Last Man Standing

[DjM]

Last
Man
Standing

The most brutal professional wrestling match ever created. Any rules which ever existed in a wrestling ring, or even in the confines of an arena go out the window. For two men to reach something this brutal, something this bone shattering, where one man must knock the other unconcious and leave him lying on his arse for the count of ten - these two bastards must really hate eachother. They must have gone through hell to get here, but more than that, they must be willing to go through a brutal, vicious, mind numbingly painful fight like they have never gone through before. On the biggest night of the wrestling calendar, two men, thrown together by a history filled with nothing but contempt for one another battle, one will leave the arena by his own devices - If he's lucky. But the other man will not, the other man will leave, never to be seen the same way again. To the victor goes the admiration, the pride, the glory. But the loser, will leave a broken man. Mind. Body. Soul. Broken, crushed. His ego smashed to pieces, just as much as his body. There is no championship on the line, no opportunity to go against a Champion. This is far more than that, this is two men, who can no longer stand to look at eachother. One man will get his Redemption. The other, will get a beating of a life time.

The scene opens to Murphy, strolling through a dark London street on a quiet, wet evening. A couple of cars can be heard driving by in the background, but we are not looking at a main road, rather, the back streets of London. Murphy walks through an alleyway, with his hands in his pockets. There is no expression on his face, infact, he barely even looks at the camera.

That man is you, Mike Adams.

I admit that maybe I've gone a little too far here. But you need to understand from the start that I ain't the same mother fucker you've fought in the past, Mike. This ain't the same young man who wanted to prove himself against the nay sayers. This ain't the guy who deep down was desperate to gain your approval. This is a new man, a dangerous man, a man with nothing to gain...but nothing to lose. I've already messed with your family once. Do you really think there is anything to stop me doing it again? You act so offended, so hurt that I would actually go and talk to your son. You need to realise - It wasn't me who left the little chap unattended in the middle of a crowded park, in a dangerous area, where anyone who go and talk to him, or worse. What harm did I really do, Mike? I spoke to your child for thirty seconds, if that. What damage do you really think in that thick skull of yours a conversation, lasting less than a minute, could really do to your relationship with your precious child?

You clearly don't like it went someone fucks with your life. And who could blame you? Who can blame a man who doesn't appreciate someone else stepping outside of the arena, and messing with his family, or his livelyhood. That would be like...getting someone to throw you off a roof...Can you imagine what a horrible experience that would be? I can, thanks to you, I don't even have to imagine. I can remember, almost as if it were yesterday, I can remember how it felt to fall from the top of that building, my young life flashing before my eyes. I can remember the pain as the back of my head smashed against the edge of that dumpster, I remember the screams of nearby onlookers echoing through my head. But you know what Mike? I bet your wife could imagine being thrown from the top of a building too...I reckon that's something she might even enjoy, the few seconds of flying through the air, the adrenaline really takes over, and except for the mind numbing, agonising pain that is unleashed on your body as you crash land in an awkward position, and the terrifying thoughts that go through your head, it really is something that every man, woman and child on this planet should get a chance to experience for themselves.

If you think me talking to your child was so bad, you ain't seen a damn thing I'm capable of yet, geezer. I'm not in this to impress people anymore, I ain't here to show what I can do, or prove people wrong. I'm here to hurt you, I'm here to take everything you've got. I don't have a damn thing to lose, but you have everything. You have a wife and a child. You have your retirement, your days of sitting on your back side and soaking in the world. You don't have to slave away, you don't have to put up with the injuries or the never ending pain. You just get to sit in your nice, big home, enjoy your family, your free time and your hobbies. You have everything a man in this business would want. You came in, you got your success, you found your wife, you got your money, and you got out.

But you didn't get out far enough.

Because now I've sucked you back in - I promise you will not leave the same man who enters that arena. You will not feel the same ever again. You will not walk out of that arena - if you ever walk again. Your son and your wife will see you for what you really are. A fraud.

And you probably ask yourself why I'm doing this. What do I really have to gain from taking away from you? I'll be honest with you Mike. The only reason I'm willing to take away your ill gotten legacy, your family, your health from you, is because it gives me shits 'n giggles. I'm going to take away everything you've ever worked for, because it gives me a sick, warm feeling inside.

I want to hurt you so much. I want to disfigure you so bad that your family don't recognise you.

Murphy suddenly stops in an alley, and begins throwing bins around, straight into a brick wall.

