00:08:08There's no way.
00:08:11Unless.
00:08:11Hey Camden.
00:08:12I heard your little bastard is on the roster today.
00:08:16I cannot wait to see which maggot is him.
00:08:19Let me guess that.
00:08:21You see that one?
00:08:22Yo, the Crucible is a proving ground.
00:08:26Not a pity parade for secret kids.
00:08:29Yo, Camden.
00:08:31You sure he's your own blood?
00:08:33Because I don't know, man.
00:08:34Maybe your maid fucked your dog by mistake.
00:08:40How the hell am I supposed to stand a chance with these still on?
00:08:44If I took them off just for this, I might actually win.
00:08:54Welcome to the Crucible.
00:08:55First trial begins now.
00:09:06First test of strength.
00:09:08Each fighter will strap in and pull that plane as far as they can.
00:09:12Most distance wins.
00:09:13He's gonna get hurt.
00:09:14He shouldn't be out there.
00:09:16He chose this.
00:09:17He's not like them.
00:09:19Well, he better try to be.
00:09:22I'll go first.
00:09:26Our first contestant is straight from Iron King.
00:09:57Six feet.
00:10:02Watch how it's done.
00:10:04Up next, Troy from Carter clan.
00:10:14Seven feet.
00:10:21Even I had to dig deep to move that thing.
00:10:24That means you're fucking toast.
00:10:26After today, those hands of yours won't be safe.
00:10:28My hands don't answer to you.
00:10:30Up next, it's Rick from Iron King.
00:10:34Eight feet.
00:10:34Let's go!
00:10:36Let's go!
00:10:37Let's go!
00:10:37Up next, it's Blake from Carter clan.
00:10:39That's Blake Carter.
00:10:41Strongest of the Carter clan.
00:10:43Top two strength in all of L.A.
00:11:07Carter clit!
00:11:09Carter clit!
00:11:10Carter clit!
00:11:13Carter clit!
00:11:14Carter clit!
00:11:22Fourteen feet.
00:11:24Yes!
00:11:25Yes!
00:11:26That's real Carter blood.
00:11:33Don't look too much.
00:11:46Don't look too much.
00:12:05He's doing it with one hand.
00:12:07Let's go!
00:12:08I'm talking first, please.
00:12:09Get in touch, please.
00:12:10Get in touch.
00:12:23Finish large.
00:12:24Let's go!
00:12:25Yeah!
00:12:27That's true talent.
00:12:28Iron King MMA is now first place.
00:12:31Let's go!
00:12:32Iron King!
00:12:33Iron King!
00:12:34How the hell is he that strong?
00:12:36My uncle snuck me into the Crucible years ago.
00:12:39I've been training Secret ever since.
00:12:41I just hope that's all he's got.
00:12:43His fight game is as good as his strength.
00:12:45Carter clan's in trouble.
00:12:47Anyone left?
00:12:48Our gym's got one more.
00:12:51They're really sending the help to help them out?
00:12:54Man, our clan got soft.
00:12:56Ten bucks says he pulls a hamstring just tying the harness.
00:13:01Come on, bro.
00:13:02You're not freezing up, are you?
00:13:04Please, take him out.
00:13:06He's not ready.
00:13:07He asked for this.
00:13:111,200 pounds.
00:13:13You wear them day and night, even when you sleep.
00:13:161,200 pounds on my body.
00:13:18If I take them off, I lose everything.
00:13:21No training.
00:13:22No future.
00:13:23No way to lift my mom out of this hell.
00:13:26So that's why I have to win.
00:13:33Look at him, man.
00:13:34Moving like a zombie.
00:13:36Walking dead ass.
00:13:38No idea why Blake signed you up.
00:13:40This is over.
00:13:47Show him what you got, kid.
00:13:48I'm gonna do it.
00:14:17Oh, right on cue.
00:14:19Trash stays trash.
00:14:211,200 pounds for the cuffs and 1,000 for the plane rig.
00:14:24Still should have been able to crush it.
00:14:26Oh, right.
00:14:27I swapped out his cuffs for yours.
00:14:30What?
00:14:31Your cuffs are pushing 3,000 pounds.
00:14:34Easy.
