The total tonnage of things I know that you don’t is immeasurable, big brother.

Becket

Fair point, Len. But one thing at a time. What’s going on with Hudson?

Lenny

Someone broke into Crucible tonight while Maddie was there alone. They think Maddie was the target. Hudson stopped him.

Scarlet

Technically, he fell. Then the guy ran away.

Max

He saved Maddie. That’s a good thing, Len.

Jace

Daphne’s hot friend Maddie? The yoga teacher with the great ass?

Max

Don’t beat your meat to images of my wife’s friends, Jace.

Sawyer

Yeah, jackoff. Don’t beat your meat? Who the fuck says that kind of shit, Maximus?

Amelia

Is Maddie okay?

Scarlet

She’s fine. She’s staying with Hudson for a few days to make sure he stays off his leg.

Becket

Are they canceling the fight?

Hudson

No. We’re. Not.

Sawyer

You okay, brother?

Hudson

I’m fine. Maddie’s fine. The gym is fine. Now everyone can fuck off for the night and stop blowing up my phone. I’m going to bed.

Jace

With the hot blonde?

Becket