I want to break your bones

Murphy then starts stomping on the trash can which is now laying on the ground.

I want to spill your blood

Murphy picks up a brick, and begins pummeling the trashcan with it.

I want to smash your fucking face in!!!!!

Murphy finally stops, he throws the brick to the ground, turns toward the camera and begins walking away again, while catching his breath.

But more than anything that I want to do to you, more than anything that I want to take away from you....

Murphy stops. A crazed look suddenly appears in his eyes, and he begins to smile psychoticly.

That little boy of yours...

Cute little fella.

I've seen the way he looks at you Mike.

You are his real life Superman. You are the biggest influence in his life, and that poor, sweet little boy is so damn proud of you. I see the sparkle in his eye when he looks at you Mike. I can read his little mind, I can see he wants to be just like you when he grows up. He wants to be the man to carry the legacy his daddy has left behind.

...That's what I will have the most pleasure taking away from you.

The moment your little boy sees you for what you really are. When the penny drops, and he sees you were nothing but a fake all along. When I break that little boys heart, and I show him right in front of his very eyes that his daddy was never what he was led to believe. That is when I will finally be happy to leave you alone. That is when I will finally stop the beating, and let our little "match" end. When I've taken the most precious thing in your sad little life away from you. When I teach your boy that his daddy is nothing, and he never was.

That is when I will stop.

So, are you ready for your Redemption?

Now, Mike, you have to deal with the real deal.

I'm not a silly little gimmick you created.

I'm a reality you were never able to handle.

I'm not Dan Murph.

I. Am. MURPHY!

I am the man who will take everything you have from you.

Murphy walks past the camera, and the camera zooms in on the beaten up trashcan for a moment before fading to black.

[Mike Adams]

Mike Adams is sitting in his study watching tapes of Dan Murph, the man now known as Murphy. Mike still can’t help but chuckle every time one of the videos shows Dan being thrown off the roof by Kayne Risen at the end of the Five Floors of Hell match. All of a sudden Mike hets a pop-up on his TV showing Dan’s new promo.

Adams: Well…that certainly didn’t take long.

Mike clicks a button on his TV and watches the promo and the look on Mike’s face is almost unreadable, until right at the end a slight smile appears on his face.

Adams: Oh Dan…that’s what I love about you. You’re style never seems to change no matter how much you may try to convince yourself it does.

Mike stops the DVD that he was watching and turns on the light and goes to get a drink of water and sits back down and turns to look in the camera.

Adams: Dan Murph and I have a long history together. Dan alluded to this himself, that he was the guy who always looked up to me, the guy who desperately wanted me to give him a rub, or put him over. But above all else, ever since I first talked to him away from the arena, Dan was always one thing: a guy I could have fun getting a rise out of.

Honestly, it’s who I was back then. I was a dick, hell everyone knows it, it’s not a secret, and some people still may think I’m a dick now. But Dan was always a guy who would come to me and if I didn’t feel like talking to him, I’d say something to irk him and he would block me from the internet or some other sophomoric bullshit and I’d laugh as to how it easy it was to get under his skin.

Adams chuckles a bit to himself and takes a sip from his water.

Adams: The funniest thing was, Dan would always come back for more. He’d decide he wasn’t mad at me anymore and come back asking if I saw his promos, if I watched his matches and what I thought of them. I’d always be honest with him, brutally honest if need be. And that advice that I had given Dan, it was always from the heart even if I gave it to him in a dickish manner.

As Dan got older and his skills improved in the ring, he could a little bit ballsier with me, when I did something that would normally bother him, he would try and bother me back. Dan would always try to get under my skin only because he knew how easy it was for me to piss him off. Hell, I even remember one time I signed a contract with a company that Dan was not-so-secretly behind simply to go there and fuck with every single person he convinced to join his fed. I think they even made me world champion, fuck if I can remember…it was a lifetime ago. But eventually, Dan gave up on that little endeavor as he always does and came back into the fold.

Adams gets up and changes a DVD to one called “MURPHY.” He plays it without the sound on and sits back down.

Adams: However, Dan says he’s changed now. If I had a nickel for every time I’ve heard that Dan Murph is a changed man, I’d be even richer than I already am.