00:14:35Why doesn't he just remove them?
00:14:36Because we told him to keep them on.
00:14:38And because he listens.
00:14:43I can't give up.
00:15:07Okay.
00:15:08Not see that coming.
00:15:17No, no, no.
00:15:19I can't take it soon.
00:15:20I can't take it.
00:15:21Oh, loser.
00:15:23Official mark.
00:15:24Five feet.
00:15:25Last place.
00:15:27All this hype for a guy who can't even finish the first test.
00:15:29Straight up embarrassing.
00:15:37I promise you, Mom.
00:15:39This isn't over yet.
00:15:42Next trial.
00:15:44Speed.
00:15:45The car behind will start half a second after you do.
00:15:49At 35 miles per hour.
00:15:53Fall behind.
00:15:56You're out.
00:15:59Oh, come on.
00:16:01Fastest time ranks highest.
00:16:02I'll start us off.
00:16:03Watch and learn.
00:16:21Eighteen seconds.
00:16:23Eighteen seconds.
00:16:24Not bad.
00:16:34Iron King team into lead.
00:16:36Next up, Blake from Carded Play.
00:16:38Let's go, baby.
00:16:39Let's go, Blake.
00:16:4911 seconds.
00:16:50Yes.
00:16:51Yes.
00:16:52Yes.
00:16:52Yes.
00:16:55Yes.
00:16:55That's it, babe.
00:16:56That's it.
00:16:57That's it.
00:16:57Yes.
00:16:58Go.
00:17:1510 seconds.
00:17:17First place.
00:17:20How's he first again?
00:17:22First in strength, now in speed.
00:17:26Last participant.
00:17:27Jax Carter.
00:17:30Yo, yo, it's time to see if this charity case can run in a straight line.
00:17:34Only competition he's winning today is the fastest bitch who is going to start crying after he loses.
00:17:40You took less in strength.
00:17:41Might as well sit this one out.
00:17:42Save us the embarrassment.
00:17:471,200 pounds.
00:17:51But I can't give up.
00:17:53This time, I will prove myself worthy.
00:18:25I can't be last again.
00:18:27I can't be last again.
00:18:27I'm tired of being at the bottom.
00:18:30Disgusting.
00:18:31Filting.
00:18:31Leave me alone.
00:18:35You'll never be one of us, bastard.
00:18:39His mom going in this toilet.
00:18:41Troy, he smells like a dog.
00:18:43He'd shit, then die.
00:18:45Stop it!
00:18:49He's running faster than the core.
00:18:51How's the bastard doing that?
00:18:52That's not speed.
00:18:53That's something else.
00:19:04I'm going to win.
00:19:08You're trash, man.
00:19:10Just fall already.
00:19:11The cuffs, they're still on.
00:19:12There's no way he can sustain this speed.
00:19:14But why doesn't he just take them off?
00:19:15Razor told him to wear them all the time.
00:19:17Even when he sleeps, we'll disown him.
00:19:24What did you say, boy?
00:19:27Know your place, bastard.
00:19:30Time to teach him a lesson.
00:19:32Ha!
00:19:34Not again.
00:19:38Yes!
00:19:40Yes!
00:19:42Oh!
00:19:43Hope he liked the taste of sand.
00:19:59Fucking lucky bastard.
00:20:04Why is his arm so heavy?
00:20:13As expected, Jax Carter has failed.
00:20:16Fuck, I knew it.
00:20:17Look at this fucking guy.
00:20:18He's never going to beat me.
00:20:19He's never going to fucking beat me.
00:20:20Why does the Carter clan even allow clowns like this into the combine?
00:20:24It's weak.
00:20:34I'm sorry, Mom.
00:20:36I promise I won't let you down again.
00:20:40Final event.
00:20:42Cage Shrine.
00:20:43Even those who failed the last two rounds still have a shot.
00:20:47This round decides everything.
00:20:50Silas, I got a suggestion.
00:20:53King of the hell!
00:20:54My son against everybody!
00:20:56Lambs to the slaughter!
00:20:58Woo!
00:21:04None of you are making it through.
00:21:06But if anyone's feeling brave,
00:21:09step on up.
00:21:11I'll go.
00:21:12Boo!
