With seven wins this month...

one word to describe him: Relentless.

Finch. Finch. Finch.

All bets in, the race is on.

You gotta see this. Ryan got the first two flags.

Myles, I just want him to be okay. Just teil me Ryan's okay.

- Where is he? - He took a shortcut.

Whoo! Nice hat.

Whoa! Oh!

My God! Finch got the last flag.

I know, Kid Elvis. I was there.

Mitch the bitch. Come and get it.

- Right behind you, man. - Ain't gonna make it.

I'm going over there.

Way to go, Finch! There you go, son.

Now, there's a champion.

- Crazy son of a bitch. - He got lucky.

- That could've killed you. - What happened?

- Finch happened. - This is a champion.

A true champion. The winner, Finch!

This is gonna be fun.

That satellite feed for tomorrow's launch...

is online, Mr. Frank.

Thank you, Jacque.

- Any way you can, right? - Any way you can, kid. You're right.

- That's what you're teaching them? - Yeah, why? What's the problem?

- You must be real proud. - I am. Look at him.

Look at him. What's the matter with you?

Ryan.

- Hell of a race. - If you say so.

Look. Just keep at it, okay?

Yeah, I know. Tomorrow, right?

Yeah. There's always tomorrow.

Not the way that son of a bitch runs.

Don't worry about him. That's history. Come here.

Get yourself off to a doctor. Have him give you the once-over.

- That's it? - No, that's just for the doctor.

You'll get the rest tonight, hey?

How much you make on the race today, Reese?

There's aiways tomorrow, kid.

Don't you ever forget that. There's aiways tomorrow.

Everybody move! Get out! Get out!

Let's go, baby. Let's go, let's go!

Reese, baby, I still don't get it.

Okay, Dolores.

I'm gonna explain this to you one last time.

At the beginning of every race, there's three bandanas.

A green one, a yeilow one and a red one.

The kid that brings in all three bandanas...

any way he can, wins the money.

But they can bet on themselves and fix the race.

I toid them I'd break the legs of any freerunner...

that bet on the races.

Yeah, but I'm watching it on my phone.

That's because we put cameras on all the roofs.

And we attach BLuetooth cameras to all the runners.

And the kids eat that shit up. Then I had this idea.

Put it online and make the kids run against each other.

And boom, baby.

It takes off like wildfire.

Genius. Wouldn't you say, princess?

- You coming in for a cuddle? - Hey, baby

Oh, wait. Can you shift to the right a little bit?

- Uh-huh. - All right. Hold on.

All right. Okay.

Maybe we should be icing those bruises.

Nah, I'm fine.

Let's just lay here and enjoy paradise.

Smell that salt air?

You mean the pollution?

Which gives us these amazing sunsets.

You know, we used to talk about moving closer to the ocean.

What happened?

Life happened.

I've gotta get ready for work, baby.

Are you bartending or singing tonight?

Singing. Can you come by?

Yeah, I'm gonna work at the hospitaL and see my gramps for a bit.

- I'll come by after. - Okay. I'm on at 9.

- I'll catch a later set? - Whatever.

If that's your plan, that's your plan.

Reese. Reese.

You used to be one of the leading heavyweight contenders of the world.

Entrenched with the game of life.

And now you work for me.

Count it if you want.

No, Mr. Frank, it's fine. I trust you.

I gotta get us out of here.

Me, Chelsea, my gramps.

Get him out of that pit of a hospitaL.

Get us to the coast. Fix the boat up.

Man, I'm so damn broke.

Can't bet on the races, can't bet on myself.

Wait a minute.

I don't know. Didn't Reese say he'd kill you...

you place a bet on yourself?

Yeah, if I bet on the race.

If I bet on the race. But...

what if I deposit ali of my money into your account?

Then you couid place a bet, right?

Yeah. Yeah, dude.

Say the word. Done.

Dude, what the heli are you doing?

Dude, I'm hacking into the government's...

experimentai software programs, all right?

They have the next 200 years of software ready to go.

Check this out, look.

It's these damn congiomerates that just parceL it out to us...

- like cheese. - I'm late for work.

- We're just rats in their cyber maze. - Gotta go. Good luck.

I'll tell you later.

Would you hold still, Gramps?

Hold still? For christsake, you're holding a straight razor to my neck.

Where am I gonna go?

If you stopped talking, I'd probabiy be finished by now.

You know, I wanna lay down and relax.

Check that out. What do you think?

It's not bad. Smooth.

Did a good job, kid.

Well, you didn't make it easy, now, did you?

Nothing great came from easy.

Except great sex from easy women.

How'd I know you were gonna go somewhere dirty like that?

It shows. There's a little sign up here that says "dirty".

All right. What do you wanna watch on TV right now?

I don't know.

Let's sit here and just talk to each other for a little bit.

Okay. Anything in particular?

I don't know. Turn on the goddamn TV again.

I don't care.

I was looking at those pictures earlier today.

You spend all your break time in my room?

What? Do you come in here and look at everything?

Sometimes. Remember that day?

Hell, I remember it well.

Your dad caught three groupers.

It was a miracle. Funny.

Handsome kid just like you.

He fell off the same pot.

God only knows where we got it from, hey?

You know, sometimes, kid, a toad and a swan get together...

and make something pretty special.

What are you talking about? You're not a toad.

I wasn't thinking about me, I was talking about Grandma.

No, that's okay. She was down with that.

She understood. We kidded a lot. Yeah, she did.

So, what about that boat? Where is it?

Still there. Dry dock.

Yeah, the boat's all eaten up by now anyway.

Rats and termites and muskrats, whatever eats wood.

- But it's there? - Yeah, it's still there.

I bet I could fix it, Gramps.

I know you couid, kiddo.

You can be good at anything you want.

I just don't like you working here.

Enough of this male bonding thing.

You wanna watch some TV? You wanna watch the game?

Yeah, put the game on.

Ladies and gentlemen, another round of applause...

for Kitty Kat Club's own Chelsea.

Come on. Just here to pick up my girL.

Boss said no.

- He's a good man, Dedee. - He's a good kid...

but none of them are men, and that's the problem, Cheisea.

I mean, West is, um...

Oh, my God. I don't even wanna tell you how good he is in bed.

But do I think for a second it's serious with him?

- Why not? - Chelsea.

They're freerunners.

Just the kind of guy you wanna bring home to meet the P's.

Dad, this is West.