You see Dan, you are still relying on your old clichés that have never gotten you anywhere with me. Hell you brought up me booking you to be thrown off the roof. As I recall, you weren’t exactly innocent in that situation as you were the one who brutalized Kayne Risen to begin with. Something you never learned Dan, payback as they say…is a bitch.

Maybe I’m getting ahead of myself though, I mean there are two things that have changed about the man I know as Dan Murph. One he has changed his name, for seemingly no reason at all…maybe he wanted to not be associated with the legacy of Dan Murph, maybe he’s a huge fan of Murphy Brown…I’ll never know. But the second thing is much more important to me.

Dan, after all these years, you’ve finally made me angry with you.

The smile from Mike’s face fades, Mike grabs the camera and looks at it dead on.

Adams: Do you know why you haven’t been able to make me angry for all the time you’ve known me until recently Dan? It’s because I knew at the end of the day, my life was bigger than this business. Don’t get me wrong, I love this business, and I had a great time while I was in it for as long as I was, but I always knew I was destined to have a life beyond this business. So people bothering me “at work” never bothered me in the slightest because I was still being paid to do something I loved, anyone else who had a problem with that, simply rolled off my back.

When I met Jess, I knew I was destined to be with her for the rest of my life, and I knew that once this wild wrestling life was over, she’d still be there with me. Hell when we got married, I was already mentally retired, the PCW Ladder match I had was my last truly great match and I always thought it would be, because I wanted a family.

And for the past three years, my life has been amazing.

See Dan when you first came back and said that you wanted my legacy, I didn’t even bat an eye, because honestly, I didn’t care about my legacy. I was honored when I got selected for the Hall of Fame, and you wouldn’t be able to take any of that away from me, whether or not you wanted my “legacy.” However, as you yourself said, you went too far. Because now you have messed with my life, not my job.

Dan what you’ve done will be the very last mistake of your career. Why don’t you go around the locker room and ask some people what it’s like to deal with a pissed off Mike Adams? Go ask James and his sister Sophie, how I react when people truly piss me off? Why don’t you go to the hospital where you put Cage, and ask him what’s its like to have to step in the ring with a very angry Mike Adams?

Mike’s expression gets very dark as he swallows hard and continues.

Adams: Dan, Redemption will be your last match, and I know this with certainty for one very important reason. It’s not because I will be inflicting massive amounts of pain on you. You and I both know this will be a brutal match, hell you spent half your promo talking about it. But Dan, I know something you don’t.

Pain heals.

Bones mend.

Blood replenishes.

But the one thing that doesn’t heal is pride. And that’s the one place where this match will hurt you the most Dan. Because after this match, I will still have my life here with my family. They love me unconditionally, and you’re right I am Superman to my son, and I still will be after Redemption.

But you?

You who says you have nothing to lose…this is everything to you.

This one match is your life.

You’ve been begging for this match for months, hell you’ve probably wanted it for years longer than that.

This one final match with the one guy you’ve never legitimately beaten.

This is you being the same old Dan Murph that we’ve all known for years, not this Murphy gimmick the front office saddled you with.

This is you wanting, desperately needing to prove yourself to me again.

This is your life Dan, and when I win. When I make sure that you stay down, for good. Your life will end.

There won’t be another typical Dan Murph comeback in six months.

There won’t be a new company that springs up overnight with you and the Bennetts.

No.

That life will be over.

Because I will have ended it.

I will ensure that the wrestling world never sees Dan Murph again.

And all because you had to go and piss me off.

And Dan, there’s one thing about a pissed off Mike Adams, that is dogmatic law:


There is nothing you will be able to do, to stop him.

Mike swallows hard as the camera slowly backs away as Mike sips his water and goes back to the DVD

[Mike Adams]

Sean: Dad?

Little Sean Michael Adams is standing in the door of his father’s study. Mike Adams, his father, is sitting hunched over in his chair staring at the TV in front of him. To the right and left of Adams are tapes, stacks and stacks of tapes, each featuring key matches of the man once known as Dan Murph, now known as Murphy.

Sean: Daddy? Can you hear me?

Adams’ eyes are almost unblinking as he is watching Murphy inflict violence onto countless superstars. Sean looks to enter the room but a hand comes around his arm in the form of his mother Jess Adams.

Jess: Sean…Daddy’s deep in thought right now. Probably not the best time to talk to him.

Adams speaks without taking his eyes off the screen.

Adams: Jess, its okay. I think I need a little bit of a break anyway. Come on over here little man.