00:21:13Go show him what Carter blood can really do, son.
00:21:16Yeah, let's go!
00:21:17Let's go!
00:21:20Are you sure you want to do this?
00:21:22Or you're just here to die, pretty?
00:21:24I'm here to shut your damn mouth.
00:21:53No!
00:21:53No!
00:21:54No!
00:21:54No!
00:21:54Come on, you idiot!
00:21:55Come on!
00:21:57Are you afraid to die?
00:22:02Get off of him!
00:22:04Is this all you got?
00:22:06Send up your bastard, Camden.
00:22:09Might as well mop the floor with your entire bloodline.
00:22:13When this is over, we absorb your gem.
00:22:16And then I make all the calls!
00:22:21Let's go!
00:22:22Come on!
00:22:22This is what happens when you let the help breathe with royalty.
00:22:28This kid, he's not a fighter.
00:22:32He's a genetic fuck-up.
00:22:39Dante, this is where you fall.
00:22:42Oh, so now he wants to fight.
00:22:44Somebody call 911 now so we can get ahead of this shit.
00:22:48You gonna humiliate us again, dude?
00:22:50You don't belong in there.
00:22:51Weren't raised to fight.
00:22:53Raised to clean up after us.
00:22:55Jax!
00:22:56Don't do this.
00:22:57You made your point.
00:22:59You don't need to prove yourself to them.
00:23:01It's not about proving anything anymore, Mom.
00:23:11They've been stepping on you my whole life.

00:28:20you were married when you fathered him his mother was a maid who seduced you you hid them lied about
00:28:29them this isn't about strings it's about honor the crucible can't take on sinners you mean to tell me
00:28:37that you're going to turn away the greatest fighter we've seen in i don't know how long ever
00:28:43because of his background
00:28:45vaughn
00:28:46i challenge this decision
00:28:49you're just protecting your family you're not looking out for the future of the crucible
00:28:54you're looking out for your nephew and that's a conflict of interest and you you know it
00:29:03to admit a bastard into the crucible would make a mockery of everything we stand for
00:29:09this is a gym that produces warriors our fighters must be perfect mind body and legacy
00:29:19such a shame kid had hands rules are rules i didn't realize iron king jim's been in bed with
00:29:27the crucible this entire time carter clan you're disqualified dip now he won fair and square
00:29:40shut your mouth camden the crucible director is on his way and if he finds you still standing here
00:29:46he'll wipe you off the mat himself nothing he aids more than a rule breaker you're not even the
00:29:52director so why the hell should we listen to you because your life means nothing when our director
00:30:00arrives he won't even look at you while taking your life away so go ahead stick around but don't blame

00:41:39ENOUGH!
00:41:42So you're the one, huh?
00:41:44You knocked her up, and then you left her to run.
00:42:20Oh, there's someone here in this gym with real spine.
00:42:24Okay.
00:42:27Let's see what you got to back it up.
00:42:33We don't even know why you're here.
00:42:35Now get the hell out of our gym.
00:42:38We're screwed!
00:42:40Oh, you want to play hero?
00:42:42Fuck around and find out.
00:43:05Come on, pretty boy!
00:43:06Is that all you got?
00:43:08Ooh, LA fighters got flashed.
00:43:10No backbone.
00:43:11Y'all soft out here.
00:43:14Say that again.
00:43:32Oh, he's getting wrecked!
00:43:34He can't take them!
00:43:49Is this the best LA has to offer?
00:43:54No wonder we've been stomping you for years
00:44:00We're not done
00:44:18Stay down, kid
00:44:33Round two, let's go
00:44:36Hey, not the shit
00:44:40Coach Jagert
00:44:51I didn't bring you here to play games
00:44:53I brought you here to finish them
00:44:55Start busting skulls
00:45:03Ready to die, Mr. Director
00:45:06After what you pulled, the crucible cut us off
00:45:09That means our gym is dead
00:45:10And if our gym is dead, so is your whole goddamn family
00:45:15You cowards
00:45:16You got smoked and crawled in the pen with the enemy?
