Recap

Jack and Staci make love in the morning light.

Jack is meeting with an attorney about the Gully case. He knows that it’s worthless, but he doesn’t want it to be. Staci wonders why Jack can’t just apologize man to man to see if it works. He figures it’s worth a shot, even if Gully doesn’t seem like that kind of guy.

Ace heard them making love and is embarrassed. Jack wants the two of them to do things together, but Ace wants his own plan that puts wrestling behind him. He just needs a couple more days to figure it out.

There’s a woman in the ring. She’s muscular, fast, and skilled, and Crystal is visually intimidated. Her name's Tanya aka El Dorado, a mountain of pure gold. Crystal is overmatched, and she knows it, but she finally uses the ropes to her advantage. Crystal is frustrated.

Gully reminds Jack that the most-watched video on their site is of Jack punching Gully in the face, and they need to build on that momentum. Jack is reticent to get into the ring with Gully, but Gully is adamant. His character needs to be restored. He leaves the details to Jack and Rooster because his daughter won a full scholarship to Notre Dame, and he’s getting her sushi.

Jack says he’s unsure of the story, but Rooster says he just practically wrote it long hand talking with Gully. Rooster and Jack’s talk is antagonistic.

Willie chess the safe for cash, loads her bag with it, and leaves.

Diego and Bill are chatting, but Bill can’t follow his thoughts. They’re at a convention, and Diego is so excited to meet with someone who will be there.

Willie passed out on the floor, and Ted left her there all night. She threw up all over the bathroom. He will give an excuse to Robin.

Jack is struggling to hold it together since Willie is AWOL.

Thomas has a meeting with a therapist after school, and Jack thinks he should hang out with Ace afterward to give them both something to do.

Jack is putting Crystal’s photo on the wall of fame. Next, he tells them about the cross-promotional card next month. Rickey is appalled that Big Jim calls Gully a C word with Crystal in the room.

Jack gathers the troops to film a prompt for the cross-promotion.

Bill and Diego enjoy each the convention, where Bill realizes he’s getting old. He clowns around with an old friend or rival named Alvin who is happy in his normal life. He’s there with another fellow who lost his marbles as a result of the sport.

A woman shows up looking for Willie, but she doesn’t give her name to Staci. She wonders if maybe Willie left an envelope. Nope. Must have gotten the days mixed up.

Ace and Thomas stop by the shop where Crystal works, and Thomas waits in the car to give Ace time to chat. Crystal admits she’s got a lot to learn. Ace props her up. Jack’s got her back.

When he gets outside, Ace is worried that he can’t find Thomas. He dropped Tom’s crown on the ground, and a car dragged it into the highway. It’s ruined. Ace says it’s OK. It’s just a prop. Back at the house, the two of them talk about wrestling. Ace offers to show Thomas how to wrestle. Thomas is thrilled.

It prompts Ace to head over to the DWL and get into the ring. He tossed himself around in the ring. Maybe he needed to see Thomas’s excitement to get excited about it himself.

He leaves before anyone sees him.

Bill antagonizes Alvin, and neither are happy with the answer. When everyone leaves the table, the dim guy, Jimmy John, proves he’s not down and out. Bill is trying to prove that he’s not down and out, too, and he drinks the guy’s martini, hoping for a fight. Instead, he just says he always likes seeing Bill and leaves.

Bill isn’t getting off of the horse, he tells Diego. Everything in life is a choice, and if his only choice is to turn into … he still ain’t gettin’ off the damn horse!

Crystal offers Tanya some ibuprofen. She takes six because that’s what it takes to stay in the ring. She’s got no insurance, and she’s road doggin’ town to town, so that and an apartment aren’t possible since, without a real women’s league, she’s constantly on the road.

Rooster doesn’t like what Jack wrote. Jack doesn’t care.

Ace shows up at Crystal’s place with hair dye. He’s got an idea but needs some help. She’s cleaning up when Bobby drops by. She assures Bobby it’s not a big deal.

At the next match, they announce the new Women’s Division, hailing the inaugural women’s champion with her own belt. Debbie is backstage wiping tears from her face. The match begins, and El Dorado starts making jam with Crystal. She’s getting lots of kudos. Crystal gets a foot to the face, and the two are really going at it before Crystal wins the match. The crowd chants her name.

Staci sees Willie meeting with the unknown woman, handing her a wad of cash. Willie heads over to Jack, catching him up, and Staci is very confused.

It’s time for the title match. Rooster comes in with his Liberace-looking ensemble amidst boos from the audience. He calls Duffy a pissant one-horse town and begins talking disparagingly of Jack, portraying him as a bad guy who only thinks of himself. Rooster is going to get out there and grab all he can. He’s doing a great job selling the cross-promotion match.

Bill and Diego are in the ring when Ricky Rabies jumps in. Rooster and another guy go in and make short work of Ricky. Rooster then steals the belt, posing with it. The lights go out, and Rooster is still in the ring. A hooded man comes flying in from the second floor. Is this Jack Spade in a hoodie? It’s The Condamned, Ace with jet black hair, beard, and mustache.