Sean runs with a huge smile on his face over to his dad.

Sean: Daddy, why are you watching so many movies?

Adams: Well you see buddy, before you came along, this was how your Daddy always prepared for a fight. I’m watching matches of the guy I’m facing to look for any weaknesses he might have.

Sean: Daddy, why have I never seen you fight?

Adams: Well buddy, that’s because when I married your mom, I knew I wanted to get away from wrestling so I could spend more time with her, and when we found out you were coming into our lives, that was the final straw for me.

Sean: So you quit, ‘cause of me? But Daddy, you loved wrestling, I didn’t wanna make you quit!

Sean begins to tear up a little bit.

Adams: Hey now, wipe those eyes little guy. You didn’t make me quit. I made myself quit. I’ve had way too many friends in wrestling that didn’t get to see their little boys and girls grow up. Guys that have missed birthdays, first steps, first words, first days of school. I didn’t want to be one of those daddies. I wanted to be here for you, you and your mom are the most important things in my life, I don’t ever want you to forget that ok?

Sean nods and wipes his tears as Jess comes over and sits down next to her husband and son and puts her arm around Mike’s waist.

Adams: Besides buddy, after this match, after I do some pretty mean things to Dan, your Dad is coming home. And coming home to stay.

Sean: So you aren’t going back to wrestling?

Adams: Nope, in fact, the only reason I’m going back now is because of you guys. I need to keep you guys safe, and this is the only way I can think of doing it.

Jess: See? So there’s nothing to be sad about Sean. Your Daddy is going to make that mean man go away, and then he’s going to come right back to you.

Sean: But what if I want to see you wrestle Daddy?

Both Mike and Jess looked shocked at their young son.

Adams: What do you mean Sean?

Sean: That mean man told me that you were a coward. He told me that you were scared to fight anyone else ever again. And I know that’s not true, I know my Daddy is the bravest guy ever! And you shouldn’t be afraid to get back there and fight, I wanna see you fight because I know my Daddy isn’t a coward!

Adams: Jess…can you leave us alone for a second?

Jess: Um, okay Mike.

Jess gives Mike a kiss on the cheek and pats her son on the head as she goes out of the study and shuts the door.

Adams: Son, I appreciate you believing in your Daddy. Trust me, when I tell you that nothing makes me prouder than to hear you say that. But I wanted to tell you that you and your mom will not be seeing me fight Dan at Redemption.

Sean pushes away from his Dad and sulks on the floor.

Sean: Why not??!!

Adams: Well because, when that mean man told you that your Dad did some mean things, he wasn’t lying. Your Dad was a really, really mean guy. Your Dad did a lot of things he isn’t especially proud of. Your Dad hurt people…your Dad hurt A LOT of people, and well, at the time, he really liked it.

Sean: But why did you hurt those people Daddy?

Adams: Honestly Sean, there was no reason. Your Dad just liked doing it, and quite frankly I’m a little afraid that when I get into the ring at Redemption, I’m going to like it again. And I don’t want to become that guy again, at least not permanently. For one night, I need to be the meanest man in that arena. I need to forget that I’m a father, forget that I’m a husband, and I need to go back to that guy I was 6 or 7 years ago, Sean. Trust me, you wouldn’t have liked the man your Daddy was back then.

He was a bully, he was a guy who took cheap shots, he was a cheater, he was…well he was a couple other words that I’m not going to say in front of you, but I’m pretty sure you know what I mean by that.

Sean: You were a dick?

Adams looks at his son with wide eyes.

Adams: Where did you hear that word??

Sean: Mommy said it when A-Rod struck out in the playoffs.

Adams laughs to himself slightly and shakes his head.

Adams: Of course she did. But yes, yes your Daddy was a dick. But I don’t want you repeating that again, okay?

Sean: Okay, but what did you do that made you so bad?

Adams: Well, I wasn’t going to show you thing until you were a little older, but if you really want to know…I keep a tape of some of my, shall we say, less prouder moments.

As Mike grabs a tape from the top shelf, and puts it into the VCR, Jess Adams peers into the room quietly and looks at her two boys and just shakes her head smiling slightly.

[Mike Adams]

Ethan Frost is holding a microphone and smiling from ear to ear in the EWE Studios, seemingly pleased with where he is.

Ethan: Good evening wrestling fans! Ethan Frost here with an exclusive interview just days before Redemption. I’m here with the wife of a man making his return to the squared circle, and former PCW Women’s Champion in her own right, Jess Adams! Jess, thanks for being here today.