00:45:18Me? Fucking traitors
00:45:20All of you
00:45:21And you
00:45:22You're the one who ruined my family
00:45:24You took my only daughter
00:45:26Forced her into a life of servitude
00:45:28Made her carry your bastard child
00:45:30What's he talking about?
00:45:34Your mother
00:45:36Her name isn't Maria Carter
00:45:40It's Sarah Taggart
00:45:43My daughter
00:45:44My heart
00:45:45My pride and joy
00:45:47And he took her
00:45:48Why'd she come to us then?
00:45:49Why take a maid job if she had family?
00:45:53Because I had no one left to protect me
00:45:55And no one who believed in me
00:46:00Why'd she never tell me that?
00:46:02You humiliated her
00:46:03You used her
00:46:05Then you hid her away like a dirty little secret
00:46:07And then you just walked away
00:46:09It's not like that
00:46:10When Blake's mother died
00:46:11I was a mess
00:46:13Maria, she helped me
00:46:14We got close
00:46:15I wanted to make things official
00:46:17But
00:46:17But I
00:46:18But what?
00:46:21But I was weak
00:46:23My family, this gym
00:46:24They didn't approve of her
00:46:26They thought she was beneath me
00:46:27So I lied
00:46:28I kept her quiet
00:46:29I kept her quiet
00:46:30And when she got pregnant
00:46:31I didn't defend her
00:46:33I just let them treat her like dirt
00:46:36You let them call her a whore
00:46:38My whole
00:46:39Life
00:46:41And I stayed
00:46:43For you, mijito
00:46:45He broke my heart
00:46:46But you
00:46:46You became my reason to live
00:46:51You became my reason to live
00:46:57You're not forgiven
00:46:59Not yet
00:47:01I know
00:47:02Alright, this is all very sweet and sentimental and everything
00:47:05But once a bastard
00:47:07Always a bastard
00:47:08Today, Taggart finishes what should have been handled 20 years ago
00:47:12You should have been aborted a long time ago
00:47:15So today
00:47:18I'm gonna kill you first
00:47:24Yes!
00:47:25Yes!
00:47:29She can fight?
00:47:33Whoa, mom
00:47:35It's been a long time
00:47:36Dad
00:47:46It's good to see you still got it
00:47:48After all these years
00:47:49You haven't forgotten what I told you
00:47:52You haven't changed either, Dad
00:47:55Still heartless
00:47:57Heartless?
00:47:58Me?
00:47:59These people humiliated you
00:48:01Forced you to have their bastard child
00:48:03And I'm the heartless one
00:48:05Yeah, right
00:48:06I have no beef with anyone here
00:48:08Well, even if you don't
00:48:10I do
00:48:11They took you away from me
00:48:13And they're gonna pay
00:48:14Leave, Dad
00:48:16They deserve what's coming to them
00:48:2120 years
00:48:23Gone
00:48:24Father and daughter together again
00:48:26And the first thing we do is
00:48:28Square off
00:48:29Like enemies
00:48:31Come back with me, Sarah
00:48:34Compete for the UCF East Championship in two weeks
00:48:37Together
00:48:38We can win it all
00:48:43Say yes
00:48:44And I'll consider sparing all of these people that you care so much about
00:48:48The ones that treated you like dog shit
00:48:50You want to know why I left?
00:48:54Because you never showed me an ounce of affection
00:48:57You didn't raise a daughter
00:48:59You sharpened a weapon
00:49:01Fight! Fight! Fight!
00:49:05Always for you
00:49:06Never for me
00:49:07You were born for the big time
00:49:08Raised to win
00:49:09And take power
00:49:11That's all the world respects
00:49:12In a few years
00:49:13You and I could run the crucible together
00:49:16Ever since I left Black Tie
00:49:18I've lived in anonymity
00:49:20I swore I'd never fight again
00:49:23And after the shit you pulled today
00:49:26I have even less reason to go back
00:49:32Get out, Dad!
00:49:36Fine
00:49:39Don't blame me
00:49:40Because shit's about to get real, girl
00:49:45No! Come on!
00:50:14Mom!
00:50:19You're my daughter
00:50:20You forget
00:50:22Who taught you everything
00:50:24But not everything I know
00:50:25How the hell do you think you're gonna beat me?
00:50:28Let my mom go!
00:50:31Little bastard Jax
00:50:32I'll give you one more look at her, boy
00:50:34Make it good
00:50:35Because it's gonna be your last
00:50:56Director Hutt
00:50:58So nice to see you again
00:51:00Not director anymore. Your grandson here, Jax Carter, he's the new director of the Crucible.
00:51:06And you touch him. You're clearing war on the entire Crucible.
00:51:09A little bastard like him? He's gonna run the Crucible?
00:51:14Shit must be running downhill like a runaway train.
00:51:17It's not your business.
00:51:20Vaughn, get these people out of here.
00:51:24I'm not with the Crucible anymore. I'm Black Tide now.
00:51:29You can't order me around.
00:51:32What will it take for you to let this go?
00:51:35They have another Hudson here. I can't touch the Carter clan. Not today.
00:51:40You want to protect them? Fine. The UCF East is in two weeks. We're hosting.
00:51:45I win. The Crucible gets out of LA. The Midwest and the West.
00:51:51Then the Carter clan fights under my banner. And they do as I say.
00:51:56Hey, you really think that you can take over a whole damn country like that?
00:52:00Then what if you lose?
00:52:02Then it's up to you.
00:52:04If you lose, you give my mother her freedom.
00:52:11Her peace.
00:52:13You really think you can win, you little bastard?
00:52:17You're out of your depth.
00:52:19You just don't get it. In the last ten years, LA's put together maybe five wins total.
00:52:25And that's being generous. You're chasing a fantasy, man.
00:52:28On fight day, if you manage to tag me even once, I'll consider it my loss.
00:52:33And make sure every last Carter clan scumbag signs up.
00:52:37I want to break them all. Personally.
00:52:41Let's go.
00:52:44Get out of here.
00:52:45No. No.
00:52:46No.
00:52:46No.
00:52:49Let my mom go!
00:52:52Get out of me. Get out of me.
00:52:53Mom!
00:52:55Mom!
00:52:56Mom!
00:52:59Damn it!
00:53:01Those two weren't even the best that Black Tide has.
00:53:04They went through us like we were sparring dummies.
00:53:06When we go to UCF East in two weeks, what in hell are we going to do?
00:53:11Why am I still such a goddamn weakling?
00:53:13Director Jax, the founders are asking for it.
00:53:16UCF East is no joke.
00:53:18I'm going back to the Crucible to make arrangements.
00:53:21Come by whenever you're ready.
00:53:22The resources we have, it's yours.
00:53:31I don't know how the hell I'm supposed to beat them.
00:53:33I mean, Black Tide's a whole different animal.
00:53:36Yeah, because they're juiced to the gills.
00:53:38They're running enhanced stacks.
00:53:39They're not your regular roids.
00:53:41Designer-level bio cocktails.
00:53:44It gives them more power than any guy's ever dreamed of.
00:53:46That's why you can't fight them like a regular fighter.
00:53:48You have to tap in what's already inside you.
00:53:51The guy we built.
00:53:52Half of it's already awakened in you.
00:53:54We've seen it.
00:53:55But if you want any chance at UCF East, you have to fully unlock it.
00:54:00There's only one way to do it.
00:54:02Let me guess.
00:54:03Not easy.
00:54:04You have to pass the Crucible's highest test.
00:54:08The Ascension Gauntlet.
00:54:11The Ascension Gauntlet?
00:54:12It's hidden in the Crucible's private facility.
00:54:14And it's built only for one thing.
00:54:16To push your body past every human limit.
00:54:19No fighter in the modern era has ever cracked.
00:54:22But if you do, you walk out different.
00:54:25Godway fully unlocked.
00:54:26You survive, you'll bury Black Tide.
00:54:29You'll bury anyone.
00:54:30Tomorrow, head over to the Crucible.
00:54:32You're the director now.
00:54:33The gym's yours.
00:54:35All of it.
00:54:36The resources, the staff, tech, everything.
00:54:38Don't get polite about it.
00:54:39You call the shots.
00:54:40Take what you need.
00:54:41You earn the crown that you're already wearing.
00:54:43Whatever it takes.
00:54:44As long as it helps me save my mom.
00:54:46Good.