Jess Adams is sitting with a smile on her face across from Ethan.

Jess: Thanks for having me Ethan, its been a while.

Ethan: It certainly has been a while, you and your husband have been away from the spotlight for quite some time. First question, how’s it feel to be back involved in this great business of ours.

Jess: Well honestly, I’m still readjusting to it, and I haven’t been traveling with Mike yet, because we have to set some things in order back home, to get back to a life on the road.

Ethan: So you are readying for a full return to the road, does that mean Mike is coming back full time to EWE?

Jess: Well I think we need to see how Redemption goes, I don’t know where Mike’s headspace is at right now. And I think he needs to get rid of this monkey on his back known as Murphy first before anything after that is talked about.

Ethan: It sounds like you think Mike will be coming back full time though if you are setting things up at home.

Jess: Well, if I’m honest, I think the return to the ring will be too much for him to resist to not come back. But I could be wrong, these past couple of years, Mike has seemed so serene going into full-on Dad mode. And if he goes back on the road, well I just wonder what that would do to their relationship.

Ethan: Well it seems like your little boy Sean wants to watch his Daddy wrestle, at least from what we’ve seen in promos.

Jess: Well what you didn’t see was what happened after the cameras went off that day. Mike and Sean watched some of the video, and I don’t think Mike fully remembered what was on that tape, but it cut to a shot from a ladder match a few years ago where Mike was busted open. Sean got extremely upset, he started crying and was inconsolable for a few hours. Mike and I simply didn’t know what to do, finally we did convince Sean that it was a long time ago and that Mike was fine. The topic of Mike wrestling again hasn’t been brought up, at least around Sean, but I don’t think Sean feels the same way.

Ethan: So does this mean you won’t be ringside for the match?

Jess: I wasn’t planning on ever being ringside for that match, especially in what kind of a match this is going to be. Murphy is crazed, and I know what Mike can do when he is pushed to his breaking point, I don’t want to be at ringside to see that, and I damn sure don’t want my child to be subjected to that. I’ve seen Beyond The Mat, I know what kind of damage that can do to a child.

Ethan: Well since you brought him up again, what do you think of Murphy luring Mike back to the ring?

Jess: I think it’s really sick. I mean, I’m not sure what Murphy’s angle is here, but if its just for some sort of legacy thing, then its rather pathetic. I’ve known Dan for years, and he’s always been jealous of Mike. He was jealous when Mike got pushed in PCW really quickly both on camera and behind the scenes. He was jealous that Mike was able to do a good job of running the company after Judge stepped down, and he thought Mike tried to hold him down, when Mike was putting him in position to be in big spots. Dan even tried to be a better owner by starting up several different federations with his friends, and they were all buried by PCW with Mike at the helm. I mean Dan should be very proud of what he has done in his career, when we left the company Dan was already on the road to be a champion. Since then, he’s been a bonafide main-eventer and has won world championships and been one of the most dominant men in the industry. He doesn’t need to prove anything, and if this is only to prove something to himself, well then I’m sorry to say that he still doesn’t measure up to Mike.

Ethan: Are you concerned for the well-being of your family before the show, or even afterwards?

Jess: Well, although we have security with us around the clock, I’m not too concerned. Dan did this to get a match with Mike, granted he went to some pretty sick lengths to do so, but he got what he wanted. As far as after the match, I’m not concerned at all, and we won’t need the security. If I’m envisioning this, the way I think it’s going to go, then Dan won’t be in any condition to stalk any of us. If, however, Dan is able to defeat Mike, then he has no reason to attack any of us.

Ethan: Well, we got your opinion on if you think Mike will return to the ring after this match, but I have a more personal question for you, do you want him to return to the ring full time?

Jess: That’s a good question. Honestly, I don’t know. I love Mike with all my heart, but I know that, even if he won’t admit it to himself, a tiny bit of him has been missing. He has missed being in the ring. I mean, Mike hasn’t had to work, as we are quite well off for a while, but he took a part time job actually at WWE, as a part of their digital media department. He kept it quiet, basically because earlier that year he had ripped up a WWE contract on live television. But Mike has tried many different ways to keep wrestling in his life at some point.

Ethan: Then why the hesitance to return to the ring when Murphy challenged him?