00:54:46Because it's going to be hell.
00:54:59The Ascension Chamber is simple.
00:55:02The gases attack your bones, muscles, and nerves.
00:55:05They rewrite you from the inside out.
00:55:08Most people pass out in 30 seconds.
00:55:10And some never wake up.
00:55:12But if you fight through it, you'll wake up a brand new goddamn brain.
00:55:19Let's fucking go.
00:55:20Okay.
00:55:22Good luck, director.
00:55:39It's going to kill you.
00:55:40I need to shut this thing down.
00:55:41No!
00:55:47Holy shit.
00:55:57Holy shit.
00:56:09Hit me as hard as you fucking can.
00:56:25Jesus.
00:56:26It's like 30% of what you have now.
00:56:29I can't imagine what the rest looks like.
00:56:31Let's move.
00:56:34Tomorrow.
00:56:35It's not just another fight.
00:56:37Tomorrow decides just who we are.
00:56:40The Black Tie's been trying to destroy everything we built.
00:56:44We can't let that happen.
00:56:48You're the one who can bring redemption back to the Crucible.
00:56:51For the rest of you, protect the Carter clan.
00:56:55Jax is good.
00:57:01Crucible!
00:57:02Crucible!
00:57:03Crucible!
00:57:04Crucible!
00:57:05Crucible!
00:57:07The Crucible!
00:57:08Tomorrow.
00:57:10On our own turf.
00:57:12We are going to stop the Carter clan right out of existence.
00:57:15Yeah!
00:57:17Tomorrow.
00:57:18We are going to make the Crucible eat dirt.
00:57:23Tomorrow.
00:57:25Black Tide owns this country.
00:57:29Yeah!
00:57:30Yeah!
00:57:31And Maria.
00:57:36You get to watch every glorious second as we put the Carter clan fighters one by one
00:57:45into the ground!
00:57:51Jax is your grandson.
00:57:53You can't.
00:57:54Jax wouldn't even be here.
00:57:55He wouldn't even exist if you hadn't run away 20 years ago.
00:57:59None of this would be happening.
00:58:08These are the latest stacks.
00:58:10One shot, you're ten times stronger, faster, meaner, unstoppable.
00:58:15Let's start the trials.
00:58:17I'm done playing fair.
00:58:18I'll go first!
00:58:19Yeah!

01:03:02Something's not right.
01:03:03It's like he's just at the kills.
01:03:05Bro, the student's making it hard to fight for his life.
01:03:08Something's way off.
01:03:14Yeah!
01:03:18Let's fucking go!
01:03:19Let's fucking go!
01:03:20Save yourself some embarrassment.
01:03:22Give up now, or you still have some teeth left.
01:03:26You're done!
01:03:27New era starts today, boys!
01:03:29Black Tie runs this shit out!
01:03:31Let's go!
01:03:33Black Tie!
01:03:38Black Tie!
01:03:42You serious?
01:03:43You just dropped your former director.
01:03:45Now you want to be next?
01:03:47I just want to see what you're made of.
01:03:49Hmm.
01:03:54What's the matter, Jax?
01:03:55You forget that Black Tie just wrecked you, like, two weeks ago?
01:04:01You didn't even get stronger.
01:04:03But I did.
01:04:05I'll let you win.
01:04:07If you lick my shoes.
01:04:11You really think you can take him?
01:04:17Let's go!
01:04:17End this clown!
01:04:18Come on, Jax, you got this!
01:04:20Shut up!
01:04:21Just watch your little bastard die!
01:04:32Gotcha!
01:04:46What the hell did you pump him full of?
01:04:48It's not what you think.
01:04:50But believe me, there's more where that came from.
01:04:52If you're curious, come find out.
01:04:56You got lucky!
01:04:57You think you're hot shit?
01:04:59Go!
01:05:02I remember you said I'd win if I survived one strike.
01:05:07Yeah, and it still stands.
01:05:09Good.
01:05:11Same with you.
01:05:19One strike, you lose.
01:05:24One strike, you lose.
01:05:27Bastard!
01:05:28This isn't real.
01:05:30I'm supposed to be 10 times stronger than you!
01:05:32No way.
01:05:34He beat both of them.