Jess: Well I think the reason was exactly what Mike said it was. He has nothing to prove to Dan. Even though I think Mike missed the ring, he probably would have rather made a return on his own terms and not because of some asshole making threats to his family and friends. Mike is a guy who likes to make his own rules, as well you know, and this I don’t think seems as special to him as he would have wanted it to be.

Ethan: Do you think that will lessen his performance at Redemption?

Jess: Not at all, while I don’t think this will be something pretty for the fans to watch, I can guarantee, the performer Mike Adams will be there along with the angered father Mike Adams, and it will combine for a match that people won’t forget for a long time.

Ethan: I’m sure they won’t. Thank you for your time Jess, and tell Mike I said good luck.

Jess: Thanks Ethan, and I would tell him that, but he doesn’t need it.

[Mike Adams]

Mike Adams is sitting alone in the corner of the ring inside the empty arena for Redemption. Not all the banners are set up yet and the stage is only half completed. The turnbuckle pads aren’t even on the buckles yet. Adams is looking out into the empty seats and shutting his eyes, he can hear the fans cheering for him. He can hear some people chant “You Still Got It” and some people chant “Overrated” and a smile comes across his face.

Adams opens his eyes again and looks out at the steel barricade, he shuts his eyes and sees pain, he sees himself being thrown against the railing. He sees himself smashing the head of Murphy into the railing. Yet he sees all of this pain and another smile creeps across his face.

Adams pulls himself to his feet using the ropes and looks at one of the exposed turnbuckles, and shuts his eyes. All he can see is red flashes of blood and hear screaming from both himself and Murphy, yet still, another smile comes across Mike’s face.

Mike then looks back out at the staging area, and he shuts his eyes once more. He sees Jess and Sean watching on a monitor backstage. Sean is crying and Jess is trying to force him to look away. The smile on Mike Adams’ face has faded, in fact, it’s completely gone.

Adams: Is this a return or a farewell?

I’m not even sure at this point.

If you asked me a few days ago, I would say this is the start of a huge comeback for Mike Adams. Me getting back into this lifestyle for good, and going for bigger things. Starting from the bottom and working my way back up the card and all that jazz.

Jess was supporting me, Geoff was, and Sean was.

Sean.

He wanted me to be his Superman, his John Cena, his superhero. And then I made the biggest mistake I could have, I showed him that disc. Why was I so stupid to think that my little man could handle that? Why did I forget how much extreme stuff there was on that.

I mean, he’s the reason I’m going back to the ring, I need to protect him from this psychopath. Murphy’s got to be stopped so my family can be safe. But maybe what I’ve done is only jeopardize him further? I mean I know this business, I know these assholes in this business, if I get so bent out of shape because of one guy trying to bring my family into this, why would that stop anyone else from doing the same thing?

Oh God.

This has to be my last match, I can’t do that to them. I can’t put them through that.

Sean: Daddy?

Adams turns quickly and looks and sees his wife and son standing in the back. He hops out of the ring and jogs up to them.

Adams: What are you guys doing here? Sean, this is way past your bedtime young man, you should be sleeping!

Jess: Mike, he couldn’t sleep, he was tossing and turning all night. He came in to sleep in our bed and then asked where you were. So we came here.

Sean: Daddy, why are you here so late?

Adams: Sorry to scare you buddy, your Dad just likes to come here to think before a big fight. But don’t worry, this is going to be the last time, I’ve decided this return will only be for one night.

Sean: Daddy, Are you sure you’re going to be okay when you fight that big guy?

Adams: Well, Sean, your dad is probably going to get hurt a lot, and I’ll probably bleed a little bit too, but don’t worry overall your dad is going to be just fine. No one can take down your Daddy, you know that no one can stop your Pops.

Sean: As long as you’re going to be okay Daddy, I want you to keep wrestling.

Jess and Mike both look shocked at their young son.

Jess: Why Sean?

Adams: Yeah buddy, you don’t have to say that just to make me feel better.

Sean: Well wrestling makes you happy, Dad. I want my Daddy to be happy, even if that means you may not be around as much.

Adams smiles again and lifts up his son and kisses the top of Jess’ head.

Adams: How ‘bout this little dude? I’ll make my decision, after Redemption. But for now, you need to get some sleep and I’ll wake you up tomorrow and we’ll go to a Chuck E Cheese, what do you say?

Sean beams with pride at his dad as the happy family walk out of the arena together.