01:05:36Without barely any effort.
01:05:40Is this what they mean by God weight build?
01:05:42Amazing.
01:05:44That kid's got real talent.
01:05:47Good thing they call me the talent killer.
01:05:51Ha ha.
01:05:52Go get him, Taggart.
01:05:53You old fuck.
01:05:55You don't know when to quit.
01:05:56Heads up.
01:05:57He's coming for your throat.
01:05:59Game over, little bastard!
01:06:00You're dead me now!
01:06:01Yeah!
01:06:04Why do you want me dead so bad, Taggart?
01:06:07Because looking at you reminds me of what they did to my daughter.
01:06:22You're mine.
01:06:40Not bad, kid.
01:06:42It's rare anyone survives my first flurry.
01:06:45Let's see.
01:06:48If you survive this.
01:06:52Oh, shit.
01:06:53It's that pill.
01:06:54Supercharges a death wish.
01:06:59You're a dead man, Carter!
01:07:02Aargh!
01:07:04Aargh!
01:07:05Aargh!
01:07:06Aargh!
01:07:06Jax!
01:07:07Whoa!
01:07:07Oh!
01:07:08Crouch him, coach!
01:07:09Show that little bastard a real power is!
01:07:11Should have stayed home, Carter clan!
01:07:13Ha ha ha ha!
01:07:14Get up!
01:07:15Get up!
01:07:15Get up!
01:07:20Jax!
01:07:23Get up!
01:07:38What's he doing? It's like the air is warping around it.
01:08:02That kind of strength and power, you can't shoot in your veins. That's the God-weight build!
01:08:10Bullshit! That's a myth! A damn legend! No one really has it!
01:08:14No, it's true. I've just tasted it! And now, I want more! Come on!
01:08:35Did you see that? That's not human. That's a... that's a God.
01:08:42Fuck it! You forced my hand.
01:08:47Fuck it!
01:08:59Oh
01:09:26Jeff stop
01:09:28He's your grandfather
01:09:31I thought I was
01:09:34Invincible
01:09:36I'd never lose
01:09:38Especially to a
01:09:39Punk kid like you Jax
01:09:42But you beat me
01:09:44You beat me fair and square
01:09:47No no no no no no
01:09:49Shut me up twice
01:09:50Let me fight
01:09:52Let me fight come on
01:09:53Silence boy
01:09:55It's over
01:09:58It's over
01:10:14We got a good kid Maria
01:10:16A real good kid
01:10:18We are honorable
01:10:20Black tide is finished
01:10:22From now on
01:10:23We ride or die
01:10:25Under the crucible banner
01:10:31Thank you dad
01:10:32Don't thank me Maria
01:10:35Just do a better job
01:10:37Raising him
01:10:38Than I did with you
01:10:49That bastard ruined us
01:10:51Carter clan
01:10:53The crucible
01:10:54And now
01:10:55Black tide too
01:10:56He's not human
01:10:58And no way one kid
01:11:00Does all this
01:11:01Oh we gotta find a way
01:11:06There is one way
01:11:08There is one way
01:11:09The god weight build
01:11:10It's real
01:11:11But I've been working
01:11:13On something
01:11:15What is it?
01:11:16I'll show you
01:11:17I call it prime drive
01:11:20Synthesized from nasty ass compounds
01:11:22Designed to recreate the effects
01:11:24Of the god weight build
01:11:25And then some
01:11:27But I've only tested it on rats
01:11:30They exploded
01:11:31I don't care
01:11:32Jack's car humiliated me
01:11:34Cost me my shot of the crucible
01:11:37Cost me everything
01:11:40Everything
01:11:41Whatever this thing does
01:11:44I'll survive it
01:11:46And then
01:11:47I'm gonna destroy him
01:11:51You change everything director Jax
01:11:53We'll hold down the fort till you're back
01:11:56Thanks for everything hood
01:12:05This hasn't been tested on any fuel
01:12:07Stick it in
01:12:21I feel
01:12:24Untouchable
01:12:38That power
01:12:40It's not stable
01:12:41You're not stable
01:12:43That's the point
01:13:00Nobody gets it
01:13:03Just
01:13:04Me
01:13:22Where's
